TERMS

1. Game Description. The Game Services allow you to play the Game when you: (a) download and install a copy of the Game client from Daybreak's website or a designated partner site ("Download") which includes software and associated media, printed materials and/or electronic documentation; (b) log in to the Game client using your user name and password from your Magic: The Gathering Onlineaccount ("MTGO Account") via the Game Services ("Account")(MTGO Account and Account collectively referenced hereafter as your "Accounts"); and (c) utilize any software programs provided to you as an Account holder through the Game Services (together with the Download, hereinafter, "Software"). Daybreak may, at any time and in its sole discretion, discontinue your access to the Game through your Account and require you to create an account with a partner game site (e.g., territory-specific game site) in order to play the Game.

In the Game, you will receive access to a library of licensed digital objects that depict physical Magic: The Gathering trading cards ("Digital Objects"). By playing the Game, you receive a limited license for the right to use such Digital Objects solely for the purpose of playing the Game.

2. Agreement and Policies. Your use of the Game, the Game Services, your Accounts and Software are subject to this Agreement, Daybreak's Terms of Service, including the Rules of Conduct and payment provisions incorporated therein, (https://www.daybreakgames.com/terms-of-service?locale=en_US) and Daybreak’s Privacy Policy (https://www.daybreakgames.com/privacy?locale=en_US), all of which are incorporated by this reference, located on our family of websites including, without limitation, www.daybreakgames.com (“Sites” each a “Site”). Daybreak may, at any time and for any reason, update, change, add, remove, or modify (in whole or in part) this Agreement, Daybreak’s Terms of Service, Daybreak’s Privacy Policy, the Game, the Game Services and/or your accounts.

3. Eligibility.

3.1 General. The Game and Game Services are available only to individuals eighteen (18) years of age and older. If you are between the ages of thirteen (13) and eighteen (18), your parent or guardian must complete the registration process, in which case the parent or guardian will take full responsibility for all obligations under this Agreement. By clicking the "I Accept" button you represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age and are either accepting this Agreement on behalf of yourself or on behalf of your child. Your Accounts are personal to you and may not be transferred, sold or used by anyone else unless you are a parent or guardian, in which case you may permit one child to use the Account instead of yourself. Regardless, you are liable for all activities conducted through your Accounts.

3.2 Features. Some Game and Game Services features may not be available to all Accounts or Account types. Availability of certain features is determined by Account type, Account standing, and/or other eligibility restrictions. Violations of Daybreak’s Rules of Conduct set out in the Daybreak Terms of Service, of the Game’s forum rules, or this Agreement may also result in feature restrictions.

3.3 Tournaments and Events.

(a) Availability and Adjudication. The Game Services may offer many types of events, leagues, tournaments, formats, promotions, and game types. However, certain types of events, promotions, leagues, tournaments, formats, and game types may not be available in all locations or jurisdictions. By playing the Game or using the Game Services, you acknowledge and agree that Daybreak may, in its sole discretion, start, end, modify, or limit any event, league, tournament, format, promotion or game type at any time and for any reason with no liability to you. Additionally, Daybreak reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to adjudicate any game, match, tournament, or event result. In addition to compliance with the Rules of Conduct set out in the Daybreak Terms of Service (https://www.daybreakgames.com/terms-of-service?locale=en_US#section6), your participation in Game tournaments and events is subject to your compliance with the following:

(i) Bribery. Players may neither offer nor accept booster packs, rewards, or any other objects in exchange for modifying the outcome of a game or match. For example, during round two of a three round Swiss event, if player A says to player B "Concede to me for 2 tickets," this is bribery and subject to conduct action. The only exception to this is discussed in "Prize Splitting."

(ii) Prize Splitting. In the final round of an event, two players matched against each other may negotiate their match result to split whatever prizes are at stake between them, including (but not limited to) Qualifier Points and invitations. If an event cuts to a Top 8 playoff, the final round is defined as the last round of that playoff. For league events, the final round is defined as a match between players who are both in the last possible match of their current league course. Offering prizes outside those normally offered by the Game based upon the outcome of that match is still considered bribery, as is offering a prize split prior to the final round of an event.

