Transaction Agreement

U.S. Bullion Reserve Inc (“USBR”) and (“Customer”) agree, subject to the provisions in this “Transaction Agreement” set forth in Paragraph 11, that the following terms shall govern the pending and all future transactions between the parties hereto involving the purchase, sale, trade or other transactions involving Precious Metals and Cryptocurrency. “Precious Metals” shall mean, for purposes of this Transaction Agreement, any precious metal, in any form, that is the subject of a transaction between USBR and Customer, and shall include, but is not limited to, bullion bars, coins, semi-Numismatic coins and bars, and Numismatic coins and bars. “Cryptocurrency” in digital form, that is subject of a transaction between USBR and Customer, and shall include, but is not limited to, Bitcoin, Ripple, Lite Coin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic.

1. Delivery of Precious Metals & Cryptocurrency Purchased:

Customer must deliver funds sufficient to cover the purchase within five (5) business days of Customer’s placement of the order (“Purchase Funds”). Purchase Funds may be delivered by check, credit card or wire transfer. With the limited exception noted in Paragraph 8a, all sales, including credit card sales, are final (i.e the Precious Metals cannot be exchanged or returned for a refund). Checks may be made out to U.S. Bullion Reserve (For wire transfer instructions, please contact your USBR sales representative.) USBR shall deliver the Precious Metals and or cryptocurrency specified in Customer’s order to a suitable delivery service for delivery to Customer no more than sixty (60) days after USBR verifies that the Purchase Funds provided are backed by good funds (Please note that it may take 12 business days to so verify personal checks.) If Customer fails to provide the Purchase Funds within five (5) business days of Customer’s placement of the order, USBR may exercise the rights set forth in Paragraph 4, below.

2. Delivery of Precious Metals & Cryptocurrency:

Unless otherwise specified in writing at the time of Customer’s order, USBR shall cause all Precious Metals & Cryptocurrency purchased and paid for to be delivered to Customer’s address set forth above. USBR only uses reputable, nationally recognized delivery services to deliver its Precious Metals, and digital wallets to transfer cryptocurrency. If, however, Customer’s order is lost prior to delivery, Customer is instructed to notify USBR in writing, immediately. Notice of any such alleged loss should be sent to U.S. Bullion Reserve, Attention: Customer Service, 515 S. Flower St. Los Angeles CA 90071. If the delivery service verifies that Customer’s Precious Metals were never delivered, USBR shall, within twenty-five (25) days of such verification, in its sole discretion, either refund to Customer the full purchase price for such undelivered Precious Metals or replace such Precious Metals with other Precious Metals of the same denomination/type and grade. All Cryptocurrency transactions buy and or sale will be trackable through blockchain.com. The cryptocurrency wallet address provided above would be the only digital address to transfer funds. USBR assumes no responsibility for Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency lost after delivery to Customer, USBR assumes no risk of loss for any Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency’s purchased from a Customer until such materials are delivered to and accepted by an authorized representative of USBR

3. Purchase Price:

a. Sales: The purchase price Customer has been quoted and agreed to pay includes USBR ‘s profit margin on the transaction. Within the Precious Metals industry and Cryptocurrency marketplace, the difference between USBR ‘s cost on the day of the purchase (for the Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency Customer has agreed to buy) and the retail price quoted to Customer is known as the “Spread”. Spreads vary significantly – by Precious Metal and Cryptocurrency, by customer, and over time. For Customer to make a profit, Customer must be able to sell the Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency in the future for a price high enough to cover Customer’s initial investment, including this Spread. Spreads may be subject to negotiation, and any Spread charged to Customer in a specific transaction may be more or less than the Spread charged to others in similar transactions or charged to Customer in prior or future transactions. At the time this Transaction Agreement was transmitted for Customer’s signature, (i) USBR ‘s Spread on bullion (i.e. coins and bars that generally move in tandem with the spot price for the relevant commodity) was generally between two percent and ten percent (2% to 10%), and (ii) USBR ‘s Spread on semi Numismatic and Numismatic coins and bars was generally between five percent and thirty-three percent (5% to 33%). These numbers are only approximations, and represent a general range and a typical transaction. The actual Spread on any particular transaction could have been any amount within those ranges (or even possibly outside those ranges). For example, if a bullion coin or bar was quoted by USBR at $400, and included a twenty-five percent (25%) spread, USBR ‘s cost for that coin would be $300. USBR ‘s Spread range may be different (higher and/or lower), and the Spread USBR charges may be higher or lower, at the time of and for any given transaction. USBR Spread on Cryptocurrency is broken down with the following structure. All Transactions for cryptocurrency totaling $75,000 to $100,000 will have a ( 15%) spread, transactions totaling $100,001 to $200,000 will have a (14%) spread, transactions totaling $200,001 to $500,000 will have a (13%) spread, all transactions totaling $500,001 to $1,000,000 will have a (12%) spread, all transactions totaling $1,000,001 to $2,000,000 will have a (11%) spread, all transactions totaling $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 will have a (10%) spread, all transactions above $5,000,000 will have a (9%) spread. For example, (15%) spread on a cryptocurrency valued at $1,000 that would be quoted as $1,150. The $1,150 will include the spread USBR would charge on the transaction. Transaction total refers to total Dollar amount of all cryptocurrencies purchased per this transaction. These numbers are only approximations, and represent a general range and a typical transaction. The actual Spread on any particular transaction could have been any amount within those ranges.

