VIVEPORT DEVELOPER DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

This Viveport Developer Distribution Agreement (“Agreement”) is a contract between you (“You” or “Your”) and HTC Corporation (“HTC”). Hereinafter, You and HTC may be individually referred to as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

This Agreement is a legally binding contract between You and HTC, and together with any additional terms (“Additional Terms”) provided to You by HTC when using the Store (defined below) governs Your access to and use of the Store to post, display, offer for sale, and distribute Products (defined below).

In order to use the Store to post, display, offer for sale, and distribute Products, You must first agree to this Agreement by clicking to accept where this option is made available to You. You may not distribute Products in the Store if You do not accept this Agreement and any Additional Terms. You represent and warrant that You are of legal age and otherwise competent to be contractually bound by this Agreement. If You agree to be bound by this Agreement on behalf of Your company or other entity, You represent and warrant that You have full legal authority to bind Your employer or such entity to this Agreement. If You do not have the requisite authority, You may not accept the Agreement or use the Store on behalf of Your employer or other entity.

THE VIVEPORT STORE. HTC’s Viveport Store (the “Store”) is an online marketplace that HTC has created and operates which allows registered persons and companies approved by HTC (“Developers”) to post, display, offer for sale and distribute software, content, services, applications, and other digital materials directly to users through the Store (“Products”).

DISTRIBUTING PRODUCTS THROUGH THE STORE
- In order for You to distribute Your Products through the Store, You must (i) fully and accurately complete the Developer registration process, (ii) pay the Developer registration fee, and (iii) acquire and maintain a valid Developer Account, which will be provided to You by HTC in its sole discretion. A “Developer Account” is a publishing account issued by HTC to You as a Developer that enables You to post, display, offer for sale, and distribute Your Products through the Store. You must also acquire and maintain a valid payment account to facilitate the collection and remittance of payments on Your behalf if You want to charge a fee for Your Products.
- You may not use the Store to post, display, offer for sale, and distribute Products unless You are approved by HTC, in its sole discretion, as a Developer in good standing.
- You are responsible for uploading Your Products to the Store, providing required Product information to users including, but not limited to, an End User License Agreement and a Privacy Policy, and accurately disclosing all permissions and consents necessary for Your Product to function. Products that are not properly uploaded or otherwise fail to comply with these requirements will not be distributed through the Store.
- You may upgrade or update Your Product. However, HTC may suspend Your right to upgrade or update Your Product if the frequency exceeds HTC’s ability to process and approve them in a timely fashion, or HTC otherwise determines in its sole discretion to limit such upgrades or updates.
- Users are allowed unlimited reinstalls of each Product distributed via the Store at no additional charge.

