SUN LION CLUB holders are granted the same commercial rights as Yuga Labs provided for CryptoPunks. The SUN LION CLUB license is here.
*This license agreement is modeled on the Yuga Labs license for CryptoPunks issued in 2022.
SUN LION CLUB TERMS
SUN LION CLUB is a collection of unique digital collectible characters represented by non-fungible tokens (such tokens, "SUN LION CLUB NFTS") minted by a sm contract deployed to the Ethereum blockchain (the "SUN LION CLUB (SUNLION) Sm Contract”). The SUN LION CLUB (SUNLION) Sm Contract associates each SUN LION CLUB NFT with a piece of digital displaying one of the SUN LION CLUB characters ("SUN LION CLUB ").
These terms ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement by and between SUN LION Labs ("SUN LION Labs ," "we" or "us"), and any owner of a SUN LION CLUB NFT ("you" or "Owner") governing the pies' rights and obligations with respect to SUN LION CLUB NFTS and SUN LION CLUB .
NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER:
BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND SUN LION LABS THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 10 (DISPUTE RESOLUTION) BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES, THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IN SECTION 10 WILL NOT APPLY TO YOU, BUT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 12 (GOVERNING LAW AND FORUM CHOICE) AND RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE LAW WILL STILL APPLY.
YOU ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS WIDE ARBITRATION.
1. Ownership.
(a) You Own Your SUN LION CLUB NFT. When you own a digital wallet that holds a SUN LION CLUB NFT, as recorded by the SUN LION CLUB (SUNLION) Sm Contract, you hold the exclusive right to hold, sell, transfer, and execute blockchain transactions involving that SUN LION CLUB NFT ("Your SUN LION CLUB NFT"). Except for the SUN LION CLUB NFTS we own, SUN LION Labs have no right or ability to seize, freeze, or otherwise modify the ownership of any SUN LION CLUB NFT.
(b) We Own (but License to You) the IP in Your SUN LION CLUB . SUN LION Labs own all rights, title, and interest in and to the SUN LION CLUB including any and all copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights therein ("IP"). However, we grant you the License (defined below) to use the SUN LION CLUB associated with Your SUN LION CLUB NFT ("Your SUN LION CLUB ") for as long as you hold Your SUN LION CLUB NFT.
(c) You Own the IP in Your Derivative SUN LION CLUB Works. As between you and SUN LION Labs , you own all rights, title and interest in and to any "derivative work," as defined by the United States Copyright Act, based upon Your SUN LION CLUB created during the License Term (defined below) ("Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work"); provided, however, that (i) we retain the copyright in the SUN LION CLUB underlying any Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work; (ii) your use of any Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work during and after the License Term is subject to these Terms; and (iii) your use of any Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work after the License Term may require a license from the current owner of the SUN LION CLUB NFT.
(d) Utility. Owners may be offered utility, benefits, or entitlements (collectively,"Utility") from time to time, but these Terms do not confer any Utility except as granted by the License. SUN LION Labs make no assurances of any Utility. Any Utility may be subject to other terms and conditions. SUN LION Labs will not be responsible in any manner for any utility offered by any third py.
2. License.
(a) Grant.
Subject to your acceptance of, and compliance with, these Terms, upon lawfully acquiring Your SUN LION CLUB NFT and, for so long as you hold Your SUN LION CLUB NFT (both dates as recorded by the SUN LION CLUB (SUNLION) Sm Contract) (the "License Term"), SUN LION Labs grant to you an exclusive, universe-wide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works based upon, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, and otherwise use and exploit, Your SUN LION CLUB ("License"). The License is intended to be broad, enabling you to make both commercial and non-commercial uses of Your SUN LION CLUB , in any and all media, whether existing now or invented later, subject only to the restrictions set forth below.
