Version dated November 3, 2025

These Terms of Use (hereinafter referred to as the “TOU“) are concluded between:

• firstly, the Morpho Association, a French Association having its registered office at 24 rue de Clichy 75009 Paris, registered at the National register of associations (Répertoire national des associations) under number W751263773, with EU VAT number FR 44911156933 and SIREN number 911 156 933, duly represented (hereinafter referred to as “Morpho Association”, the “Association”, “Us”, “We”, “Our”),

and, 

• secondly, a natural person or legal entity (hereinafter referred to as the “User“, “You”, “Yours”), who visits or uses Morpho Association’s Sites, Services, Apps and/or Protocols.

Morpho Association and the User are hereafter individually referred to as a “Party” and referred to jointly as the “Parties“.

These TOU – as may be updated from time to time – govern the terms upon which Morpho Association shall provide you with the Services (as defined below). Please read these TOU carefully before you use the Services. By using our Services, you expressly and irrevocably acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted everything outlined herein, including the risks set forth in Article 8.

Important notice: no Services (as defined below) are offered to persons or entities who reside in, are citizens of, are located in, are incorporated in, or have a registered office in a Restricted Territory (as defined below). Use of a virtual private network (“VPN”) to circumvent the restrictions set forth herein is strictly prohibited.

In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in these TOU, capitalized terms will have the meanings indicated below, whether in the singular or plural.

For your information, Morpho Association has also made available a glossary via the following URL: https://docs.morpho.org/ 

• App: means a front-end application to the various Protocols that is hosted by the Morpho Association, including but not limited to all applications accessible through Morpho’s different domains and subdomains (Morpho.org, Morpho.dev).
• Morpho Association: means a software development Association which promotes and works on the development of the Protocol by allowing its decentralization, as the Protocol has been deployed open source.
• APY: means Annual Percentage Yield.
• Blockchain: means a transparent, secure information storage and transmission technology that operates without a central control body. It is not legally defined but constitutes a database containing the history of all exchanges made between its users since its creation. It is distributed, as it is shared by its various users, without intermediaries, enabling anyone to verify the validity of the chain. There are public blockchains, open to all, and private blockchains, whose access and use are limited to a certain number of players. A public blockchain can therefore be likened to a public, anonymous and unforgeable accounting ledger.

The Protocols include but are not limited to:
  • Morpho Optimizer Protocols means a set of DeFi protocols built on an infrastructure of smart contracts written in IT languages stored in a Blockchain and automatically executed. The Morpho Optimizer Protocols are peer-to-peer layers built on top of supply pools such as Compound and Aave and work as supply pools optimizers. 
  • Morpho Markets Protocols means a set of decentralized noncustodial protocols enabling the supplying and borrowing of Crypto-assets. They are onchain trustless primitives. 
  • Morpho Vaults Protocols (including the Protocol formerly known as MetaMorpho) means a set of protocols for noncustodial risk management. Interacting with the Morpho Vaults Protocols provides passive and risk-adjusted user experience.
• Services: means the services provided to the Users by Morpho Association subject to these TOU, including but not limited to the Apps and/or Protocols. 
• Site or collectively the Sites: means the websites and/or URLs published by Morpho Association and made accessible to Users on different Morpho.org and Morpho.dev domains.

• Wallet: means a digital storage unit that grants Users access to their crypto-assets and that allows them to store, send, and receive crypto-assets. When using the Services, Morpho Association has no control over Users’ Wallets and may not be held responsible for their use, as Users own, set up and manage their own Wallets independently. Wallet external services providers may – for instance – be: MetaMask, Wallet Connect, Trezor, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, XDEFI Wallet, etc. 

The Site provides resources about the fundamentals of the Protocols and provides information about the ecosystem, governance, DAO, community, and various interfaces and integrations to the Protocols.

The User hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Services are based on protocols and technologies which are inherently subject to rapid and recurrent developments. In light of the frequency and multiplicity of such updates, it is not feasible to provide within these TOU an exhaustive description. 

Accordingly, the User is required to consult, on a regular basis, the technical documentation made available in Morpho’s Documentation https://docs.morpho.org/, which constitutes a reliable source of information regarding the characteristics, evolution, and functioning of the said Protocols.

