ANNEX A TO TERM SHEET - FIG REVENUE SHARING AGREEMENT

 

FIG REVENUE SHARING AGREEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

 

1. Fig Funds; Distribution; Revenue Sharing.

 

1.1. Fig Funds. Fig shall pay, and Developer agrees to accept, Fig Funds in an amount, up to the Maximum Fig Funds, but no less than the Minimum Fig Funds, less Fig Funds Withheld (as defined below) which may also include tax payments, the initial amount no later than ninety (90) Business Days of the date of this Agreement. As used herein, “Fig Funds” means funds from Fig to be used by Developer in the development, marketing, publishing and sale of the Licensed System and related assets. Prior to the Anticipated Release Date, and where the Developer requests additional sums from Fig, Fig may pay such additional sums, and these shall also be treated as Fig Funds, not subject to any Maximum Fig Funds limit.

 

1.1.1. Fig Funds Withheld. Developer agrees that Fig will retain from the cash payment of Fig Funds an amount equal to the Fig Service Fee multiplied by the Fig Funds, plus (y) any Developer-approved marketing and other expenses that have been paid for by Fig, or will be paid for by Fig in good faith (the “Fig Funds Withheld”). All such expenses described in clause (y) in the preceding sentence are subject to the prior written approval of Developer (email shall suffice).

 

1.2. Reserved.

 

1.3. Revenue Sharing. Developer shall pay to Fig the Fig Share in accordance with the terms below.

 

1.3.1. “Revenue” means all amounts derived from exploitation of the Licensed System received by, credited to or otherwise accruing to the benefit of Developer or any Affiliate of Developer (“Gross Revenue”), excluding only (a) (i) marketing development funds (“MDF”), (ii) digital download allowances and (iii) payment processor fees that are actually paid or credited by Developer to wholesale channel partners with respect to the Licensed System, provided that the total of such amounts is not more than three percent (3.0%) of Gross Revenue for the relevant period, and (b) chargebacks and refunds actually paid or credited back to buyers or channel partners. As used herein, “Affiliate” means an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the relevant party. For purposes of clarity, “Revenue” includes (i) all amounts derived from commercial exploitation of the Licensed System, including through in-app purchases, advertising and subscriptions and any amounts received or credited by Third-Party Publishers or Distributors; (ii) any advances or upfront license fees from Third-Party Publishers and Distributors as and when such advances are recouped by such Third-Party Publisher or Distributor, as applicable, but not at the time such advances or license fees are paid to Developer; and (iii) receipts received by or for Developer pursuant to any Fig Rewards Crowdfunding campaigns that are not spent in the development or publishing of the Licensed Game; minus Distributor commissions, sales taxes, VAT and other taxes applying to such sales, chargebacks, refunds, and payment processor fees.

 

For purposes of clarity, “Revenue” includes (i) any advances or upfront fees from Third Party Publishers and Distributors except when such advances are recouped by such Third Party Publisher or Distributor, as applicable, but not when such advances are paid to Developer; (ii) receipts received by the Developer pursuant to any rewards crowdfunding campaigns that are not spent in the development, distribution or publishing of the Licensed System; and (iii) receipts from sales of the Licensed System, including development or interim builds, on Fig.co or elsewhere after the effectiveness of this Agreement and after, and less bona fide, documented, and actual third party hard costs directly attributable to the development and distribution of the Licensed System, in the form of third party license fees, sales taxes, and the like. Revenue shall include or add back any amounts deducted by any Third-Party Publisher (as defined in the Terms and Conditions) prior to actual receipt by Developer unless otherwise agreed to by Fig; for purposes of clarity, the intent of this provision is to ensure that the Fig Share is not subordinated to a Third Party Publisher’s revenue share without Fig’s approval pursuant to Section 2.3.3(d).

 

1.3.2. The “Fig Share” is calculated by (x) the Revenue multiplied by (y) the Calculated Rate set forth as the Royalty terms on the cover page hereto.

 

1.3.3. Developer Royalty. Fig shall pay to Developer the Revenue minus the Fig Share (the “Developer Royalty”) for Revenue deriving from Fig.co. The Revenue received by Fig less the Developer Royalty will be applied toward the Fig Share for purposes of Section 1.3.2.