(b) Restrictions and Reservations.
i. The License extends only to Your SUN LION CLUB -meaning, the complete selection and arrangement of all base layers, features, attributes, and other elements that comprise Your SUN LION CLUB . Thus, while the License allows you to create and exploit Derivative SUN LION CLUB Works, the License does not grant you rights in any individual element of Your SUN LION CLUB , or a license to exploit any individual element separate and ap from Your SUN LION CLUB . For example, the License allows you to create three-dimensional renditions of, and to add new clothing to, Your SUN LION CLUB , but does not allow you to extract individual features (e.g., hair, accessories) for use in a separate work.
ii. The License does not grant you any rights in or to SUN LION Labs ' (or any other) trade names, brands, trade dress, or trademarks (e.g., "SUN LION CLUB"), all of which are expressly reserved to SUN LION Labs (collectively, "TM Rights"). You hereby agree that any TM Rights you purport to acquire, together with any associated goodwill, shall automatically, immediately, and at your expense be assigned to SUN LION Labs . For the sake of clarity, the TM Rights do not include Your SUN LION CLUB , in which you may acquire trademark rights through the exercise of your rights in accordance with, and subject to, these Terms and applicable law.
iii. Any application to register a trademark in Your SUN LION CLUB must occur during the License Term and be based solely upon the actual use of the SUN LION CLUB in commerce and solely for the goods or services in connection with which Your SUN LION CLUB has actually been used in commerce in the
applicable jurisdiction as of the date of the application. Thus, you may not seek to register a trademark in Your SUN LION CLUB on an "intent to use" basis or where you otherwise have not used Your SUN LION CLUB in commerce.iv. You may not use Your SUN LION CLUB in a manner that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on membership in a protected class, such as race, religion, gender, orientation, or disability.
v. You may not use Your SUN LION CLUB in a manner that violates applicable law.
vi. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by us.
(c) License Back to SUN LION Labs . You grant to SUN LION Labs an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, universe-wide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to publicly display and otherwise use Your SUN LION CLUB alongside other SUN LION CLUB for the purpose of promoting or exhibiting the entire SUN LION CLUB collection.
3. Enforcement.
(a) Copyright Notices. You may include the following copyright notice with Your SUN LION CLUB : "O 2023 SUN LION CLUB" (the "SUN LION CLUB Copyright Notice"). Subject to your compliance with these Terms, you may include a copyright notice identifying you, or such other person you designate, as the copyright owner of any Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work created during the License Term, provided that you also include the SUN LION CLUB Copyright Notice.
(b) Copyright Registrations. Any application to obtain a copyright registration in Your SUN LION CLUB shall identify "SUN LION Labs " as the copyright owner of the SUN LION CLUB . Any application to obtain a copyright registration in a Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work may identify you or such other person you designate as the copyright owner but shall identify Your SUN LION CLUB as a preexisting work upon which the Derivative SUN LION CLUB Work is based.
(c) Actions. To the extent applicable law authorizes you to bring a claim for infringement based upon the unauthorized use of Your SUN LION CLUB , you agree that: (i) any such claim shall be based solely upon the unauthorized use of Your SUN LION CLUB , not other SUN LION CLUB -for example, on the ground that the other SUN LION CLUB is substantially similar to Your SUN LION CLUB ; and (ii) SUN LION Labs may, in their sole discretion, join and, unless it would materially prejudice your rights, elect to take over the control of the prosecution of, any such action.
(d) Disputes Among Owners. SUN LION Labs have no obligation to support the resolution of, or resolve any, dispute that may arise between SUN LION CLUB NFT owners.
4. Transfers.
(a) No Decoupling. Except as expressly provided herein, ownership of a SUN LION CLUB NFT and the License are not separable in any way. You may not engage in any transaction or activity that purports to decouple the License from Your SUN LION CLUB NFT.
(b) Termination of License. Upon the transfer of Your SUN LION CLUB NFT to a new Owner, as recorded by the SUN LION CLUB (SUNLION) Sm Contract: (i) your License hereunder shall immediately and automatically terminate; (ii) you must discontinue any use of Your SUN LION CLUB as a trademark or other source identifier; and (iii) any trademark and corresponding registration obtained in connection with your exercise of the License shall be deemed abandoned unless duly transferred to the new Owner under a separately negotiated written agreement.
