4. Nature of Our Services

Stratmont Global is an independent advisory and intermediation business operating in international commodity and raw-materials markets, including metals, energy and soft commodities. Our Services consist of:

• Supplier and buyer introductions — identifying and introducing potential counterparties to one another;

• Trade negotiation support — assisting parties in communicating and progressing commercial discussions;

• Documentation and transaction coordination — helping to coordinate the preparation and exchange of trade documentation between parties; and

• Trade finance coordination — providing communication and coordination support in relation to Financial Instruments such as Letters of Credit (LC), Standby Letters of Credit (SBLC), escrow structures and pre-export finance.

Our role is limited to facilitating communication, introductions and coordination between independent parties. We do not direct, control or assume responsibility for the commercial terms agreed between you and any Counterparty, the negotiation outcome, or the performance of any resulting transaction. The decision to enter into any transaction, and on what terms, is yours alone.

5. Intermediary-Only Role; Important Limitations

This Section is fundamental to your use of the Website and our Services. By using the Website or submitting an Enquiry, you acknowledge and accept each of the following statements.

We act solely as an independent intermediary, introducer and adviser. Stratmont Global facilitates communication and coordination between parties. We are not, and do not act as:

• a principal, buyer or seller in any transaction;

• a broker-dealer, exchange or trading venue;

• a bank, credit institution or financial institution;

• a payment institution, e-money institution or money-services business; or

• a trustee, custodian or escrow agent.

We do not handle goods, funds or instruments. We do not take title to, possession of, or risk in, any goods or commodities. We do not hold, receive, control or transmit client funds or money. We do not issue, confirm, advise, guarantee, endorse or honour any Financial Instrument.

We do not provide regulated or professional advice. Nothing on the Website or in our communications constitutes, or should be relied upon as, regulated financial, investment, banking, securities, legal, tax or accounting advice. You must obtain your own independent professional advice before entering into any transaction.

No offer or solicitation. Nothing on the Website or in any communication from us constitutes an offer, solicitation, invitation, inducement or recommendation to buy, sell, subscribe for or deal in any commodity, security, financial product or Financial Instrument, in any jurisdiction where it would be unlawful to do so.

No guarantees. We do not represent, warrant or guarantee, and shall have no liability in respect of:

• the existence, identity, solvency, capacity, authority, good standing, reliability or performance of any Counterparty;

• the existence, availability, ownership, title, quality, quantity, condition, origin or delivery of any goods or commodities;

• the authenticity, validity, sufficiency, enforceability or honouring of any Financial Instrument or document; or

• the negotiation, conclusion, completion, profitability or success of any transaction.

6. Your Obligations and Due Diligence

Because we act only as an intermediary, you retain full and sole responsibility for protecting your own interests. In particular, you agree that:

• you will conduct your own independent due diligence on every Counterparty, transaction, instrument and document, and will not rely on any introduction, statement or coordination by us as a substitute for that due diligence;

• you are solely responsible for carrying out your own "know-your-customer" (KYC) and anti-money-laundering (AML) checks to the standard required by the laws applicable to you;

• you are solely responsible for screening all parties, goods, vessels, end-uses and destinations against applicable sanctions, embargoes, export-control and trade-restriction regimes (including those of the European Union, Ireland, the United Nations, the United Kingdom and the United States, as applicable to you);

• you will obtain your own independent legal, financial, tax, technical and regulatory advice before committing to any transaction;

• all information you provide to us is accurate, current, complete and not misleading, and you will keep it up to date; and

• you have all necessary rights, consents, licences and authority to provide any information you submit and to enter into any transaction you pursue.

You are responsible for assessing the suitability and legality of any transaction for your own circumstances. We are entitled to rely on the information you provide without independently verifying it.

7. Acceptable Use of the Website

You agree to use the Website only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You must not:

• use the Website in any way that breaches any applicable local, national or international law or regulation, or that is fraudulent, deceptive or has any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;

• submit through the Website any information that is false, misleading, defamatory, obscene, threatening or otherwise unlawful;

• use the Website to facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion or any other financial crime;

• attempt to gain unauthorised access to, interfere with, damage or disrupt the Website, the server on which it is stored, or any network, software or hardware connected to it;

• introduce any virus, trojan, worm, logic bomb or other material that is malicious or technologically harmful;

• use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means to access, monitor or copy the Website or its Content without our prior written consent; or

• reproduce, duplicate, copy, resell or otherwise exploit any part of the Website for commercial purposes except as expressly permitted by these Terms.

