Epic may provide functionality permitting you to upload scans and/or other assets to MetaHuman Creator (“UGC”). You hereby grant to Epic a non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, and revocable license to use the UGC to enable your use of MetaHuman Creator with your UGC. You represent and warrant that (1) neither the UGC nor your use thereof will violate applicable law, (2) you have all necessary rights, permissions, consents, and (if applicable) legal bases to use the UGC (including to provide UGC to Epic, create Generated Characters, and, if applicable, process and transfer personal data) and grant the rights to UGC contemplated by this Agreement, and neither the UGC nor your use thereof will violate or infringe any third party rights, including intellectual property rights or confidentiality, privacy, data protection, image, publicity, or moral rights, and (3) the UGC will not contain any viruses or malicious code or content, such as any software that interferes with, disrupts, damages, or provides unauthorized access to devices, servers, networks or other properties or services of Epic or any third party.

Ownership
Epic and its licensors own all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in the MetaHuman Technology, and all related data. The MetaHuman, MetaHuman Creator, the MetaHuman Creator logo, and Rig Logic are trademarks or registered trademarks of Epic. All rights granted to you under this Agreement are granted by express license only and not by sale. No license or other rights shall be created hereunder by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, even if necessary or useful to practice or otherwise use Downloaded Characters or your products that incorporate or depict rendered Downloaded Characters. The consideration provided to Epic under this Agreement is only for the License. Any other rights would require an additional license and separate consideration, and nothing in this Agreement requires or will be treated to require Epic to grant any additional licenses.
You and your licensors own all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in the UGC you upload to MetaHuman Creator. Except for your Retained Rights, if any rights vest in you that relate to the MetaHuman Assets or MetaHuman Creator, you hereby assign, and shall assign or procure the assignment of, all such rights to Epic, including by way of assignment of any future copyright. During and after the term of this Agreement, you will take such actions as requested by Epic from time to time (including the execution, acknowledgment and delivery of documents and giving of testimony, and causing its personnel to do the same) to effect, perfect or evidence such assignment and Epic’s ownership of such rights.
With respect to Generated Characters, you acknowledge that other Epic customers may create meshes, textures, hairstyle assets, face rigs, and body rigs with similar or identical looks as the meshes, textures, hairstyle assets, face rigs, and body rigs produced by you with the MetaHuman Technology.
- Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The MetaHuman Technology is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind. Epic, its affiliates, and its and their licensors and service providers (collectively, the “Licensor Parties”) disclaim all representations, warranties and conditions (whether express or implied) with respect to the MetaHuman Technology, including without limitation regarding non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness or suitability for any purpose (whether or not Epic knows or has reason to know of any such purpose), whether arising under law, by reason of custom or usage in the trade, or by course of dealing. The MetaHuman Technology may be subject to planned or unplanned limitations or changes to access, availability, performance, or capacity, which may impact your use or ability to use the MetaHuman Technology without notice. Any allocation of time, seats, availability or other capacity to use the MetaHuman Technology is not guaranteed. Without limiting the foregoing, the Licensor Parties make no warranty that (1) the MetaHuman Technology will operate properly, (2) the operation or availability of the MetaHuman Technology will be uninterrupted or free of bugs, errors, or malware (such as viruses), or (3) any defects in the MetaHuman Technology can or will be corrected. This paragraph will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Licensor Parties shall not be liable for any loss of profits or any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or MetaHuman Technology, even if a Licensor Party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Further, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the aggregate liability of the Licensor Parties arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or MetaHuman Technology (including any loss, alteration or corruption of Generated Characters or work in progress) will not exceed One Hundred Dollars (USD $100). These limitations and exclusions regarding damages apply even if any remedy fails to provide adequate compensation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, some countries, states, provinces or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability as stated above, so the above terms may not apply to you. Instead, in such jurisdictions, the foregoing exclusions and limitations shall apply only to the extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdictions. Also, you may have additional legal rights in your jurisdiction, and nothing in this Agreement will prejudice the statutory rights that you may have as a consumer of MetaHuman Technology.
- Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, pay the defense costs of, and hold harmless Epic, its licensors, its and their affiliates, and its and their employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors, and other representatives from and against all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs, and expert witnesses’ fees) that arise from or in connection with (a) any claim that, if true, would constitute a breach by you of this Agreement, (b) any claim that any Generated Character, derivative work or other matter you created, or your exercise of the License, infringes any third party’s confidentiality, image, privacy, data protection or similar rights, intellectual property rights or other proprietary or personal rights, or (c) your gross negligence or willful misconduct. You agree to reimburse Epic on demand for any defense costs incurred by Epic and any payments made or loss suffered by Epic, whether in a court judgment or settlement, based on any matter covered by this Section.
If you are prohibited by law from entering into the indemnification obligation above, then you assume, to the extent permitted by law, all liability for all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expert witnesses’ fees) that are the stated subject matter of the indemnification obligation above.
