The year’s income (1 July to 30 June) stood at the record level of $9.8 million, representing an increase of 17% over the previous year. The surplus is at another record high - $7.2 million dollars available to distribute to artists and labels, representing an increase of 23% over the year ending June 2001. This year’s excellent result was assisted by the resolution of the FACTS agreement which accounted for approximately half of the 23% increase, and included a back payment component. Public performance licence numbers at the end of the period stood at 34,451, representing an increase of approximately 3% over the previous year. Overall, a very encouraging result from a financial perspective, and PPCA’s 13th consecutive year of income and surplus growth. A key highlight for PPCA in 2002 was the relaunching of the website now providing new features and an improved and streamlined navigation system, allowing users to easily access relevant information on PPCA activities. Areas of direct relevance to registered artists include a news & communications section, material on new policies and legislative issues and the ability to print off artist and recording registration forms. This year also saw the introduction of new procedures for artist registration. These were executed as a direct result of the new federal privacy legislation designed to help protect personal information and ensure that artist entitlements are correctly reported. As reported last year, PPCA in association with other Australian collecting societies, developed an industry code of conduct which was successfully implemented this year with PPCA taking all the necessary steps to ensure compliance with the code. With regards to international activities, a reciprocal agreement with PPL, PPCA’s sister body in the UK, covering independent copyright owners for broadcasting and public performance in both territories was successfully negotiated. Under this arrangement, PPCA will represent UK Indies in Australia for broadcast and public performance rights and PPL will be able to collect and distribute licence fees on behalf of Australian Indies. This is a positive initiative by PPCA for our smaller labels that do not have license arrangements in place with local UK labels or the resources to deal direct with PPL. PPCA continues its role of raising the awareness of public performance and broadcasting rights and this includes regular submissions to government to assist in positive law reform. The recent appointment to PPCA of a Manager for Licensing Development will also ensure that new and viable sources of revenue streams from the commercial use of sound recordings are explored and implemented on behalf of all members. I would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge the contribution of my fellow Board members during the year and thank them for their support as well as the continued dedication and hard work of the PPCA secretariat in all their activities.

Annual Report 2002 Management Report 2002 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE It is a pleasure to once again report record achievements in the areas of revenue, distributable surplus and licence coverage. Total income for the 2002 financial year increased by 17%, resulting in overall earnings of $9.8 million. Increases in the areas of “Public Performance Fees” (up by $541k) and “Commercial Television Fees" (up by $722k) were the main contributors to this positive growth. It should be noted that fees from the commercial television sector covered an eighteen month period, as an adjustment for the previous year was received on conclusion of the agreement. Unfortunately, the demise of the “Music Country” pay television channel reduced the income from the subscription television sector. Despite the substantial increases in income, operating expenses were closely contained, and increased by only 2.4%. The distributable surplus reached a new high with an increase of 23.4% over the previous year, resulting in an amount of just over $7.2 million for distribution to artists and record labels. The number of general public performance licences continues to grow, and at June 2002 stood at 34,451. The ongoing growth in licence coverage and public performance income illustrates the effectiveness of the licensing department and the contribution of the communications programme. The simple graphs on page 9 display PPCA’s achievements in the key areas of revenue, distributable surplus and public performance licence coverage. COMMUNICATIONS During the year our programme of advertising and communications has continued, as we endeavour to increase awareness of the value that can be derived from using sound recordings in business, the concept of copyright ownership, and the benefits PPCA can provide in linking sound recording users with owners. PPCA’s profile has been enhanced by our participation in a number of industry events and education based programmes around Australia. The PPCA website (www.ppca.com.au) is a key element of the communications strategy, and was relaunched in 2002 after extensive redevelopment. Through its simple navigation system, users can quickly access the increased resources for copyright owners, artists, licensees and the general public. DISTRIBUTION During December 2002, PPCA made its annual distribution to registered artists and record labels for the financial year ending June 2002. Almost 750 cheques were issued prior to Christmas to distribute the record surplus to artists and labels. We continue to work to increase awareness of PPCA throughout the artist community, and urge all