    I.

    SUMMARY OF THE CASE

    This Complaint seeks legal and injunctive relief for copyright infringement and related

    claims arising out of Defendants unauthorized use of Plaintiffs copyright interest in certain

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 1 of 56

  • musical compositions (the "Musical Compositions") written by Kevin Parker and Jay Watson

    (collectively p/k/a "Tame Impala"). These Musical Compositions are embodied on the albums

    entitled "Innerspeaker," "Lonerism" and "Tame Impala EP" (the "Albums"). Each of the

    Albums has been, and absent an Order from this Court, will continue to be manufactured, sold

    and/or distributed by the Defendants.

    II. JURISDICTION AND VENUE

    1. This Complaint is filed, and this action instituted, under 101, et seq., of the

    Copyright Act to recover the damages caused by, and to secure injunctive and declaratory relief

    against, the above-named Defendants for their past and continuing violations of 17 U.S.C. 101,

    et seq. and common law unfair competition laws, as alleged herein.

    2. This Court has original and exclusive jurisdiction over the subject matter of this

    action under the Copyright Act 17 U.S.C. 411 and 501. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1367, the

    Court has supplemental jurisdiction over the substantially related state law fraud, breach of

    contract and unfair competition claims that form part of the same case or controversy.

    3. Venue is proper in this District because: (1) Defendants transact business on a

    systematic and continuous basis within this District, and may be found here within the meaning

    of 28 U.S.C. 1391(b)-(c) 1400; (2) many of the infringing and unlawful acts were performed

    and occurred within this District; and (3) this is a judicial district in which the Defendants reside

    and/or or may be found.

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 2 of 56

  • III. THE PARTIES

    4. Plaintiff BMG Rights Management (US), LLC is a Delaware company, with its

    principal place of business at 1745 Broadway, New York, NY 10019.

    5. BMG is engaged in the business of acquiring, owning, publishing, administering,

    licensing, and/or otherwise exploiting copyrights in musical compositions. Plaintiff invests

    substantial sums of money, as well as time, effort and creative talent to acquire, administer,

    publish, license and otherwise exploit such copyrights, on their own behalf and/or on behalf of

    songwriters and musicians.

    6. BMG is the copyright owner, or owner of exclusive rights, under the United

    States copyright law with respect to the Musical Compositions contained on the Albums, a

    complete list of which is collectively set forth on Exhibit A to this Complaint. BMG has

    submitted applications for registration of the Musical Compositions to the United States

    Copyright Office.

    7. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendant Modular

    Recordings Pty Limited ("Modular") is an Australian Proprietary Company, Limited By Shares,

    with its principal place of business in Sydney, Australia. Plaintiff is further informed and

    believes, and thereon alleges that Modular maintains several offices around the world, including

    one in the State of New York, within the jurisdiction of this Court.

    8. Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon alleges that Defendant Steve

    Pavlovic ("Pavlovic") is an individual whose principal residence is in Sydney, Australia. Upon

    information and belief, Pavlovic is the chief executive officer of Modular and exercises

    4817-3175-5043.2 3

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 3 of 56

  • domination over that company. Upon information and belief, Pavlovic directs and controls

    Modular's infringing activities, and profits therefrom Upon further information and belief,

    Pavlovic regularly conducts business in the State of New York, and is a co-owner of Defendant

    Modular.

    9. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendant Universal

    Music Australia ("UMA") is an Australian Proprietary Company, Limited By Shares, with its

    principal place of business in Sydney, Australia. Upon information and belief, UMA is a co-

    owner of Modular and exercises domination over that company. Upon further information and

    belief, UMA directs and controls Modular's infringing activities and profits therefrom. Upon

    further information and belief, UMA is a division of Defendant Universal Music Group, and

    maintains an office in the State of New York, within the jurisdiction of this Court.

    10. Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon alleges that Defendant Universal

    Music Group ("UMG") is a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business in Santa

    Monica, California. Upon information and belief, UMG has released and continues to release

    the Musical Compositions as embodied on the Albums or otherwise. Upon further information

    and belief, UMG controls Modular's infringing activities and/or profits therefrom. Upon further

    information and belief, UMG maintains an office in the State of New York, within the

    jurisdiction of this Court.

