and you waive any longer statute of limitations that may be permitted by law.
 
(e.) The Gross Receipts in your OG Publishing/Distribution account may be held by
Company in an interest bearing account. Company may, in its sole discretion, retain all
interest earned on the Gross Receipts or pay to you all or a portion of such interest.
 
(f.) In the event that Company has, in its good faith discretion, reason to suspect that any
Composition submitted by you to Company is not in compliance with the terms of section 4
below, or if Company is presented with a claim of infringement of copyright, trademark, right
or publicity or other intellectual property right, or failure to comply with any third party
license requirement or any other claim which, if true, would constitute your breach of, or
non-compliance with, any of your representations, warranties and agreements hereunder,
you agree that Company may discontinue the posting of your share of Gross Receipts with
respect to such Composition to your OG Publishing/Distribution account and block your
ability to otherwise withdraw funds therefrom until satisfactory resolution of the matter is
obtained. Furthermore, you agree that you will forfeit such revenues if Company determines
that they are the result of infringement or fraud.
 
(g.) If Company, in its reasonable discretion, determines that any infringing or fraudulent
activities may have been caused by your or your affiliates acts or omissions, any costs

incurred by Company (including legal fees and expenses) in connection therewith may, in
addition to other remedies, be deducted by Company from any monies otherwise payable to
you by Company. Furthermore, if in Company’s reasonable business judgment it elects to
engage an attorney to review and/or respond to a claim of fraud and/or infringement with
respect to a Composition(s), Company shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to deduct
from your OG Publishing/Distribution account or charge your Payment Method (defined in
section 5(b) below) a minimum of Three Hundred Dollars ($300) to offset the costs of
associated legal fees and expenses.

obligated to pay a portion of the income from the Compositions shall look solely to you for
any such payments and you hereby agree to indemnify Company and hold Company
harmless from and against any and all claims, demands or actions by any such songwriters,

card or debit card, each a “Payment Method”). For the avoidance of doubt, if you or
Company terminates this agreement for any of the reasons set forth herein, you will not be

entitled to a full or partial reimbursement of the Processing Fee. Furthermore, if for any
reason you fail to make a payment or a payment is reversed hereunder via the Payment

($25.00) administrative fee), by any means necessary, including the right to keep your
account active and collect any resulting royalties until the Processing Fee is fully recouped.
It is your responsibility to notify Company if your Payment Method has changed by making
the appropriate changes to your OG Publishing/Distribution account settings. If you do not
provide a valid Payment Method, your service may be disconnected or interrupted at
Company’s sole discretion.

collection and administration rights for an extended retention period with respect to the
applicable Composition in perpetuity.

direct or indirect result of any such failure by you.