We reserve the right to suspend, restrict or terminate your access to the Website, and to decline or cease to deal with any Enquiry, at our sole discretion and without notice, where we reasonably consider it necessary, including for breach of these Terms or for legal, regulatory, compliance or risk reasons.

8. Intellectual Property

All intellectual property rights in the Website and its Content — including the text, graphics, design, layout, look and feel, and the "Stratmont Global" name, logo and trade marks — are owned by or licensed to Stratmont Global and are protected by copyright, trade mark and other laws. All such rights are reserved.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to access and view the Website and its Content for your own internal business purposes only. You must not, without our prior written permission, copy, reproduce, republish, download, post, broadcast, transmit, adapt, modify, distribute or otherwise commercially exploit any part of the Content, nor use any of our names, logos or trade marks.

Nothing on the Website should be construed as granting any licence or right to use any trade mark, logo or service mark displayed on the Website without our prior written permission or that of the relevant third-party owner.

9. Confidentiality and Information You Submit

We will handle personal data contained in your Enquiry and other communications in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which explains what we collect (including through our contact form, our analytics tool and a sampled session-replay tool), why, and on what legal basis under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Irish Data Protection Act 2018.

Our contact form invites you to provide your full name, company, email address, a counterparty category and a free-text "mandate brief" describing your cargo, routes and commercial needs. Please do not submit unnecessary sensitive personal data, or confidential information belonging to third parties, through the form or in early correspondence. Where you do submit information about third parties, you confirm that you are entitled to share it with us for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy.

Where you and we agree in writing that specific information is to be treated as confidential, we will treat it accordingly. In the absence of such an agreement, you should not assume that information shared at an enquiry stage is subject to any obligation of confidence beyond our handling of personal data under the Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection law. We may disclose information where required to do so by law, regulation or a competent authority.

10. Third-Party Links and Counterparties

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, resources or services that are not operated or controlled by us. Such links are provided for your convenience only. We do not endorse, and are not responsible for, the content, products, services, accuracy or availability of any third-party website or resource, and your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their own terms and policies.

Any Counterparty to whom you are introduced is an independent third party. We do not act for, control or accept responsibility for any Counterparty, and any arrangement, negotiation, contract or transaction between you and a Counterparty is solely between you and that Counterparty. We are not a party to any such arrangement and have no liability in respect of it.

11. No Warranties; Website Provided "As Is"

The Website and all Content and information made available through it are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without any representations, warranties, conditions or guarantees of any kind, whether express or implied, except as expressly set out in these Terms and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

In particular, and without limiting the above, we do not warrant or guarantee that: the Website will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free; that defects will be corrected; that the Website or the servers that make it available are free of viruses or other harmful components; or that any Content or information is accurate, complete, reliable, current or fit for any particular purpose.

Any Content and information on the Website is provided for general information only and does not constitute advice on which any reliance should be placed. You are responsible for verifying any information before acting on it.

12. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes any liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the laws of Ireland.

Subject to the paragraph above, and to the fullest extent permitted by law:

• we shall not be liable to you for any indirect, special or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, loss of opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of contracts, in each case whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, and whether or not foreseeable;

• we shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from: your reliance on any Content or information; any dealings, negotiations, transactions or disputes with any Counterparty; the conduct, default, insolvency or fraud of any Counterparty; the existence, quality, title or delivery of any goods; the authenticity or honouring of any Financial Instrument; your failure to conduct adequate due diligence, KYC/AML, sanctions or export-control screening; or any decision you take in connection with any transaction; and

• we shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance, or for any unavailability of the Website, caused by matters beyond our reasonable control.