    11. Plaintiff does not know the true names of Defendants designated as Does 1

    through 10, inclusive, and therefore sues them by said fictitious names. Plaintiff is informed

    and believes that said fictitiously named Defendants are responsible in some manner for

    Plaintiff's damage herein, and will amend this Complaint to allege their true names when

    ascertained. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges that, in doing the acts

    4817-3175-5043.2 4

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 4 of 56

  • herein alleged, each defendant was the agent, employee, co-conspirator and/or attorney for

    each co-defendant, and each was acting within the scope of said agency and/or employment.

    Collectively, Does 1 through 10, Modular, Pavlovic, UMA and UMG are sometimes referred

    to herein as the "Defendants."

    12. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that the individual

    Defendants exercised such control and dominion over their co-Defendants so as to make each

    the alter ego and instrumentality of the others. As a result, any protection otherwise afforded to

    the officers, directors, owners, agents or employees of an Australian Proprietary Company or a

    U.S. corporation should be disregarded, and each such company or corporate Defendant should

    be rendered by this Court the mere instrumentality and/or alter ego of their co-Defendants.

    IV. FACTUAL BACKGROUND

    13. BMG owns, administers and/or otherwise controls the Musical Compositions. In

    or about March 2014, BMG entered into six separate mechanical license agreements with

    Modular pursuant to which BMG granted Modular a non-exclusive license to make and

    distribute the Musical Compositions pursuant to Section 115(c)(2) of the Copyright Act. True

    and correct copies of those six mechanical license agreements (collectively, the "Agreements")

    are attached hereto as Exhibit B.

    14. Pursuant to Paragraph 1 of the Agreements, within forty-five days "after the end

    of each calendar quarter," Modular was required to "account to [BMG] in detail for the number

    of phonorecords [containing the Musical Compositions that Modular had] made and distributed

    during said quarter, and. . . [to] pay [BMG] the royalties due [from such sales] at the same

    time."

    4817-3175-5043.2 5

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 5 of 56

  • 15. Pursuant to Paragraph 6 of the Agreements, Modular was required to permit BMG

    "to inspect, at [Modular's] place of business and during usual business hours, upon written

    notice, all books, records and other documents relating to the manufacturing and distribution of

    phonorecords pursuant to [those Agreements]."

    16. Pursuant to Paragraph 7 of the Agreements, "In the event [Modular] fail[ed] to

    account and/or pay royalties to [BMG] as herein provided for, [BMG could] give written

    notice . . . that, unless the default [was] remedied within thirty (30) days from the date of such

    notice, this license shall terminate without further notice."

    17. Further, under that same Paragraph 7, "Such termination shall render either the

    making or the distribution, or both, of all phonorecords for which royalties have not been paid,

    actionable as acts of infringement under, and fully subject to the remedies provided by the

    Copyright Act."

    18. Pursuant to Paragraph 10 of the Agreements, "In the event [BMG is] required to

    institute any legal proceedings against [Modular] in connection with this license, in addition to

    any damages awarded us, [BMG] shall be entitled to our reasonable, actual outside attorneys'

    fees. . . ."

    19. Pursuant to Paragraph 15 of the Agreements, Modular further agreed "that all

    sums indicated as due and owing on statements rendered hereunder shall bear interest at the rate

    of one [percent] (1%) per month from the date due if not paid within thirty (30) days after the

    date due and payable."

    20. Pursuant to Paragraph 17 of the Agreements, "The validity, construction,

    interpretation and legal effect of this license shall be governed by both the Copyright Law [sic]

    4817-3175-5043.2 6

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 6 of 56

  • of the United States and the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts entered into

    and to be fully performed therein."

    21. Despite the obligations set forth in the Agreements, Modular has failed and/or

    refused to account to BMG for its sale and distribution of the Musical Compositions since the

    inception of the Agreements, and has likewise failed and/or refused to pay royalties due to

    BMG in connection with the same.

