This End User License Agreement and Terms of Service (this “EULA”) is a binding contract between you, an individual user (“you”) and Curation Media, Inc. (“CMI,” “we,” “us” or “our”) governing your use of the CMI website, related mobile application (“App”) and any other online services or properties owned or controlled by CMI (collectively, the “Service”).

General Terms and Conditions

a. Consideration. CMI currently provides the Service for free to each User (defined in Section 2.a below), for each User’s personal enjoyment and self-expression. In return for this free access and use of the Service, you acknowledge and agree that CMI may generate revenues, increase goodwill or otherwise increase the value of CMI from your use of the Service, and you will have no right to share in any such revenue, goodwill or value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the future CMI in its sole discretion may charge you fees for your use of the Service and/or offer you opportunities to monetize your Crunches (defined in Section 2.a below) on the Service, including, by way of example only, through certain promotional programs. CMI will notify you of any such updates to the Service prior to those updates coming into effect

b. Changes to this EULA. You understand and agree that CMI may change this EULA at any time without prior notice; provided that CMI will endeavor to provide you with prior notice of any material changes. You may read a current, effective copy of this EULA at any time by selecting the appropriate link on the App or Site. The revised EULA will become effective at the time of posting. Any use of the Service after such date will constitute your acceptance of such revised EULA. If any change to this EULA is not acceptable to you, then your sole remedy is to stop accessing, browsing and otherwise using the Service. The terms of this EULA will govern any updates CMI provides to you that replace and/or supplement any portion of the Service, unless the upgrade is accompanied by a separate license or revised EULA, in which case the terms of that license or revised EULA will govern. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences of this Section 1.b, no revisions to this EULA will apply to any dispute between you and CMI that arose prior to the effective date of such revision.

c. Privacy Policy. Your access to and use of the Service is also subject to CMI’s Privacy Policy, the terms and conditions of which are incorporated herein by reference.

d. Jurisdictional Issues. The Service is controlled and operated by CMI from its offices in the State of California. CMI makes no representation that materials on the Service are appropriate, lawful or available for use in any locations other than the United States of America. Those who choose to access or use the Service from locations outside the United States of America, do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. Access to the Service from jurisdictions where the contents or practices of the Service are illegal, unauthorized or penalized is strictly prohibited.

e. Eligibility. THE SERVICE IS NOT FOR PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 13 OR FOR ANY USERS PREVIOUSLY SUSPENDED OR REMOVED FROM THE SERVICE BY CMI. IF YOU ARE UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE, THEN YOU MUST NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICE AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY MANNER. Furthermore, by using the Service, you affirm that you are at least 18 years of age or you have the consent of your parent or guardian to access and use the Service.

The Service

a. Description. The Service will allow you to (i) side-load to the Service the User Content (defined in Section 5.a below) that you have posted or uploaded to certain third party social media platforms that CMI in its sole discretion selects and may change at any time with or without notice (collectively, “Third Party Platforms”); and (ii) upload to the Service User Content directly from your computer or any device running the App (each of (i) and (ii) individually, a “Post,” and collectively, “Posts”).

Once you Post your User Content to the Service as described above, your User Content will be held in your personal “cooler.” The Service allows you to share some or all of your User Content with other users on the Service, across the Third Party Platforms and/or with non-Users through a short message service (each, a “Crunch”). Any person who creates a Crunch will be referred to herein as a “Cruncher.” Crunchers, registered users of the Service and non-registered users of the Service will be referred to herein collectively as “Users.”

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Service relies, at least in part, on our ability to obtain your User Content from Third Party Platforms through their application programming interfaces (“APIs”). We have no control over these Third Party Platforms or the availability of their APIs. As a result, and as further described in Section 11 below (and without limiting the terms in Section 11), (i) we provide the Service to you “as is” without warranties of any kind, including, without limitation, any warranties that the Service is and will remain available, accessible and/or uninterrupted; and (ii) you are solely responsible for compliance with any terms and conditions imposed by any Third Party Platform.

b. Private Accounts. CMI may provide you with functionality to make Crunches publicly available on the Service or only available to people you approve. To the extent CMI provides this functionality within the App, you should select the preferred privacy setting available within the App.

c. Mobile Services. The Service will be accessible via a mobile phone, tablet or other wireless device (collectively, “Mobile Services”). Your Carrier’s normal messaging, data, and other rates and fees will apply to your use of the Mobile Services. In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain Mobile Services may be prohibited or restricted by your Carrier, and not all Mobile Services may work with all Carriers or devices. Therefore, you are solely responsible for checking with your Carrier to determine if the Mobile Services are available for your mobile device(s), what restrictions, if any, may be applicable to your use of the Mobile Services, and how much they will cost you. Nevertheless, all use of the Service and the related Mobile Services must be in accordance with this EULA.

