1. DEFINITIONS: Currency Forex is not traded on a regulated exchange. Currency Forex is traded on the "Interbank" system. The Interbank system consists of banks/clearing houses that exchange Currency positions with other banks/clearing houses. There are no guarantees that the counterparties with whom Land Prime Ltd. deals are creditworthy. Every attempt has been made to deal with reputable creditworthy banks/clearing houses. Also, there may be certain cases when trading liquidity decreases, causing trading in a certain Currency to cease, thereby preventing the liquidation of an adverse position, which may result in a substantial financial loss to the Customer. In addition there may be certain cases when trading liquidity decreases or lacks, trading results of the customers will be dealt with the invalid tradings.
2. SUITABILITY AND RISK: Trading in Currency Forex is suitable only for those institutions or individuals financially able to withstand losses which may substantially exceed the value of margins or deposits. If Customer proves himself to be unsuitable for trading after the Customer has gained approval for trading, Land Prime Ltd. reserves the right to "freeze" the account from further trading activity until it can determine whether the Customer can be a suitable trader without exposing him/herself to unnecessary market risk.
If Customer directs Land Prime Ltd. to enter into any Currency Forex contract Customer agrees that: (a) any profit or loss arising as a result of a fluctuation in the exchange rate affecting such Currency will be entirely for Customer's account and risk and that (b) all initial and subsequent deposits for margin purposes shall be made in U.S. dollars via personal check, bank draft, or wire transfer, in such amounts as Land Prime Ltd. may in its sole discretion require.
3. AUTHORIZATION TO TRADE. Land Prime Ltd. is authorized to act as counterparty, or to purchase and sell Currency Forex, for customer's account(s) with counterparty banks or institutions, as Land Prime Ltd. deems appropriate, in accordance with the oral or online instructions of Customer or Customer's properly designated trading agent. If you would like to authorize a Designated Trading Agent to have trading authority over your account, refer to the Limited Power of Attorney Managed Account Authorization and Risk Disclosure Form.
4. DISCLAIMER AND CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: It is not the practice of Land Prime Ltd to make market recommendations. However, if any recommendations should nonetheless be made, it is understood and agreed that the market recommendations of Land Prime Ltd. are based solely on the judgment of Land Prime Ltd.'s personnel. These market recommendations may or may not be consistent with the market position or intentions of Land Prime Ltd., its affiliates and employees. Any such market recommendations are based upon information believed to be reliable, but Land Prime Ltd. cannot and does not guarantee the accuracy, timeliness or completeness thereof nor does Land Prime Ltd. represent that following such recommendations will eliminate the risk inherent in trading Currency Forex.
Customer acknowledges that (i) any market recommendations and information provided to Customer by Land Prime Ltd. do not constitute an offer to buy or sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, any Currency Forex contract; (ii) such recommendation and information, although based upon information obtained from sources believed by Land Prime Ltd. to be reliable, may be based solely on opinion and such information may be incomplete and may be unverified; and (iii) Land Prime Ltd. makes no representation, warranty or guarantee as to, and shall not be responsible for, the accuracy or completeness of any information or trading recommendation furnished to Customer. Customer acknowledges that Land Prime Ltd. and/or its officers, directors, affiliates, associates, stockholders or representatives may have a position in or may intend to buy or sell Currencies, which are the Customer Agreement subject of market recommendations furnished to Customer, and that the market position of Land Prime Ltd. or any such officer, director, affiliate, associate, stockholder or representative may not be consistent with the recommendations furnished to Customer by Land Prime Ltd. Customer further acknowledges that Land Prime Ltd. makes no representations concerning the tax implications or treatment of contracts. Customer also acknowledges that should Customer grant trading authority or control over Customer's account to another person ("Trading Agent"), whether on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis, Land Prime Ltd. shall in no way be responsible for reviewing Customer's choice of such Trading Agent or making any recommendations with respect thereto. Customer understands that Land Prime Ltd. makes no warranties or representations concerning the Trading Agent, that Land Prime Ltd. shall not be responsible for any loss to Customer occasioned by the actions of the Trading Agent and that Land Prime Ltd. does not, by implication or otherwise, endorse or approve of the operating methods of the Trading Agent.

