CUSTOMER AGREEMENT

This is a legal contract (hereinafter referred to as "Agreement") between Global Clearing Group LTD (hereinafter referred to as “GCG”) a limited liability corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Belize, its successors and assigns, and the party (hereinafter referred to as "Trader" or "Client") executing this document. In connection with opening an account with GCG to speculate and purchase and or sell financial instruments, which may be purchased and or sold to GCG or through GCG for Trader's account(s), Trader acknowledges and agrees as follows:
1. Over-The-Counter Foreign Exchange. Trader may purchase and or sell cash or spot foreign currency (hereinafter referred to as "Currency") and any similar financial instruments, through the over-the-counter foreign exchange markets (collectively referred to as "OTCFX"), where GCG may act as Trader's counterparty in the purchase and or sale of the Currency.
2. Authorization to Trade OTCFX. GCG is authorized to purchase and sell OTCFX for Trader's account(s) with counterparty banks or sophisticated institutions or participants, in accordance with Trader's oral or written or computer instructions. GCG is authorized to execute all orders with such banks or sophisticated institutions or participants as GCG deems appropriate.
3. Margins and Deposit Requirements. Trader shall provide to and maintain with GCG margin in such amounts and in such forms as GCG, in its sole discretion, may require or as may be otherwise required by applicable regulation. Trader is aware and acknowledges that the requirements for margin vary, and may be changed from time to time, at GCG’s sole discretion, based upon account size; volume traded, and market conditions. Such margin requirements may be greater or less than margins required by a counterparty bank. GCG may change margin requirements at any time. Trader agrees to deposit by immediate wire transfer such additional margin when and as required by GCG and will promptly meet all margin calls in such mode of transmission as GCG in its sole discretion designates. GCG may at any time proceed to liquidate Trader's account in accordance with paragraph 3.3 and any failure by GCG to enforce its rights hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by GCG to enforce its rights thereafter. No previous margin requirement by GCG shall preclude GCG from increasing that requirement without prior notice.
4. Settlement Date, Rollovers and Delivery. With respect to purchases or sales of Currencies through an OTCFX account, Trader agrees to instruct GCG as to the offset or rollover of a Currency position. Except as provided herein, during the term of the Currency position, Trader shall give GCG instructions for rolling the Currency position no later than two hours prior to the settlement of trading in the Currency contract on the day Trader intends to rollover a Currency position. In addition, Trader, by noon of the business day before the settlement date of the Currency contract, shall instruct GCG whether to deliver, offset or rollover the Currency position. In the absence of timely instructions from Trader, GCG is authorized, at GCG’s absolute discretion, to deliver rollover or offset all or any portion of the Currency positions in the OTCFX account(s) for Trader's Account(s) and at Trader's risk. Trader's account(s) shall be charged commissions, at broker's rates, upon the rollover or offset of a Currency position. Trader also acknowledges that the purchase or sale of a Currency always anticipates the accepting or making of delivery, though in most cases the accepting or making of delivery will not actually occur.
5. Price Differences. Trader acknowledges that OTCFX business is not traded on an organized exchange and therefore does not require open-outcry. Even though quotations or prices are afforded by many computer-based component systems, the quotations and prices may vary due to various reasons, including without limitation to spread sizes, markups and markdowns, commissions, fees, delays in transmission and market liquidity.
6. Interest / Premium. Interest on open positions held past 17:00 EST (New York time) may be charged or paid on a daily basis depending on the underlying position. Trader acknowledges that such interest rates shall be determined by GCG, in its sole discretion.
7. Governmental, Counterparty Institution and Interbanking System Rules. All transactions under this Agreement shall be subject to the constitution, by-laws, rules, regulations, customs, usage, rulings and interpretations of the counterparty institution or other interbank market (and its clearing organization, if any) where executed and to all applicable laws and regulations. If any statute shall hereafter be enacted or any rule or regulation shall hereafter be adopted by any governmental authority, or a contract market or clearing organization which shall be binding upon GCG and shall affect in any manner or be inconsistent with any of the provisions hereof, the affected provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed modified or superseded, as the case may be by the applicable provisions of such statute, rule or regulation, and all other provisions of this Agreement and provisions so modified shall in all respects continue in full force and effect. Trader acknowledges that all transactions under this Agreement are subject to the aforementioned regulatory requirements and Trader shall not thereby be given any independent legal or contractual rights with respect to such requirements.
