Participants who enter into a coffee purchase agreement on the Marketplace with an Other Participant may in conjunction thereto also enter into a “License to Roast” agreement according to which the buyer of the coffee obtains a license to use and exploit intellectual property rights of the seller in order to further the sales of such coffee. Such parties are free to agree to this Optional License to Roast Agreement in whole or in part, or to agree to different or additional terms for such license. However, if and to the extent that the Participant and the Other Participant who are party to a coffee purchase agreement have agreed to a license to roast but have not agreed to different terms, then they agree to incorporate this Optional License to Roast Agreement. Participants may not, by agreement amongst themselves, alter the rights or responsibilities of SEWN or agree to any terms that would violate the terms and conditions of the Marketplace. Neither SEWN, nor any affiliate of SEWN is a party to any license agreements by or between Participants regardless of whether Optional License to Roast Agreement is incorporated.

You acknowledge and agree that Participants have discretion whether to contract with each other and will negotiate and determine the specific terms of their agreements with each other. This Optional License to Roast Agreement is a sample only, which may not be appropriate for all agreements and which may be adjusted and added to as Participants deem appropriate. Participants choose whether to use the Optional License to Roast Agreement in whole or in part.
