Introduction and Overview
Introduction
This white paper presents an overview of ACHF and AEUR stablecoins, which have the
objective of bringing about a transformation in the Crypto Economy and Financial
System.
In the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrencies, the Issuer has emerged, offering
an alternative solution for market participants to manage the volatility and
uncertainty that often plague digital currencies. With a focus on stability and
reliability, the Issuer aims to introduce ACHF and AEUR stablecoins that contribute to
the overall strength and resilience of the cryptocurrency and financial systems.
Through the issuance of ACHF and AEUR, the Issuer ensures that users can have
confidence in the stability and value of their digital holdings. The stablecoins are
designed to maintain stable values by backing each stablecoin with one unit of the
corresponding fiat currency.
The benefits of these CHF and EUR stablecoins are manifold. Firstly, they offer a
much-needed alternative solution for crypto users who seek stability in their
investments and transactions. Cryptocurrencies have been notorious for their wild
price fluctuations, which can deter many individuals and businesses from fully
embracing the potential of digital assets. By offering stablecoins pegged to widely
recognized fiat currencies, Anchored Coins provides a reliable means of transacting
and storing value, mitigating the risks associated with price volatility.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 4
Stablecoin Overview
ACHF is a Swiss Franc backed stablecoin and payment token issued natively on the
Ethereum and BNB Blockchains. Each ACHF confers a 1:1 redemption claim against
the Issuer in CHF, backed by CHF held in the appointed reserve bank.
AEUR is an Euro backed stablecoin and payment token issued natively on the
Ethereum and BNB Blockchain. Each AEUR confers a 1:1 redemption claim against the
Issuer, backed by EUR held in the appointed reserve bank.
Means of Payment
Both ACHF and AEUR stablecoins have the potential to serve as efficient and reliable
means of payment and exchange in value. By offering stability and pegging their
value to established fiat currencies, these stablecoins can be readily used for
everyday transactions, both online and offline. Users can confidently and seamlessly
utilize them to make purchases, pay for services, or transfer funds. With their stable
value, these stablecoins enable predictable transactions, eliminating the volatility
often associated with traditional cryptocurrencies. As a result, they provide a
convenient and practical solution for individuals and businesses seeking a secure
medium of exchange in the digital economy.
Bank Guarantee
In case of Issuer default, all stablecoins issued by the Issuer are backed by a bank
guarantee issued by FlowBank SA. In other words, in an unlikely event of bankruptcy
proceedings being irrevocably opened against the Issuer by the competent Swiss
authorities, the ACHF and AEUR stablecoin holders can claim against the bank in
accordance with the procedures provided in Appendix B

How to Trade AEUR and ACHF
As part of the first stage of development of the project, direct minting of tokens
issued by the Issuer are available to corporates with involvement or significant ties to
the digital assets space. Direct redemptions are available to any token holder
seeking to directly redeem a minimum amount of tokens issued, subject to fees in
accordance with the Token Terms. Lastly, the team behind the Issuer utilized their
significant networking in the digital assets space to ensure that the tokens are
supported by some of the worldâs leading crypto exchanges and other liquidity
providers.
During the second stage, AEUR and ACHF minting will become available to a wider
group of individual users directly, providing an additional layer of flexibility and
comfort when trading ACHF and AEUR. Further, we intend to lower the minimum
redemptions thresholds, as well as the fees continuously as our project continues to
gain traction.
It is important to note that there might be transaction fees incurred when utilizing
these stablecoins, which are subject to the terms and conditions specified by the
underlying blockchain, respectively trading platforms used.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 7
Fees
All fees associated with the transactional use of AEUR and ACHF may be subject to
change in accordance with the applicable Token Terms.
Exchange and Brokerage Fees
When purchasing stablecoins from crypto exchanges and other liquidity providers,
there is a possibility of incurring exchange and brokerage fees. It is important to note
that the fee schedule and structure for the aforementioned services are determined
and provided by the respective trading platform provider. The Issuer has no control
over potential exchange and brokerage fees and cannot influence or modify them
under any circumstances.
Minting and Redemption Fees
There are fees associated with minting and burning via Anchored Coins AG. Fees
may be subject to change from time to time. Fees, fee terms, and amendments to
fees will be effective in accordance with the Token Terms.
