SELLER’S WARRANTY The Beat is a copyrighted composition and master recording created by the Seller, who warrants that it contains only sounds created by the Seller or properly licensed to the Seller, and contains no samples that require third-party copyright clearance or licensing.

BEAT RIGHTS GRANTED TO BUYER The Seller grants to the Buyer limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable rights to use the Beat in the production of one new musical composition and master recording (“New Song.”) The Buyer shall create the New Song by combining the Beat with substantial new elements including lyrics, instrumental tracks, vocals, samples, or other sounds owned by or properly licensed to the Buyer.

BEAT RIGHTS RETAINED BY SELLER The Seller retains full copyright ownership of the Beat. The Buyer may not loan, rent, share, upload, or resell the Beat. Buyer may not re-assign rights to the Beat, in whole or in part, to any party. Following the execution of this Agreement, the Seller may continue to transfer or license any and all rights to the Beat to any other parties for any purpose, exclusively or non-exclusively. Previous licensees of the Beat will retain their license rights in full as per Seller’s agreement with them.

PERMITTED USES OF THE NEW SONG Buyer has the right to perform, record, reproduce, distribute, stream, and sell the New Song worldwide, royalty free. These rights are subject only to the limits described below.
• Distribution: Buyer may distribute a maximum of 2,000 units of the New Song combining hard copies, digital copies, and digital downloads, including all units provided free and for non-profit use.
• Streaming: Buyer is authorized 300,000 cumulative streams of the New Song on Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music, and similar distribution services.

Should the Buyer continue to distribute or stream the New Song after termination of the Buyer’s rights to do so under this Agreement, the Buyer expressly agrees that 100% of all copyright interests in the New Song composition and master recording are thereby irrevocably transferred from the Buyer to the Seller at the moment the distribution or streaming limits have been exceeded. The Buyer may, at the sole discretion of the Seller and only if the Beat has not already been exclusively licensed to another party, extend the distribution and streaming limits of the New Song by executing a new agreement with the Seller.
