The problem of missing cue sheets in ACUM has been ongoing for some years. Supplying ACUM with the missing cue sheets will enable all of us to collect the income that is just "sitting" there waiting to be collected.

To give you some idea about the extent of this problem here are some numbers:

There are 5,843 missing cue sheets for films that were broadcast on TV which were aired between 1997 - 2003 (total of approximately 8,700 broadcasts). Over 10% are films that were broadcast during 1997. If we do not supply the missing cue sheets before October 2005, all the income from those films will go for re distribution and will be lost.

There are 32,816 missing cue sheets for TV series that were broadcast on TV which were aired between 1997 - 2003 (total of approximately 55,104 broadcasts). During 1997 the number of cues broadcast was 4,346 which again could be a potential loss of income.

To deal with this challenge we have appointed the former head of the publishers department in Acum as our head of the missing cue sheet project that is aimed at retrieving and collecting all of that income. To this end we will need you to appoint a special contact person for Natasha to work with. We hope to get as much royalties from ACUM that we can and as soon as possible.
