1. Grant of License.

 

 

(C)  Licensee shall not grant sub-licenses to the Works without the prior written approval of Licensor, providing, however, that Licensee may provide limited sub-license rights in and to the Works to parties licensed by a relevant governmental authority to produce or manufacture marijuana oils or marijuana infused products, provided that such sub-license is limited to the production, sale and marketing of the Licensee’s marijuana products, and subject to strict quality control oversight and final approval by the Licensee and such sub-licensee shall be deemed fully bound to all terms, requirements, and conditions of this agreement.  Licensee will provide written notice of such sub-license to the Licensor.  Any pre-approved sub-licensees shall be set forth in the attached Schedule A and such sub-licensees shall be deemed fully bound to all terms, requirements, and conditions of this agreement.

(D)  Licensee hereby accepts such license and agrees that Licensee shall not use the Works except in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(E)  Packaging shall be designed by Licensee and subject to the express written permission and approval in all aspects of Licensor. Licensor shall have full access to any packager, including the unrestricted right to sales and pricing data in order to monitor quality and royalty volume. Upon the launch of Licensor’s national packaging program the Parties will negotiate a possible transition to Licensor’s packaging manufacturer and in any event renewal of this agreement will be contingent in participation in Licensors national packaging program.

 

2. Ownership of Works.

Licensee acknowledges that as between Licensee and Licensor, Licensor is the sole and exclusive owner of the Works and of all associated federal registrations and any pending or future registrations, and Licensee shall do nothing inconsistent with such ownership. Licensee further agrees that it will not claim ownership rights to the Works, or any derivative, compilation, sequel or series, or related Works owned by or used by Licensor.  Licensee agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall give Licensee any right, title, or interest in the Works other than the right to use the same in accordance with this Agreement.

3. Term and Termination.

(A)  This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue in full force and effect for the period set forth in Schedule A, and shall be renewable at the Parties’ mutual agreement as set forth in Schedule A.

(B)  In the event that Licensee fails to maintain its good corporate standing Licensor, at its sole discretion, but subject to Licensee’s ability to cure, may immediately terminate this Agreement upon forty-five (45) days’ written notice.

(D)  In the event that Licensee fails to perform any material provision of this Agreement and fails to cure any such failure upon thirty (30) days’ written notice from Licensor, Licensor, at its sole discretion may immediately terminate this Agreement.

(E)  In the event that Licensor: (i) fails to perform any material provision of this Agreement and fails to cure any such failure upon thirty (30) days’ written notice from Licensee; (ii) loses its rights to the Works; or (iii) suffers a bankruptcy event or ceases to do business in the ordinary course, Licensee, at its sole discretion, may immediately terminate this Agreement.

 

(F)  Upon termination or expiration of the license granted under this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise, all rights (including the right to use the Works) privileges and obligations arising from this Agreement shall cease to exist, except for Licensee’s obligation to pay royalties to Licensor pursuant to the terms herein, and Licensor’s obligation to fully indemnify Licensee relative to its uses of the Works as set forth herein.

 

 

(G)  Upon termination of this Agreement, Licensor agrees to allow Licensee three (3) months to cease all use of the Works, including a reasonable time to change labels, packaging and advertising, and to deplete existing inventories of Products bearing the Works. Licensee agrees to discontinue use of the Works, upon termination of this Agreement, as quickly as practicable, and in no event longer than the time specified herein.

4. License Fees.

(A)  Throughout the term of this Agreement, and for any renewals or extensions of this Agreement, Licensee agrees to pay exclusivity fee, advance against royalties, and royalty for use of the Works.

Licensee shall pay an annual exclusivity fee if applicable and or advance against royalties for each territory or product as designated on Schedule A. Said exclusivity fee and advance of royalties will be as set forth in the attached Schedule A.

(B)  Licensee shall pay to Licensor a royalty of gross receipts received by Licensee from sales of Products bearing the Works. Royalties are to be paid within thirty (30) days of each quarter ending in the months of March, June, September and December, after deduction of any advance royalty paid. The royalties shall be as set forth in the attached Schedule A.

(C)  Licensee acknowledges that it is Licensor’s intent that some portion of proceeds to Licensor under this Agreement shall be held in benefit in the name of and for  bloodline relatives of ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and his brother ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Family; however, the Parties expressly agree that Licensee shall have no obligation to make any payments of any kind to, nor have any other obligations of any kind with respect to such donation.

 

(D)  Failure of Licensee to make any payment required under this Agreement when such payment is not in dispute and is due and payable, shall be considered a breach of this agreement and be cause to terminate this Agreement; however, License shall have ten days to cure the breach upon receipt of written notice from Licensor.  If Licensee fails to cure any such breach during this period, then Licensor will provide written notice to Licensee of termination of this Agreement for failure to make a required payment.

(E) Licensee shall provide to Licensor quarterly activity reports, as well as summary quarterly activity reports.  Such activity reports shall accompany such royalty payments as described herein in this Section 4.  Moreover, Licensor reserves the right to examine and inspect only those books and records of account of Licensee directly related to the Works, during the normal business hours of Licensee upon written notice given by Licensor to Licensee of not less than fifteen (15) calendar days. Failure by Licensee to provide such activity reports or access to books and records of account to Licensor within fifteen (15) days of receipt of written notice is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement.

 

5. Use of Works.

(B)  Upon execution of this Agreement, Licensee shall advise Licensor prior to making any change or modification to the Works, and Licensee shall provide Licensor, upon Licensor’s written request, with representative samples of Licensee’s use of the Works, including copies or examples of how the Works are used on Licensee’s Internet site.  If, at any time, any use of the Works fails to conform to industry standards set by Licensor and communicated by Licensor to Licensee, Licensor may provide to Licensee written notice of said failure. Licensee shall undertake reasonable corrective action to cure said failure within thirty (30) days from the date of such notice, or such longer period as may be reasonably necessary to cure said failure, so long as Licensee is diligently pursuing the cure.  In the event that said failure is not cured within the period described in the preceding sentence, Licensor may then terminate this Agreement immediately. If Licensor fails to approve any modifications or changes to the Works within ten (10) days of Licensee advising Licensor of the proposed changes, Licensor’s approval shall be deemed to have been granted.

(C)  Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall be entitled to sell, distribute, or otherwise dispose of any existing inventory of the Works, but shall otherwise discontinue immediately all use of the Works, cooperate with Licensor in applying to the appropriate authorities to cancel recordation, if any, of this Agreement from all government records, and all rights in the Works and the goodwill appurtenant thereto shall revert to and remain the property of Licensor.
