GoldMoney Inc.

To execute on our mission and grow a long term business sustainably, thus maximizing long-term shareholder value, we must alwaysinvest in our clients and the security and integrity of our network. The GoldMoney network and the shared business architecture through the platform is designed to follow 3 core principles:

Putting client interest first• We seek a network-growth business model where we deliver more value to each customer than we expect to earn in return; where the

long term return on investment in customers provides returns to all network stakeholders with increasing efficiency, productivity, and scaling transaction income growth

Know our clients, protect from money laundering, protect clients & the network• The GoldMoney network is a closed network built with decentralized checks and balances and unlike bitcoin or other crypto currency

networks, the closed ledger network of BitGold allows for KYC protections that help prevent money laundering, fraud, and consumer

• The closed network approach allows GoldMoney to operate within regulatory requirements and integrate safely with partners in banking, dealing, payment networks and vault services

Full-asset reserve services, minimize exogenous risk for all users of the network • We believe core savings and payments services can operate using gold and technology without the need for fractionally reserved

deposits or securitized IOUS