All prize splits are done at the players' own risk, and neither Daybreak nor any party related to the Game will enforce any agreed-upon splits in any situation.

(iii) Cheating and Collusion. Players may neither exploit defects in the Game Services nor collaborate with other players in an attempt to gain an unfair competitive advantage in an event. An unfair advantage includes, but is not limited to, purposefully exploiting a game system or defect to affect the outcome of a match; purposefully exploiting a game system or defect to access information not normally available to players; or purposely collaborating with another player to access information not normally available to players.

(b) Eligibility. You are subject to all laws of the state, province and country in which you reside and from which you access the Game Services and you are solely responsible for obeying those laws. You must be physically located in a jurisdiction in which participation in the tournaments offered through the Game Services is permitted by law. You agree that Daybreak shall not be held liable if laws applicable to you restrict or prohibit your participation. Daybreak makes no representations or warranties, implicit or explicit, as to your legal right to participate in any tournament offered on or through the Game Services, nor will any person affiliated with or claiming affiliation with Daybreak have authority to make any such representations or warranties.

(d) Proof of Eligibility. Daybreak may require any participant receiving any prize to provide proof that they are eligible to participate and/or receive such prize.

(e) Taxes. It is the policy of Daybreak, in compliance with United States Internal Revenue Service regulations, to send a Form 1099 to any person who wins in excess of $600.00 USD in any given year. You remain solely responsible for paying all federal and other state taxes that apply in your state, province, and/or country of residence.

4. Contests; Promotions; Redemption Codes. The Game and Game Services may allow you to participate in contests, promotions or similar events (including, without limitation, organized play events) that may offer prizes or require you to provide additional information about yourself. Each contest, promotion or other such event may have its own rules, which you must read and agree to before you participate. Additionally, Daybreak may distribute promotional codes that you may redeem for licenses to Digital Objects ("Promotional Codes", each a "Promotional Code"). Promotional Codes may be valid for a limited time only. Some Promotional Codes may have additional terms and conditions that will govern the use and availability of such Promotional Codes. Promotional Codes are personal to you, are non-transferable, and have a value limited to $0.001 U.S.D. The use of Promotional Codes in unauthorized advertising, marketing, sweepstakes, or for other promotional purposes is strictly prohibited.

5. Streaming. Although Daybreak encourages you to stream and share Magic Onlinegameplay and content, you are solely responsible for your own content including obtaining permission from third party intellectual property owners and ensuring the content does not violate the Rules of Conduct. All videos and streams must be freely accessible and may not feature or promote competing games or services. Matches may be impacted by live streaming gameplay; if you choose to live stream your play, it is at your own risk.

6. Physical Redemption.

(a) The Game Services may provide a promotion whereby players can voluntarily terminate a portion of their limited license to redeem certain Digital Objects for a corresponding set of physical Magic: The Gathering cards ("Physical Redemption"). Physical Redemption is only available in certain markets and may only be available for specific sets as determined by Daybreak in its discretion. Available sets may change from time to time and rotate in availability. DAYBREAK MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT A CERTAIN SET WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR PHYSICAL REDEMPTION OR THAT THE PHYSICAL REDEMPTION PROMOTION WILL BE AVAILABLE TO YOU. In order to participate in the Physical Redemption program, you must: (i) obtain the right to use all of the Digital Objects in a redeemable set, where such Digital Objects are in your Accounts; (ii) ensure your Accounts have access to the Physical Redemption feature and request Physical Redemption for such redeemable set during its eligibility period as listed here: https://www.mtgo.com/en/gameinfo/products/magiconline/redemption and (iii) pay all shipping and handling and other fees assessed by Daybreak. The Digital Objects will then be removed from your Accounts and the license granted by Daybreak to you for those Digital Objects will terminate and all rights to said Digital Objects will revert to Daybreak. A partial license termination of Digital Objects may only be redeemed for physical Magic: The Gathering Cards in a full set. A "full set" means one of each card from the expansion or base set to which it relates that has been defined by Daybreak as redeemable.

