2.1.5. Ecitizen Annual Gratuity

(Gratuity Pool)

The annual gratuity is one of the reward mechanisms for eCitizen memberships on the Digital Platform and will follow a digressive scheme to promote early adoption. In this context, a pool composed of a total of 250,000,000 4IR Tokens (the "Gratuity Pool") will be allocated to eCitzens.

The first 100,000 eCitizens who subscribe will receive an annual gratuity of five (5) 4IR Tokens each year when they renew their membership, at whatever 4IR Token value on renewal date. Renewal of the eCitizen membership is imperative to receive the same gratuity. These conditions will apply for the following ranges but the amount of 4IR Tokens perceived will decrease (see Table 1).

This mechanism will be interesting for newcomers after the Offer phase and helps towards organic growth of eCitizens and subsequently raising the interest of companies looking to interact and communicate with them. Additionally, this model leads to an increase in circulating token supply, based on new Users, causing a healthy influx of new tokens based on ecosystem usage. Once these 250,000,000 4IR Tokens are fully allocated in the context of this reward mechanism and then the Gratuity Pool is depleted, no new 4IR Tokens will be allocated to the Gratuity Pool.
