RECITALS
WHEREAS, Party A is the owner of proprietary blockchain-based tokenization infrastructure and associated software tools including the rootVX Chain ("Party A Infrastructure"), and uses this technology to tokenize a variety of assets, including but not limited to real-world assets (RWAs), intangible assets, digital rights, loyalty points, and other legally recognizable forms of value;
WHEREAS, Party A, has the knowhow and expertise to undertake the initial tokenization of Assets (defined below) using the Party A Infrastructure and may enable Token discovery through network partners;

- Content Usage – Party A may reference Party B’s name, logo, and tokenized asset details in deal showcases, investor materials, and partnership content across Party A’s managed or affiliated platforms, subject to reasonable care and alignment with Party B’s brand integrity.

- Nothing in this MoU shall be construed as a transfer, assignment, or license of any such Intellectual Property Rights, or confer upon either Party any rights or ownership interest in the Intellectual Property Rights of the other Party unless otherwise expressly agreed.
- CONFIDENTIALITY
- Confidentiality Obligations. Each Party will maintain the confidentiality of the other Party’s Confidential Information using reasonable efforts but in no event less than the same efforts as it uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information. The Party receiving Confidential Information under this MoU will hold in confidence, and will not disclose any Confidential Information to any party other than those approved by the disclosing Party in writing, or to the receiving Party’s personnel, representatives, agents and contractors who have a need to know the Confidential Information in connection with the receiving Party’s performance of its obligations under this MoU, and who are bound by a written agreement, to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information. The receiving Party and its personnel, agents, and contractors will use such Confidential Information only to perform its obligations under this MoU and will not use or exploit such Confidential Information for its own benefit or the benefit of another without the prior written consent of the disclosing Party. The receiving Party will be fully responsible for any breach of this MoU by its agents, representatives, contractors, and personnel.
- Exceptions. The obligations of the receiving Party specified in Section 4.1 above will not apply, and the receiving Party will have no further obligations, with respect to any of the other Party’s Confidential Information to the extent the receiving Party can demonstrate that such Confidential Information: (a) is in or enters the public domain without breach of this MoU, (b) is lawfully received by the receiving Party from a third party free of any obligation of confidence at the time of its disclosure, (c) the receiving Party knew prior to receiving such information from the disclosing Party, or (d) the receiving Party develops independently without reference to or reliance upon the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. A receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information in accordance with judicial or other governmental order, provided that such Party will give the other Party reasonable notice prior to such disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the other Party in the other Party’s efforts to obtain a protective order or otherwise avoid and/or minimize the extent of such disclosure.
- Unauthorized Disclosure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event of any unauthorized disclosure or loss of, or inability to account for, any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party, the receiving Party will promptly, at its own expense: (a) notify the disclosing Party in writing, (b) take such actions as may be necessary or reasonably requested by the disclosing Party to minimize the violation, and (c) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the disclosing Party to minimize the violation and any damage resulting therefrom.
- Obligations Upon Termination. The receiving Party will, upon the termination of this MoU or at the request of the disclosing Party, destroy (if requested by the disclosing Party) or return to the disclosing Party all drawings, documents, and other tangible manifestations of Confidential Information received by the receiving Party pursuant to this MoU (and all copies and reproductions thereof), and if the disclosing Party requests destruction of such information the receiving Party will provide the disclosing Party with a written document executed by an officer of the receiving Party, certifying the destruction of such Confidential Information. Either Party may retain one copy of all of the Confidential Information in a file maintained by its legal counsel for the sole evidentiary purpose of resolving any compliance issues which may arise under this MoU. In addition, nothing herein will be deemed to require a Party to destroy electronic copies made pursuant to a Party’s automatic archival procedures, provided that all such copies will remain subject to the nondisclosure and use restrictions contained herein and will not be used for any other purpose.
- Remedies. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique nature of the Confidential Information, any breach of this Section 4 would cause irreparable harm to the non-breaching Party for which damages are not an adequate remedy, and that such non-breaching Party will therefore be entitled to seek the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the terms of this MoU.
- The obligations under this Clause 4 shall expire 12 months after the termination of this MoU.