Please note that links to documents published by Morpho Association (including blog posts, data, articles, links to third-party content, discord content, news feeds, tutorials, tweets, and videos) have been made available in order to provide you with information on the Protocols and how they work. These links and resources are non-contractual and provided for informational purposes only. 

Although we strive to communicate in a clear, precise and non-misleading manner, You should not take, or refrain from taking, any action based on any information contained on the Site or any other information that we make available at any time, including blog posts, data, articles, links to third-party content, discord content, news feeds, tutorials, tweets, and videos.

Important notice: Morpho Association is not a financial, credit, or investment institution and is not subject to supervision under the EU Regulation on Markets in Crypto-Assets (“MiCA”) or any other financial regulatory regime. The Protocols operates as decentralized software infrastructure, and its use does not constitute a regulated financial service or activity.

Important notice: BY ACCESSING OR USING ANY OF THE SITES AND SERVICES YOU ARE ENTERING INTO A BINDING AGREEMENT WITH US THAT INCLUDES THESE TOU. 

To the extent that there is a conflict between these TOU and any applicable additional documents, these TOU will apply unless expressly stated otherwise. 

If you don’t agree with these TOU, you may not use the Services and should not visit the Sites or otherwise engage with the Services.

We strongly recommend that you do not use the Sites, the Protocols or the Apps, if you are not an expert in crypto-assets and Blockchain technology. By using the App or otherwise accessing the Sites, you shall be deemed to acknowledge that you do so with full consent and full knowledge of these TOU having first read these TOU entirely and your participation will be deemed to be your unequivocal and express agreement to be bound by these TOU.

To use the Services, you must legally be able to enter into the TOU. By using the Services you represent and warrant that you meet the eligibility requirement, as provided in section 19 below. If you do not meet the requirement, you must not access or use the Sites. 

We may update any part of the TOU at any time, for any reason, at our sole discretion. Once any part of the TOU is updated and in effect, you will be bound by the TOU if you continue to use the Services including by accessing the Sites and using the Apps. We may, at any time, and without liability to you, modify or discontinue all or part of the Services. You may contact us with questions about your use of the Services at contact@morpho.xyz. When you communicate with us electronically, you consent to receive communications from us electronically. 

YOU SHOULD REVIEW THE TOU FROM TIME TO TIME TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THE TOU AND CONDITIONS THAT APPLY TO YOU WHEN YOU ACCESS OR USE THE SITES AND SERVICES.

The Protocols are immutable, permissionless, autonomous, transparent and auditable by all. The Protocols are controlled solely by the Morpho Token Holders. The Morpho Association does not control or operate any version of any Protocol on any Blockchain network.

Morpho Protocol refers collectively to the non-custodial smart-contract systems that (i) operate isolated and permissionless lending markets (“Markets”), and (ii) provide Vaults that receive User deposits and allocate such deposits across supported onchain opportunities.

This includes (i) Vaults v1 (MetaMorpho), which are ERC-4626-compliant Vaults designed to route deposits across multiple Markets within the risk parameters established by the relevant Curator and Allocator, and (ii) Vaults v2, which are protocol-agnostic, adapter-based Vaults implementing role-segregated management and capable of allocating assets to Morpho Markets, Vaults v1, or other supported protocols.

For clarity, the Protocols are non-custodial, self-executing smart contracts deployed and managed independently; yields/returns are not guaranteed; positions may be liquidated per Market parameters; deposits and withdrawals are subject to onchain liquidity.

The Services provided by Morpho Association include the Services set forth below, any other App offered by the Morpho Association through morpho.org, and any other features, tools, resources, communications, support, or functionalities provided by the Morpho Association from time to time, whether through the Site, the Apps, or by other means (including but not limited to informational content, technical support, or user assistance). 

The access and use of the Services described below may require the User to connect a Wallet, by clicking on the relevant tab “Connect your wallet”. 

