PlayM2M End User License Agreement

Welcome to Laniatus LLC ("Laniatus") and PlayM2M ("M2M"). M2M consists of two components: (a) the software program and any related materials or documentation (collectively, the "M2M Client"), and (b) the proprietary online service provided by Laniatus LLC (the "Service").

Your use of the M2M Client is governed by the M2M End User License Agreement (the "EULA"). Your use of the Service is governed by this Terms of Use as well as the Laniatus LLC Terms of Use Agreement ("LANIATUS TOU (TERMS OF USE)"), both of which are incorporated by reference.

To play the game, you must accept the EULA, the Terms of Use, and the Laniatus TOU (collectively referred to as the "Laniatus LLC Agreements").

All rights and title in and to the Service (including without limitation any user accounts, titles, computer code, themes, objects, characters, character names, stories, dialogue, catch phrases, locations, concepts, artwork, animations, sounds, musical compositions, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, moral rights, any related documentation, "applets," transcripts of the chat rooms, character profile information, recordings of games) are owned by Laniatus LLC or its licensors. The M2M and the Service are protected by United States and international laws, and may contain certain licensed materials in which Laniatus LLC licensors may enforce their rights in the event of any violation of this Agreement.

4a. The license granted to you for the PlayM2M Game Software is strictly limited to access via the Steam platform, through the official Steam Client provided by Valve Corporation. You are prohibited from converting, modifying, or attempting to run the Game Software as a standalone client outside of the Steam platform. Any such action is expressly forbidden and constitutes a violation of this EULA, subjecting you to immediate termination of the license and potential legal action.

5. No Ownership Rights in Account. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU SHALL HAVE NO OWNERSHIP OR OTHER PROPERTY INTEREST IN ANY ACCOUNT STORED OR HOSTED ON A LANIATUS LLC SYSTEM, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY LANIATUS ACCOUNT OR "M2M" ACCOUNT. HOWEVER, YOU ARE GRANTED A LIMITED LICENSE TO USE AND ACCESS YOUR ACCOUNT AND ITS ASSOCIATED CONTENT FOR THE DURATION OF YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICE. ALL UNDERLYING RIGHTS IN AND TO SUCH ACCOUNTS AND THE SERVICE INFRASTRUCTURE SHALL REMAIN THE PROPERTY OF LANIATUS LLC. ANY USER-GENERATED CONTENT YOU CREATE WITHIN THE GAME IS LICENSED TO LANIATUS LLC ON A NON-EXCLUSIVE, ROYALTY-FREE BASIS SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF OPERATING AND IMPROVING THE SERVICE.

6. Account Suspension/Deletion. LANIATUS LLC RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SUSPEND, TERMINATE, MODIFY, OR DELETE ANY LANIATUS ACCOUNT OR "M2M" ACCOUNT IN CASES OF TERMS OF SERVICE VIOLATIONS, EXTENDED INACTIVITY, OR OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY COMPROMISE THE INTEGRITY OF THE SERVICE. IN CASES OF TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OR PERMANENT TERMINATION DUE TO VIOLATIONS, LANIATUS LLC WILL GENERALLY PROVIDE REASONING FOR SUCH ACTIONS, THOUGH THE SPECIFIC DETAILS OF INVESTIGATIONS MAY REMAIN CONFIDENTIAL. USERS MAY APPEAL ACCOUNT ACTIONS THROUGH THE DESIGNATED SUPPORT CHANNELS. FOR PURPOSES OF EXPLANATION AND NOT LIMITATION, MOST ACCOUNT SUSPENSIONS, TERMINATIONS AND/OR DELETIONS ARE THE RESULT OF VIOLATIONS OF THIS TERMS OF USE OR THE EULA.

7. Code of Conduct. As with all things, your use of the M2M is governed by certain rules. These rules (the "PlayM2M Code of Conduct"), maintained and enforced exclusively by Laniatus LLC Agreements, must be adhered to by all players. It is your responsibility to know, understand and abide by this PlayM2M Code of Conduct. The following rules are not meant to be exhaustive, and Laniatus LLC Agreements reserves the right to determine which conduct it considers to be outside the spirit of the M2M and to take such disciplinary measures as it sees fit up to and including termination and deletion of the Account. Laniatus LLC Agreements reserves the right to modify this Code of Conduct at any time.

