By downloading or using this software or any related content, you are agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not or cannot agree to the terms of this Agreement, please do not download or use this software or any related content.
Certain words or phrases are defined to have certain meanings when used in this Agreement. Those words and phrases are defined below in Section 25.
If your primary residence (or primary place of business, if you are a legal entity like a corporation or an academic institution) is inside or outside the United Kingdom, your agreement is with Painting Practice Ltd.
1. License Grant
Painting Practice grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except as described in this Agreement) license to use, reproduce, display, and perform the Licensed Technology for any lawful purpose (the “License”). However, the rights that Painting Practice grants you under the License are subject to the terms of this Agreement, and you may only make use of the License if you comply with all applicable terms.
The License becomes effective on the date you accept this Agreement or download Plan V or any Content. The License does not grant you any title or ownership in the Licensed Technology.
(A) Allowed forms of Distribution and Sublicensing
There is no restriction on your Distribution of a Product made using the Licensed Technology that does not include any Plan V or any Paid Content Distributed in uncooked source format (in each case, including as modified by you under the License) and does not require any Licensed Technology (including as modified by you under the License) to run (“Unrestricted Products”). For clarity, the foregoing does not constitute a license under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise.
You may only Distribute the Licensed Technology as follows:
a. Distribution to end users - You may Distribute the Licensed Technology incorporated in object code format only as an inseparable part of a Product to end users who are subject to an end user license agreement which explicitly disclaims any representations, warranties, conditions, and liabilities related to the Licensed Technology. The Product may not contain any Paid Content Distributed in uncooked source format or any Plan V Tools.
b. Distributions to employees and contractors - You also may Distribute Content (other than Paid Plug-ins) to a Plan V Licensee who is your employee or your contractor who does not have rights under their license to the same Content, but only to permit that Plan V Licensee to utilize that Content in good faith to develop a Product on your behalf for Distribution by you under the License, and not for the purpose of Content pooling or any other Distribution or sub-licensing of Content that is not permitted under this Agreement. Recipients of such a Distribution have a limited license to use, reproduce, display, perform, and modify that Content to develop your Product as outlined above, and for no other purpose.
d. Distribution of Paid Plug-ins - You may Distribute Paid Plug-ins to each of your Paid Plug-in Users so that they may use those Paid Plug-ins on your behalf under the License.
e. Distribution and sublicensing of Examples - You may Distribute or sublicense Examples (including as modified by you under the License) in Source Code or object code format to any third party. However, the rights in this Section 1(e) do not expand or modify your limited Distribution and sublicensing rights for Plan V Code and Content (including as modified by you under the License) that are not Examples.
f. You may not Distribute an integration of a programming language other than C++ for the Licensed Technology.
You are not permitted to post snippets of Plan V Code online or any type of public forums.
You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology in Source Code format. You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology in object code format, or any Content, except to grant end users the ability to use, or to permit your publishers and distributors to market and Distribute, a Product that you Distribute as permitted in Section 1(a) above. This paragraph does not limit your rights to Distribute and sublicense Examples.
When you generate revenue from a Product or Distribute it to end users, you must provide Painting Practice with advance notification at plan-, as early as reasonably possible, including the name of the Product, the format of distribution, unique Product id (where applicable), and the distribution channel(s).
(B) Other Restrictions
(i) Plan V-Only Content
For Plan V-Only Content, you may exercise your rights under the License only if and to the extent that the Plan V -Only Content is utilized in a Product that requires Plan V Code to operate or is a non-interactive linear media product (e.g., broadcast or streamed video files, cartoons, movies, or images) rendered using Plan V Code. The Plan V -Only Content is subject to all of the terms of this Agreement that apply to Content, as well as the additional limitations described in this paragraph. All references in this paragraph to Plan V -Only Content include modified versions thereof made by you under the License.
(ii) Non-Compatible Licenses
You may not combine, Distribute, or otherwise use the Licensed Technology with any code or other content which is covered by a license that would directly or indirectly require that all or part of the Licensed Technology be governed under any terms other than those of this Agreement (“Non-Compatible License”). Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are prohibited: GNU General Public License (GPL), Lesser GPL (LGPL) (unless you are merely dynamically linking a shared library), or Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License. Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are allowed: BSD License, MIT License, Microsoft Public License, or Apache License. You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology under a Non-Compatible License.
