The following e-filed documents, listed by NYSCEF document number (Motion 008) 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 195, 196, 197, 198, 199, 200, 201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 217, 218, 219, 220, 221, 222, 223, 224, 225, 226, 227, 228, 229, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 253, 254, 255, 256, 257, 258, 259, 260, 261, 262, 263, 264, 265, 266, 267, 268, 269, 270, 272, 273, 274, 275, 276, 277, 285, 286, 287, 288 were read on this motion to/for SUMMARY JUDGMENT(AFTER JOINDER. DECISION + ORDER ON MOTION Upon the foregoing documents, Capella International Inc’s (Capella) motion for summary judgment (Mtn. Seq. No. 003) must be granted in its entirety because (i) Capella is entitled to a declaration that the License Agreement (hereinafter defined) was properly terminated on March 9, 2011 based on Screen Media Venture LLC’s (Screen Media)’s material breach of the License Agreement by among other things failing to deliver accounting statements that accurately set forth the distribution of the films and for failing to pay the appropriate amount of money to Capella when due under the License Agreement, (ii) Screen Media breached the License Agreement and is liable for damages based on among other things Screen Media’s distribution on Popcornflix in violation of the License Agreement and because it hid and underreported its distribution of the films and did not pay the money due Capella that it was supposed to pay and (iii) all six of Screen Media’s causes of action fail as a matter of law because they are based on the incorrect assumption that the Termination Notice was not valid. No issues of fact exist to preclude this result (Alvarez v. Prospect Hosp., 68 NY2d 320, 324 [1986]). The Relevant Facts and Circumstances Reference is made to a certain License Agreement dated June 27, 2002 by and between Screen Media and Capella, as amended (the License Agreement; NYSCEF Doc. No. 191), pursuant to which Capella granted to Screen Media exclusive distribution rights to certain films in certain regions defined as the “Territory” and as set forth on Schedule B-1 of the License Agreement. Significantly, however, Capella limited Screen Media’s ability to distribute the films via the internet by only permitting such distribution where it was part of a traditional broadcast or cable sub-license and conditioned upon such technology being used where internet rights were not viewable outside of the territory: 2. Rights and Territories Licensed to Screen Media: Paragraph 2 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “Subject to payment of the Advance pursuant to Paragraph 3 hereof, Capella hereby grants to Screen Media the exclusive distribution rights to the linear version of the Pictures in the Media (as defined in the attached Exhibit E-1) and in all territories of the world, subject only to the “Outstanding Licenses” as provided in Paragraph 5 hereof or non-availability as set forth in the attached Schedule B-1 (the “Territory”). The so called “Internet Rights” are hereby granted to Screen Media only to the extent such rights are required as part of a traditional broadcast or cable sub-license and conditioned upon such technology being used whereby the Internet Rights may not be viewable outside of the Territory. All rights not specifically granted to Screen Media herein are hereby expressly reserved to Capella” (id., at 17 [emphasis added]). The parties agreed pursuant to the License Agreement, that Capella would have the right to audit Screen Media’s books and records to ensure that Screen Media was abiding by the License Agreement and to ensure that Capella was being paid in accordance with the License Agreement: 11. Audit Rights. Capella shall have the right to audit Screen Media’s books and records as they relate to the Pictures once per calendar year on 60 days written notice. Capella shall have the right to perform up to 3 additional audits per year to determine the fairness of all allocations (id., at 3). To facilitate Capella’s review and to corroborate that Capella was receiving all amounts due under the License Agreement, Screen Media agreed to furnish Capella with accounting statements together with appropriate payment each quarter: 13. Statements and Payments. Screen Media shall furnish to Capella accounting statements together with applicable payments on a quarterly basis within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter. Gross Revenues shall be reported on a cumulative and on a per picture basis; expenses and advances shall be accumulated. For purposes of recoupment of the Advance, the proceeds for each title are to be fully cross-collateralized (id., at 3). After conducting an audit in 2010 pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, based on Capella’s conclusion that Screen Media was in breach, Capella sent a notice (the Termination Notice; NYSCEF Doc. No. 205), dated March 9, 2011, purporting to terminate the Licensing Agreement due to Screen Media’s failure to submit certain statements, make payments, and disclose certain distribution deals in accordance with the License Agreement: [Y]ou are contractually obligated corresponding to clause 13. of the Agreement, to render statements and payments 60 days after the applicable quarter. You have failed to comply these statements and payments in time. Once more the statement for the fourth quarter of 2010 is due since the 28th of February and we have not received it yet…Also you have told us, for example, that on Agreement #100487 you have not delivered our Materials to CP Media and that the agreement had not been executed. We have checked on this and figured out, that CP Media do actually distribute our titles and that these titles were offered over the Internet as well. For some of the titles we have even found out that CP Media has even renewed their distribution agreement with Screen Media from 2013 until 2018, as it is the case for the film “Austin Powers” for example…Since the cure period has elapsed and you as the Distributor have failed to cure the breach of the Agreement, it is hereby notified that: 1. The Agreement is hereby terminated effective immediately and all rights granted to Distributor thereunder in connection with the Picture revert to Licensor… (id., at 1 [emphasis added]) Notably, the parties provided that certain distribution costs should be advanced and recouped by Screen Media before payments are made to Capella. Attorneys’ fees in disputes with Capella, however, are not included: 8. Distribution Costs. To be advanced and recouped by Screen Media. “Soft” casts (i.e., trade ads, convention expenses, promotion, marketing, etc.) shall be capped at 5 percent of Gross Revenues, as that term is herein below defined, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. There shall be no cap on “hard” costs (i.e., preparation and printing of sales sheets, tape duplication and shipping, mastering, Nielsen ratings, insurance, satellite feeds, dubbing, editing, subtitling, etc.). Both “soft” and “hard” costs shall be limited to Screen Media’s actual, out-of-pocket costs paid to third parties. All costs incurred which relate to multiple pictures shall be allocated among such pictures in a fair and reasonable manner. (id., at 2-3) Following the Termination Notice, Capella sent out a second letter to Screen Media dated April 5, 2011 (NYSCEF Doc. No. 211), itemizing Screen Media’s alleged material breaches of the Agreement based on: (i) improper allocations of gross revenues, (ii) failure to pay a certain advance amounts, (iii) extending distribution agreements with third parties beyond the term of the License Agreement, (iv) overcharging costs that were deducted from gross revenues due to Capella, and (v) continued failures to provide accounting statements and make payments. Subsequently, Capella became aware that during the term of the License Agreement, Screen Media had caused the licensed films to be streamed on Popcornflix, a video-on-demand streaming service, in breach of Screen Media’s limited “Internet Rights” under the License Agreement. For its part, Screen Media rejected Capella’s purported termination, arguing in sum and substance that the License Agreement can not be terminated because (i) Screen Media paid an advance to Capella and Capella could not therefore claim underpayment, and (ii) the attempt to terminate the Licensing Agreement constituted a breach of the Licensing Agreement by Capella (NYSCEF Doc. No. 212). In addition, Screen Media asserted that, even if Capella did have the right to terminate the License Agreement, such termination would not impact sublicenses entered into between Screen Media and third parties (id.). Screen Media sued Capella by summons and complaint dated December 11, 2012 (NYSCEF Doc. 1) for the allegedly wrongful termination and ensuing contracting with third parties, asserting six causes of action: (i) breach of contract, (ii) tortious interference with prospective economic advantage, (iii) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, (iv) tortious interference with contract, (v) trade defamation and libel, and (vi) unjust enrichment (NYSCEF Doc. No. 1,