Gas Fees
For on-chain transactions of the stablecoin, blockchain gas fees may apply. These
gas fees are required to cover the computational resources and network usage
associated with processing and verifying the transactions on the blockchain. The
specific amount of gas fees may vary depending on the network congestion and the
complexity of the transaction being executed. It is important for users to consider
these gas fees when conducting on-chain transactions with the stablecoin.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 8
Legal Implementation
Each AEUR and ACHF represents a 1:1 redemption claim in the respective currency
towards the Issuer. The stablecoins serve no investment purpose and are classified
as fiat currency-backed stablecoins and payment tokens under Swiss law. The
redemption claim towards the Issuer is backed by a bank guarantee issued to the
benefit of the stablecoin holders by the regulated Swiss bank FlowBank SA. The Issuer
itself is not a regulated bank, but as a financial intermediary it complies with Swiss
laws and regulations under its VQF membership.
In an unlikely event of bankruptcy proceedings being irrevocably opened by the
competent Swiss authorities against the Issuer, the ACHF and AEUR stablecoin
holders can claim against the bank through the trustee in accordance with the
procedures provided in Appendix B.
By using or interacting with the AEUR or ACHF, users accept the Token Terms reflected
in Appendix A of this document, where it may be amended from time to time and
updated accordingly on the Issuerâs website.
In case of legal uncertainty, Anchored Coins will always adhere to Swiss Law.
Kindly note that while we are confident that this legal set up is in line with Swiss law, it
is novel and not proven in court. Thus, there is a certain legal risk that the Swiss
judicial and/or supervisory praxis may change and relevant sections of the
applicable laws may be interpreted differently as current legal praxis does. Please
also refer to the risk section in the Token Terms for further risks and details.
In case of any conflicts with statements made within the present whitepaper, the
provisions of the Token Terms (Appendix A) as well as the Default Guarantee
(Appendix B) shall prevail.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 9
Technical Implementation
Both AEUR and ACHF are issued natively on the Ethereum and BNB Blockchain, which
follow the ERC20 and BEP20 token standards, respectively. These blockchains employ
consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Stake (PoS) or Proof of Staked Authority
(PoSA) to confirm transactions, ensuring record immutability and transparency for
market participants.
Within the Ethereum and BNB Chain ecosystems, the stablecoins are coded in the
form of smart contracts, providing them with faster, trustless, stable, and frictionless
settlement capabilities. Both AEUR and ACHF smart contracts are audited by an
independent and reputable smart contract auditor, PeckShield.
Blockchains, as established public ledgers, allow market participants to utilize
monitoring applications to track the stablecoin issuance, redemptions with the
Issuer, and other on-chain transactions. It is important to note that transaction
verification on distributed ledgers, through the PoS/PoSA consensus mechanism,
may involve gas fees paid to participants engaging in consensus activities. The fee
structure may vary across different blockchains as gas fees on blockchains are
influenced by factors such as network congestion, gas price bidding, block size, gas
limit, blockchain scalability, and market dynamics, including supply and demand
dynamics and token price volatility.
The Issuer will gradually explore issuing the stablecoins natively on additional
blockchains, broadening its accessibility to developers and end-users. However, the
selection of subsequent blockchains will be subject to specific criteria, including
technical diligence, the level of market adoption, and risk evaluation.

and words importing gender include all genders.
3 Token terms
3.1 Associated rights and form
Anchored may issue Tokens denominated in different fiat or crypto currencies from time to time, as
described in detail on the Website. Each Token represents a claim by the holder of the respective Token
(the "Token Holder") against Anchored in the amount of one unit of the underlying currency (e.g., one
Swiss Franc Token represents one Swiss Franc). The respective claims against Anchored are fully
backed by an equivalent amount of assets held in reserve accounts with Swiss banks and are further
guaranteed by one or more Swiss bank guarantees as made available on the Website from time to time.
Anchored itself is a member of the Swiss self-regulatory organization VQF Verein zur QualitÀtssicherung
von Finanzdienstleistungen. For the avoidance of doubt, the claim represented by the Token does not
bear any interest under any circumstances, including but not limited to any statutory late payment interest.