PRICING AND PAYMENTS
- Free Products
  - You may choose to distribute Your Products for free. If the Product is free, You will not be charged a Transaction Fee (as such term is defined below).
  - If You initially distribute a Product for free but then want to collect fees after the free trial period expires, You must collect all fees for the full version of the Product through the Store’s payment processing system.
  - If You distribute a Product for free You agree to comply with all applicable guidelines and/or other applicable law relating to the offering of free Products (including those specified by the United States Federal Trade Commission).
- Chargeable Products
  - You may choose to distribute Your Products for a price. In such case, Your Product will be displayed to users on Your behalf at prices You establish, except that each of Your Products must be priced in accordance with any pricing guidelines established by the Store. You must set the price for Your Products only in currencies and increments supported by HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider (as such term is defined below).
  - If in-app purchases are supported by the Store, the following terms shall apply: In-app purchases may be priced at any amount You establish so long as they are within any pricing guidelines established by the Store. In-app purchases must be made using only virtual currency purchased from the Store.
  - The sales price You set for Your Products including any of its in-app purchases, when collected by HTC, will determine the amount of payment You will receive. A Transaction Fee will be charged and subtracted from the sales price, and the remainder will be remitted to You, less any applicable taxes, refunds, charge backs, currency charges, or other reasonable related expenses.
  - HTC’s standard “Transaction Fee” is 30% of the sales price of Your Product including any of its in-app purchases. However, if You elect to distribute Your Products in China through HTC’s optional “Premium Distribution Service” (which helps obtain certain publisher licenses necessary for You to distribute Your Products in China and may include other promotional benefits); then, for sales of Your Products in China, the Transaction Fee is 50% of the sales price of Your Product including any of its in-app purchases. For the avoidance of doubt, if You distribute Your Product(s) in China but do not use HTC’s Premium Distribution Service, You will be solely responsible to obtain these publisher licenses and HTC’s standard Transaction Fee of 30% will apply.
- Subscription Bundles
  - The Store may offer users the ability purchase monthly subscriptions where users can access and use an assortment of bundled Products curated by HTC in exchange for a monthly recurring subscription fee established by HTC.
  - If You elect to distribute Your Products through such a subscription bundle and if Your Product is used by a user in a given month as part of its subscription to that bundle, then, for that usage, in lieu of the revenue sharing model described in Section 3(b) above, Your compensation for each such user will be determined as follows: You will be allocated Your proportionate share of the sales price HTC sets and collects from that user for that subscription bundle. Your proportionate share of that sales price will be pro-rated based on factors determined by HTC such as: the number of Products from the subscription bundle that were downloaded, launched, accessed, used, or experienced in that month by that user, and/or amount of time in that month a Product from the subscription bundle was used by that user in that month; all as reasonably determined by HTC. HTC’s methodology to determine the proportionate share may vary among categories of Products in the subscription bundle. From time to time, HTC may revise its methodology to determine Developers’ proportionate share of a subscription bundle’s sales price.
  - A “Transaction Fee” will be charged and subtracted from Your proportionate share of the subscription bundle’s sales price and the remainder will be remitted back to You less Your share of any applicable taxes, refunds, charge backs, currency charges, or other reasonable related expenses.
  - For these subscription bundles, the Transaction Fee is 40% of Your proportionate share of the bundle’s sales price (and 40% of the sales price of any in-app purchases attributable to Your Product), except for bundles sold in China if You have elected to distribute Your Product through HTC’s Premium Distribution Service, in which case, the Transaction Fee is 50% of Your proportionate share of the bundle’s sales price (and 50% of the sales price of any in-app purchases attributable to Your Product).
- Promotional Programs
  The Store may offer You the ability to participate in promotional programs intended to help achieve broader adoption rates of Your Product by discounting Your Product’s price. If You elect to participate in a promotional program for Your Product by clicking the accept button where this option is made available to You, then You agree that HTC may discount the price of Your Product up to the percentage specified for that promotional program for up to the period specified for that promotional program. HTC may, in its sole discretion, elect to forego all or part of its Transaction Fee from sales of Your Product to lower Your Product’s price for users.
- Other Payment Related Terms
  - HTC may use a third-party payment processor to process sales through the Store and/or allow an authorized reseller to manage and control the sales and purchase experience in the Store (collectively “Third-Party Payment Provider”).
  - On a monthly basis (subject to and as further described in the click-through agreement You establish with HTC’s Third-Party Payment Provider), HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider (i) will report revenues generated by Your Products, after deducting the applicable Transaction Fee(s) and any applicable taxes, refunds, charge backs, currency charges, or other reasonable related expenses, and (ii) will issue payments for amounts then owed to You under this Agreement. Payments will be through a single currency supported by the Store. Transaction Fees may be revised by HTC from time to time.
  - HTC may display the price for Products on the Store to users in their native currency, but HTC is not responsible for the accuracy of currency rates or conversion. You are responsible for all currency adjustment fees and state, local, or national taxes applicable to the sale of Your Products in the Store.
  - HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider shall report all sales of Products on the Store to the relevant taxing authorities and shall collect and remit certain taxes on Your behalf where required by applicable law. If HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider, under mandatory tax law in the jurisdiction in which the payment is made, is required to withhold certain amounts or a certain portion of the payment due to You, HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider may deduct such mandatory amounts to the extent as required under the applicable tax law from all payments to You, and remit such amounts to the appropriate tax authority. HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider shall provide You with copies of all necessary documents (e.g. tax receipts received from the applicable tax authority) in order for You to be able to claim and receive a foreign tax credit in an amount corresponding to the amount withheld by HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) You are still responsible to determine if Your Products are taxable and the applicable tax rate for each taxing jurisdiction where You distribute Your Product, and (ii) You are still responsible for remitting such taxes to the appropriate taxing authority.
  - All payments received by Developers for Products distributed via the Store and all payments received by Developers for in-app purchases must be processed through the Store’s payment processing system.
  - HTC reserves the right to handle refund requests for Products as HTC deems appropriate in its sole discretion. This may mean a full refund of the price paid by the user. HTC or its Third-Party Payment Provider shall manage refund requests for Products in an ethical manner, in compliance with applicable laws, and in accordance with any refund policies it may establish. As set forth above, amounts refunded back to users from the purchase of Your Products will, at HTC’s option, be deducted from amounts owed to You under this Agreement or charged back to You (in which case You agree to immediately pay the charge back).
  - Additional payment related terms and conditions are set forth in the click-through agreement You establish with HTC’s Third-Party Payment Provider.
