Common use of Client Clause in Contracts

Client. To the extent Client is a natural person over 18 years of age, if Coinbase receives legal documentation confirming Client’s death or other information leading Coinbase to believe Client is deceased, Coinbase will freeze Client’s Prime Broker Account (“Freeze Period”). During the Freeze Period, no transactions may be completed until: (i) Client’s designated fiduciary has opened a new Prime Broker Account, as further described below, and the entirety of Client’s Prime Broker Account has been transferred to such new Prime Broker Account, or (ii) Client has received proof in a form satisfactory to Coinbase that Client is not deceased. If Coinbase has reason to believe Client is deceased but Coinbase does not have proof of Client’s death in a form satisfactory to Coinbase, Client authorizes Coinbase to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that Coinbase considers necessary to ascertain whether Client is deceased. Upon receipt by Coinbase of proof satisfactory to Coinbase that Client is deceased, the fiduciary Client designated in a valid will or similar testamentary document will be required to open a new Prime Broker Account. If Client has not designated a fiduciary, then Coinbase reserves the right to (i) treat as Client’s fiduciary any person entitled to inherit Client’s Prime Broker Account, as determined by Coinbase upon receipt and review of the documentation Coinbase, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or appropriate, including (but not limited to) a will, a living trust or a Small Estate Affidavit, or (ii) require an order designating a fiduciary from a court having competent jurisdiction over Client’s estate. In the event Coinbase determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that there is uncertainty regarding the validity of the fiduciary designation, Coinbase reserves the right to require an order resolving such issue from a court of competent jurisdiction before taking any action relating to Client’s Prime Broker Account. Pursuant to the above, the opening of a new Prime Broker Account by a designated fiduciary is mandatory following the death of Client, and Client hereby agrees that its fiduciary shall be required to open a new Prime Broker Account and provide required account opening information to gain access to the contents of Client’s Prime Broker Account.