artists, managers and associations to spread the word and encourage all eligible Australian recording artists to register for the Artist Direct Distribution Scheme. Similarly, we continue to contact emerging labels to explain the role and function of PPCA and the benefits of allowing PPCA to assist in their licensing activities. During the year, two distribution related policy decisions were effected. First, the minimum threshold for an artist payment was increased to $5 (previously $2). This increase was 7 Management Report 2002 continued implemented to control administrative overheads, due to the costs involved in processing payments. This is the first increase in a number of years, and still provides a very low threshold for participation in direct artist distributions. As usual, any amounts allocated to registered artists that do not reach this annual threshold will be directed to the relevant copyright owner / record company, for distribution in accordance with the particular contractual arrangements for the various recordings. Secondly, following a review of the artist registration procedures as a result of new federal privacy legislation, each artist must now register individually (i.e. “group” / “band” registrations are no longer accepted) and sign their initial registration form. The revamped PPCA website is a good source of information, and explains the registration process. All forms can be downloaded from the site, and there are some sample documents to demonstrate how they should be completed. Over the next twelve months PPCA will be contacting those registered as “bands” to convert them to individual registrations. We encourage all artists to ensure that their details are complete and they keep us up to date on a regular basis with details of their new recordings. The distribution process, a core function of PPCA, is both complex and time consuming. As in prior years, the process was greatly assisted by the free access granted to PPCA by the Australian Record Industry Association (ARIA) of its extensive catalogue database. This database provides invaluable information, and assists in the matching of artist registrations with the titles contained in the distribution logs. SUPPORT ACT LIMITED (SAL) PPCA has continued its support of SAL - a national benevolent fund established to provide assistance to Australian musicians, composers, and associated workers. PPCA is represented on the Board of SAL, and supports SAL’s aim to provide financial, legal and medical assistance to those artists / composers and families in need. In addition to providing ongoing administrative support, PPCA has provided practical assistance in fund raising activities, with events such as the annual Melbourne Cup Lunch drawing the industry together to generate much needed funds to aid the organisations ongoing charitable activities. HUMAN RESOURCES Mid 2002 saw the appointment of Nick Love in the newly created role of Manager, Licensing Development. The role focuses on key customer relations and identifying new areas of business, and is a key element of PPCA's strategy to continue to deliver year on year growth in the areas of revenue and distributable surpluses. Alex Malik left PPCA in July 2002, in order to undertake doctoral studies in intellectual property at Sydney’s University of Technology. Following Alex’s departure, Jason McLennan was appointed to the position of Corporate Counsel. 8 Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Ltd. Annual Report 2002 Management Report 2002 continued THE COMING YEAR As always, the year ahead is expected to be another challenging one for the organisation and its staff. Negotiations are currently underway with cable subscription telecasters and commercial radio broadcasters in relation to the appropriate level of licence fees, and we hope to conclude these agreements within the next few months. We are also in the process of finalising arrangements with the ABC for a new long term agreement in relation to fees for the use of sound recordings and music video clips in its radio and television services. We plan to maintain and improve our record for steady public performance licence growth. Our established public relations and communications programme supports this goal and dovetails neatly with our obligations under the Code of Conduct for Collecting Societies. PPCA has and will continue to engage in ongoing dialogue with government, to ensure that the particular needs of artists and sound recording copyright owners are not overlooked as the community embraces new technologies and ways of conducting business. In relation to broadcast rights, PPCA continues to seek the removal of the artificial limit on radio broadcast fees contained in the Copyright Act. For many years, the owners of copyright in sound recordings have been effectively subsidising the Australian commercial radio broadcasting industry. Since the GRAPH 1 DISTRIBUTION (Millions) introduction of the Copyright Act (1968) commenced, broadcasters have benefited from the “price capping” on the licence fees that can be charged for the broadcast of sound recordings. The limits are significantly lower than market rates for such licences in other comparable countries. This is a vital issue for PPCA. It continues to remain high on our list of priorities for the benefit of our constituents as it has a significant impact on current and future income levels. On this, and all issues, PPCA remains committed to ensuring that all registered artists and record labels obtain fair remuneration for the use of their sound recordings and music video clips.

