                                    I request that you read and evaluate said material
with
                                    a view to decide whether you will undertake to represent it. If you subsequently decide to represent me as a manager, we will
                                    enter into a written management agreement. 
3.
                                    I represent and warrant that I am sole owner and author of said material, that I 
   have the exclusive right and authority to submit and/or convey the same to you
                                   
                                    
upon the terms and conditions stated herein. I agree to indemnify you and your
employees from any and all claims, losses or liabilities (including reasonable attorney's fees) that may be asserted against you or any of your employees or

                                    you or your employees at any time in connection with said material, or any use thereof, in connection with any breach or alleged
                                    breach of the foregoing representations and warranties. 
4. I agree that any part of said material which does not in itself constitute protectable literary property may be
                                    used by you or any of your employees without any liability to me, and that nothing in this agreement nor the fact of my submission
                                    of said material to you shall be deemed to place you in any different position than any member of the public with respect
                                    to such material. 
5. I understand that you
                                    receive numerous unsolicited submissions and that you have access to and/or may create or have created literary material,
                                    formats, stories and the like, and that many such submissions received by you are similar or identical in theme, idea, plot,
                                    or other respect to those developed by you or your employees or otherwise available to you. I agree that I will not be entitled
                                    to any compensation 
because of the use by you of any such similar or identical material.
6. I understand that you have adopted the policy, with respect to the unsolicited 
   submission of material, of refusing to accept, consider of evaluate unsolicited

                                    otherwise evaluate my material in the absence of my acceptance of each and all of the provisions hereof. I shall retain all
                                    rights to submit this or similar material to persons other than you. I understand that no confidential relationship is established
