The Client, USB key (if any), and Server are sometimes referred to in this EULA and the Code of Conduct as the "Software." The Game includes patches, updates and supplements, if any, to the original Software which we may from time to time provide or make available to you in our sole and absolute discretion.

Upon payment of any applicable license fees and online fees, this EULA grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited term license solely to use the Software to play the Game, subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA, the Code of Conduct (which is provided below and incorporated herein by this reference) and the Terms of Service (including the online subscription and payment terms) which is posted at http://www.freakycreatures.com/tos and incorporated herein by this reference.

In addition, you may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any part of the Game. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by us. 3. We reserve the right to transfer or cease the operation of the Game at any time or to terminate your license to the Software and your access to the Game at any time, without notice or refund, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, as a result of your breach of this EULA, the Code of Conduct, or the Terms of Service, if we are unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide to us, or if we discontinue offering the Game. In such event, you must immediately destroy or delete all copies of the Game and its component parts in your possession and remove the Client from your hard drive at your sole expense. 4. Abandon reserves the right to modify and update this EULA at any time provided that it gives notice to you of any changes via e-mail and/or by posting the amended EULA on http://www.freakycreatures.com/eula. Such modifications and updates shall be effective upon your first use of the Game after Abandon notifies you and makes them available for your review. Your continued use of the Software or Game after your receipt of notice that a change or update has been made to this EULA will constitute your acceptance of such change or update. 5. To access the Game, you will be required to choose names for the characters you develop. Your character name may not be contrary to the Code of Conduct or Terms of Service and may not violate anyone's rights. Certain character names may be banned by Abandon (or its licensees or licensors) from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that Abandon has the right, without any compensation or credit to you, to post and display your character name(s) and descriptions of your in-game activities within the Game or on Game-related websites and bulletin boards and in our marketing and publicity efforts for any reason, including, without limitation, in the event your access to the Game is suspended or terminated for a violation of this EULA, the Terms of Service or the Code of Conduct or to describe your character's adventures and experiences. 6. As part of your Game experience, you may be able to input language and upload content to the Game, our servers and similar areas which allow you to communicate with others in various forms, such as in the selections you make for playing the Game (for example, character names, in-game (text or voice) conversations, broadcast announcements, etc.) and in chat channels (text or voice), and to create and modify your user interface, characters, character names, game play and the like (collectively, the "Content").

However, we reserve the right to review User-Generated Content (including, without limitation, text and voice chat) and take any action we deem necessary as to such User-Generated Content, including, but not limited to, editing or removing User-Generated Content or suspending or terminating your access to the Game. With respect to any User-Generated Content, you hereby grant to Abandon, its successors and assigns, the sole and exclusive, irrevocable, sublicensable, transferable, worldwide, paid-up license to reproduce, fix, adapt, modify, translate, reformat, create derivative works from, manufacture, introduce into circulation, publish, distribute, sell, license, sublicense, transfer, rent, lease, transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, provide access electronically, broadcast, communicate to the public by telecommunication, display, perform, enter into computer memory, and use and practice the User-Generated Content, all modified and derivative works thereof, all portions and copies thereof in any form and format, and in and on whatever medium, all inventions, designs, and marks embodied therein, and all patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark and other intellectual property rights thereto, or to incorporate the same in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed, for all purposes, including, without limitation, news, advertising, promotional marketing, publicity, trade or commercial purposes, all without further notice to you and with or without attribution. To the extent permitted under applicable laws, you hereby waive any moral rights or rights of publicity or privacy you may have in the User-Generated Content. In furtherance of the foregoing, you hereby agree to execute any and all agreements or other written instruments which may be required by applicable law to give full effect to the above license or waiver, as may be applicable. 7. Except as expressly permitted by Abandon by written notice (and in such event in accordance with Abandon's specified restrictions and guidelines), you may not use any third-party software to change game play in the Game. The Game may be played only through authorized Servers maintained by Abandon or its subcontractors. You may not create or provide any other means through which the Game may be played by others, including, without limitation, through server emulators (which emulate or contain unauthorized copies of the Server). You may not take any action which imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our servers or other infrastructure. 8. All right, title, and interest, including, copyrights and other intellectual property rights in and to the Game and Content (excluding User-Generated Content, but including, without limitation, any images, photographs, animations, video, audio, music, text, and "applets" incorporated into the Game by us or our suppliers and character data), the accompanying printed materials, and any copies and derivative works thereof, are owned by Abandon or its licensors. If we provide you documentation only in electronic form, you may print one copy of such electronic documentation. You may not copy the printed materials accompanying the Software. Except as expressly permitted by Abandon in writing (and in such event in accordance with Abandon's specified restrictions and guidelines), you may not transfer, buy, sell, or auction (or offer, host, or facilitate the ability of others, to transfer, buy, sell, or auction), share, or otherwise commercially exploit, the Software or any part of the Game, account, password, characters, housing, items, credits, currency or coin or any other virtual in-game items or copyrighted, trademarked or patented material contained in or generated by the Game.

