Sec. 3015.43  Royalties and other income earned from a copyrighted 
work.

    (a) This section applies to royalties, license fees, and other 
income earned by a recipient from a copyrighted work developed under the 
grant or subgrant. Income of that kind is covered by this section 
whether a third party or the recipient acts as the publisher, seller, 
exhibitor, or performer of the copyrighted work. In some cases the 
recipient incurs costs to earn the income but does not charge these 
costs to USDA

grant funds, to required cost-sharing or matching funds, or to other 
program income. Costs of that kind may be deducted from the gross income 
in order to determine how much must be treated as program income.
    (b) The provisions of the grant award govern the disposition of 
income subject to this section. If the provisions of the grant award do 
not treat this kind of income, there are no USDA requirements governing 
its disposition. A recipient is not prohibited from imposing 
requirements of its own on the disposition of this kind of income which 
is earned by its subrecipients provided those requirements are in 
addition to, and not inconsistent with, any requirements imposed by the 
provisions of the grant award.
