NFT License Terms
These NFT License Terms constitute a legally binding agreement (the “Agreement”) between you and each of Atmos Labs, Inc. (“Licensor”).
By using the Atmos Labs Portal (the “Portal”), the Atmos Labs Exordium website (“Exordium”), minting
an NFT on or through either the Portal or Exordium, or purchasing an NFT through or minted on the
Portal or Exordium, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by this Agreement, the Atmos Labs
Terms of Use (the “Terms of Use”) and our Privacy Policy and incorporated herein by reference.
If you do not agree with this Agreement, the Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, you must not access or
use the Portal or Exordium or mint or purchase a Purchased NFT.
THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO
RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS. BY PURCHASING
OR OTHERWISE OBTAINING THE PURCHASED NFT (defined below), OR OTHERWISE
INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY
THIS AGREEMENT AND YOU ALSO REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST
18 YEARS OF AGE AND ARE OTHERWISE LEGALLY COMPETENT TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, or if you are not at least 18 years of
age and otherwise legally competent to enter into this Agreement, you must not proceed with your NFT
purchase (or other transfer) or otherwise indicate your acceptance of this Agreement.
- Definitions. As used in this Agreement:
-
“NFT” means any blockchain-based, non-fungible token, such as those conforming to the ERC-721 standard, ERC-1155
standard, or similar standards that are associated with one or more Works.
-
“Own” means, with respect to an NFT, that the party is recorded as the rightful owner of
the NFT on the relevant blockchain or within records maintained by Licensor, its affiliates, or any of their
service providers.
-
“Purchased NFT” means the NFT purchased by you from Licensor or secondary seller
(or otherwise transferred to you), which NFT is Owned by the seller prior to the sale or other transfer and
Owned by you after the sale or other transfer.
-
“Third Party IP” means any third-party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of
publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right recognized in any country or jurisdiction
in the world.
-
“Work” means any aspect associated with the Purchased NFT that is or may be protected
by patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or
proprietary right recognized in any country or jurisdiction in the world. By way of example only, Works
may comprise music, sound-recordings, videos, artwork, graphics, designs (including 2-D and 3-D),
photographs, names, likenesses, trademarks, taglines, and trade dress. For purposes of clarity, the
Purchased NFT may have more than one Work. By way of example only, the front artwork and back
artwork of a digital card NFT are each a Work.
-
Ownership of Works. You acknowledge and agree that the Licensor of each Work (or, if
and as applicable, its licensor) owns all legal right, title and interest in and to the Work and all intellectual
property and other proprietary rights therein recognized in any country or jurisdiction in the world. Except
for the rights expressly granted to you in Section 3 of this Agreement, the Licensor of each Work (and, if
and as applicable, its licensor) reserves all rights and ownership in and to the Work.
- Rights.
-
License Grant. Subject to your continued compliance with this Agreement,
Licensor grants you a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as expressly permitted in
Section 3(c)), royalty-free license to use, copy, display and perform the respective Works solely during
the period when you Own the Purchased NFT and solely for the following purposes: (a) for your own
personal, non-commercial viewing; (b) as part of a marketplace that permits the purchase and sale of your
Purchased NFT, provided that the marketplace cryptographically verifies each NFT owner’s rights to
display the works associated with the NFTs (including the Purchased NFT) to ensure that only the actual
recorded owners can display the works (including each Work) and offer the NFTs for sale; or (c) as part
of a third-party NFT museum or gallery website or application that permits the inclusion, involvement, or
participation of your Purchased NFT, provided that the website or application cryptographically verifies
each NFT owner’s rights to display or perform the works associated with the NFTs (including the
Purchased NFT) to ensure that only the actual recorded owner can display the works (including each
Work), and provided that the works are no longer visible once the owner of the NFT (including the
Purchased NFT) leaves the website or application. Without limiting any of the foregoing, you have no
license or rights to make any commercial use of any Work.
-
Additional Benefits. Licensor may occasionally intend for certain Purchased
NFTs to be accompanied by additional entitlements and benefits, such as the opportunity to participate in
limited-time events or promotions or the option to obtain exclusive assets (the “Additional Benefits”). In
the event Licensor decides, in its sole discretion, to offer any Additional Benefits, such entitlements and
benefits will be subject to whatever terms are provided by Licensor in addition to this Agreement (the
“Additional Terms”), and such Additional Terms may be a prerequisite for accessing or obtaining the
Additional Benefits. Licensor cannot guarantee that Additional Benefits intended for, or promoted along
with, a particular Purchased NFT will, in fact, be provided to Purchaser, and Purchaser acknowledges that
it is obtaining each Purchased NFT for its own sake and not for any potential Additional Benefits that it
expects to obtain by purchasing the NFT, regardless of whether or not Licensor intended to, or promoted
that it would, include Additional Benefits with the Purchased NFT. No rights in any Additional Benefits
are conveyed along with the Purchased NFT until Purchaser enters into the Additional Terms. In addition,
although we do not guarantee that they will, third parties may grant Purchased NFT owners various
entitlements and benefits. If a third party does so, such entitlements and benefits will be subject to
whatever terms are provided by such third parties. We are not responsible or liable for any third-party
entitlements or benefits.
