In that instance, ClearStream Media will continue to have sole control of the action as described above, will continue to pay all fees and costs incurred in that action, and you agree to cooperate with ClearStream Media with respect to such action.

It is understood and agreed that any C-Suite officer (CEO, COO, CTO, CFO) of ClearStream Media may execute documents pursuant to, and exercise for ClearStream Media, any power of attorney you have granted to ClearStream Media herein.

Recovery Through Copyright Enforcement

You, or if you are entering into this Agreement under authority of a third party rightsholder, that third party, shall not issue any demand, or commence any claim or proceedings to enforce any rights in any Content submitted to ClearStream Media under Agency Option "A" or Agency Option "B", except with ClearStream Media's express authorization which may be denied in the event that ClearStream Media elects to assume carriage and control of such enforcement measures, and in such event ClearStream Media shall indemnify and hold you (or the applicable third party rightsholder) harmless from and against any damages, legal fees and costs, directly attributable to such enforcement measures. If, however, ClearStream Media authorizes you to take enforcement action, then you will be solely responsible for all fees, costs, damages or other expenses in that action.

Recovery by ClearStream Media as Agent

In the event that any claim or demand is made by ClearStream Media or if legal proceedings are commenced by ClearStream Media on your behalf and in your name as your Agent (as opposed to ClearStream Media being the copyright owner pursuant to the Assignment Option as set out below) and such claim, demand, or proceeding results in a payment from a third party to ClearStream Media, ClearStream Media shall be entitled to deduct from such proceeds: a) all associated legal fees and expenses incurred or payable by ClearStream Media; and b) if the payment amount exceeds the subsection (a) amount by at least USD $1,000.00, a management and enforcement fee equal to the remainder of the proceeds less the sum of USD $1,000.00, meaning that the maximum that you can receive in such event is USD $1,000.00.

CLEARSTREAM MEDIA'S OPTION TO ACQUIRE CONTENT COPYRIGHT VIA ASSIGNMENT UNDER OPTION "A" or OPTION "B"

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the case where you have chosen either Option "A" or Option "B" only, if ClearStream Media determines that it requires your copyright to be assigned to ClearStream Media along with all related claims and causes of action (collectively, "Copyrights"), so as to enable ClearStream Media to have standing to enforce the Copyrights against a third party, then ClearStream Media shall have the option at any time, in consideration of the Copyright Assignment Fee (as defined below) to cause and consummate such assignment of Copyrights to ClearStream Media, and this Agreement shall be your written instrument effecting same (the "Assignment Option"). Alternatively, if you are entering into this Agreement under authority of a third party rightsholder as may be permitted herein, you represent and warrant that you have authority herein to agree to same on behalf of such third-party rights holder.

If you have chosen either Option "A" or Option "B" only, you hereby appoint ClearStream Media as your Attorney in Fact as to any such Assignment, and grant to ClearStream Media the actual authority, right and permission, as your Attorney in Fact, the execute a separate Assignment document in the following form:

("Assignee"). Assignor represents and warrants that a copyright exists in the Content, that Assignor owns all right, title and interest in and to that copyright, that the copyright has not been previously assigned or licensed, that Assignor has the right to assign the copyright in the Content to Assignee, that there is no dispute or potential dispute of which Assignor is aware regarding the copyright in the Content or Assignor's ownership thereof and right to assign to Assignor; and that Assignee may hereafter register the copyright in Assignee's name. This Assignment includes assigning to Assignee the sole right to seek, recover and retain any and all damages (and related forms of recovery and relief) for past, present and future infringement of the assigned copyright, without notice or accounting to Assignor.

Title: ClearStream Media ___________________

Attorney in Fact for [your name].

In the case where you have chosen either Option "A" or Option "B", and if ClearStream Media so requests, you shall cooperate in executing any additional instruments or assignments of Copyrights (and related claims) reasonably required to give effect to the assignment, transfer and enforcement of the Copyrights in the Content (or if you are entering into this Agreement under authority of a third party rights holder, you agree to procure the cooperation of such third party). In the case where you have chosen either Option "A" or Option "B", you hereby appoint ClearStream Media as your (or if you are entering into this Agreement under authority of a third party rights holder, that third party's) attorney in fact for executing on your or their behalf any instrument or assignment reasonably required to give effect to this provision and to effect the assignment and transfer of Copyrights.

