Wield Contributor Agreement

1. Parties

This Contributor Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into between:

Vipas Ventures MB, incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, with company code 306998929 and registered office at Konstitucijos pr. 12, LT-09308 Vilnius, Lithuania, trading under the name Wield ("Wield", "we", "us", or "our"); and

the Contributor, an individual identified at the time of acceptance, who is a resident of the Republic of India for the purposes of Indian tax and exchange control law.

Wield and the Contributor are each a "Party" and together the "Parties."

2. Background

2.1 Wield operates a proprietary software platform on which individuals work with live market data, develop and express market views, and receive analytics and feedback on how those views perform against actual market movements.

2.2 Wield wishes to engage the Contributor, on the terms of this Agreement, to provide market-analysis and research services. Wield procures and uses the analysis the Contributor provides for genuine business purposes, including refining its models, conducting market-behaviour research, and developing its products. That use is the value Wield receives under this Agreement.

2.3 The Contributor wishes to provide those services and to be paid the Service Fees set out in Section 6.

2.4 This Agreement is a standalone professional-services agreement. It is separate from the Wield Terms & Conditions that govern a customer's purchase of Platform Access, and it is not a continuation of any purchase.

2.5 For the purposes of any payment partner facilitating Service Fees: under this Agreement Wield — a non-resident entity incorporated in Lithuania — is the customer procuring professional services, and the Contributor — an individual resident in India — is the independent provider of those services. Service Fees payable under this Agreement are consideration for professional services rendered by the Contributor to Wield, and are received by the Contributor as professional-services income. This characterisation is given full effect in Sections 6, 8, and 9.

3. Definitions

In this Agreement, capitalised terms have the meanings set out below. This Agreement is intended to be read on its own.

"Agreement" means this Contributor Agreement, including all schedules and annexes.

"Assessed Analytical Value" means the assessed value of the market analysis the Contributor provides, determined by how accurately the market views the Contributor expresses on the Platform anticipate actual market movements over the relevant period, computed against the reference scale and method set out in the Engagement Schedule. Assessed Analytical Value is a measure of the value of the Contributor's analysis to Wield.

"Contributor" means the individual party to this Agreement.

"Engagement Schedule" means the schedule of operational terms — including the reference scale, the method for computing Assessed Analytical Value, the applicable Service Fee rate, the activity requirements, and the rules that apply to the Contributor's use of the Platform — provided to the Contributor at the time of acceptance and forming part of this Agreement.

"Identity-Verification Provider" means the third-party identity-verification and onboarding provider Wield uses from time to time to verify Contributor identity and collect the information required under Section 7.

"INR" means Indian Rupees.

"Platform" or "Wield Platform" means Wield's proprietary software environment and the interfaces through which it is delivered, on which the Contributor performs the Services.

"Service Fee" means the fee Wield pays the Contributor for the analysis the Contributor provides, calculated in accordance with Section 6.

"Services" means the market-analysis and research services described in Section 4.

"Wield" means Vipas Ventures MB, trading under the name Wield.

"Xflow" means Xflow Payments Private Limited, the Reserve Bank of India-authorised cross-border payment partner Wield uses to pay Service Fees.

4. Engagement and Services

4.1 Engagement

Wield engages the Contributor, and the Contributor accepts engagement, as an independent professional-services contractor providing the Services described in this Section 4.

4.2 Description of Services

The Services consist of:

• Analysing market data and market conditions
• Forming and expressing market views on the Platform — directional views, timing, and related judgments — based on the Contributor's own analysis
• Maintaining an active analytical contribution on the Platform in accordance with the activity requirements set out in the Engagement Schedule
• Producing, through this activity, the market analysis and research that Wield procures and uses for the business purposes described in Section 2.2

4.3 How the Services are performed

The Contributor performs the Services:

• Using the Contributor's own equipment, internet connection, and analytical tools
• At times and from locations of the Contributor's own choosing, subject to the activity requirements in the Engagement Schedule
• According to the Contributor's own analysis, methodology, and judgment
• Without supervision, instruction, or direction from Wield as to the substance of the analysis, except for compliance with this Agreement and the Engagement Schedule

4.4 Standards of performance

The Contributor will perform the Services with reasonable professional skill and care, in good faith, and in compliance with this Agreement, the Wield Acceptable Use Policy, and applicable law. The Contributor is responsible for the quality of the analysis provided.

