You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to sell the


material to visitors to Score Exchange, and to provide the material to our
commercial partners via our reseller network. You may optionally revoke permission
to provide your material to the Reseller Network using the options from the "My

material is offered for sale at the price that you specify, but we do not guarantee
it and we will not be liable to you for any loss or damage arising from any errors
that we make in pricing.

You appoint us to act as your authorised representative, granting us permisison


to issue 'take down' requests to third parties where we believe that your right
have been infringed by someone downloading your material from Score Exchange and
illegally sharing it somewhere else. For the avoidence of doubt: This is not
exclusive - you may also appoint other representitives.

3. Sales of your material

3.1 Sales of material via ScoreExchange.com

When we sell any of your material to a Score Exchange visitor, we


simultaneously agree to purchase the same material from you, and you agree to sell
the same material to us. The price that you sell the material to us will be the net
amount paid by the visitor for the material less a percentage discount, plus
applicable VAT. The level of discount that you will provide is specified in
appendix A. If you are required to charge VAT on your sales, you must notify us by
completing your VAT number via the financial details section of your contact
information in the "My account" pages.

We will keep records of all sales of your material and will make these
records available via the "My account" pages, so that you can monitor the
transactions.

On the 15th of each calendar month or the next normal working day, we will
raise an invoice from you to us for the value of the material that we have agreed
to purchase from you in the preceding calendar month. We will send a copy of this
invoice to you by email for your records.

3.2 Sales of material via the Score Exchange Reseller Network

When a Score Exchange reseller reports a sale of your material on the


reseller network, we simultaneously agree to purchase the material from you.

The price that you sell the material to us to fulfil a sale via the
Reseller Network will be 60% of the recommended retail price that you have
specified, less a percentage discount, plus applicable VAT. The level of discount
that you will provide is specified in appendix A. If you are required to charge VAT
on your sales, you must notify us by completing your VAT number via the financial
details section of your contact information in the "My account" pages.

We will keep records of all sales of your material and will make these
records available via the "My account" pages, so that you can monitor the
transactions.

On the 15th of the second calendar month following a sale of your material
via the Reseller Network we will raise an invoice from you to us for the value of
our purchase to fulfil that sale. We will send a copy of this invoice to you by
email for your records.

3.3 Payment of your invoices to us

We will pay the invoice amount to you via one of our online payment
providers within 30 days. You must maintain an account with one of our chosen
payment providers and supply us with the payment details for the account in order
to receive the payment. We are not liable for late payments in the event of your
failure to maintain a suitable account to receive payment.

If you are required to charge VAT it is your responsibility to account for


any applicable VAT on your sales to us at your local rate. As a VAT registered
company based in the United Kingdom, we will only pay VAT to UK VAT registered
publishers. If you are VAT registered in any European Union Country other than the
UK then you must account for the VAT due at your local rate. We will not pay VAT to
publishers outside of the EU.

Except as expressly provided in section 3, we will not be obliged to pay


any fee or other compensation or consideration of any nature to you for the
material or any display, performance, reproduction, distribution, or other use
thereof by any third party. Except as expressly provided in section 3, in no event
will we be required to report to you, account to you for, or share with you, any
fees or other compensation or consideration that we may receive in connection with
our exercise of the rights granted to us in this agreement.

agreement and any guidelines that are provided by us from time to time on the

copyright to any material that you upload to Score Exchange you must be prepared to
provide us with a copy of the written permission from the copyright holder within 7
days of our request to see it.
For the avoidance of doubt, all material will be considered to be automatically

original creator.

In the case of sales directly from scoreexchange.com: The net sale price (i.e.
excluding any VAT) that we have collected from visitors when selling your material
on ScoreExchange.com

In the case of sales via the Score Exchange Reseller Network: The net sale price
(i.e. excluding any VAT) that we have collected from the reseller. This will be 60%

Appendix B - Approved online payment providers

PayPal - www.paypal.com
If you use PayPal to receive your payments from us, then you will not be charged

system for sending your payment, which is where the sender (us) pays the fee. In
the unlikely event the PayPal don't allow this in your territory we will use a
regular PayPal payment method instead and you will pay any paypal fee applicable to
receiving the payment.
