Such Royalty payments are made at least annually and as per the required reporting period and must be accompanied by a statement of all Distributors' Gross Revenue in accordance with the following Distribution Royalty Payment Form. Insurance and Retirement contributions and Writer deductions must be remitted in relation to Distribution Royalty payments. In the case of a limited company, certification must be by an officer or director of the company.
The Distribution Royalty Payment Form contains separate first pages for single productions and series. All subsequent pages are to be included for all projects.
In accordance with the terms of the Distributor's Assumption Agreement:
- a Distributor shall be under no obligation to pay Distribution Royalties pursuant to the IPA and this Distributor's Assumption Agreement until such time as the aggregate Distributors' Gross Revenue exceeds one hundred percent (100%) of the Budget, and