Registration

a. Log-In Credentials. While you may always browse the public-facing portions of the Service without registering with us, in order to enjoy the full benefits of the Service, including to use the Service as a Cruncher, you must download the App and register an account with us (an “Account”).

b. Account Security. You are responsible for the security of your Account, and are fully responsible for all activities that occur through the use of your credentials. You will notify CMI immediately at security@crunchet.com if you suspect or know of any unauthorized use of your log-in credentials or any other breach of security with respect to your Account. CMI will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorized use of your credentials prior to you notifying CMI of such unauthorized use or loss of your credentials. Separate log-in credentials may be required to access External Sites (defined in Section 7 below).

c. Accuracy of Information. When creating an Account, you will provide true, accurate, current, and complete information as CMI requests. You will update the information about yourself promptly, and as necessary, to keep it current and accurate. We reserve the right to disallow, cancel, remove, or reassign certain usernames and permalinks in appropriate circumstances, as determined by us in our sole discretion, and may, with or without prior notice, suspend or terminate your Account if activities occur on your Account which, in our sole discretion, would or might constitute a violation of this EULA, cause damage to or impair the Service, infringe or violate any third party rights, or violate any applicable laws or regulations. If messages sent to the e-mail address you provide are returned as undeliverable, then CMI may terminate your Account immediately without notice to you and without any liability to you or any third party.

d. Messages. You may send messages to other Users and non-Users of the Service through the App. You represent and warrant that (i) you will only send messages through the App to others who have given you their prior express consent to receive such messages; (ii) you, and only you, take all actions necessary to initiate and send all messages that you transmit to others through the App, and CMI is merely a technology provider that plays no active role whatsoever in initiating and/or sending such messages; and (iii) you will indemnify and hold CMI harmless from any and all claims and losses arising out of your sending messages to others through the App. Without limiting the foregoing, you are solely responsible for all fees and charges associated with your sending any messages through the App, including, without limitation, any fees or charges imposed by your Carrier.

Intellectual Property Rights

a. License. Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with this EULA, CMI hereby grants you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, royalty-free and worldwide right and license to access and use the Service solely for your personal, non-commercial use and solely in strict compliance with the provisions of this EULA.

b. Content. Except for User Content, the content that CMI provides to Users on or through the Service, including without limitation, any text, graphics, photos, software, and interactive features, is protected by copyright or other intellectual property rights and owned by CMI or its third party licensors (collectively, the “CMI Content”). Moreover, as between CMI and you, CMI solely owns all design rights, databases and compilation and other intellectual property rights in and to the Service, in each case whether registered or unregistered, and any related goodwill.

c. Marks. The CMI trademarks, service marks, and logos (the “CMI Trademarks”) used and displayed on the Service are CMI’s registered and unregistered trademarks or service marks. Other product and service names located on the Service may be trademarks or service marks owned by third parties (the “Third Party Trademarks,” and, collectively with the CMI Trademarks, the “Trademarks”). Except as otherwise permitted by law, you may not use the Trademarks to disparage CMI or the applicable third party, CMI’s or a third party’s products or services, or in any manner (using commercially reasonable judgment) that may damage any goodwill in the Trademarks. You may not use any Trademarks as part of a link to or from any Service without CMI’s prior express written consent. All goodwill generated from the use of any CMI Trademark will inure solely to CMI’s benefit.

d. Restrictions. CMI hereby reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this Section 4. Accordingly, nothing this EULA or on the Service will be construed as granting to you, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any additional license rights in and to the Service or any CMI Content or Trademarks located or displayed therein.

