Please see our FAQS section for more details.

Duration Of Rights

The Artist / Composer agrees that this Agreement will be effective from a date five years prior to the receipt of the Agreement, to the benefit of the Composer/s in perpetuity and forms the basis of our Standard Agreement.
The Compositions shall be administered by the Publisher in perpetuity or until the Artist / Composer gives the Publisher official notice that he no longer requires the services of the Publisher by means of a Contract Cancellation Form.
Provided this is no sooner than a minimum period of twelve months after initially submitting the Agreement, then there will be no charge payable by the Artist / Composer.
If you have been granted any of our ADVANCE options, then this will effectively extend the minimum period of Contracture by twenty four months or until the Advance is recouped, whichever is the lesser.
Tracks accepted for licenced Sync Promo including placements on distributed Compilation / Solo Albums (Themed or Otherwise) are considered to remain so in perpetuity and are not subject to any takedown requests.
We retain the Post-Term Right to collect and retain Net Receipts generated from exploitations during the Term Of Contracture if authorised and distributed by the PRS / MCPS or any Foreign Agency.
No further amounts will be paid to any Artist / Composer after cancellation of their contract.

Agreement Cancellation / Reversion Of Rights

You may terminate your Agreement on 28 days notice at any time after the expiry of the specified minimum Contracture period (usually TWELVE months after initially joining up) by means of a Contract Cancellation Form.
NOTE : For Duos / Bands, each individual member is treated separately for Contractual purposes.
If you only wish to cancel specific titles (e.g. to transfer to another publisher but wish us to administer the remainder) please CONTACT us with full details and do not complete the full Contract Cancellation Form.
This can be done at our discretion only and fees may apply.

NOTE : Unless you are a writer-member of a Performing Rights Organisation, or are transferring to a recognised publisher, cancelling your publishing arrangements may be detrimental to your interests.

If termination is requested sooner than the initial minimum period has elapsed for any reason, an administrative charge of £ 10.00 per registered title (or a minimum charge of £ 50.00) will be levied on the Artist / Composer by the Publisher.
No cancellation requests can be processed if there is an unresolved dispute between the Publisher and the Artist / Composer.

The exceptions to the above are :

1) If the Artist / Composer has requested and been awarded an Advance (see Advance Section below), in which case a added period of Contracture of either twenty four months or until full recovery of said Advance has been made, whichever is the lesser, shall apply.
Early repayment of any Advance is possible in order to allow Contract termination (see Advances Section below).
2) If material has been placed through our Sync Promo service on a distributed Compilation / Solo Album (Themed Or Otherwise) then the period of placement will be indefinite on those titles, with no takedowns possible, as some Sync Agents will not accept short-term placements.
In such cases, we will do our best to ensure that all performance / mechanical royalties are paid directly to you or your new Publisher and you may undertake to administer such titles yourself.

The Publisher has the right to issue an immediate Notification Of Cancellation of any Agreement if they believe that the relationship between the Publisher and the Artist / Composer is deemed to have become untenable.

A client's Notice to Terminate any Contract should be made by completion of the Contract Cancellation Form and all cancellation requests must originate from the personal email address notified to us at the time of signing up.
All Agreements for Duos / Bands are issued on a person to person basis and requests for cancellation are dealt with on the same basis, so all individual songwriters must submit their own respective cancellation forms.
We regret that we cannot accept Contract cancellation requests from an individual band member or any third party representative (Manager / Label etc.,) on behalf of any Band / Act / Solo Artist.

Upon receipt of a request to terminate the Agreement, or issue of a Notice Of Cancellation by the Publisher, then the Publisher will have 28 days to commence revocation of its interest in all Compositions by means of notification of revocation to any involved collecting agencies.
Full control over the copyrights in all titles will then revert to the composer/s.
The Publisher will notify the PRS of any cancellation, requesting them to remove their name and interest from all titles, however, where applicable, it is the responsibility of the client to notify any other foreign Performing Rights Organisation of contract cancellation and make amendments to all relevant registrations where appropriate.
No cancellation request can be actioned if there is an ongoing dispute between the Artist / Composer and the Publisher.
NOTE : If placement/s on a distributed Compilation / Solo Album (Themed or Otherwise) has been secured then such placement/s may remain in distribution in perpetuity and are not subject to any takedown requests.
We retain the Post-Term Right to collect and retain Net Receipts generated from exploitations during the Term Of Contracture if authorised and distributed by the PRS / MCPS or any Foreign Agency.
No further amounts will be paid to any Artist / Composer after cancellation of their contract.

Death Of A Composer

When a Composer (Artist / Composer) dies the Publisher will take over the intermediate administration of all affected titles and act as legal representative until a successor can be appointed.
We will continue to handle the composer's music for Sync Promo / Royalty Recoveries etc.
Copyright exists in compositions for a period of 70 years after the death of the Artist / Composer.
It is our policy that only one successor will be accepted for each deceased Artist / Composer.
It is the responsibility of the successor to inform any relevant Performing Rights Organisation, if appropriate, (e.g. PRS / BMI / ASCAP) of the death of the composer.

A successor will either be a named individual within a Will subject to the Grant Of Probate or, where no Will exists, be the person entitled to obtain Letters Of Administration (normally the Next Of Kin).

As soon as we're informed of the death of a Composer and have been provided with a copy of either the Grant Of Probate, Letters Of Administration or other acceptable documentary evidence we will act in accordance with the above guidelines to ensure the transfer of rights to the successor.
Until such time, all accrued royalty amounts will be held in abeyance pending resolution.

All royalties are paid to the point of contact for a Band / Act for onward distribution.
International payments will be sent in either the Local Currency, US Dollars or GBP Sterling as determined by ourselves.
It is the responsibility of the client to ensure that we have correct Banking Details at all times in order to send all royalties promptly.
Funds that we are unable to send and that remain unclaimed after three months will be considered to be forfeit.

Performance / Reconciliation Royalties

The Publisher shall account to the Artist / Composer (UK Clients) quarter-yearly in the form of an itemised royalty statement within thirty (30) days of 20th April, 20th July, 20th October and 20th December in each year for all sums received to the Artists / Composers account with the Publisher.

The minimum accountable value is one penny.
Payment will be made by either Internet Bank Transfer, Wire Transfer or PayPal (recommended), as requested by the Artist / Composer, with all attendant charges payable by the Artist / Composer.

Mechanical Royalties

The Publisher shall account to the Artist / Composer (UK and International Clients) monthly in the form of an itemised royalty statement within thirty (30) days of the first of the month for all sums received to the Artists / Composers account with the Publisher, except for where the Publisher has previously undertaken to pay any due Mechanical Invoices on behalf of the Artist / Composer.
The Publisher will forward any payment due to the Artist / Composer with such statement.
The Artist / Composer will not receive a payment or a statement when no royalties have been collected or if they do not exceed £10.00 for UK Clients or £50.00 for International Clients (who do not use PayPal), in which case all due royalties will be held over until they achieve this minimum amount.
The minimum accountable value is one penny.
Payment will be made by either Internet Bank Transfer, Wire Transfer or PayPal (recommended), as requested by the Artist / Composer, with all attendant charges payable by the Artist / Composer.

In the event that an Artist / Composer based in the UK has released, or goes on to release, any physical copies of their music through their own label and this has then become subject to an MCPS AP2 Manufacturing Invoice (even ones the MCPS may grant restrospectively), then we will undertake to pay any such Invoice in full (for all titles that we administer).
(By doing so, this will automatically extend the period of Contracture by an additional 24 months and negate the Artist / Composer's own share in future Mechanical Income).
If this service is extended to an Indie Label then, similarly, The Publisher would retain all subsequent amounts received back from the MCPS (nett of MCPS Commissions).

Synchronisation Fees (Where Applicable)

Where the Sync Fee exceeds our minimum distributioon threshold, these will be paid out to the client immediately by the Publisher.
Otherwise, the Publisher shall account to the Artist / Composer quarterly (UK Clients), or bi-annually (Foreign Clients) within our usual distribution statement for performing royalties, itemising the total numbers of Synchronisational placements and fees (Sync Fees) attributable to any of the Artists / Composers songs that have been selected for Synchronisational usage within the preceeding accounting period.
The Artist / Composer will not receive a payment or a statement when no Sync Fees have been collected or if total amounts due do not exceed an amount of £10.00 for UK Clients or £50.00 for International Clients (who do not use PayPal), in which case all due amounts will be held over until they achieve this minimum amount. The minimum accountable value is one penny.

PPL / Neighbouring Rights Royalties

The Publisher shall account to the Artist / Composer annually for all UK PPL returns and quarterly for PPL International returns.

The minimum accountable value is one penny.

Unpaid Royalties

It is the absolute responsibility of all Artists / Composers to ensure that the Publisher is notified promptly of any change to their Email, Postal Address, Banking or PayPal details.
If the Publisher becomes aware that they are unable to pay out any due royalties, all efforts will be made by them to contact the Artist / Composer to resolve the issue.
If the Publisher has been unable to receive any response from the Artist / Composer within one month following the distribution, then all current royalties may be considered to be null and void.
No royalties will be "rolled over" to the following quarter in any eventuality.

All payments are made directly to the Artist / Composer by their specified means of funds transfer in either their Local Currency, US Dollar (International Clients) or Pounds Sterling as determined by ourselves.
When dealing with DUOS / BANDS, we will send all royalties to just one point of contact for onward distribution amongst all listed songwriters.
Where matters are handled by the Publisher on a BAND / DUO or LABEL / MANAGEMENT COMPANY basis, all monies will be sent to the initially named point of contact within the BAND / DUO or LABEL / MANAGEMENT COMPANY for onward distribution as is deemed appropriate by them.

The only exception to this would be:-

If any of the co-composers are writer-members of a Performing Rights Organisation (such as PRS, BMI, ASCAP, SOCAN etc), in which case the amalgamated writers and publishers royalties due to those co-composers are sent to them directly via their PRO.

All International Payments will be subject to Bank Of England currency exchange rates and Banking Charges in proportion to the value of the transaction, set by the handling agent and deducted from the gross amount/s transmitted.
Payments direct from International PRO's will be made in accordance with their standard arrangements for doing so.

The Artist / Composer shall give notice in writing of intent to audit within thirty (30) days of said notice.
The Publisher will co-operate with any such Accountant conducting such audit and make available copy documentation as may be reasonably required at an arranged appointment.
In the event of any such audit where the Auditor is not engaged on a contingency or conditional fee or other speculative basis correctly revealing an under payment in excess of Ten Per Cent (10%) of the monies due to the Artist / Composer or Five Hundred Pounds Sterling (£500) (whichever is greater), the Publisher will pay the Artists / Composers reasonable costs of audit (not to include travel, accommodation or subsistence costs) together with the outstanding sum and interest thereon at one per cent (1%) above the Publisher's Bankers published base rate from time to time calculated from the date of due payment to the date of actual payment thereof.