8. Collateral Terms. All currencies, and other tradable instruments of Trader which GCG or its affiliates may at any time be carrying for Trader or which may at any time be in its possession or control or carried on its books for any purpose, including safekeeping, are to be held by GCG as security and subject to a general lien and right of set-off for liabilities of Trader to GCG whether or not GCG has made advances in connection with such currencies or other tradable instruments, and irrespective of the number of accounts Trader may have with GCG. GCG may in its discretion, at any time and from time to time, without notice to Trader, apply and or transfer any or all funds of Trader between any of Trader's accounts. Trader hereby also grants to GCG the right to pledge, re-pledge, hypothecate, invest or loan, either separately or with the property of other Traders, to itself as broker or to others, any funds of Trader held by GCG as margin or security. GCG shall at no time be required to deliver to Trader the identical property delivered to or purchased by GCG for any account of Trader. This authorization shall apply to all accounts carried by GCG for Trader and shall remain in full force until all accounts are fully paid for by Trader or notice of revocation is sent by GCG from its home office.
9. Liquidation of Accounts and Payment of Deficit Balances. In the event of (a) the death or judicial declaration of incompetence of Trader; (b) the filing of a petition in bankruptcy, or a petition for the appointment of a receiver, or the institution of any insolvency or similar proceeding by or against Trader; (c) the filing of an attachment against any of Trader's accounts carried by GCG, (d) insufficient margin, or GCG 's determination that any collateral deposited to protect one or more accounts of Trader is inadequate, regardless of current market quotations, to secure the account; (e) Trader's failure to provide GCG any information requested pursuant to this agreement; or (f) any other circumstances or developments that GCG deems appropriate for its protection, and in GCG 's sole discretion, it may take one or more, or any portion of, the following actions: (1) satisfy any obligation Trader may have to GCG, either directly or by way of guaranty of surety ship, out of any of Trader's funds in its custody or control; (2) sell any or purchase any or all financial instruments held or carried for Trader; and (3) cancel any or all outstanding orders or contracts, or any other commitments made on behalf of Trader. Any of the above actions may be taken without demand for margin or additional margin, without prior notice of sale or purchase or other notice to Trader, Trader's personal representatives, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees, legatees or assigns and regardless of whether the ownership interest shall be solely Trader's or held jointly with others. In liquidation of Trader's long or short positions, GCG may, in its sole discretion, offset in the same settlement or it may initiate new long or short positions in order to establish a spread or straddle which in GCG’s sole judgment may be advisable to protect or reduce existing positions in Trader's account. Any sales or purchases hereunder may be made according to GCG’s judgment and at its discretion with any interbank or other exchange market where such business is then usually transacted or at a public auction or private sale, and GCG may purchase the whole or any part thereof free from any right of redemption. Trader shall at all times be liable for the payment of any deficit balance of Trader upon demand by GCG and in all cases, Trader shall be liable for any deficiency remaining in Trader's account(s) in the event of the liquidation thereof in whole or in part by GCG or by Trader. In the event the proceeds realized pursuant to this authorization are insufficient for the payment of all liabilities of Trader due to GCG, trader shall promptly pay upon demand, the deficit and all unpaid liabilities, together with interest thereon equal to three (3) percentage points above the then prevailing prime rate at GCG 's principal bank or the maximum interest rate allowed by law, whichever is lower, and all costs of collection, including attorney's fees, witness fees, travel expenses and the like. In the event GCG incurs expenses other than for the collection of deficits, with respect to any of the account(s) of Trader, Trader agrees to pay such expenses.

Trader shall pay such brokerage, commission and special service and all other charges (including, without limitation, markups and markdowns, statement charges, idle account charges, order cancellation charges, account transfer charges or other charges), fees (including, without limitation, fees imposed by any interbank agency, bank, contract markets or other regulatory or self-regulatory organizations) arising out of GCG providing services hereunder. GCG may change its commission, charges, and or fees without notice. Trader agrees to be liable to GCG for interest on amounts due from Trader to GCG at an interest rate equal to three (3) percentage points above the then prevailing prime rate at GCG principal bank or the maximum interest rate allowed by law, whichever is lower. All such charges shall be paid by Trader as they are incurred, or as GCG in its sole and absolute discretion, may determine, and Trader hereby authorizes GCG to withdraw the amount of any such charges from Trader's accounts(s). GCG and Trader agree and confirm that all prices quoted to Trader are not inclusive of markups and markdowns.
11. Trading Agent. In the event that Trader grants trading authority or control over Trader's account to a third party (Trading Agent), whether on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis, GCG shall in no way be responsible for reviewing Trader's choice of such Trading Agent or for making any recommendations with respect thereto.
