Summary

If participants in the section 803(b)(3) proceeding agree on rates or terms and the Copyright Royalty Judges adopt them, but those terms would normally run for a longer time, the rates stay in effect for the longer period. The Judges must adjust those rates to account for national inflation during the extra time.
