Token Side Letter

Eligible investors may receive a separate token side letter providing contingent participation rights in a future designated Mālama digital tool (MLMA), if and when launched. Subject to applicable law, completion of Beneficial Technology legal analysis under SEC File Number S7-2026-09, compliance procedures, vesting, lockups, transfer restrictions, and final launch structure. This is not a present digital-tool sale and confers no current rights to MLMA. Regulatory classification of MLMA is subject to ongoing legal review.

Not a present token sale · Howey analysis in progress · Subject to regulatory clarity per jurisdiction
Closing Structure

Rolling closes. Pro-rata rights reserved for seed investors. Three-to-five year target hold period. Series A trigger: 20+ live projects with recurring MRV revenue.

Tokenomics Discipline

Scheduled emissions taper across eight years.

Scheduled MLMA emissions total 60,000,000 (12% of the 500M cap) and taper smoothly across eight years. After the taper, the network is revenue-funded. Many DePIN protocols depend indefinitely on inflation. Mālama is designed not to.

The 500M MLMA hard cap is enforced on-chain. Emergency issuance beyond this cap is not a governance option; it would require a new smart contract deployment and separate investor consent. This is a deliberate design choice to make the model legible and stress-testable for institutional readers.
