  1. Screencrib Service Overview. Screencrib provides a new platform aimed at making film, media, and other entertainment project financing easier, fun, and more predictable. Screencrib’s platform allows investors and audiences alike to invest indirectly through a special-purpose vehicle in feature films, media, and other entertainment projects (each, a “Project”). With Screencrib, investors, creatives and audiences will be part of the community helping great stories to be told.

  3. Screencrib Affiliates.  Certain of our Services may be provided by or with one or more affiliates of Screencrib Limited (each an “Affiliate”), and in some cases your agreements related to a particular portion of the Service (such as those related to your investment, if any) may be with one or more such Affiliates. 

  4. Accounts and Registration. To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, certain demographic information or other contact information.

  5. Screencrib Investments and Projects

Screencrib provides a funding platform for Projects. All funding is provided by Screencrib to Projects indirectly through investments made by Investors in special-purpose vehicles that aggregate funding and invest in a single Project.  Each vehicle is sponsored and managed by Screencrib or one or more of its Affiliates. Investors may browse the Screencrib website to view information about the Projects and the terms of investing into a special-purpose vehicle used for investments in each Project.  

Before investing, Investors are responsible for reviewing the materials provided by Screencrib or the applicable Affiliate(s) with respect to an indirect investment in a Project, including the private placement memorandum (“PPM”) for the investment program offered through the platform; an appendix to the PPM related to a particular investment opportunity; the limited partnership agreement and appendix for the special purpose vehicle related to a particular Project; and a subscription agreement through which Investors purchase interests in the special purpose vehicle (these agreements collectively make up the “Offering Materials”). The specific terms contained in the relevant Offering Materials will govern each investment.  To the extent there are any conflicts between these Terms and the terms set forth in any Offering Materials, the terms of the Offering Materials will control to the extent of the conflict with respect to the investment described in such Offering Materials.  Investors are solely responsible for understanding the terms of investing and assessing the risks involved and whether an investment is appropriate for them.  Screencrib and its Affiliates will not assess whether an Investor should make an indirect investment in a Project.

6. Using the Service as a Rights Holder 

Project sponsors (each, a “Rights Holder”) who use the platform to obtain funding for a Project through a special purpose vehicle will do so under the terms of their agreements with the associated special purpose vehicle, which they will negotiate with Screencrib or one or more of Screencrib’s Affiliates (the “Rights Holder Agreement”).  In the event of a conflict between these terms and any Rights Holder Agreement, the terms of the Rights Holder Agreement will control to the extent of the conflict with respect to the Project described in such Rights Holder Agreement.

Unit 416, Workspace Brickfields

14.3. Procedure for Reporting Claimed Infringement. If you believe that any content made available on or through the Service has been used or exploited in a manner that infringes an intellectual property right you own or control, then please promptly send a written “Notification of Claimed Infringement” to the Designated Agent identified above containing the following information:

  • (a) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other right being infringed;

  • (b) a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property right that you claim has been infringed;

  • (c) a description of the material that you claim is infringing and where it is located on the Service;

  • (d) your address, telephone number, and email address;

  • (e) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the use of the materials on the Service of which you are complaining is not authorized by the copyright or other intellectual property right owner, its agent, or the law; and

  • (f) a statement by you that the above information in your notice is accurate and that, under penalty of perjury, you are the copyright or other intellectual property right owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner’s behalf.

Your Notification of Claimed Infringement may be shared by Screencrib with the user alleged to have infringed a right you own or control as well as with the operators of publicly available databases that track notifications of claimed infringement, and you consent to Screencrib making such disclosures. You should consult with your own lawyer or see 17 U.S.C. § 512 to confirm your obligations to provide a valid notice of claimed infringement.

14.4. Repeat Infringers. Screencrib’s policy is to: (a) remove or disable access to material that Screencrib believes in good faith, upon notice from an intellectual property rights owner or authorized agent, is infringing the intellectual property rights of a third party by being made available through the Service; and (b) in appropriate circumstances, to terminate the accounts of and block access to the Service by any user who repeatedly or egregiously infringes other people’s copyright or other intellectual property rights. Screencrib will terminate the accounts of users that are determined by Screencrib to be repeat infringers. Screencrib reserves the right, however, to suspend or terminate accounts of users in our sole discretion.  