User Content

a. Definition. “User Content” means any content that Users Post to or through the Service including, without limitation, any text (including, without limitation, tweets and/or links), photographs, audiovisual works, sound recordings (including the musical works embodied therein), Crunches and any other works subject to protection under the laws of the United States or any other jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright laws. For the avoidance of doubt, User Content excludes any and all CMI Content.

b. Screening User Content. CMI offers Users the ability to submit User Content to the Service. CMI does not pre-screen any User Content, but reserves the right to block access to or delete any User Content in its sole discretion. In addition, we have the right – but not the obligation – in our sole discretion to block access to or delete any User Content (i) that we consider to violate this EULA, applicable law or otherwise constitute Objectionable Content (defined in Section 5.i below);or (ii) in response to complaints from other Users. As a result, you are solely responsible for saving copies of any User Content that you Post to the Service on your personal device(s) in the event that you want to ensure that you have access to copies such User Content. CMI does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity, appropriateness or quality of any User Content, and under no circumstances will CMI be liable in any way for any User Content.

c. Intellectual Property Rights. SUBJECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY RIGHTS IN ANY PRE EXISTING CONTENT INCLUDED WITHIN YOUR USER CONTENT, INCLUDING CMI CONTENT, YOU RETAIN OWNERSHIP OF ANY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE IN YOUR USER CONTENT AND SUBMITTING YOUR USER CONTENT TO THE SERVICE DOES NOT TRANSFER OWNERSHIP OF YOUR RIGHTS.

d. Licenses to User Content. You hereby grant CMI an unrestricted, assignable, sublicensable, revocable, royalty-free license throughout the universe to reproduce, distribute, publicly display, communicate to the public, publicly perform (including by means of digital audio transmissions and on a through-to-the-audience basis), make available, create derivative works from, retransmit from External Sites, and otherwise exploit and use (collectively, “Use”) all User Content you Post to or through the Service by any means and through any media and formats now known or hereafter developed, for the purposes of (i) advertising, marketing, and promoting CMI and the Service; (ii) displaying and sharing your User Content to other Users of the Service; and (iii) providing the Service as authorized by this EULA. You further grant CMI a royalty-free license to use your user name, image, and likeness to identify you as the source of any of your User Content. You must not post any User Content on or through the Service or transmit to CMI any User Content that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. Any User Content posted by you to or through the Service or transmitted to CMI will be considered non-confidential and non proprietary, and treated as such by CMI, and may be used by CMI in accordance with this EULA without notice to you and without any liability to CMI. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights granted in the preceding sentences of this Section include, but are not limited to, the right to reproduce sound recordings (and make mechanical reproductions of the musical works embodied in such sound recordings), and publicly perform and communicate to the public sound recordings (and the musical works embodied therein), all on a royalty-free basis. This means that you are granting Company the right to Use your User Content without the obligation to pay royalties to any third party, including, but not limited to, a sound recording copyright owner (e.g., a record label), a musical work copyright owner (e.g., a music publisher), a performing rights organization (e.g., ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, etc.) (a “PRO”), a sound recording PRO (e.g., Sound Exchange), any unions or guilds, and engineers, producers or other royalty participants involved in the creation of User Content.

e. You Must Have Rights to the Content You Post. You must not Post any User Content to the Service if you are not the copyright owner of or are not fully authorized to grant rights in all of the elements of the User Content you intend to Post to the Service. In addition, if you only own the rights in and to a sound recording, but not to the underlying musical works embodied in such sound recordings, then you must not Post such sound recordings to the Service unless you have all necessary rights, authorizations, and permissions with respect to such embedded musical works that grant you sufficient rights to grant the licenses to Company under this EULA. You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the User Content Posted by you on or through the Service or otherwise have the right to grant the license set forth in this EULA; (ii) the Posting and Use of your User Content on or through the Service does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights, intellectual property rights, or any other rights of any person, including, but not limited to, the rights of any person visible in any of your User Content; (iii) the Posting of your User Content on the Service will not require us to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties; and (iv) the Posting of your User Content on the Service does not result in a breach of contract between you and a third party. You agree to pay all monies owing to any person as a result of Posting your User Content on the Service.

f. Specific Rules for Musical Works. If you are a composer or author of a musical work and are affiliated with a PRO, then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through this EULA to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO’s reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher, then you must obtain the consent of such music publisher to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in this EULA or have such music publisher enter into this Agreement with us. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant us the licenses in this EULA.

