Rulings
3 questions resolved against the text.
Which tier applies?
Canopy. Large organisation with procurement, legal review, and an SBOM process. 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
What can an audit actually require?
Documentation once in any twelve month period, absent a documented reason to suspect misstatement. Where such a reason exists, an independent auditor may review under mutual NDA at the requesting party's expense, unless an underpayment above five percent is established, in which case you bear the reasonable cost.
Sections 5.3
Cautions
What this situation gets wrong most often.
Section 8.3 forbids imposing a user ceiling, a regional exclusion, or an output-training restriction downstream where this licence imposes none. That prohibition is the point of the instrument.

Other situations for this party.
Non-normative. Where this and the licence text disagree, the licence text applies.
