1. Introduction
This Royalty Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between SayPro (“Licensor”) and [School Name] (“Licensee”).

2. Definitions

- End Users: Refers to the students, educators, and staff members who use SayPro’s content and tools.
- Royalty Payments: Periodic payments to SayPro based on the usage of the Licensed Content by the Licensee. These payments are based on agreed-upon metrics, such as the number of users, frequency of use, or revenue generated from using the Licensed Content.
- Usage Metrics: Metrics that define how often and to what extent the Licensee uses the Licensed Content, such as the number of students accessing the content, the frequency of usage, or specific subscription-based modules.
3. Grant of License
SayPro grants the Licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Licensed Content for educational purposes within the institution for the agreed-upon period. The Licensee is granted the right to:
- Use the Licensed Content in classrooms and for student assignments.
- Provide access to End Users (students, teachers, and staff) as detailed in the Agreement.
The Licensee agrees that SayPro will earn continuous royalties based on usage of the content by its End Users and adoption within the curriculum.
4. Royalty Payment Structure
To ensure continuous revenue generation for SayPro, the royalty payments will be structured based on various usage metrics. The following models are available:
- Royalty per Student:
A royalty fee of $[X] per student, based on the total number of students using the Licensed Content during each reporting period (e.g., semester, academic year).- Payment Frequency: Payments will be made [quarterly/annually] based on the number of students enrolled in the school and actively using the content.
- Royalty per Teacher:
A royalty fee of $[X] per teacher, based on the total number of teachers using the Licensed Content in their lessons or teaching methods.- Payment Frequency: Payments will be made [quarterly/annually] based on the total number of active teachers using the content.
- Royalty per Usage:
A per-use royalty model will be used for specific premium content or tools within SayPro’s platform. The Licensee will pay a fee each time the content is accessed or used by End Users.- Example Fee: $[X] per access of specific modules, quizzes, or digital content.
- Subscription-Based Model (Optional):
In cases where the school subscribes to SayPro’s full content library, a subscription fee will be charged annually. The school will pay a flat fee based on the number of active users (students/teachers) accessing the platform during the subscription period.- Example Fee: $[X] per user per year.
- Revenue-Based Royalties:
If the Licensee generates additional revenue by reselling, distributing, or licensing the content to other schools, third parties, or educational programs, SayPro will receive a percentage of that revenue.- Example Fee: [X]% of the revenue generated from third-party sales or licenses.
5. Royalty Payment Schedule
- Royalty Payment Frequency:
Royalty payments will be made on a [quarterly/annual] basis, with payments due [X] days after the close of each reporting period. - Reporting Period:
The Licensee must provide SayPro with detailed usage reports at the end of each period (quarterly, semi-annually, or annually), summarizing the number of active End Users, frequency of use, and other relevant metrics. - Late Payment:
If the Licensee fails to pay the royalties on time, a late payment fee of [X]% of the total amount due will be charged. If payment is not made within [X] days of the due date, SayPro reserves the right to suspend access to the Licensed Content until payment is received.
6. Metrics for Royalty Calculation
The royalties owed to SayPro will be determined based on the following usage metrics, which will be tracked by the Licensee and reported to SayPro at regular intervals:
- Number of Active Users:
The total number of students, teachers, and staff who have actively used the Licensed Content during the reporting period. - Frequency of Content Use:
The frequency of use of SayPro’s content by End Users. For instance, a royalty may be calculated based on the number of times a student or teacher accesses specific digital content (e.g., quizzes, lessons, or tools). - Engagement Level:
The level of engagement, which could include factors like the amount of time spent on the platform, completion rates of assignments, or participation in interactive modules. - Revenue from Third-Party Sales or Licenses:
If the Licensee resells or sublicenses the content to other entities, SayPro will receive a percentage of the revenue generated.
7. Royalties on Content Adoption and Usage Growth
- Increased Usage:
As usage of the Licensed Content increases over time (e.g., more teachers or students adopting the content), SayPro will benefit from increased royalties tied to higher user engagement and adoption rates.- Example Clause: “If the Licensee demonstrates a 20% increase in active student users over the next academic year, the royalty fee per student will increase by [X]%.”
- Adoption Growth Incentives:
SayPro may offer incentive structures for the Licensee to encourage higher adoption and usage of the content, such as offering tiered royalty rates based on the number of active users.
8. Reporting and Auditing
- Usage Reporting:
The Licensee agrees to provide detailed usage reports every [quarter/year], listing the number of active users (students, teachers), content accessed, and frequency of usage. These reports will form the basis for calculating the royalties owed to SayPro. - Auditing Rights:
