Contract No.: [BITT-PA-201906029-002]

 

This Purchase Agreement (“ this Agreement ”) is concluded by the following parties based on full friendly negotiation:

 

Party A (Seller): Bitmaintech Pte. Ltd., with its principal place of business at 8 Kallang Avenue, Aperia Tower 1, #09-03/04, Singapore, 339509.

 

Party B (Purchaser): MGT Capital Investments, Inc., with its principal place of business at 512 S. Mangum Street – Suite 408, Durham, NC 27701, USA

 

1. Products
   
1.1 The information (including but not limited to the quantity, total rated hashrate, estimated unit price (“ Estimated Unit Price ”), estimated price for one item (“ Estimated Price (One Item) ”), estimate total price for all the items (“ Estimated Total Price (All the Items) ”) of Products purchased by Party B from Party A is as follows (“ Products ”):

 

No.   Product Name   Model   Rated Hashrate (TH/s)     Rated Power Consumption (W)     Estimated Unit Price
(USD)
    Quantity     Estimated Price
(One Item)
 
1   Antminer   S17             53       2,385±7 %       2,517.00       1,100              
Total Rated Hashrate (TH/s)     58,300  
Estimated Total Price
(All the Items)
    USD $2,768,700.00  

 

1.2 Where the actual Products provided by Party A are not in accordance with the description listed in Article 1.1, in the event that the total hashrate of the Products delivered to Party B is not less than the total rated hashrate provided in Article 1.1, the number of the Products can be adjusted based on the actual type of the Products before delivery.
   
1.3 Before the Products are delivered, both Parties shall confirm the actual delivered Products through signing an updated Sales and Purchase Agreement (hereinafter “ Updated Agreement ”, the Updated Agreement shall include a purchase order (“ Purchase Oder ”) with the information such as the types, quantity, unit price, total price, service fees, transportation mode and delivery address, etc. of the delivered Products).

 

    1

 

 

2. Price, Discount and Payment
   
2.1 Party A provides the corresponding discount (“ Agreed Discount ”) in accordance with the delivery period (“ Delivery Period ”) of the Products and the proportion of advance payment (“ Advance Payment ”) accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items) of the Products. The formula for calculating the Agreed Discount is:

 

 

among them:

 

D is the Agreed Discount percentage.

 

N is the Delivery Period provided in this Agreement calculated by the number of days, i.e., Party A shall deliver the Products to the carrier within the agreed period after Party B pays the Advance Payment. For example, if Party B pays the Advance Payment on June 10, 2019, and the Delivery Period is 120 days, Party A shall deliver the Products to the carrier before October 8, 2019. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the actual delivery period is inconsistent with the Delivery Period provided in this Agreement, the Agreed Discount shall still be the discount listed in Article 2.2.

 

P is the proportion of the Advance Payment paid by Party B accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items) of the Products.

 

2.2 The Delivery Period, Advance Payment, proportion of the Advance Payment accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items), Agreed Discount and other information are as follows:

 

Delivery Period: 120 days

Advance Payment: USD $ 1,384,350.00

Proportion of the Advance Payment accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items): 50%

Agreed Discount percentage: 4.5%

 

2.3 Both Parties agree and confirm that the Estimated Unit Price of the Products provided in Article 1.1 is not the actual transaction unit price (the “ Actual Transaction Unit Price ”) of the Products, and the Actual Transaction Unit Price shall be calculated according to the actual market unit price, i.e., Actual Transaction Unit Price = actual market unit price × (100% - Agreed Discount percentage). The actual market unit price of the Products shall be decided by Party A according to the market conditions then. For the avoidance of doubt, as for the Products explicitly listed in Article 1.1 of this Agreement, Party A undertakes that the Actual Transaction Unit Price shall not exceed the Estimated Unit Price as stipulated in Article 1.1.

 

    2

 

 

2.4 In the case that the Actual Transaction Unit Price is lower than the Estimated Unit Price of the Products, Party B may choose to increase the quantity of the Products. In this scenario, the total purchase price of the Products (after increasing the product quantity) shall not exceed the Estimated Price (One Item) under Article 1.1. Alternatively, Party B may choose to keep the quantity of the Products unchanged. In this scenario, Party A shall return the remaining Advance Payment to Party B within [10] working days after Parties sign the Updated Agreement.
   