-
Permissible Transfers. You may transfer the Purchased NFT only if: (i) the
transferee accepts all the terms of this Agreement and is at least 18 years of age and otherwise legally
competent to enter into this Agreement; (ii) the Licensor is paid five percent (5%) (or in the case of any
Exordium NFT seven and one-half percent (7.5%)) of the gross amounts paid by the transferee relating to
the Purchased NFT (and on each subsequent transfer) and such payment is made to the Licensor on the
same terms and at the same time as you are paid, provided that, if such payment is not made to the
Licensor through the applicable marketplace, you shall remain liable to the Licensor for such amounts
(additional fees may be charged by third parties such as OpenSea); (iii) you have not breached this
Agreement or any Atmos Labs Terms of Use prior to or in connection with the transfer; (iv) you, the
transferee, and any other person or entity involved with the transfer (including any NFT marketplace used
for the transfer) complies with all applicable laws and regulations, including with respect to antibribery,
antimoney laundering, knowyourcustomer, and sanctioned country sales (without limiting the foregoing,
sales to residents of Burma (Myanmar), Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Russia, and Syria are expressly
prohibited or of any country that is subject to a United States embargo, or that has been designated as a
“terrorist supporting” country); (v) the Purchased NFT is transferred as a unitary NFT and you do not
fractionalize ownership of the Purchased NFT on the blockchain (such that the NFT or any part of the
NFT is held in more than one digital wallet at the same time) or otherwise; and (vi) your license to the
Purchased NFT (including each Work) has not been terminated prior to the transfer. Any transfer or attempt to transfer in violation of this Section 3(c) is null and void and constitutes a breach of this
Agreement.
- Restrictions.
-
Limitations on Use. You agree that you must not do, nor permit any third party to
do, or attempt to do, any of the following without the express prior written consent of Licensor in each
instance: (i) modify the Purchased NFT or any Work in any way; (ii) use the Purchased NFT or any Work
to advertise, market, or sell any product or service; (iii) use the Purchased NFT or any Work in
connection with images, videos, or other forms of media that depict hatred, intolerance, violence, cruelty,
or anything else that could reasonably be found to constitute hate speech or otherwise infringe upon the
rights of others, drugs (including, without limitation, both prescription and non-prescription) or other
supplements, death, pornography or other “adult only” or sexually explicit activities, massage parlors,
prostitution or any dating or escort activities, weapons or ammunition, denigration or discrimination
against individuals based on race, national origin, gender, religion, disability, ethnicity, sexual orientation,
gender identity or age, medical conditions or political campaigns or causes; (iv) use the Purchased NFT or
any Work in movies, videos, or any other forms of media, except solely for your own personal, non-
commercial use; (v) sell, distribute for commercial gain (including, by way of example only, giving away
in the hopes of eventual commercial gain), or otherwise commercialize merchandise that includes,
contains, or consists of the Purchased NFT or any Work; (vi) register or attempt to register any trademark
(or any confusingly similar trademark) or any copyright (or create or register any derivative work), or
otherwise acquire additional rights in any intellectual property or other proprietary rights recognized in
any country or jurisdiction in the world, in or to the Purchased NFT or any Work; or (vii) otherwise use
any Work for your or any third party’s commercial benefit.
-
Third Party IP. If any Work contains Third Party IP, you understand and agree
that: (i) you do not have the right to use such Third Party IP in any way except as incorporated in the
Work and subject to the terms of this Agreement; (ii) depending on the nature of the license granted from
the owner of the Third Party IP, seller or Licensor may need to pass through additional terms (which may
include additional restrictions) on your use of the Purchased NFT and any Work; and (iii) to the extent
that seller or a Licensor informs you of such additional restrictions by email or other writing, you will be
responsible for complying with all such restrictions from the date that you receive the notice, and failure
to do so will constitute a breach of this Agreement.
