Jones SODA PLAIN ENGLISH ONLINE MUSIC SUBMISSION AGREEMENT

THIS MUSIC LICENSE AGREEMENT is entered into by and between Jones Soda Co., 234 9th Avenue North, Seattle, Washington 98109("Jones"), and you. We here at Jones strive to be clear. Our lawyers wrote this Agreement, because that's what they do. But we told them to keep the hereinafters and wherefores to themselves. So here goes. As you read this, the most important thing to remember is that YOU CAN TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME. In other words, if you want out, you're out -- completely. Upon termination, we will retain no rights to your content. No kidding. Just send us an email and give us a few days to remove your uploaded materials. The idea here is to promote your career, not restrict it. If you do not agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, please do not use or access our Services.

Definitions.

A. The reference to "you" in this Agreement shall mean you, and if you are in a group, then it means each member of the group or the group as a whole. The same goes for "your" and "yours."

B. Jones means Jones Soda Co., and its successors, assigns, agents, distributors, dealers, and licensees.

C. Jones' Web site means the Web site or Web sites owned by Jones, or maintained on Jones' behalf, through which digital music content is available.

D. "Artist Content" means (i) sound recordings of your vocal and/or instrumental performances, (ii) the musical works (i.e., songs, lyrics) embodied in those recordings and works, and (iii) your name(s), trademarks, tradenames, likenesses, photographs, biographical materials, artwork, liner notes, and other graphical or textual material that you upload to Jones' Web site.

E. "Digital Phonorecord Delivery" is a strange term, but it is used in the U.S. Copyright law, and in this Agreement, to mean each individual delivery of a phonorecord by digital transmission of a sound recording which results in a specifically identifiable reproduction by or for any transmission recipient of a phonorecord of that sound recording by any means now known or hereafter devised. This is just the complete legal way of describing a digital download of a recording in the form of, for example, an MP3 file.

F. "Digital Streaming Transmission" is a digital transmission of a sound recording where a copy of the recording is not made by or for the transmission recipient, as, for example, a webcast.
