Sponsors are guaranteed at least five hundred (500) broadcast equivalents from some combination of the following per program possibilities: (a) KCDO-TV Channel 3 K3 Colorado (up to 6 broadcast equivalents), (b) live-streaming, if it is done for any programs (up to 4 equivalents), (c) COMCAST Entertainment Television (up to 4 equivalents depending on the broadcast schedule), (d) COMCAST 24/7 Video on Demand service (4 equivalents); (e) ION Media Networks (2 equivalents), (f) Municipal and/or Public Access stations and channels (up to 8 equivalents); (g) other local or regional channels (up to 12 equivalents); (h) Publication Partners and Publishers’ Advantage Websites (up to 40 equivalents), (i) the www.HarberTV.com and the www.Colorado-Now.com Websites plus associated Websites (up to 4 equivalents per Website), and/or (j) other broadcasters and/or Websites (up to 4 equivalents per entity). Each separate program is multiplied by the appropriate equivalent and then added together to get the final equivalent total.
Broadcast days and times are subject to change at any time by each broadcast entity and cannot be guaranteed by USA-TN. For 500 broadcast equivalents, the maximum per broadcast equivalent rates are as follows: Level 2 = $100 per broadcast equivalent, Level 3 = $250 per broadcast equivalent, Level 4 = $500 per broadcast equivalent, and Level 5 = $1,500 per broadcast equivalent. These per-broadcast equivalent rates are reduced further if the broadcast equivalent total exceeds 500. In the event there are more than 500 broadcast equivalents, the Sponsor shall have the benefit of all those extra broadcast equivalents at no additional charge. This includes broadcaster entities not listed above. If a show were broadcast regionally and/or nationally, a broadcast equivalency would be determined using the same parameters as those in use. Sponsors would have the benefits of any regional or national broadcasts because there would be no additional charges. On-air sponsorship benefits remain permanently for all full uses of every sponsored program. This means programs available for multiple years keep the Sponsor’s benefits intact.
