free collections such as Sound Express or Sound Effects by Getty Images (the PRF Collections), this Licence Agreement shall be deemed to
include the direct grant to Licensee of the right to publicly perform the Licensed Material in the licensed territory, and no fee which would otherwise
become due and payable as a result of a public performance of the Licensed Material as contemplated by this Licence Agreement shall be due to
Getty Images or its contributors, nor shall this Licence Agreement require Licensee to report usage of the Licensed Material to any Collection
Societies. In furtherance of the foregoing, Getty Images has used reasonable efforts to ensure that it holds all rights in the content from its PRF
Collections necessary to issue direct licences, inclusive of all performing rights, mechanical or any other similar rights, without need for payment of
further royalties to any Collection Society. However, in certain jurisdictions outside of the United States (for example, France and Spain), Licensee
may be required to pay royalties to Collection Societies due to exploitation of the Licensed Material in that jurisdiction (regardless of whether any
contributor of the Licensed Material is a member of the applicable societies). Licensee must determine if such requirements exist in the applicable
jurisdiction and is solely responsible for any such fees.
4.2 Except as set forth above in Section 4.1 with respect to PRF Collections, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any fee
which, as a result of the use of the Licensed Material contemplated by this Agreement, shall become due and payable to the relevant Collection
Society or pursuant to union or collective bargaining requirements. Licensee agrees to submit, and to instruct any third party acquiring rights to the
Work to submit, to all relevant Collection Societies, in any part of the Territory in which the Work is to be Broadcast or reproduced, such filings,
including so-called "cue sheets" and further agrees to take such actions as are necessary, in keeping with common industry practice, to enable such
Collection Societies to monitor and administer those performing and mechanical rights fees payable to the copyright owners of the Licensed Material
embodied in the Work.

5. Warranty and Limitation of Liability.
5.1 Getty Images warrants that: (i) the Licensed Material will be free from defects in material and workmanship for thirty (30) days from delivery
(Licensee's sole and exclusive remedy for a breach of this warranty being the replacement of the Licensed Material); (ii) it has all necessary rights
and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement; and (iii) Licensee's use of the Licensed Material in its original form, and when used in
accordance with this Agreement, will not infringe upon the rights of any third party, including copyrights and rights of privacy or publicity.
5.2 GETTY IMAGES DOES NOT MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE LICENSED MATERIAL OR ITS
DELIVERY SYSTEMS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. GETTY IMAGES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY PUNITIVE,
SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES, COSTS OR LOSSES ARISING OUT OF THIS
AGREEMENT, EVEN IF GETTY IMAGES HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, COSTS OR LOSSES. SOME
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN
CATEGORIES OF DAMAGES. GETTY IMAGES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, COSTS OR LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR AS A
RESULT OF MODIFICATIONS MADE TO THE LICENSED MATERIAL BY LICENSEE OR THE CONTEXT IN WHICH LICENSED MATERIAL IS
USED IN A LICENSEE WORK.

expenses (including reasonable outside attorneys' fees) arising out of or as a result of claims by third parties (Claims) relating to any actual or
alleged breach by Getty Images of its warranties set forth in Section 5.1(ii)-(iii) above. Getty Images shall have no obligation under this Section 6.1
for any Claims that arise out of or are a result of: (i) Licensees modification of the Licensed Material, where the Claim would not have arisen but for
the modification made by Licensee; (ii) the context in which Licensed Material is used in a Licensee Work, where the Claim would not have arisen but
for such context; (iii) Licensees failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement; or (iv) Licensees continued use of Li censed Material following
notice from Getty Images, or upon Licensees knowledge, that Licensed Material is subject to a claim of infringement of anothers right. The foregoing
states Getty Images' entire indemnification obligation under this Agreement.
6.2 Licensee shall, subject to the terms of Section 6.3 below, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Getty Images and its parent, subsidiaries and

outside the scope of this Agreement; or (ii) any other actual or alleged breach by Licensee of this Agreement.
6.3 The party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 shall promptly notify the other party of such claim. At indemnifying party's option,

the defence of any such claim or litigation as may reasonably be requested by indemnifying party. Indemnified party shall have the right to

Copying.

or more of the amount Licensee should have paid for the time period that is the subject of the audit, in addition to paying Getty Images the amount
of such underpayment, Licensee shall also reimburse Getty Images for the costs of conducting such audit. Where Getty Images reasonably believes

11.4 Governing Law/Arbitration. This Agreement will be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without reference to its
laws relating to conflicts of law. Any disputes arising from or related to this Agreement or its enforceability, or the business relationship between the
parties, shall be finally settled by binding, confidential arbitration by a single arbitrator selected using the rules and procedures for arbitrator
selection under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution ("ICDR")

jurisdictions (whichever is closest to Licensee): Seattle, Washington; New York, New York; Los Angeles, California; London, England; Paris, France;
Frankfurt, Germany; Tokyo, Japan or Singapore. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English and all documentation shall be presented
and filed in English. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgement may be entered on the arbitration award
and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable legal costs relating to that
aspect of its claim or defence on which it prevails, and any opposing costs awards shall be offset. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for
the International Sale of Goods does not govern this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Getty Images shall have the right to commence
and prosecute any legal or equitable action or proceeding before any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain injunctive or other relief against
Licensee in the event that, in the opinion of Getty Images, such action is necessary or desirable. The parties agree that, notwithstanding any
otherwise applicable statute(s) of limitations, any arbitration proceeding shall be commenced within two years of the acts, events or occurrences
giving rise to the claim.

legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. Such provisions shall be revised only to the extent necessary to make
them enforceable.
11.6 Waiver. No action of either party, other than express written waiver, may be construed as a waiver of any provision of this Agreement. A delay on
the part of either party in the exercise of its rights or remedies will not operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies, and a single or partial
exercise by either party of any such rights or remedies will not preclude other or further exercise of that right or remedy. A waiver of a right or
remedy on one occasion will not be construed as a bar to or waiver of rights or remedies on any other occasion.

terms or conditions may be added or deleted unless made in writing and either accepted in writing by an authorised representative of both parties
