<title>Autonomys Network Ambassador Program Bylaws - Article 2</title>
<h2 id="article2">Article 2. Roles of Ambassadors</h2>
<p>Ambassadors are people who have demonstrated an interest in and ability to help accomplish the Mission and Objectives
of the Program and who have been selected by the selection procedures outlined herein.</p>
<ol>
<li>Applicant Selection. Any member of the community may apply to begin the process of becoming an Ambassador. Each
Applicant must provide information to present their skills and experience, how they would like to contribute to
the program, and must provide their legal name, an actively monitored email address, and an active Discord
handle. The Applicant’s legal name must be the name used on the Ambassador Agreement and for any required Know
Your Customer validation that occurs prior to token issuance. Apprentice Ambassadors will be selected from the
Applicants, and Ambassadors will be selected from the Apprentices after an apprenticeship period. The selection
of Apprentices and Ambassadors shall be according to a transparent procedure defined by the Onboarding and
Growth Team.</li>
<li>Ambassador Term. Each Ambassador is expected to commit to the role for 4 years. Each ambassador that joined
under the Legacy Ambassador Token Grant period is expected to commit to the role for 2 years. Ambassadors may
re-apply to serve in subsequent terms after completion of any term.</li>
<li>Selection of Lead Ambassadors. An Ambassador may be selected to be a Lead Ambassador within an Official Team by
a vote of the Ambassadors within the team. Any Ambassadors may apply for a Lead vacancy by presenting their
ideas and plans to the team, and the decision will be made using simple majority in case of 1 or 2 candidates,
or may use ranked choice or simple majority in case of more than 2 candidates. The election for a Lead
Ambassador must be advertised at least 30 days in advance with a call for nominations, and the election shall be
held within 45 days of the vacancy unless another election date shall be set by a vote of the majority of the
current Lead Ambassadors plus the Sponsor Representative. No vacancy shall be left open for more than six months
without holding an election.</li>
<li>Representatives. Teams may send various Representatives to participate in other teams, to represent the team on
the Agenda Team, or for other purposes. A Representative is expected to represent the interests of the Team, the
Ambassador Program, and the Network. Representatives should be elected using the same procedure as the Selection
of Lead Ambassadors.</li>
<li id="section5">Rights of Ambassadors.</li>
<ol>
<li>Legacy Ambassador Token Grant.
<strong>Ambassadors joining the program prior to October 2023 receive the Legacy Ambassador Token
Grant.</strong>
Ambassadors under the Legacy grant will earn up to 0.00526% of the total token supply during their 2-year
term. The allocation per quarter shall be: 1) 0.00219%, 2) 0.00076%, 3) 0.00063%, 4) 0.00042%, 5) 0.00036%,
6) 0.00032%, 7) 0.00029%, and 8) 0.00029%. Vesting for the Legacy Ambassador Token Grant is over two years,
including a 6-month cliff vest of 25%, with the remainder vesting evenly per month over the following 18
months. All tokens are subject to a six (6) month lock-up and may not be transferred or withdrawn until 6
months after Mainnet Beta commences. Vesting starts on the day the ambassador is admitted to the Program.
All allocations under the Legacy Ambassador Token Grant ceased incremental grants or accrual on December 31,
2023, and vesting shall continue until the end of the relevant Ambassadors vesting term. All further vesting
will cease upon Termination of an Ambassador. Illustrative examples include the following.
<ol>
<li>If an Ambassador participated in the program for 6 months and a day, then left, they would be
allocated
.00219% + .00076 = .00295%, and since they left the program after 6 months, they would be 25%
vested.
After mainnet and the 6-month lockup period per the Distribution of Tokens have passed, the example
Ambassador would receive SSC equivalent to 0.0007375% of the token supply.</li>
<li>For the same scenario as above, if the Ambassador had joined the program on October 1, 2023, the
Ambassador would receive just the first quarter allocation of .00219%, which would still be 25%
vested
and the Ambassador would instead receive 0.0005475%.</li>
</ol>
<li>Ambassador Token Grant.
<strong>Ambassadors admitted to the program on or after January 1, 2024</strong>
will be allocated an award that shall vest over 4 years with a six-month cliff vesting 12.5% and the
remaining 87.5% vesting monthly over the remaining 42 months. All tokens are subject to a six (6) month
lock-up and may not be transferred or withdrawn until 6 months after Mainnet Beta commences. All further
vesting will cease upon Termination of an Ambassador. The size of the award shall be determined based on
when the Ambassador is selected as an Apprentice Ambassador, according to the following table. The Award
will be granted and vesting will begin on the date that the Apprentice is promoted to Ambassador and
admitted as an Ambassador to the Program.