Users acknowledge and agree that the Services provided by Morpho Association are limited to granting Users the access to the Apps.
By using the Apps, you understand and acknowledge that Morpho Association does not control or operate any version of any Protocol on any Blockchain network.
You also acknowledge that the Morpho Association does not setup, manage, allocate or operate any Morpho Vault or any Morpho Markets. Risk management is performed externally, hence any adverse outcomes, such as fund losses from technical issues or poor management do not affect Morpho Association which may not be held liable.

The web and API interfaces run by the Morpho Association (the “Apps”) that let Users read information from – and submit transactions to – the permissionless Morpho Protocols across supported blockchains.

Through these Apps, Users can (i) deposit into Vaults, (ii) borrow assets in Markets, and (iii) where applicable, deploy and operate Vaults in a non-custodial manner via onchain roles.

The Morpho Association provides only these interfaces and does not control, operate, or run any version of the Protocols or any Vaults; those are decentralized smart contracts governed onchain and, for Vaults, administered by onchain roles (e.g., Owner/Curator/Allocator as described in Article 1).

Additional Apps may be made available to enable Users to interact with further functionalities of the Protocol, including, without limitation:

• Delegation: allowing Users to delegate their tokens for governance purposes;
• Liquidation: enabling Users to monitor the health of positions within Markets and to initiate liquidations where a position’s LTV meets or exceeds the Market’s LLTV;
• Migration: permitting Users to migrate positions across different Markets or Protocols; and
• Deleveraging: allowing third parties, under certain conditions, to partially or fully unwind a User’s position.

The Services and any information displayed are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties (including as to accuracy, completeness, reliability, or uptime).

Third-Party Services (including Rewards). Certain features or sections of the Sites/Apps (for example, Rewards) may be developed, hosted, operated, or supplied by independent third parties. Your use of those services is subject to their separate terms and privacy policies, and your relationship is solely with the applicable third party. Morpho Association does not control, endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for the availability, accuracy, reliability, or performance of third-party services, content, data, or campaigns surfaced through the Apps, and disclaims any liability for losses arising from their use. 

The Morpho Association does not charge any fee for any Service, but there may be other fees (charged by third parties) associated with the use of the Sites and/or the Protocols. For example:

• There may be associated blockchain fees. Using the Protocol may require that the User must pay a fee on the Blockchain to perform a transaction, such as gas charges or gas fees, which are essentially transaction fees paid on every transaction that occurs on the selected Blockchain network. The User is informed that gas fees are non-refundable. The User must ensure that he/she has sufficient balance to complete any transaction on the Protocol before initiating such transaction.
• There may be performance fees associated with Morpho Vaults (the “Performance Fees”). A Performance Fee may be set in the sole discretion of a Vault’s Owner. The Performance Fee is calculated as a percentage (up to a limit of 50%) of the generated yield. Performance Fees can be claimed by a fee recipient address determined by the Vault’s Owner. For more information on the Performance Fees, please consult the following link: https://docs.morpho.org/.
• There may be management fees associated with Morpho Vaults (the “Management Fees”). Certain Vaults charge an ongoing management fee – set by the applicable Curator – that is calculated on the Vault’s total deposits/assets and accrues regardless of performance.
  The fee accrues pro-rata over time at the annualized rate set by the Curator and is periodically collected from the Vault.
  Management fees are in addition to any other fees. The applicable rate and recipients are set by the Curator per onchain permissions, with changes taking effect prospectively as disclosed. The Morpho Association does not set, receive, or control any management fees.

Vault fees set by Curators. All Vault-level fees, including any performance or management fees, are determined exclusively by the applicable Curator (or any other onchain role vested with fee-setting authority). Such fees are paid directly to the fee recipient address designated by that Curator.

The Morpho Association does not set, collect, receive, hold, or direct any Vault-related fees. Fee parameters and recipient addresses are programmatically enforced by the Vault smart contracts and are transparently viewable both in-app and onchain. Any modification to fee parameters may only be executed by the Curator (or another authorized onchain role) in accordance with their onchain permissions.

The User acknowledges and agrees that Morpho Association has no control over any transactions, the method of payment of any transactions, or any actual payments of transactions. Morpho Association does not deliver, hold, and/or receive payment of crypto-assets and does not receive any fees for any transactions, the Services, or the Sites. 

Additionally, the User acknowledges that all information provided in connection with your APY and estimated yield is for informational purposes only.

Before you make any financial, legal, technical, or other decisions involving the Services, you should seek independent professional advice from a licensed and qualified individual in the area for which such advice would be appropriate. The Services provide, or third parties may provide, links to other sites, applications, or resources. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for the availability of such external sites, applications or resources, and do not endorse and are not responsible or liable for any content, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such sites or resources. 

You further acknowledge and agree that we bear no liability, directly or indirectly, on the way you have obtained or acquired the crypto-assets that you are supplying as collateral. Users are solely responsible for ensuring that they are allowed to hold and use those crypto-assets in accordance with the regulations of their respective jurisdictions.

You further acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services available on or through any such site or resource. Because the Site provides information about the Protocols, these TOU also provide some information about the use of the Protocols. This information is not intended to be comprehensive or address all aspects of the Protocols. There is additional documentation on the Site about the functioning of the Protocols or its ecosystem or community.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT NEITHER WE NOR ANY AFFILIATED ENTITY IS A PARTY TO ANY TRANSACTION ON THE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS UNDERLYING THE PROTOCOL; WE DO NOT HAVE POSSESSION, CUSTODY OR CONTROL OVER ANY CRYPTO-ASSETS APPEARING ON THE TRANSACTIONS; AND WE DO NOT HAVE POSSESSION, CUSTODY, OR CONTROL OVER ANY USER’S CRYPTO-ASSETS.

Further, we do not store, send, or receive any crypto-assets. You understand that when you interact with any Protocol’s smart contracts, you retain control over your crypto-assets at all times. The private key associated with the wallet address from which you transfer crypto-assets or the private key associated is the only private key that can control the crypto-assets you transfer into the smart contracts. 

You alone are responsible for securing your private keys. We do not have access to your private keys. Due to the non-custodial and decentralized nature of the technology, we are not intermediaries, agents, advisors, or custodians, and we do not have a fiduciary relationship or obligation to you regarding any other decisions or activities that you affect when using our Services. You acknowledge that we, for the avoidance of doubt, do not have any information regarding any users, users’ identities, or services beyond what is available or obtainable publicly via the blockchain. We are not responsible for any activities you engage in when using Services, and you should understand the risks associated with crypto-assets, blockchain technology generally, and our Services.

THE PROTOCOL MAY BE DEPLOYED ON MULTIPLE BLOCKCHAIN-BASED NETWORKS, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OPERATION OF SUCH NETWORKS.

The software underlying blockchain networks on which the Protocol is deployed, including, for example, the Ethereum blockchain, is open source, which means that anyone can use, utilize, and build on top of it. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that:

1. we are not responsible for the operation of the blockchain-based software and networks underlying the Protocol; 
2. there exists no guarantee of the functionality, security, or availability of that software and networks; and 
3. the underlying blockchain-based networks are subject to sudden changes in operating rules, such as those commonly referred to as “forks”.

Transactions on the blockchain are not anonymous.

A widespread belief is that transactions involving blockchains are anonymous. In fact, a central feature of blockchains and thus, blockchain-based transactions, are that they are transparent. Your public key and your wallet address, which you need to buy or sell items on the blockchain, are visible to anyone. To the extent your public key or wallet address can be linked back to you, it would be possible for someone to determine your identity and the crypto-assets you own.

Morpho Association ecosystem and community contributors are independent.

All community contributors to the ecosystem around the Protocol are independent of us, and we will not have and do not assume any liability or responsibility for their actions or omissions.

The following section outlines key risks associated with accessing or using the Services. While the Morpho Association makes its best efforts to provide a clear and comprehensive overview, this list of risks is not exhaustive. There may be other risks, known or unknown, inherent to blockchain technologies, smart contracts, or decentralized finance (“DeFi”) that are not expressly mentioned here. By using the Services, you acknowledge and accept that Morpho Association cannot foresee or list all possible risks, and that you are solely responsible for assessing whether the Services are appropriate given your specific situation.

