(4) Requirements of networks. The submission requirements of this
subsection shall apply to a satellite carrier only if the network to
which the submissions are to be made places on file with the Register of
Copyrights a document identifying the name and address of the person to
whom such submissions are to be made. The Register of Copyrights shall
maintain for public inspection a file of all such documents.
(c) No Royalty Fee Required. A satellite carrier whose secondary
transmissions are subject to statutory licensing under subsection (a)
shall have no royalty obligation for such secondary transmissions.
(d) Noncompliance with Reporting and Regulatory Requirements.
Notwithstanding subsection (a), the willful or repeated secondary
transmission to the public by a satellite carrier into the local market
of a television broadcast station of a primary transmission embodying a
performance or display of a work made by that television broadcast
station is actionable as an act of infringement under section 501, and
is fully subject to the remedies provided under sections 502 through 506
and 509, if the satellite carrier has not complied with the reporting
requirements of subsection (b) or with the rules, regulations, and
authorizations of the Federal Communications Commission concerning the
carriage of television broadcast signals.