A: Rules Related to Usernames and Nation(Guild or Clan) Designations. Each user will either select a character name or allow the Service to automatically select a character name at random. Additionally, users may form "nation(Guild)" and such nations will be required to choose a name for the nation. When you choose a character name, create a nation(Guild), or otherwise create a label that can be seen by other players using the M2M or the Service, you must abide by the following guidelines as well as the rules of common decency. If Laniatus LLC finds such a label to be offensive or improper, it may, in its sole and absolute discretion, change the name, remove the label and corresponding chat room, and/or suspend or terminate your use of the Service. In particular, you may not use any name:

(i) Belonging to another person with the intent to impersonate that person, including without limitation a "M2M" or any other employee or agent of Laniatus LLC; (ii) That incorporates vulgar language or which are otherwise offensive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable; (iii) Subject to the rights of any other person or entity without written authorization from that person or entity; (iv) That belongs to a popular culture figure, celebrity, or media personality; (v) That is, contains, or is substantially similar to a trademark or service mark, whether registered or not; (vi) Belonging to any religious figure or deity; (vii) Related to drugs, sex, alcohol, or criminal activity; (viii) Comprised of partial or complete sentence (e.g., "Inyourface", "Welovebeef", etc); (ix) Comprised of gibberish (e.g., "Asdfasdf", "Jjxccm", "Hvlldrm"); (x) Referring to pop culture icons or personas (e.g. " "Britneyspears", "Austinpowers", "Batman") (xi) That utilizes "Leet" or "Dudespeak" (e.g., "Roflcopter", "xxnewbxx", "Roxxoryou") (xii) Names including titles. For purposes of this subsection, "titles" shall include, but not be limited to: 'rank' titles (e.g., "Game Master," or "Game Admin"), manager or officer titles (e.g., "Admin," "Manager"), and abbreviating titles (e.g., "GM," or "SGM"). You may not use a misspelled or alternative spelling to circumvent the name restrictions listed above, nor may you have "first" and "last" names that, when combined, violate the above name restrictions.

B. Rules Related to "Chat" and Interaction With Other Users. Communicating in-M2M with other Users and Laniatus LLC representatives, whether by text, voice or any other method, is an integral part of the M2M and the Service and is referred to here as "Chat." When engaging in Chat, you may not:

(i) Transmit or post any content or language which, in the sole and absolute discretion of Laniatus LLC , is deemed to be offensive, including without limitation content or language that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, hateful, sexually explicit, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable, nor may you use a misspelling or an alternative spelling to circumvent the content and language restrictions listed above; (ii) Carry out any action with a disruptive effect, such as intentionally causing the Chat screen to scroll faster than other users are able to read, or setting up macros with large amounts of text that, when used, can have a disruptive effect on the normal flow of Chat; (iii) Disrupt the normal flow of dialogue in Chat or otherwise act in a manner that negatively affects other users including without limitation posting commercial solicitations and/or advertisements for goods and services available outside of the "M2M" universe; (iv) Sending repeated unsolicited or unwelcome messages to a single user or repeatedly posting similar messages in a Chat area, including without limitation continuous advertisements to sell goods or services; (v) Communicate or post any user's personal information in the Game, or on websites or forums related to the Game, except that a user may communicate his or her own personal information in a private message directed to a single user; (vi) Harass, threaten, stalk, embarrass or cause distress, unwanted attention or discomfort to any user of the Game; (vii) Participate in any action that, in the sole and absolute opinion of Laniatus LLC , results or may result in an authorized user of the M2M being "scammed" or defrauded out of gold, weapons, armor, or any other items that user has earned through authorized M2M play in the Game; (viii) Communicate directly with players who are playing characters aligned with the opposite faction; or (ix) Impersonate any real person, including without limitation any "M2M" or any other Laniatus LLC agent or employee, nor may you communicate in the M2M in any way designed to make others believe that your message constitutes a server message or was otherwise posted by any Laniatus LLC agent or employee.

C. Rules Related to M2M Play. M2M play is what "M2M" is all about, and Laniatus LLC strictly enforces the rules that govern M2M play. Laniatus LLC considers most conduct to be part of the Game, and not harassment, so player-killing the enemies of your nation, is considered a part of the Game. Because the M2M is a "player vs. player" game, you should always remember to protect yourself in areas where the members of hostile nations can attack you, rather than contacting Laniatus LLC 's in-M2M customer service representatives for help when you have been killed by an enemy of your nation. Nonetheless, certain acts go beyond what is "fair" and are considered serious violations of these Terms of Use. Those acts include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:

(i) Using or exploiting errors in design, features which have not been documented, and/or "program bugs" to gain access that is otherwise not available, or to obtain a competitive advantage over other players; (ii) Conduct prohibited by the EULA or elsewhere in these Terms of Use; and (iii) Anything that Laniatus LLC considers contrary to the "essence" of the Game.

