ARTIST SESSION AGREEMENT

Meta Music Media Inc Agreement version SA26 Effective: upon Artist's acceptance at booking

DEFINITIONS

“Company” means Meta Music Media Inc, also known as M3 Studios, a Texas corporation, located at 4503 Spring Cypress Road, Suite B5, Spring, TX 77388.

“Artist” means the individual or entity signing this Agreement.

“Session” means the recording, mixing, mastering, beat production, or content production session performed by Company for Artist.

“Effective Date” means the date and time the Artist accepts this Agreement at booking, as recorded by the acceptance timestamp and order record. This Agreement takes effect as to the Artist on the Effective Date and governs the Session or Sessions in the associated order.

1. SESSION SERVICES, PAYMENT, DEPOSITS, AND CHARGEBACKS

(a) Company will perform the services indicated in the Artist's booking and order at checkout.

(b) A deposit of fifty percent (50%) of the session fee is collected at the time of booking, through the studio's booking system, to reserve the Artist's date and time. The deposit is applied toward the total session fee. The deposit is non-refundable except as expressly provided in subsections (c) through (e) below. The remaining fifty percent (50%) balance is due at or before the start of the Session. Company may decline to begin, may pause, or may end a Session for which the balance has not been paid in full.

(c) Cancellation 48 or more hours before the Session: the deposit converts to full studio credit toward a future Session. No cash refund. (d) Cancellation 24 to 48 hours before the Session: one half of the deposit converts to studio credit toward a future Session; the other half is forfeited. (e) Cancellation under 24 hours before the Session, or no-show: the deposit is forfeited in full. (f) Rescheduling is permitted up to twice per booking with at least 12 hours notice before the scheduled Session, at no charge. A reschedule request made less than 12 hours before the Session is treated as a cancellation; because that notice is under 24 hours, subsection (e) applies. (g) Once work has commenced, all sales are final, except as expressly provided in subsections (h) and (i) and except for any right that cannot be waived under applicable law. (h) Studio credit is non-transferable, has no cash value, and applies only to future Sessions; if Company discontinues the booked service or ceases operations, unredeemed credit for that service will be refunded in cash.

(i) Right to refuse or suspend service. Company reserves the right, in its sole reasonable discretion, to decline, cancel, pause, or end any booking or Session, and to refuse service to any person, where Company believes in good faith it is warranted, including for non-payment, suspected fraud, an abusive or fraudulent chargeback history, threatening, harassing, or disruptive conduct, misrepresentation of identity, or any breach of this Agreement or the studio policies in Section 7. Where Company cancels a Session for a reason other than the Artist's breach or conduct, Company will refund the amounts paid for that Session or, at the Artist's election, issue studio credit.

(j) Payment authorization and chargebacks. By booking, Artist authorizes Company and its payment processors to charge the deposit and the balance for the booked Session and any selected add-ons. Artist acknowledges that studio time is reserved and held for the Artist, that the services are performed and rendered, and that digital deliverables are non-returnable once delivered. If Artist has any concern about a charge, Artist agrees to contact Company first at info@metamusicmedia.com to resolve it before initiating any chargeback or payment dispute. Initiating a chargeback or payment dispute on services that were rendered or on deliverables that were received is a material breach of this Agreement, and Artist remains responsible for the amount charged plus any processor or representment fees and the reasonable costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the fullest extent permitted by Texas law. Artist consents to Company providing this Agreement, the acceptance and e-signature record, the booking and scheduling record, and proof of delivery to any payment processor or card network as evidence in response to a dispute. Nothing in this subsection waives any right Artist cannot waive by law, including under the federal Fair Credit Billing Act or the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act.

(k) Taxes. Fees are exclusive of any applicable sales or other taxes. Where Company is required to collect tax, that tax will be added to the amount charged and is the Artist's responsibility, other than taxes on Company's net income.

(l) Late payment. Any balance not paid when due may accrue interest at the lower of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by Texas law, and Artist is responsible for the reasonable costs of collecting any past-due amount, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent permitted by law.

Studio-of-record credit:

Only the role(s) M3 Studios actually performed apply. These are credit attributions in the recording (master) metadata. They do not change ownership of your master. M3 Studios takes no songwriting credit and no publishing interest in your composition.

