I have been advised by the SA Broadcasting Corporation as follows:
1. Yes, the SABC broadcasts on You Tube, Show Max and Vu.
(a) See attachment, titled, Media platforms the SABC broadcast on. It details each programme name.
(b) See attachment, titled, Media platforms the SABC broadcast on. The attachment details the amounts received by the SABC for each programme sold.
(c) Commercial exploitation fees and profit share are used interchangeably. When we refer to profit share we normally mean commercial exploitation fees. Yes commercial exploitation fees are paid to the Producer, the Writer and the Principal Performers in licensed programmes. The Producer might be paid a further 10% of the commercial exploitation fee where the Producer facilitated the licensing of the programme.
2. Payments are made on a continuous basis based on each agreement. The royalty payments / profit share payments were allocated for payment at the end of October 2019 after receiving the first portion of the bailout.
