4.2. The Client can lose all his initial funds and any additional funds deposited for the purpose of strengthening or controlling his position on the market.

The Client must realize that the Company is not responsible for losses resulting, directly or indirectly, from the restrictions imposed by the Government, regulations concerning operations with currency and market operations, interruptions in the bidding process, military actions or other circumstances known as "force majeure", which are not subject to control by the Company.
The Company has the right to reasonably determine the duration and sphere of influence of the force majeure events. The Company will take all the necessary measures to advise the Client about the beginning of force majeure events, including, but not limited to:
а) any action, event or phenomenon (including, but not limited to, strikes, riots, civil disorders, acts of terrorism, wars, acts of elements, accidents, fires, floods, storms, blackouts, lineout’s, equipment errors), which, according to the Company's well-grounded opinion, has led to destabilization of the market or markets for one or several instruments;

b) Close any or all the Client's open positions at the price considered by the Company to be reasonably fair;