The Copyright Assignment Fee payable by ClearStream Media to you shall be the combination of:

the maximum publicly available licensing fee for your Content as displayed in the ClearStream Media catalogue, to a maximum of USD $500; and
an additional USD $500.00 in consideration of the assignment.

Upon assignment of Copyright in accordance with these provisions, all right, title, interest, and goodwill, together with the right to pursue and collect damages for all past, present, and future claims and causes of action in relation to enforcing intellectual property rights in and to the Content, including but not limited to ClearStream Media's exclusive right to seek, recover and retain all past, present and future damages, attorneys' fees, enhanced or punitive damages, license fees, and/or royalties related to the Content, shall be transferred to ClearStream Media.

COLLECTION OF EARNINGS

As Agent, ClearStream Media is authorized to collect any applicable earnings ("Earnings") derived from the publication, licensing, display and/or other use (collectively, the "Use") of your Content on your behalf pursuant to this Agreement. The Earnings payable to you after deducting applicable amounts are referred to herein and defined as the "Creator Earnings".

Creator Earnings are calculated by applying the applicable Agency Fee (see table below) to the Earnings and then deducting any applicable third-party processing fees, administrative fees, and/or any amounts that may be due to a ClearStream Media publisher/syndication partner, hosting costs, taxes, defensive litigation costs, exchanges rates, and/or any other direct costs (collectively "Other Fees and Costs"). Notwithstanding, ClearStream Media reserves the right to apply the Agency Fee and/or abstain from deducting Other Fees and Costs in a manner that it determines is appropriate in its sole discretion, but in any case not in a manner that reduces the amount of Creator Earnings payable to you as currently set forth herein.

Agency Fees:

Revenue Stream	Rumble Agency Fee
Programmatic Advertisement	Forty percent (40%)
Sponsorship (incl. Host-Read) Advertisement	Forty percent (40%)
Licensing	Forty percent (40%)
Tipping/Donation	Twenty percent (20%)
Pay-Per-View	Twenty percent (20%)

As used herein:

Programmatic Advertisement revenue stream means advertising revenues generated from users watching video Content on the Platform.

Sponsorship (including Host-Read) Advertisement revenue stream means advertising revenue generated from a Content creator performing an advertisement placement within their Content.

Licensing revenue stream means revenue generated when exclusivity has been authorized to ClearStream Media to license Content to other platforms.

Tipping/Donation revenue stream means revenue generated from users contributing a fixed dollar amount in return for their message being promoted by a creator during the creator’s Content stream.

Pay-Per-View revenue stream means revenue generated by Content creators making available pay-per-view video Content for viewing by their audience for a limited time or on a one-time basis.

You understand that, from time to time, ClearStream Media may change and/or add additional revenue streams and change and/or add additional Agency Fees. In the event of any such changes, this Agreement will be updated accordingly, and the most recent version of this Agreement will apply to ClearStream Media’s Use of your Content and the collection and payment of any Earnings hereunder.

All payments to you of Creator Earnings will normally be remitted to your ClearStream Media account thirty (30) days after the month in which ClearStream Media receives payment on your behalf from third parties for the Use of your Content.

If an upfront payment amount is provided for under this Agreement, the entire amount indicated will be issued to your ClearStream Media account. Your future Creator Earnings, will be applied against this upfront payment until the upfront payment amount is fully utilized.

The first month for which payment is to be made shall: (a) begin on the first day of the month following the month of execution of this Agreement; and (b) include the portion of the month of execution following the Effective Date (unless this Agreement was executed on the first day of a month, in which case the month shall be deemed to begin on the first day of such month).

Under certain circumstances, third parties may make payments to ClearStream Media that do not associate Earnings with the Use of specific Content. In this event, ClearStream Media will make commercially reasonable efforts to identify the Creator Earnings due to you for the Use of your Content. If, after 24 months from the date of payment by a third party, ClearStream Media has not been able to identify Earnings to the Use of specific Content, ClearStream Media reserves the right to retain all such payments.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Creator Earnings are payable in relation to ClearStream Media Premium Subscriptions, as defined below.

EARNING PAYMENT REDUCTIONS / SET-OFFS

Payments may be subject to reduction to offset bad debts, refunds and other charge-backs relating to Use of your Content within sixty (60) days of the payment to which the bad debt, chargeback or refund relates.

For the purposes of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act or similar legislation or regulations, all Content is considered user-generated content and ClearStream Media's capacity as Agent is not Content owned by ClearStream Media (unless expressly assigned to ClearStream Media under the terms of this Agreement) or uploaded by ClearStream Media.
