TERMS APPLYING TO FX CONTRACTS

(a) Spot FX Contracts with you for any purpose; and/or

(b) Forward FX Contracts, for the purpose of:

(2) your direct investment.

9.3    We cannot sell you a Forward FX Contract if you are, among other things, seeking to profit by pure speculation on foreign exchange movements. We have sole discretion to decide whether the purpose of a Forward FX Contract is for the purchase of identifiable goods and/or services or direct investment. At our sole discretion, we may require you to provide us with evidence of the purpose of a Forward FX Contract.

9.4    In all cases you agree to take delivery of the full amount of Purchase Monies into your Lumon Wallet on the Value Date.

9.5    In entering into a Contract under these Terms, you understand that:

(a) if you do not hold the correct amount of Electronic Money in the Sale Currency in your Lumon Wallet at the correct time, this may result in the FX Contract being terminated or the Purchase Monies not being made available on time;

(b) any Forward FX Contract can be subject to Margin If we provide a credit facility to you, the supplementary credit facility terms letter contains details of Margin requirements;

(c) we cannot predict future exchange rates; and

(d) we will only accept payment directly from your bank account(s) unless otherwise specified and agreed with us.

9.6    We will always contract directly with you when entering into FX Contracts with you. We do not act on your behalf or as your agent when purchasing currency from our counterparties.

9.7    When giving an FX Order or entering into any FX Contract you rely solely on your own judgement. If we provide you with information concerning any matter including (without limit) the foreign exchange markets, it is on a voluntary basis, it is not advice and we do not accept responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of such information or assume any duty of care in relation to it.

9.8    We will not be bound by any FX Contract where it is reasonably determined by us that there is a Manifest Error in the agreed foreign exchange rate.

9.9    You do not have any right under the Financial Services (Distance Marketing) Regulations 2004 to cancel any FX Contract. However, you may, with our consent, close-out an FX Contract prior to the Value Date, by giving notice in writing to us. In such an event, you will be liable for all of the costs, expenses and losses and interest at the rate referred to in clause 8, on any such sums that we may incur, including any action we may take or have taken to cover or reduce our exposure, as a result of us entering into such FX Contract with you (including the actual or hypothetical costs of unwinding any hedging arrangements relating to such FX Contract).

9.10     You are able to request that an FX Order is automatically placed by you when we are able to provide you with your desired exchange rate. If we consent to this, we will notify you when we are able to provide your requested foreign exchange rate, at which stage you will be deemed to have entered into an FX Contract with us. It is therefore essential when you make such a request to us that you intend to pay for money in the Purchase Monies in full when your desired exchange rate becomes available. Please note that this service is offered on a ‘no liability basis’, i.e. we will not be held liable if we fail to notify you that we were able to offer you the specific foreign exchange rate. You are able to cancel the request at any time before we notify you that we are able to provide you with the requested foreign exchange rate and that we have entered into the FX Contract with you.

9.11    We may provide you with quotes for FX Orders from time to time. However, currency exchange rates are continuously changing, sometimes dramatically.

10.3    If there is any error or omission in the Contract Note, then it must be notified to us within 5 Standard Business Hours of its receipt by you or an Authorised Person. If you do not notify us of an error within that time period, you will be deemed by us to have confirmed that the details set out in the Contract Note (in the absence of Manifest Error) are correct.

10.4    If you enter into an FX Contract you may change the date upon which the Electronic Money in the purchased currency is due to be credited to your Lumon Wallet with our consent and subject to the terms which we will make you aware of, please speak to a member of our staff if this is a requirement of yours.

we have the right to treat your Payment Order as having been received on the next Business Day; and

TERMS APPLYING GENERALLY

20 – PAYMENTS TO US

20.1    In the event of a Spot FX Contract, you will ensure that you hold enough Electronic Money in the Sale Currency in your Lumon Wallet to cover the Sale Monies no later than the close of business on the Value Date.

20.2    In the event of a Forward FX Contract, you will ensure that you hold enough Electronic Money in Sale Currency in your Lumon Wallet:

(a) to cover the Margin, within one Business Day of the Contract Date, unless otherwise agreed;

(b) to cover any request for a Margin Call by 4pm on the Business Day following the day upon which the Margin Call was made; and

(c) to cover any outstanding balance of the Sale Monies, no later than close of business on the Value Date.

You have to allow enough time for money to clear into our account and for your Lumon Wallet to be credited.

If you do not hold enough money in the Sale Currency at the appropriate time, we may

(d) terminate the FX Contract or

(e) convert the Electronic Money you hold in your Lumon Wallet which is not in the Sale Currency into the Sale Currency using an exchange rate we believe is reasonable so that you meet your obligations under the FX Contract.

20.3    We accept no responsibility in the event that you send money to the incorrect account.

20.4    Someone other than you can send money to us on your behalf, provided that you have obtained our prior consent and they have complied with our requirements for additional information and documentation. We accept no liability if a third party sends us money on your behalf but they do not pass our due diligence requirements and you fail to meet your obligations under an FX Contract or a Payment is not executed at all or on time.

20.5     You should pay us by sending funds from your bank account to our bank account (the details of which we shall provide you). With our consent, you may be able to pay via direct debit. We do not accept cash, cheques or credit or debit card payments.

20.6    Banks have specified cut off times for the receipt and dispatch of electronic payments. We accept no responsibility for any consequence attributable to the arrival of funds or instruction of payment after the relevant cut off times.

20.7    All funds provided by you under a Contract (whether as security or otherwise) or standing to the credit of your Lumon Wallet may be appropriated by us if we incur any liability in respect of any Contract or in the event that you are unable to pay sums due to us or breach of these Terms.