4.5 Wield's use of the analysis

Wield procures and genuinely uses the analysis the Contributor provides for the business purposes described in Section 2.2. That use is the consideration Wield receives under this Agreement and the basis on which Service Fees are paid. The Assessed Analytical Value reflects the value of the Contributor's analysis to Wield.

4.6 Non-exclusivity

This Agreement is non-exclusive. Wield may engage other contributors to provide similar services. The Contributor may provide similar services to other parties, except where doing so creates a conflict of interest with this Agreement or breaches the confidentiality obligations in Section 12.

5. The Platform

5.1 Provision of the Platform

On execution of this Agreement, Wield provides the Contributor with access to the Platform. The Platform is the environment in which the Contributor performs the Services and in which the Contributor's analysis is recorded and its Assessed Analytical Value determined. The Platform operates on market data processed through Wield's proprietary engine. No real assets are bought, sold, or held on the Platform, and no order placed on the Platform reaches any market or exchange.

5.2 Specifications

The reference scale, the method for computing Assessed Analytical Value, the activity requirements, and the rules that apply to the Contributor's use of the Platform are set out in the Engagement Schedule. The Engagement Schedule applies to the Contributor's specific engagement and prevails over any general description on the Platform in the event of inconsistency.

5.3 Engagement rules

The Engagement Schedule sets out the rules that apply to the Contributor's use of the Platform. If the Contributor breaches a terminating rule set out in the Engagement Schedule, the Contributor's current engagement on the Platform ends. Service Fees accrued and not yet paid up to that point are paid in accordance with Sections 6 and 8. The Contributor may be offered a new engagement on terms separately offered by Wield.

5.4 Reference-scale progression

The Engagement Schedule may provide for progression of the reference scale where the Contributor sustains a defined standard of Assessed Analytical Value over a defined period. Progression is a recognition of demonstrated analytical contribution; the applicable Service Fee rate continues to apply at the progressed scale. The specific standard and period are set out in the Engagement Schedule.

6. Service Fees

6.1 Basis of the Service Fee

Wield procures the Contributor's market analysis and pays the Contributor a Service Fee for it. The Service Fee is calculated by applying the applicable rate set out below to the Assessed Analytical Value of the Contributor's analysis for the relevant period.

The applicable rates are:

The rate is fixed at the reference scale set out in the Engagement Schedule. The portion not paid to the Contributor (20% or 22% respectively) is consideration retained by Wield for the proprietary Platform, the market data, the analytics and assessment infrastructure, the payment processing, and the operational support through which the Contributor produces and Wield evaluates the analysis. In substance, the Contributor supplies the analytical input and Wield supplies the infrastructure through which that input is produced and made valuable; the rate reflects that two-sided contribution.

The Service Fee is the price Wield pays for the analysis it procures and uses, and the Assessed Analytical Value is the measure of that analysis's value to Wield.

6.2 First Service Fee payment

The Contributor may request the first Service Fee payment after completing the minimum activity period set out in the Engagement Schedule. The minimum activity period ensures a sufficient basis for assessing the value of the Contributor's analysis.

6.3 Subsequent payments

After the first payment, the Contributor may request Service Fee payments on demand, subject to:

• A positive Assessed Analytical Value available for payment
• The Contributor remaining in good standing under this Agreement and the Engagement Schedule
• Operational processing time

6.4 Currency

Assessed Analytical Value is computed in the reference currency set out in the Engagement Schedule (USD) and the Service Fee is converted to INR at the prevailing exchange rate available to Xflow at the time the payment is initiated. The conversion rate is provided to the Contributor at the time of each payment.

6.5 No minimum

The Service Fee reflects the assessed value of the Contributor's actual analysis. There is no minimum, guaranteed, or fixed Service Fee. The Service Fee is not paid in advance, on a periodic basis independent of contribution, or as a retainer.

6.6 Full consideration

A Service Fee paid in accordance with this Section 6 is the full and final consideration for the Services performed during the period to which it relates. The Contributor is not entitled to any other payment, allowance, or benefit from Wield in respect of the Services, except as expressly set out elsewhere in this Agreement.

