2. CONTENT; RIGHTS.

(a). Titles; Your Content; Metadata. You may submit, upload, post, display, provide, or otherwise make available via certain of the Services discrete audio-visual programs (“Titles”), images, music, Metadata, marketing materials, supplemental audio-visual content, artwork, and other content, materials, or information (collectively, “Your Content”). “Metadata” means any and all information that supplements the Titles or other items of Your Content, including information relating to title, creators, publishers, authors, illustrators, narrators, actors, directors, producers, studios, digital object identifiers, geographical rights restrictions, descriptions, graphics, artwork, content ratings, classifications, MPAA ratings, or other similar notices and advisories, and all other information reasonably usable to identify Titles and Your Content. We treat certain types of submissions, such as large catalog imports for 100 or more Titles and scheduling release dates, as Professional Services. Our Professional Services are further described in Section 3 (Subscriptions and Professional Services) of this Agreement and our Help Center contains a listing of some of our Professional Services and the fees for those services. Filmhub, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to reject any submissions of Your Content.

(b). Submission and Withdrawal of Your Content. The Sites allow you, as part of the submission process or at any other time, to limit the Territory, license period, and license type, on a Title by Title basis. If you are a subscriber to certain Services, you are also afforded access to other features of the Services, including the ability to limit the specific Channels (as defined below) for which your Title(s) are licensed through the Services, on a Title-by-Title basis. If you submit any Title(s) to the Sites that are already distributed by any of Filmhub’s Channels , you must subscribe for the Distribution Plus/Pro Service in order to enable Channel blocking for those Title(s) and Channel(s) (and if you fail to so subscribe, you hereby authorize us to subscribe you to such Service and to deduct the subscription fee from your Net Earnings so that we can implement the required Channel blocking for the applicable Title(s)). You agree to submit Titles and other items of Your Content that you wish to upload to the Services in the formats required by Filmhub. You are responsible for any costs you incur in connection with formatting, submitting, and uploading Your Content. You may withdraw any of Your Content from the Services at any time upon thirty (30) days’ notice via messaging through our Help Center. However, any of Your Content that you withdraw (or limit the license terms for at any time after submission) will, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, remain available for exploitation via any Channel(s) that may have already selected Your Content for exhibition in accordance with the terms of the applicable Channel Agreements (as defined below), which may contain minimum notice and/or minimum performance requirements or otherwise restrict your right to withdraw Your Content from exhibition. In addition, if you withdraw a Title from the Services prior to the third anniversary (or fifth anniversary, if you are a catalog importer) of the date that Title first became available on the Services, you may be charged a takedown fee as described in our Help Center.

(c). Channels and Channel Agreements. “Channels” are services that allow for the viewing of Titles by end users. Channels may be owned and operated by Filmhub or by third parties with which Filmhub has entered into agreements for the exhibition of Titles and other content (“Channel Agreements”). For any User of the Sites and Services that is a Channel, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Channel Agreement, the terms of this Agreement that are applicable to Users that are Channels will be deemed to supplement the Channel Agreement and, to the extent that the terms of the Channel Agreement directly and irreconcilably conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Channel Agreement will govern. The following provisions of this Agreement do not apply to Users that are Channels: paragraphs (a), (b), (d), (f), (g), and (h) of this Section 2 (Content; Rights), Section 4 (Revenue Sharing and Accounting), and any other provisions to the extent that they specifically relate to Your Content.

(d). Preexisting and Supplemental Agreements. In certain cases, Filmhub may be the assignee of an agreement between you and a third party, pursuant to which you have granted rights to distribute Your Content (a “Preexisting Agreement”) or you and Filmhub may enter into a supplemental agreement, providing for additional terms with respect to the distribution of Your Content (“Supplemental Agreement”). If you are a party to a Preexisting Agreement, you hereby consent to its assignment to Filmhub. If you are a party to a Preexisting Agreement or a Supplemental Agreement, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the term of and for the Titles covered by that Preexisting Agreement and/or Supplemental Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will be deemed to supplement the Preexisting Agreement and/or Supplemental Agreement, and to the extent that the terms of the Preexisting Agreement and/or Supplemental Agreement directly and irreconcilably conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Preexisting Agreement and/or Supplemental Agreement will govern (including with respect to the submission and withdrawal of Your Content, exclusivity, scope of distribution rights, Territory, and revenue sharing and payment provisions). However, upon expiration, termination or non-renewal of any Preexisting Agreement or Supplemental Agreement, all of the terms of this Agreement (including with respect to the submission and withdrawal of Your Content, exclusivity, scope of distribution rights, Territory, and revenue sharing and payment provisions) will govern with respect to all items of Your Content.

