(i)          Collaborative Screenplays: A CollaborativeScreenplay is started by a Starter, and can be public (“Public Collaborative Screenplays”) which any other registered User of the Service can follow and contribute to,or private (“Private Collaborative Screenplays”)which another User can follow or contribute to only after requesting an invitation or receiving an invitation from the Starter of the PrivateCollaborativeScreenplay. The fee that We charge (“OSI Fee”) for the monetization of eachCollaborativeScreenplay will be10% of the Gross Revenue (defined below) which We receive from such monetization, either from a Buyer directly or through an Agent (if any). EachScreenplay is governed by the TOU and each Collaborative Screenplay is governed by the TOU and the ScreenplayEquity Terms which are available for you to review in the Support Pages that are accessible after You register for an account and log in to the Platform (“Screenplay Equity Terms”).

After a Public Collaborative Screenplay is published, a Follower can immediately submit Contribution (s) to the Screenplay Elements initially contributed by the Starter. If Contributions from a Follower to Screenplay Elements initially contributed by the Starter become Voted Contributions, they automatically replace the Starter’s initial Contributions and the Screenplay Equity Terms associated with the new Voted Contribution is removed from the Starter and given to the new Voted Contributor, however, this will not decrease the Starter Screenplay Equity Terms set forth in the Screenplay EquityTerms. If no Voted Contributions replace the Screenplay Elements initially contributed by the Starter, the Starter can earn more Screenplay EquityTerms, as set forth in the Screenplay Equity Terms.

(B)          Private Collaborative Screenplays: A Private Collaborative Screenplayi s private and can only be followed by or contributed to by registered Users who are invited by the Starter to do so or submit an invitation request to, and which is accepted by, the Starter. Registered Users invited by the Starter to contribute to the Private Collaborative Screenplay accept that the Starter of a Private Collaborative Screenplay has the sole discretion to accept or reject contributions which have been submitted by registered and invited Users. For any Private Collaborative Screenplay, the Screenplay Contributions Rules and Screenplay Equity Terms will apply, except that the Starter of the Private Collaborative Screenplay has the sole discretion to accept or reject contributions and can progress through Screenplay Phases manually. Private Collaborative Screenplay will appear in the Platform’s search results and any registered User will be able to request an invitation to follow and contribute to the Private Collaborative Screenplay, and the Starter can decide whether to accept such a request. Private Collaborative Screenplay. Reviewers will be allowed to read and review the Private Collaborative Screenplay and will be entitled to up to 10% of Screenplay Equity as according to Section 6 (vi) below. The Starter of a Private Collaborative Screenplay will be allowed to block any User from having access to their Private Collaborative Screenplay, however, any Screenplay Equity previously earned by a blocked User shall remain in their name.

(C)          Subsequent Productions: After all Screenplay Phases (as defined below) for a particular Collaborative Screenplay have been completed, a registered User may start a new Collaborative Screenplay for a subsequent episode or production based upon or adapted from the initial Collaborative Screenplay(“Subsequent Production Screenplay”), including, without limitation, in the case of an initial Screenplay for a television series production, a Subsequent Production Screenplay for a subsequent episode of such television series production and, in the case of an initial Screenplay for a feature film or a short film, a SubsequentProduction Screenplay for a remake, spinoff, sequel or prequel of such feature film or short film. When a Subsequent Production Screenplay is started, some Voted Contributions from the initial Screenplay will be carried over to the Subsequent Production Screenplay. Therefore, the original Voted Contributors of the carried over Voted Contributions will automatically receive a Screenplay Equity of the Subsequent ProductionScreenplay as indicated in the Screenplay Equity Terms. Also, the Starter of the initial Screenplay will automatically receive Screenplay Equity of the Subsequent Production Screenplay as indicated in the Screenplay Equity Terms.

