Common use of Unit Allocation Clause in Contracts

Unit Allocation. Each of the individual recording units under Clauses 1 & 2, grant one specific usage. Where more than one use under Clauses 1 or 2 is required, a further recording unit must be allocated. Units cannot be shared across Clauses 1 & 2. Example; an ‘RNS In-house Recording’ is to be made available online, but the audio will also be released commercially. This would count as two recordings. A total of 10 units per year can be shared across Clauses 1 & 2, with the total allocation remaining at 40 recordings. Musicians will be entitled to ‘Commercial Recording’ fees under Clause 6 (Appendix 1) for any recordings made under Clauses 1 & 2, which are created subsequent to the 20 recordings allocation granted for each. Any of the allocated recording units not used within the contracted year, can be carried forward to the next years allocation, up to a maximum of 5 units. The units carried forward must be used within that following year, and not accumulated year on year. These 5 units can be used across both Clauses 1 & 2.