20.8    If you fail to make any payments, in full or in part, due to us on time then (without prejudice to any other right or remedy that may be available to us under the Contract or general law):

(a) we may charge you interest at the rate of 4% above the base rate, from time to time in force, of the Bank of England from the date payment is due until the date payment is made and shall be compounded monthly;

(b) we will be entitled to terminate the Contract.

20.9    We may, at our discretion, make payments to third party introducers.

20.10    For the avoidance of doubt, we will not pay you interest on any Margin or any Electronic Money held by us on your behalf.

21 – SAFEGUARDING

21.1   Safeguarding means that we shall hold an amount of money, which is of the same value as the amount of Electronic Money in your Lumon Wallet(s), either in a bank account separate from our own business bank account (our “Segregated Bank Account”) or we shall cover it with an insurance policy which provides you with equivalent protection.  This means that in the unlikely event that we get into financial difficulties, the money which we safeguard will be protected from the claims of our creditors and it should be returned to you in full, less any administration costs for doing so.

21.2 When we receive money for your Lumon Wallet, we credit your Lumon Wallet and safeguard the equivalent amount of money. Our Segregated Bank Accounts are held with mainstream banks

21.3    When you pay Electronic Money to us to satisfy an FX Contract, including any final balancing payment, it becomes our Electronic Money and the equivalent amount of money representing that Electronic Money is no longer safeguarded by us on your behalf. This means that in the unlikely event that:

(a) we become insolvent between the FX Contract being entered into and it being completed; and

(b) the full amount of Purchase Monies is not returned to you or sent to your desired Beneficiary after we go insolvent,

to get the money you have paid us back, you will need to add your name and details to the list of creditors in the insolvency. In this circumstance you may not receive all of your money back.

22 – CHARGES

22.1    We charge for our Services. These charges are set out in the Charges Schedule.

22.2    We make a profit from entering into FX Contracts with you. The rate at which we purchase money in different currencies from our wholesale providers is slightly better than the rate at which we sell money in different currencies to you.

22.3    The charges may, at our discretion, be waived in part or discounted completely.

22.4    Any transfer of funds (whether resulting from a Contract or otherwise) may be liable to taxation in the UK or in any other applicable jurisdiction. It is your responsibility to ascertain the applicability and extent of any taxation and to declare and pay any tax on any such sums. In the event that we are required to withhold any sums in respect of taxation by any court, regulation or taxing entity in any applicable jurisdiction, we shall be permitted to do so. We shall have no obligation to account to you in respect of sums so withheld.

22.5    In some circumstances a number of intermediaries (such as correspondent banks) may be involved in an international transfer of currency, and such intermediaries may charge fees and expenses. The charges will in most cases (but not always) be deducted prior to its delivery. These charges are beyond our control and whilst we will endeavour to minimise these for you wherever possible, those charges cannot therefore be calculated in advance. You hereby acknowledge that you shall be liable for these charges.

23 – WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERTAKINGS

23.1    You warrant and represent to us (such representations and warranties to be made both on the date you sign these Terms and on each Contract Date) that:

25 – GENERAL LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

25.1    Where we and another person (such as another payment services provider) are liable to you in respect of the same matter or item, you agree that our liability to you will not be increased by any limitation of liability you have agreed with that other person or because of your inability to recover from that other person beyond what our liability would have been had no such limitation been agreed and/or if that other person had paid his or its share.

For the purposes of assessing the contribution to the Loss in question of any third party for the purposes of this Clause, no account shall be taken of any limit imposed or agreed on the amount of liability of such third party by any agreement (including any settlement agreement) made before or after such Loss occurred or was otherwise incurred.

32 – GENERAL

32.1    What happens if we got the price wrong? It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the FX Contracts or Payments Contract we enter into with you may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your Order. If we accept and process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract and refund you any sums you have paid.

32.2    Even if we delay in enforcing under these Terms, we can still enforce them later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breach of these Terms or any Contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you, but we continue to fulfil the Contract, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

32.3    What if something unexpected happens? We shall have no liability to you under these Terms or any Contract if we are prevented from or delayed in performing our obligations under these Terms, or from carrying on our business, by acts, events, omissions or accidents beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving our or any other party), failure of a utility service or transport or telecommunications network, act of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire, flood, storm or our default or sub- contractors, provided that you are notified of such an event and its expected duration.

32.4    If a court finds part of these Terms illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the clauses of these Terms operate separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

32.6    Do any other terms apply? We may publish other terms and conditions or notices from time to time, such as those which may apply more generally to use of our Website. You should look out for these when visiting our Website.

32.7    We are not partners and neither of us may act as the other’s agent. Nothing in these Terms is intended to or shall operate to create a partnership or joint venture between you and us, or authorise either party to act as agent for the other, and neither party shall have the authority to act in the name or on behalf of or otherwise to bind the other in any way (including, but not limited to, the making of any representation or warranty, the assumption of any obligation or liability and the exercise of any right or power).

32.8    We can make amendments to these Terms. We may amend these Terms by giving you no less than two months’ notice in writing. If you object to the proposed amendments, you have the right to terminate these Terms without charge before the date proposed by us for the entry into force of the changes. You will be deemed to have accepted the proposed amendments unless you notify us and terminate these Terms before the date proposed by us for the entry into force of the changes. If we receive no objection from you, such amendments shall take effect from the date specified by us but may not affect any rights or obligations that have already arisen and will not be retrospective. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of these Terms by any means by you, shall not affect any Contract nor any rights or obligations that have already arisen at the date of the termination.
