RESOLV Staking Terms

Effective date: 27 May 2025

1. GENERAL PROVISIONS

The terms apply to users of the https://app.resolv.xyz/resolv/stake, a web-hosted user interface (the “Staking Services”) made available by Resolv Labs Ltd (“Resolv”, “Company”, “We”, “Us”, or “Our”). The Staking Services allow You to connect Your Wallet (as defined below) to stake Your $RESOLV tokens, the native tokens of the Resolv Protocol (the “Protocol”) in order to receive rewards.

By using the Staking Services, individuals, whether on their own behalf or on behalf of entities (including DAOs) (“You”, or “User”), agree to be bound by these Staking Terms of Use ("Staking Terms"). If You do not agree to these Staking Terms, or if You cannot legally bind any company, organization or other entity You represent, You must not access or use the Staking Services.

You also agree that these Staking Terms shall be read together with Our Privacy Policy and Our Terms of Service (together, the “General Terms”), which are incorporated herein by reference. These Staking Terms shall be read to be consistent with the General Terms to the greatest extent possible. In the event of a direct conflict between these Staking Terms and the General Terms, these Staking Terms shall control but only with respect to Your use of the Staking Services.

2. STAKING SERVICES

The Staking Services allow you to initiate a transaction from Your Digital Wallet that transfers your $RESOLV to a smart contract and receive $stRESOLV in return. Note that $stRESOLV cannot be transferred from the Digital Wallet to which it was issued.

The Staking Services also allow you to initiate a transaction from Your Digital Wallet to burn your $stRESOLV and receive $RESOLV in return following the expiration of a 14 day unbonding period. You can also use other front end interfaces, or initiate a transaction directly from Your Digital Wallet, to do this. The Protocol imposes a 14-day unbonding period during which you cannot restake your $RESOLV or vote your $stRESOLV

3. REWARDS

Stakers have a time-weighted share in rewards attributable to each reward period in proportion to their holdings of $stRESOLV (including $stRESOLV that has been the subject of an unbonding transaction during the relevant epoch). Note that rewards are not automatically distributed or staked. The Staking Services allow you to initiate a transaction from Your Digital Wallet that holds $stRESOLV in order to claim your accrued rewards at any time after reward claiming functionality is enabled. In order to stake Your rewards of $RESOLV tokens, you will need to initiate a transaction to stake those tokens.

4. GOVERNANCE

Following the initiation of governance, certain decisions related to the Protocol will be subject to governance vote.

5. DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

Your access to and use of the Staking Services are at Your own risk. You understand and agree that the Staking Services are provided to You on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. Without limiting the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, Resolv Labs, its parents, affiliates, related companies, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, partners and licensors (the “Company Entities”) DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES RELATING TO TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, USAGE, QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, SUITABILITY OR FITNESS OF THE STAKING SERVICES FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR AS TO THE ACCURACY, QUALITY, SEQUENCE, RELIABILITY, WORKMANSHIP OR TECHNICAL CODING THEREOF, OR THE ABSENCE OF ANY DEFECTS THEREIN WHETHER LATENT OR PATENT. The Company Entities make no warranty or representation and disclaim all responsibility and liability for: (a) the completeness, accuracy, availability, timeliness, security or reliability of the Staking Services; (b) any harm to Your computer system, loss of data, or other harm that results from Your access to or use of the Staking Services; (c) the operation or compatibility with any other application or any particular system or device, including any Wallets; (d) whether the Staking Services will meet Your requirements or be available on an uninterrupted, secure or error-free basis; and (e) whether the Staking Services will protect Your assets from theft, hacking, cyber attack, or other form of loss caused by third party conduct. The Staking Services are purely technological services, and nothing contained in the Staking Services constitutes, or is meant to constitute, a financial or investment product or investment, financial, legal or other professional advice of any kind. If You require advice in relation to any financial, legal or other professional matter You should consult an appropriate professional. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained from the Company Entities or through the Staking Services, will create any warranty or representation not expressly made herein. THE LAWS OF CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES AS SET FORTH BELOW. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY ENTITIES BE LIABLE (A) FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING INDIRECT SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE STAKING SERVICES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER UNDER THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THE STAKING SERVICES OR THESE STAKING TERMS AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) EVEN IF THE COMPANY ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, OR (B) FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM, DEMAND OR DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE DELIVERY, USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE STAKING SERVICES. THE COMPANY ENTITIES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES FINALLY AWARDED SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00), OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID THE COMPANY ENTITIES, IF ANY, IN THE PAST SIX (6) MONTHS FOR THE STAKING SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
