SUMMARY INFORMATION: The Copyright Act, title 17 of the United States Code, grants to sound recordings copyright owners the exclusive right to publicly perform sound recordings by means of certain digital audio transmissions, subject to limitations. Specifically, the right is limited by the statutory license in section 114 which allows nonexempt noninteractive digital subscription services, eligible nonsubscription services, pre-existing subscription services, new subscription services, and preexisting satellite digital audio radio services to perform publicly sound recordings by means of digital audio transmissions. 17 U.S.C. 114(f). In addition, a statutory license in section 112 allows a service to make necessary ephemeral reproductions to facilitate the digital transmission of the sound recording, including for transmissions to business establishments. 17 U.S.C. 112(e). Licensees may operate under these licenses provided they pay the royalty fees and comply with the terms set by the Copyright Royalty Judges. The rates and terms for the section 112 and 114 licenses are set forth in 37 CFR parts 380 and 382–84. As part of the terms set for these licenses, the Judges designated SoundExchange, Inc., as the Collective, i.e., the organization charged with collecting the royalty payments and statements of account submitted by Commercial Webcasters, Preexisting Subscription Services, New Subscription Services, and Business Establishment Services, and with distributing the royalties to the copyright owners and performers entitled to receive them under the section 112 and 114 licenses. See 37 CFR 380.4, 382.5, 383.4, 384.4. As the Collective, SoundExchange may, only once a year, conduct an audit of a licensee for any or all of the prior three calendar years in order to verify royalty payments. SoundExchange must first file with the Judges a notice of intent to audit a licensee and deliver the notice to the licensee. 37 CFR 380.6, 382.7, 383.4. 384.6. On January 29, 2020, SoundExchange filed with the Judges a notice of intent to audit Mood Media Corporation and its affiliates (primarily Muzak LLC and DMX Music) for the years 2017, 2018, and 2019. The Judges must publish notice in the Federal Register within 30 days of receipt of a notice announcing the Collective’s intent to conduct an PO 00000 Frm 00086 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 12031 audit. Id. Today’s notice fulfills this requirement with respect to SoundExchange’s January 29, 2020 notice of intent to audit. Dated: February 24, 2020. Jesse M. Feder, Chief Copyright Royalty Judge.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Nasdaq PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Amend PSX Rule 3506 (Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Program) and Options 9, Section 21 (Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Program) February 24, 2020. Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on February 18, 2020, Nasdaq PHLX LLC (‘‘Phlx’’ or ‘‘Exchange’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III, below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The Exchange proposes to amend PSX Rule 3506 and Options 9, Section 21, both titled ‘‘Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Program.’’ This rule change is intended to reflect the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s (‘‘FinCEN’’) adoption of a final rule on Customer Due Diligence Requirements for Financial Institutions (‘‘CDD Rule’’). Specifically, the proposed amendments would conform PSX Rule 3506 and Options 9, Section 21 to the CDD Rule’s amendments to the minimum regulatory requirements for members’ anti-money laundering (‘‘AML’’) compliance programs by requiring such programs to include risk-based procedures for conducting ongoing customer due diligence. This ongoing customer due diligence element for AML programs includes: (1) Understanding the nature and purpose of customer relationships for the purpose of developing a customer risk profile; and (2) conducting ongoing monitoring to identify and report suspicious transactions and, on a risk basis, to maintain and update customer information. The Exchange has designated this proposal as ‘‘non-controversial’’ under [FR Doc. 2020–04047 Filed 2–27–20; 8:45 am] 1 15 BILLING CODE 7555–01–P 2 17 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:27 Feb 27, 2020 Jkt 250001 PO 00000 Frm 00087 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\28FEN1.SGM U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