<li>Role Assignment. Ambassadors will be granted roles in relevant communications platforms to allow them to
speak as Ambassadors in the community.</li>
<li>Team Participation. Ambassadors may self-select to participate in any Official or Ad hoc Team.</li>
</ol>
<li>Obligations of Ambassadors.</li>
<ol>
<li>Working Hours. Ambassadors are required to contribute at least 16 hours of work within 4 calendar weeks
(4 hours per week is normally expected, with allowances for periods of higher and lower contribution
spread out over a few weeks to accommodate temporary absence.) </li>
<li>Proactive Contribution. Ambassadors are expected to identify their skills such that other Ambassadors
are aware of their abilities, and are to proactively identify and pursue opportunities to leverage their
skills to contribute to the Mission of the Program. </li>
<li>Active in Community. Ambassadors are expected to be active and visible participants in the community
across the various community spaces and to contribute to an environment that is welcoming,
permissionless, decentralized, and egalitarian. </li>
<li>Governance Participation. Ambassadors must participate in the Peer Review Process, fulfilling their
obligations as both submitter and reviewer. Ambassadors must vote in General Assemblies, and in votes
presented to the Teams they participate in. Failure by any Ambassador to vote in at least ⅔ of the votes
before the General Assembly, and at least ⅔ of the votes in their Team(s), is cause for a Complaint
under the Conflict Resolution Process.</li>
<li>Network Participation. Ambassadors must continuously run a farmer on the Network.</li>
<li>Attendance. Ambassadors must attend ⅔ of designated All-Hands meetings for teams they participate in and
for the Program as a whole. All-Hands meetings shall not be more frequent than every two weeks for any
Team or for the Program. An ambassador is considered to have attended an All-Hands meeting that is
recorded if they watch the recording and demonstrate asynchronous participation with the topics
discussed in other communications channels.</li>
<li>Monitored Communications. Ambassadors must monitor announcements and emails from Sponsor and the
Program, and must keep Sponsor advised of an actively monitored email address to be used at all times
for official communications.</li>
</ol>
<li id="section7">Rights of Lead Ambassadors.</li>
<ol>
<li>Legacy Lead Ambassador Token Grant. Lead Ambassadors that were promoted prior to Mainnet Beta earn a
pro-rata portion of the lead ambassador token pool for the Testnet network phase based on their active
months of participation. The token allocation for the Testnet network for legacy lead ambassadors
(“Testnet Lead Ambassador Pool”) is 0.10% of the token supply. The earning of tokens for each Lead
Ambassador from the phase token pool will be based on the i) number months the Lead Ambassador has
performed in the role, divided by ii) the total number of Lead Ambassador months performed by all Lead
Ambassadors, multiplied by iii) the Testnet Lead Ambassador Pool. This allocation vests over 4 years
with a 6 month cliff, which is counted from the Lead Ambassador promotion date, vesting 12.5% and the
remaining 87.5% vesting over the remaining 42 months. All tokens are subject to a six (6) month lock-up
and may not be transferred or withdrawn until 6 months after Mainnet Beta commences. </li>
<li>Lead Ambassador Token Grant. Lead Ambassadors promoted to lead on or after the commencement of Mainnet
Beta will be allocated an award that shall vest over 4 years with a 6 month cliff vesting 12.5% and the
remaining 87.5% vesting over the remaining 42 months. All tokens are subject to a six (6) month lock-up
and may not be transferred or withdrawn until 6 months after Mainnet Beta commences. All further vesting
will cease in the event of Termination of the Lead Ambassador. The size of the award shall be determined
based on when the Ambassador becomes a Lead Ambassador, according to the following table.

<li>Impact on Ambassador Token Grant. While serving in a Lead Ambassador role and earning the Lead Token
Grant, earning of tokens under the relevant Ambassador Token Grant or Legacy Ambassador Token Grant will
continue, with vesting running in parallel on both the relevant Ambassador Token Grant grant and the
relevant Lead Ambassador Token Grant.</li>
<li>Role Assignment. Lead Ambassadors will be assigned roles in relevant communications platforms to allow
them to speak as Lead Ambassadors in the community.</li>
</ol>
<li>Obligations of Lead Ambassadors.</li>
<ol>
<li>Ambassadors. Lead Ambassadors are Ambassadors and are subject to all of the Obligations of
Ambassadors, in addition to the incremental obligations here.</li>
<li>Working Hours. Lead Ambassadors will be responsible for an additional 24 hours of work within each 4
calendar weeks for a total, including their 16 hours of Ambassador obligation, of 40 hours per
4-week period, or 10 hours per week on average.</li>
<li>Coordinating Team. Lead Ambassadors are expected to coordinate and support the efforts of the Teams
they participate in. According to the values of Permissionless and Decentralized, Leads are to
operate with the consent of the Team and are not to manage, assign, or delegate, but are to create
supporting infrastructure, transparency, and clarity of team purpose that invite and enable the
contribution of Ambassadors within the team.</li>
<li>Coordinating Across Teams. Lead Ambassadors are expected to coordinate the activities and directions
the team is taking in areas that may impact or benefit from the support of other teams. As a group,
Lead Ambassadors are expected to create clarity among the various teams and take care of conflicts,
overlaps, and gaps across the various purposes, directions, and activities of the teams they lead.
