2. REVISIONS
A. Upon receipt of the Author's Formatted Proof from the PUBLISHER, AUTHOR will
make final corrections and submit the corrected Proof to the PUBLISHER prior to
PUBLISHER submitting the manuscript to the book manufacturer. If the AUTHOR has
not corrected and delivered the Author's Proof to the PUBLISHER within three months of the
AUTHOR's receipt of the Author's Proof, the PUBLISHER may, at its option, terminate this
agreement by notice in writing, posted or delivered to the AUTHOR ten (10) days before the
date of termination. Additionally, the value of the work completed at the time of failure to
deliver a completed corrected manuscript of the Work shall be deducted from any fees paid
by AUTHOR prior to issuing a refund.
B. Upon receipt of the corrected Author’s proof copy, PUBLISHER will make corrections to
the layout of the document at the PUBLISHER’s expense. AUTHOR requested
corrections to the text block and any necessary layout adjustments required as a
result of these corrections will be made at the rate of $35.00 per hour, billable to

Author's proof copy. After the initial revision to the Author’s proof, additional copies will be
generated and corrected at the AUTHOR's expense at the PUBLISHER’s text-block rate
currently in effect, but not less than $35 per hour, in one-hour increments with a minimum of
one hour charged. In addition, if the AUTHOR requests interior corrections or changes after
the generation of the Advance Copy (see below), an additional fee of $60 per interior re-

revisions. This fee is subject to change based on the printer rate currently in effect.
C. PUBLISHER will design a full-color cover which meets the criteria set out by the AUTHOR

the PUBLISHER’s cover rate charge currently in effect, but not less than $250 per
consultation plus $200 per hour, in one-hour increments with a minimum of one hour
charged. In addition, if cover changes are done after the generation of the Advance Copy
(see below), an additional fee of $60 per cover re-submission will be charged to recoup fees
charged by the printer for post-submission revisions. This fee is subject to change based on
the printer rates currently in effect.
D. The "Advance Copy" is the copy provided by the printer to PUBLISHER for final review so
that PUBLISHER can insure that the production copies will meet standards. All efforts need
to be made by AUTHOR to finalize the content of their book prior to submission of the book
to the printer. The Advance Copy is intended for PUBLISHER's internal review and as a final
opportunity for AUTHOR to made pre-production changes. If AUTHOR desires
additional changes to the book that were not determined prior to submission of
the manuscript to the printer, changes will be made at AUTHOR's expense.
Changes will be billed at the PUBLISHERS interior text block rate currently in effect AND/OR
the PUBLISHER’s cover rate currently in effect, as above. An additional fee of $60 per