(b) Daybreak reserves the right to cancel or modify the Physical Redemption program at any time including by limiting the number of sets that can be exchanged, limiting the number of Digital Objects released for use, or charging additional fees for this service. If the Physical Redemption program is canceled, Daybreak will notify you via email of such cancellation along with the last date in which you can effectuate a Physical Redemption.

7. Fees and Payments. While you may register for and you may, in some cases, be able to use some of the features of the Game free of charge, prices and fees apply to the purchase or redemption of some Game products including, without limitation, Account upgrades, Digital Objects, booster packs, theme decks, tournament packs, and tournament tickets (“Paid Content”). Daybreak describes its fees, sales policies, and billing procedures in the Terms of Service. In the event you elect to purchase Paid Content, you agree to abide by the pricing, payment, and billing policies applicable to such fees and charges contained in the Terms of Service, available at the point of purchase or otherwise posted on the Sites, including, without limitation, any applicable sub-site thereto. All fees are non-refundable, unless otherwise expressly stated for the product. Daybreak may add new Paid Content, products, and/or services for additional fees and charges, or amend fees and charges for existing products services and/or Paid Content at any time and in its sole discretion. Upon your acceptance of this Agreement, you authorize Daybreak to charge your designated payment account for any applicable fees plus taxes. If your payment cannot be processed at any time, your Accounts, and this Agreement, may be immediately terminated. The Game Services may also offer special tournament events with special features of offerings such as using specific Digital Objects or a Promotional Code for a period of time (a "Special Event"). Specific details and terms regarding a Special Event are detailed in applicable point of sale information and are incorporated by this reference. Daybreak uses third party payment providers (e.g., PayPal (https://www.paypal.com/) and Adyen (https://www.adyen.com/)) to authenticate payment. When you purchase Game products, you are not interacting with Daybreak, but rather Daybreak’s third-party partners. Please read the terms and conditions and privacy policies of applicable third-party partners to understand their terms and conditions.

You are solely responsible for reviewing the payment information section of the Daybreak Terms of Service to obtain timely notice of such changes as well as any point of sale information for a Special Event; no refunds will be given unless based upon a technical issue inherent in the Game Services or fraud (after a complete review) and only in Daybreak’s sole discretion. If any such change is unacceptable to you, you may terminate your Accounts as provided in Section 16. Your continued use of the Game and Game Services after posting of the changes to the payment information section of the Daybreak Terms of Service will indicate acceptance of such changes. You are fully liable for all charges under your Account including any unauthorized charges. In addition to any fees described herein, you are responsible for paying all applicable taxes (including, without limitation, those that we are not required to collect) and for all hardware, software, service fees and other costs you incur to access your Account and to use the Game. When you pay for any charges by credit card, you represent to Daybreak that you are the authorized user of such payment method. You agree to promptly notify Daybreak of any changes to your payment information and/or your billing address, and you agree to promptly notify Daybreak if your payment information expires or is canceled for any reason.

8. Security and Passwords. You are solely responsible and liable for all activity occurring under your Accounts. Daybreak will never ask you for your password; as such, you should never disclose your password to anyone. Although Daybreak may offer a feature that allows you to "save" or "remember" your password on your hard drive, this feature makes it possible for third parties to access your computer and thus your Accounts. Should you choose to utilize the password memory feature, it is at your own risk. Any attempt to deceive another user for the purposes of illicitly obtaining cards, passwords, account information etc. (aka "scamming") is prohibited and may result in the immediate deactivation of your Accounts.

9. Beta Releases. In the event the Game, the Game Services, your Accounts, the Download, the Software and/or the Forums (or any portions and/or features thereof) are released as "beta" releases, as designated by Daybreak (each a "Beta"), this Section 9 applies. You acknowledge and agree that a Beta may contain more or fewer features than the final release of the same or similar product that Daybreak intends to release. Daybreak may choose not to release a final release of a Beta or, if released, to alter features, specifications, capabilities, functions, licensing terms, release dates, general availability or other characteristics. You agree that Beta release versions may not be suitable for production use and may contain errors affecting proper operation and functionality.

