https://ico.wcex.co/whitepaper?lang=en 14/15

As a holder of WCXT, you're entitled to receive a share of WCX's revenue.

20% of all revenue generated by WCX is automatically paid out to WCXT holders,in amounts based on each holder's share of the total amount of tokens.

As an exchange, WCX collects fees in many digital currencies – which means thatWCXT holders are paid in many different digital currencies. Holding WCXT ishence equivalent to holding a passive income portfolio of diverse digitalcurrencies.

Payments will be made on a monthly basis. To receive payment, you can eitherkeep your WCXT in your WCX wallet on the exchange or in an ERC20 compatibleaddress that you securely link to your WCX wallet.

Your monthly payment equals 20% of the fee revenue made by WCX over thepast 30 days, multiplied by the amount of WCXT you own at the time of payment,divided by the total amount of WCXT. Payment dates for each year will beavailable in advance on the WCX site.

Monthly Payment = ( 20% x WCX Last Month Revenue x Tokens You Own ) /Total Tokens

Compliance

15.12.2017 WCX – The Global Digital Currency Exchange

https://ico.wcex.co/whitepaper?lang=en 15/15

Integrity in everything we do.

Digital currency regulation is still evolving globally. We’ll proactively reach out forguidance in jurisdictions where regulation is not clear.

If a jurisdiction decides to ban or make it difficult for its residents to trade digitalcurrency, while WCX will do its best to set up legal structures to be compliant,WCX may be forced to stop serving residents of that jurisdiction. This could resultin a drop in trading volume and fee revenue. This is a risk that potential WCXTbuyers should take into consideration.

WCX monitors and records all suspicious trading activity. Any person or groupthat attempts to use WCX to facilitate illegal activities, such as money launderingor tax evasion, will be held accountable. WCX will comply with law enforcementglobally if and when asked to disclose information about such activities.