8. Ownership/Selling of the Account or Virtual Items. Laniatus LLC does not recognize the transfer of "M2M" Accounts or Hero Accounts (each an "Account"). You may not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or offer to purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, and any such attempt shall be null and void. Laniatus LLC owns, has licensed, or otherwise has rights to all of the content that appears in the Game. You agree that you have no right or title in or to any such content, including without limitation the virtual goods or currency appearing or originating in the Game, or any other attributes associated with any Account. Laniatus LLC does not recognize any purported transfers of virtual property executed outside of the Game, or the purported sale, gift or trade in the "real world" of anything that appears or originates in the Game. Accordingly, you may not sell in-M2M items or currency for "real" money, or exchange those items or currency for value outside of the Game.

9. Changes to the Terms of Use or the Game. LANIATUS LLC RESERVES THE RIGHT, AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION, TO CHANGE, MODIFY, ADD TO, SUPPLEMENT OR DELETE, AT ANY TIME, ANY OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY FEATURE OF THE M2M OR THE SERVICE, HOURS OF AVAILABILITY, CONTENT, DATA, SOFTWARE OR EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO ACCESS THE M2M OR THE SERVICE. USERS WILL BE NOTIFIED OF MATERIAL CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT AT LEAST THIRTY (30) DAYS IN ADVANCE VIA EMAIL OR PROMINENT IN-GAME NOTIFICATION. USERS WHO OBJECT TO MATERIAL CHANGES MAY EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE AGREEMENT WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION PERIOD. CONTINUED USE OF THE SERVICE AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF CHANGES CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THE MODIFIED TERMS. MATERIAL CHANGES TO THIS TERMS OF USE AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE APPLIED RETROACTIVELY. Laniatus LLC may change, modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the M2M at any time. Laniatus LLC may also impose limits on certain features or restrict your access to parts or all of the M2M without notice or liability. The entire risk arising out of the use or performance of the M2M (including without limitation the M2M Client and manual(s)) remains with you, the user. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

10. Termination. This Agreement is effective until terminated. You may terminate this Agreement by deleting the M2M Client and terminating all "M2M" Accounts registered to you. In the event that you terminate or breach this Agreement, you will forfeit your right to any and all payments you may have made for pre-purchased M2M access to PlayM2M. You acknowledge and agree that you are not entitled to any refund for any amounts which were pre-paid prior to any termination of this Agreement. Laniatus LLC may terminate this Agreement (and your access to the Game) with or without notice for any reason, or for no reason. The provisions of Sections 4, 5, 8, 11, and 12-17 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

11. Warranty Disclaimer. The Software is provided "AS IS" and if have "WITH ALL FAULTS," without warranty of any kind, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. The Licensor makes no warranty that the Software is free of defects or is suitable for any particular purpose. In no event, shall the Licensor be responsible for loss or damages arising from the installation or use of the Software, including but not limited to any indirect, punitive, special, incidental or consequential damages of any character including, without limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Software is borne by you. Should the Software prove defective, you and not the Licensor assume the entire cost of any service and repair.

12. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT, SHALL Laniatus LLC, ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES, LICENSORS OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, LIQUIDATED, OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER UNDER CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE M2M OR THE SERVICE. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. In no event, shall Laniatus LLC 's aggregate liability, whether arising in contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, exceed the total fees paid by you to Laniatus LLC during the six (6) months immediately prior to the time such claim arose.

13. Indemnification. YOU HEREBY AGREE TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS Laniatus LLC, ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES, FROM AND AGAINST ANY CLAIM, LIABILITY, INJURY, DAMAGE, LOSS OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES) INCURRED AS A RESULT OF, ARISING FROM, OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE M2M AND/OR THE SERVICE.

14. Force Majeure. Laniatus LLC shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside the reasonable control of Laniatus LLC , including without limitation any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond Laniatus LLC 's control such as acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.

15. Acknowledgments. You hereby acknowledge and agree that:

A. WHEN RUNNING, THE M2M CLIENT OPERATES AS A REAL-TIME, FULL-TIME APPLICATION THAT REQUIRES CERTAIN SYSTEM MONITORING CAPABILITIES TO ENSURE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE, PROVIDE TECHNICAL SUPPORT, AND MAINTAIN GAME INTEGRITY. THE CLIENT MAY MONITOR YOUR COMPUTER'S RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY (RAM) AND/OR CPU PROCESSES SOLELY TO DETECT UNAUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY PROGRAMS RUNNING CONCURRENTLY WITH PLAYM2M. THIS MONITORING IS ESSENTIAL FOR PREVENTING CHEATING, MAINTAINING FAIR GAMEPLAY, AND ENABLING OUR TECHNICAL SUPPORT TEAM TO ASSIST WITH PERFORMANCE ISSUES. AN "UNAUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY PROGRAM" AS USED HEREIN SHALL BE DEFINED AS ANY THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE THAT, WHEN USED SIMULTANEOUSLY OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE GAME, WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF SECTIONS 1, 2 OR 7.