    22. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, at the time Defendants

    entered into the Agreements, they lacked the ability and/or the intention to comply with their

    accounting and payment obligations as set forth therein. Plaintiff is further informed and

    believes, and thereon alleges, that at the time Defendants entered into the Agreements, they

    knew or should have known they lacked the ability and/or the intention to comply with such

    obligations.

    23. On or about February 11, 2015, BMG sent Modular a notice of breach. A true

    and correct copy of that notice is attached hereto as Exhibit C. That notice provides in relevant

    part that "despite repeated efforts certain Albums are being distributed by Modular . . . and

    Modular's various licensees throughout the United States, its territories and possessions for

    which [BMG has] not received proper statements of account and/or proper payments of

    mechanical royalties. . . . Modular has failed to tender statements of account and accompanying

    payments of mechanical royalties on a regular or systematic basis in material breach of the

    applicable mechanical licenses." That notice further demanded that "Modular immediately

    cease, desist, and refrain from any further violation of BMG's . . . rights ...in and to the

    Compositions. . . ."

    4817-3175-5043.2 7

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 7 of 56

  • 24. Notwithstanding BMG's above-quoted notice of breach, Defendants have failed

    to account and/or pay royalties to BMG as required by the Agreements, such that those

    Agreements have now terminated due to Modular's uncured breach. Notwithstanding the

    foregoing, however, Defendants have continued to distribute the Albums containing the Musical

    Compositions throughout the United States either directly or through their licensees in violation

    of 17 U.S.C. 101 et. seq.

    25. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendants directly or

    indirectly (by and through their various licensees) have engaged in the above-described conduct

    with the actual and specific knowledge of their infringement.

    V. FIRST CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Copyright Infringement Against Modular, Pavlovic and UMA)

    26. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 25 herein, as if fully set forth here.

    27. BMG owns all applicable rights and privileges in and to Musical Compositions,

    and has complied in all material respects with all laws governing those works for purposes of

    bringing this lawsuit.

    28. In or March 2014, BMG and Modular entered into the Agreements, pursuant to

    which Modular obtained non-exclusive mechanical licenses in and to the Musical Compositions

    in exchange for its promised payment of licensee fees and compliance with various accounting

    obligations.

    29. Notwithstanding those promises and obligations, Defendants failed to account to

    or to pay BMG for the Musical Compositions they manufactured, sold and /or distributed.

    Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that notwithstanding the foregoing,

    4817-3175-5043.2 8

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 8 of 56

  • Defendants (individually and through their licensees) have continued to manufacture, sell and/or

    otherwise distribute the Musical Compositions either coupled with the Albums or otherwise.

    30. Defendants' continued manufacturing, sale and/or distribution of the Musical

    Compositions is without license and/or authorization from BMG and constitutes copyright

    infringement pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 501 et. seq. Upon information and belief, Defendants'

    infringement has been, and continues to be, done knowingly, intentionally, deliberately, and

    willfully.

    31. Based on the foregoing, BMG seeks damages, fees and costs in an amount subject

    to proof at trial pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 504, which amount is currently estimated to equal or

    exceed $450,000.00.

    32. In addition to the foregoing, Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon

    alleges, that Defendants' infringing conduct has caused substantial and irreparable injury and

    damage in an amount that Plaintiff is not capable of determining, and which will continue to

    cause irreparable injury unless restrained, thus leaving Plaintiff with no adequate remedy at law.

    BMG accordingly also requests injunctive relief pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 502.

    VI. SECOND CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Copyright Infringement Against UMG)

    33. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 32 herein, as if fully set forth here.

    34. BMG is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendant UMG is

    selling and/or distributing the Musical Compositions as embodied in the Albums or otherwise

    throughout the United States and its territories.