The Tokens (i) qualify as payment tokens under Swiss financial market regulations in accordance with the
ICO and Stable Coin Guidelines of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authorities (FINMA), (ii) are
issued in accordance with article 973d ss. of the Swiss Code of Obligations ("CO"), and (iii) are governed
by smart contracts (the "Smart Contracts") based on a different blockchains such as the Binance Smart
Chain or the Ethereum Mainnet (the "Applicable Blockchain"). These Terms constitute the registration
agreement with the Token Holder as per article 973d CO.
3.2 Functionalities of the Smart Contracts
The Smart Contract deployed by Anchored controls the following technical functionalities:
- Minting: The process of creating new Tokens. Anchored shall use this function in accordance with
these Terms only.
- Burning: The process of destroying Tokens. Anchored is technically only able to destroy Tokens in
its possession and shall use this function in accordance with these Terms only.
- Pause/unpause: âPauseâ prevents all transfers of Tokens until the âunpauseâ function is called.
Anchored shall use this function in exceptional circumstances only as reasonably determined in
Anchoredâs discretion (e.g., in case of a court order or a hard fork).
- Freeze/unfreeze: âFreezeâ prevents the transfers of Tokens held on a specific address until the
âunfreezeâ function is called. Anchored shall only use this function if Anchored is compelled by a
court, a regulator or other governmental authority of competent jurisdiction over Anchored or laws
or regulations applicable on Anchored to freeze or unfreeze Tokens
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 13
3.3 Transfer of Tokens
The Tokens are technically freely transferable in accordance with the rules of the Applicable Blockchain.
Any action that technically transfers the direct or indirect power of disposal of the Tokens to the new
Token Holder in accordance with the technical rules of the Applicable Blockchain constitutes a transfer.
This may include, but is not limited to, transfers to a new address, the handover of a private key in the
form of a paper wallet, or the change of ownership of a smart contract through which the Token is held.
In case of a technical transfer without a valid underlying legal cause (e.g., in case of theft), it is the prior
Token Holder's sole responsibility to take appropriate legal action. Except in case of an enforceable
judgment or clear evidence to the contrary, Anchored will treat the new Token Holder as the rightful
beneficiary of the associated rights in accordance with art. 973e CO and the previous owner has no claim
whatsoever against Anchored. Also, as per article 973e CO, the purchase of Tokens in good faith is
protected, i.e., a buyer purchasing Tokens from a Token Holder that is not entitled to dispose over the
Tokens nevertheless becomes the rightful owner of such Token, except in cases of bad intent or gross
negligence.
Anchored does not charge any fees for any transfers of the Tokens by Users (except for issuance and
redemption transactions). However, when transferring Tokens, other fees or charges such as gas fees of
the Applicable Blockchain or other fees applied by third parties such as merchants and brokers may
apply.
3.4 Issuance and redemption of Tokens
To request an issuance or redemption, you must contact us through our Website.
Anchored may, in its sole discretion, elect to issue new Tokens to interested buyers upon request. Such
purchases are subject to a separate purchase agreement with the interested buyer.
Any Token Holder may request the redemption of the Tokens against the underlying currency, subject to
the full compliance with these Terms, applicable laws and the following conditions, including:
1. Know-your-customer, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws
(KYC/AML/CTF): As a Swiss regulated financial intermediary, Anchored takes compliance very
seriously and it is our policy to take all necessary steps to prohibit fraudulent transactions, report
suspicious activities, and actively engage in the prevention of money laundering and any related
acts that facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing or any other financial crimes. Any User
that requests an issuance or redemption must meet the eligibility requirements (as defined
below), must not be from a Prohibited Jurisdiction or a Restricted Person, and is required to
conduct a complete and successful onboarding in accordance with Anchored's KYC/AML/CTF
requirements, sanctions compliance and risk country list. You agree, represent, and warrant that
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 14
you are the beneficial owner of all funds provided by you, and that all funds provided by you are
not the direct or indirect proceeds of any criminal or fraudulent activity.
2. Redemption amount and fees: Currently, Anchored Coins offers direct redemptions with a
minimum redemption size of CHF/EUR 250â000. Anchored may introduce a redemption fee
whereas such redemption fee shall under no circumstances exceed 5% of the redemption
amount. For any redemption request below CHF 250â000, Anchored may require the payment of
a redemption fee in its reasonable discretion. Minimal redemption amounts and fees are expected
to be reduced in the future.
