Rulings
3 questions resolved against the text.
Which tier applies?
Canopy. Trains, fine-tunes, or serves machine learning models commercially. Section 5.2 reporting applies; the Section 5.1 royalty attaches when the Licensee makes Production Use and only to attributable revenue.
Sections 1.8, 3.1, 5.1
Is anything owed?
A quarterly Canopy Report. Section 5.1 imposes a royalty only when the Canopy Licensee makes Production Use.
Sections 5.1, 5.2
Can this be combined with copyleft?
Not with GPL or AGPL for a combined derivative work. Those licences forbid additional restrictions, and the royalty, Compute clause, and competing-offering restriction are additional restrictions. There is no automatic conversion that makes this disappear for current releases.
Sections 5.1, 6.1, 7.1

Other situations for this party.