    4817-3175-5043.2 9

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 9 of 56

  • 35. BMG is further informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendant UMG

    has continued to sell and/or otherwise distribute the Musical Compositions following Modular's

    failure to comply with BMG's notice of breach. Plaintiff therefore is informed and believes,

    and thereon alleges, that UMG's continued sale and/or distribution of those Musical

    Compositions is without license and/or authorization, and therefore constitutes copyright

    infringement pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 501 et. seq. Upon information and belief, UMG's

    infringement has been, and continues to be, done knowingly, intentionally, deliberately, and

    willfully.

    36. Based on the foregoing, BMG seeks damages, fees and costs in an amount subject

    to proof at trial pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 504, which amount is currently estimated to equal or

    exceed $450,000.00.

    37. In addition to the foregoing, Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon

    alleges, that Defendant's infringement is causing, substantial and irreparable injury, thus leaving

    Plaintiff with no adequate remedy at law. BMG accordingly also requests injunctive relief

    pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 502.

    VII. THIRD CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Contributory Copyright Infringement Against All Defendants)

    38. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 37 herein, as if fully set forth.

    39. The Musical Compositions are directly infringed each time Defendants' licensees

    manufacture, sell and/or distribute them as embodied in the Albums or otherwise.

    40. Upon information and belief, Defendants know of their licensee's infringing

    activity, and have induced, caused and/or materially contributed to that activity by, among other

    4817-3175-5043.2 10

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 10 of 56

  • things, providing copies of the Albums to their licensees, and/or otherwise supplying their

    licensees with the means of selling and/or distributing the Musical Compositions to end users.

    41. Plaintiff is further informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendants

    had the right and the ability to supervise the infringing activity by Defendants' licensees in that,

    among other things, Defendants may terminate their licensees' ability to sell the Musical

    Compositions as embodied on the Albums or otherwise. Upon information and belief,

    Defendants obtained a financial benefit from their licensees' sale and distribution of the Musical

    Compositions in that, among other things, Defendants received fees and revenue from their

    licensees' sale and distribution of the same.

    42. Upon information and belief, Defendants have refused to terminate their

    licensee's right to sell and/or distribution of the Musical Compositions notwithstanding

    Defendants' breach of the Agreements, and in failing prohibit such post-breach sales and/or

    distribution, have materially contributed to their licensees' infringement of the Musical

    Compositions.

    43. Upon information and belief, Defendants' contributory and vicarious infringement

    has been, and continues to be knowing, intentional, deliberate, and willful. Based on this, BMG

    seeks fees and costs in an amount subject to proof at trial pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 504, which

    amount is currently estimated to equal or exceed $450,000.00.

    44. In addition to the foregoing, Defendants' secondary-infringement has caused

    substantial and irreparable harm to BMG, and will continue to cause such injury unless

    restrained, thus leaving Plaintiff with no adequate remedy at law. BMG accordingly also

    requests injunctive relief pursuant to 17 U.S.C. 502.

    4817-3175-5043.2 11

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 11 of 56

  • VIII. FOURTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Breach of Contract Against Modular)

    45. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 44 herein above and each allegation

    therein as if fully set forth herein.

    46. As set forth in the Agreements, BMG granted Modular a right to make and

    distribute phonorecords containing the Musical Compositions in exchange for Modular's

    promise to account for and pay royalties on those works following the end of each calendar

    quarter. Modular breached the Agreements by failing to comply with these obligations, and

    furthermore failed to cure that breach when BMG notified Modular in writing of the same on or

    about February 11, 2015.

    47. BMG has performed all of its obligations under the Agreements other than those

    for which performance was excused due to Modular's breach. BMG has been harmed as a

    direct and proximate result of Modular's conduct as set forth above and based thereon has

    suffered damages in an amount subject to proof at trial, but currently estimated to equal or

    exceed $450,000.

    IX. FIFTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Fraud - Fraudulent Inducement Against Modular)

    48. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 47 herein above and each allegation

    therein as if fully set forth herein.

    49. When entering into the Agreements, Modular, by and through its agents,

    affirmatively represented to BMG that Modular would account to and pay BMG for all

    4817-3175-5043.2 12

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 12 of 56

  • phonorecords containing the Musical Compositions that Modular and its licensees made, sold

    and/or distributed during the prior calendar quarter.