(ii)           OSI Screenplays: An OSI Screenplay is a screenplay that is started by OSI, which a registered User can follow and contribute to, but which is also supported by an OSI writing committee that ensures the formatting of the OSI Screenplay adheres to industry standards(the“Writing Committee”). The OSI Fee for the monetization of each OSI Screenplay will be 25% of the Gross Revenue (defined below) which we receive from such monetization, either from a Buyer directly or through an Agent (if any). OSI Screenplays are governed by the TOU, and the Screenplay Equity Terms.

If the User so declines to execute the License in favor of OSI, the Private Screenplay will not be listed on the OpenScreenplay Market.APrivateNon-CollaborativeScreenplaymayappear in the search results of the Website. By starting a Private Non-Collaborative Screenplay, You hereby agree that Users, Buyers, and Agents will be able to view basic information about Your Private Non-Collaborative Screenplaysuch as title, genre, type and logline. A Private Non-Collaborative Screenplay is private and can only be followed by Users who are invited by the Starter to do so or submit an invitation request to, and which is accepted by, the Starter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a User enters a Private Non-Collaborative Screenplayina contest managed by OSI or elects to list the Private Non-Collaborative Screenplayin the Open Screenplay Market, before doing so, the User may be required to execute the license in favor of OSI and the Private Non-Collaborative Screenplaywill thereafter be deemed to be a Collaborative Screenplay for purposes of these TOU, however the Screenplay Equity shall not apply to a Private Non-Collaborative Screenplay.

5.     Using the Platform:

(i)          Starting a Screenplay: To start a Screenplay, a registered User as the Starter submits a title and a logline, together with any other desired Screenplay Element(s), in addition to selecting a genre on the Start Page of the Websiteandtogethermay be required to execute the license. You will also have the option to start the Screenplay under the identity of Your username in which case your identity will appear beside “Started By” on the Open Screenplay page.

(A)          Start Page. On the Start Page, the Starter may contribute one or more of the various Screenplay Elements. The Starter must also identify various properties of a Screenplay including but not limited to its type (e.g., feature film, short film, 1 hour television, etc.), genre, and determine if the Screenplay will be a Public Collaborative ScreenplayorPrivateCollaborative Screenplay Private Collaborative ScreenplayorPrivateNon-Collaborative Screenplay. The Screenplay Equity allocated to a Starter for starting a Collaborative Screenplay (“Starter ScreenplayEquity”) and the value of each Screenplay Element are set forth in the Screenplay Equity Terms.

(B)          Deleting Collaborative Screenplays.OSI shall have the right to delete or remove User Screenplay that are inactive for period of 6 months or have not completed the Script Phase in a period of 1 year after the User Screenplays’ start date.

(ii)          CollaborativeScreenplay Contribution Rules.

(A)          Timelines. OSI provides an overall timeline for completingaPublicCollaborative Screenplayand breaks down each Screenplay into phases(“Screenplay Phase”). Each Screenplay Phase has a timeline during which Followers can submit Contribution(s) to particular ScreenplayElements. Once a Screenplay Phase’s timeline reaches zero, Followers can no longer submit Contributions to the Screenplay Elements available in that Screenplay Phase. The overall timelines and duration of each Screenplay Phase vary depending on the type of Screenplay (e.g., a feature film has different timelines than a short film or 1 hour television episode), and are visible to Followers on the Screenplay’s page and the Tutorial and/or Support pages of the Platform.OSI may grant Starters of Public Collaborative Screenplays the ability to advance through Screenplay Phase at their own pace.

(B)          Contributions and Voting.

Contributions. To make a Contribution, you must first execute the license and submit it to OSI. For greater certainty, You may not make a Contribution without first submitting the executed License. For the purpose of this Agreement, if You want to contribute to a Screenplay You did not start, You must be a Follower of the Screenplay. A Starter of a Screenplay will also be registered as a Follower of such Screenplay. A Follower of a Screenplay may submit Contributions as a Contributor to Screenplay Elements during the duration of each Screenplay Phase of any Screenplay that such Follower is following. All Contributions must comply with the TOU.