The Token Holder is required to transfer Tokens in the full redemption amount including fees to a wallet
address designated by Anchored. Once received, Anchored shall transfer the redemption amount in the
underlying currency to a bank account designated by the Token Holder which must be a bank account
that is registered in the name of the Token Holder.
3.5 Bank Guarantee & proof of funds
Anchored is obliged from a Swiss regulatory perspective to at all times maintain a default guarantee by a
Swiss regulated bank in the full amount of the outstanding Tokens. The available default guarantees,
including trigger events and redemption process (the â"Bank Guarantees") as well as the guaranteed
amount are published and regularly updated on the Website. The total guaranteed amount as published
on the Website is based on Anchoredâs account balance on its reserve accounts with the guaranteeing
banks and updated by the bank(s) via a direct interface. As such, the guaranteed amount and the funds
held by Anchored in the reserve account match at all times (please note that there may be a time lag for
the reporting of the guaranteed amounts on the Website of up to three business days). Also, the total
number of Tokens outstanding may never exceed the guaranteed amount. Anchored further obtains and
publishes regular audit reports confirming the guaranteed amount and the funds in the reserve accounts.
In case of bankruptcy of Anchored (as defined in the respective Bank Guarantee), the Tokens can be
redeemed directly with the Swiss bank(s) guaranteeing the Token in accordance with the terms of the
respective Bank Guarantee within 360 calendar days after the opening of bankruptcy proceedings against
Anchored. In order to facilitate the redemption process, Anchored has, under its business continuity and
disaster recovery policies, made arrangements for a third-party service provider to process all redemption
claims in case of a bankruptcy event.
3.6 Use of Tokens as collateral
The registration of Tokens as collateral in accordance with article 973g section 1 number 1 CO is
technically not supported by the Smart Contracts. The legally valid establishment of a collateral on a
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 15
Token therefore requires the transfer of the Token, either to the beneficiary or to a smart contract that
supports the establishment of collateral.
3.7 Loss of Tokens
Lost Tokens can be declared invalid by a judge and replaced with new Tokens in accordance with the
procedure laid out in article 973h CO. Accordingly, the beneficiary of lost Tokens may demand the
competent court at the seat of Anchored to cancel the respective Token, provided that the beneficiary
furnishes credible evidence of its original power of disposal and of the loss thereof. The cancellation
procedure according to article 982 â 986 CO applies mutatis mutandis, except that only one public notice
for presentation of the Token in the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce is required, and the time limit
(waiting period) is at least one month after the public notice. Invalid Tokens remain in the Smart Contract
but do not allow redemption anymore. Anchored will inform about invalid tokens on the Website. Anyone
regaining control over lost tokens is required to return them to Anchored or burn them. The process
described in this section is the sole process to recover lost Tokens and Anchored assumes no liability or
responsibility whatsoever for any lost Tokens.
3.8 Hard forks
In case of a controversial split of the Applicable Blockchain (hard fork), Anchored decides, in its own
discretion, which version of the Applicable Blockchain will be considered to hold the real Tokens and
communicates this decision on the Website. Anchored assumes no liability or responsibility whatsoever
for any losses or other issues that might arise from Anchored electing to support or not support a
particular blockchain or protocol, any forked version of any particular blockchain or protocol or any Tokens
resulting from a fork of a blockchain or protocol.
3.9 Limitation of liability
Unless explicitly stated otherwise and except in cases where such exclusion is not permitted under
applicable law (such as in cases of wilful misconduct and gross negligence, or for incorrect or misleading
statements relating to the content and functionality of the Tokens), all representations and warranties with
regard to the Tokens, the Smart Contracts and the Applicable Blockchain and any liability by Anchored or
any person acting on behalf of Anchored with regard thereto are herewith excluded.

Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 18
5 Risk disclosure
5.1 General risks
Purchasing Tokens does not offer an opportunity for capital gains or any other investment purpose. On
the contrary, the Tokens entail the possibility of a complete loss of capital. This document does not
represent any solicitation for the purchase or sale of Tokens. Instead, each purchaser is requested to
engage in his own independent research and make his own decisions with respect to the purchase of
Tokens. lt is assumed that prospective Users, to the extent necessary, consult a Blockchain expert,
lawyer, accountant, and/or tax professional to evaluate the risks entailed.
