Certain portions of the proprietary information, processes, and/or products are provided free of charge, upon User’s registration with RMA, through the “Google Amplify” webinar (hereinafter, the “Webinar”). The remainder of the proprietary information, processes, and/or products are provided for a fee to users through the “Google Amplify” program and other related programs and services (hereinafter, the “Paid Products”), such as business coaching services, other support services, and access to non-public portions of RMA’s website and closed Facebook group.

- The term “User” shall be defined in this Agreement as the purchaser and user of RMA’s services and products, as well as any employee of such person or entity.
- The term “person” shall be defined in this Agreement as any individual person, as well as any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, sole proprietorship, and/or any other entity of any kind.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these recitals, User and RMA agree as follows:
License
- Provided that User gives the requisite consideration as set forth in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement, and on such other terms and subject to such other conditions and limitations as are set forth in this Agreement, RMA hereby grants to User a non-exclusive, non-transferable right and license to use the Webinar and Paid Products. This license may be revoked by RMA if User violates any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. In the event the license is so revoked, User shall not be entitled to a refund of any money paid to RMA.
- Limitations on use by User. User shall not directly or indirectly: (a) copy, reproduce, modify, publish, or distribute the Webinar or Paid Products, in whole or in part, to any other person; (b) grant any sublicense or any sub-authorization, assign in whole or in part, or otherwise grant or purport to grant to any person any right to obtain, use, exploit, copy, publish, or distribute the Webinar or Paid Products, in whole or in part, to any other person; or (c) display the Webinar or Paid Products, in whole or in part, on any website or publication. User shall not use the name of RMA without RMA’S prior written consent. User shall retain any and all notices, limitations, disclaimers and copyright notices attached to the Webinar and/or Paid Products, shall not alter the Paid Products, and shall not use any portion of the Webinar or Paid Products in connection with any proxy, proxy statement, proxy soliciting material, prospectus, Securities Registration Statement, or similar document without the express written consent of RMA. In accordance with the License granted in Paragraph 1, above, User will be given an account and certain login privileges on RMA’s website, as well as privileges with respect to a private Facebook group operated by RMA. User may not permit any person to have access to its account or any of its privileges unless such person is an officer or employee of User.
- In consideration for the license granted by RMA with respect to the Webinar, User agrees to register with RMA, and in consideration for the license granted by RMA with respect to the Paid Products, User agrees to pay RMA the purchase price listed on RMA’s website for the particular package of Paid Products selected by User, as well as any and all applicable federal, state, or local excise, sales, use, and/or other taxes, and User also agrees to abide by the Website Terms & Conditions, which are set forth in Part II of this Agreement. After paying the applicable purchase price for the Paid Products, User will have 30-days in which to request a refund of the purchase price. To be fair and consistent across the board, there will be no exceptions. Upon the occurrence of a refund, User’s license to use any of the Paid Products will terminate. A refund will not, however, nullify or terminate this Agreement. User will still be bound by all terms of this Agreement after a refund of the purchase price is given to User.
The goal of the Google Amplify program is to help User implement a Google strategy that results in new customers within 30 days of implementation. In order to qualify for a refund during the 30-day refund window, User must provide:

- This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, without giving effect to any conflict of law rules.

The User’s account will be reported as delinquent, which can have a negative impact on his/her credit score.

RMA Copyright Policy in accordance with the DMCA
- RMA may, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, disable and/or terminate the accounts of Users who infringe the intellectual property of others. In an effort to protect the intellectual property rights of others, RMA has adopted the following policy in accordance with Section 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) with respect to alleged copyright infringement by users of its Site and/or Group:
- Procedure for Reporting Copyright Infringements. If you believe that material residing on or accessible through the Site and/or Group infringes your copyright, you may provide RMA with a written notice of the alleged infringement to the Designated Agent listed below. The notice must include the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to permit RMA to locate the material;
- Information reasonably sufficient to permit RMA to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
- A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- Removal of Allegedly Infringing Material. Once a proper infringement notice is received by the Designated Agent, RMA may remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material. RMA will make reasonable attempts to notify the User that RMA has removed or disabled access to the material. RMA may terminate access to the Site and Group to Users who are repeat offenders.
- Counter-Notice Procedure. If a User believes that their material that was removed or to which access was disabled is not infringing upon a copyright, that User must send a counter-notice to the Designated Agent, pursuant to 512(g)(2) and (3) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The counter-notice must contain the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of the User;
- The location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
- A statement under penalty of perjury that the User has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
- The User’s name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that the User consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the User’s address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which RMA may be found, and that the User will accept service of process from the person who provided notification under subsection (c)(1)(C) or an agent of such person.
If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, RMA may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that RMA may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the User, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored after receipt of the counter-notice in accordance with the DMCA.
