**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Background

The Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 (the ‘‘AHRA’’), Public Law 102– 563, requires manufacturers and importers to pay royalties on digital audio recording devices and media that are distributed in the United States. 17 U.S.C. 1003. These royalties are deposited with the Copyright Office for further distribution among interested copyright parties by the Copyright Royalty Judges (‘‘Judges’’), provided that the interested copyright parties file a claim with the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) each year during the months of January and February. 17 U.S.C. 1005,
1007.

The AHRA provides that the royalties are divided between two funds: the Sound Recordings Fund and the Musical Works Fund. The Sound Recordings Fund receives 66 2 ⁄ 3 % of the royalties and the Musical Works Fund receives the remaining 33 1 ⁄ 3 %. These fees are allocated further to specific subfunds.

The Sound Recordings Fund consists of four subfunds: the Featured Artists Subfund, the Copyright Owners Subfund, the Nonfeatured Musicians Subfund, and the Nonfeatured Vocalists Subfund. The royalty fees allocated to the Sound Recordings Fund are divided among these four subfunds according to the percentages set out in section 1006 of the Copyright Act. 17 U.S.C. 1006(b)(1). 1 Distribution of these fees may occur in one of two ways. The interested copyright parties within each subfund may either negotiate the terms of a settlement as to the division of royalty funds, or the Judges may conduct a proceeding to determine the distribution of the royalties that remain in controversy in each subfund. See 17 U.S.C. 1006(c).

On August 18, 2014, the CRB received a motion from the Alliance of Artists and Recording Companies (AARC) asking the Judges to authorize a partial distribution of 98% of the 2013 digital audio recording technology (‘‘DART’’) Sound Recordings Fund (Copyright Owners and Featured Recording Artists subfunds). The CRB published notice of the settlement and a solicitation of comments in the Federal Register on October 6, 2014. 2 On December 19, 2014, the Judges granted the motion, finding that there was no reasonable objection to AARC’s proposed partial distribution. See Order Granting AARC’s Request for Partial Distribution of Royalties from the 2013 DART Sound Recordings Fund (Copyright Owners and Featured Recording Artists Subfunds) at 3–4 (December 19, 2014 Order). The Judges now commence a proceeding to resolve any existing controversies with respect to the 2013 DART Sound Recordings Fund (Copyright Owners and Featured Recording Artists subfunds). Commencement of Proceeding

Consistent with 17 U.S.C. 804(b)(8), the Judges determine that a controversy exists as to the distribution of the 2013 DART Sound Recordings Fund. The Judges make this finding based on the fact that AARC notified the Judges that it failed to reach settlements with three claimants to the 2013 Featured Recording Artists Subfund and that it failed to reach settlements with five claimants to the 2013 Copyright Owners Subfund. December 19, 2014 Order at 1. In the December 19, 2014 Order, the Judges ordered the parties to notify the Judges whether any remaining disputes in this matter have been resolved. Id. at 4. To date, the Judges have not received notification that any of these controversies have been resolved. Intention to Conduct a Paper Proceeding

In accordance with Section 803(b)(5)(B) of the Copyright Act, the Judges find it appropriate to conduct a paper proceeding in this matter in light of the relatively modest amount of royalties in dispute and the anticipated small number of non-settling claimants. In such proceedings, the Judges determine issues solely on the basis of the filing of a written direct statement by each participant, a response of an opposing participant, and one additional response from the participant. 17 U.S.C. 803(b)(5). Any party wishing to comment on the Judges’ intention to conduct a paper proceeding should include such comments in its Petition to Participate.
Petitions to Participate

Petitions to Participate must provide all of the information required by 37 CFR 351.1(b)(2). Petitions to Participate submitted by interested parties whose claims do not exceed $1,000 3 must contain a statement that the party will not seek a distribution of more than $1,000. No filing fee is required for these parties. Interested parties with claims exceeding $1,000, however, must submit a filing fee of $150 with their Petition to Participate or it will be rejected. Cash will not be accepted; therefore, parties must pay the filing fee with a check or money order made payable to the ‘‘Copyright Royalty Board.’’ If a check is returned for lack of sufficient funds, the corresponding Petition to Participate will be dismissed.

Further procedural matters, including scheduling, will be addressed after Petitions to Participate and comments, if any, on the Judges’ intention to conduct a paper proceeding, have been received.

In accordance with 37 CFR 350.2 (Representation), only attorneys who are members of the bar in one or more states and in good standing will be allowed to represent parties before the Judges, unless the party is an individual who represents herself or himself.

Participants should conform filed electronic documents to the Judges’ Guidelines for Electronic Documents, available online at www.loc.gov/crb/ docs/Guidelinesfor
