PAYMENT

Business account owners shall receive a payment related to the number of valid tickets sold on the Website. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing (including by electronic mail), payments to business accounts holders shall be sent by LaughStub within approximately seven (7) days after the end of the calendar week (Monday through Sunday) in which the Event(s) occurs if you earned a balance of $50 or more. Payments are accumulative and rolled over into the following seven (7) day pay period if the threshold is missed. However, all payments will be distributed at the end of the month even if the threshold limit is not reached.

In the event the Agreement is terminated, LaughStub shall pay your earned balance to you within approximately thirty (30) days after the end of the calendar week (Monday through Sunday) in which the Agreement is terminated following LaughStubÂ’s receipt of your written request, including by email, to terminate the Agreement or by LaughStub. In no event, however, shall LaughStub make payments for any earned balance less than $1.00.

You acknowledge and agree that LaughStub may should it decide to do so, without further notice to you, contribute to a charitable organization selected by LaughStub all funds, payments and other amounts held by LaughStub and that are due to you (if any), but which LaughStub is unable to pay or deliver to you because your business account payment information is inaccurate or invalid or you business account is inactive. “Inactive” means that, based on LaughStub’s records: (a) for a period of twelve (12) months or more you have not logged into your business account or accepted funds, payments or other amounts LaughStub has attempted to pay or deliver to you, and (b) LaughStub has been unable to reach you, or has not received adequate payment instructions from you, after contacting you at the address shown in LaughStub’s records.

INFORMATION PROVIDED BY LAUGHSTUB

Although LaughStub strives to provide Materials that are both useful and accurate, the nature of the data and other information contained on the Website is subject to frequent change. In addition, the facts and circumstances of every situation differ. Accordingly, although LaughStub endeavors to use reasonable care in assembling the Materials, the Materials may not be up-to-date, accurate or complete.

The inclusion of such information does not indicate any approval or endorsement thereof, and LaughStub expressly disclaims any liability with respect to the foregoing.

COPYRIGHT DISPUTE POLICY

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by LaughStub infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Website are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow LaughStub to locate the material on the Website; (d) the name, address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) 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 (f) 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. Additionally, if you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed by LaughStub against you, the DMCA permits you to send LaughStub a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Website should be sent to Scot Richardson, LaughStub LLC, 2038 Armacost Avenue, Los Angeles, California 90025, Main: (800) 927-0939, Fax: (800) 807-3109, or email us at scot@laughstub.com. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

Violating any limitations or terms on the Website, including but not limited to utilizing automated means to process or place ticket orders or ordering a number of tickets that exceeds the stated limit will be deemed to be a violation of these Terms. If we are unable to verify or authenticate any information or tickets you provide during any registration, ordering, purchase, ticket posting, sale, authentication, delivery, payment or remittance process, or any other process, or if we are no longer able to verify or authorize your credit card or bank account information, your tickets may be cancelled, we may refuse to honor all pending and future ticket purchases made on such credit card accounts and/or on any online accounts associated with such credit card accounts, and you may be prohibited from using the Website.

You agree that monetary damages may not provide a sufficient remedy to LaughStub for violations of these Terms, and you consent to injunctive or other equitable relief for such violations.

You agree that abusive use of the Website causes damage and harm to LaughStub in the form of, among other things, impaired goodwill, lost sales, and increased expenses associated with responding to abusive use of the Website. You further agree that monetary damages for abusive use of the Website are difficult to ascertain and that proof of monetary damages for abusive use would be costly and difficult to calculate. Accordingly you agree that liquidated damages are warranted for abusive use. Therefore, you agree that if you, or others acting in concert with you, alone or collectively request more than 1,000 pages of the Website in any twenty-four hour period, you, and those acting in concert with you, will be jointly and severally liable for liquidated damages in the amount of twenty-five cents ($0.25) per page request each time that a page request is made after that first 1,000 during that twenty-four hour period. You also agree that this will be the measure of damages for any abusive use that occurred prior to this provision of these Terms being in effect.