5. POWER OF ATTORNEY: Customer understands that Land Prime Ltd.'s employees are forbidden from exercising discretion over or managing a Currency Forex account or holding a power of attorney over a Currency Forex account. If Customer's account is, for any reason, being traded without Customer's authorization, Customer must notify Land Prime Ltd.'s Compliance Officer immediately.
6. MARGIN: (A) Policy: Land Prime Ltd.'s margin policy and/or the policies of those banks/clearing houses through which contracts are executed may require that additional funds be provided to properly margin Customer's account and that Customer is obligated to immediately meet such margin requirements in U.S. dollars via personal check, bank draft, or by wire transfer to Land Prime Ltd. account. Failure to properly fund customer's account prior to a margin call may result in the automatic liquidation of any open positions with a resultant loss.
Customers should make all necessary precautions to prevent a margin call if the desire of the customer is to hold onto his/her open position(s). Land Prime Ltd will not notify the Customer of a margin call in advance, either by mail or by phone or by any other means. In the event of a margin call, Land Prime Ltd. will automatically liquidate all open positions to prevent further possible losses. It is the Customer's responsibility to monitor his/her margin account balances at all times. The Land Prime Ltd. trading platform displays sufficient information for a Customer to monitor his/her margin account balances. A Customer who is unable to monitor and manage his/her margin account will not be considered "sophisticated" and will not be permitted to open a Currency Forex trading account.
Margin calls shall be conclusive and binding unless objected to, within twenty-four (24) business hours of margin call, by telephone, fax or by wire. If by telephone, written confirmation must follow from Customer within two (2) New York business days. Written objections on Customer's part shall be directed to Land Prime Ltd 's Compliance Department at Glenville Drive, Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and shall be deemed received only if actually delivered or mailed by registered mail return receipt requested.
(B) Deposit Requirements: Customer shall provide to and maintain with Land Prime Ltd. margin in such US Dollar based amounts and in such forms as Land Prime Ltd. in its sole discretion, may from time to time require. Such margin requirements may be greater or lesser than margins required by a counterparty bank. Land Prime Ltd. may change margin requirements at any time. Customer shall deposit for margin required for trading, and 10% of the deposit amount shall be (1) basically bigger than a minimum transfer fee that Land Prime Ltd. should charges for any payment service (2) as 300 US dollar generally and (3) in case of additional deposit, the minimum deposit amount is same. Customer understands that he or she may attempt to deposit additional funds into his/her trading account in an attempt to avoid a margin call; however, if those funds are not received in the Customer's trading account prior to the margin call being issued, Land Prime Ltd. will not be held liable for the Customer's losses as a result of the margin call. Land Prime Ltd. may at any time proceed to liquidate Customer's account in accordance with paragraph 17 below and any failure by Land Prime Ltd. to enforce its rights hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by Land Prime Ltd. of its right to enforce its rights thereafter. No previous margin requirement by Land Prime Ltd. shall preclude Land Prime Ltd. from increasing or decreasing that requirement without prior notice. Land Prime Ltd. retains the right to limit the number of open positions which Customer may acquire or maintain at Land Prime Ltd. Land Prime Ltd. will attempt to execute all orders which it may, in its sole discretion, choose to accept for the purchase or sale of contracts or other property in accordance with the oral or written instructions of Customer or Customer's Trading Agent. However, Land Prime Ltd. shall not be responsible for any loss or damage caused, directly or indirectly, by any events, actions or omissions beyond the control of Land Prime Ltd. including, without limitation, loss or damage resulting, directly or indirectly, from any delays or inaccuracies in the transmission of orders and/or information due to a breakdown in or failure of any transmission or communication facilities.

37. RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. Customer acknowledges that Customer has read and understands the following Risk Disclosure Statement: This brief statement does not disclose all of the risks in Currency Forex trading and other significant aspects of trading in leveraged investments. In light of the risks, Customer should undertake such transactions only if Customer understands the nature of the contracts (and contractual relationships) into which Customer is entering and the extent of Customer's exposure to risk. TRADING IN LEVERAGED CONTRACTS SUCH AS FOREX CURRENCY CONTRACTS IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC, BUT ONLY FOR FINANCIALLY SOPHISTICATED INDIVIDUALS AND FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS. The Customer should carefully consider whether trading is appropriate for the Customer in light of the Customer's experience, objectives, financial resources and other circumstances.
a. Effect of 'Leverage' or 'Gearing' Transactions in Currency Forex accounts carry a high degree of risk. The amount of initial margin is small relative to the value of the Currency Forex contract so that transactions are 'leveraged' or 'geared'. A relatively small market movement will have a proportionately larger impact on the funds Customer has deposited or will have to deposit; this may work against Customer as well as for Customer. Customer may sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and any additional funds deposited with the firm to maintain the Customer's position. If the market moves against the Customer's position or margin levels are increased, Customer may be called upon to maintain Customer's position. If the market moves against the Customer's position or margin levels are increased, Customer may be called upon to pay substantial additional funds on short notice to maintain Customer's position. If Customer fails to comply with a request for additional funds within the time prescribed, Customer's position may be liquidated at a loss, and Customer will be liable for any resulting deficit.
b. Risk-reducing orders or strategies The placing of certain orders (e.g. 'stop' or 'limit' or 'OCO' order, where permitted under local law), which are intended to limit losses or secure profits to certain amounts, may not be effective because market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders. Strategies using combinations of positions, such as 'spread' and 'straddle' positions may be as risky as taking simple 'long' or 'short' positions.
c. Transactions in other jurisdictions Transactions on currencies of other countries in other jurisdictions, including markets formally linked to a domestic market, may expose Customer to additional risk. Such markets may be subject to regulation, which may offer different or diminished investor protection. Before Customer trades, Customer should inquire about any rules relevant to the Customer's particular transactions.
d. Market risks and on-line trading: Trading currencies involves substantial risk that is not suitable for everyone. Trading on-line, no matter how convenient or efficient, does not necessarily reduce risks associated with currency trading.
38. RISK ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Customer acknowledges that trading in leveraged Currency Forex contracts is speculative, involves a high degree of risk and is appropriate only for persons who can assume risk of loss in excess of their margin deposit. Customer understands that because of the low margin normally required in Currency Forex trading, price changes in Currency Forex contracts may result in significant losses, which losses may substantially exceed Customer's investment and margin deposit. Customer warrants that Customer is willing and able, financially and otherwise, to assume the risk of Currency Forex trading, and in consideration of Land Prime Ltd.'s carrying his/her account(s), Customer agrees not to hold Land Prime Ltd. responsible for losses incurred through following either Customer's own or Land Prime Ltd's trading recommendations or suggestions or those of its employees, agents or representatives. Customer recognizes that guarantees of profit or freedom from loss are impossible of performance in Currency Forex trading.
Customer acknowledges that Customer has received no such guarantees or representations from Land Prime Ltd. or from any of its representatives or employees or from any introducing broker, Trading Agent or other person or entity whom Customer may be conducting his/her/its trading activities in his/her/its Land Prime Ltd. account and has not entered into this Agreement in consideration of or in reliance upon any such guarantees or representations. Customer agrees that Customer is fully responsible for making all final decisions as to transactions effected for Customer's account. Customer has considered the foregoing factors and in view of Customer's present and anticipated continued financial resources, Customer is willing and able to assume the substantial financial risks of Currency Forex trading.
Customer acknowledges that for customer's risk management, the leverage of his/her trading platform can be changed according to his/her equity, balance and opened trading volume based on the terms and conditions that Land Prime Ltd. notifies or designates on any website or location.
