8. Copyright Notice

(a) Our Images are protected by copyright. All rights to the Images are owned by the Creators and licensed by the Robert Harding Picture Library. A copyright and credit line must be included with the reproduction of our Images in the following format:

(i) If non-editorial use, you agree to provide copyright protection by placing proper copyright notice on any use. Proper use may be either "copyright Year Client Name" (which protects the whole and all of its component parts) or "copyright Year Creator’s Name/robertharding" adjacent to or within the Image(s) (which protects the pictures themselves);

(ii) If editorial use, you agree to provide a credit line in the form "copyright Creator’s Name/robertharding" in type no smaller than that of related text, such credit line to appear adjacent to or within the Image(s).

(b) Since it is difficult to quantify the loss or damage incurred by us and our Image Creators due to an incorrect or missing copyright and credit line you agree that a reasonable amount of liquidated damages payable by you to us if the copyright/credit line is omitted or incorrect is 50% of the fee specified in our Invoice/Copyright Licence.

(c) The Creator of the Image(s) hereby asserts his or her rights to be identified as author of the works in accordance with sections 77 and 78 of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

9. Samples of Printed Publications

If our Images are used by you in a print publication you agree to send to us, at your cost, two (2) free samples ("tear sheets") of the relevant pages containing our Images within thirty (30) days of publication. In other media, alternative evidence of use must be provided to us if requested. Failure to supply tear sheets or such alternative evidence of use shall be considered to be a material breach of these Terms and Conditions.

10. Administrative Costs

A service fee to cover administrative costs and transmission of the Images is payable by the Client on each submission and resubmission of the Images by whatever Digital Medium. The Client shall pay for courier, express or any other special delivery arrangement requested. The Client shall also pay Value Added Tax (and any equivalent or substitute tax) on all sums payable under these Terms and Conditions. Refunds will only be given at the discretion of the company management.

11. Term of Licence

The term of the Licence we issue you for use of our high-resolution Images is for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance unless otherwise specified. Our Agreement will terminate automatically without further notice from us once the permitted use and term specified in our Invoice/Copyright Licence have been completed.

12. Invoicing

Customers who have established an account in good standing with the Robert Harding Picture Library have the option of receiving an Invoice for their use of our high-resolution Images. However, until such an Invoice is issued to you for the applicable Reproduction fee for the use of our high- resolution Images neither party is committed to grant or to use any Reproduction rights in any of our Images. After a Reproduction fee has been agreed and an Invoice/Copyright License issued and subsequently paid by you, you are granted specific reproduction rights and you may then use the Images, subject to these Terms and Conditions.

13. Payment

(a) Time is of the essence in the performance of your obligation to pay our Invoice/Copyright License. You only have the right to reproduce our Images when our Invoice/Copyright License is paid in full. Therefore, you agree to pay our Invoice/Copyright License within 30 days of issuance.

(b) Any Reproduction by you before payment of the relevant Invoice/Copyright License constitutes an infringement of copyright and a breach of this Agreement, thus entitling us to rescind the Invoice/Copyright License and rendering you liable for the payment of damages. NO RIGHTS OF REPRODUCTION ARE GRANTED UNTIL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED BY ROBERT HARDING PICTURE LIBRARY.

(c) If payment is not made by you in accordance with 13.(a) above then we may revoke the applicable Invoice/Copyright License and recover damages or, at our option, we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at 4% above the official dealing rate of The Bank of England per annum on the outstanding balance.

(d) All sums required to be paid to us under these Terms and Conditions are expressed net of Value Added Tax (and any equivalent or substitute tax), which (if and to the extent payable on such sums) shall be paid by you.