g. Through-To-The-Audience Rights. All of the rights you grant in this EULA are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning the owners or operators of External Sites will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content Posted or Used on such External Sites via the Service.

h. Waiver of Rights to User Content. By Posting User Content to or through the Service, you waive any rights to prior inspection or approval of any marketing or promotional materials related to such User Content. You also waive any and all rights of privacy, publicity, or any other rights of a similar nature in connection with your User Content, or any portion thereof. To the extent any moral rights are not transferable or assignable, you hereby waive and agree never to assert any and all moral rights, or to support, maintain or permit any action based on any moral rights that you may have in or with respect to any User Content you Post to or through the Service.

i. Objectionable Content. You are not permitted to and agree not to Post any User Content to the Service that is or could be interpreted to be (i) abusive, bullying, defamatory, harassing, harmful, hateful, inaccurate, infringing, libelous, objectionable, obscene, offensive, pornographic, shocking, threatening, unlawful, violent, or vulgar; or (ii) promoting bigotry, discrimination, hatred, racism, or inciting violence, in each of clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section, as CMI may determine in its sole discretion (collectively, “Objectionable Content”). The Posting of any Objectionable Content may subject you to third party claims and none of the rights granted to you in this EULA may be raised as a defense against any third party claims arising from your Posting of Objectionable Content. If you encounter any Objectionable Content on the Service, then please email CMI at content@crunchet.com inform us through the functionality offered on the Service. You acknowledge and agree that CMI provides you the right to report Objectionable Content as a courtesy, and CMI has no obligation to remove or take any other action with respect to any Objectionable Content on the Service that you report to us. CMI may terminate, suspend, warn or take other appropriate actions against Users for Posting Objectionable Content to the Service.

j. No Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, CMI will not be liable for any unauthorized use of User Content by any User.

CMI is not responsible for the content of any External Sites and does not make any representations regarding the content or accuracy of any materials on such External Sites. You should take precautions when downloading files from all websites to protect your computer and mobile devices from viruses and other destructive programs. If you decide to access any External Sites, then you do so at your own risk.

Feedback

While our own staff is continually working to develop and evaluate our own product ideas and features, we pride ourselves on paying close attention to the interests, feedback, comments, and suggestions we receive from the User community. If you choose to contribute by sending CMI or our employees any ideas for products, services, features, modifications, enhancements, content, refinements, technologies, content offerings (such as audio, visual, games, or other types of content), promotions, strategies, or product/feature names, or any related documentation, artwork, computer code, diagrams, or other materials (collectively “Feedback”), then regardless of what your accompanying communication may say, the following terms will apply, so that future misunderstandings can be avoided. Accordingly, by sending Feedback to CMI, you agree that:

a. CMI has no obligation to review, consider, or implement your Feedback, or to return to you all or part of any Feedback for any reason;

Notice and Procedure for Making Claims of Copyright or Other Intellectual Property Infringements

a. Respect of Third Party Rights. CMI respects the intellectual property of others and takes the protection of intellectual property very seriously, and we ask our Users to do the same. Infringing activity will not be tolerated on or through the Service.

b. Repeat Infringer Policy. CMI’s intellectual property policy is to (i) remove or disable access to material that CMI believes in good faith, upon notice from an intellectual property owner or his or her agent, is infringing the intellectual property of a third party by being made available through the Service; and (ii) remove any User Content uploaded to the Service by “repeat infringers.” CMI considers a “repeat infringer” to be any User that has uploaded User Content or Feedback to or through the Service and for whom CMI has received more than two takedown notices compliant with the provisions of 17 U.S.C. § 512 with respect to such User Content or Feedback. CMI has discretion, however, to terminate the Account of any User after receipt of a single notification of claimed infringement or upon CMI’s own determination.