2.5 Both Parties confirm that if the Advance Payment is less than the total purchase price of the Products calculated based on the Actual Transaction Unit Price, Party B shall pay Party A the remaining amount for the Products according to the Purchase Order(s) concluded by both Parties. The remaining amount shall be:

 

∑Actual Transaction Unit Price ×quantity of the Products – Advance Payment. In the event that Party B shall pay the remaining amount for the Products but it fails to make the payment within [5] working days before the delivery date, Party A shall still deliver the Products according to the delivery date stipulated in this Agreement. The quantity shall be calculated based on payment already paid by Party B and the Actual Transaction Unit Price.

 

2.6 Party A’s bank account information is as follows:

 

Bank:

Account Name:

Account No.:

 

2.7 The currency under this agreement is USD.
   
3. Delivery
   
3.1 Party A shall deliver the Products within the Delivery Period as provided in this Agreement. In the event that Party A fails to deliver the Products within the Delivery Period and delivers the Products within 30 days after Delivery Period, Party B shall continue to perform this Agreement, and Party A shall provide Party B with an additional discount (“ Additional Discount ”) for the delayed delivery. The Additional Discount shall be calculated as the formula below:

 

De=Nd×0.1%×P

 

among them:

 

De is the Additional Discount;

Nd is the number of delayed delivery days;

P is the proportion of the Advance Payment paid by Party B accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items) of the Products;

In this circumstance, the Actual Transaction Unit Price provided in Article 2.3 of this Agreement shall be calculated as the formula below: Actual Transaction Unit Price = actual market unit price × (100%- Agreed Discount - Additional Discount).

 

    3

 

 

3.2 In the event that Party A has not delivered the Products within 30 days after the Delivery Period, either Party is entitled to terminate this Agreement by issuing the other Party a written notice before Party A delivers the Products. Within 10 working days after this Agreement is terminated, Party A shall return the Advance Payment, and pay the liquidated damages to Party B. The amount of liquidated amount shall be: Advance Payment × 0.03333% × the number of days from the date when Party B makes its Advance Payment (excluding the current day) to the date when Party A returns the Advance Payment (including the current day).

 

In the event that both Parties have not received written notice from the other Party requesting termination of this Agreement before delivery of the Products, this Agreement shall continue to be performed. In this scenario, without prejudice to Article 3.1, the additional discount provided by Party A to Party B shall be: De = 3% × P

 

among them:

 

De is the additional discount;

P is the proportion of the Advance Payment paid by Party B accounting for the Estimated Total Price (All the Items) of the Products.

In this case, the Actual Transaction Unit Price stipulated in Article 2.3 of this Agreement shall be calculated as follows:

Actual Transaction Unit Price = actual market unit price × (100% - Agreed Discount - 3% ×P).

 

4. Purchase Cancellation
   
4.1 Before the Parties sign the Updated Agreement, Party B may, at any time, send a written notice to Party A (the “ Cancellation Notice ”) to cancel the purchase of some or all of the Products. After Party A receives the Cancellation Notice, the remaining Advance Payment shall be dealt with in accordance with Article 4.2 of this Agreement.
   
4.2 The Parties agree that, except as otherwise agreed in this Agreement, the remaining Advance Payment shall be dealt with as follows:

 

(1) Party B may use part or all of the remaining Advance Payment to purchase any of Party A’s products which are not provided in this Agreement.
     
(2) In case that within three working days after Party A receives the Cancellation Notice, Party A and Party B separately sign Updated Agreement and/or Purchase Order, providing that Party B shall order or purchase the newly issued products of Party A after the effective date of this Agreement, whose algorithm is the same as the Products listed in Article 1.1, Party B may still enjoy the discount agreed under this Agreement (including the Agreed Discount, and the Additional Discount on the condition that the requirements under Article 3 are met). In addition to the above, no matter what products of Party A are purchased by Party B using the remaining amount of the Advance Payment, Party B shall not enjoy any Agreed Discount and/or Additional Discount under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise provided in Article 4.2 (2), once Party A receives the Cancellation Notice, Party B will no longer enjoy any discount (including the Agreed Discount and/or Additional Discount) even if it purchases the Products under this Agreement again.

 

    4