(e). Certain Definitions.

  1. “Ad Supported” means access to Titles on an exclusively advertisement supported basis, including AVOD, digital linear television, and free ad-supported television (FAST).
  2. “Subscription” means access to Titles on a subscription basis for viewing over a finite period of time, including subscription video on demand and in-flight and other transportation access. For clarity, the subscriber may be the Channel and/or the end user.
  3. “Transactional” means access to Titles for viewing pursuant to payment of an a la carte fee, where the access duration may be over a finite or indefinite period of time, including theatrical, pay per view, electronic sell through (EST), and download to own (DTO). For clarity, the a la carte fee may be paid by the Channel and/or the end user.

Filmhub reserves the right in its sole discretion to include or decline to include any given Channel in its Channel roster.

(g). Channel Requirements. Owners and operators of Channels (including Filmhub for its own Channels) may require that Your Content comply with that Channel’s specifications in order to be distributed on such Channel(s). In the event that Your Content does not meet the applicable Channel’s specifications (including with respect to dubbing, subtitles, formats, ratings, Metadata, and required promotional materials and artwork), Filmhub will provide you with notice of such deficiency. In the event that you do not respond indicating that you no longer wish to have Your Content provided to the relevant Channel(s) that require modifications to Your Content within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice from Filmhub, Filmhub reserves the right to correct such deficiencies, and to set off or recoup all amounts expended by Filmhub to correct such deficiencies against your Net Earnings.

  9. To use and include Filmhub’s and any of its designees’ names, logos, and video bumpers on or in connection with Your Content; and

You are solely responsible for ensuring that you control all rights in and to Your Content necessary for Filmhub and the Channels to exploit Your Content throughout the Territory on an Ad-Supported, Subscription, and Transactional Basis and as otherwise provided in this Agreement, subject only to any specific opt-out elections that you make on the Sites. Filmhub is not responsible for interpreting (or any errors in interpreting) the scope of your rights in any of Your Content even if you provide Filmhub with copies of agreements, spreadsheets, or other materials that purport to delineate or summarize the scope of such rights.

(i). Filmhub’s Rights. Except for Your Content, the Sites, the Services and all materials and content included in the Services (“Filmhub Content”), and all intellectual property rights in or to the Sites, the Services, and the Filmhub Content, are the exclusive property of Filmhub and its licensors (including other Users who submit content in connection with the Services). Filmhub Content may include, among other things, software, images, text, graphics, illustrations, logos, patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, photographs, audio, videos, and music. Except as explicitly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement grants you any rights in or to any of the Filmhub Content. You agree not to sell, license, rent, modify, distribute, copy, reproduce, transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, publish, adapt, edit, or create derivative works from any Filmhub Content. Use of Filmhub Content for any purpose not expressly permitted by this Agreement is strictly prohibited.

(j). Channel Agreements and Requirements of Channels. You acknowledge that, in providing certain of the Services, Filmhub will be required to enter into Channel Agreements with various Channels. The selection of these Channels and the terms of these Channel Agreements is within the sole discretion of Filmhub. You agree that this Agreement is subject to any applicable terms of the Channel Agreements. You expressly acknowledge that even though this Agreement is non-exclusive, certain Channels may require that Your Content be made available to them at the same times and in the same formats as those Titles are made available to any other distribution channels. To the extent that a Channel’s requirements are not met, such Channel may have the right to discontinue the availability of Your Content on such Channel. Filmhub will, upon your written request by messaging to our Help Center, provide you with additional details regarding such requirements.

3. Subscriptions and Professional Services.

(a). Fees. Certain aspects of the Services (including any Channels owned by Filmhub) may be provided for fees and other charges, which may be on an a la carte, subscription, or other basis. Filmhub may add new Services or features of the Services for additional fees and charges or add or change fees and charges for existing Services, at any time in its sole discretion. Please refer to our Help Center for a listing of some of our Professional Services and the fees for those services.

(b). Subscriptions. Certain features of the Services are available to you on a subscription basis. Fees to subscribe to those Services for specified periods of time (each, a “Subscription Period”) are set forth on the Sites. All subscription fees stated on the Sites are exclusive of sales and other applicable taxes. Filmhub may change the subscription fees for the Services from time-to-time by posting a notice of such change on the Sites or providing notice to you by email or through your User Account. You may become a subscriber to a specific Service for the relevant Subscription Period by registering through your User Account and paying the subscription fee for the Subscription Period that you select. Use of the Services for which you subscribe is limited to you and access to any subscription Services may not be shared by you with any other User.

