Exercise 11

Irving Berlin (now his estate), the author of God Bless America , found that his song became a standard at memorial services for the September 11, 2001, victims. What would happen if Mr. Berlin's estate allowed the song to be performed without the standard royalty payment? Note: Mr. Berlin's estate gives the royalties from the song to the Boy Scouts of America.
