1. General
1.1 In order to access USD trading on the BAM Platform, you agree to open and maintain an account with PT ("PT Account"). Each PT Account will consist of a PT Linked Wallet that will only be used for purposes of the User's trading activities on the BAM Platform ("Linked Wallet"). Only funds deposited in this Linked Wallet can be used for USD Transactions on the BAM Platform.
1.2 For the avoidance of doubt, all monies in the/your Linked Wallet are held by PT on your behalf at all times; at no time will BAM be the holder of any money in the/your Linked Wallet. You maintain a direct customer relationship with PT regarding the Linked Wallet, and PT is responsible for establishing and maintaining balances in the Linked Wallet, processing and settling all transfers and transactions through, to, and from the Linked Wallet and exercising principal oversight and control over the Linked Wallet.
1.3 All monies in the/your Linked Wallet are held as cash in pooled custodial accounts at one or more banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The custodial accounts have been established in a manner to provide eligibility for pass-through FDIC insurance up to the depositor coverage limit, which is currently $250,000 per individual. The purpose of FDIC pass-through insurance is to protect customer funds held by PT against the risk of loss if any of the insured depository institutions where PT maintains custodial accounts were to fail.
2. User Authorizations
2.1 You hereby authorize BAM and its employees and agents, in relation to your Linked Wallet and your utilization of the Services, to, among other things:
- (a) access and view the balances and all other Transaction information (including Transaction history) relating to any of the Linked Wallet for the purpose of reconciliation and computation of amounts due to or from you arising from Transactions on the BAM Platform;
- (b) instruct PT to effect transfer of funds to/from the Linked Wallet;
- (c) instruct PT to effect credit and debit of the Linked Wallet balance in relation to Transactions which have been executed on the BAM Platform or for fees and charges arising from Transactions conducted through the BAM Platform, or in relation to Transactions which have been unwound pursuant to the User Agreement;
- (d) freeze (or instruct PT to freeze) further credit or debit to or from the Linked Wallet due to your breach of the User Agreement or breach of applicable law, or if there is a suspicion of money laundering/terrorism financing, or if there are breaches of anti-money laundering/countering the financing of terrorism policies and procedures; and
- (e) use any of your data or information obtained through PT for purposes of effecting Transactions on the BAM Platform or otherwise and/or share any of your data or information with PT for purposes of operating and maintaining the PT Account and Wallets.
2.2 For avoidance of doubt, BAM does not own any of the transactions or other details related to your PT Account. BAM's role is only as a facilitator that accesses your Linked Wallet through the API integration made available through PT, such that BAM can send USD deposit, withdrawal and transfer instructions on behalf of you in connection with your trading activities on the BAM Platform.
2.3 You may only withdraw or revoke the authorizations described in Clause 2.1 above upon closure of your BAM Account in accordance with the process set out in Clause 2.8 of the User Agreement.

BAM shall have the right to immediately terminate and/or cancel your BAM Account pursuant to Clause 7.1 of the User Agreement.

5.2 You agree and acknowledge that any request for a Fiat Currency Withdrawal will only be effected after such time as BAM and/or PT may require to conduct the necessary verification and reconciliation procedures. Under no circumstances shall any of (a) BAM, (b) BAM’s shareholders, joint venture parties, affiliates and related corporations and entities, and (c) the officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, suppliers and service providers of all of the persons and entities described in (a) and (b) be responsible or liable for any direct or indirect losses (including loss of profits, business or opportunities), damages or costs suffered by you or any other person or entity, arising from any delay in effecting a Fiat Currency Withdrawal.

6.1 You shall maintain such Minimum Account in the Linked Wallet as BAM may from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion require.
6.2 BAM may, in its sole and absolute discretion, vary the Minimum Amount to be maintained in the Linked Wallet at any time by notification to you. No previous Minimum Amount requirements shall set a precedent or bind BAM.

BAM shall have the right to suspend or terminate the Services available to you pursuant to Clause 7.1 of the User Agreement should you fail to do so.