The risks described herein are not the only risks that come into question and are by no means intended to
represent a comprehensive list. Potential purchasers should be aware that buying Tokens may also be
exposed to other risks of another nature. The order in which the individual risks were chosen to be
presented does not provide any indication of the probability of occurrence or the seriousness or
importance of the individual risks or their impact in the event that they occur. Additional risks that are not
business-specific and that are not yet currently known to Anchored or that Anchored does not currently
deem to be relevant may likewise have an impact.
Prospective Users should ensure that they fully understand the nature of the Tokens and the extent of
their exposure to risks and they should consider the suitability of the Tokens as a means of payment in
the light of their own circumstances.
The Tokens involve a high degree of risk, including the potential risk of being worthless or losing
their peg to the underlying currency. Potential buyers should be prepared in certain
circumstances to sustain a total loss of the capital used to purchase Tokens.
5.2 Regulatory risk
The blockchain technology allows new forms of interaction and it is possible that certain jurisdictions will
apply existing regulations on or introduce new regulations addressing blockchain technology-based
applications which may be contrary to the current setup of the Tokens. This may, inter alia, result in
substantial modifications of the Tokens including their loss.
5.3 Operational and IT risks
The smart-contract concept on which the Tokens are built and the blockchain technology in general are
still in an early development stage and unproven, hence there is no warranty that the process of creating,
receiving, holding, using, and storing Token will be uninterrupted or error-free and there is an inherent risk
that the software could contain weaknesses, vulnerabilities or bugs causing, inter alia, the complete loss
of Token. Furthermore, it is possible that the smart contract or blockchain technology is subject to hacking
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 19
attacks and other unexpected activities which could result in the theft or loss of Token. Moreover, the
underlying protocol may be subject to future changes and unforeseen problems which can affect the
proper functioning of the smart-contract and cannot be influenced by Anchored.
In particular, blockchains are susceptible to mining attacks, including but not limited to double spend
attacks, majority mining power attacks, "selfish-mining" attacks, timestamp manipulation, and race
condition attacks. Any successful attacks present a risk to the Token, expected proper execution and
sequencing of transactions in Token, and expected proper execution and sequencing of contract
computations and may result in the loss of Token.
In some applications, it may be desirable to use a smart contract to autonomously manage Token.
Depending on the precise implementation, this could lead to a situation where a malicious claim on the
Token held by the contract address cannot be cleared by the rightful owner. The lssuer cannot be held
liable for loss of tokens resulting from incompatible implementation of third-party smart contracts.
Positions in Token of Anchored and Related Parties
Users of the Token should be aware that Anchored, its affiliates and third parties with which Anchored
maintains legal relationships may acquire, dispose of and/or hold Token for purposes such as to facilitate
issuance and redemption of Token, to manage Token as a treasury position, and/or to trade Token. Such
positions in Token may lead to a conflict of interest between Users and Anchored.
Loss of Bank Guarantee
The underlying currency may be lost and, while the claim against Anchored is guaranteed by a Swiss
bank in case of bankruptcy of Anchored , such guarantee may be held to be invalid or the guaranteeing
bank itself may not have sufficient funds for repayment.
Loss of Keys
Tokens may be lost or become inaccessible in particular if the holder of Tokens loses the respective
private key to their Tokens or due to malfunctioning or incompatibilities of the wallet in which the Tokens
are stored. This could also lead to the loss of the Token. Moreover, it is the responsibility of the User not
to lose the key or password that allows access to the wallet.
5.4 Risks related to business operations
There are risks related to a failure of Anchored to comply with applicable law, rules and regulations or a
change in law, rules, or regulations regardless of the nature of the issuing authority. The most significant
areas of legislation and regulation for Anchored refer especially, but not only, to the financial market and
personal data protection.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 20
5.5 Risks related to the prohibition of distribution and dissemination in Prohibited
Jurisdictions
The distribution or dissemination of the Token or any part thereof may be prohibited or restricted by the
laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction. In case any restriction applies, each User is responsible to
inform themselves about, and to observe, any restriction which is applicable to the User's possession of
the Token at its own expenses and without liability to Anchored. Persons to whom a copy of these Token
Terms have been distributed or disseminated, provided access to or who otherwise have these Token
Terms in their possession shall neither circulate it to any other persons, reproduce or otherwise distribute
these Token Terms or any information contained herein for any purpose whatsoever nor permit or cause
the same to occur.
