Lacroze 2252, 1o ‘A’, Buenos Aires, Argentina (known, for the purposes of this agreement as “Three Melons”), hereby submits this VIDEOGAME BETA TESTING AGREEMENT PROPOSAL to the consideration of you (“You”). Once accepted by You in the manner set forth in Section 13, you would be considered a “Beta Tester” and this proposal shall constitute the VIDEOGAME BETA TESTING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) between the Parties regarding the subject matter herein.

1.    RECITALS

1.1.    Three Melons.

Three Melons is a company in the business of designing, developing and publishing videogame products.

1.2.    The Videogame.

Three Melons has designed and developed an online videogame for social networks entitled “Bola” (the “Videogame). 

1.3.    The Program.

Three Melons has established a beta testing program (the “Program”) to, among other things, allow a limited number of people to give feedback and comments to Three Melons regarding the Videogame (including any versions thereof) as well as to test, at Three Melons’ sole discretion, the features, capabilities and performance of any other software or materials as may be provided by Three Melons as part of this Program (the “Beta Software”). Collectively the Videogame and Beta Software are referred to as the “Beta Materials” in this Agreement. 

For those who would participate in the Program by the acceptance of this Proposal (the “Beta Tester”), Three Melons shall offer access, through certain Social Networks (such as Facebook) from where the Beta Tester shall be a registered member and have an account (the “Account”) to play the Videogame before its official publication and release. 

The Program shall be governed by the following legal terms and conditions.

2.    THE PROGRAM.

2.1.    Conditions to participate in the Program. The Beta Tester acknowledges, agrees, accepts, declares and warrants that:

a)    The Beta Tester is 18 (eighteen) years old or older, and is not a principal, employee, agent, independent contractor, officer or director of a developer or publisher of video or computer Videogames (other than Three Melons). If the Beta Tester is under 18 years of age, he may not participate in the Program. The Beta Tester is entering into this Agreement on a completely voluntary basis with no expectation of any form of compensation whatsoever other than what is expressly provided for in this Agreement. 
b)    The Beta Tester has a valid and legal Account, through which the Beta Tester shall access to play the Videogame and shall be used to participate in the Program. As a consequence, the Account shall be in compliance with the policies and or terms of use/ service of that social network.
c)    The Program shall run from the time he installs, copies, download, access or otherwise uses the Beta Materials, and shall end upon the expiration of the Program, unless otherwise extended or terminated unilaterally by Three Melons at Three Melons’ sole discretion. Furthermore, Three Melons may, in its sole discretion for any reason and at any time during the Program terminate his participation therein without any form of compensation due to him whatsoever for this termination. 
d)    In becoming part of the Program, that Three Melons is providing him free of charge the Beta Materials (which constitutes the sole and sufficient consideration for this agreement) and that Three Melons has not made any other promises, whether express or implied regarding any other form of consideration for his participation in the Program. Unless otherwise provided, the Beta Material provided free of charge shall not include the Videogame virtual in-game currency (such as points, cash or coins, which shall be designated as “Bollars”) or in-game digital items (such as football stadium parts), as detail in the Terms of Service and Membership Terms as detailed in Section 2.2.d).
e)    Three Melons may, in its sole discretion, terminate the Program at any time. 
f)    The participation of the Beta Tester in the Program does not constitute an employment Agreement or offer of such an agreement, between him and Three Melons and that Three Melons does not ask and/or require him to work a certain number of hours, shifts, etc. as part of his participation in the Program, and that his participation in the Program is strictly voluntary and done solely for his personal enjoyment; and, further that Three Melons expects the Beta Tester only to use his leisure time to participate in the Program, and does not expect him to forego other activities, including gainful employment, during the time he spends participating in this voluntary Program. As a consequence, the Beta Tester may stop being a volunteer tester of the Videogame at any time that he wishes. 
g)    Three Melons is not providing the Beta Tester with any hardware to run Three Melons’ software or connect to Three Melons’ servers. 
h)    While the role the Beta Tester will play in helping Three Melons develop better software is helpful; it does not constitute a critical or vital role in the development of the Videogame or Beta Software such as to entitle him to claims of ownership or rights to receive any other compensation of any kind for your participation. 
i)    All Bollars acquired during the Program are non-refundable and have no monetary value. 
j)    Three Melons reserves the right to add or remove Bollars to or from the Beta Tester’s account at any time and without warning. 
k)    Three Melons reserves the right to change, add or remove points rewarded at any time and without warning. 
l)    Bollars acquired during the Program could be saved up for or used by Beta Tester in the commercial version of Bola. 
m)    All Bollars will be removed from the Beta Tester’s account before going into the next beta phase (if applicable). 
n)    Bollars acquired during the Program do not entitle the Beta Tester to any Bollars during any other beta stages (if applicable) or for the commercial release of the Videogame. 