Cap on liability. Subject to the first paragraph of this Section, our total aggregate liability to you arising out of or in connection with the Website, these Terms and any Enquiry or Services — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise — shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total fees (if any) actually paid by you to us in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the liability, or (b) one thousand euro (€1,000).

You accept that the allocation of risk in these Terms is reasonable given the intermediary-only nature of our role and the fact that you retain control of, and responsibility for, your own due diligence and transaction decisions.

13. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Stratmont Global and its directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:

• your breach of these Terms or of any applicable law or regulation;

• your misuse of the Website or its Content;

• any information you submit to us that is false, misleading, unlawful or infringes the rights of a third party;

• any transaction, dealing or dispute between you and any Counterparty; and

• your failure to carry out adequate due diligence, KYC/AML checks, or sanctions and export-control screening.

This indemnity does not apply to the extent that the relevant loss arises directly from our own fraud, or from any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

14. Relationship of the Parties

Nothing in these Terms, in your use of the Website, or in your making of an Enquiry, creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, fiduciary, trust, employment or franchise relationship between you and Stratmont Global. We act as an independent contractor and intermediary only.

Neither party has authority to act for, bind, incur obligations on behalf of, or make representations on behalf of the other, except as may be expressly agreed in writing in a separate engagement agreement. The introduction of, or coordination with, any Counterparty does not make us a party to, or guarantor of, any transaction or arrangement between you and that Counterparty.

15. Sanctions and Anti-Bribery Compliance

You represent, warrant and undertake, on a continuing basis, that:

• you and, so far as you are aware, your Counterparties, owners and beneficial owners are not subject to, or owned or controlled by any person subject to, any applicable sanctions or trade restrictions (including those administered by the European Union, Ireland, the United Nations, and, where applicable to you, the United Kingdom and the United States);

• you will comply with all applicable sanctions, export-control, anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorist-financing laws in connection with any matter involving us; and

• you will comply with all applicable anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws, including the Irish Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Act 2018, and will not offer, give, request or accept any bribe, facilitation payment or other improper advantage in connection with any matter involving us.

We operate a zero-tolerance approach to bribery, corruption, money laundering and sanctions breaches. We may decline, suspend or terminate any dealing, and may report matters to the relevant authorities, where we reasonably consider that continuing would breach applicable law or expose us to legal, regulatory or reputational risk. You will promptly notify us if you become aware of any actual or suspected breach of this Section.

16. Force Majeure

We shall not be in breach of these Terms, nor liable for any failure or delay in performing any obligation, where such failure or delay results from any event or circumstance beyond our reasonable control. This includes acts of God, fire, flood, severe weather, epidemic or pandemic, war, armed conflict, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, sanctions, embargoes, changes in law, labour disputes, failures of utilities or telecommunications, and failures or interruptions of the internet, hosting platforms, content-delivery networks or other third-party services on which the Website depends.

17. Variation of These Terms

We may amend, update or replace these Terms from time to time, including to reflect changes in our Services, our business practices, or legal or regulatory requirements. The version in force is the one published on the Website, and the date at the top of these Terms shows when they were last updated.

Any changes take effect when they are posted on the Website. Your continued use of the Website, or your submission of any further Enquiry, after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the amended Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

18. General Provisions

SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found by any court or competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, or, if that is not possible, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy (and any separate written engagement agreement we may enter into with you), constitute the entire agreement between you and us in relation to your use of the Website, and supersede all prior understandings, communications and arrangements in relation to that subject matter.

ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign, transfer, sub-contract or otherwise deal with any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or sub-contract any of our rights or obligations under these Terms to any third party, including in connection with a reorganisation, merger or sale of our business.

NO WAIVER

No failure or delay by us in exercising any right or remedy under these Terms shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further exercise of it.

BENEFIT OF THESE TERMS

The limitation of liability and indemnity provisions in these Terms are expressed to operate, and are intended to be enforceable by us, for the benefit of Stratmont Global and its directors, officers, employees and agents. Except as expressly stated in these Terms, these Terms do not confer any rights or benefits on any person who is not a party to them.

19. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms, and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with them, their subject matter or formation, your use of the Website, or any Enquiry, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Ireland.

You and we agree that the courts of Ireland shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute or claim.