5.6 "Security" under U.S. Federal Securities Laws and EU Regulation or in other
jurisdictions
Anchored does not assess nor classify the Token towards US or EU laws or any other jurisdiction. Resale
of the Token happens at the sole risk of the seller.
5.7 Risks related to catastrophic events
The Token could be negatively affected in several ways by various catastrophic events and disasters
including terrorist acts, acts of war, armed conflicts, widespread outbreaks of infectious disease, major
natural disasters (such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, flooding), and other events (such as power
loss, loss of water supply, internet and telecommunications failures, cyber-crimes, fire, chemical and
biological release).
5.8 Risks related to hard forks
A fork happens when a blockchain is irrecoverably split into two separate blockchains that have a
common past. In such cases, issuers of tokens must specify which of the two chains is the binding one
and there may be confusion about who owns which tokens, in particular, when the software and services
used to interact with the blockchain follow the "wrong" chain. Forks pose extraordinary risks, therefore
Anchored recommends refraining from transacting with the blockchain while a fork is in progress.
5.9 Risks related to dissolution
lt is possible that, due to any reason, including, but not limited to, an unfavorable fluctuation in the value
of cryptographic currencies, the inability of Anchored to establish the Token's utility, the failure of
commercial relationships, legal and regulatory reasons, or intellectual property ownership challenges,
Anchored may no longer be viable to operate thus may dissolve or take actions that result in a dissolution
of the token.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 21
5.10 Cautionary note on forward-looking statements
The risk disclaimers in these Token Terms may contain forward-looking statements including, but not
limited to, statements as to future operating results and plans that involve risks and uncertainties. Words
such as "expects", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", the negative of these terms and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or
achievements of the tokens to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by those projected in the forward-looking statements for any reason.

Issuer itself.
Guarantee Amount: The Guarantee Amount is defined in Annex 1
(âGuarantee Amountâ) of this Default Guarantee.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 26
1. Guarantee Promise
1.1 In case bankruptcy proceedings having been irrevocably opened by the competent
Swiss authorities against the Issuer, the Guarantor, irrespective of the validity and the
legal effects of the agreements governing the terms and conditions of the AEUR,
between the Issuer and the relevant Beneficiary, and waiving all rights of objection and
defence arising therefrom, hereby irrevocably undertakes to pay to any Beneficiary under
the condition that a payment is legally permitted, in accordance with the provisions of the
Default Guarantee, any amount owed by the Issuer to such Beneficiary in relation to its
claim of 1 EUR for each 1 EUR Stable Coin (AEUR), up to an aggregate amount for all
Beneficiaries collectively equal to the Guarantee Amount, upon receipt of:
a) the completed duly signed original or in an equivalent form as foreseen by Swiss law of
the Beneficiaryâs payment request according to the form in the appendix hereto
(âPayment Requestâ), including duly completed personal identification and indication of
the AEUR, in relation to which the Beneficiary requests to be paid;
b) the indicated AEUR via one of the following options, to be selected by the Guarantor:
âȘ the sending of the indicated AEUR to a specified burn address ("Burn Addressâ)
setup and monitored by a service provider duly authorized in its jurisdiction, as set
forth in the underlying agreement ("Default Guarantee Agreementâ); or
âȘ the receipt of the statement or calculation statement issued by the liquidator in the
name of the Beneficiary;
The Guarantor shall choose at its own discretion the option the most appropriate from a
regulatory point of view ("Chosen Optionâ) and shall communicate it to the
Beneficiary.
a) everything necessary for the Guarantor to fulfil all relevant anti-money laundering (AML)
and sanctions regulation and obligations with respect to the sending of the AEUR via the
Chosen Option and the payment of any amounts to the Beneficiary, it being understood

1.2 The Guarantor reserves the right to delegate the tasks as listed under 1.1 to a
specialised company in line with the requirements for outsourcing.