    50. The foregoing representations by Modular were material in that BMG would not

    have entered into the Agreements absent Modular's affirmative representation that it had the

    capacity to, and would, account to and pay BMG as set forth above. Moreover, Modular's

    representations were knowingly false and/or made without a reasonable basis for believing them

    to be true. In truth, Modular lacked the ability, financially or otherwise, to comply with its

    accounting and payment obligations, and yet failed to inform BMG of this when entering into

    the Agreements.

    51. BMG reasonably and justifiably relied on the Modular's misrepresentation or

    omission of fact, and indeed it was precisely such misrepresentation or omission of fact that

    induced Plaintiff to enter into the Agreements.

    52. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Modular knew or

    should have known that its misrepresentation or omission of fact were false. Modular

    nonetheless intended to induce BMG's reliance on such misrepresentation or omission of fact.

    53. As a result of BMG's reliance on Modular's misrepresentation or omission of

    fact, BMG has been injured in an amount subject to proof at trial, but currently estimated to

    equal or exceed $450,000.

    X. SIXTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Common Law Unfair Competition Against All Defendants)

    54. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 53 herein above and each allegation

    therein as if fully set forth herein.

    4817-3175-5043.2 13

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 13 of 56

  • 55. Defendants' conduct as set forth above constitutes common law unfair

    competition with Plaintiff under the common law of the State of New York.

    56. Defendants' above-stated common law unfair competition has caused, and unless

    enjoined by this Court, will continue to cause, Plaintiff to sustain irreparable damage, loss and

    injury for which Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law.

    XI. SEVENTH CLAIM FOR RELIEF

    (Accounting Against Modular) 57. Plaintiff incorporates paragraphs 1 through 56 herein above and each allegation

    therein as if fully set forth herein.

    58. As set forth above, pursuant to Paragraph 1 of the Agreements, Modular was

    entrusted with a duty to account for money owing to BMG. As further set forth above,

    Paragraph 6 of the Agreements provides that Modular is required to permit BMG "to inspect, at

    [Modular's] place of business and during usual business hours, upon written notice, all books, records and other documents relating to the manufacturing and distribution of phonorecords

    pursuant to [those Agreements]." 59. In light of the foregoing, on or about April 21, 2015, BMG demanded an

    inspection of Modular's books and records in compliance with Paragraph 6 of the Agreements.

    60. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or about May 7, 2015 Modular's counsel led

    BMG to understand and believe that Modular would not comply with BMG's demand for an

    inspection. Accordingly, upon information and belief, Modular either is currently refusing to

    allow BMG to inspect its books and records, or soon intends to refuse BMG's demand for an

    inspection despite the express language of Paragraph 6 to the Agreements, so as to presently

    justify this claim for relief. 61. In light of the foregoing, no adequate legal remedy exists to address Modular's

    refusal to allow an inspection of its books and records. 4817-3175-5043.2 14

    Case 1:15-cv-03615-ER Document 1 Filed 05/08/15 Page 14 of 56

  • XII. PRAYER FOR RELIEF

    WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for judgment as follows:

    1. On the First, Second and Third Claims for Relief, for actual damages in an

    amount currently estimated to equal or exceed $450,000 according to proof, based upon 17

    requiring that Defendants, and each of them, their officers, agents, servants, employees, licensees

    be enjoined during the pendency of this action and permanently from, manufacturing, selling,

    distributing, or in any way using or transferring the Musical Compositions;

    4. On Seventh Claim for Relief, for an Order requiring that, on or before a date to be

    determined by this Court, Modular permit BMG to inspect, at Modular's place of business and

    manufacturing and distribution of phonorecords pursuant to the parties' Agreements;

    5. On all Claims for Relief, for an award of pre judgment and post judgment interest

    from the date of the breaches and unlawful conduct, attorneys fees pursuant to contract and costs

    of this action against all Defendants; and

    6. For any further relief the Court should deem just and proper.