(iii) General Restrictions
You may not engage in any activity with respect to the Licensed Technology, including as incorporated into a Product, (1) in violation of any applicable law or regulation; (2) in which the Licensed Technology is rented or leased; (3) that misappropriates any of Plan V’s other products or services; (4) in support of a claim by you or any third party that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent. You also may not sell or grant a security interest in the Licensed Technology.
2. User License
The Licensed Technology is licensed to you for use by a single User (other than Paid Plug-ins, which may also be used by your Paid Plug-in Users as described below). The User may store the Licensed Technology on any of the User’s computers, but the Licensed Technology cannot be shared with others (including any other employees or agents) except through a permitted Distribution as described above.
In order to access and download the Plan V and Content, you must set up an Account. You may not share or allow others to use your Account. You are responsible for the security of your Account.
Under the License, the User may use the Licensed Technology for as long as you comply with this Agreement. If you are a legal entity, references to “you” in this agreement also apply to the User in all cases. You are responsible for the User’s compliance with this Agreement.
For Paid Plug-ins, in addition to use by a single User, each Paid Plug-in User with respect to whom you have paid the associated fee may store the Paid Plug-in on any of the Paid Plug-in User’s computers and may use the Paid Plug-in on your behalf under the License, but the Paid Plug-in cannot be otherwise shared with others except through a permitted Distribution as described above. You are responsible for each Paid Plug-in User’s compliance with this Agreement.
If you are an Academic Institution, your use is not limited to a single User for any Licensed Technology other than Paid Content. Instead, you may store that Licensed Technology on any of your computers, and you may allow all users of those computers to use that Licensed Technology under the License. However, those users are not authorized under your License to Distribute or sublicense the Licensed Technology (including as incorporated in a Product) or to use Plan V and/or the Content commercially. For that, they must obtain a License of their own.
3. New Versions and Content
During the term of your License, you will be entitled to access future Versions of Plan V and new Content that Painting Practice chooses to make available to you. Painting Practice does not have any obligation to make new Versions of Plan V or new Content available. Nor does Painting Practice have any obligation to continue to make available for access or download any or all Versions of Plan V or Content. However, any Versions of the Plan V and Content that Painting Practice has made available to you, and for which you have accepted any applicable amendment to this Agreement as described in Section 22, are considered part of the Licensed Technology and may be used under the License (as amended by that amendment).
4. Paid Content
Painting Practice may make Paid Content available to you for a fee. Your License to Paid Content is subject to your payment of the associated fee. In addition, your Paid Plug-in Users’ use of any Paid Plug-in under the License is subject to your payment of the associated fee for each Paid Plug-in User for that Paid Plug-in. When you pay the fee to obtain Paid Content, you are purchasing from Painting Practice the right to have your License include that Paid Content. Regardless of any references Painting Practice may make outside this Agreement to purchasing or selling Paid Content, Paid Content is licensed, not sold, to you under the License.
When you provide payment information to Painting Practice or its authorized processor, you represent that you are an authorized user of the payment card, PIN, key, account, or other payment method specified by you, and you authorize Painting Practice to charge such payment method for the full amount of the transaction.
From time to time, Painting Practice may display links to Third Party Licensor Content on the Marketplace. Painting Practice does not license or provide Third Party Licensor Content to you under this Agreement. Any use of Third Party Licensor Content requires you to enter into a separate license agreement directly with the provider of the Third Party Licensor Content. The terms of your license agreement with the provider of the Third Party Licensor Content will govern all matters related to your use of Third Party Licensor Content rather than the terms of this Agreement.
5. Royalty
You agree to pay Painting Practice a royalty equal to 5% of all worldwide gross revenue actually attributable to each Product, regardless of whether that revenue is received by you or any other person or legal entity, as follows:
a. Gross revenue resulting from any and all sales of a Product to end users through any and all media, including but not limited to digital and retail;
b. Gross revenue resulting from any and all in-app purchases, downloadable content, microtransactions, subscriptions, sale, transfer, or exchange of content created by end users for use with a Product, or redemption of virtual currency, either within a Product or made externally but which directly affect the operation of the Product;
c. Gross revenue from any Kickstarter or other crowdfunding campaign which is directly associated with Product access or in-Product benefit (e.g., in a multi-tiered campaign, if an amount is established in an early tier solely for Product access, your royalty obligation will apply to that amount for each backer with the same access, but not on additional amounts in higher tiers based on ancillary benefits);
d. Your revenue from in-app advertising and affiliate programs;
e. Revenue from advance payments for a Product (from a publisher or otherwise);
f. Revenue received in connection with a Product’s inclusion in a streaming, subscription, or other game-delivery service (e.g., Apple Arcade, Microsoft GamePass, or any similar or successor services), including without limitation development funds and bonuses; and
g. Revenue in any other form actually attributable to a Product (unless excluded below).