3. SOUNDEXCHANGE LETTER OF DIRECTION (LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY)

By accepting this Agreement, you are separately and knowingly granting Meta Music Media Inc, also known as M3 Studios, a limited power of attorney solely to prepare, sign, file, and amend SoundExchange Letters of Direction for the sound recordings produced under this Agreement. This grant is limited to that single purpose, may be revoked by you in writing at any time as to future filings, and authorizes no other act. If you do not agree to this limited power of attorney, do not accept this Agreement and contact info@metamusicmedia.com before booking.

Company files SoundExchange Letters of Direction on Artist's behalf. Artist grants M3 Studios a limited, special power of attorney solely to prepare, sign, file, and amend SoundExchange Letters of Direction for sound recordings produced by M3 Studios. This power authorizes only the filing of such Letters of Direction. It does not authorize Company to receive, hold, withdraw, redirect, or assign any of Artist's royalties or other funds, and does not extend to any recording M3 Studios did not produce.

This Letter of Direction and the producer royalty redirect below apply ONLY to recordings produced by M3 Studios (producer credit: TUSSIN, PROD). They do NOT apply to any recording M3 Studios did not produce, including engineering-only sessions where M3 Studios only recorded, mixed, or mastered.

SoundExchange administers digital performance royalties for sound recordings under 17 U.S.C. § 114. The statutory split is 50% master rights owner, 45% featured artist, 2.5% non-featured musicians (AFM fund), and 2.5% non-featured vocalists (SAG-AFTRA fund). Producer royalties are paid through a Letter of Direction from the recording-royalty share attributable to the M3-produced master that Artist controls.

LOD authorization details:

• Producer redirect from master share, on recordings produced by M3 Studios only: three percent (3%), unless Artist and Company agree to a different percentage in writing. No redirect applies to recordings M3 Studios did not produce.
• Does not transfer master ownership.
• Does not affect Artist's featured-artist 45% share.
• Does not affect Artist's streaming, publishing, sync, mechanical, or any other income.
• Remains in effect until Artist revokes it by sixty (60) days written notice to Company and SoundExchange.
• Artist represents that Artist controls the master rights necessary to grant this direction; if Artist does not control those rights, this Section has no effect.

4. PORTFOLIO USE

Artist authorizes M3 Studios to use the recordings, mixes, masters, photographs, video, and behind-the-scenes content from the Session in Company's portfolio, demo reel, case studies, capability presentations, marketing materials, social media, and business development communications. Non-exclusive promotional use, royalty-free, worldwide.

Company is not claiming ownership of Artist's work. Artist retains all underlying rights.

Anonymization on request: before publication of any case study or marketing material that names Artist, Artist may ask Company in writing to anonymize Artist's identity using a generic descriptor. Company will honor the request.

Artist also grants Company a non-exclusive license to use Artist's name, stage name, image, likeness, voice, and biographical information in connection with the foregoing portfolio uses. This license continues during Company's ordinary portfolio use of work created in the Session; on Artist's written request, Company will stop new uses of Artist's name, image, likeness, and voice in Company-controlled marketing within a reasonable time and remove Artist from Company-controlled channels. To the extent any use of Artist's voice is treated as a biometric identifier under Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 503.001, Artist provides separate informed consent, by accepting this Agreement, to that use for the portfolio purposes described above.

5. ARTIST RIGHTS RETAINED

Nothing in this Agreement transfers, reduces, or affects:

• Artist's master recording ownership
• Artist's featured-artist royalty share (the 45% SoundExchange share)
• Artist's streaming income on any platform
• Artist's publishing rights or songwriting copyright
• Artist's sync licensing, brand deals, or advances
• Artist's mechanical or performance royalties
• Artist's merchandise income
• Any revenue stream not expressly addressed in Sections 2 and 3 above

6. ARTIST REPRESENTATIONS

Artist represents and warrants:

(a) Artist owns or has fully licensed all lyrics, beats, samples, vocals, audio, and other content delivered to Company. (b) Artist's delivery does not infringe any third-party copyright, trademark, or right of publicity. (c) Artist has the legal right to grant the licenses and credit authorization in this Agreement. (d) Artist is at least eighteen (18) years of age, or a parent/legal guardian co-signs.