</li>
<li>Ambassador Selection. Lead Ambassadors are expected to ensure that Ambassador Selection is occurring
for openings on their team, providing feedback and encouraging qualified Apprentices to apply, and
ensuring applications are being reviewed and quality feedback given to applicants.</li>
</ol>
<li>Contributions and Inventions. While an Ambassador is actively earning tokens as an Ambassador or Lead
Ambassador, any and all work produced under the Program, including any work submitted to Peer Review
Process, and including the underlying work products and associated intellectual property of the
Ambassador therein, is deemed a Contribution and will be licensed to Sponsor via the Apache License,
Version 2.0 (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">
<span style="color:rgb(17, 85, 204);">https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0</span>
</a>). </li>
<li>Peer Review Process. A Peer Review Process operated by the Governance team will validate the performance
of Applicant, Apprentice Ambassador, Ambassador and Lead Ambassador Obligations. </li>
<ol>
<li>Peer Groups. The Peer Review Process is conducted within peer groups, where there is a group for
Applicants, another group for Apprentices, and a group for Ambassadors which includes Lead
Ambassadors. If a Peer Group is not larger than 30 people for any review period, it may be combined
with another Peer Group at the discretion of the Governance Team.</li>
<li>Review Period. Each Peer Review Process will evaluate submissions within a calendar month.
</li>
<li>Submissions. Each Ambassador must create transparency by communicating their incremental
Contributions each month. The submission must provide sufficient detail to identify the
Contribution(s), validate that they were made during the relevant month, and enable other peers to
review and evaluate the Contributions. </li>
<li>Evaluations. Each Ambassador must review and score the Contributions of other randomly selected
peers each month according to this Process.</li>
<li>Failure to Participate. Failure to Participate in the Peer Review process means, during any single peer review
cycle, any one of the following violations: i) not providing a Submission on time, ii) not returning at least one
of the requested peer evaluations on time, or iii) receiving a score of zero on two or more evaluations. If any
Ambassador or Lead Ambassador incurs a Failure to Participate more than twice in any contiguous 6-month period,
such person will be automatically terminated from the Program. </li>
<li>Inadequate Contribution. Scoring 2 standard deviations below the average for 3 of any rolling
6-month period will require the Governance Team to register a Complaint with the Conflict Resolution
Team.</li>
<li>Scores, Allocation and Vesting Confirmation. After each Peer Review Process, the Sponsor shall
publish updated scores and an updated vesting schedule for each Ambassador noting their current
allocation and vesting. The score for any Ambassador that did not provide Submissions will be 0 for
that period.</li>
</ol>
<li>Removal of Ambassadors. Ambassadors may be removed from the program for failing to fulfill the
Obligations of Ambassadors or by resignation. Any failure to fulfill the Obligations will be determined
by the Conflict Resolution Team in accordance with the Conflict Resolution procedures. Any such
determination shall be forwarded to the Sponsor for Termination of the Ambassador, and removal will be
complete when the Ambassador Agreement has been confirmed to be terminated. The Onboarding and Growth
Team is responsible for revoking any necessary Ambassador Rights upon Termination.</li>
<li>Recall of Lead Ambassadors. A Lead Ambassador may be Recalled by the relevant Team based on a
Supermajority vote of no confidence in the Lead, combined with, when there is not at least one remaining
Lead Ambassador, the selection of a new Lead. The Team so voting shall notify the Governance Team and
the Sponsor as to the Demotion of the Lead Ambassador, and the Selection of the new Lead Ambassador.
</li>
<li>Good Standing. An Ambassador shall be considered to be in Good Standing so long as the Ambassador i) is
compliant with the Bylaws and their Ambassador Agreement, ii) has no unresolved Complaints before the
Conflict Resolution Team, except for complaints regarding Governance Participation, iii) is not
currently Failing to Participate or having Inadequate Contribution in the Peer Review Process.</li>
<li>Transferability. Membership in the Program and any associated benefits are not transferable. Ambassadors
must make their own provisions for inheritance, and the Program will be unable to assist an ambassador
whose tokens are lost, stolen, or otherwise improperly managed.</li>