However, no royalty is owed on the following forms of revenue:
1. The first £3,000.00 in gross revenue for each Product per calendar quarter;
2. The first £5,000,000.00 in gross revenue for each Product built in Virtual Reality.
3. Consulting fees or work-for-hire fees which are non-recoupable for services performed using the Licensed Technology (e.g., an architect-created walkthrough simulation or a contractor-developed in-house training simulator);
4. Revenue from an Unrestricted Product, including for clarity, revenue from a Product which solely relies on the Licensed Technology for production of non-interactive linear media (e.g., broadcast or streamed video files, cartoons, or movies) and which is Distributed in a form that does not contain the Licensed Technology or, in order to deliver, rely on servers running the Licensed Technology;
5. Revenue from a Product which is only Distributed to Plan V Licensees (such as through the Marketplace);
6. Revenue from ancillary products which are not software and which do not contain embedded information (such as QR codes) which affects the operation of the Product (e.g., comic books, soundtracks, apparel);
7. Financial winnings generated by awards for the Product;
8. Revenue from donations for a Product which are not tied to Product access or in-Product benefits;
9. Revenue from Location-Based Experiences, such as interactive amusement park rides, coin-op arcades, or VR experiences, which use the Licensed Technology; and
10. Revenue collected from an end-user buyer of in-game items or other in-game content for your Product which is sold by an end-user seller and which is actually paid to the end-user seller and is not retained by you or any other party.
The royalty is based on gross revenue from end users, regardless of whether you sell your Product to end users directly, self-publish via the App Store or any similar store, or work with a publisher. The following simplified example illustrates the application of the royalty to gross sales: if your Product earns £10 on the App Store, Apple may pay you £7 (having deducted 30% as a distribution fee), but your royalty to Painting Practice would still be 5% of £10 (or £0.50).
Royalties that you pay on an advance payment of revenue for a Product that is recoupable by the payer, such as a publisher, may be credited against future royalty payments that you incur under this Agreement for that Product.
Royalties must be reported and paid on a per-Product basis. The £3,000 per Product per calendar quarter royalty exemption may not be aggregated across multiple Products.
Within 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter in which a Product earns revenue outside of the above-listed royalty exclusions, you must pay to Painting Practice the full amount of the royalty due for that quarter and send Painting Practice a royalty report on a per Product basis. Detailed information on royalty reporting and payment can be found at
The royalty will be payable under this Agreement with respect to each Product for as long as Plan V or Content (including as modified by you under the License) incorporated in or used to make the Product are protected under copyright or other applicable intellectual property law.
6. Payments
Painting Practice reserves the right to charge a 2% late fee, per calendar quarter (compounding), for any amounts unpaid after the required due date.
You are responsible for all taxes on all payments required to be made by you under this Agreement (other than taxes that Painting Practice is obligated to pay on its income, which are Painting Practice’s responsibility). If you are required by a government agency to reduce your payment to Painting Practice for any reason, you are required to provide sufficient documentation to Painting Practice supporting the withholding.
7. Records and Audits
You agree to keep accurate books and records related to your development, manufacture, Distribution, and sale of Products and related revenue. Painting Practice may conduct reasonable audits of those books and records. Audits will be conducted during business hours on reasonable prior notice to you. Painting Practice will bear the costs of audits unless the results show a shortfall in payments in excess of 5% during the period audited, in which case you will be responsible for the cost of the audit.
8. Support
Painting Practice does not have any support obligations with respect to the Licensed Technology under this Agreement. Support resources may be obtained at
9. Feedback and Contributions
If you provide Painting Practice with any Feedback, Painting Practice is free to use the Feedback however it chooses. If you make any Contribution available to Painting Practice, you hereby assign to Painting Practice all right, title, and interest (including all copyright, patent, and other intellectual property rights) in that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country. If any of those rights are not effectively assigned under applicable law, you hereby grant Painting Practice a non-exclusive, fully-paid, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable license to reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, make, use, have made, sell, offer to sell, import, modify and make derivative works based on, and otherwise exploit that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country. If any of those rights may not be assigned or licensed under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert all of those rights. However, you may continue to freely use any Feedback that you provide to Painting Practice, and you may continue to use, in any manner consistent with the License, any Contribution that you make available to Painting Practice.
You understand and agree that Painting Practice is not required to make any use of any Feedback or Contribution that you provide. You agree that if Painting Practice makes use of your Feedback or Contribution, Painting Practice is not required to credit or compensate you for your contribution.
You represent and warrant that you have sufficient rights in any Feedback or Contribution that you provide to Painting Practice to grant Painting Practice and other affected parties the rights described above. This includes but is not limited to intellectual property rights and other proprietary or personal rights.
10. Third Party Software
Plan V includes Third Party Software components. If Third Party Software has separate software license or attribution requirements, the license terms or other attribution requirements for Third Party Software components can be found in the installation directory for each Plan V version (under the /PlanV/Source/ThirdParty/Licenses sub-folder). By entering into this Agreement and using Third Party Software, you are accepting the terms of those licenses. In this case, the Third Party Software terms will govern your use of the Third Party Software, and if there is inconsistency, those terms will take precedence over the terms of the License for the Third Party Software. You agree that the owners of the Third Party Software are intended third party beneficiaries to this Agreement in relation to your uses of Third Party Software.
11. Ownership
Painting Practice or its licensors own all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in Plan V and Content. You own all rights in the Products you develop under the License, other than Plan V and Content, Third Party Software, and any Contributions. All rights granted to you under this Agreement are granted by express license only and not by sale, and all of those rights are limited by the terms of this Agreement. No license or other rights will be created hereunder by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. Any attempted sublicense under this Agreement that is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement will be null and void.
12. Proprietary Notices and Attribution
You agree to retain and reproduce in all copies of the Licensed Technology the copyright, trademark, and other proprietary notices and disclaimers of Painting Practice and third parties as they appear in Plan V and the Content.

“[Product name] uses Plan V®. Plan V® is a trademark or registered trademark of Painting Practice Ltd. in the United Kingdom and elsewhere”
“Plan V®, Copyright 2019 – xxxx, Painting Practice Ltd. All rights reserved.”
No other license or right in the Painting Practice Trademarks is granted under this Agreement. All use of the Painting Practice Trademarks will insure to the sole benefit of Painting Practice. You agree not to engage in any activity that could tarnish, dilute, or affect the validity or enforceability of Painting Practice Trademarks or cause consumer confusion or diminish any goodwill relating to any Painting Practice Trademarks.

Painting Practice may use your trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos used with any Product, as well as publicly released screen shots and video content from the Product, in connection with Painting Practice’s marketing, advertisement, and promotion of the Plan V® in any and all media without restriction.
13. Hardware and Usage Data
You acknowledge that, as a default setting, Plan V will collect and send to Painting Practice anonymous hardware and usage data from end users of Products. This functionality is used by Painting Practice to improve Plan V. You may modify the Plan V under the License to turn off that functionality in your Product.
14. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The Licensed Technology, the Marketplace, and all other materials and information provided by Painting Practice (the “Painting Practice Materials”) are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind. Painting Practice, its licensors, and its and their affiliates disclaim all warranties, conditions, common law duties, and representations (express, implied, oral, and written) with respect to the Painting Practice Materials, including without limitation all express, implied, and statutory warranties and conditions of any kind, such as title, non-interference with your enjoyment, authority, non-infringement, merchantability, fitness or suitability for any purpose (whether or not Painting Practice knows or has reason to know of that purpose), system integration, accuracy or completeness, results, reasonable care, workmanlike effort, lack of negligence, and lack of viruses, whether alleged to arise under law, by reason of custom or usage in the trade, or by course of dealing.

These limitations and exclusions regarding damages apply even if any remedy fails to provide adequate compensation.

1. License Grant
Painting Practice grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except as described in this Agreement) license to use, reproduce, display, and perform the Licensed Technology for any lawful purpose (the “License”). However, the rights that Painting Practice grants you under the License are subject to the terms of this Agreement, and you may only make use of the License if you comply with all applicable terms.
The License becomes effective on the date you accept this Agreement or download Plan V or any Content. The License does not grant you any title or ownership in the Licensed Technology.
(A) Allowed forms of Distribution and Sublicensing
There is no restriction on your Distribution of a Product made using the Licensed Technology that does not include any Plan V or any Paid Content Distributed in uncooked source format (in each case, including as modified by you under the License) and does not require any Licensed Technology (including as modified by you under the License) to run (“Unrestricted Products”). For clarity, the foregoing does not constitute a license under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise.
You may only Distribute the Licensed Technology as follows:
a. Distribution to end users - You may Distribute the Licensed Technology incorporated in object code format only as an inseparable part of a Product to end users who are subject to an end user license agreement which explicitly disclaims any representations, warranties, conditions, and liabilities related to the Licensed Technology. The Product may not contain any Paid Content Distributed in uncooked source format or any Plan V Tools.
b. Distributions to employees and contractors - You also may Distribute Content (other than Paid Plug-ins) to a Plan V Licensee who is your employee or your contractor who does not have rights under their license to the same Content, but only to permit that Plan V Licensee to utilize that Content in good faith to develop a Product on your behalf for Distribution by you under the License, and not for the purpose of Content pooling or any other Distribution or sub-licensing of Content that is not permitted under this Agreement. Recipients of such a Distribution have a limited license to use, reproduce, display, perform, and modify that Content to develop your Product as outlined above, and for no other purpose.
d. Distribution of Paid Plug-ins - You may Distribute Paid Plug-ins to each of your Paid Plug-in Users so that they may use those Paid Plug-ins on your behalf under the License.
e. Distribution and sublicensing of Examples - You may Distribute or sublicense Examples (including as modified by you under the License) in Source Code or object code format to any third party. However, the rights in this Section 1(e) do not expand or modify your limited Distribution and sublicensing rights for Plan V Code and Content (including as modified by you under the License) that are not Examples.
f. You may not Distribute an integration of a programming language other than C++ for the Licensed Technology.
You are not permitted to post snippets of Plan V Code online or any type of public forums.
You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology in Source Code format. You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology in object code format, or any Content, except to grant end users the ability to use, or to permit your publishers and distributors to market and Distribute, a Product that you Distribute as permitted in Section 1(a) above. This paragraph does not limit your rights to Distribute and sublicense Examples.
When you generate revenue from a Product or Distribute it to end users, you must provide Painting Practice with advance notification at plan-, as early as reasonably possible, including the name of the Product, the format of distribution, unique Product id (where applicable), and the distribution channel(s).
(B) Other Restrictions
(i) Plan V-Only Content
For Plan V-Only Content, you may exercise your rights under the License only if and to the extent that the Plan V -Only Content is utilized in a Product that requires Plan V Code to operate or is a non-interactive linear media product (e.g., broadcast or streamed video files, cartoons, movies, or images) rendered using Plan V Code. The Plan V -Only Content is subject to all of the terms of this Agreement that apply to Content, as well as the additional limitations described in this paragraph. All references in this paragraph to Plan V -Only Content include modified versions thereof made by you under the License.
(ii) Non-Compatible Licenses
You may not combine, Distribute, or otherwise use the Licensed Technology with any code or other content which is covered by a license that would directly or indirectly require that all or part of the Licensed Technology be governed under any terms other than those of this Agreement (“Non-Compatible License”). Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are prohibited: GNU General Public License (GPL), Lesser GPL (LGPL) (unless you are merely dynamically linking a shared library), or Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License. Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are allowed: BSD License, MIT License, Microsoft Public License, or Apache License. You may not sublicense the Licensed Technology under a Non-Compatible License.
(iii) General Restrictions
You may not engage in any activity with respect to the Licensed Technology, including as incorporated into a Product, (1) in violation of any applicable law or regulation; (2) in which the Licensed Technology is rented or leased; (3) that misappropriates any of Plan V’s other products or services; (4) in support of a claim by you or any third party that the Licensed Technology infringes a patent. You also may not sell or grant a security interest in the Licensed Technology.
2. User License
The Licensed Technology is licensed to you for use by a single User (other than Paid Plug-ins, which may also be used by your Paid Plug-in Users as described below). The User may store the Licensed Technology on any of the User’s computers, but the Licensed Technology cannot be shared with others (including any other employees or agents) except through a permitted Distribution as described above.
In order to access and download the Plan V and Content, you must set up an Account. You may not share or allow others to use your Account. You are responsible for the security of your Account.
Under the License, the User may use the Licensed Technology for as long as you comply with this Agreement. If you are a legal entity, references to “you” in this agreement also apply to the User in all cases. You are responsible for the User’s compliance with this Agreement.
For Paid Plug-ins, in addition to use by a single User, each Paid Plug-in User with respect to whom you have paid the associated fee may store the Paid Plug-in on any of the Paid Plug-in User’s computers and may use the Paid Plug-in on your behalf under the License, but the Paid Plug-in cannot be otherwise shared with others except through a permitted Distribution as described above. You are responsible for each Paid Plug-in User’s compliance with this Agreement.
If you are an Academic Institution, your use is not limited to a single User for any Licensed Technology other than Paid Content. Instead, you may store that Licensed Technology on any of your computers, and you may allow all users of those computers to use that Licensed Technology under the License. However, those users are not authorized under your License to Distribute or sublicense the Licensed Technology (including as incorporated in a Product) or to use Plan V and/or the Content commercially. For that, they must obtain a License of their own.
3. New Versions and Content
During the term of your License, you will be entitled to access future Versions of Plan V and new Content that Painting Practice chooses to make available to you. Painting Practice does not have any obligation to make new Versions of Plan V or new Content available. Nor does Painting Practice have any obligation to continue to make available for access or download any or all Versions of Plan V or Content. However, any Versions of the Plan V and Content that Painting Practice has made available to you, and for which you have accepted any applicable amendment to this Agreement as described in Section 22, are considered part of the Licensed Technology and may be used under the License (as amended by that amendment).
4. Paid Content
Painting Practice may make Paid Content available to you for a fee. Your License to Paid Content is subject to your payment of the associated fee. In addition, your Paid Plug-in Users’ use of any Paid Plug-in under the License is subject to your payment of the associated fee for each Paid Plug-in User for that Paid Plug-in. When you pay the fee to obtain Paid Content, you are purchasing from Painting Practice the right to have your License include that Paid Content. Regardless of any references Painting Practice may make outside this Agreement to purchasing or selling Paid Content, Paid Content is licensed, not sold, to you under the License.
When you provide payment information to Painting Practice or its authorized processor, you represent that you are an authorized user of the payment card, PIN, key, account, or other payment method specified by you, and you authorize Painting Practice to charge such payment method for the full amount of the transaction.
From time to time, Painting Practice may display links to Third Party Licensor Content on the Marketplace. Painting Practice does not license or provide Third Party Licensor Content to you under this Agreement. Any use of Third Party Licensor Content requires you to enter into a separate license agreement directly with the provider of the Third Party Licensor Content. The terms of your license agreement with the provider of the Third Party Licensor Content will govern all matters related to your use of Third Party Licensor Content rather than the terms of this Agreement.
5. Royalty
You agree to pay Painting Practice a royalty equal to 5% of all worldwide gross revenue actually attributable to each Product, regardless of whether that revenue is received by you or any other person or legal entity, as follows:
a. Gross revenue resulting from any and all sales of a Product to end users through any and all media, including but not limited to digital and retail;
b. Gross revenue resulting from any and all in-app purchases, downloadable content, microtransactions, subscriptions, sale, transfer, or exchange of content created by end users for use with a Product, or redemption of virtual currency, either within a Product or made externally but which directly affect the operation of the Product;
c. Gross revenue from any Kickstarter or other crowdfunding campaign which is directly associated with Product access or in-Product benefit (e.g., in a multi-tiered campaign, if an amount is established in an early tier solely for Product access, your royalty obligation will apply to that amount for each backer with the same access, but not on additional amounts in higher tiers based on ancillary benefits);
d. Your revenue from in-app advertising and affiliate programs;
e. Revenue from advance payments for a Product (from a publisher or otherwise);
f. Revenue received in connection with a Product’s inclusion in a streaming, subscription, or other game-delivery service (e.g., Apple Arcade, Microsoft GamePass, or any similar or successor services), including without limitation development funds and bonuses; and
g. Revenue in any other form actually attributable to a Product (unless excluded below).
However, no royalty is owed on the following forms of revenue:
1. The first £3,000.00 in gross revenue for each Product per calendar quarter;
2. The first £5,000,000.00 in gross revenue for each Product built in Virtual Reality.
3. Consulting fees or work-for-hire fees which are non-recoupable for services performed using the Licensed Technology (e.g., an architect-created walkthrough simulation or a contractor-developed in-house training simulator);
4. Revenue from an Unrestricted Product, including for clarity, revenue from a Product which solely relies on the Licensed Technology for production of non-interactive linear media (e.g., broadcast or streamed video files, cartoons, or movies) and which is Distributed in a form that does not contain the Licensed Technology or, in order to deliver, rely on servers running the Licensed Technology;
5. Revenue from a Product which is only Distributed to Plan V Licensees (such as through the Marketplace);
6. Revenue from ancillary products which are not software and which do not contain embedded information (such as QR codes) which affects the operation of the Product (e.g., comic books, soundtracks, apparel);
7. Financial winnings generated by awards for the Product;
8. Revenue from donations for a Product which are not tied to Product access or in-Product benefits;
9. Revenue from Location-Based Experiences, such as interactive amusement park rides, coin-op arcades, or VR experiences, which use the Licensed Technology; and
10. Revenue collected from an end-user buyer of in-game items or other in-game content for your Product which is sold by an end-user seller and which is actually paid to the end-user seller and is not retained by you or any other party.
The royalty is based on gross revenue from end users, regardless of whether you sell your Product to end users directly, self-publish via the App Store or any similar store, or work with a publisher. The following simplified example illustrates the application of the royalty to gross sales: if your Product earns £10 on the App Store, Apple may pay you £7 (having deducted 30% as a distribution fee), but your royalty to Painting Practice would still be 5% of £10 (or £0.50).
Royalties that you pay on an advance payment of revenue for a Product that is recoupable by the payer, such as a publisher, may be credited against future royalty payments that you incur under this Agreement for that Product.
Royalties must be reported and paid on a per-Product basis. The £3,000 per Product per calendar quarter royalty exemption may not be aggregated across multiple Products.
Within 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter in which a Product earns revenue outside of the above-listed royalty exclusions, you must pay to Painting Practice the full amount of the royalty due for that quarter and send Painting Practice a royalty report on a per Product basis. Detailed information on royalty reporting and payment can be found at
The royalty will be payable under this Agreement with respect to each Product for as long as Plan V or Content (including as modified by you under the License) incorporated in or used to make the Product are protected under copyright or other applicable intellectual property law.
6. Payments
Painting Practice reserves the right to charge a 2% late fee, per calendar quarter (compounding), for any amounts unpaid after the required due date.
You are responsible for all taxes on all payments required to be made by you under this Agreement (other than taxes that Painting Practice is obligated to pay on its income, which are Painting Practice’s responsibility). If you are required by a government agency to reduce your payment to Painting Practice for any reason, you are required to provide sufficient documentation to Painting Practice supporting the withholding.
7. Records and Audits
You agree to keep accurate books and records related to your development, manufacture, Distribution, and sale of Products and related revenue. Painting Practice may conduct reasonable audits of those books and records. Audits will be conducted during business hours on reasonable prior notice to you. Painting Practice will bear the costs of audits unless the results show a shortfall in payments in excess of 5% during the period audited, in which case you will be responsible for the cost of the audit.
8. Support
Painting Practice does not have any support obligations with respect to the Licensed Technology under this Agreement. Support resources may be obtained at
9. Feedback and Contributions
If you provide Painting Practice with any Feedback, Painting Practice is free to use the Feedback however it chooses. If you make any Contribution available to Painting Practice, you hereby assign to Painting Practice all right, title, and interest (including all copyright, patent, and other intellectual property rights) in that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country. If any of those rights are not effectively assigned under applicable law, you hereby grant Painting Practice a non-exclusive, fully-paid, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable license to reproduce, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, make, use, have made, sell, offer to sell, import, modify and make derivative works based on, and otherwise exploit that Contribution for all current and future methods and forms of exploitation in any country. If any of those rights may not be assigned or licensed under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert all of those rights. However, you may continue to freely use any Feedback that you provide to Painting Practice, and you may continue to use, in any manner consistent with the License, any Contribution that you make available to Painting Practice.
You understand and agree that Painting Practice is not required to make any use of any Feedback or Contribution that you provide. You agree that if Painting Practice makes use of your Feedback or Contribution, Painting Practice is not required to credit or compensate you for your contribution.
You represent and warrant that you have sufficient rights in any Feedback or Contribution that you provide to Painting Practice to grant Painting Practice and other affected parties the rights described above. This includes but is not limited to intellectual property rights and other proprietary or personal rights.
10. Third Party Software
Plan V includes Third Party Software components. If Third Party Software has separate software license or attribution requirements, the license terms or other attribution requirements for Third Party Software components can be found in the installation directory for each Plan V version (under the /PlanV/Source/ThirdParty/Licenses sub-folder). By entering into this Agreement and using Third Party Software, you are accepting the terms of those licenses. In this case, the Third Party Software terms will govern your use of the Third Party Software, and if there is inconsistency, those terms will take precedence over the terms of the License for the Third Party Software. You agree that the owners of the Third Party Software are intended third party beneficiaries to this Agreement in relation to your uses of Third Party Software.
11. Ownership
Painting Practice or its licensors own all title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in Plan V and Content. You own all rights in the Products you develop under the License, other than Plan V and Content, Third Party Software, and any Contributions. All rights granted to you under this Agreement are granted by express license only and not by sale, and all of those rights are limited by the terms of this Agreement. No license or other rights will be created hereunder by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. Any attempted sublicense under this Agreement that is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement will be null and void.
12. Proprietary Notices and Attribution
You agree to retain and reproduce in all copies of the Licensed Technology the copyright, trademark, and other proprietary notices and disclaimers of Painting Practice and third parties as they appear in Plan V and the Content.

“[Product name] uses Plan V®. Plan V® is a trademark or registered trademark of Painting Practice Ltd. in the United Kingdom and elsewhere”
“Plan V®, Copyright 2019 – xxxx, Painting Practice Ltd. All rights reserved.”
No other license or right in the Painting Practice Trademarks is granted under this Agreement. All use of the Painting Practice Trademarks will insure to the sole benefit of Painting Practice. You agree not to engage in any activity that could tarnish, dilute, or affect the validity or enforceability of Painting Practice Trademarks or cause consumer confusion or diminish any goodwill relating to any Painting Practice Trademarks.

Painting Practice may use your trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos used with any Product, as well as publicly released screen shots and video content from the Product, in connection with Painting Practice’s marketing, advertisement, and promotion of the Plan V® in any and all media without restriction.
13. Hardware and Usage Data
You acknowledge that, as a default setting, Plan V will collect and send to Painting Practice anonymous hardware and usage data from end users of Products. This functionality is used by Painting Practice to improve Plan V. You may modify the Plan V under the License to turn off that functionality in your Product.
14. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The Licensed Technology, the Marketplace, and all other materials and information provided by Painting Practice (the “Painting Practice Materials”) are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind. Painting Practice, its licensors, and its and their affiliates disclaim all warranties, conditions, common law duties, and representations (express, implied, oral, and written) with respect to the Painting Practice Materials, including without limitation all express, implied, and statutory warranties and conditions of any kind, such as title, non-interference with your enjoyment, authority, non-infringement, merchantability, fitness or suitability for any purpose (whether or not Painting Practice knows or has reason to know of that purpose), system integration, accuracy or completeness, results, reasonable care, workmanlike effort, lack of negligence, and lack of viruses, whether alleged to arise under law, by reason of custom or usage in the trade, or by course of dealing.

Painting Practice, its licensors, and its and their affiliates do not guarantee continuous, error-free, virus-free, or secure operation of or access to the Painting Practice Materials. This paragraph will apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither Painting Practice, its licensors, nor its or their affiliates, nor any of Painting Practice’s service providers, shall be liable in any way for loss or damage of any kind resulting from the use or inability to use Painting Practice Materials or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, including but not limited to loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses.

These limitations and exclusions regarding damages apply even if any remedy fails to provide adequate compensation.
