Music works
(SACEM repertoire):
REPRODUCTION OF COMMISSIONED MUSICAL WORKS FROM SACEM ON MULTIMEDIA FORMATS FOR SALE FOR PRIVATE USE*.
A. “ONE-OFF” OR “OCCASIONAL” OPERATIONS*.
*Operations by companies working in a field which has no regular production of multimedia programs (or generates less than 4 600 € per year in reproduction rights due on copies made for multimedia business).
Given that such operations are only occasional occurrences, rights are charged according to the number of copies made.
Rate: The rate charged is a flat fee of one per cent (1%) for the right to reproduce up to twenty-nine minutes (29’) of music protected by copyright.
A waiver, deemed to be an exception and holding no value as a precedent, but designed as a means of taking into consideration the investments made by the Producers to develop and promote their products, grants a reduction, on a temporary basis, set at fifty per cent (50%), i.e. an effective rate of half of one per cent (0.5%).
NB: Any extension of the initial time of twenty-nine minutes incurs further charges calculated as a pro rata increase for the additional time.
Assessment base: Rights due per unit are calculated by applying the rate given above to an assessment base comprised of:
- for copies to be marketed in France, the retail sales price (excluding VAT) with a reduction granted on a temporary basis, of fifty per cent (50%) so as to cover all discounts and rebates. The assessment base, with the reduction factored in, must be at least 15 € (exc. VAT) per copy.
- for copies to be marketed internationally, the sales figure registered by the publisher without any reduction. This assessment base must be at least 6 € (exc. VAT) per copy.
-Proof of such factors must be provided on request.
B. “ORDINARY” OR “REGULAR” OPERATIONS GENERATING AT LEAST 4 600 € (EXCL. VAT) PER YEAR IN REPRODUCTION RIGHTS DUE FOR THE PRODUCER’S MULTIMEDIA BUSINESS.