Blockchain & Smart Contract Risk. Users of the Apps interact directly with blockchain-based smart contracts. All transactions are automatically processed by smart contracts, and at no time does the Morpho Association custody or control your funds or assets. You acknowledge that these smart contracts govern how crypto-assets and funds are transferred—without manual intervention or refunds from the Morpho Association. By using the Services, you accept all risks associated with new and experimental technologies like smart contracts and blockchain-based systems. These technologies, especially crypto-assets, are inherently volatile and blockchain-based systems may experience errors, bugs, cyberattacks, smart contract vulnerabilities, forks, attacks, downtime, or failures—potentially leading to a total loss of your crypto-assets or funds. By using the Apps, you acknowledge these risks and agree that Morpho Association is not liable for any resulting damages.

Irreversible Transactions. Blockchain entries are permanent and immutable. Once confirmed, transactions (including crypto-assets transfers and programmed data) cannot be undone by you, us, or anyone. Double-check before finalizing any transaction.

Wallet Security. You are fully responsible for securing your crypto-assets, wallet and private keys. Any unauthorized access may lead to loss or theft of your crypto-assets. We have no control over, and no liability for, the security of your wallet.

Third-Party Tools. We are not responsible for third-party tools and or services (e.g., MetaMask, Discord, or other Users who interact with the Protocols) or any errors, losses, or inaccuracies that result from using them. Morpho Association further disclaims responsibility for any failure or asset losses caused by third-party services integrated with or linked to the Apps. Third-party services may be governed by separate terms of use with such third-party provider.

Service and Data Availability. Access to the Apps and the Services may be interrupted or unavailable due to technical failures, maintenance, or third-party issues. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access or the quality of any feature. Data displayed within the Apps, including market metrics and Vault configurations, may be delayed, incomplete, or contain errors due to technical malfunctions, bugs, or external disruptions. Users are solely responsible for verifying critical details independently before taking actions. Morpho Association disclaims liability for any losses arising from technical issues, inaccuracies, market conditions, or User mismanagement. 

No Financial Advice. Decisions made by the Morpho Association or any User are not personalized or based on your individual financial situation. You must do your own research and due diligence before using any part of the Services.

Use at Your Own Risk. All use of the Services, Apps, or Protocols is at your sole risk. You acknowledge that blockchain-based transactions may not be suitable for everyone. We disclaim all liability for any loss or damage resulting from your use of the Services. 

Regulation. Users should note that DeFi services are only partially regulated today and remain subject to evolving legal and regulatory frameworks. The Morpho Association is not a financial, credit, or investment institution and is not subject to supervision or authorization under MiCA or any other financial or monetary regulatory framework. The Protocols operates as decentralized software infrastructure and the Morpho Association does not provide, offer, or facilitate any regulated financial service or activity. Users access and interact with the Services / Apps / Protocols at their own discretion and risk. Each User is solely responsible for assessing and complying with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

You are responsible for your taxes and duties. Users bear sole responsibility for paying any and all taxes, duties, and assessments now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any governmental authority associated with their use of the Services, and/or payable as the result of using and/or exploiting any crypto-assets and interacting with smart contracts. 

We grant you a license to use our Services. Contingent upon your ongoing compliance with the TOU, we grant you a personal, worldwide, revocable, non-exclusive and non-assignable license to use the software provided to you as part of our Services.

• engaging in any anticompetitive behavior or other misconduct.

Violating our rules may result in our intervention. You agree and acknowledge that if you use the Services to engage in conduct prohibited by applicable law, we permanently reserve the right to completely or partially restrict or revoke your access to the Services, either completely or for a period of time, at our sole discretion. 

We reserve the right to investigate violations. We reserve the right to investigate and prosecute any suspected breaches of these TOU. We may disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.

Responsibility for Vault configuration. Morpho Association provides the tools and functionalities enabling the Owner to configure the Vault. However, the Owner bears sole responsibility for the proper use of such tools and for ensuring compliance with all applicable obligations. This responsibility also extends to any Curator appointed by the Owner.

Appointment of Curator. The Owner remains solely responsible for the choice of any Curator and shall exercise due care in such appointment. Morpho shall bear no liability for the Owner’s selection of a Curator.