(c) Published SUN LION CLUB Works. If, during the License Term, you create and make available to the public a work using Your SUN LION CLUB (a "Published SUN LION CLUB Work"), you may, except as set forth in Section 4(b)(ii), continue to use and exploit that Published SUN LION CLUB Work in accordance with these Terms after the License Term; provided, however, that: (i) you will be responsible for any obligations or liabilities arising from your continued use of the Published SUN LION CLUB Work after the License Term; and (ii) this privilege does not allow you to use the SUN LION CLUB to create any new works or materials after the License Term. Thus, for example:
• A digital series featuring Your SUN LION CLUB that was released during the License Term may continue to run after the License Term, but any creation or distribution of any new episodes featuring the SUN LION CLUB would require a license from the new Owner.
• After the License Term, you may sell off existing (at the time of transfer) inventories of merchandise featuring Your SUN LION CLUB that were created and offered for sale during the License Term, but the creation or distribution of any new merchandise or inventory featuring the SUN LION CLUB would require a license from the new Owner.
5. Owner's Representations and Warranties. Owner represents and warrants that Owner:

(b) will only use and interact with any SUN LION CLUB NFT and SUN LION CLUB in accordance with these Terms;

(b) EACH SUN LIONLİVE NFT IS AN INTANGIBLE DIGITAL ASSET THAT EXISTS ONLY BY VIRTUE OF THE OWNERSHIP RECORD MAINTAINED ON THE ETHEREUM BLOCKCHAIN.

7. Assumption of Risk. Owner accepts and acknowledges all risks associated with the following:
(a) SUN LION CLUB NFTs and SUN LION CLUB may be used in myriad ways. While we strongly encourage transparency, communication, and research prior to acquiring a SUN LION CLUB NFT, including to understand what previous and existing uses have been made of the SUN LION CLUB NFT and SUN LION CLUB and how those uses may affect value, any purchase of a SUN LION CLUB NFT is at the purchaser's own risk. SUN LION Labs is not responsible for verifying or providing information on how a SUN LION CLUB NFT or its SUN LION CLUB have been exploited. Additional documentation from an Owner may be necessary or prudent.
(b) SUN LION Labs is not responsible for determining or paying any taxes that apply to any Owner's purchase, sale, or transfer of rights in each SUN LION CLUB NFT. As between the
pies, Owner is solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to such transactions.(c) Transactions involving SUN LION CLUB NFTs and SUN LION CLUB rely on third-py or decentralized platforms, systems, or marketplaces. We do not maintain, control, assume any obligations with respect to such platforms, systems, or marketplaces. To the extent that SUN LION Labs provides links or access to third py platforms, sites, or other resources, it does so only as a convenience and is not responsible for the content, products, or services on or available from those third pies or through any content displayed thereon.
8. Indemnity.
Owner shall defend, indemnify, and hold SUN LION Labs , its licensors, affiliates, representatives, and service providers, and each of them, and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the "Indemnified Pies") harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs, investigations, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, settlements, interest, expenses, and other similar results or occurrences (including attorneys' fees) that directly or indirectly arise from, or are related to or in connection with, any claim, suit, action, demand, or proceeding or other similar occurrence, process, or activity that is initiated, made, brought, or financed by a third py (including any person who accesses or transacts using any SUN LION CLUB NFT or SUN LION CLUB , whether or not such person personally purchased a SUN LION CLUB NFT) against the Indemnified Pies, or on account of the investigation, defense, or settlement thereof, arising out of, related to, or in connection with: (a) your access to or use of any NFT marketplace or third-py services or products; (b) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms; (c) your exercise or attempted exercise of the License; or (d) your actual or alleged violation of applicable law. Counsel to be used in the defense of such claim must be approved by SUN LION Labs in writing prior to retention of such counsel and, upon our request, you will allow us to picipate in the defense of any such claims. You will not enter into any settlement or compromise of any claim or litigation or that includes an admission of liability without our prior written consent.
9. Limitation of Liability.
(a) TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NO INDEMNIFIED PY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST SAVINGS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE, OR SYSTEM FAILURE, OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE OR INTERACT WITH ANY SUN LIONLİVE NFT OR SUN LIONLİVE , WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT SUN LION LABS OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY INDEMNIFIED PY'S CUMULATIVE LIABILITY HEREUNDER FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY EXCEED $100.
(b) BY PURCHASING OR OWNING A SUN LIONLİVE NFT, OWNER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN SUN LION LABS AND OWNER.
