Co Publishing Agreement

I need a Co-Publishing Agreement under Danish law for a catalog of 50 electronic dance music tracks, where my company will share 50% of the publishing rights with a major international publisher who will handle exploitation in the European market starting March 2025.

What is a Co Publishing Agreement?

This Co-Publishing Agreement template is designed for use under Danish jurisdiction when two music publishers wish to enter into a partnership for the joint exploitation of musical works. It is particularly useful when an original publisher seeks to partner with another publisher to enhance the exploitation of works in specific territories or markets. The agreement encompasses essential elements required under Danish law, including compliance with the Danish Copyright Act (Ophavsretsloven) and relevant EU regulations. It provides comprehensive coverage of rights allocation, revenue sharing, administrative responsibilities, and territorial restrictions, while maintaining flexibility to accommodate various commercial arrangements in the modern music publishing industry. This document should be used when establishing new co-publishing relationships or formalizing existing arrangements, ensuring all parties' rights and obligations are clearly defined under Danish legal framework.

What sections should be included in a Co Publishing Agreement?

9. Warranties and Representations: Standard warranties regarding ownership, right to enter agreement, etc.

10. Assignment and Sub-Publishing: Terms governing the ability to assign rights or appoint sub-publishers

11. Termination: Circumstances under which the agreement can be terminated and the consequences

12. Governing Law and Jurisdiction: Specification of Danish law as governing law and jurisdiction for disputes

13. General Provisions: Standard boilerplate clauses including notices, entire agreement, etc.

What sections are optional to include in a Co Publishing Agreement?

1. Digital Rights Management: Special provisions for digital exploitation when the works are primarily exploited digitally

2. Minimum Performance Requirements: Include when specific performance targets are required from the co-publisher

3. Creative Control: When original publisher wants to maintain control over specific uses or modifications

4. Anti-Corruption Compliance: For international deals or when working with major corporations

5. Data Protection: Detailed GDPR compliance section when significant personal data processing is involved