14. Termination

Either party may immediately terminate this Agreement without payment of compensation, or other damages caused to the other party solely by such termination, by giving written notice to the other party if any one or more of the following events occurs:

(a) the other party commits a material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement which cannot be remedied;

(b) the other party fails to remedy, or persists in, any breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement after having been required in writing to remedy or desist from such breach within a period of 30 days;

(c) the other party or any partner in the other party proposes a voluntary arrangement within the meaning of Section 1 or Section 253 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or an interim order is made in relation to the other party under Section 252 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or any other steps are taken or negotiations commenced by the other party or any of its creditors with a view to proposing any kind of composition, compromise or arrangement involving the other party and any of its creditors;

(d) the other party is deemed unable to pay its debts within the meaning of Section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or calls a meeting for the purpose of passing a resolution to wind it up, or such a resolution is passed, or a resolution is passed by the directors of the other party to seek a winding up or administration order, or the other party presents, or has presented, a petition to appoint an administrator, or has an administrative receiver, or receiver appointed of all or any part of its business, undertaking, property or assets.

(e) in the event that we terminate this Agreement you must immediately (i) stop using our Images and (ii) delete the Images and all copies of them from all of your electronic and/or magnetic media and destroy all other copies of the Images within your possession or control, or, upon request of the Robert Harding Picture Library, return all such copies to us.

15. Anti-piracy and Unauthorised Use

(a) You will provide us with any information which we might reasonably request regarding the anti-piracy measures you have undertaken, i.e., actions you have taken to ensure and prevent the illegal copying and reproduction of the Images or Digital Media you obtain from us by friends, associates, colleagues or co- workers.

(b) We calculate the fee specified in our Invoice/Copyright Licence by relying in good faith on the information you provide to us for the intended use and reproduction specified in that Licence. Since it is difficult to quantify the loss or damage incurred if you use the Images other than in accordance with this Agreement, including but not limited to the number of uses, the publication utilised, or the size of reproduction, we shall have the option to forego our right to sue for copyright infringement and breach of contract if you pay, as liquidated damages, a sum equal to three (3) times the normal fee which we would have charged for such use, within fourteen (14) days of the Robert Harding Picture Library Invoicing you for such fee. If you subsequently fail to make such payment to us we shall have the right to sue you for copyright infringement and breach of contract.

16. Indemnification

(a) You shall indemnify and hold us harmless against all claims, loss, damage, proceedings or costs with respect to Images that have been Reproduced without effective rights, model releases, permissions or consents.

(b) You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Robert Harding Picture Library against all claims, demands, costs, damages and related expenses, whether foreseeable or not, arising directly or indirectly in respect of any claims that the Reproduction of any Image provided to you by us infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. For the purposes of this clause, the term "Intellectual Property Rights" shall include: copyright, database right, patents, registered designs, trademarks and service marks (whether registered or not), design right, and all similar property rights including those subsisting in any part of the world in drawings, software inventions and confidential information.

(c) You agree that you will not use or permit the use of our Images to defame any person or violate any person's right of privacy or publicity, for any obscene or indecent purpose, or in any other way which is illegal or unlawful. You further agree not to use or permit the use of our Images as a trade or service mark, or claim any proprietary rights of any sort in the Image(s) or any part thereof. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against any claim, loss, damage or liability of any kind (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) arising from any use of our Images other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

In any event, the limit of liability of the Robert Harding Picture Library shall be the fee paid for the Images to us.

(e) There may be links from our web site to other web sites on the Internet; however, these web sites are not controlled by us and we are not responsible for any content contained on any such web site or any loss suffered by you in relation to your use of such web sites. You waive any and all claims against us regarding the inclusion of links from the robertharding web site to outside web sites or your use of those web sites.

(f) Some U.S. states and countries outside the United Kingdom do not permit the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or liability for certain categories of damages. Therefore, some or all of the limitations above may not apply to you to the extent they are prohibited or superseded by your state or national provisions.

18. Other Provisions

(a) If any provision or portion of these Terms and Conditions should be determined to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by reason of the laws of any state or country in which this Agreement is intended to be effective, then to the extent and within the jurisdiction which that provision is illegal, invalid or unenforceable it shall be severed and deleted from this Agreement and the remaining Terms and Conditions shall survive, remain in full force and effect and continue to be binding and enforceable.