You have no interest, monetary or otherwise, in any feature or Content (other than User-Generated Content) contained in the Game. 9. You agree that we may communicate with you via the email address you provided in obtaining your subscriber account regarding any subject related to the Game (or any updates, expansion packs or sequels of the Game), this EULA or related agreements. In order to provide you with patches and updates to the Software, you agree that we may upload necessary information from your computer and computing devices, and may download the patches and updates onto your computer and computing devices. If you request any technical support from us, and we need to look at the contents of your computer or computing devices to help you, you agree to allow such access to your computer and computing devices. You understand that we may release updates, expansion packs, and sequels of the Game at any time without incurring any obligation to furnish such releases to you pursuant to this EULA. This EULA does not entitle you to any subsequent releases of the Game without paying applicable charges. 10. The Game is designed to enable "peer-to-peer" connections among users and computers for the purpose of updating the Software with minimum involvement of centralized servers. You acknowledge that when the Software is running on your computer this peer-to-peer system may: (a) utilize the processor and bandwidth of your computer for the purpose of facilitating the communication and data exchange among users; and (b) make certain information about your computer known solely to the extent necessary to establish connections with other computers in order to update the Software. You consent to the establishment of such peer-to-peer connections. Abandon may update the Game remotely, including, without limitation, the Client residing on the user's machine, without the knowledge or consent of the user, and you hereby grant to Abandon your consent to deploy and apply such updates. 11. As further set forth in the Privacy Policy referenced in Section 1 above, you agree that Abandon (or its designees) may collect personal information from you for purposes related to your use of Abandon products and services and that some personal information you provide to Abandon (or its designees) may be stored outside of the country in which you reside. 12. THE GAME IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ABANDON AND ITS PARENT, AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, LICENSORS, DISTRIBUTORS, SUBLICENSEES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, STOCKHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR SUBCONTRACTORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE "ABANDON PARTIES"), DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WITH REGARD TO THE SOFTWARE AND THE GAME. 13. ABANDON DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE GAME WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE GAME AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY GEOGRAPHIC AREA, OR THAT THE GAME WILL MEET ANY PARTICULAR CRITERIA OF PERFORMANCE OR QUALITY. 14. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ANY OR ALL ABANDON PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE, LOSS OF INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS), INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE GAME, OR THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE OR DELAY TO PROVIDE SERVER ACCESS OR RELATED SUPPORT SERVICES OR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PLAYER CHARACTERS, VIRTUAL GOODS (E.G., ARMOR, POTIONS, WEAPONS, ETC.) OR CURRENCY, ACCOUNTS, STATISTICS, OR USER STANDINGS, RANKS, OR PROFILE INFORMATION STORED BY THE GAME, EVEN IF ABANDON HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN ANY CASE, THE ABANDON PARTIES’ ENTIRE LIABILITY, AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WHERE NO EXCLUSIVE REMEDY HAS BEEN PROVIDED, AND YOUR SOLE ALTERNATE REMEDY SHOULD ANY EXCLUSIVE REMEDY HEREUNDER FAIL OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, UNDER ANY PROVISION OF THIS EULA WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE FEE FOR ONE MONTH OF ACCESS TO THE SERVER AND U.S. $5.00. BECAUSE SOME STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. 15. IN ADDITION, THE ABANDON PARTIES DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRIVACY AND INTEGRITY OF THE COMPUTER RESOURCES YOU USE TO OPERATE THE SOFTWARE. NEITHER ABANDON NOR THE OTHER ABANDON PARTIES WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DISRUPTIONS, DELAYS OR OTHER OMISSIONS IN ANY CONNECTION, DATA EXCHANGE OR OTHER INTERACTION THAT YOU MAY EXPERIENCE WHEN YOU USE THE SOFTWARE. NEITHER ABANDON NOR THE OTHER ABANDON PARTIES WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY USERS OR COMPUTERS THAT CONNECT, EXCHANGE DATA, OR OTHERWISE INTERACT WITH YOU OR YOUR COMPUTER AS A RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE. 16. YOU PROMISE THAT YOU WILL NEVER ASSERT OR BRING ANY CLAIM OR SUIT AGAINST ANY ABANDON PARTY, WHICH IS RELATED TO OR BASED ON (I) A CLAIM THAT YOU “OWN” ANY VIRTUAL GOODS IN THE GAME, (II) A CLAIM FOR THE “VALUE” OF VIRTUAL GOODS IF ABANDON DELETES THEM (AND/OR TERMINATES YOUR ACCOUNT(S)) IF YOU OR ANYONE ACTING IN CONCERT WITH YOU VIOLATES ANY PROVISION OF THIS EULA, THE GAME’S CODE OF CONDUCT, ABANDON’S TERMS OF SERVICE AND/OR ABANDON’S PRIVACY POLICY (ALL OF WHICH ARE POSTED AT A LINK AT WWW.FREAKYCREATURES.COM), (III) A CLAIM FOR THE “VALUE” OF VIRTUAL GOODS THAT YOU MAY LOSE IF ABANDON DOES ANYTHING THAT IT IS ENTITLED TO DO PURSUANT TO ANY PROVISION OF THIS EULA, THE GAME’S CODE OF CONDUCT, ABANDON’S TERMS OF SERVICE AND/OR ABANDON’S PRIVACY POLICY, OR FOR ANY MALFUNCTIONS AND/OR “BUGS” IN THE GAME, AND/OR (IV) A CLAIM THAT THE “VALUE” OF ANY VIRTUAL GOODS HAS INCREASED OR DECREASED BY VIRTUE OF ANY GAME MODIFICATION THAT ABANDON HAS MADE OR WILL MAKE. ALL OF THE ABOVE APPLIES WHETHER ON AN EXCHANGE ENABLED SERVER OR ON A NON-EXCHANGE ENABLED SERVER. 