b. IRA Sales: Individual retirement account (“IRA”) transactions are more expensive to process and can require USBR to assume certain investment risk in connection with the transaction. As such, notwithstanding the general ranges set forth in Paragraph 3a, at the time this Transaction Agreement was transmitted for Customer’s signature. The actual Spread on any particular transaction could have been higher or lower, at the time of any given transaction. For example, if a bullion coin or bar that ordinarily would be quoted by USBR (outside an IRA) at $400, with a ten percent (10%) Spread, might be quoted at $480. With a twenty-five percent (25%) Spread, if the bullion coin or bar is purchased as an IRA investment. In both those examples, however, USBR ‘s cost for the bullion coin or bar would be $360. Cryptocurrency IRA Sales will include the same spread mentioned in Purchase Price above. For example, (15%) spread on a cryptocurrency valued at $1,000 that would be quoted as $1,150. The $1,150 will include the spread USBR would charge on the transaction.

c. Re-purchases: The law prohibits USBR from guaranteeing to re-purchase the Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency USBR sells, and USBR does not guarantee that it will re-purchase any Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency that Customer purchases. However, as of the date of the transmission of this Transaction Agreement, USBR has never refused the opportunity to re-purchase Precious Metals that a customer purchased from USBR If you wish to sell your Precious Metals in the future, USBR encourages you to offer them to USBR first. Should USBR make an offer to repurchase your Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency, it is USBR ‘s current practice, which is subject to change at its sole discretion, to offer to repurchase Precious Metals that it commonly sells at the highest current wholesale price for such Precious Metals Markets. USBR ‘s repurchase offer may be raised or lowered on a daily, even hourly or more basis, depending upon various market conditions, inventory needs, and the price and availability of comparable Precious Metals. USBR does not guarantee that any re-purchase offer will equal to the price that USBR would pay to acquire the same denomination/type and grade of Precious Metal from a wholesaler, or that any offer made will be higher or equal to what someone might offer the same Precious Metals. USBR must be notified exact amount of cryptocurrency’s regardless of the type prior to the currency’s being transfer over.

d. Quotes on Customer’s Holdings: Customers may request a quote on their holdings at any time. When requesting a quote, please specify whether you are looking to purchase additional Precious Metals or sell your existing holdings – as USBR ‘s bid (buy from customer) and ask (sell to customer) quotes will vary. USBR bases such quotes on a variety of factors, which are not necessarily tied or related to the prices quoted by, or factors considered by, its competitors.

4. Remedy for Customer’s Failure to Perform:

If Customer refuses to accept delivery of the Precious Metals and Cryptocurrency to the wallet address specified above, or fails to make payment when due, USBR, at its sole discretion, may cancel the transaction and resell such Precious Metals on a wholesale basis. If the proceeds from such resale are less than the contract price with Customer, USBR shall be entitled to recover from Customer the difference between the resale price and Customer’s contract price, plus any incidental damages occasioned by Customer’s breach. If the proceeds from such resale are more than the contract price with Customer, USBR shall be entitled to keep the excess amount as liquidated damages, actual damages being too speculative to calculate at this juncture.

5. Investment Objectives; Holding Period, Investment Risk, No Advice, Commissioned Sales Representatives:

a. USBR is a seller and purchaser of Precious Metals. While USBR is always prepared to compare and contrast the different Precious Metals that are available for purchase or that USBR is willing to purchase, Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) no fiduciary relationship exists between USBR and Customer, (ii) the decision to purchase or sell Precious Metals, and which Precious Metals to purchase or sell are the Customer’s decision alone, and (iii) purchases or sales are made subject to Customer’s own prudence and judgment.

b. In USBR ‘s opinion, Precious Metals should be considered a long-term investment. Customer should be prepared to hold any Precious Metals purchased, whether from USBR or elsewhere, for at least a three to five-year period, and preferably five to ten years, to maximize the potential for gains. In USBR ‘s opinion, Customer should only invest capital that can be held for at least this period of time. However, Precious Metals, like all investments, carry capital risk. Precious Metals may appreciate at all or appreciate sufficiently to make Customer a profit at the expiration of this or any other period of time.