10. Licenses. Subject to your compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Daybreak hereby grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable, revocable limited license to use the Game, Software, Game Services, Digital Objects and Game related products or services for your personal use via your Accounts for the sole purpose of playing the Game. This Agreement includes the right to trade the online Digital Objects you receive as part of the Game. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, you acknowledge and agree that you currently do not and will not acquire ownership in your Accounts and/or Digital Objects, and you further acknowledge and agree that all rights in and to the same shall forever be owned by and inure to the benefit of Daybreak (and its successors and assigns).

You grant to Daybreak a perpetual, unrestricted and irrevocable right (at no fee) to use, copy, modify, publish, perform, transmit, and display any content you submit via any media to Daybreak and waive any moral rights you may have in such content.

11. Intellectual Property Rights. Daybreak and/or its licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to the Game Services, Software, and Game related products or services, including, without limitation, all Digital Objects, and all aspects thereof (the "Daybreak Property"), notwithstanding that rights, title, and interest in and to the Game itself and all related artwork, logos, trade dress, themes, characters, character names, stories, dialog, catch phrases, locations, concepts, artwork, structural or landscape designs, animations, sounds, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, moral rights, any related documentation and user manuals, storylines, and character likeness are specifically the property of Wizards of the Coast LLC and are used by Daybreak in the Game Services and Software with explicit permissions.

The Daybreak Property is protected by the laws of the United States and international treaties, conventions and other laws. All rights are reserved. Neither this Agreement nor your Account entitles you to any subsequent releases of the Software, or to any Game products including, without limitation, online trading cards, booster packs, theme decks, tournament packs and tournament tickets. From time to time, Daybreak may release such Game products, which may be obtained for a separate fee.

12.2 Daybreak does not recognize any purported transfers or sales of Digital Objects, event tickets or other virtual assets outside of the Software. Accordingly, you are strictly prohibited from selling, gifting (except as permitted herein) or exchanging Digital Objects, event tickets or other virtual Game items for currency or other value outside of the Game.

Players may organize community sponsored events in the Game Services, but Daybreak does not recognize or sanction such events and is not liable for any issues that may occur during such an event including, without limitation, match disputes and arbitration, or prize fulfillment.

To the extent permitted by that Privacy Policy, you agree that Daybreak may communicate with you via telephone, e-mail, and any similar technology for any purpose relating to any Game(s), the Software and any services, products or software which may in the future be provided by Daybreak or on Daybreak’s behalf. Daybreak cannot ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to third parties, and Daybreak does not control other websites and/or the privacy policies of third parties. As such, different rules may apply to third parties’ use or disclosure of the personal information you disclose to Daybreak.

14. Automatic Game Communications and Monitoring.Playing the Game requires an internet connection to Daybreak's servers via the Game Services. As part of playing the Game and using the Game Services, you hereby explicitly consent to the extraction of hardware system profile data, internet connection data and any other data related to the operation of the Game, Game Services and Software through the Game Services from any computer that logs on to the Game Services using your Account.

THE DAYBREAK ENTITIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DUE TO ISP INTERRUPTIONS, SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE FAILURES, DELAYS AND/OR OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF THE INTERNET, OR FOR ANY OTHER DAMAGES BEYOND DAYBREAK'S REASONABLE CONTROL.

Subject to the below provisions of Section 20, (a) you and Daybreak agree that any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any aspect of the relationship between you and Daybreak (each, a "Dispute") asserted by you against Daybreak or by Daybreak against you shall be exclusively brought in a state or federal court in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California, and (b) you and Daybreak each submit and consent to the personal jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state and federal courts located in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California. In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding brought by you related to or arising from this Agreement, the Rules of Conduct, Daybreak’s Privacy Policy, the Game, Downloads, Accounts, the Game Services and your interactions with Daybreak be instituted more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.