17. The Game may not be re-exported, downloaded or otherwise exported into (or to a national or resident of) any country to which the U.S. has embargoed goods, or to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Denial Orders. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any such country or on any such list. 18. This EULA is governed by the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York and the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal courts sitting in New York County, New York, unless no federal subject matter jurisdiction exists, in which case you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts sitting in New York County, New York. If the Software was acquired outside the United States, then certain provisions of local laws may be required to apply, and in such an event such laws will affect this EULA only to the extent required by such jurisdiction and this EULA will be interpreted to give maximum effect to the terms and conditions hereof. Those who choose to access the Server from locations outside of the U.S. do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws are applicable. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly disclaimed. 19. You agree to indemnify and hold the Abandon Parties harmless from and against any claim, demand, or damage, including reasonable attorneys' fees, asserted by any third party due to or arising out of your use of or conduct in the Game, and/or any violation by you of this EULA. Abandon’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and none of them shall be in limitation of any other right or remedy. Your rights and remedies in the event of any breach by Abandon of this EULA shall be limited to your right, if any, to recover money damages at law, and in no event shall you be entitled to enjoin or restrain the distribution or exhibition of the Game or any product or derivative of product of any kind based upon or adapted from the Game, or the use, publication or dissemination of any advertising in connection therewith. 20. This EULA, including the documents expressly incorporated by reference, and all updates to the same constitute the entire agreement between you and Abandon with respect to the Game, and such agreements supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, whether electronic, oral or written, between you and Abandon with respect to the Game. You represent that you have not relied on any such communications in choosing to enter into this EULA. A printed version of this EULA and of any notices given or made available to you in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. 21. Abandon's failure to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this EULA or related agreements will in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provisions, nor in any way affect the right of any party to enforce each and every such provision thereafter. The express waiver by Abandon of any provision, condition or requirement of this EULA or related agreements will not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement. Notwithstanding anything else in this EULA, no default, delay or failure to perform on the part of Abandon will be considered a breach of this EULA if such default, delay or failure to perform is shown to be due to causes beyond the reasonable control of Abandon. 22. All notices given by you or required under this EULA must be in writing and addressed to: Attn: Freaky Creatures EULA, Abandon Interactive Entertainment, LLC, 17383 Sunset Blvd., Suite A-120, Pacific Palisades, CA 90272. 23. If any part of this EULA is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of this EULA will continue in effect. 24. We may assign this EULA, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to you. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense this EULA or any of your rights or obligations hereunder. 25. Notwithstanding anything in this EULA to the contrary, you hereby acknowledge that Abandon's direct and indirect licensors and publishers are third-party beneficiaries of this EULA and have the right to bring an action directly against you for a breach of this EULA to the extent required to enforce their respective rights in the Game. 26.

Warning concerning the risks of epileptic seizures and the precautions to take when using a video game. Certain individuals may experience epileptic seizures or loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in our daily environment. These persons may experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain video games. This may be experienced by persons who have no adverse antecedent medical history or which have never experienced seizures in the past. If you have experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (seizure or loss of awareness) in the presence of light stimulations, consult your physician before using any video games. In any case, the following rules should be complied with when using a video game: (a) avoid playing if you are tired or if you lack sleep; (b) ensure that you are playing in a well lit room; and (c) when playing, take ten to fifteen minute breaks every hour. 28.