1.2 Any payment by the Guarantor under this Default Guarantee shall be made in reduction
of the Guarantorâs obligation under this Default Guarantee. The Guarantorâs obligation
under this Default Guarantee is strictly limited to the Guarantee Amount for all
Beneficiaries collectively (i.e., the respective claims of all AEUR Holders, to the extent
they are Beneficiaries, will be added together for the purposes of calculating the upper
limit and once the aggregate amount of all guarantee claims paid by the Guarantor has
reached the Guarantee Amount, the Guarantor has no obligation to make any additional
payments or honour any claims under whatsoever title).
1.3 The Issuer is not a Beneficiary under this Default Guarantee. The AEUR, held by the
Issuer at the time of bankruptcy proceedings against the Issuer, regardless of their
ultimate beneficial owner (except for AEUR, beneficially owned by a Beneficiary and
which may be segregated in the event of the bankruptcy of the Issuer in accordance with
art. 242a para. 2 of the federal law on debt collection and bankruptcy), and the AEUR,
minted thereafter, regardless of their current holder or beneficial owner, are not covered
by this Default Guarantee.
For the purpose of this provision, the term âIssuerâ shall include parent companies,
subsidiaries, affiliates and sister companies of the Issuer at the relevant time, whereby (i)
the existence of a subsidiary requires that the Issuer directly or indirectly holds at least
50% of the capital and/or voting rights or can in some other way significantly influence
the business activities of the subsidiary; and/or whereby (ii) the existence of an affiliate
encompass any other (natural or legal) person that, directly or indirectly, controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with the Issuer, including, without limitation,
any general partner, managing member, officer, shareholder, board member or director
of such person or any person now or hereafter existing that is controlled by one or more
general partners or managing members of, or shares the same management companies
with, such person. For the avoidance of doubt, the term âcontrolâ shall mean the direct or
indirect ownership of shares reaching at least fifty percent (50%), the majority in the
voting power of a person, or having the power to influence the management or elect a
majority of members to the board of directors or equivalent decision-making body of such
person.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 28
1.4 The Guarantor shall be entitled to set-off the amount due under Section 1.1 against any
claim that the Guarantor may have against the Beneficiary.
2. Guarantee Claim and Payment
2.1 A Beneficiaryâs claim will be considered as having been made once the Guarantor is in
possession of such Beneficiaryâs written and duly signed Payment Request. However,
the obligation under Section 1 shall only apply to claims for which the Guarantor has
received the Payment Request no later than the 360th calendar day after the opening of
bankruptcy proceedings against the Issuer.
2.2 The Payment Request under this Default Guarantee shall be deemed to have been
made if received by the Guarantor at its address, together with all documents referred to
in this Default Guarantee and the requirements set forth herein.
2.3 The Guarantor shall pay the indicated guarantee amount to the relevant Beneficiary
within 9 (nine) months upon receipt of the items listed in Section 1, unless
AML/Sanctions regulation prohibits the Guarantor to execute such payment. In the latter
case, Guarantor can delay the payment until conditions permit its execution.
2.4 The payments shall principally be made on a first come, first served basis, subject to the
compliance with the documentation obligations of the Beneficiary and successful
AML/Sanction screening as set forth herein, until the Guarantee Amount has been
reached.
Anchored Coins Whitepaper October 2023 Page 29
3. Term and Termination
3.1 The Default Guarantee is valid from the date of the last signature and for an indefinite
period of time.
3.2 The separated bilateral agreement (the âAgreementâ) underlying the Default Guarantee
may be terminated by the Guarantor or the Issuer, subject to a notice period of twelve
(12) months or at any time due to serious cause (e.g., breach of material obligations
under the Agreement). In such cases, this Default Guarantee shall automatically expire
in full on the termination date applicable at that time, unless bankruptcy proceedings
have been opened over the Issuer by the competent Swiss court prior to the expiration of
the Default Guarantee and the bankruptcy has not been revoked.
4. Applicable Law and Jurisdiction
4.1 This Default Guarantee and any claims hereunder are governed by and construed in
accordance with substantive Swiss law (i.e., without consideration for the rules on the
conflict of laws).
4.2 The courts of the City of Geneva, Canton of Geneva, Switzerland, shall have jurisdiction
