SPECIAL PROVISIONS:
The Composition will be identified on your backliner in a manner that will show the proper writer(s) and copyright notice.
2. In connection with your exercise of the right and license granted herein, you shall have the right to make a musical arrangement of the Composition to the extent necessary to conform it to the style or manner of interpretation of the performance involved, provided, however, that any such arrangement shall not change the basic melody or the fundamental character of the Composition. You hereby transfer and assign to us all right, title, and interest including all rights of copyright in any such arrangement.
3. In consideration of the rights herein granted, you agree to pay to us the following rate for mechanical rights - an amount equal to the statutory mechanical rate applicable at the time of distribution (currently $0.0910, or $0.0175 per minute of playing time, whichever is greater) per composition per performance for each phonorecord embodying Composition made and distributed by you or under your authority.
4. In the event that the compulsory license royalty rate set forth in Section 115 of the United States Copyright Law is adjusted pursuant to Section 801 of said law, the royalty rate provided herein shall be automatically adjusted in the same ratio and said adjusted royalty shall be paid by you with respect to each Recording made and distributed pursuant to this agreement. As to Recordings manufactured prior to any such statutory mechanical rate increase, you shall be allowed two calendar quarters after the effective date of any such increase to continue to distribute product manufactured at the pre adjusted rate. All product sold after such two quarters have elapsed shall be paid at the adjusted rate regardless of when such product was manufactured.
As used in this agreement all terms and phrases, including the phrase "made and distributed" shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the United States Copyright Law and the regulations properly adopted in connection therewith, unless otherwise specified or defined herein.
If another publisher, who shares ownership in this composition or who owns another composition which is found on this Recording, is paid at a rate higher than the rate stipulated herein (proportional to percentage of ownership), such higher rate will automatically be considered the rate agreed to in this license.
5. Forty-five (45) days following the end of each calendar quarter, you agree to render to us a statement of all royalties earned during such calendar quarter and to remit therewith payment in the full amount of sums shown to be due to us. In the event that you fail to account and pay royalties to us and fail to remedy such default within thirty (30) days after written notice given to you by certified or registered mail, this agreement and all rights herein granted shall automatically terminate and such termination shall render either the making or distribution of Recordings for which the royalty has not been paid actionable as acts of infringement under the United States Copyright Law.
6. In the event legal action becomes necessary for us to collect royalties from you, you agree to bear all costs of collection and litigation expended by us including all legal costs and reasonable attorney's fees.
7. We shall have the right to inspect and audit your books and records relating to transactions involving the rights granted hereby at your office during regular business hours upon giving notice in writing at least thirty (30) working days prior to the desired date of such inspection and audit.
8. You shall supply us with a complimentary copy or copies (CD configuration if available) of this Recording when it is released.
9. We hereby warrant, covenant, and represent that we are the lawful owner of the copyright in the Composition or are the authorized agent for said owner and possess full right and authority to grant the rights and license herein described.
10. The rights granted herein may not be transferred or assigned by you to any other party without written permission from us.
11. This license constitutes our entire agreement and cannot be modified except by written instrument. This license shall be construed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Tennessee applicable to agreements wholly to be performed therein.
12. Permission is granted to reprint lyrics for use on label and artist websites as well as use in lyric videos for social media marketing utilizing YouTube and all other social media outlets.