Listing and display of Vaults. Morpho Association does not guarantee that any Vault will be listed or displayed. While non-contractual criteria may be published in Morpho’s documentation, such criteria shall not be binding on Morpho.

Liability for data accuracy. The Curator shall remain responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and reliability of all data it provides or maintains in relation to the Vault.

No guarantee of access. Morpho Association does not guarantee that all Users will have access to any Vault operated by a Curator. A warning shall be displayed to Users to this effect. Morpho only operates the application layer and assumes a duty of vigilance in that respect, but does not guarantee universal accessibility.

No corporate information. Morpho does not possess or provide corporate, legal, or identifying information about Owners or Curators. Users acknowledge that such information is outside the scope of Morpho’s Services.

Adoption of Registry. For a Vault to be designated as a Morpho Vault, the Owner must adopt the Morpho Registry (the “Registry”), which lists the protocols eligible to connect to the Vault, approved by the Morpho DAO.

No modification right. By adopting the Registry, the Owner irrevocably waives any right or capacity to amend, alter, or otherwise modify the Registry.

All disputes arising between the Morpho Association and any User out of the validity, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation and/or application of these TOU or resulting directly or indirectly from the use of the Services are governed by the laws of France (the “Applicable Law”).

This provision applies to all substantive and procedural rules, regardless of whether the obligations performed occurred in whole or in part in any other jurisdiction.

In the absence of an amicable resolution, the Judicial Courts of Paris (Tribunal Judiciaire de Paris) shall have sole competence to hear disputes arising – with Users who qualify as consumers within the meaning of Applicable Law and are domiciled within the European Union – out of from the validity, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation and/or application of these TOU or resulting directly or indirectly from the use of the Sites, the Services, the Apps or the Protocols (the “Competent Jurisdiction”).

In case of dispute as to the validity, interpretation or execution of the TOU, the Parties will make every effort to find an amicable solution.

Any User who is a consumer – within the meaning of applicable law – may, free of charge, refer to the services of a consumer mediator with a view to the amicable resolution of a dispute with Morpho Association.

A dispute may only be examined by the consumer mediator if:

• the User justifies having tried, beforehand, to resolve his dispute directly with Morpho Association by a written complaint expressly identified as such detailing the reasons for his complaint as well as all the information useful to Morpho Association to understand, study and appreciate the causes, consequences and incidences of this complaint, and sent by e-mail to: contact@morpho.xyz

Furthermore, the User is informed that in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No. 524/2013, the European Commission has set up an Online Dispute Resolution platform, facilitating the independent settlement by extrajudicial means of online disputes between consumers and professionals in the European Union. This platform is accessible at the following link: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr/.

Any class actions or any group actions shall not be authorized under the present TOU, which Users expressly and irrevocably accept.

Accordingly, You hereby expressly, knowingly, and irrevocably waive any right to initiate, participate in, or benefit from any class, collective, or representative action or proceeding—whether as a named plaintiff, class member, or otherwise—against the Morpho Association before any court, tribunal, or arbitral forum, irrespective of the nature of the claims asserted.

Notwithstanding the above, if You qualify as a consumer within the meaning of Applicable Law and are domiciled within the European Union, this clause shall not prevent you to initiate or take part in a class action, provided that such action is brought exclusively before the Competent Jurisdiction and is authorized under Applicable Law, as nothing in this clause shall be construed as limiting or excluding any non-waivable rights or remedies to which You may be entitled under mandatory provisions of Applicable Law.

In the absence of an amicable resolution, all disputes – with Users who qualify as professionals within the meaning of Applicable Law and consumers who are not domiciled within the European Union – arising out of or in connection with the present TOU shall be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the said Rules (the “Arbitration Clause”). The emergency arbitrator provisions shall not apply. The expedited procedure provisions shall not apply. No award or procedural order made in the arbitration shall be published. The place of establishment of the tribunal shall be Paris. The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in English. The number of arbitrators will be one. The Parties will share equally the costs of arbitration, but each Party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and related costs, unless otherwise provided by law or statute. The Parties agree that any action that may not be submitted to arbitration under applicable law will be tried by a court of competent jurisdiction located in France, and the Parties submit to the jurisdiction of France for this limited purpose.
