THE FRONTIER OF IMPACT FINANCE

TREE Token is an investment platform for impact finance projects. On this platform, qualified investors can invest in profitable and impactful projects, efficiently monitored and managed thanks to blockchain technology. The first product offered on the platform is a tokenized fund investing in agroforestry projects in Peru and Colombia. This document is targeted to Venture Capital and qualified investors: we are looking for 2 million euros in seed capital (in FIAT currency) to fund the development of the platform that will manage the tokenized fund and propose progressively direct tokenized impact investments. The platform aims to become the leading marketplace for impact finance, powered by blockchain technology. Invest in the future of Impact Finance, welcome to TREE Token.

THE OPPORTUNITY

We stand at the cross-roads of powerful underlying trends:

  • Investors, both institutional and retail, are increasingly attentive to non-monetary aspects
  • f their portfolio, but often lack a direct access to high impact projects that offer

attractive risk profiles.

  • Multinationals are under pressure to develop sustainable and traceable supply chains

and hence are eager to fund impact projects that will reinforce the stability of their providers operations.

  • Technology is transforming the role and scope of finance, by providing the tools for

increased transparency, unlimited scaling, and higher efficiency.

OUR SOLUTION (1/2)

We are developing a marketplace for impact finance projects, executed on the blockchain to

  • ffer:
  • Direct investments into projects with high impact that are integrated into larger

sustainable supply chains.

  • Higher transparency and trust on both financial returns and impacts thanks to the

blockchain technology.

  • Automation, flexibility & unlimited potential to scale up the platform and the fund

thanks to the tokenization of the financial contracts.

OUR SOLUTION (2/2)

On the investment side of the marketplace:

  • Investment are targeted towards a large variety of small-scale agroforestry projects.
  • Capital is provided through a profit participation contract that allows risk sharing

between farmers and investors.

  • Contract has a fixed horizon to give back full control to the farmers in the midterm.

On the financing side of the marketplace:

  • Investors can invest in a diversified fund, or, in a second stage, in specific projects picked

individually, under a tokenized format.

  • Investors can monitor in total trust both financial returns and impacts generated by the

projects they funded, and the waterfall of benefits linked to their token.

THE ROLE OF AGROFORESTRY

  • Today, more than 10 million trees are cut and burnt every day to plant crops, destroying

invaluable biodiversity for low short term pay-offs.

  • However, planting trees in combination with crops in a sustainable approach can generate

much more financial, social and environmental value: this is called agroforestry.

  • Agroforestry projects can typically be implemented at large scale by coordinating multiple

small scale farmers or collaborating with cooperatives.

  • PUR Projet, our lead project manager, has the technical expertise and the relationships with

local organizations and farmers required to efficiently seed such projects.

TREE Token Dynamic Agroforestry model : combining the plantation of trees and crops to maximize financial returns. Intercropping provides significant returns over and above what trees and crops alone can produce. This agricultural model is more resilient, better adapted to climate change and generates multiple marketable products & ecosystem regeneration services (Co2, water, biodiversity,..).

Mid-term return : after 3 to 5 years

REFORESTATION ACTIVITIES (Circled) REFORESTATION & AGROFORESTRY (2008-Present) Since 2008, PUR Projet has both developed a local association, Fundacion Amazonia Viva, and worked with local large-scale small farmers cooperatives. Acopagro & Oro Verde undertake ARR activities with local San Martin Farmers. Planting activities have supported mixed stand reforestation, as well as agroforestry intercropping within cocoa and coffee agricultural parcels. 4 million treess planted. FOREST CONSERVATION ACTIVITIES (Shaded Green) CONSERVATION UNDER REDD+ (2010-Present) PUR Projet, in partnership with Fundacion Amazonia Viva, arranged the allocation of 400,000 ha of primary Amazonian rainforest to local communities as conservation concessions. These areas of high conservation value are protected and maintain ecosystem services provided to local communities. Project Partners:
