The amount resulting from applying such percentage to the Gross Marketplace Revenue will be the "Revenue Share Fee." "Gross Marketplace Revenue" means fees actually collected by AdvertiseCast from Podcast Advertisers in connection with any Ads served to the Publisher Network, less AdvertiseCast's commission.

For Publishers opting out of AdvertiseCast automated payouts, an invoice will be required in order to be paid for completed ad spots, which will be paid following the completion of the ad spots AND payment has been received from Advertiser.