2.2.    Obligations of Beta Tester due to his participation in the Program. The Beta Tester acknowledges, agrees, and accepts that:

a)    As part of the Program, the Beta Tester is expected to suggest changes, improvements, additions to the Videogame as well as to provide analysis of the Videogame and its features and that any such material provided to Three Melons in any form whatsoever, including but not limited to email, text messages on message boards and/or oral become the sole property of Three Melons. The foregoing materials shall be deemed Feedback as such term is defined in Section 2.3 above. The Beta Tester hereby waives any rights to the Feedback or any remuneration for the Feedback. Three Melons shall have the right (but not the obligation), at its sole discretion, to credit the Beta Tester for the Feedback and he hereby grants Three Melons a license to attribute such Feedback to the Beta Tester. 
b)    As part of the Beta Tester’s participation in the Program, it is his responsibility to report all known bugs, abuse of bugs, undocumented features or other defects and problems related to the Videogame and Beta Software to Three Melons as soon as they are found (“Bugs”). If the Beta Tester knows about a Bug or has heard about a Bug and fails to report the Bug to Three Melons, Three Melons reserves the right to treat the Beta Tester no differently from someone who abuses the Bug. The beta Tester acknowledges that Three Melons reserves the right to lock anyone caught abusing a Bug out of all Three Melons products. 
c)    At the request of Three Melons, the Beta Tester shall return to Three Melons any and all copies of the Videogame and Beta Software, in any format, delivered to him for review. The return of the material shall not affect the Beta Tester’s obligations to treat the Confidential Information disclosed to him as confidential.
d)    The participation of the Beta Tester in the Program and use of Beta Materials are also governed by Three Melons’ then current terms of service (which can be found at http://www.threemelons.com/en/termsofservice, the “Terms of Service” and may be amended from time to time by Three Melons in their sole discretion), the “Privacy Policy” as detailed in Section 5, and any other additional membership terms, end user license agreement, and code of conduct (“Bola: Membership Terms”) that are reviewed and accepted by the Beta Tester during the registration or installation process, as well as any updates thereto which Three Melons may make from time to time. 

2.3.    The Beta Tester hereby agrees to perform all of the obligations set forth in Section 2.2. in connection with the Program, which shall include, but are not limited to, the obligation: (a) to test, evaluate and analyze the Videogame and specific aspects of it as identified by Three Melons to the Beta Tester; (b) to test, evaluate and analyze other Beta Software (if applicable) and its operation, features, capabilities and performance; (c) to comply with the reasonable requests of Three Melons from time to time regarding testing; and (d) to provide feedback, analysis, suggestions and comments to Three Melons (including, but not limited to, bug reports and test results) as reasonably requested by Three Melons, or as otherwise voluntarily provided by the Beta Tester (collectively, “Feedback”). All of the Beta Tester’s feedback shall be the sole and exclusive property of Three Melons and/ or its licensors or licensees, and the Beta Tester hereby assigns all of his right, title and interest in the Feedback, and all intellectual property rights related thereto to Three Melons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Beta Tester agrees that Three Melons and/ or its licensors or licensees shall have the perpetual and irrevocable right to use, modify, and otherwise exploit all or part of the Feedback or any derivative thereof in any manner or media now known or hereafter devised without any remuneration, compensation or credit to the Beta Tester. The Beta Tester hereby represents and warrants that he has the right to enter into this Agreement and to assign and grant the rights set forth herein, and that any Feedback which is provided by the Beta Tester hereunder is original work made solely by the Beta Tester and does not infringe any third party intellectual property rights. 