Voting. You must be a Follower of a Screenplay to be eligible to vote on any Contribution to that Screenplay. Each Screenplay page will display all Contributions submitted to available Screenplay Elements and indicate how long the Followers have to submit and vote on such Contribution during each Screenplay Phase. Followers of a Screenplay will not know the identity of the Contributors during the timeline of a Screenplay Phase, and the identity of the Contributors will only be disclosed once a Contribution has been voted in and becomes a Voted Contribution. Once the Screenplay Phase timeline expires, the votes are tallied by OSI, and the Contribution with the highest number of votes for each ScreenplayElement will be incorporated into the Screenplay and become a VotedContribution. If by the end of the Screenplay Phase timeline forPublicCollaborative Screenplays, a required Screenplay Element does not receive a Contribution or receives a Contribution with no votes, the Starter will have the option of submit a Contribution for the required ScreenplayElement or allow the Screenplay Phasetobe automatically extended for successive one day periods until the required Screenplay Elementreceives a Voted Contribution. If two or more Contributions to the same Screenplay Element have an equal number of votes at the time a Screenplay Phase expires, the Starter will have the option breaking the tie or allow the Screenplay Phase will be automatically extended for successive one day periods until one of the Contributions receives a higher number of votes at the end of the one day period(s) and becomes a Voted Contribution.

Compliance with the Rules. From time to time, OSI may, in its sole and absolute discretion, choose to feature certain Screenplays, Contributors and Contributions on the Website and/or in advertising materials. You acknowledge that being featured on the Website and/or in advertising materials in no way impacts the likelihood of success of Your Contributionbecoming the Voted Contribution nor does the inclusion of any Contribution on the Website and/or in advertising materials indicate that OSI considers any Contribution to be a good example of a viable Contribution, nor does it indicate OSI’s preference for/endorsement of any Contribution.

Votes not to Include. For certain Screenplay Elements, Followers and Contributors have the option to “Vote to Not Include” a Contribution. If, at the end of a Screenplay Phase, a Contribution has a higher number of Votes to Not Include, than votes to include pursuant to Section Error!Reference source not found.above the Contribution will not become a Voted Contribution.

Starter Status Transfer. If a Public Collaborative Screenplaydoes not receive a Contribution or a Vote from a User for a period of90 days or more, OSI may enable another User to request Starter status whereby the new Starter will be able to advance through Screenplay Phasesand break tied votes as described above. In such cases, the original Starter will maintain their Screenplay Equity according to the Screenplay EquityTerms.

(C)          Revisions/Rewrites. At any point during or after the completion of a Screenplay, but provided that no Buyer Transaction of the Screenplay has yet occurred, OSI may permit Users to re-write or revise a Screenplay in whole or in part. If revisions/re-writes are permitted, there will be the opportunity for Users to provide new Contributions, which may be in addition to, or in replacement of the previously determined VotedContributions. Users hereby acknowledge and agree that in the case that revisions/rewrites are permitted, the Screenplay Equity in accordance with the Screenplay Equity Terms to which they are entitled may change depending on the type of revisions, and the extent to which new Contributions become Voted Contributions. For greater certainty, Users acknowledge and agree that during revisions/rewrites their previously allocated Screenplay Equity may be removed, diluted or otherwise modified if new Contributions are voted in. Contributors that submitted Voted Contributions that were replaced after any revisions/rewrites will lose their writing credits, subject to SectionError! Reference source not found. below, and new Contributors that submit new Voted Contributions will also be given writing credit, subject to SectionError! Reference source not found. below.

