THIRD PARTY INFORMATION AND NO CONSENT OF OTHER PERSONS

This Whitepaper includes information obtained from various third party sources (“Third Party Information”). None of the publishers of Third Party Information has consented to the inclusion of Third Party Information in this Whitepaper and is therefore not liable for Third Party Information. While Quidd have taken reasonable actions to ensure that the information is extracted accurately and in its proper context, Quidd have not conducted any independent review of the information extracted from third party sources, verified the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of such information or ascertained the underlying economic assumptions relied upon therein. Consequently, neither Quidd nor any of its respective directors, executive officers and employees acting on their behalf makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of such information and shall not be obliged to provide any updates on the same.

NO FURTHER INFORMATION OR UPDATE

No person has been or is authorized to give any information or representation not contained in this Whitepaper in connection with Quidd and its respective businesses and operations, the QUIDD Tokens, and the QUIDD Initial Token Sale (each as referred to in the Whitepaper) and, if given, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized by or on behalf of Quidd.

The QUIDD Initial Token Sale (as referred to in the Whitepaper) shall not, under any circumstances, constitute a continuing representation or create any suggestion or implication that there has been no change, or development reasonably likely to involve a material change in the affairs, conditions and prospects of Quidd or in any statement of fact or information contained in this Whitepaper since the date hereof.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Prospective purchasers of QUIDD Tokens (as referred to in this Whitepaper) should carefully consider and evaluate all risks and uncertainties associated with Quidd, and their respective businesses and operations, the QUIDD Tokens, and the QUIDD Initial Token Sale (each as referred to in the Whitepaper), including all information set out in this Whitepaper prior to any purchase of QUIDD tokens. If any of such risks and uncertainties develops into actual events, the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Quidd could be materially and adversely affected. In such cases, you may lose all or part of the value of the QUIDD tokens.

The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, including any digital currency, digital assets and blockchain applications is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. The publication and dissemination of this document do not imply that any relevant laws, regulations and rules have been complied with. No regulatory authority has examined or approved this document. Where any relevant governmental authority makes changes to existing laws, regulations and/or rules, or where financial institutions make certain commercial decisions, it may have a material adverse effect and/or impair the ability of any relevant entity referred to in the document to function as intended, or at all. There are risks involved in the technologies relating to the Ethereum blockchain, and the QUIDD tokens, such as unforeseen bugs, security issues or disruptions. By way of the above and other factors not within our control, the entire sum used to purchase the QUIDD tokens may be lost.

Quidd may contract with third parties to develop and license their products and/or technology for use within the Quidd Ecosystem. While Quidd will take all commercially reasonable steps to secure the necessary rights and licenses, there are risks and uncertainties associated with the business and operations of such third party contractors that are beyond Quidd’s control and they may not deliver on the products and/or technology. There is also a risk that Quidd does not succeed in obtaining and/or renewing the necessary rights and licenses to such third party products and/or technology mentioned in this Whitepaper. Such events may have a material adverse effect on the function, deployment and use of the Quidd Ecosystem as intended.

This Whitepaper does not identify, or claim to identify, all the risk factors connected with Quidd and its businesses and operations, the QUIDD Tokens, and the QUIDD Initial Token Sale (each as referred to in the Whitepaper). The disclaimers set out above are not exhaustive. A more comprehensive list will be set out in other documents that may be published by Quidd from time to time. You must make your own independent evaluation, after making such investigations as you consider essential, of the merits of participating in the Token Sale and after obtaining your own independent professional advice. To the fullest extent possible, Quidd shall not be liable for any responsibility, liability, claims, demands and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to any acceptance or reliance on the information set forth in this document by you.