(e) Beats, instrumentals, samples, and third-party material. If Artist brings, uploads, or uses any beat, instrumental, sample, loop, or composition created by anyone other than Artist, Artist is solely responsible for obtaining and paying for a valid license or clearance from the original producer, composer, or rights holder, in scope sufficient to record, reproduce, distribute, and commercially release the resulting work. M3 Studios does not source, verify, or provide those licenses and accepts no responsibility or liability for Artist's failure to properly license any third-party beat, instrumental, sample, or composition. Artist's representations and indemnification in this Section apply fully to any such third-party material.

(f) Beats produced by M3 Studios. Where M3 Studios produces a beat or instrumental for Artist, Artist's rights to that beat are governed by the order and any applicable beat license or production terms at checkout. M3 Studios retains its producer credit and the Section 3 producer royalty as stated above.

Artist shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless M3 Studios against any third-party claim arising from breach of these representations. Reciprocally, Company shall defend Artist against any third-party claim that Company's own work product, separate from Artist-delivered materials, infringes a third-party right. Company's reciprocal obligation is subject to the limitation of liability in Section 9 and is conditioned on the indemnified party promptly notifying Company of the claim, allowing Company to control the defense and settlement, and cooperating reasonably. These obligations survive termination of this Agreement.

7. STUDIO POLICIES

(a) No refunds once Session work has commenced. (b) Guests are welcome. Disruptive behavior may end the Session without refund. (c) No smoking, vaping, or controlled substances on premises. Immediate termination without refund. (d) Equipment damage caused by Artist or guests billed at replacement cost plus 25% administrative fee. (e) Session files are delivered within three (3) business days of payment in full. Company may withhold deliverables for any unpaid balance. Backup is Artist's responsibility. Master Session files are retained for thirty (30) days after delivery; the limitation of liability in Section 9 does not apply to Company's grossly negligent destruction of an Artist's sole master. (f) M3 Studios is a commercial facility inside Chelsea Business Park. (g) Premises access, assumption of risk, release of liability, and property damage are governed by Sections 9, 10, and 11 of the Terms of Service, which apply to every Session and to every guest, invitee, or accompanying person in Artist’s party. (h) Booked Session time begins at the scheduled start time. Late arrival does not extend the Session end time, and no credit is issued for booked time unused due to late arrival. Late-arrival and no-show treatment is governed by Section 8 of the Terms of Service.

8. AUTHORIZED RECIPIENT AND FILE DELIVERY

Company delivers all work product, including session files, stems, masters, mixes, mastered audio, beats, photographs, video, visual and design files, and any other deliverable, solely to the individual or entity named on this Agreement who booked and paid for the work (the “Authorized Recipient”).

Company will not release, transfer, or send any deliverable to any third party, including a manager, label, producer, collaborator, bandmate, or family member, without either (a) the Authorized Recipient’s prior written authorization naming that third party, or (b) a valid, current Power of Attorney executed under the Texas Estates Code (Tex. Est. Code § 751.001 et seq.) granting that person authority to receive the work on the Authorized Recipient’s behalf.

Company may require reasonable identity verification of the Authorized Recipient, or of any third party presenting written authorization or a Power of Attorney, before releasing any deliverable.

This provision protects the copyright owner’s exclusive rights of reproduction and distribution under 17 U.S.C. § 106 and the confidentiality of voice data under Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 503.001. Company bears no liability for declining or delaying any delivery request it cannot verify as authorized.

9. LEGAL TERMS

Warranty. COMPANY MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR ANY WARRANTY OF A SPECIFIC ARTISTIC OR COMMERCIAL RESULT. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”

Liability cap. COMPANY'S TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY ARTIST FOR THE SESSION. NO LIABILITY FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR LOST-PROFIT DAMAGES. COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO ARTIST-OWNED EQUIPMENT OR PERSONAL PROPERTY. Nothing in this Section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for gross negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, or personal injury. These limitations apply to the fullest extent permitted by law and survive termination.

Statute of limitations. The parties agree that any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services must be brought within two (2) years and one (1) day after the claim accrues, which the parties agree is the shortest limitations period permitted under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.070 (which does not permit a contractual period shorter than two years). Any claim not brought within that period is permanently barred.