B. TO FACILITATE TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND IMPROVE SERVICE QUALITY, THE M2M CLIENT MAY COLLECT CERTAIN TECHNICAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR SYSTEM, INCLUDING YOUR HARDWARE SPECIFICATIONS, OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION, AND IP ADDRESS. THIS INFORMATION IS USED EXCLUSIVELY FOR TROUBLESHOOTING, OPTIMIZATION, AND ENSURING COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SERVICE. ALL DATA COLLECTION IS CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE PRIVACY LAWS AND OUR PRIVACY POLICY.

C. Laniatus LLC may, with or without notice to you, disclose your Internet Protocol (IP) address(es), personal information, chat logs, and other information about you and your activities: (a) in response to a request by law enforcement, a court order or other legal process; or (b) if Laniatus LLC believes that doing so may protect your safety or the safety of others.

E. You are wholly responsible for the cost of all telephone and Internet access charges along with all necessary equipment, servicing, repair or correction incurred in maintaining connectivity to the Servers.

16. Equitable Remedies. In the event that you breach this Agreement, you hereby agree that Laniatus LLC would be irreparably damaged if this Agreement were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that Laniatus LLC shall be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as Laniatus LLC may otherwise have available to it under applicable laws. In the event, any litigation is brought by either party in connection with this Agreement and consistent with Section 17, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to recover from the other party all the costs, attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party in the litigation.

17. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law.

A. Informal Negotiations. To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to this Agreement ("Dispute"), you and Laniatus LLC agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one person to the other. Laniatus LLC will send its notice to your billing address and email you a copy to the email address you have provided to us. You will send your notice to Laniatus LLC, ATTN: Legal Department.

B. BINDING ARBITRATION: If you and Laniatus LLC are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either party may elect to have the Dispute resolved through arbitration, subject to the exceptions outlined below. Both parties retain the right to pursue claims in small claims court where applicable. Users in jurisdictions where mandatory arbitration clauses are prohibited by consumer protection laws may opt out of arbitration and pursue remedies through their local courts. THE ARBITRATION PROCESS SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION, WITH CONSIDERATION FOR CONSUMER PROTECTION PROVISIONS WHERE APPLICABLE.

C. CLASS ACTION RIGHTS: Users retain their rights under applicable consumer protection laws in their jurisdiction. In regions where class action waivers are not enforceable, users may participate in class actions to the extent permitted by local law. For all other jurisdictions, individual arbitration or court proceedings are the preferred method of dispute resolution, though this does not waive any rights guaranteed under mandatory consumer protection regulations.

D. Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration. You and Laniatus LLC agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (1) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or Laniatus LLC 's intellectual property rights; (2) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (3) any claim for injunctive relief.

E. Location. If you are a resident of the United States, any arbitration will take place at any reasonable location within the United States convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Montgomery, State of Maryland, United States of America. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration (other than claims proceeding in any small claims court), or where no election to arbitrate has been made, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within said County, and you and Laniatus LLC agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

F. Governing Law. Except as expressly provided otherwise, this Agreement shall be governed by, and will be construed under, the Laws of the United States of America and the law of the State of Delaware, without regard to choose of law principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. For our customers who access the Service from Canada, Chile, Mexico, Argentina, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, or New Zealand, other laws may apply if you choose not to agree to arbitrate as set forth above, and in such an event, shall affect this Agreement only to the extent required by such jurisdiction. In such a case, this Agreement shall be interpreted to give maximum effect to the terms and conditions hereof. If you access the Service from New Zealand, and are a resident of New Zealand, The New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act of 1993 ("Act") may apply to the M2M and/or the Service as supplied by Laniatus LLC to you. If the Act applies, then notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, you may have rights or remedies as set out in the Act which may apply in addition to, or, to the extent that they are inconsistent, instead of, the rights or remedies set out in this Agreement. Those who choose to access the Service from locations outside of the United States, Canada, Australia, Singapore, or New Zealand do so on their own initiative contrary to the terms of this Agreement, and are responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

G. Severability. You and Laniatus LLC agree that if any portion of Section 17 is found illegal or unenforceable (except any portion of 17(d)), that portion shall be severed and the remainder of the Section shall be given full force and effect. If Section 17(d) is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor Laniatus LLC will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of Section 17(d) found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within said County, and you and Laniatus LLC agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

18. Miscellaneous. If any provision of this Agreement shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this Agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. This Terms of Use Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Laniatus LLC concerning the Service, and this Agreement supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreement, either oral or written, and any other communications with regard thereto between you and Laniatus LLC ; provided, however that this Agreement is in addition to, and does not replace or supplant, the EULA or the TOU. This Agreement may only be modified as set forth herein. The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be read to have any legal effect.
