#### CRITICAL WARNING

Using Mithril Vaults involves a high risk of loss.\
You could lose all deposited assets.\
Do not deposit more than you can afford to lose.

***

### 1. SUMMARY OF KEY RISKS

* DeFi systems are experimental and may fail unexpectedly.
* Vaults may use perpetual futures and leverage, which can result in liquidation.
* Smart contracts may contain vulnerabilities—audits do not guarantee safety.
* There is no insurance or recourse for blockchain transactions.
* Protocol Fees and other applicable fees reduce overall returns.
* You are solely responsible for your own risk, legal compliance, and taxes.

***

### 2. SMART CONTRACT & DEFI RISKS

* Code Exploits: Reentrancy, oracle manipulation, flash-loan attacks, and front-running may cause total loss.
* Audit Limitations: Even audited contracts can be exploited.
* Dependency Risks: Failures in integrated protocols (examples but not limited to Lighter, Hyperliquid), oracles (Chainlink), or L2 networks (Arbitrum) can cause losses or stuck funds.
* Liquidity Constraints: Withdrawals may be delayed or queued; prices may slip during market stress.

***

### 3. MARKET & TRADING RISKS (SERIES A)

* Leverage Risk: Positions may be liquidated during adverse moves.
* Funding/Basis Risk: Negative funding or price dislocations reduce yield.
* Volatility: Extreme price swings and “black swan” events may occur.
* Execution Risk: Failed or delayed transactions may still incur gas costs.

***

### 4. BLOCKCHAIN & INFRASTRUCTURE RISKS

* Network Failures: Sequencer downtime, congestion, forks, validator failure.
* Oracle Failures: Stale or manipulated price feeds.
* Key Management: Loss of private keys means permanent loss.
* Wallet Vulnerabilities: Phishing, malware, or compromised software.

***

### 5. LEGAL & REGULATORY RISKS

* Evolving Laws: Regulations may change or restrict DeFi participation.
* Jurisdiction: The Trust operates under Próspera ZEDE law, but users must comply with their own jurisdictions.
* Securities/Sanctions Exposure: Vault shares or activities may be deemed securities; sanctioned persons or regions are prohibited.
* AML/KYC: Requirements may be imposed in the future.

***

### 6. OPERATIONAL & GOVERNANCE RISKS

* Strategy Performance: Models may underperform; rebalances may occur at unfavorable times.
* Centralization: Trustees maintain upgrade and emergency powers; no decentralized governance exists.
* Third-Party Providers: Infrastructure or service failures can disrupt access or cause losses.
* Emergency Powers: Trustees may pause, liquidate, or alter vault operations if necessary.

***

### 7. FINANCIAL & LIQUIDITY RISKS

* No Guaranteed Returns: Past performance ≠ future results. Returns can be negative.
* Fees: Performance, management, withdrawal, and 10% Protocol Fees reduce net yield.
* Concentration: Strategies may be exposed to a small number of assets or venues.
* Impermanent Loss: LP or hedging strategies can lose value when withdrawn.

***

### 8. STABLECOIN RISKS (E.G., USDC)

* Peg Risk: USDC or other stablecoins may lose their $1.00 peg.
* Issuer Risk: Circle or banks may freeze or fail to redeem.
* Regulatory Risk: Stablecoins may face new restrictions or oversight.
* Historical Events: USDC briefly de-pegged to $0.87 (March 2023).

***

### 9. TAX RESPONSIBILITY

* User Obligation: All deposits, rewards, and withdrawals may have tax consequences.
* No Advice: The Trust does not provide tax guidance or reporting.
* Consult Professionals: You must determine and satisfy your own obligations.

***

### 10. FORCE MAJEURE & EXTERNAL EVENTS

Events beyond the Trust’s control—including wars, cyberattacks, sanctions, pandemics, disasters, or power/network outages—can cause losses.\
The Trust bears no liability for such external events.

***

### 11. INFORMATION & DISCLOSURE

* On-chain data is public but complex and may be incomplete.
* Audits and proof-of-reserves (if any) are informational only, not guarantees.
* You must perform your own due diligence before depositing.

***
