U.S. Residents

Tether decided to stop serving individual and corporate customers from the U.S. As of January 1, 2018, no issuance or redeeming services will be available to Residents or Citizens of the U.S.

Exceptions to these provisions may be made by Tether, in its sole discretion, for entities that are:

• Established or organized outside of the United States or its territorial or insular possessions; and,

• Eligible Contract Participants pursuant to U.S. law.

An Eligible Contract Participant includes a corporation with total assets exceeding $10,000,000 and incorporated in a jurisdiction outside the United States or its territories or insular possessions. These exceptions will be the principal basis upon which we will continue to do business with selected U.S. persons.
