Asicminerexchange Hardware Purchase Agreement

This Asicminerexchange Hardware Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) contains the terms and conditions that govern your purchase of Mining Hardware (as defined below) through Asicminerexchangemining.io (the “Site”) and is an agreement between Asicminerexchange Mining Inc. (“Asicminerexchange,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and the customer identified on your ordering documentation (“Customer,” “you,” or “your”). This Agreement takes effect when you submit your Purchase Order (the “Effective Date”) and may be updated from time to time, as contemplated herein, with the most current version being maintained at https://asicminerexchangemining.io/hardware-agreement. Customer represents to Asicminerexchange that Customer is lawfully able to enter into contracts (e.g., Customer is not a minor).

Please see Section 9 for definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement.

1. SALE OF HARDWARE

1.1 Order of Hardware. The Customer shall place a Purchase Order through Site or through other methods accepted by Asicminerexchange, and such Purchase Order shall constitute an irrevocable offer to purchase specific Hardware from either Asicminerexchange or a third-party seller as such Hardware and third-party seller may be specified in the Purchase Order. Each Purchase Order shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement, which will be incorporated therein by reference. In the event of any conflict between the express terms of a Purchase Order and the terms of this Agreement, the express terms of the Purchase Order shall prevail with respect to that Purchase Order only. The unit hashrate is estimated, the final unit hashrate may be changed according to production.

1.2 Payment and Delivery. The Customer shall make payment in accordance with the terms specified in Section 2. Asicminerexchange shall also provide for the delivery to the Delivery Point.

1.3 No Refunds, Returns or Exchanges. The Customer acknowledges and confirms that the Purchase Order is irrevocable and cannot be canceled by the Customer, and that the product(s) and Hardware ordered from Asicminerexchange are not returnable, refundable or exchangeable. All sums paid by the Customer to Asicminerexchange shall not be subject to any abatement, set-off, claim, counterclaim, adjustment, reduction, or defense for any reason. Down payment and payment of the total Purchase Price are not refundable, except only as expressly set forth in Section 6.1 hereof. Refund requests based on shipment delay WILL NOT be accepted if delay is caused by the Manufacturer or any third party, including but not limited to the carrier, customs, or import brokers, nor shall it be liable for damages, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise, for any failure, delay or error in delivery of the Hardware for any reason whatsoever. Further, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Asicminerexchange, upon arranging for delivery of the Hardware to Customer directly or to a non-Asicminerexchange hosting facility, such Hardware is ineligible for hosting at a Asicminerexchange Hosting Facility or for any returns, refunds or exchanges. Unless separately agreed to between the parties, Asicminerexchange will not facilitate private sales of Hardware. Asicminerexchange cannot and does not guarantee any proposed sales or transfers of Hardware, unless conducted directly through the Asicminerexchange Marketplace, as Asicminerexchange cannot otherwise ensure proper transfer of Hardware, ensure privately owned Hardware specifications and function, or other details of any proposed transaction.

1.4 Discontinuance. Customer agrees and acknowledges the availability of the Hardware is subject to the discretion of the applicable Manufacturer, and that said Manufacturer may modify or discontinue the Hardware at any time. Customer further agrees and acknowledges that Asicminerexchange shall have no liability for any unavailability of, modifications to, or discontinuation of the Hardware by the applicable Manufacturer or Asicminerexchange’ supplier.

2. PAYMENT TERMS AND TAXES

2.1 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the Hardware is as reflected in the Purchase Order. Unless otherwise set forth in the Purchase Order, the Customer must pay the entire balance of the Purchase Price prior to the Hardware transferring title to the Customer. If the Manufacturer of the Hardware issues any coupons for the Hardware, Asicminerexchange will pass coupons directly onto the Customer by applying any discount from the coupon to Purchase Price. Unless otherwise set forth on a Purchase Order, the price for the Hardware excludes all packaging costs, transportation costs, freight, insurance, or any required federal, state, or local sales or other taxes (except for taxes based on Asicminerexchange’ net income), duties, export or custom charges, VAT charges, brokerage, or other fees, for which Customer shall be fully responsible

2.2 Payment. Customer shall pay the Purchase Price in U.S. Dollars (USD) or Tether coins (USDT) during the checkout process or according to the Purchase Order. Asicminerexchange is under no obligation to reserve the Hardware for the Customer and will be able to freely sell the Hardware to another party until full payment is received according to the Purchase Order. If Asicminerexchange is unable to deliver the Hardware for any reason, Asicminerexchange will return the entire Purchase Price allocable to such Hardware not delivered to Customer. Under no circumstance will any billing error affect the Customer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price to Asicminerexchange. Customer expressly authorizes to place and, upon payment in full of the Purchase Price, pay for such order. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR HEREIN, CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ASICMINEREXCHANGE IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON. Customer hereby grants to Asicminerexchange a purchase money security interest in all Hardware and all inventory of the Customer acquired from Asicminerexchange or hereafter acquired from Asicminerexchange, as well as the proceeds and product from the sale of such Hardware and inventory, as security for Customer’s obligations hereunder until Asicminerexchange receives payment of the full Purchase Price, plus any applicable fees.

3. DELIVERY

3.1 Shipment. Customer agrees that the Delivery Date is an estimate only and may be changed. Asicminerexchange will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Hardware to be shipped in accordance with the Delivery Dates. However, Asicminerexchange shall not be liable for failure to ship the Hardware as estimated. Asicminerexchange shall not be responsible for any delivery delay caused by the Customer, Manufacturer, or any third party, including but not limited to a carrier, supplier, customs or import brokers, nor shall it be liable for damages, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise, for any failure, delay or error in delivery of the Hardware for any reason whatsoever.

3.2 Delivery Point. Hardware purchased through Asicminerexchange, if designated by Customer, may be delivered to a Hosting Facility operated by Asicminerexchange for provision of Hosting Services pursuant to a Asicminerexchange Hosting Service Agreement entered into with Asicminerexchange, Asicminerexchange’ agents, or a third party for hosting. Customer may also have Hardware delivered to a different Delivery Point where Asicminerexchange Hosting Services will not be used. If Customer fails to provide Asicminerexchange with the delivery place or the delivery place provided by Customer is a false address or does not exist, or the Purchaser rejects the Hardware, Customer shall bear any related costs incurred (including storage costs, warehousing charge and labor costs). Asicminerexchange may issue the Customer a notice of self-pick-up and ask the Customer to pick up the Hardware itself. Asicminerexchange shall be deemed to have completed the delivery obligation under this Agreement after two (2) Business Days following the issue of the self-pick-up notice. After thirty (30) days of the self-pick-up notice, Asicminerexchange shall be entitled to dispose of the Hardware in any manner as it deems appropriate, including selling the same to another purchaser. In the event that the Customer elects to take delivery of the Hardware or instructs that Asicminerexchange deliver the Hardware to a non-Asicminerexchange approved and operated facility, then the Customer may not employ the Asicminerexchange Hosting Services for such Hardware. When Hardware is delivered to a non-Asicminerexchange approved and operated facility, Customer shall be solely responsible for the installation, maintenance and operation of the Hardware and Asicminerexchange has no further obligations whatsoever.

3.3 Cancellation or Modification. Customer may not modify, terminate, cancel, or otherwise alter Purchaser Orders, or defer shipment, after acceptance of the Purchase Order from Asicminerexchange without the written consent of Asicminerexchange, which may be withheld or conditioned in Asicminerexchange’ sole discretion.
