DIGITAL Collectible TERMS

By purchasing or otherwise obtaining a unique, non-fungible token created by or on behalf of Allied Esports International, Inc. (including its parent and subsidiaries, collectively, “Allied Esports”) (each such non-fungible token, an “NFT”), either through an initial transfer from Allied Esports or a subsequent transfer from the prior owner of the NFT, you agree to these Digital Collectible Terms by and between you and Allied Esports (together, the “Terms”).

Please note that these Terms contain a mandatory arbitration provision that, as further set forth below, requires the use of arbitration on an individual and not a class-wide or consolidated basis to resolve any past, pending, or future disputes between you and Allied Esports (and, if applicable, Allied Esports’ licensors), rather than jury trials or any other court proceedings of any kind.  If you do not wish to be subject to arbitration on a retroactive basis, you may opt out of the arbitration provision within thirty (30) days by following the instructions provided at the end of Section 10, below.

  1. The NFT is a unit of data, which may be part of a series of such data units, created by or on behalf of Allied Esports, that resides on the Ethereum blockchain and is specifically associated with one or more works of authorship owned or controlled by Allied Esports (“Digital Content”) such that, if you own the NFT, you can access such Digital Content through the NFT pursuant to these Terms (each NFT combined with the right to access the Digital Content associated with such NFT (subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms) shall be collectively referred to as the “Digital Collectible”). It is important to understand, and you hereby acknowledge and agree, that the NFT is separate from the Digital Content; the NFT itself is sold or otherwise transferred to you and, by owning the NFT, you receive the rights to access the Digital Content through the NFT, subject to and in accordance with these Terms. The Digital Content is neither stored nor embedded in the NFT, but is accessible through the NFT, subject to compliance with these Terms.

  2. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Allied Esports hereby grants to you, to the extent of Allied Esports’ rights in the Digital Content, and solely for so long as you own the NFT, the worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable, non-assignable, nonsublicensable worldwide right to access, view, and/or display the Digital Content associated with the purchased NFT as part of the Digital Collectible, solely for your own personal entertainment and enjoyment,  and not for any commercial use. Except as expressly set forth herein, all rights in the Digital Content are expressly reserved by Allied Esports and its licensors and your purchase of the NFT does not include any rights to the Digital Content, except as expressly provided in these Terms. Without limiting the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, your ownership, possession, or control of the NFT does not provide you any ownership, copyright, title, or similar interest in any Digital Content.

  3. In connection with the Digital Collectible, you may not, nor may you permit any third party to, do or attempt to do any of the following without Allied Esports’ express prior written consent in each case: (i) modify the Digital Content associated with the Digital Collectible in any way, including, without limitation, the sounds, shapes, designs, drawings, attributes or color schemes thereof; (ii) use the Digital Content associated with your Digital Collectible, including the name, likeness, image or persona of any individual or character associated with such Digital Content (the “Persona”), or any other elements of the Digital Content, to advertise, market, promote, or sell any product or service or otherwise use the Digital Content or any Persona associated with your Digital Collectible for your or any third party’s commercial benefit; (iii) use the Digital Content or any Persona associated with your Digital Collectible in connection with images, videos or other forms of media that depict hatred, intolerance, violence, cruelty, political matters, X-rated material, nudity or partial nudity, materials exposing cruelty, physical, or emotional acts against any person or animal that are primarily intended to hurt or inflict pain, any prescription or habitforming drugs, drug-related paraphernalia, firearms, tobacco products, alcohol, gambling, embarrassing personal hygiene products, adult-oriented or salacious products or services, or anything else that could reasonably be construed to constitute hate speech, infringe upon the rights of others, generally be considered untrue, defamatory, obscene, profane or indecent, or otherwise harm or reasonably be likely to harm Allied Esports’ (or any of its licensors') names, brands, or reputation or contravenes applicable laws or Allied Esports’ or its licensors' policies or guidelines; (iv) use the Digital Content in movies, videos, or any other forms of media, including, without limitation, the creation or minting of any new non-fungible tokens; (v) sell, distribute for commercial gain (including, without limitation, giving away in the hopes of eventual commercial gain) or otherwise commercialize merchandise that includes, contains or consists of the Digital Content (including any elements thereof) or any Persona associated with the Digital Collectible; (vi) attempt to trademark, copyright or otherwise acquire additional intellectual property rights in or to the Digital Content or any Persona associated with the Digital Collectible(s); (vii) otherwise utilize the Digital Content and the Digital Collectible for your or any third party's commercial benefit or personal gain (including, without limitation, crowd-funding or similar activities); (viii) create, sell, or attempt to create or sell, fractionalized interests in the NFT or the Digital Collectible; or (ix) separate, unlink, or decouple the Digital Content or any Persona from the NFT with which it is associated to form the Digital Collectible. Allied Esports may use or implement technical measures with respect to the security of the Digital Content or Digital Collectible and you will not take any action to interfere with, circumvent, disable or otherwise obstruct any such security-related features or other digital rights management functions associated with the Digital Content or Digital Collectible or reverse engineer or take any other action that may affect the technology associated therewith.

