As the license agreement was changed into TF HF HU LC, the Plaintiff entered into a license agreement (hereinafter “instant agreement”).

After the Plaintiff’s total sales and payment are confirmed, the Plaintiff sent royalties under the instant contract to TCF, and settled the value-added tax by reporting the finalized price.
