COMMERCIAL EXPLOITATION LICENSE (comexp.txt -- accompanies Quake
|
||
|
|
registered version only)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are interested in trying to make money using the registered version
|
||
|
|
of Quake (this sort of thing is not allowed using the shareware version) you
|
||
|
|
must sign our easy-to-digest Commercial Exploitation License.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is a royalty free license that allows you to run Quake for a profit
|
||
|
|
through a certain monthly gross profit range. If your Quake-related business
|
||
|
|
becomes successful the agreement brings id into the revenue stream.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Basic terms of the commercial exploitation license:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- License grants a royalty free commercial exploitation right for the
|
||
|
|
registered version of Quake as a whole so long as Quake's monthly gross
|
||
|
|
revenue is below $5,000.00
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- License provides for a 12.5% royalty to be paid to id Software in months
|
||
|
|
where the licensee's Quake related monthly gross revenue is above $5,000.00
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- Royalty is based off net income. Net income is defined as Quake-related
|
||
|
|
gross income less Quake-related expenses.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- License expressly prohibits commercial exploitation via the sale (retail
|
||
|
|
or otherwise) of the shareware or registered versions of Quake.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-- License expressly prohibits advertising/marketing use of our copyrighted
|
||
|
|
and/or trademarked properties.
