Schedule 1
PUBLISHER agrees to:
1. PUBLISHER will a) work with AUTHOR to determine a layout suitable to the
WORK, b) take AUTHOR's manuscript as specified in Schedule 2 and format it as
appropriate with page headers, footers, page numbering, correctly sized page
margins, title page, copyright page and other materials according to the author’s
preference, c) fully design a 4-color cover appropriate to the WORK, and d)
present the completely formatted manuscript to the author, printed two-sided on
8 ½ by 11 paper. This working document is called the Author's Proof copy.
2. 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 the AUTHOR. If requested, PUBLISHER will provide
one additional revised and corrected 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

charged. In addition, if the AUTHOR requests interior corrections or changes
after the generation of the Advance Copy (see below), an additional fee of a
minimum of $90 per interior re-submission will be charged to recoup fees
charged by the printer for post-submission revisions. This fee is subject to change

made at the AUTHOR’s expense. Changes will be billed at the PUBLISHER’s
cover rate charge currently in effect, but not less than $250 per consultation plus
$200 per hour for labor, in one-hour increments with a minimum of one hour
charged. In addition, if the AUTHOR requests cover corrections or changes after
the generation of the Advance Copy (see below), an additional fee of a minimum of
$90 per cover resubmission will be charged to recoup fees charged by the printer
for post-submission revisions. This fee is subject to change based on the printer
rate currently in effect.

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
the WORK prior to submission of the WORK 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 WORK that were not determined prior to submission of the
manuscript to the printer, changes will be made at AUTHOR's expense.

PUBLISHER’s cover rate currently in effect, as above. An additional fee of a
