entering into the Agreement.
(b) To the maximum extent permitted by the relevant law, You grant to Us a
perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, irrevocable
license under the Copyright covering the Contribution, with the right to
sublicense such rights through multiple tiers of sublicensees, to reproduce,
modify, display, perform and distribute the Contribution as part of the

Section 2.3.
2.2 Patent License
For patent claims including, without limitation, method, process, and apparatus
claims which You own, control or have the right to grant, now or in the future,
You grant to Us a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable,
royalty-free, irrevocable patent license, with the right to sublicense these
rights to multiple tiers of sublicensees, to make, have made, use, sell, offer
for sale, import and otherwise transfer the Contribution and the Contribution

license is granted only to the extent that the exercise of the licensed rights
infringes such patent claims; and provided that this license is conditioned
upon compliance with Section 2.3.
2.3 Outbound License
Based on the grant of rights in Sections 2.1 and 2.2, if We include Your

condition on the exercise of this right, We agree to also license the
Contribution under the terms of the license or licenses which We are using for
the Material on the Submission Date.

extent permitted by law, You waive and agree not to assert such moral rights

direct or indirect.

Contribution as part of the Material and may decide to include any Contribution
We consider appropriate.

Your parents or guardian sign the Agreement.

WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED BY YOU TO US.

OF THIS AGREEMENT REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT
OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.
6. Miscellaneous
6.1 This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of Liechtenstein excluding its conflicts of law provisions. Under certain
circumstances, the governing law in this section might be superseded by the
United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods ("UN
Convention") and the parties intend to avoid the application of the UN
Convention to this Agreement and, thus, exclude the application of the UN
Convention in its entirety to this Agreement.
6.2 This Agreement sets out the entire agreement between You and Us for Your
Contributions to Us and overrides all other agreements or understandings.
6.3 If You or We assign the rights or obligations received through this
Agreement to a third party, as a condition of the assignment, that third party
must agree in writing to abide by all the rights and obligations in the
Agreement.
6.4 The failure of either party to require performance by the other party of
any provision of this Agreement in one situation shall not affect the right of
a party to require such performance at any time in the future. A waiver of
performance under a provision in one situation shall not be considered a waiver
of the performance of the provision in the future or a waiver of the provision
in its entirety.
6.5 If any provision of this Agreement is found void and unenforceable, such
provision will be replaced to the extent possible with a provision that comes
closest to the meaning of the original provision and which is enforceable. The
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall apply notwithstanding
any failure of essential purpose of this Agreement or any limited remedy to the
