106 STAT. 5294 PROCLAMATION 6445-JUNE 15, 1992 (2) collections or compilations of protected or unprotected material or data whether in print, machine readable or any other medium, including data bases, which shall be protected if they constitute intellectual creation by reason of the selection, coordination, or arrangement of their contents. (ii) Rights in works protected pursuant to paragraph 2(a](i) of this Article shall include, inter alia, the following: (1) the right to import or authorize the importation into the territory of the Party of lawfully made copies of the work as well as the right to prevent the importation into the territory of the Party of copies of the work made without the authorization of the right-holder; (2) the right to make the first public distribution of the original or each authorized copy of a work by sale, rental, or otherwise; and (3) the right to make a public communication of a work [e.g., to perform, display, project, exhibit, broadcast, transmit, or retransmit a work); the term "public" shall include: (A) communicating a work in a place open to the public or at any place where a substantial number of persons outside of a normal circle of a family and its social acquaintances is gathered; or (B) communicating or transmitting a work, a performance, or a display of a work, in any form, or by means of any device or process to a place specified in clause 2(a)(ii)(3)(A) or to the public, regardless of whether the members of the public capable of receiving such communications can receive them in the same place or separate places and at the same time or at different times. (iii) Each Party shall extend the protection afforded under paragraph 2(a)(ii) of this Article to authors of the other Party, whether they are natural persons or, where the other Party's domestic law so provides, companies and to their successors in title. (iv) Each Party shall permit protected rights under paragraph 2(a}(ii) of this Article to be freely and separately exploitable and transferable. Each Party shall also permit assignees and exclusive licensees to enjoy all rights of their assignors and licensors acquired through voluntary agreements, and be entitled to enjoy and exercise their acquired exclusive rights. (v) In cases where a Party measures the term of protection of a work from other than the life of the author, the term of protection shall be no less than 50 years from authorized publication, or, failing such authorized publication within 50 years from the making of the work, 50 years after the making. (vi) Each Party shall confine any limitations or exceptions to the rights provided under paragraph 2(a)(ii) of this Article (including any limitations or exceptions that restrict such rights to "public" activity) to clearly and carefully defined special cases which do not impair an actual or potential market for or the value of a protected work. (vii) Each Party shall ensure that any compulsory or non-voluntary license (or any restriction of exclusive rights to a right of remuneration) shall provide means to ensure payment and remittance of royalties at a level consistent with what would be negotiated on a voluntary basis.
