The publisher is a corporation which is engaged in the business of publishing, selling and exploiting songs, music and other like literary, dramatic and artistic property. The publisher agrees to pay the songwriter during the contract term a specified amount of money on a regular basis as a nonreturnable advance and to be deducted from any and all royalties accruing to the songwriter.

The publisher agrees to pay to the songwriter or, upon his/her death, to the persons legally entitled to, during the period of copyright protection of the compositions. The royalties will be paid in instances where the songwriter was the sole author and composer of the musical composition and, with regard to compositions where the songwriter has a collaborator, the songwriter will be paid only such portion of the royalties were shared equally among all writers of such composition.