10. Dispute Resolution.
(a) Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, or the use of the SUN LION CLUB NFT or SUN LION CLUB (“Dispute") must be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. Each py waives the right to a trial in court and/or by a jury. This arbitration provision shall survive any termination of the License or these Terms.
(b) Exceptions. As a limited exception to Section 10(a) above: (i) the pies may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) each py retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of its intellectual property rights.
(c) Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A py who wishes to st arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other py as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where one lives, with provision to be made for remote appearances to the maximum extent permitted by the AAA rules, unless the pies both agree to a different location. The pies agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of these Terms.
(d) Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and SUN LION Labs won't seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees for which SUN LION Labs is responsible unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute is frivolous. If SUN LION Labs prevails in arbitration, SUN LION Labs will pay all of its attorneys' fees and costs and won't seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
(e) Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 10(d) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either py and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual py seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that py's individual claim. To the extent that you or SUN LION Labs prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be ligated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The pies agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
(f) Class Action Waiver. YOU AND SUN LION LABS AGREE THAT EACH PY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if a Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person's claims with a py's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
(g) Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 10(f) (Class Action Waiver), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any p of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other ps of these Terms will still apply.
11. Amendments.
SUN LION Labs reserves the right to clarify or amend these Terms by publicly publishing a new version of them, including, but not limited to, on https://SUN LION CLUB.io, or any successor website.
12. Governing Law and Forum Choice.
These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 10 (Dispute Resolution), the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined above) will be the state and federal courts located in the State and City of New York, and you and SUN LION Labs each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
13. Miscellaneous.
(a) The License applies only to the SUN LION CLUB NFT on the blockchain that SUN LION Labs , in its sole discretion, may designate, which designation shall apply retroactively. Thus, for example, if a fork or other event purports to result in duplicate SUN LION CLUB NFTs, only the non-fungible token recorded on the blockchain designated by SUN LION Labs will be eligible to receive the benefit of the License. Any license purportedly granted hereunder to the owner of a non-fungible token recorded on a blockchain not designated by SUN LION Labs is void ab initio.
(b) These Terms will transfer and be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the pies and their permitted successors and assigns.
(c) These Terms constitute the entire agreement, and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous representations, understandings and agreements, between the pies with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, all of which are hereby merged into these Terms. Without limitation, the terms of any other document, publication, course of dealing, or course of trade will not modify these Terms, except as expressly provided in Sections 11 or 13(a) or as the pies may agree in writing.
(d) Failure to promptly enforce a provision of these Terms or any rights related to the SUN LION CLUB NFT or SUN LION CLUB will not be construed as a waiver of such provision or rights.
(e) Nothing contained in these Terms will be deemed to create, or be construed as creating, a joint venture or pnership between the pies. Neither py is, by virtue of these Terms or otherwise, authorized as an agent or legal representative of the other py. Neither py is granted any right or authority to assume or to create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf or in the name of the other py. Nothing contained in these Terms will be deemed to create any third-py beneficiary right upon any third py whatsoever.
(f) The pies shall execute and deliver to the other py any and all such other instruments in reasonable mutually acceptable form and substance and shall take any and all such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry the intent of these Terms into full force and effect.
(g) If any one or more of the provisions of these Terms should be ruled wholly or ply invalid or unenforceable, then the provisions held invalid or unenforceable will be deemed amended, and the arbitrator, court, or other government body is authorized to reform the provision(s) to the minimum extent necessary to render them valid and enforceable in conformity with the pies' intent as manifested herein.
(h) The headings to sections of these Terms are for convenience or reference only and do not form a p of these Terms and will not in any way affect its interpretation.
(i) Neither py will be afforded or denied preference in the construction of these Terms, whether by virtue of being the drafter or otherwise.
(j) For purposes of these Terms, the words and phrases "include," "includes," "including," and "such as" are deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation".
(k) Owner may give notice to SUN LION Labs by contacting SUN LION Labs at hifolabs@gmail.com. Notice is effective upon receipt.
(I) The pies have agreed to contract electronically and, accordingly, electronic signatures or any other forms of acceptance permitted by law, will be given the same effect and weight as original signatures.
