requests.
The approval or rejection of a Cash-Out request does not negate any provisions contained in contract(s) with SME. The Cash-Out request does not create a
separate contractual right to receive cash payments beyond the terms contained in contracts with SME. Artists and participants should rely on advice from their own tax
advisors when signing up to the Cash-Out feature. An artist or participant can make one Cash-Out request in any 30 day period. Subject to satisfying local invoicing
requirements, Cash-Out requests submitted on or before the 10th day of any month will be settled on or around the 15th day of that month, while Cash-Out requests
submitted after the 10th of any month will be settled by the 15th of the following month.
