Pre-Engagement Disclaimer

Last Updated: April 2026

This Pre-Engagement Disclaimer (“Disclaimer”) applies to all preliminary communications, submissions, inquiries, requests, calls, meetings, emails, or exchanges of information involving Global Mountain Group LLC (“Company”, “GMG”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) before a formal written agreement has been signed by the Company.

By contacting the Company or submitting information, you acknowledge and agree to the principles set out below.

1. Purpose of This Disclaimer

This Disclaimer is intended to define the legal, operational, and compliance boundaries that apply before any engagement is formally accepted.

Its purpose is to:

• prevent assumptions of obligation or availability
• clarify that preliminary contact does not create a business relationship
• protect the Company during initial review, screening, and evaluation
• confirm that all engagement decisions remain subject to discretion and compliance review

2. No Offer, No Acceptance, No Engagement

Any information provided by the Company before a signed written agreement is for preliminary and informational purposes only.

Nothing communicated before formal acceptance shall be interpreted as:

• an offer or acceptance
• a binding quotation or commitment
• confirmation of feasibility, legality, or availability
• confirmation of scope, capability, jurisdiction, timing, or delivery
• creation of a client, advisory, agency, fiduciary, professional, or contractual relationship

Only a formal written agreement executed by the Company may create binding obligations.

3. Absolute Discretion to Engage or Decline

The Company retains full discretion to determine whether to:

• respond or not respond to any inquiry
• continue, pause, or stop discussions
• request more information
• decline a matter without explanation

The Company is under no obligation to provide reasons, feedback, status updates, timelines, or justification for any decision made at the pre-engagement stage.

Silence, delay, or non-response does not imply approval, interest, or rejection.

4. Screening and Due Diligence Before Engagement

All potential matters may be subject to internal review before any engagement is accepted.

This may include, where relevant:

• identity and authority checks
• counterparty legitimacy review
• jurisdictional and territorial assessment
• end-user and end-use review
• sanctions and regulatory screening
• legal, compliance, reputational, and operational risk review

The Company may request additional information at any time. Failure or refusal to provide relevant information may result in refusal or discontinuation of evaluation.

5. No Reliance on Preliminary Communications

Any preliminary statements, descriptions, opinions, timing indications, or general views expressed before formal engagement:

• are non-binding
• may be incomplete or conditional
• may change without notice
• are provided without warranty of completeness or suitability

You agree not to rely on preliminary communications for legal, financial, operational, commercial, or strategic decisions.

6. No Professional Advice Before Formal Acceptance

Before a written engagement is in place, the Company does not provide formal:

• legal advice
• regulatory or compliance advice
• tax or financial advice
• technical or engineering advice
• operational or logistical advice
• project, digital, cross-border, market-entry, or related services

Any action taken before formal engagement is at your own risk.

7. Right to Refuse or Discontinue Without Liability

The Company may refuse, suspend, or discontinue any pre-engagement discussion or review if, in its sole judgment:

• compliance issues arise
• jurisdictional or regulatory restrictions apply
• risk becomes unacceptable
• information supplied is incomplete, inconsistent, or misleading
• the matter falls outside internal policy, standards, or risk tolerance

To the fullest extent permitted by law, such refusal or discontinuation does not create liability for the Company.

8. No Confidentiality Unless Agreed in Writing

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, no confidentiality obligation applies to information submitted before formal engagement.

You should not send restricted, confidential, privileged, classified, or highly sensitive information unless specifically requested under an appropriate written framework.

9. No Exclusivity or Priority

Pre-engagement contact does not create exclusivity, priority status, continuity, or preferential treatment of any kind.

The Company may review, discuss, or pursue other matters at any time.

10. Reservation of Rights

All rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Company. Failure to enforce any part of this Disclaimer does not constitute a waiver.

11. Governing Law

Unless mandatory law requires otherwise, this Disclaimer is governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America.