-
License Termination. The rights licensed to you under this Agreement shall automatically
terminate and all rights shall return to the Licensor (or, as applicable, its licensors) without the
requirement of notice if: (i) at any time you sell, trade, donate, give away, transfer, or otherwise dispose
of your Purchased NFT; (ii) you breach any terms of this Agreement; (iii) you violate any applicable laws
or regulations, including with respect to antibribery, antimoney laundering, knowyourcustomer, and
sanctioned country sales; or (iv) you engage in any unlawful business practice related to the Purchased
NFT or any Work.
-
LIMITED WARRANTY; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. LICENSOR WARRANTS TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO ITS WORKS THAT IT HAS
THE RIGHT TO GRANT THE LIMITED LICENSES GRANTED TO YOU HEREIN. EXCEPT FOR
THE EXPRESS WARRANTY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 6, THE PURCHASED NFT IS
PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW,
EACH LICENSOR DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT,
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE LIABLE
FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE,
COMPUTER, DEVICE OR TECHNOLOGY FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR FOR ANY FORM
OF DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHETHER FOR BREACH OF
CONTRACT, TORTIOUS BEHAVIOR, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION,
REGARDLESS OF THE BASIS UPON WHICH LIABILITY IS CLAIMED AND WHETHER A
REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, AND EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE. IN ANY EVENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF EACH
LICENSOR SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US $100.00). IF
APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW ALL OR ANY PART OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS
OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY TO APPLY TO YOU, THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS
WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
- Release and Indemnity.
-
You agree to release and forever discharge (to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law) Licensor and its affiliates, licensors and suppliers, and each of their respective successors
and assigns, from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, those for bodily injury and emotional distress) arising out of or related to
the Purchased NFT, its associated Works, or your use of any of the foregoing. IF YOU ARE A
CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 IN
CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, WHICH SECTION STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE
DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO
EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF
KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT
WITH THE DEBTOR.”
-
You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Licensor and their
respective affiliates, licensors, and suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees,
contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns, from and against any third-party claim
(including all liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses associated therewith) arising out of or
related to: (i) the Purchased NFT, its associated Works, or your use of any of the foregoing; (ii) your
violation of this Agreement or any applicable law; or (iii) your violation of any third party’s rights.
- Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.
-
YOU ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS
IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR
REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU
WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE
LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND
INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT,
INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND LICENSOR ARISING FROM OR
RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE PURCHASED NFT, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY
AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
-
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in
accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as
modified by this Section 8. (The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling the AAA at +1-800-778-7879.) The United States Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of
this Section 8. If the dispute has a claimed value of not more than US $250,000, then the arbitration will
be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a retired judge or a lawyer with not less than
Page 5 of 7
15 years’ experience as a practicing member of the bar in the substantive practice area related to the
dispute. If the dispute has a claimed value of more than $250,000, or if Licensor elects in its sole
discretion to bear the costs of arbitration in excess of those that would occur for a proceeding before a
single neutral arbitrator, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a three member panel. If
there are 3 parties to the dispute, then each party will select one member of the panel. If there are 2 parties
to the dispute, then each party will select one member and the third member (who will be chair of the
panel) will be selected by the two party appointed members or by the AAA. The arbitrator or panel will
have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability or enforceability of this arbitration
provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision
or the Agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator or panel will be empowered to
grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator or
panel will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
-
You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, YOU WILL
NOT BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER PERSONS
OR ENTITIES IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM
AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's or entity’s claims and may
not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no
power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class
arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction. If any provision of this
arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the
remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
-
The foregoing provisions of Section 8 will not apply to any legal action taken by
Licensor to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with any loss, cost, or damage (or
any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to its intellectual property rights, its products, or its services.
You agree that such claims may be brought in the state or federal courts located in the Chicago, Illinois
and you waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
-
ANY CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM
ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
-
Miscellaneous. This Agreement is the sole and entire agreement with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement cannot be amended except in an express writing signed
by at least two authorized representatives of Licensor. In the event of any conflict between this
Agreement, the Atmos Labs NFT Purchase Portal Terms of Use and the terms of any other marketplace
used in connection with any transfer of the Purchased NFT, the following order of precedence shall apply:
(1) the terms of this Agreement; (2) the Atmos Labs NFT Purchase Portal Terms of Use; (3) the terms of
any other marketplace used in connection with the transfer of the Purchased NFT. If you are provided a
translation of this Agreement, the original version in English will be used in deciding any issues or
disputes which arise under this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
This Agreement and all matters related to it shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the United States of America and the State of Illinois, as they are applied to agreements
entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of Illinois and without regard to conflict of law
principles, except to the extent that law is inconsistent with or preempted by federal law.