(c). Subscription Renewals and Cancellations; No Refunds. Your subscriptions will automatically renew at the end of each applicable Subscription Period, unless you terminate your subscription at least thirty (30) days before the end of the Subscription Period. You may terminate your subscription by filling out our Cancellation Request form, with such termination being effective at the end of the then-current Subscription Period.  Filmhub will not pro rate subscription fees for partial Subscription Periods or refund any previously paid subscription fees if you cancel your subscription to any of the Services.

(d). Distribution Plus/Pro Cancellations. One of our Services available to you on a subscription basis is our Distribution Plus/Pro Service, which provides you with access to additional Site features, including Channel blocking, and the ability to use certain Professional Services at no additional cost to you. If you cancel your Distribution Plus/Pro subscription:

  • Any previously blocked Channels will be unblocked and made available for licensing.
  • Your User Account will no longer have access to Distribution Plus/Pro benefits (e.g., prioritized support, dedicated Acquisitions Manager, Blocked Channels, etc.).
  • If your Subscription Period was less than annual and you cancel your subscription within the first year that you are a subscriber, any Professional Services that you used that were included with your subscription (such as Title updates, Title re-deliveries, scheduled release dates, etc.) will be subject to charge against your Net Earnings (based on our then-current Professional Services pricing).

(e). Payment Processing.

(i) When you subscribe for Services on the Sites, you will be required to provide us or our third party payment processor with valid, up-to-date credit card or other payment information and to maintain that payment information (or an acceptable alternative payment method) on file with us or our payment processor so long as you are a subscriber to a Service. You authorize us or our payment processor to charge your credit card or other payment method for subscription fees and any other fees you incur on the Sites as they become due and payable, and to charge any alternative payment method that we or the payment processor has on record for you in the event your primary payment method is expired, invalid, or otherwise not able to be charged. You are responsible for maintaining up-to-date payment information. Filmhub reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to establish other acceptable alternative payment methods for specific Services, which may include offset against your Net Earnings.

(ii) Payment processing services may be provided by one or more third-party payment processors. We reserve the right to switch payment processing vendors or use alternate or backup vendors in our discretion. Payment processing provided by Stripe is subject to the Stripe Services Agreement (available at https://stripe.com/legal). Payment processing provided by PayPal is subject to PayPal’s User Agreement (available at https://www.paypal.com/us/legalhub/paypal/useragreement-full). You are solely responsible for charges owed for all subscriptions and other Services purchased through the Sites, including, but not limited to, applicable taxes.

(iii) You represent and warrant that all information provided by you, including your name, billing address, e-mail address and credit card, debit card, or other account charge authorization information, for your payment method are correct. If you pay by credit or debit card, by designating a card to be billed, you represent and warrant that you are the holder or an authorized user of such card.

(iv) Your card issuer agreement governs your use of any designated credit cards, and you must refer to those agreements and not this Agreement to determine your rights and liabilities as a cardholder. You, and not Filmhub, are responsible for paying any unauthorized amounts billed to your credit card by a third party.

4. Revenue Sharing and Accounting.

(a). Earnings. If Your Content is exploited by one or more Channels, Filmhub will credit your account a sum equal to the amount of Net Earnings received by Filmhub from the exploitation of Your Content. “Net Earnings” are your Gross Earnings less (1) any and all processing and other Channel-related fees, and (2) our revenue share. Our revenue share is Twenty Percent (20%) of Gross Earnings. “Gross Earnings” means all non-refundable gross monies actually received by Filmhub from a Channel with respect to Your Content, less any and all sales, use, value added, remittance, and other applicable taxes. If a Channel is owned by Filmhub, that Channel will pay Filmhub for access to Your Content at industry standard rates, and Gross Earnings, Net Earnings, and our revenue share will be calculated based on that payment. To ensure proper transfer of amounts due, you are solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact information associated with your User Account. Filmhub may withhold amounts due to you unless and until you provide such information. Filmhub reserves the right to set off or recoup amounts of third-party fees, expenses, unpaid subscription fees for Services you are subscribed to, unpaid Professional Services fees, and other charges related to returned or cancelled transfers of amounts due to your account (due to an information error or omission) against your Net Earnings. Net Earnings will be calculated solely based on records maintained by Filmhub, and no other measurements or statistics of any kind will have any effect under this Agreement. You acknowledge that unless otherwise provided in a Preexisting Agreement or Supplemental Agreement, you will have no audit rights with respect to Gross Earnings or Net Earnings. As required by applicable law, Filmhub may withhold any taxes or other amounts from your Net Earnings.