The Trustees during the period 1 July 2001 - 30 June 2002 were Peter Bond, Emmanuel Candi (resigned January 2002), Stephen Peach (from February 2002), Patricia Amphlett and Denis Shelverton. In exercising their powers pursuant to the provisions of the Trust, the Trustees have the power to pay or to apply the Trust Fund to or for the benefit of such beneficiaries as the Trustees in their absolute discretion from time to time determine in respect of one or more of the following purposes: 1 performance at concerts at or for charitable institutions such as hospitals or homes for the aged; or, 2 scholarships for the promotion and encouragement of musical and theatrical education; or 3 the promotion and encouragement of the performing arts to the general public; or, in particular, 4 the aid or assistance of any beneficiary who in the opinion of the Trustees is unable to adequately maintain herself/himself by her/his own exertions and other income. Total funds provided since creating the Trust have been $1,460,806 (up to 30 June 2002). In the 2001-2002 year, three Trust meetings were held and 19 applications were put to the Trustees. Of these, 15 were approved totaling $74,437. Of the successful applications 12 related to further education and research; and 3 to festivals, live music and local artists. The names of the recipients are as follows: • Mike Bevan • Willow Neilson Quartet • Flinders Street School of Music • Sam Riley • Musicians’ Union of Australia • 15th Annual ARIA Awards • Claire Stirling • Gary Wain • Media Entertainment & Arts Alliance • Teresa Beck-Swindale The Trust Balance Sheet can be found on page 39 of this report.Feedback from many of the grants recipients has been welcome and useful. Here are some examples: Thank you for your assistance with the Willow Neilson Quartets trip to Belgium to attend the Jazz Hoelaart International Competition in Belgium. Each member of the group has benefited from the experience in many ways. I think we created interest in Australian jazz amongst all the musicians and organisers that we met. I attained a contact in each major city in central Europe and think we succeeded in all of our objectives and more. What I think was most important, outside of the contacts we made for further touring, recording and arrangement work, was the musical interaction between other young musicians of high calibre from so many countries. Thank you once again, Willow Neilson 12 Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Ltd. Annual Report 2002 I am writing on behalf of the Flinders Street School of Music to express our sincere thanks for the grant the Trust has provided for the Festival of Australian Music held in Adelaide in August/ September 2000. The Festival was a resounding success, and received a very positive response in both the local and national media as well as providing strong opportunities for students from the School. Once again, please accept our thanks for your generosity. Diana J Harris Principal Lecturer Director - Festival of Australian Music 2002 Most Broadcast Recordings and Artists As with previous years, PPCA continues to acknowledge the most broadcast recordings and artists in Australia. The extensive play lists used as the basis for PPCA’s distribution surplus payments determine these results. SOPHIE MONK | WARNER MUSIC The MOST BROADCAST RECORDINGS lists the 100 most broadcast recordings of the year as played by radio and television stations across Australia. The MOST BROADCAST ARTIST list is measured by collating all titles performed by each of the artists listed in the PPCA radio/TV broadcast logs taken during the relevant period (i.e. July 2001 to June 2002). MOST BROADCAST RECORDINGS The most Broadcast Recording over all for 2002 was Drops of Jupiter by Train taking the #1 position; this was followed by Lifehouse with Hanging by a Moment at #2 and then Gabrielle’s hit single Out of Reach from the movie soundtrack Bridget Jones’ Diary at #3. Local talent hit the list with Alex Lloyd’s award winning Amazing reaching #5 making it the most broadcast Australian recording on radio for the period. Australian music continued to have a strong presence in the PPCA list for the given period with many artists achieving multiple entries including Kylie Minogue, Powderfinger, Paul Mac as well as Alex Lloyd. Credit must be given to the record companies for their dedicated marketing and investment efforts towards these artists and their recordings throughout the year. Many Australian artists covering diverse genres made their debut onto the PPCA list during 2002 and this included Paul Mac, Aneiki, Kasey Chambers, Grinspoon, Shakaya, Selwyn, Bardot and a solo Darren Hayes. Overall, twenty-one (21) positions in the Top 100 Most Broadcast Recordings for 2002 were by fifteen (15) Australian artists. MOST BROADCAST ARTISTS The Top 50 MOST BROADCAST ARTISTS saw an outstanding result for local music with international pop sensation Kylie Minogue taking the #1 position. This position was mainly achieved by having four (4) of her recordings ‘airplayed’ into the Top 100 – Can’t Get You Out of My Head, In Your Eyes, Love at First Sight and On a Night Like This - pushing Kylie ahead of international artists U2 at #2 and Madonna at #4 and last year’s #1 on the list, Savage Garden. In the history of compiling the PPCA broadcast charts, this is the third year running an Australian act has achieved the top position indicating the popularity of Australian music across a wide range of broadcasting station formats. This, combined with her continuing catalogue of hits, has resulted in Kylie Minogue receiving the PPCA Award as the Most Broadcast Australian Recording Artist (2002). Other Australian performers in the Top 50 Most Broadcast Artists list included Paul Mac (10), Powderfinger (13), Alex Lloyd (16), John Farnham (19), Natalie Imbruglia (29), INXS (35) Vanessa Amorosi (36), many still proving the dominance of their music catalogue on radio. PPCA has once again compiled the list of the Most Broadcast Recording and Artists for 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 on the following pages. Being hard factual data, these results are always keenly observed by artists and record companies, radio stations and music enthusiasts. 13 PPCA Top 100 Most Broadcast Recordings 2002 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 Drops of Jupiter Hanging by a Moment Out of Reach Follow Me Amazing Pleased to Meet You Can’t Get You Out Of My Head How you remind me Don’t Stop Movin’ Starlight (original version) Lovin’ each day In Your Eyes Cherry Lips (Go Baby, Go!)

