EXHIBIT E

Complete My Album

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to any CMA Offers and CMA Transactions (as defined below):

1.
Definitions:

(a)           “Purchased Track” means a track or video previously acquired by a customer from the Online Store by (i) purchase by any payment means or (ii) through a promotional download, so long as ITUNES paid to COMPANY the appropriate wholesale price under this Agreement for such download.

(b)           “CMA Album” means an album with which one or more Purchased Tracks are “associated” (as provided in paragraph 3 below).

(c)           “Remaining Tracks” means all tracks or videos contained on a CMA Album, other than any Purchased Tracks.

(d)           “CMA Offer” means the option by a particular customer to purchase the Remaining Tracks of a CMA Album as a bundle – i.e., to “complete” that album – at a specified bundle price.

(e)           “CMA Transaction” means the purchase by a customer of the Remaining Tracks of a particular CMA Album as a bundle at a specified bundle price.

(f)           “Advance Single” means a single track released on the Online Store in advance of the release of the corresponding album (e.g., a radio edit or pre-release single).

(g)           “Subsequent Album” means the album, released subsequent to an Advance Single’s release, on which the Advance Single was included upon the album’s release.

2.
Authorization of CMA Offers and Transactions. ITUNES is hereby authorized to make CMA Offers and conclude CMA Transactions as provided in this Exhibit.

3.
“Associated” Purchased Tracks and CMA Albums.

(a)           Except as provided in paragraphs 3(b)-(e) below, a Purchased Track is only deemed “associated” with the album on the Online Store off of which it was acquired by the customer.

(b)           For Advance Singles, the Subsequent Album shall be deemed to be the “associated” CMA Album. If only one (unmarked) version of the Advance Single was offered, and both clean and explicit versions of the Subsequent Album are

 
Schedule 1 – Page 8 of 9

 
 
offered on the Online Store, then each such version of the Subsequent Album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with the Advance Single.
 
(c)           If standard and deluxe versions of an album are offered on the Online Store, then each such version of the album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with any Purchased Track acquired off of either version of the album.

(d)           A redelivered album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with any Purchased Track that was acquired off of any version of that same album that was previously available (but is no longer available) on the Online Store under the authority of COMPANY. ITUNES will use commercially reasonable efforts to create automated “matching” such that CMA Offers involving redelivered albums are made available to customers consistent with this subparagraph.

(e)           A Purchased Track originally purchased in DRM eMaster (as defined in Exhibit C) format off of the DRM eMaster version of a particular album, and then subsequently upgraded to eMaster format, shall thereafter also be deemed “associated” with the eMaster version of that album.

(f)           To the extent a customer is presented with more than one CMA Offer with respect to the same Purchased Track (because more than one album is deemed a CMA Album “associated” with such Purchased Track hereunder), the customer may only select one such option. In no event may one Purchased Track be applied to more than one CMA Transaction.

4.
Partial Albums. Only full albums (including video albums) available for sale on the Online Store are eligible to be CMA Albums. Partial albums are not eligible.

5.
Wholesale Price. ITUNES will pay COMPANY the CMA Wholesale Price (as defined in this paragraph) for each CMA Transaction. The CMA Wholesale Price will equal the wholesale price under this Agreement for the CMA Album in effect at the time of the CMA Transaction (“Regular Wholesale Price”) less the sum of the wholesale prices ITUNES previously paid for the Purchased Tracks to COMPANY; provided, however, that the CMA Wholesale Price in no event shall be less than the wholesale price under this Agreement for a single track (a single music video in the event the CMA Album is a video-only album) in effect at the time of the CMA Transaction. For avoidance of doubt, ITUNES may determine retail prices on the Online Store, including retail prices for CMA Transactions, entirely at its sole discretion.

6.
Reporting. Each CMA Transaction will be reflected on sales and royalty reports as follows: (i) a new sale of the full CMA Album at the Regular Wholesale Price, identified as a CMA sale; and (ii) a return (i.e., negative royalty) for each Purchased Track contained on the CMA Album in the amount ITUNES previously paid for the Purchased Track to COMPANY, each identified as a CMA return.

ITUNES may modify the foregoing process in its reasonable discretion [xxxxxx].

EXHIBIT D

Music Videos

The following additional or modified terms and conditions shall apply to the sale of permanent downloads of music videos under the Agreement. In all other respects the terms and conditions of the Agreement shall apply equally to music videos. Solely for purposes of this Exhibit D:

1.
Section 1(b) shall state: “COMPANY Content” means music videos, including, without limitation, audio and video files, owned or controlled by COMPANY that COMPANY has cleared for use by ITUNES pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. COMPANY shall not provide to ITUNES any music videos that have not been so cleared.

2.
Section 1(d) shall state: “eMaster” means a copy of COMPANY Content in DRM-free digital format suitable for exploitation on the Online Store (provided that the audio and video quality and integrity attributable to such format shall at all times be commensurate with the audio and video quality and integrity generally attributable to the format of third party short-form music videos available on the Online Store), which ITUNES may sell on the Online Store pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. [xxxxxx]

3.
Section 3(b) shall state: COMPANY shall make all COMPANY Content that COMPANY authorizes herein for sale on the Online Store available as single videos. From time to time during the Term, ITUNES may in its discretion decide to accept additional product configurations (e.g., multi-video albums) from COMPANY, in which case COMPANY may, in its discretion, offer to make particular COMPANY Content available for sale on the Online Store in such product configurations.

4.
Section 4 shall state:

(a)
Except as provided in Section 4(b) below, COMPANY shall be responsible for: (i) obtaining all rights of, and all waivers of any applicable moral or similar rights by, artists, performers, writers, producers, directors and any other third party rights holders necessary for ITUNES’ unencumbered sale, promotion, storage, distribution and other use as authorized hereunder of COMPANY Content, Artwork, metadata and/or any other materials provided to ITUNES by COMPANY; and (ii) making corresponding full and timely payments of all royalties, residuals, participation payments, repeat fees and/or other sums payable for such rights and/or waivers, and all payments that may be required under any collective bargaining, union or guild agreements related to the COMPANY Content or its exploitation or other use

hereunder, including any similar payments which are not now but hereafter become payable.
 
(b)
ITUNES shall be responsible for: (i) obtaining the reproduction (i.e., mechanical), public performance and communication to the public rights in the musical compositions embodied in COMPANY Content as may be reasonably necessary for ITUNES’ sale, promotion, storage, distribution and other use as authorized hereunder of COMPANY Content (“Author’s Rights”); and (ii) making corresponding full and timely payments of all royalties and/or other sums payable for such rights, including any similar payments which are not now but hereafter become payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that COMPANY owns or controls any part of such rights (whether directly or indirectly), COMPANY shall not withhold such rights in any way that could frustrate the purpose of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that the wholesale prices set forth in Exhibit B reflect a deduction for Author’s Rights at the prevailing industry-wide royalty rates (currently estimated at eight percent (8%) of retail price) and that, in the event that higher or lower prevailing industry-wide royalty rates are established (whether by a court or tribunal within the Territory or through negotiations), then the wholesale prices set forth in Exhibit B shall be prospectively reduced or increased (as the case may be) using such established industry-wide royalty rates.

5.
All references to Exhibit A shall instead be to Exhibit B.

6.
The following Upgrade Wholesale Price shall apply for Single video eMasters: €[xxxxxx].

EXHIBIT E

Complete My Album

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to any CMA Offers and CMA Transactions (as defined below):

1.
Definitions:

(a)           “Purchased Track” means a track or video previously acquired by a customer from the Online Store by (i) purchase by any payment means or (ii) through a promotional download, so long as ITUNES paid to COMPANY the appropriate wholesale price under this Agreement for such download.

(b)           “CMA Album” means an album with which one or more Purchased Tracks are “associated” (as provided in paragraph 3 below).

(c)           “Remaining Tracks” means all tracks or videos contained on a CMA Album, other than any Purchased Tracks.

(d)           “CMA Offer” means the option by a particular customer to purchase the Remaining Tracks of a CMA Album as a bundle – i.e., to “complete” that album – at a specified bundle price.

(e)           “CMA Transaction” means the purchase by a customer of the Remaining Tracks of a particular CMA Album as a bundle at a specified bundle price.

(f)           “Advance Single” means a single track released on the Online Store in advance of the release of the corresponding album (e.g., a radio edit or pre-release single).

(g)           “Subsequent Album” means the album, released subsequent to an Advance Single’s release, on which the Advance Single was included upon the album’s release.

2.
Authorization of CMA Offers and Transactions. ITUNES is hereby authorized to make CMA Offers and conclude CMA Transactions as provided in this Exhibit.

3.
“Associated” Purchased Tracks and CMA Albums.

(a)           Except as provided in paragraphs 3(b)-(e) below, a Purchased Track is only deemed “associated” with the album on the Online Store off of which it was acquired by the customer.

(b)           For Advance Singles, the Subsequent Album shall be deemed to be the “associated” CMA Album. If only one (unmarked) version of the Advance Single was offered, and both clean and explicit versions of the Subsequent Album are

 
Schedule 2 - Page 8 of 9

 
 
offered on the Online Store, then each such version of the Subsequent Album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with the Advance Single.
 
(c)           If standard and deluxe versions of an album are offered on the Online Store, then each such version of the album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with any Purchased Track acquired off of either version of the album.

(d)           A redelivered album shall be deemed to be a CMA Album “associated” with any Purchased Track that was acquired off of any version of that same album that was previously available (but is no longer available) on the Online Store under the authority of COMPANY. ITUNES will use commercially reasonable efforts to create automated “matching” such that CMA Offers involving redelivered albums are made available to customers consistent with this subparagraph.

(e)           A Purchased Track originally purchased in DRM eMaster (as defined in Exhibit C) format off of the DRM eMaster version of a particular album, and then subsequently upgraded to eMaster format, shall thereafter also be deemed “associated” with the eMaster version of that album.

(f)           To the extent a customer is presented with more than one CMA Offer with respect to the same Purchased Track (because more than one album is deemed a CMA Album “associated” with such Purchased Track hereunder), the customer may only select one such option. In no event may one Purchased Track be applied to more than one CMA Transaction.

4.
Partial Albums. Only full albums (including video albums) available for sale on the Online Store are eligible to be CMA Albums. Partial albums are not eligible.

5.
Wholesale Price. ITUNES will pay COMPANY the CMA Wholesale Price (as defined in this paragraph) for each CMA Transaction. The CMA Wholesale Price will equal the wholesale price under this Agreement for the CMA Album in effect at the time of the CMA Transaction (“Regular Wholesale Price”) less the sum of the wholesale prices ITUNES previously paid for the Purchased Tracks to COMPANY; provided, however, that the CMA Wholesale Price in no event shall be less than the wholesale price under this Agreement for a single track (a single music video in the event the CMA Album is a video-only album) in effect at the time of the CMA Transaction. For avoidance of doubt, ITUNES may determine retail prices on the Online Store, including retail prices for CMA Transactions, entirely at its sole discretion.

6.
Reporting. Each CMA Transaction will be reflected on sales and royalty reports as follows: (i) a new sale of the full CMA Album at the Regular Wholesale Price, identified as a CMA sale; and (ii) a return (i.e., negative royalty) for each Purchased Track contained on the CMA Album in the amount ITUNES previously paid for the Purchased Track to COMPANY, each identified as a CMA return.