20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER; NEW ZEALAND EXCEPTION

20.1 Introduction. Any Dispute, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, shall be settled through Negotiation (as defined below in Section 20.2) or Arbitration (as defined below in Section 20.3); provided, however, with respect to Excluded Disputes (as defined below in Section 20.3) that you and Daybreak are unable to settle through Negotiation, you or Daybreak may apply to the applicable court in the District of Delaware or Southern District of California to bring any such Excluded Disputes in lieu of Arbitration.

If a Dispute arises, you and Daybreak first shall attempt in good faith to resolve it promptly by Negotiation as set forth below in Section 20.2, and neither you nor Daybreak may commence Arbitration with respect to any Dispute unless you and Daybreak first have unsuccessfully pursued Negotiation as provided below in Section 20.2 (i.e., the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute in writing within the below thirty (30) day period or if either party refuses to comply with the provisions of any written Negotiation settlement). All communications, whether oral, written or electronic, in any Negotiation or Arbitration (including, without limitation, any written Negotiation settlement or Arbitration award) pursuant to this Section 20 shall be treated as confidential, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the Arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application in accordance with the above provisions of Section 19, or except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law. Notwithstanding the above provisions set forth in Section 19, (i) the Federal Arbitration Act applies to and governs the enforceability of this Section 20, and (ii) all communications, whether oral, written or electronic, in Negotiations shall also be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the Federal Rules of Evidence.

20.2 Negotiation. At any time after a Dispute arises, either you or Daybreak may initiate negotiation by providing written notice (the "Dispute Notice") to the other party as follows ("Negotiation"): (a) you shall email Dispute Notices to Daybreak to disputenotice@daybreakgames.com and (b) Daybreak shall email Dispute Notices to you to the email address that Daybreak has on file for you. The Dispute Notice shall describe the nature and basis of the Dispute and sets forth the relief sought. You and a Daybreak representative shall speak by phone and/or communicate via email at a mutually acceptable time and thereafter as often as reasonable necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. No party shall be obligated to continue to participate in Negotiation if the parties have not resolved the Dispute in writing within thirty (30) days after the non-complaining party's receipt of the Dispute Notice.

20.3 Arbitration. If you and Daybreak are unable to resolve any Dispute through Negotiation or if either you or Daybreak refuses to comply with the provisions of any written Negotiation settlement, then, except for any Excluded Disputes (as hereinafter defined), SUCH DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR ("Arbitration") INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY AND YOU AND DAYBREAK AGREE THAT YOU AND DAYBREAK ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY. As used in this Agreement, "Excluded Dispute" collectively means: (a) any Dispute relating to the infringement, misappropriation and/or other misuse of intellectual property rights other than patent rights (including, without limitation, claims seeking injunctive relief); (b) any Dispute relating to the violation, misappropriation and/or other misuse of confidential information (including, without limitation, claims seeking injunctive relief); (c) any Dispute relating to the enforcement of an Arbitration award; and/or (d) any Dispute that qualifies for small claims court.

An Arbitration is a proceeding before a neutral arbitrator, instead of before a judge or jury. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court, and provides more limited discovery. It follows different rules than court proceedings, and is subject to very limited review by courts. The arbitrator will issue a written decision and provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party.

The Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as amended by this Daybreak Terms of Service. The Consumer Arbitration Rules are available online at www.adr.org . Additionally, the arbitrator shall follow applicable state and federal law.

If you seek $10,000 or less in any Arbitration initiated by you, Daybreak agrees to reimburse your filing fee and your share of the arbitration costs, including your share of arbitrator compensation, at the conclusion of the proceeding, unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous or costs are unreasonable as determined by the arbitrator. If you seek more than $10,000 in any Arbitration initiated by you, the Arbitration costs, including arbitrator compensation, will be split between you and Daybreak according to the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and the AAA's Supplementary Procedures.

YOU AND DAYBREAK AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND YOU AND DAYBREAK ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or Daybreak that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination shall be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision will follow the terms of this Agreement and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of this Agreement, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement will preclude you or Daybreak from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against Daybreak for you or against you for Daybreak, as applicable.

Should any portion of this Section be found illegal or unenforceable, you agree that such portion shall be severed and the remainder of this Section shall be given full force and effect.
