This Non-Exclusive License Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into between the Licensor and the Licensee upon completion of payment for the musical composition ("Beat") listed in the transaction details.

1. RIGHTS GRANTED

Upon full payment, the Licensor grants the Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to use the Beat to create one (1) new audio recording ("New Song").

• Audio Format Provided: MP3 File (320 kbps).

• Usage Rights:

  • Live Performances: Non-profit or paid live performances up to $1,000 USD in total gross performance earnings.

  • Music Videos: One (1) non-monetized music video for promotional purposes (uploaded to YouTube/Vimeo/social media).

2. OWNERSHIP & COPYRIGHT

• Master Rights & Copyright: The Licensor retains 100% full copyright ownership and master rights of the underlying Beat. This agreement is a license to use the Beat, not a sale of ownership.

• Publishing Split:

  • Writer’s Share (Beat): 50% to Licensor ([Your Name / PRO Name / CAE/IPI #]).

  • Writer’s Share (Lyrics/Vocal): 50% to Licensee.

3. CREDIT REQUIREMENTS

The Licensee must give proper credit to the Licensor on all metadata, releases, and promotional material.

• Required Format: Produced by [Your Producer Name] (or prod. by [Your Name]).

4. RESTRICTIONS & PROHIBITIONS

• No Reselling or Transfer: The Licensee may not sell, loan, sub-license, or share the Beat file to any third party.

• Content ID & Copyright Claims: The Licensee CANNOT register the New Song with any Content ID service (e.g., YouTube Content ID, TuneCore/DistroKid Content ID, Shazam) or copyright database that uses automated audio matching, as this conflicts with other non-exclusive license holders.

• No Alterations: The Licensee may not alter the structure, pitch, or tempo of the Beat to re-sell or copyright it as an instrumental track.

5. EXPIRATION & UPGRADES

• Once the stream limit (100,000) or sales cap (2,000 copies) is reached, this agreement expires.

• To continue distributing or performing the track, the Licensee must purchase a license upgrade (e.g., WAV, Premium, Unlimited, or Exclusive License).

6. ACCEPTANCE

By purchasing and downloading the Beat, the Licensee agrees to all terms and conditions stated in this Agreement.
