German term or phrase: spenden
Abrechnungsbasis im Handelsvertrieb ist der jeweilige Händlerabgabepreis (HAP), d.h. der jeweilige Abgabepreis der Firma an den Handel ohne Verkaufs-/Umsatzsteuer. Spenden, Handling-Charges und sonstige kundenindividuelle Sondervergütungen sind nicht Bestandteil des HAP. Spenden bedürfen in jedem Einzelfall der vorherigen schriftlichen Zustimmung des Künstlers. Handling-Charges und sonstige kundenindividuelle Sondervergütungen – die in den Rechnungslegungen ggü. Künstler gesondert auszuweisen sind, was auch bzgl. der sonstigen zwischen den Parteien bestehenden Verträgen gilt - dürfen ein Maximum von XX% nicht überschreiten.

This from a record company contract again. 'Donations' doesn't seem to fit. Subscriptions maybe? Can anybody shed some light on what this is about?

Thanks for the help.
