The counter-notification must be a written communication provided to South Florida Basketball's Designated Copyright Agent and must include substantially the following:

  • Your physical or electronic signature.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled.

  • Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which South Florida Basketball may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notification or an agent of such person.