CONFIDENTIAL

 

1.3.4. Approved Marketing Expenses. Fig shall be reimbursed for any and all reasonable out of pocket expenses actually paid by Fig as part of a certification, quality assurance or other approval process required by a distributor (if applicable, and if so, pre-approved by Developer)), as well as Developer pre-approved marketing and localization expenses incurred by Fig (which amounts, if any, for the sake of clarity, will be reimbursed directly to Fig prior to calculating Revenue) (the “Marketing Expenses”); provided any single Marketing Expenses that exceeds $10,000 shall not be incurred by Fig without the prior consent of Developer.

 

1.3.5. STATEMENTS AND PAYMENTS. The Fig Share and the Developer Royalty shall be paid no later than forty-five (45) days after the end of the calendar month in which the Revenue are received and include a statement regarding the payment (including copies of payment statements from Distributors) and showing the details on the calculation of the Fig Share or the Developer Royalty.

 

1.4. TAXES. To the extent necessary to comply with the laws, rules and regulations of the United States, and any treaties between the United States and any countries outside the United States, the paying party shall be entitled to withhold foreign withholding taxes at the applicable rate set forth in such treaties. The paying party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the receiving party the original or a copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof in a form acceptable to the government of the foreign country or other relevant local tax authority, certifying the fact that such tax has been duly paid and account to the receiving party for its pro-rata share of such tax credit, if any. If for any reason the paying party does not withhold such taxes, then the receiving party agrees to pay such taxes within sixty (60) days from the date of notice from the paying party. If the receiving party does not pay such taxes and the relevant tax authority holds the paying party liable, then the receiving party agrees to indemnify the paying party for any such liability within sixty (60) days from the date of paying party’s notice thereof.

 

1.5. DEVELOPER RECORDS; AUDIT. Developer shall maintain books and records reasonably sufficient to permit verification of any payments of Fig Shares or the use of the Fig Funds toward development of the Licensed System. Fig shall be permitted to examine these books and records, such examination to occur during regular business hours, upon reasonable notice of not less than one week, and in a manner that is not disruptive to the examined Developer’s business. In the event any such inspection reveals that Developer has underpaid any payments of Fig Shares or spent any material part of the Fig Funds for purposes completely unrelated to the development, marketing or publishing of the Licensed System, then Developer will (i) in the case of underpaid payments of Fig Shares, immediately pay the underpaid amounts upon demand or (ii) in the case of misused Fig Funds, immediately return to Fig such amount that is verified to be misused, upon written demand from Fig; any such repayment of Fig Funds shall not affect the allocation of Fig Share resulting from the Fig Funds paid to Developer by Fig. Such payments will also include interest calculated from the date such payments were originally due at the rate of the lower of (i) One and One-Half Percent (1.5%) per month, or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by law.

2.1. NON-EXCLUSIVE LICENSE TO FIG.CO. Developer grants to Fig during the term of this Agreement a nonexclusive, worldwide, fully paid up, sub-licensable right and license to use, license, sublicense, sell, advertise, promote, publicly perform, distribute, transmit, display, and otherwise utilize the Licensed System exclusively for and in connection with publishing, distributing, selling, licensing, advertising, marketing and promoting the Licensed System on Fig.co, subject to and as may be limited by any licenses Developer has granted or will grant to any Third-Party Publisher.

 

2.1.1. LICENSED SYSTEM.

Developer grants to Fig during the term of this Agreement a nonexclusive, fully paid up, sublicensable, worldwide right and license to use, create Derivative Works of, display and otherwise utilize the Developer Brand Features and components of the Licensed System exclusively in connection with Fig’s exercise of its Fig.co Distribution License only (collectively with the license in Section 2.1, the “Distribution License”), subject to and as may be limited by any licenses Developer has granted or will grant to any Third-Party Publisher. For the avoidance of doubt, before any Derivative Work is produced it requires the prior written consent of the Developer with respect to its use, and it shall not be able to be monetized in its own right without written consent. No art assets will be distributed by Fig without prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, or unless agreed upon in a marketing plan or other agreed-upon usage.

(a) establish terms through good faith and arm’s- length dealings;

 

(b) establish customary rights to audit the books and records of and to receive accounting statements from the Third-Party Publisher (“Developer’s Audit Rights”).

(c) use commercially reasonable efforts to require that each Third-Party Publisher forward copies of all statements from Distributors to Developer, and Developer shall forward such copies to Fig, as soon as reasonably practicable; and