7. Identity verification and compliance

7.1 Verification required before payment

Before Wield pays any Service Fee, the Contributor must complete Wield's identity-verification and compliance onboarding. Wield conducts this through its Identity-Verification Provider. Completion of verification is a condition of payment, not of performing the Services.

7.2 Information the Contributor provides

The Contributor will provide, and authorises Wield and the Identity-Verification Provider to collect and verify, the following:

7.2.1 Identity and regulatory data.

• Permanent Account Number (PAN), together with a clear image or PDF of the PAN card
• Full legal name exactly as it appears on the PAN card and the Contributor's bank account
• A government-issued photo identity document (passport, Aadhaar, or driving licence) sufficient to verify identity and address

7.2.2 Indian banking details.

• Bank account number (the Contributor's active savings or current account)
• IFSC (the 11-character code of the Contributor's bank branch)
• Account type (personal/savings or business/current)

7.2.3 Aadhaar handling. Where the Contributor uses Aadhaar as the photo identity document, Wield and the Identity-Verification Provider store only a masked Aadhaar or a verification reference, and do not retain the Contributor's full Aadhaar number.

7.3 Sanctions screening

Wield screens the Contributor against applicable sanctions and restricted-party lists, including those administered by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control, the European Union, the United Nations, the Republic of Lithuania, and India. A positive match, or the Contributor becoming subject to such measures, disqualifies the Contributor from payment and is grounds for termination under Section 14.

7.4 Enhanced due diligence and source of funds

Where Wield's risk assessment requires it, or where cumulative Service Fees to the Contributor in any 12-month period reach or exceed the equivalent of EUR 1,000, Wield (or the Identity-Verification Provider or Xflow on Wield's behalf) may request enhanced due-diligence information, including information relevant to source of funds, to satisfy obligations under Lithuanian, EU, and Indian anti-money-laundering and cross-border-payment law. Failure to provide requested information may result in suspension of payment until the information is provided.

7.5 Data sharing and consent

The Contributor consents to Wield sharing the information collected under this Section 7 with the Identity-Verification Provider and with Xflow, for the purposes of identity verification, regulatory compliance, and processing Service Fee payments, in accordance with the Wield Privacy Policy. The Identity-Verification Provider and Xflow each process this information as set out in the Privacy Policy. The Contributor's information must be accurate, complete, and current.

8. Payment of Service Fees through Xflow

8.1 Use of Xflow

Wield uses Xflow as its cross-border payment partner for INR Service Fee payments to Contributors. Xflow holds Payment Aggregator – Cross Border authorisation from the Reserve Bank of India and processes the payments under that regulatory framework.

8.2 Contributor's authorisations

To make payment through Xflow possible while preserving an integrated platform experience, the Contributor authorises Wield as follows:

8.2.1 Limited agency for payment. The Contributor appoints Wield as the Contributor's limited agent for the sole purposes of submitting the Contributor's information to Xflow through Xflow's platform APIs, initiating Service Fee payments to the Contributor through Xflow on the Contributor's behalf as the legal recipient, and receiving and retrieving the electronic Foreign Inward Remittance Advice (eFIRA) Xflow generates for each payment. This limited agency does not extend beyond these purposes.

8.2.2 Legal counterparty structure. The Contributor acknowledges that:

• For Indian foreign-exchange (FEMA) and tax purposes, the Contributor is the Indian-resident service provider and Wield (Vipas Ventures MB, Lithuania) is the foreign customer paying for the Services
• Each payment is documented as inward remittance of professional-services income, under a services purpose code (purpose code P0802, or such other applicable services/information-technology purpose code), and the eFIRA is issued in the Contributor's name with the Contributor's PAN
• The legal flow of the payment is from Wield (foreign customer) to the Contributor (Indian-resident service provider), facilitated by Xflow as Wield's payment partner, settling into the Contributor's Indian bank account

8.3 Service record and documentation

For each Service Fee payment, Wield generates and makes available to the Contributor:

• A service record documenting the analysis the Contributor provided for the period and its Assessed Analytical Value — the record on which the Service Fee, and the characterisation of the payment as professional-services income, is based
• An invoice or equivalent record reflecting the Service Fee for the analysis provided
• The eFIRA generated by Xflow
• A record of the Service Fee calculation, the FX rate, the INR amount, the payment timestamp, and the bank-side reference

The service record, invoice, purpose code, and eFIRA describe the payment as consideration for professional services (market analysis and research).