(b). Disputes. Any objection relating to any accounting statement (and any proceeding relating to an accounting statement) must be made (and any proceeding commenced) no later than one (1) year after the date the applicable statement is rendered, and you hereby waive any longer statute of limitations to the extent permitted by law.

(c). Timing. Filmhub will transfer amounts due to you as soon Filmhub receives, processes, and posts your Net Earnings to your account and you request a transfer via the functionality provided in your User Account. You are responsible for any bank fees, PayPal fees, or other charges related to such transfer.

(d). Withholding; Set-off. To the extent that you owe any amounts to Filmhub in connection with this Agreement, any Preexisting Agreement, Supplemental Agreement, or otherwise, Filmhub reserves the right to withhold or set off any such amount (whether subject to dispute or otherwise) against your Net Earnings.

(e). Pooling of Net Earnings. Your Net Earnings will be pooled in an account with the Net Earnings of other Filmhub customers until you transfer such funds. You agree that you will not receive interest or other earnings on the Net Earnings that Filmhub places in such pooled account. In consideration for your use of the Services, you irrevocably transfer and assign to Filmhub any and all ownership rights that you may have in any interest that may accrue on Net Earnings held in such pooled account.

(f). Suspension and Forfeiture of Revenue. In the event that Filmhub becomes aware of a claim of infringement of copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property right, or right of publicity or privacy, or failure to comply with any third-party license requirement or any other claim which, if true, would constitute fraud or a breach of any of your representations, warranties or obligations hereunder, you agree that without limiting its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, Filmhub may freeze any and all Net Earnings in your account. Without limiting Filmhub’s other rights and remedies under this Agreement, such Net Earnings will be forfeited by you if Filmhub determines, in its good faith discretion, that they are the result of fraud or infringement (and will be subject to offset in connection with third party claims as provided elsewhere in this Agreement). You acknowledge that Channels may also have policies related to fraud and suspected fraudulent activities, that any such policies will be binding on you as applicable. You agree that it is your sole responsibility to investigate and comply with all applicable Channel policies for Your Content.

5. Referral Program.

If you elect (via the functionality provided on the Sites) to participate in Filmhub’s referral program (a “Referral Participant”), in addition to the other provisions of the Agreement,** the following **terms and conditions apply to you:

(a). Filmhub will provide each Referral Participant with a unique link or sign-up code that you may provide to content owners seeking to sign up for the Services.  In order to be an “Eligible Referred Content Owner,” (i) a content owner must create a User Account on the Services using Referral Participant’s unique sign-up code or link at the time of sign up, and must create their User Account within ninety (90) days after receiving such unique sign-up code or link, (ii) neither the content owner nor any of its affiliates may have previously created a User Account on any of the Services, and (iii) neither the content owner nor any of its affiliates may have previously uploaded a Title to the Services. Filmhub will determine in its sole discretion who is an Eligible Referred Content Owner.

(b). For a period of five (5) years from the date that the Eligible Referred Content Owner creates their User Account, Filmhub will credit the Referral Participant’s account a sum equal to ten percent (10%) (or such other percentage as has been agreed in a Supplemental Agreement) of Filmhub’s revenue share derived from the Gross Earnings of each of the Referral Participant’s Eligible Referred Content Owners (the “Referral Fee”) at the same time that Filmhub credits the Eligible Referred Content Owner’s account with their Net Earnings. For purposes of this Agreement, the Referral Fee will be treated as part of the Referral Participant’s Net Earnings. A Referral Participant must create and maintain an active User Account in order to receive Referral Fees.

(c). The contents of any and all promotion and/or marketing materials used by a Referral Participant must be approved in writing by Filmhub (email to suffice) prior to their publication or use.  This includes but is not limited to website graphics, advertisements, social media posts, print banners and any other materials that refer to the Sites or use Filmhub’s name, branding, or messaging.

(d). Referral Participant will ensure that its sales, marketing and other activities related to the Filmhub Referral Program adhere to good professional and industry standards, and applicable laws.

(e). The prices, terms, and conditions under which Filmhub offers the Services to Eligible Referred Content Owners will be determined by Filmhub in its sole discretion.  Filmhub will have the authority to control all discussions and negotiations with Eligible Referred Content Owners.  Nothing in this Agreement will obligate Filmhub to consummate any transaction with any prospective Eligible Referred Content Owner.

7. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a). Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Filmhub, the Channels, and their respective subsidiaries, agents, licensors, licensees, managers, and other affiliated companies, and their employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising from: (i) your use of and access to the Sites and Services, including any data or content transmitted or received by you; (ii) your breach or violation of any term, covenant, condition, representation, or warranty contained in this Agreement; (iii) your and/or Your Content’s violation of any third-party right, including any infringement of copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property right, or right of publicity or privacy; (iv) your and/or Your Content’s violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation; or (iv) any other person’s access to and use of the Services with your unique username, password, or other appropriate security code.

In the event of any claim subject to the foregoing indemnification obligation, you will defend Filmhub at your expense with counsel approved by Filmhub, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, and Filmhub reserves the right to withhold Net Earnings due to you during the pendency of any such claim. In the event you fail to retain approved counsel, Filmhub may, if it so elects, defend itself at your cost and expense (including by setting off and recouping the amounts of such costs and expenses against your Net Earnings) and you agree that Filmhub may require your participation in such defense as a third party or otherwise and you hereby waive any objection or claim to compensation in respect of same. If a claim is made, Filmhub will have the right, in its sole discretion, to remove or disable access to Your Content and/or any associated materials that are the subject of such claim, and/or to withhold transfer of any monies due hereunder in an amount reasonably related to the claim and potential expenses. Any settlement of any such claim will be subject to Filmhub’s prior written approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim that is subject to the foregoing indemnification obligation is made against a Channel, any indemnification provisions or procedures set forth in the applicable Channel Agreement will apply, to the extent that the same supplement or are inconsistent with this Section 7.

12. ARBITRATION. READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM FILMHUB.

(a). This Arbitration section is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “agreement to arbitrate.” This agreement to arbitrate applies to and governs any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and Filmhub that arises out of or relates to, directly or indirectly: (a) this Agreement, and the formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, or enforceability thereof; (b) the Sites, the Services and access to or use of the Sites or Services, as well as receipt of any advertising, marketing, or other communications from Filmhub; (c) any transactions through, by, or using the Sites or Services; or (d) any other aspect of your relationship or transactions with Filmhub (each, a “Claim,” and, collectively, “Claims”). This agreement to arbitrate will apply, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before or after your acceptance of this Agreement.

(b). If you are a new User, you can reject and opt-out of this agreement to arbitrate within thirty (30) days of accepting this Agreement by emailing Filmhub at legalnotices@filmhub.com with your full name and stating your intent to opt-out of this agreement to arbitrate. Note that opting out of this agreement to arbitrate does not affect any other part of this Agreement, including the provisions regarding governing law or in which courts any disputes must be brought.

(c). For any Claim, you agree to first contact Filmhub at legalnotices@filmhub.comand to attempt to resolve the Claim with Filmhub informally. In the unlikely event that Filmhub has not been able to resolve a Claim it has with you within sixty (60) days, the parties hereto each agree to resolve such Claim exclusively through binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) before a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”), under the Expedited Procedures then in effect for AAA (the “Rules”), except as otherwise provided herein, or as otherwise determined by the Arbitrator. In the event of any conflict between the Rules and this agreement to arbitrate, this agreement to arbitrate will control. AAA may be contacted at www.adr.org, where the Rules are also available. The arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco County, California, unless you and Filmhub agree otherwise. If you are using the Sites or Services for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing and administrative and Arbitrator fees in accordance with the Rules, and the award rendered by the Arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. If you are an individual using the Sites or Services for non-commercial purposes: (i) AAA may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from AAA; (ii) the award rendered by the Arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorneys’ fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction, on an individual basis only, without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and Filmhub agree that the Arbitrator, and not any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the scope, interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement to arbitrate, including any claim that all or any part of this agreement to arbitrate is void or voidable, or relating to any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, unconscionability, or estoppel. The Arbitrator will also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to contract formation and whether this Agreement, or any provision of this Agreement, is unconscionable or illusory.

(d). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this agreement to arbitrate will be deemed as preventing Filmhub from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its data security, intellectual property rights, confidentiality rights, or other proprietary rights; or as preventing you from asserting claims in a small claims court, if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances on only an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

(e). If this agreement to arbitrate is found to be void, unenforceable, or unlawful, in whole or in part, the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, will be severed. Severance of the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, will have no impact on the remaining provisions of this Section 12, which will remain in force, or on the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining Claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 12.