  4. The Digital Collectible may incorporate intellectual property, including copyrighted materials, trade names, trademarks or service marks, Digital Content and Persona, of Allied Esports or its licensors (together, the “IP”). As between you and Allied Esports, the Digital Content and all other such IP is owned by Allied Esports or its licensors. Your use of such IP is subject to the rights granted above and any additional restrictions imposed by the owner(s) of such IP to the extent that Allied Esports informs you of such additional restrictions, and you may not use any such IP in connection with any business, product or service, or in any manner that may imply endorsement of any business, message, product or service, or that is likely to cause confusion or dilute, blur, or tarnish such IP. For clarity, you acknowledge that the Digital Content is not affiliated with any business, product, or service other than Allied Esports, its affiliates, and licensors.  All use of such IP, including any goodwill generated by such use, shall inure to the benefit of Allied Esports, its affiliates and/or its and their licensors, as applicable.

  5. The Digital Collectible is made available from the United States, and is not intended by Allied Esports and its affiliates, and its and their licensors, to be subject any non-U.S. jurisdiction or law. The Digital Collectible and/or the NFT may not be appropriate or available for use in some non-U.S. jurisdictions. Any use, sale or transfer of the Digital Collectible is at your own risk, and you must comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in connection with any such activities.

  6. THE DIGITAL COLLECTIBLE IS INTENDED FOR CONSUMER ENJOYMENT, USE, AND CONSUMPTION ONLY. IT IS NOT A “SECURITY,” AS DEFINED UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS, OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY U.S. STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION.

  7. The limited license set forth in Section 2 applies only to the extent you continue to own the NFT. You may sell, assign or otherwise transfer the NFT to a third party, provided that the following conditions are met:

    • such sale, assignment or other transfer is conducted through an online non-fungible token platform that cryptographically verifies that you are the actual owner of the NFT being transferred (“Platform”);

    • such sale, assignment or other transfer must comply with (i) such Platform’s applicable terms and (ii) any applicable laws, regulations, regulatory guidance, and rules; and

    • prior to such sale, assignment or other transfer, you must (i) provide written notice to the would-be transferee that such transferee’s use of (including any access to) the Digital Collectible will be conditional upon such transferee entering into the then-current version of these Terms, and (ii) ensure that such transferee is provided with an opportunity to review these Terms.

If at any time you sell, swap, donate, give away, transfer, or otherwise dispose of your NFT for any reason through any means, your rights under Section 2 will immediately terminate (without the requirement of notice) with respect to the Digital Content associated with your NFT. Your rights under Section 2 will also immediately terminate (without the requirement of notice) if you breach these Terms.

Without limiting the foregoing, if you offer or list any NFT for sale, or use any NFT to create or offer any asset, listing or collection, or take any other action in a manner that violates these Terms, any applicable terms of use governing marketplace, platforms, or distribution channels on which you purchased the NFT ("Platform Terms"), or any applicable laws, Allied Esports or its designee(s) may take corrective actions, as appropriate, including but not limited to removing, deleting or disabling the NFT, corresponding Digital Content or Digital Collectible, listing, or collection, disabling access to or services relating to the NFT or any corresponding Digital Content or Digital Collectible, deleting your user account, destroying inappropriate metadata stored on Allied Esports’ or its designees' servers, and/or permanently withholding any payments that would otherwise be made to you.

You acknowledge and agree that Allied Esports or its designee(s) may receive a royalty from or in connection with your sale of, and any other future sale of, the NFT to compensate Allied Esports or its designees for the initial development of the NFT and licensing and development of IP and the Digital Content. The royalty will be embedded in the NFT via a smart contract in which the NFT is originally issued by Allied Esports (the “Smart Contract”). You agree that such fee is initiated, transferred, and processed through the Smart Contract, and shall be binding upon you for so long as you own the NFT.