c. In USBR ‘s opinion, Customer should not invest more than twenty percent (20%) of Customer’s available investment funds in Precious Metals. Moreover, Precious Metals do not yield income and thus are not an appropriate investment vehicle for investors seeking current or future income. It is understood that the percentage invested is at the sole discretion of the investor and not USBR

d. The success of an investment in Precious Metals is dependent, in part, upon extrinsic economic forces including but not limited to supply, demand, international monetary conditions, and inflation or the expectation of inflation. The impact of these forces on the values of Precious Metals in general or any particular Precious Metal cannot be predicted. Customer acknowledges that the Precious Metals market can be volatile and that Precious Metal prices may rise or fall over time. Customer further acknowledges that past performance is no guarantee of future performance.

e. USBR does not provide tax, investment, or legal advice or advisory services, and no one associated with USBR is authorized to provide any such advice or services. Any written or oral statements by USBR, its officers, agents, sales representatives, or other representatives relating to future events or the attributes of certain Precious Metals are opinions only. Such statements, if any, are not representations of fact.

f. USBR ‘s sales representatives are commissioned salespersons – i.e., their salary is based, at least in part, on the amount and profit margin of the Precious Metals they sell. In addition, from time to time, USBR ‘s sales representatives may receive other compensation tied to sales activity – e.g., sales contests bonuses tied to the sale of certain denominations/types or grades of Precious Metals. USBR ‘s sales representatives are not licensed and their knowledge of Precious Metals and the Precious Metals marketplace varies markedly.

g. USBR makes no representations regarding the tax consequences of holding Precious Metals and or Cryptocurrency as an investment in an IRA. Customer expressly acknowledges that Customer has been advised to seek independent tax advice, from a qualified professional, regarding the tax consequences of such an investment.6. Grades: USBR purchases Precious Metals for resale to its customers. USBR is not a grading service, USBR does not independently assess the Precious Metals it purchases for re-sale, but relies upon the opinions and assessments of independent grading services such as Professional Coin Grading Service, Inc., and Numismatic Guaranty Corporation of America. Grading is a subjective process and it is not uncommon for grading services, or individual examiners within the same grading service, to reach different conclusions regarding the appropriate grade for a particular Precious Metal. Moreover, grading standards are constantly evolving. USBR does not guarantee that the Precious Metals it sells will achieve the same grades in the future.

7. Representative/Warranty; Sales Representatives Not Authorized To Make Other Representations or Warranties:

USBR represents and warrants that, upon the delivery of Purchase Funds (as provided for in Paragraph 1), and subject to the other terms and restrictions set forth in this Transaction Agreement, USBR will deliver to customer the denomination/type and grade of Precious Metals specified in Customer’s order, as classified and/or graded by one of the following independent grading services: Professional Coin Grading Service, Inc., Numismatic Guaranty Corporation of America, or any other independent grading service of similar standing. The only representation and warranty that Customer may rely upon in purchasing Precious Metals from or selling Precious Metals to USBR is the representation set forth in this Paragraph 7. Neither USBR, nor any of its officers, agents, employees, sales representatives, or other representatives are authorized to make any other representations or warranties concerning any Precious Metals that USBR is selling or purchasing under this Transaction Agreement.

8. Refund Policy:

a. Replacement of Semi-Numismatic or Numismatic Coins Where Grade is Disputed: Customer agrees to inspect each delivery carefully upon receipt. If, for any reason whatsoever, Customer is dissatisfied with the quality of a semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar (specific kinds of Precious Metals) purchased from USBR, Customer should immediately notify USBR If Customer notifies USBR of its dissatisfaction within fifteen (15) days of delivery of the semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar and the original holder in which the semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar in question was delivered has not been opened, removed, or tampered with in any respect, USBR shall replace the semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar in question with another semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar (as appropriate) of the same denomination in type and grade. USBR, at its sole discretion, may permit Customer to upgrade to a higher value semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar (either in denomination/type or grade) as part of this replacement process, provided Customer pays the difference between the contract price of the semi Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar previously purchased and USBR s current sale price for the higher value semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin(s) or bar(s) to be substituted. If USBR determines, in sole discretion, that another semi- Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar of the same denomination/type and grade is not reasonably, commercially available, USBR may elect, at its sole option, to either (i) replace the semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar purchased with a reasonably comparable semi-Numismatic or Numismatic coin or bar, even though of a different denomination/type and grade, or (ii) return Customer’s Purchase Funds and void that particular transaction.

b. With the exception noted in Paragraph 8a, ALL SALES ARE FINAL (i.e., the Precious Metals and or cryptocurrency cannot be exchanged or returned for a refund).

9. Notification of Complaint:
