5) Licensee is not authorized to feature the Music solely “as is” or as part of a music compilation where the Music is a stand-alone element (excluding settings where public performance rights apply — See Paragraph 13 below). The Music must be synchronized or combined with other audio-visual or audio-only works (e.g., videos, podcasts, indie films) to create a unique End Product.

6) Licensee is not authorized to remix, register, lease, redistribute, or resell the Music as an original song, as a song combined with lyrics, as part of an on-demand or made-to-order application (e.g., website builder, stock video template, generator for slideshows or e-cards), or as part of any multimedia template that is subsequently offered to multiple end-users.

7) Licensee is authorized to loop, crop, or fade the Music to meet the creative needs of the End Product.

10) Licensee may not use the Music in conjunction with an End Product that contains defamatory, obscene, or pornographic material or material that demeans on the basis of personal identification factors such as ethnicity, race, national origin, religion, or gender.

11) Licensee shall indemnify and hold GHM harmless from any and all damages and expenses stemming from Licensee’s inability to use the Music for Licensee’s intended purpose or from Licensee’s use of the Music in a manner found to infringe rights or to violate the law.

12) If the circumstances of Licensee’s use change so that Licensee’s circumstances fall within the terms of a higher-tier license, Licensee may purchase the higher-tier license for the difference between the original purchase price and the price of the higher-tier license.
