(USA)), Respondents. FINAL ORDER Case Number: 121851 The State of Florida, Office of Financial Regulation ("Office"), being authorized and directed to administer and enforce chapter 560, Florida Statutes, hereby enters this Final Order with Notice of Rights ("Final Order") as authorized by the provisions of chapters 120 and 560, Florida Statutes, against POMELO TWO US LLC D/B/A LEMFI (F/K/A_LEMONADE TWO LLC D/B/A LEMFI (F/D/B/A LEMONADE FINANCE)) and POMELO TECHNOLOGY US INC. (F/K/A LEMONADE TECHNOLOGY INC. (USA)) ("Respondents"). FINDINGS OF FACT J. On February 6, 2026, the Office issued an Administrative Complaint ("Complaint") against Respondents, alleging violations of chapter 560, Florida Statutes. (Exhibit A) 2. Within the Complaint was a Notice of Rights that afforded Respondents an opportunity to request a hearing in accordance with sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, including the following information: TO PRESERVE THE RIGHT TO A HEARING, A WRITTEN RESPONSE MUST BE FILED WITH THE OFFICE OF FINANCIAL REGULATION WITHIN TWENTY-ONE (21)

DAYS AFTER THE RECEIPT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT. SAID RESPONSE MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE OFFICE NO LATER THAN 5 :00 P .M. ON THE TWENTY￾FIRST DAY AFTER THE RECEIPT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT. A FAILURE TO TIMELY RESPOND IN WRITING WILL CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF RESPONDENTS' RIGHT TO REQUEST A HEARING AND A FINAL ORDER MAY BE ENTERED WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE. 3. The Office served Respondents with the Complaint via U.S. Certified Mail on February 17, 2026. (Exhibit B) 4. Respondents' written response to the Complaint was due on or before March 10, 2026. To date, the Office has neither received a written response to the Complaint nor have Respondents made a claim of equitable tolling. 5. The factual allegations as stated in the Complaint are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein, and being uncontested by Respondents, are accepted as true and correct and are adopted by the Office as Findings of Fact for purposes of this Final Order. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 6. The Office is responsible for the administration and enforcement of chapter 560, Florida Statutes, and has jurisdiction over the subject matter and of Respondents pursuant to chapter 560, Florida Statutes. 7. The Findings of Fact that have been adopted herein serve as the basis of the entry of this Final Order against Respondents. 8. Section 120.569(2)(a), Florida Statutes, and Rule 28-106.111(2), Florida Administrative Code, require, among other things, that a response or a petition to an action which affects the substantial interests of a party be filed with the agency within 21 days of receipt of written notice of the action. 2

9. Pursuant to Rule 28-106.111(4), Florida Administrative Code, the failure of Respondents to timely respond to the Complaint constitutes a waiver of Respondents' right to an administrative proceeding.
10. The doctrine of equitable tolling can be applied in administrative cases when a party has been misled or lulled into inaction, i.e., has in some extraordinary way, been prevented from asserting his rights, or has timely asserted his rights in the wrong forum. Machules v. Dept. of Admin., 523 So. 2d 1132 (Fla. 1988).
11. Without any evidence of equitable tolling, it is appropriate for the Office to conclude there was none. Patz v. Dept. of Health, 864 So.2d 79, 80 (Fla. 3d DCA 2003).
12. When Respondents failed to submit a response to the Office on or before March 10, 2026, Respondents did not timely file a petition or any other document in response to the Complaint. Respondents also failed to present a claim of equitable tolling. Therefore, it is appropriate for the Office to conclude there was no equitable tolling and Respondents waived their right to an administrative proceeding.
13. Based on the Findings of Fact adopted herein, the Office concludes that Respondents violated the specific statutes and rules charged in the Complaint and, as such, the specific charges in the Complaint are adopted in this Final Order as Conclusions of Law.
14. The waiver of a hearing by Respondents, taken together with the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law adopted herein, constitute sufficient grounds for the Office to take administrative action against Respondents, including the imposition of an administrative fine. Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is hereby ORDERED: A. Within thirty (30) days of this Final Order, Respondents shal1 pay an 3

ADMINISTRATIVE FINE of Forty-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy-Five Dollars ($48,875.00). B. Respondents shall submit the administrative fine in the form of a wire, money order or cashier's check made payable to the "Office of Financial Regulation." Such payment shall reference Case Number 121851 and shall be sent to the attention of Agency Clerk, c/o Margo A. Du Val, Post Office Box 8050, Tallahassee, Florida 32314-8050. DONE and ORDERED this 2.~ day of April, 2026, in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida. 4

COUNTI

18. The above general allegations are hereby re-alleged and incorporated by reference 3

as if fully stated herein. 19. Pursuant to section 560.125(1), Florida Statutes, a person may not engage in the business of a money services business in Florida unless the person is licensed under chapter 560, Florida Statutes, or is exempted from licensure. 20. Pursuant to section 560.204(1), Florida Statutes, a person may not engage in the activity of a money transmitter for compensation unless the person is licensed or exempted from licensure. 21. As used in section 560.204(1 ), Florida Statutes, the term "compensation" includes profit or loss on the exchange of currency. 22. As part of its examination, the Office reviewed Respondents' descriptions of its business, flow of funds, and transaction process, along with Respondents' submitted database of Florida transmissions and other information and documents. 23. For 391 days during the period of July 22, 2022, through August 31, 2023, Respondents conducted 13,915 transactions (totaling approximately $2,129,522.91) in which they received funds from customers in Florida and transmitted those funds to Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, and Ghana, and generated revenue on the profit and loss on the currency exchange rate. 24. Based on the foregoing, Respondents received currency or monetary value for the purpose of acting as an intermediary to transmit currency from one person to another location for compensation. As such, during the period of July 22, 2022, through August 31, 2023, Respondents engaged in the activity of a money transmitter, pursuant to section 560.103(24), Florida Statutes, and, thus, a money services business pursuant to section 560.103(23), Florida Statutes. 25. Respondents are not and have never been licensed to transact business as a money services business pursuant to chapter 560, Florida Statutes. 4

26. Therefore, during the period of July 22, 2022, through August 31, 2023, Respondents engaged in the business of a money services business without a license in violation of section 560.125( I), Florida Statutes.
27. Pursuant to the Disciplinary Guidelines for Money Services Businesses Form OFR￾560-09, incorporated by reference in Ru1e 69V-560.1000, Florida Administrative Code (2019) violation number 39, a person cited for violating section 560.125(1), Florida Statutes, is subject to a fine of $500.00 per day for each day that a person engages in the business of a money services business without being licensed.
28. Further, pursuant to section 560.125(4), Florida Statutes, the Office may issue and serve upon any person who violates any provision of section 560.125, Florida Statutes, a complaint seeking a cease and desist order.
29. The Office is, therefore, seeking the entry of an order requiring Respondents to immediately cease and desist from any and a11 money services business activities within the jurisdiction of chapter 560, Florida Statutes, and/or from acting as an affiliated party of any money services business licensed or required to be licensed by the Office pursuant to chapter 560, Florida Statutes. WHEREFORE, Respondents, POMELO TWO US LLC D/B/A LEMFI (F/K/A LEMONADE TWO LLC D/B/A LEMFI (F/D/B/A LEMONADE FINANCE)) and POMELO TECHNOLOGY US INC. (F/KJA LEMONADE TECHNOLOGY INC.
