Simclusive Scenario Submission Agreement

This Simclusive Scenario Submission Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into by and between you and HealthCourse, Inc with offices at 545 West 45th Street, New York, NY 10036 ("HealthCourse") and shall govern your access to and use of HealthCourse's owned and controlled 'Simclusive' branded platform (the "Simclusive Platform"), including any scenarios, simulations, or related content you provide to or in connection with the Simclusive Platform (each, a "Scenario"), including, without limitation, any visual and/or audiovisual depictions of your name, image, likeness and/or biographical information embodied in such Scenarios, or that you otherwise provide or make available to us (including via email) (collectively with Scenarios, the "Scenario Submission Materials").

By clicking 'I agree' or otherwise submitting your Scenario Submission Materials to the Simclusive Platform, you unconditionally consent to and agree to the terms of this Agreement.

  1. Proprietary Rights

    The following terms and conditions apply to you if you use the SP Service as a Standardized Patient:

    1. License Grant. You retain ownership of any and all intellectual property rights in and to the Scenario Submission Materials. By providing Scenario Submission Materials to or in connection with the Simclusive Platform, you hereby grant to us, our affiliates and subsidiaries during the applicable Exclusivity Period (as defined below) an exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide, sublicensable, and transferable right and license (but not the obligation) to reproduce, publish, display, perform, distribute, edit, modify, create derivative works from, translate, reformat, monetize, and otherwise use and exploit the Scenario Submission Materials, or any portion thereof, on or in connection with the Simclusive Platform and HealthCourse's business, including for the purpose of promoting and redistributing part or all of the Simclusive Platform to HealthCourse's customers and end-users in any format, and you hereby irrevocably waive any and all so-called moral rights with respect to the Scenario Submission Materials that you may have under any applicable law. You also grant each other user of the Simclusive Platform a worldwide license to access your Scenario Submission Materials through the Simclusive Platform, and use such Scenario Submission Materials as enabled by one or more features of the Simclusive Platform. The rights and licenses granted or waived pursuant to this Section 1 are collectively referred to as the "Submission License".
    2. Expiration of the Exclusivity Period. Following the expiration of the Exclusivity Period with respect to a Scenario, the rights granted to HealthCourse, its affiliates, and subsidiaries pursuant to the Submission License shall become non-exclusive solely with respect to such Scenario but otherwise shall continue in full force and effect subject to your rights of termination or removal pursuant to Section 4.
    3. Reservation of Rights. All rights not otherwise expressly granted herein are reserved by HealthCourse and you, as applicable.
  2. Exclusivity Period Commencing on the date you provide a Scenario to the Simclusive Platform and continuing thereafter for a period of 48 months following the date each such Scenario is initially published on the Simclusive Platform (each such 48 month period, an "Exclusivity Period") you shall not, and shall not permit or authorize any third party to develop, provide, publish, display, distribute, license, promote, market, monetize, or otherwise exploit such Scenario (or any portion thereof) or any similar or derivative Scenario, to or in connection with any HealthCourse Competitor. "HealthCourse Competitor" means any individual, entity or business that (i) develops, implements, or provides online or digital training or educational content, products or services in the healthcare field, and/or (ii) provides, develops, or consults upon any product or service that may be substantially similar to or which competes (directly or indirectly) with the Simclusive Platform.

  3. Royalties Provided that you are not in breach of this Agreement, for each Completed Session utilizing your Scenario via the Simclusive Platform, you shall be entitled to the following royalty: [$2.00 USD] USD (each a "Royalty"). Royalties, if any, shall be paid on a quarterly basis within 30 days following the end of each calendar quarter (i.e., March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31); provided, however, that in the event the Royalties due are less than [$100.00 USD] for the applicable payment period, HealthCourse will withhold such Royalties until the next applicable payment period in which the total amount due is at least [$100.00 USD] (the "Minimum Royalty Threshold"). If required by law, HealthCourse will withhold taxes from such payments. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Completed Session" means an individual authorized user of the Simclusive Platform has completed a simulated session utilizing your Scenario with a standardized patient through the Simclusive Platform.