Disputes. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, before a single arbitrator, seated in Houston, Texas, with hearings conducted by video or telephone at the Artist's election. Arbitration and arbitrator fees are allocated as provided by those Rules. THE PARTIES WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction in Harris County, Texas to protect intellectual property or confidential information pending arbitration. Each party bears its own attorneys' fees and costs except to the extent the arbitrator awards fees to a prevailing party as permitted by applicable Texas law.

E-SIGN. Executed via electronic signature under the federal E-SIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq., and the Texas Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Ch. 322. Company retains the executed Agreement, timestamp, IP address, and signer email for the duration of the Agreement plus seven (7) years.

Texas Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier (CUBI) notice. Voice recordings captured during the Session may be characterized as biometric data under Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 503.001. Company collects and retains voice data solely for providing the Services and the portfolio use in Section 4, and disposes of original session voice data within thirty (30) days of delivery, except for promotional material Artist has authorized for publication under Section 4.

DTSA notice (18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)(3)). An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or in a complaint or filing made under seal.

Consumer rights. Nothing in this Agreement waives any non-waivable right Artist has under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act, or limits Company's liability for its own failure to deliver the Services.

Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure to perform due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, utility or equipment failure, illness, or government action. A Session prevented by such an event will be rescheduled without penalty to either party.

Assignment. Artist may not assign this Agreement without Company's written consent. Company may assign this Agreement to a successor of its business. This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their permitted successors and assigns.

Notice. Written notice to Company under this Agreement must be sent to info@metamusicmedia.com or to 4503 Spring Cypress Road, Suite B5, Spring, TX 77388.

Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder remains in full force.

Governing law. Texas. Venue for any non-arbitration proceeding: Harris County, Texas.

No waiver. Company's failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement is not a waiver of that or any other provision, and does not limit Company's right to enforce it later.

Independent relationship. Nothing in this Agreement creates any agency, partnership, employment, or joint venture between the parties. Each party acts as an independent party.

No third-party beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the benefit of the parties only and creates no rights in any third party.

Amendment and versioning. Company may update this Agreement from time to time. The version of this Agreement accepted by the Artist at booking governs that booking and the associated Session or Sessions. Company posts the current version at metamusicmedia.com, and an updated version applies only to bookings made after it takes effect.

Survival. The provisions that by their nature should survive completion or termination of a Session survive, including the credit, SoundExchange, portfolio, representations and indemnification, payment, chargeback, tax, and legal-terms provisions.

Entire agreement. This Agreement plus Company's Terms of Service, available at metamusicmedia.com/pages/terms-of-service, constitutes the entire agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Terms of Service, this Agreement controls with respect to the Session.

ACCEPTANCE

This Agreement is accepted electronically at the time of booking. By checking the box agreeing to the Artist Session Agreement and completing checkout, Artist provides Artist's electronic signature and agrees to be bound by every term of this Agreement. Any booking or checkout checkbox that refers to the ‘M3 Studios Session Agreement,’ the ‘Session Agreement,’ or the ‘Artist Session Agreement’ refers to this Agreement. Artist’s acceptance at booking applies to the Session in the associated order and to any rescheduled date for that same order. Artist's name, email, the acceptance timestamp, and the order record on file together constitute Artist's signature and have the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under the federal E-SIGN Act (15 U.S.C. § 7001) and the Texas Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (Tex. Bus. and Com. Code Ch. 322).

If Artist is under 18, a parent or legal guardian must complete the booking and acceptance on the minor's behalf and provide their own legal name and contact information. By doing so, that person represents that they are the minor's parent or legal guardian with authority to bind the minor, agrees to this Agreement individually and on the minor's behalf as a principal obligor jointly and severally liable for all obligations, grants the licenses in Section 4 with respect to the minor, and agrees not to disaffirm this Agreement on the basis of the minor's age. Company may require proof of guardianship before performing or delivering. Unless Company waives the requirement in writing, the parent or legal guardian who accepts this Agreement for a minor must be present on the premises during the minor’s Session, as provided in Section 24(b)(ii) of the Terms of Service.