(f). Notwithstanding anything else contained herein or in any Preexisting Agreement or Supplemental Agreement, you agree that your rights and remedies in the event of any breach of this agreement or any Preexisting Agreement or Supplemental Agreement by Filmhub will be limited to the right, if any, to recover money damages, and in no event will you be entitled by reason of any such breach to seek injunctive or other equitable relief or to enjoin or restrain the distribution, exhibition, advertising, or any other means of exploitation of Your Content.

13. CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER. WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SITES OR SERVICES FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS MUTUAL WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AND FILMHUB MUTUALLY AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY NOT AFFECT OTHER USERS. YOU AND FILMHUB FURTHER AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND FILMHUB ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO BRING, JOIN, OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER.

14. GOVERNING LAW. You agree that this Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of the agreement to arbitrate in Section 12 and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA is found to not apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the agreement to arbitrate, then that issue will be resolved under and governed by the law of your state of residence. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts located in San Francisco, California for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of our data security, intellectual property rights, confidentiality rights, or other proprietary rights, as set forth in the agreement to arbitrate, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. You agree that the state and Federal courts located in San Francisco, California are the proper and exclusive forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the agreement to arbitrate in Section 12 is found to be unenforceable.

15. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a). Assignment. This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred, or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Filmhub without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment of this Agreement by you without Filmhub’s prior written consent will be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you request us to do so, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the transfer of Your Content that has been uploaded via the Sites to a User Account established by your successor in the event of your reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of your stock or assets.

(b). Notice Procedures and Changes to the Agreement. Filmhub may provide notices to you via email or hard copy, or through posting on the Sites. Filmhub reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notices to our Users. Filmhub is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notices that we send to the email address you provide us.

(c). Further Assurances. You agree to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, and record such further certificates, amendments, instruments, and documents, and to do all such other acts and things, as may be required by applicable law or as may be necessary or advisable to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you will, upon Filmhub’s request, supply to Filmhub all chain-of-title documents regarding literary, dramatic, and musical material, each Name and Likeness, and any other material contained in Your Content (provided that Filmhub’s review of any such documents in no way limits your representations, warranties, and obligations under this Agreement).

(d). Entire Agreement; Severability; Usage. This Agreement, together with any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with Filmhub in connection with the Services (including any Channel Agreement, Preexisting Agreement or Supplemental Agreement), constitutes the entire agreement between you and Filmhub concerning the Sites and the Services. Subject to Section 12(e) with respect to the agreement to arbitrate, if any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect. All terms defined in this Agreement in their singular or plural forms have correlative meanings when used in their plural or singular forms, respectively. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” do not limit the preceding words or terms and will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(e). No Waiver. No waiver of any term of this Agreement will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Filmhub’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

(f). Relationship. You acknowledge and agree that Filmhub, in providing the Sites and Services, is not acting in a fiduciary capacity. You, the Channels, and Filmhub are each independent contractors. No agency, fiduciary, partnership, joint venture, employer/employee, or franchiser/franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement between Filmhub (or any Channel) and you.

(g). Channels as Third Party Beneficiaries. If you make Your Content available via the Services, you agree that the Channels are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and that with respect to Your Content, each of the Channels is entitled to rely on your representations and warranties, and to enforce your indemnities, contained in this Agreement.

(h). Bankruptcy. In the event of your bankruptcy, you and Filmhub acknowledge and agree that the licensed rights to Your Content hereunder are fundamentally in the nature of “intellectual property” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code entitled “Bankruptcy,” as now or hereafter in effect, or any successor statute (“Bankruptcy Code”); that Filmhub’s continued enjoyment of all licensed rights is fundamental to the basic license hereunder; and therefore all licensed rights should be deemed intellectual property subject to Filmhub’s election under Section 365(n)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code. You and Filmhub agree that the definition of “intellectual property” in Title 11 of the United States Code also includes trademarks and service marks, as trademarks and service marks are inextricably linked to the other intellectual property to which rights are granted to Filmhub under this Agreement. You and Filmhub agree that upon any election by Filmhub pursuant to Section 365(n)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code, Filmhub will be entitled to, on its own or through employees, contractors, agents or otherwise, upgrade, modify and develop derivative works based upon the rights licensed hereunder. In the event of Filmhub’s Bankruptcy, you agree that, notwithstanding Section 365(c)(1) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, Filmhub may assume this Agreement and may assign this Agreement.