(D)           Writing Credits. After a Screenplay Phase timeline has expired or has been advanced by the Starter, each Voted Contributor will have his/her identity disclosed on the Platform. Each Starter and Voted Contributor hereby authorizes OSI to release his/her name to any potential Buyers or Agents for Buyer or Agent due diligence purposes. OSI will endeavor to secure the best available screen credits for Starters and VotedContributors and use its reasonable commercial efforts to have Buyers agree to accord writing screen credits to all Voted Contributors. By way of example only, the writing screen credits may take the following form:

“Original Screenplay provided by Open Screenplay Inc., and written by Contributors:[insert list of names of Starter and Voted Contributors].”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Starter and Voted Contributor hereby acknowledges that the screen credits are subject to negotiations with Buyers and may become subject to guild and/or union (e.g., Writers Guild of Canada or Writers Guild of America) rules and requirements and OSIdoes not guarantee and makes no representations, covenants or warranties to Starters or Voted Contributors which types or forms of screen credits will be accorded, nor that screen credits for Screenplay Elements will be treated equally. For greater certainty, if a Buyer does not grant screen credits to some or all of the Starters or Voted Contributors of a Screenplay, OSI shall not be responsible in any way.

(E)          Non-Monetary Contributions. For the purposes of the TOU, not all VotedContributions are eligible for compensation(“Non-MonetaryContributions”). Minor characters, posters, character sketches, storyboards and trailers, actor, director, and producer nominations, comments made on Contributions, and private journal entries are all types of Non-Monetary Contributions that are deemed under these TOU not to be eligible to receive compensation pursuant to the Screenplay EquityTerms.To be clear, actor, director, or producer nominations or suggestions by Contributors are merely suggestions and are not to be considered in any way an attachment of the actor, director, or producer to the Screenplay and no endorsement of whatsoever nature of such suggested participants shall be implied.

6.     Authorship, Ownership and Monetization of Screenplays.

In the case of a Collaborative Screenplay, the author or joint authors and the initial owner or-owners of the copyright therein are and shall be deemed to be the Starter (i.e. if any) together with the Voted Contributors(if any)to the Collaborative Screenplaywho share in the Screenplay Equity (defined below) for the Collaborative Screenplay. For greater certainty, Contributors of Non-Monetary Contributions to a Collaborative Screenplayshall not be considered to be either joint authors or initial co-owners of the copyright in such Screenplay.

(A)          In the case that a screenplay is a Collaborative Screenplay and written on the Platform through OSI’sCollaborative Screenplay Contribution Rules, the Starter(if any) will share authorship and ownership together with the Voted Contributors (if any) according to the ScreenplayEquityTerms and therefore, in order to facilitate monetization (as defined below), OSI will require that the Starter and Contributors execute a License to their Contributions andCollaborativeScreenplay in favor of OSI.

(B)          In the case that a User submitsaScreenplayinto a Contest, OSI will require the Starter and Contributors (if any) to execute the appropriate License in favor of OSI which shall only applytoaScreenplaythat is declared a winner in the Contest(“Winning Screenplay”)and for which the Starter and/or Contributors receive a license fee cash award (“License Fee Cash Award”). The terms of the License Fee Cash Award shall be defined by each specific Contest and shall be written on the Contest page and in the rules and guidelines of the Contest. To receive a License Fee Cash Award, the Starter and Contributors (if any) must execute and sign a release form .

OSI, in its capacity of sole and exclusive licensee of all right, title and interest of theStarter (if any) and each Voted Contributor(if any)in and to each Collaborative Screenplay, will seek to promote, market, monetize, and commercially exploiteachCollaborative Screenplayvia the Platform by, among other things, directly or, with the assistance of Agents, soliciting and negotiating with Buyers for Buyer Transactions. In an effort to promote, market and monetize a Collaborative Screenplay, OSI may, in its sole discretion, engage in “crowdfunding” or “crowdsourcing” activities (as such terms are commonly understood) with respect to such Collaborative Screenplay and is hereby expressly authorized to do so, provided that such activities do not adversely affect therespectiveparties’ participation in the Screenplay Equity as described below and the net after-tax proceeds (if any) derived by OSI from such activities shall form part of the Gross Revenue (as defined below) from the monetization of such Screenplay.
