French term or phrase: sur toute recette nette
First of all my apologies for the way I am asking this question. To me, this paragraph does not make sense (but I have been working very hard) and I cannot work it out. The words are clear but any help as to the meaning would be very gratefully received,
c) sur toute recette nette perçue par l’EDITEUR, si l'exploitation est faite par lui-même, à l’occasion de l'exploitation de l'OEUVRE et de tous arrangements de cette OEUVRE sous une forme, par un moyen et dans un but non mentionnés dans le présent contrat, ni même prévisibles à la date de sa signature, mais que l’AUTEUR le reconnaît et l’accepte expressément, l’EDITEUR peut et pourra utiliser sans aucune exception ni réserve, en vertu de la cession que l’AUTEUR lui fait par l’article I du présent contrat, pour le présent et pour l’avenir, de la totalité de son droit de propriété incorporelle, exclusif et opposable à tous, à l'exception des attributs d’ordre intellectuel et moral compris dans ce droit sur l’OEUVRE

on all net revenue deriving from this work
Explanation:
The publisher has all rights, present and future, in all ways imaginable or not even imaginable yet, to profit from the work in all forms and derivations. The author has given all these rights for some agreed fee, defined elsewhere (and possibly increased by some part of the net revenue after complex calculation of what the publisher deems expenses. The right is given as exclusiveand complete to the intellectual property, to the exclusion of any other claims, except for some inalienable right of the creator to use certain aspects of the work and its intrinsic content: the concept of "intellectuel et moral". But not its form protected by intellectual property law.
Does that help a bit ? ?

agree  Sylvia Smith: yes, just 1 small comment: "income" rather than "revenues" (revenues are everything that come in, then items are deducted to arrive at net income - "net revenues", though used occassionally, is technically incorrect). // Cheers Michael :)
