No one but producers, prior presenters of the Play and stars of the Play may receive billing above the title, and no one except stars receiving billing above the title may receive larger or more prominent billing than that afforded to Authors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Authors need not receive billing in television, radio and outdoor advertising, directory advertising (e.g., "ABCs", except on Sundays in the New York Times); wherever only the title of the Play and the name and address of the theater in which the Play is being presented appears; and in paid print advertising 1/4 page or less or in other paid advertising and publicity, in which only the title of the Play, names of stars billed above the title, the name of the theatre, critics' quotes and/or ticket price scales appear, and on marquees. MTI shall have the right to use a so-called "billing box" and in such event, the size of the Authors' credit specified herein, and that accorded all others, shall relate to the size of the title of the Play as used in said billing block. Such advertisements using a billing box may provide separate credit outside of the billing box only for the names of stars billed above the title and the title of the Play.

The following credits shall appear on the title page of all programs and in all advertising and publicity wherever and whenever the full production credits are given, in a type size not less than accorded the designers of the Play, in substantially the following form:
