It is understood that Healey Music Inc. will provide production
services in accordance with the approved functional specifications
for work that the Client/Broker warrants and represents to Healey
Music Inc. that it has obtained ownership, signed documentation,
control and/or license of the media to be duplicated/replicated
by Healey Music Inc. It is also understood that Healey Music Inc.
may at its sole discretion, engage any sub-contractors to perform
any part of the services.
Quantity - All orders that contain printed packaging will be considered
complete if they are plus or minus ten (10%) of the ordered quantity
for audio CDs, CD-ROM, CD-R, DVD, VHS, diskette and audiocassettes.
The amount under will be credited on a pro-rated, per unit basis.
The amount over will be given to the Client/Broker free of charge
(shipping is extra).
Payment (must be one of the following) - Certified cheque, money
order, bank draft or cashier's cheque. A sixty percent (60%) deposit
is required on placement of order, and the balance before shipment
of the completed order. Unfortunately, Healey Music Inc. cannot
accept personal or company cheques due to the long clearance times.
We also accept payment in the form of Visa, MasterCard, and American
Express. For local clients we offer Interac.
Term accounts - All accounts applying for terms must provide financial
information and complete a credit application. If approved, full
payment is due thirty (30) days from invoice date. It is understood
that accounts that are past due and over sixty (60) days will
lose "open account" status and automatically be placed into collections.
It is also understood that "orders in production" may be placed
on hold due to overdue accounts.
Shipping - The client will be responsible for shipping charges
on the completed order. Healey Music Inc. will pay any customs
& brokerage fees on orders shipped to you when applicable (U.S.
orders only). We will also pay for any customs & brokerage fees
on orders shipped to us, provided that the value of the shipment
does not exceed $12.00 (twelve) dollars and our shipping instructions
are followed (U.S. orders only). Delivery dates are subject to
print production schedules and commercial freight carriers; therefore
we cannot guarantee a delivery date. Finished goods will be held
for sixty (60) days after completion. At that time Healey Music
Inc. is no longer responsible for the delivery of that product.
If the product made by Healey Music Inc. is found to be defective
or is labeled or shipped in error, Healey Music’s sole liability
will be to promptly replace, credit or repair such defective products,
provided written notice of such imperfection or error is given
within seven (7) days after its arrival at its destination.
Graphic Art Charges - The acceptable allowance for scanned images
is based on a per panel per page basis (1 panel or page equals
one scan) per project. Additional scans will incur extra charges
over and above the original quoted project design rate. Additional
file modifications or layout revisions, proofs and or couriers
are at an additional cost if applicable to the original quoted
project. The Client/Broker will approve all additional charges
before proceeding. The Client/Broker for all artwork files supplied
on disk must supply reference proofs.
Specifications - Please make sure that all components meet our
specifications. Failure to do so may result in delays to the completion
of your project and may result in additional charges.

| Production
Masters |
|
All production masters provided by the Client/Broker will be duplicated/replicated
as is. Healey Music Inc. cannot be held responsible for the quality
of the audio and/or data programming of the provided master. Programming,
auto run features and X platform compatibility are not tested
prior to manufacturing. All modifications to a supplied production
master must be specified in writing prior to manufacturing and
the Client/Broker must approve a final production proof. (Additional
charges may apply).

|
| Color
Matching (Printed Inserts) |
|
All our inserts are "gang-run" as per industry standard (several
inserts printed on the same sheet). This allows us to offer printed
inserts at an economical cost to you, but unlike magazine – quality
printing exact color matching for any one project is not our standard
option. We will make every effort to monitor the printing of your
insert, but we cannot guarantee an exact color match on the final
product. If this is of a great concern please contact your representative
for other options. Due to differences in equipment, processing,
printing substrates, paper, inks, pigments and other conditions
between color proofing and production pressroom operations, a
reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed
project shall be considered acceptable. If you are at all concerned
about the final colour of your product we strongly recommend you
request pressmatches BEFORE giving us the approval to proceed
with your order.

| Copyright
Ownership |
|
It is illegal to reproduce a sound recording without the expressed
consent of the owner of the recording. Healey Music complies with
all international copyright conventions and participates in copyright
compliance and anti-piracy initiatives undertaken by The Recording
Association of America (RIAA), the Canadian Recording Industry
Association (CRIA) and the International Recorded Media Association
(IRMA). In order to protect you and us from possible legal action,
you may be asked to produce proof of ownership or license to replicate
prior to manufacturing. It is understood that you, the Client/Broker
is responsible and liable for obtaining any and all required licenses
to reproduce any sound recordings that you are not the original
owner of. Healey Music Inc. will not knowingly duplicate/replicate
any questionable recording that you cannot provide the appropriate
documentation for.
|
|
| Anti-Piracy |
|
It is understood that software even if it is "shareware or freeware"
must be checked by the Client/Broker prior to placement of order
to verify if the copyright holder allows copying of their programs.
Healey Music Inc. will not duplicate/replicate if a provided master
comes under questionable authenticity, or if 3rd party software
such as MS iExplorer, AOL, Netscape and other common browsers
are used without obtaining distribution agreements. All mechanical
licensing documentation must be provided upon request for all
production masters to be duplicated/replicated.

that it has ownership, signed documentation, control and/or license

| Publishing
(Cover Songs) |
|
Recording a version of someone else’s song requires payment of
royalties to the original writers and the publisher of the song.
This is commonly called a mechanical royalty. These rights are
usually administered in the U.S. by the Harry Fox Agency (212-370-5330,
www.nmpa.org) Please reference the form "request for phonorecord
importation" or in Canada by the Canadian Musical Reproduction
Rights Association (CMRRA) (416-926-1966, www.cmrra.ca). You can
also negotiate directly with the publisher of the material. It
is your responsibility to obtain these rights and you may be asked
to produce this license prior to manufacturing.

Warranty |

applicable amount. Healey Music Inc. cannot be held liable for
any direct, indirect, special or consequential damages of our
actions or products (including damages for loss of profits, revenue
or business and the like) in any way. Please, do not schedule
the release of your product too close to the anticipated delivery
of your project. Delays can and do occur due to the numerous number
of variables involved.

| Additional
Information |
|
• It is highly recommended that all Masters be backed up and sent
in place of your originals. We will not be held responsible for
loss or damage of your Master. (Applies to all client supplied
materials).
• Finished printed graphics supplied by the client, which don’t
meet size specifications, are subject to an extra charge.
• When supplying final film, client is responsible for costs incurred
for adapting said final film to proper specifications.
• Production masters and film separations will be returned at
the request and expense of the client. Note: This must be requested
on the placement of your order.
• Prices quoted in our price list may change without notice.
• Healey Music occasionally has to destroy parts stored by us on
your behalf. We keep all components for a minimum of 1 year. Due
to space restrictions, we can not feasibly keep all parts indefinitely
and must therefore periodically clear space in the warehouse to
make room for newer materials. If you will not be reordering with
the year we recommend you ask to have your materials returned
to you at the end of your order. We are not responsible for these
parts after one (1) year.
