specified under the DMCA and as set forth below, to our designated agent for notice of copyright
infringement (“Designated Agent”).

If You are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of a copyright owner, and You

This Policy follows the procedures provided in the DMCA, which prescribes a notice and takedown
procedure, subject to the registered user’s right to submit a counter-notification claiming
lawful use of any disabled Content. In the event any of the provisions in our policy conflict with
any applicable requirements under the DMCA then the requirements under the DMCA shall supersede
and control and the hereby incorporated into this policy by reference. If we are notified
of any claimed copyright infringement, or otherwise become aware of facts and circumstances
from which infringement is apparent, we will respond expeditiously by removing the Content or
disabling access to the Content that is the subject of the alleged infringing activity.

Infringement Notice Content: If You believe that any Content appearing on this Website constitutes
copyright infringement, you must submit the following information to us in writing consistent
with the DMCA: 1) an electronic or physical signature of any person authorized to act on
behalf of the owner of the protected interest; 2) a brief description of the copyrighted work that
You claim has or is being infringed upon; 3) a description of the location on the Website where
any allegedly infringing Content may appear, including the URLs of web pages and/or hyperlinks;
4) Your address, telephone number, and email address; 5) a statement by You stating that
You have a good faith belief that the infringing use is unauthorized; 6) a statement by You, under
penalty of perjury, that the information contained in any notice to us pursuant to this Policy is
accurate and that affirms that You are the copyright owner, or that You are authorized to act on
behalf of the copyright owner(s).

Disputing Claims of Infringement: You may protest any alleged claim of infringement pursuant
to any DMCA by submitting a counter-notification as described below. Anyone who has
posted Content that allegedly infringes a copyright may send our Designated Agent a counter
notice pursuant to Sections 512(g)(2) and 512(g)(3) of the DMCA. When our Designated Agent
receives your counter notice, the Designated Agent may, in its/his/her sole discretion, reinstate
the alleged infringing materials not less than 10 nor more than 14 calendar days after it receives
the counter-notification, unless our Designated Agent receives notice from the claimant that they
have filed a legal action to restrain the allegedly infringing activity. In some cases, where the infringement
is done knowingly, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate the user
account of any user who has submitted/posted infringing Content. This decision will be based
upon the facts and circumstances surrounding each instance of infringement. We will comply
with the appropriate provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter-notification is received by
our Designated Agent.

In order to send a proper Counter-Notification, You must send a written notification to our Designated
Agent including the following information:

i. Identification of any Content that has been removed or to which access has been
disabled on our Website and the location which the Content appeared before it was
removed or access to it was disabled;
ii. State, under penalty of perjury, that You have a good faith belief that the Content was
removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be
removed or disabled;
iii. Provide Your name, address, telephone number and, if available, email address;
iv. State that You consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial
district in which your address is located or, if your address is outside of the United
States, for any judicial district in which You may be found, and You will accept service
of process from the complaining party who notified us of the alleged infringement or
an agent of such person.

False or Misleading Notices: We shall determine the sole manner in which we decide to treat
any non-compliant notices in whatever manner appears to be reasonable given the facts and
circumstances presented. Any claimant or user who submits a DMCA Notice, Counter-Notification
or any other notice which contains any false or materially misleading information will automatically
forfeit any rights under this Policy and such notice shall be considered null and void
by us.

reinstate any allegedly infringing Content and/or reinstate access to your account on this Website
within a reasonable amount of time in the event we determine that reinstatement of the