14.5 Counter Notification. If you receive a notification from Screencrib that material made available by you on or through the Service has been the subject of a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then you will have the right to provide Screencrib with what is called a “Counter Notification.” To be effective, a Counter Notification must be in writing, provided to Screencrib’s Designated Agent through one of the methods identified in Section 14.2 (DMCA Notification), and include substantially the following information:

  • (a) your physical or electronic signature;

  • (b) identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

  • (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and

  • (d) your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if you are residing outside of the United States, then for any judicial district in which Screencrib may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification under Section 14.2 (DMCA Notification) above or an agent of that person.

A party submitting a Counter Notification should consult a lawyer or see 17 U.S.C. § 512 to confirm the party’s obligations to provide a valid counter notification under the Copyright Act.

14.6. Reposting of Content Subject to a Counter Notification. If you submit a Counter Notification to Screencrib in response to a Notification of Claimed Infringement, then Screencrib will promptly provide the person who provided the Notification of Claimed Infringement with a copy of your Counter Notification and inform that person that Screencrib will replace the removed User Content or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days, and Screencrib will replace the removed User Content and cease disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the Counter Notification, unless Screencrib’s Designated Agent receives notice from the party that submitted the Notification of Claimed Infringement that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on Screencrib’s system or network.

14.7. False Notifications of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notifications. The Copyright Act provides at 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) that: “[a]ny person who knowingly materially misrepresents under [Section 512 of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512)] (1) that material or activity is infringing, or (2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, will be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or copyright owner’s authorized licensee, or by a service provider, who is injured by such misrepresentation, as the result of [Screencrib] relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to disable access to it.” Screencrib reserves the right to seek damages from any party that submits a Notification of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notification in violation of the law.

15. Modification of Terms. We may, from time to time, change these Terms. Please check these Terms periodically for changes. Revisions will be effective immediately except that, for existing users, material revisions will be effective 30 days after posting or notice to you of the revisions unless otherwise stated. We may require that you accept modified Terms in order to continue to use the Service.  If you do not agree to the modified Terms, then you should remove your User Content and discontinue your use of the Service.

Although we are agreeing to arbitrate most disputes between us, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

20.3. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 20 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to Screencrib Limited, Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, Unit 416, Workspace Brickfields, 37 Cremer Street, E2 8HD, London, UK that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Screencrib receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 20 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 21.2 (Governing Law). The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

20.4. Arbitrator. This arbitration agreement, and any arbitration between us, is subject the Federal Arbitration Act and will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at +1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Screencrib. 

20.5. Commencing Arbitration. Before initiating arbitration, a party must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). Screencrib’s address for Notice is: Screencrib Limited, Unit 416, Workspace Brickfields, 37 Cremer Street, E2 8HD, London UK. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) identify the name or account number of the party making the claim; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Screencrib may commence an arbitration proceeding. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Screencrib will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than US$10,000 or if Screencrib has received 25 or more similar demands for arbitration, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules and the other party may seek reimbursement for any fees paid to AAA.

20.6. Arbitration Proceedings. Any arbitration hearing will take place in the county and state of your billing address unless we agree otherwise or, if the claim is for US$10,000 or less (and does not seek injunctive relief), you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a telephonic or video hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Screencrib must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. 

20.7. Arbitration Relief. Except as provided in Section 20.8 (No Class Actions), the arbitrator can award any relief that would be available if the claims had been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Screencrib before an arbitrator was selected, Screencrib will pay to you the higher of: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator and (b) US$10,000. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties, except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator's award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator's application or conclusions of law. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

20.8. No Class Actions. YOU AND SCREENCRIB AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Screencrib agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.  

20.9. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Screencrib makes any substantive change to this arbitration provision, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Screencrib’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Screencrib will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

20.10. Enforceability. If Section 20.8 (No Class Actions) or the entirety of this Section 20 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) is found to be unenforceable, or if Screencrib receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 20 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 21.2 (Governing Law) will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
