The Company, the Distributor and their respective affiliates would develop and contribute to the underlying source code for MantaStarter.

Token Documentation

Nothing in the Litepaper or the Website constitutes any offer by the Company, the Distributor, or the MantaStarter team to sell any $MSTR (as defined herein) nor shall it or any part of it nor the fact of its presentation form the basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, any contract or investment decision. Nothing contained in the Litepaper or the Website is or may be relied upon as a promise, representation or undertaking as to the future performance of MantaStarter. The agreement between the Distributor (or any third party) and you, in relation to any distribution or transfer of $MSTR, is to be governed only by the separate terms and conditions of such agreement.

The information set out in the Litepaper and the Website is for community discussion only and is not legally binding.

The agreement for distribution of $MSTR and/or continued holding of $MSTR shall be governed by a separate set of Terms and Conditions or Token Distribution Agreement (as the case may be) setting out the terms of such distribution and/or continued holding of $MSTR (the Terms and Conditions), which shall be separately provided to you or made available on the Website. The Terms and Conditions must be read together with the Litepaper. In the event of any inconsistencies between the Terms and Conditions and the Litepaper or the Website, the Terms and Conditions shall prevail.

Deemed Representations and Warranties

$MSTR Token

The native cryptographically-secured fungible protocol token of MantaStarter (ticker symbol $MSTR) is a transferable representation of attributed governance and utility functions specified in the protocol/code of MantaStarter, and which is designed to be used solely as an interoperable utility token thereon.

$MSTR provides the economic incentives which will be distributed to encourage users to exert efforts towards contribution and participation in the ecosystem on MantaStarter, thereby creating a mutually beneficial system where every participant is fairly compensated for its efforts. $MSTR is an integral and indispensable part of MantaStarter, because without $MSTR, there would be no incentive for users to expend resources to participate in activities or provide services for the benefit of the entire ecosystem on MantaStarter. Given that additional $MSTR will be awarded to a user based only on its actual usage, activity and efforts made on MantaStarter and/or proportionate to the frequency and volume of transactions, users of MantaStarter and/or holders of $MSTR which did not actively participate will not receive any $MSTR incentives.

In order to promote decentralised community governance for the network, $MSTR would allow holders to create and vote on on-chain governance proposals to determine future features and/or parameters of MantaStarter (e.g. projects overlooked by the FS team but well-liked by the community can be picked up through governance as Token & NFT holders use their voting power to champion the projects they believe in). For the avoidance of doubt, the right to vote is restricted solely to voting on features of MantaStarter; it does not entitle $MSTR holders to vote on the operation and management of the Company, its affiliates, or their assets or the disposition of such assets to token holders, or select the board of directors of these entities, or determine the development direction of these entities, does not constitute any equity interest in any of these entities or any collective investment scheme; the arrangement is not intended to be any form of joint venture or partnership.

$MSTR does not in any way represent any shareholding, participation, right, title, or interest in the Company, the Distributor, their respective affiliates, or any other company, enterprise or undertaking, nor will $MSTR entitle token holders to any promise of fees, dividends, revenue, profits or investment returns, and are not intended to constitute securities in Singapore or any relevant jurisdiction. $MSTR may only be utilised on MantaStarter, and ownership of $MSTR carries no rights, express or implied, other than the right to use $MSTR as a means to enable usage of and interaction within MantaStarter. In particular, it is highlighted that $MSTR:

1. does not have any tangible or physical manifestation, and does not have any intrinsic value (nor does any person make any representation or give any commitment as to its value);
2. is non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash (or its equivalent value in any other digital asset) or any payment obligation by the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates;
3. does not represent or confer on the token holder any right of any form with respect to the Company, the Distributor (or any of their respective affiliates), or its revenues or assets, including without limitation any right to receive future dividends, revenue, shares, ownership right or stake, share or security, any voting, distribution, redemption, liquidation, proprietary (including all forms of intellectual property or licence rights), right to receive accounts, financial statements or other financial data, the right to requisition or participate in shareholder meetings, the right to nominate a director, or other financial or legal rights or equivalent rights, or intellectual property rights or any other form of participation in or relating to MantaStarter, the Company, the Distributor and/or their service providers;
4. is not intended to represent any rights under a contract for differences or under any other contract the purpose or pretended purpose of which is to secure a profit or avoid a loss;
5. is not intended to be a representation of money (including electronic money), security, commodity, bond, debt instrument, unit in a collective investment scheme or any other kind of financial instrument or investment;
6. is not a loan to the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates, is not intended to represent a debt owed by the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates, and there is no expectation of profit; and
7. does not provide the token holder with any ownership or other interest in the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates.

Notwithstanding the $MSTR distribution, users have no economic or legal right over or beneficial interest in the assets of the Company, the Distributor, or any of their affiliates after the token distribution.

To the extent a secondary market or exchange for trading $MSTR does develop, it would be run and operated wholly independently of the Company, the Distributor, the distribution of $MSTR and MantaStarter. Neither the Company nor the Distributor will create such secondary markets nor will either entity act as an exchange for $MSTR.