c. Procedure for Reporting Claimed Infringement. If you believe that any content made available on or through the Service has been used or exploited in a manner that infringes an intellectual property right you own or control, then please promptly send a “Notification of Claimed Infringement” containing the following information to the Designated Agent identified below. Your Notification of Claimed Infringement may be shared by CMI with the User alleged to have infringed a right you own or control, and you hereby consent to CMI making such disclosure. Your communication must include substantially the following:

i. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the work(s) that has/have been allegedly infringed;

ii. Identification of works or materials being infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notification, then a representative list of such works;

iii. Identification of the specific material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit CMI to locate the material;

iv. Information reasonably sufficient to permit CMI to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which you may be contacted;

v. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

vi. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

You should consult with your own lawyer and/or see 17U.S.C. § 512 to confirm your obligations to provide a valid notice of claimed infringement.

d. Designated Agent Contact Information. CMI’s designated agent for receipt of Notifications of Claimed Infringement (the “Designated Agent”) can be contacted at:

Via E-mail: copyright@crunchet.com

Via U.S. Mail: Copyright Manager, Curation Media, Inc., 520 Broadway, 2nd floor, Santa Monica, CA 90401

e. Counter Notification. If you receive a notification from CMI that material made available by you on or through the Service has been the subject of a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then you will have the right to provide CMI with what is called a “Counter Notification.” To be effective, a Counter Notification must be in writing, provided to CMI’s Designated Agent through one of the methods identified in Section 9.d and include substantially the following information:

i. A physical or electronic signature of the subscriber;

ii. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

iii. A statement under penalty of perjury that the subscriber has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and

iv. The subscriber’s name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that the subscriber consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the subscriber’s address is outside of the United States, then for any judicial district in which CMI may be found, and that the subscriber will accept service of process from the person who provided notification under Section 9.d above or an agent of such person.

A party submitting a Counter Notification should consult a lawyer or see 17 U.S.C. §512 to confirm the party’s obligations to provide a valid counter notification under the Copyright Act.

f. Reposting of Content Subject to a Counter Notification. If you submit a Counter Notification to CMI in response to a Notification of Claimed Infringement, CMI will promptly provide the person who provided the Notification of Claimed Infringement with a copy of your Counter Notification and inform that person that CMI will replace the removed User Content or Feedback or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days, and CMI will replace the removed User Content or Feedback and cease disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the Counter Notification, unless CMI’s Designated Agent receives notice from the party that submitted the Notification of Claimed Infringement that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the User from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on CMI’s system or network.

g. False Notifications of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notifications. The Copyright Act provides that:

[a]ny person who knowingly materially misrepresents under [Section 512 of the Copyright Act(17 U.S.C. § 512)] (1) that material or activity is infringing, or (2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, will be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or copyright owner’s authorized licensee, or by a service provider, who is injured by such misrepresentation, as the result of [CMI] relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to disable access to it.

17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

CMI reserves the right to seek damages from any party that submits a Notification of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notification in violation of the law.

As stated above, certain User Content Posted on the Service is made available through APIs from Third Party Platforms. If you submit a Notification of Claimed Infringement to CMI for User Content that we have obtained through such an API, then we will respond to your Notification of Claimed Infringement in accordance with this Section, but we also suggest that you contact the Third Party Platform from which we received the User Content directly.

Dispute Resolution

a. Mandatory Arbitration. Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. CMI (AND ITS RESPECTIVE CORPORATE PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, SUCCESSORS AND PERMITTED ASSIGNS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS (collectively, the “CMI Parties”)) AND YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT), AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORM OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW, FOR ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS EULA OR THE SERVICE. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Please visit www.adr.org for more information.

i. Commencing Arbitration. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by a reputable courier with a tracking mechanism, a written notice of intent to arbitrate (a “Notice”), or, in the absence of a mailing address provided by you to CMI, to you via any other method available to CMI, including via e-mail. The Notice to CMI should be addressed to 520 Broadway, 2nd floor, Santa Monica, CA 90401, Attn: Chief Executive Officer (the “Arbitration Notice Address”). The Notice must (A) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (B) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If you and CMI do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, then you or CMI may commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file a claim in small claims court. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (“Rules”), AS MODIFIED BY THIS EULA. The Rules and AAA forms are available at http://www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee to commence arbitration against CMI, then CMI will promptly reimburse you for your confirmed payment of the filing fee upon CMI’s receipt of Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing fee, unless your Demand is equal to or greater than U.S.$1,000 or was filed in bad faith, in which case you are solely responsible for the payment of the filing fee.