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES FINANCIAL REPORTING FRAMEWORK The company is not a reporting entity because in the opinion of the directors there are unlikely to exist users of the financial report who are unable to command the preparation of reports tailored so as to satisfy specifically all of their information needs. Accordingly, this “special purpose financial report” has been prepared to satisfy the Directors’ reporting requirements under the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report has been prepared on the basis of historical cost and except where stated, does not take into account changing money values or current valuations of non-current assets. Cost is based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The financial report has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, the basis of accounting specified by all applicable Accounting Standards and UIG Consensus Views and the disclosure requirements of Accounting Standards AASB 1001 “Accounting Policies”, AASB 1018 “Statement of Financial Performance”, AASB 1034 “Financial Report Presentation and Disclosures” and AASB 1040 “Statement of Financial Position” and UIG Abstract 35 “Disclosure of Contingent Liabilities”, except the disclosure requirements of AASB 1017 “Related Party Disclosures” and AASB 1033 “Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Instruments”. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Accounting policies are selected and applied in a manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby ensuring that the substance of the underlying transactions and other events is reported. The following significant accounting policies have been adopted in the preparation and presentation of the financial report: a) Depreciation Depreciation is provided on plant and equipment. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis so as to write off the net cost or other revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is shorter, using the straight line method. The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation. Office Furniture Office Equipment Computer Equipment Motor Vehicles b) 10–11 years 9 years 3 years 5 years Income Tax The company prepares its income tax returns on the basis that it acts as agent for the record companies that it represents. As such, it does not derive income on its own account. Rather it is entitled under its constituent document to be reimbursed for expenditure incurred in the course of its activities. The basis of assessment has been agreed with the Australian Taxation Office. The net effect of timing and permanent differences arising from expenditure incurred by the company is passed on to the recipients of the royalties collected. 28 Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Ltd. Annual Report 2002 Notes to the Financial Statements FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2002 c) continued Revenue Recognition Unearned revenue is brought to account over the terms of the licences issued on the following basis: i. Public performance fees are normally issued for a period of one year, although shorter periods are accommodated. In all cases licence fees are payable in advance. Income is brought to account on a monthly basis over the life of the contract. ii. Broadcast licences are issued for various terms - income is brought to account on a monthly basis over the life of the contract. d) Leased Assets Leased assets classified as finance leases are recognised as assets. The amount initially brought to account is the present value of minimum lease payments. A finance lease is one which effectively transfers from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased property. Finance leased assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Finance lease payments are allocated between interest expense and reduction of lease liability over the term of the lease. The interest expense is determined by applying the interest rate implicit in the lease to the outstanding lease liability at the beginning of each lease payment period. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a basis which reflects the pattern in which economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. e) Recoverable Amount of Non-Current Assets Non-current assets are written down to recoverable amount where the carrying value of any non-current asset exceeds recoverable amount. In determining the recoverable amount of non-current assets, the expected net cash flows have not been discounted to their present value. f) Employee Entitlements Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave when it is probable that settlement will be required and are capable of being measured reliably. Provisions made in respect of wages and salaries and annual leave expected to be settled within 12 months, are measured at their nominal values. Provisions made in respect of long service leave which are not expected to be settled within 12 months are measured as the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the company in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. 29 Notes to the Financial Statements FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2002 g) continued Receivables Trade receivables and other receivables are recorded at amounts due less any allowance for doubtful debts. h) Accounts Payable Trade payables and other accounts payable are recognised when the company becomes obliged to make future payments resulting from the purchase of goods and services. i) Investments Investments are recorded at cost. Interest revenue is recognised on an accruals basis. j) Acquisition of Assets Assets acquired are recorded at the cost of acquisition, being the purchase consideration determined as at the date of acquisition plus costs incidental to the acquisition. In the event that settlement of all or part of the cash consideration given in the acquisition of an asset is deferred, the fair value of the purchase consideration is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present value as at the date of acquisition. k) Goods and Services Tax Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: i. where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item of expense; or ii. for receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flows. 30 Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Ltd.
