Thank you for choosing to play a game offered by Daybreak Game Company LLC ("Daybreak," "we," and "us,"). Each of our games is offered pursuant to this Daybreak End User License Agreement ("Agreement"). Along with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy located on our family of websites including, without limitation, www.daybreakgames.com ("Sites," each a "Site"), this Agreement describes the terms and conditions by which Daybreak offers you: (i) the right to download, install and/or use the game software client and related documentation, game content and mobile applications offered by Daybreak (collectively, the "Software"); (ii) the right to use the Software in conjunction with your registered account on your chosen platform ("Account") (e.g. Daybreak Account, Sony Entertainment Network account, etc.) to access and play an online interactive entertainment game, including, without limitation, any and all Daybreak Game Assets (as defined in the Terms of Service), features, assets, or services associated therewith (collectively, the "Game"); and (iii) the right to make purchases in connection with any Game(s) using your Account.

4. LIMITATIONS ON LICENSE; RESPONSIBILITY OF END USER

The license granted to you in Section 2 is limited. Any use of the Software, any Game(s), or any portion thereof in violation of this Agreement is beyond the scope of the license granted to you and, therefore, infringes Daybreak's copyrights and other Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Software and/or Game(s). You shall not, without express advance written permission from Daybreak:

4.1 copy (except to make one necessary back-up copy), distribute, sell, auction, rent, lease, timeshare, loan, modify or create derivative works, adapt, translate, perform, display, sublicense or transfer all or any portion of the Software or any Game(s) on or through any medium;

4.2 reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or otherwise reduce the Software (or any portion thereof) or any Game(s) to a human-readable form or attempt to reconstruct or discover any source code, underlying ideas, algorithms, file formats or programming interfaces of the Software (or any portion thereof) by any means whatsoever, except to the extent that this restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law;

4.5 mine, decrypt, or modify any data transmitted between any client and server of any Game(s);

4.6 use, post, host or distribute cheats, hacks, mods, macros, "bots" or other programs which would allow unattended game play or which otherwise impact game play (including, without limitation, any program which enables or facilitates mining, character kills, or level increases) in connection with any Game(s);

4.7 incorporate the Software and/or any Game(s) or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, any Daybreak Game Assets(s), into any product or service;

4.8 take any action which imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure;

In the event that we detect an Unauthorized Third Party Program: (i) the Game(s) may communicate information back to Daybreak, including, without limitation, your Account username, details about the Unauthorized Third Party Program detected and the activities or functions performed thereby, and/or (ii) Daybreak may exercise any or all of its rights and remedies under this Agreement or the Terms of Service without prior notice to the user linked to such Unauthorized Third Party Program. You acknowledge that any and all character data and other data that is stored and is resident on our servers, and any and all communications that you make within any Game(s) (including, but not limited to, messages solely directed at another player or group of players) traverse through our servers, may or may not be monitored by us or our agents, and that you have no expectation of privacy in any such communications and you expressly consent to such monitoring of communications you send and receive.

6. USER SUBMISSIONS

In connection with the Games and its related services, you may be able to upload or transmit Submissions (as defined and described in the Terms of Service) to our servers in various forms. In such a case, the Submissions will at all times comply with the Game's forum rules and the Rules of Conduct set out in the Terms of Service.

7. FEES AND BILLING PROCEDURES

While you may register for and you may, in some cases, be able to use some features of the Game(s) free of charge, certain aspects of the Game(s), including, but not limited to, membership levels, virtual currency and other Daybreak Game Assets are provided for a fee or other charge ("Paid Content").

8. TERMINATION

8.1 Termination by Daybreak. We may terminate this Agreement (including, without limitation, your licenses to Games and/or your access to your Game account) and/or suspend your access to any Game(s) immediately and without notice if:

8.1.3 we are unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide to us;

8.3 Survival. Sections 3, 4, 6, 8.3, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. For the sake of clarity, Daybreak has the right to use your User Voxel Content pursuant to Section 3.2 even after this Agreement has been terminated.

9. INFORMATION PRIVACY AND COMMUNICATION

Our information collection and usage policies are fully described in our Privacy Policy. To the extent permitted by our Privacy Policy, you agree that we may communicate with you via telephone, e-mail, and any similar technology for any purpose relating to any Game(s), the Software and any services, products or software which may in the future be provided by us or on our behalf. We cannot ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be forced to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Since we do not control other web sites and/or privacy policies of third parties, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the personal information you disclose to others.

10. NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SOFTWARE AND GAMES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

DAYBREAK HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OBLIGATIONS TO FURNISH ANY MAINTENANCE AND/OR SUPPORT SERVICES WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE AND GAMES.

Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow limitations as to how long an implied warranty lasts and/or exclusions or limitations of consequential damages, so the above limitations and/or exclusions of liability may not apply to you.

11. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION

The validity, construction, interpretation and legal effect of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the judicial decisions and internal laws of the State of Delaware and the United States of America, without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the internal laws of the State of Delaware and the United States of America. Subject to the below provisions of Section 12, (a) you and Daybreak agree that any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any aspect of the relationship between you and Daybreak (each, a "Dispute") asserted by you against Daybreak or by Daybreak against you shall be exclusively brought in a state or federal court in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California, and (b) you and Daybreak each submit and consent to the personal jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state and federal courts located in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California.

12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER

12.1 Introduction. Any Dispute, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, shall be settled through Negotiation (as defined below in Section 12.2) or Arbitration (as defined below in Section 12.3); provided, however, with respect to Excluded Disputes (as defined below in Section 12.3) that you and Daybreak are unable to settle through Negotiation, you or Daybreak may apply to the applicable court in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California to bring any such Excluded Disputes in lieu of Arbitration.

If a Dispute arises, you and Daybreak first shall attempt in good faith to resolve it promptly by Negotiation as set forth below in Section 12.2, and neither you nor Daybreak may commence Arbitration with respect to any Dispute unless you and Daybreak first have unsuccessfully pursued Negotiation as provided below in Section 12.2 (i.e., the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute in writing within the below thirty (30) day period or if either party refuses to comply with the provisions of any written Negotiation settlement). All communications, whether oral, written or electronic, in any Negotiation or Arbitration (including, without limitation, any written Negotiation settlement or Arbitration award) pursuant to this Section 12 shall be treated as confidential, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the Arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application in accordance with the above provisions of Section 11, or except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law. Notwithstanding the above provisions set forth in Section 11, (i) the Federal Arbitration Act applies to and governs the enforceability of this Section 12, and (ii) all communications, whether oral, written or electronic, in Negotiations shall also be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the Federal Rules of Evidence.

12.2 Negotiation. At any time after a Dispute arises, either you or Daybreak may initiate negotiation by providing written notice (the "Dispute Notice") to the other party as follows ("Negotiation"): (a) you shall email Dispute Notices to Daybreak to disputenotice@daybreakgames.com and (b) Daybreak shall email Dispute Notices to you to the email address that Daybreak has on file for you. The Dispute Notice shall describe the nature and basis of the Dispute and sets forth the relief sought. You and a Daybreak representative shall speak by phone and/or communicate via email at a mutually acceptable time and thereafter as often as reasonable necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. No party shall be obligated to continue to participate in Negotiation if the parties have not resolved the Dispute in writing within thirty (30) days after the non-complaining party's receipt of the Dispute Notice.

12.3 Arbitration. If you and Daybreak are unable to resolve any Dispute through Negotiation or if either you or Daybreak refuses to comply with the provisions of any written Negotiation settlement, then, except for any Excluded Disputes (as hereinafter defined), SUCH DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR ("Arbitration") INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY AND YOU AND DAYBREAK AGREE THAT YOU AND DAYBREAK ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY. As used in this Agreement, "Excluded Dispute" collectively means: (a) any Dispute relating to the infringement, misappropriation and/or other misuse of intellectual property rights other than patent rights (including, without limitation, claims seeking injunctive relief); (b) any Dispute relating to the violation, misappropriation and/or other misuse of confidential information (including, without limitation, claims seeking injunctive relief); (c) any Dispute relating to the enforcement of an Arbitration award; and/or (d) any Dispute that qualifies for small claims court.

An Arbitration is a proceeding before a neutral arbitrator, instead of before a judge or jury. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court, and provides more limited discovery. It follows different rules than court proceedings, and is subject to very limited review by courts. The arbitrator will issue a written decision and provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party.

The Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as amended by this Daybreak Terms of Service. The Consumer Arbitration Rules are available online at www.adr.org . Additionally, the arbitrator shall follow applicable state and federal law.

If you seek $10,000 or less in any Arbitration initiated by you, Daybreak agrees to reimburse your filing fee and your share of the arbitration costs, including your share of arbitrator compensation, at the conclusion of the proceeding, unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous or costs are unreasonable as determined by the arbitrator. If you seek more than $10,000 in any Arbitration initiated by you, the Arbitration costs, including arbitrator compensation, will be split between you and Daybreak according to the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and the AAA's Supplementary Procedures.

YOU AND DAYBREAK AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND YOU AND DAYBREAK ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or Daybreak that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination shall be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision will follow the terms of this Agreement and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of this Agreement, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will preclude you or Daybreak from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you or against you for us, as applicable.
