Your Counter-Notice must include substantially the following:
Your physical or electronic signature.

A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material.
Your name, address, telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the court for the judicial district in which your address is located, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