2.4.    The Beta Tester acknowledges, agrees, and accepts the following Code of Conduct for the Program:

a)    The Beta Tester is privileged guests on this system and as guest, Three Melons expects him to exhibit common courtesy to all Three Melons personnel as well as other members of the Program. Three Melons will exhibit the same courtesy towards the Beta Tester.
b)    The Beta Tester will be helping Three Melons shape Bola into a great product and Three Melons values his comments/insights/etc. However, that is not a license to be rude, nasty, demanding or generally unreasonable. The Beta Tester shall remember that Three Melons will be dealing with a lot of people and, as such, a lot of differing opinions regarding what is right or wrong with the Videogame. Just because Three Melons doesn’t agree with the Beta Tester doesn’t mean Three Melons doesn't value his continued input. 
c)    Three Melons needs the Beta Tester’s feedback. The Beta Tester’s access as a beta tester for the Videogame is not a free ride. Three Melons expects something in return and that is the Beta Tester’s help. 
d)    When posting messages about the Videogame in Three Melon’s private message boards or when sending email, the Beta Tester shall try to be as professional as possible. He shall repeat the facts as accurately as he can and without undue emotionalism. Saying things like “this game is crap” is not helpful. If you like something, don't hesitate to tell us. By the same token, in case the Beta Tester doesn’t like something or think that something can be improved he shall not hesitate to tell Three Melons that as well. The Beta Tester will never be banned, punished, taken to task, etc. for speaking his mind in an open, honest and professional manner. Honest, well thought out criticism is as valuable to Three Melons as are suggestions or praise.
e)    Before posting messages publicly about the Videogame outside the Three Melons boards, the Beta Tester shall be sure he’s adhering to the confidentiality terms of this Agreement. Provided that the Beta Tester is expressly permitted to disclose the information as provided in Section 7.4, Three Melons doesn’t mind if the Beta Tester says things that are critical about the Videogame. Three Melons does not expect the Beta Tester to be mindless shills for Three Melons or for the Videogame but neither expects the Beta Tester to trash the Videogame just for the sake of trashing it. 
f)    If requested by Three Melons personnel to help test an aspect of the Videogame, the Beta Tester is kindly asked to cooperate. The sooner we Three Melons works things out, the sooner the Videogame goes LIVE. 
g)    Vulgar expressions, coarse language, abusive behavior, verbal harassment will not be tolerated either towards Three Melons personnel or other beta testers. The use of such language, whether or not the Beta Tester considers it in-character, is not acceptable, whether he uses it in casual and public speech, 'private links', contacts or even in a character's name. 
h)    Part of beta testing a product is the responsibility to report all bugs to Three Melons. Abuse of 'bugs', 'undocumented features' or other such things will not be tolerated. It is the responsibility of all players to report all problems, errors or bugs in the Videogame to Three Melons as soon as they are found. The continued use of such is contrary to Three Melons policy as such bugs/errors can damage and delay the completion of this beta test. Additionally, if the Beta Tester knows about a bug or have heard about a bug and fail to report the bug to Three Melons, he will be treated no differently from someone who abuses the bug. Three Melons reserves the right to lock anyone caught abusing a bug out of all Three Melons products forever. 
i)    The Beta Tester will not behave in any manner that is contrary to the 'spirit of the Videogame' as defined by Three Melons in its sole discretion. 
j)    The Beta Tester will not represent himself as an officer or employee, sub-contractor or somehow being connected with Three Melons or the Videogame. Three Melons reserves the right to lock anyone caught doing that out of all Three Melons products forever. 
k)    The Beta Tester acknowledges and agrees that his communications with other users, beta testers or Three Melons via chats, conferences, bulletin boards, and any other avenues of communication within Bola or as part of the Program are public and not private communications, and that the Beta Tester has no expectation of privacy concerning his use of this Videogame and participation in the Program. The Beta Tester acknowledges that personal information that he communicates within Bola or in connection with the Program may be seen and used by others and result in unsolicited communications, therefore Three Melons strongly encourages the Beta Tester not to disclose any personal information about himself in his public communications within Bola or the Program. Three Melons is not responsible for information that the Beta Tester chooses to communicate to other users within Bola or the Program, or for the actions of other users.
l)    In the unfortunate event that the Beta Tester has engaged in unacceptable behavior, he will be treated accordingly. Three Melons in its sole discretion, reserves the right to terminate the Beta Tester’s access to the Program immediately and without further notice. 

3.    BETA TESTING LICENSE.