8.4 Processing time

Wield's processing time from the Contributor's request to Xflow disbursement is typically under 24 hours. Bank-side settlement is governed by Indian banking timelines and is not within Wield's or Xflow's control.

9. Tax responsibility

9.1 Contributor's sole responsibility

The Contributor is solely responsible for:

• Determining the correct tax treatment of Service Fees under Indian law and the Contributor's individual circumstances
• Filing all Indian tax returns reflecting Service Fees received
• Paying any income tax, GST, or other taxes due under applicable law
• Maintaining the records and documentation needed for the Contributor's tax filings

9.2 No withholding

Wield does not withhold Indian tax from Service Fees. Service Fees are paid gross to the Contributor as a foreign-customer payment for professional services. The Contributor is responsible for any taxes due.

9.3 No tax advice and no representation as to outcome

Wield does not provide tax advice and makes no representation, warranty, or promise as to the tax treatment, characterisation, rate, or outcome that will apply to Service Fees in the Contributor's hands. Whether and how any particular tax treatment applies depends on the Contributor's own circumstances and is for the Contributor and the Contributor's own chartered accountant or tax adviser to determine. The Contributor is responsible for conducting their own research and obtaining their own advice. Wield provides the documentation set out in Section 8.3; what the Contributor does with it, and how the Contributor's filing is treated, are the Contributor's responsibility alone.

10. Independent contractor relationship

10.1 Independent contractor status

The Contributor performs the Services as an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement creates an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, principal-agent relationship (except the limited agency in Section 8.2.1), or fiduciary relationship between the Parties.

10.2 No employment benefits

The Contributor is not entitled to any employment-related benefit from Wield, including without limitation salary or fixed periodic remuneration; paid leave or holiday entitlement; statutory employee benefits under Indian law (provident fund, gratuity, ESI, maternity benefit) or Lithuanian law; medical, life, or other employee insurance; employer-sponsored retirement contributions; or notice period or severance on termination.

10.3 No representation as Wield employee

The Contributor will not represent themselves as an employee, agent, partner, or authorised representative of Wield, and will not enter into any contract or commitment on behalf of Wield.

10.4 Contributor's own legal obligations

As an independent contractor, the Contributor is responsible for the Contributor's own compliance with applicable law in respect of self-employment, professional-service and GST registration (where applicable based on receipts), and any other obligations applicable to the provision of professional services.

11. Intellectual property

11.1 Contributor's analysis and methods

The market views, analysis, techniques, and methodologies the Contributor develops are and remain the Contributor's intellectual property. Wield claims no ownership over them.

11.2 Wield's platform IP

Wield owns the Wield Platform, its proprietary engine, the analytics and assessment framework, the operational software, the Wield brand and trademarks, and all related intellectual property. Nothing in this Agreement transfers any of these to the Contributor.

11.3 Licence to Wield

The Contributor grants Wield a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to retain and use the analysis and the data generated by the Contributor on the Platform (including market views, timing, decision patterns, and aggregate metrics) for the purposes of operating the Platform, computing Assessed Analytical Value and paying Service Fees, providing the documentation in Section 8.3, ensuring the integrity and security of the Platform, and conducting internal research and developing Wield's products. The licence continues for the duration of this Agreement and for the retention periods set out in the Wield Privacy Policy.

11.4 No redistribution of identifiable Contributor analysis

Wield does not redistribute, sell, license, or otherwise share the Contributor's specific identifiable analysis with third parties, except: (a) with the Contributor's consent; (b) to Wield's professional advisers under confidentiality; (c) to the Identity-Verification Provider or Xflow in connection with verification and payment; (d) to regulators or authorities where required by law; or (e) to a successor or acquirer in connection with a corporate transaction, subject to equivalent protection.

If the Contributor provides feedback or suggestions about the Platform, Wield may use that feedback freely without restriction or obligation to compensate the Contributor.
