This is from a funding agreement between a Canadian broadcaster and a Canadian film production company.
It is taken from the section of the agreement that specifies the broadcaster's licensing and other rights.
Here is the full entry:
Autres droits:
Vous concedez a (the broadcaster) les droits de diffusion supplementaires et d'exploitation suivants :
droits exclusifs d'exploitation pour le Marche au detail de la Video au Canada pour une duree de cinq (5) ans a compter de la premiere exploitation, en contrepartie du paiement au Producteur d'une redevance des revenus bruts qui sera etablie suivant les negociations du Producteur et de (the broadcaster) a cet effet;
I'm confused as I've seen droits d'exploitation translated as exploitation rights and I've also seen première exploitation translated as first release.
If première exploitation is indeed first release, what about droits d'exploitation? Should it be left as exploitation rights? Somehow, I don't think so.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

: Spot on! Have practical experience with copyright law/licensing in filmmaking. Right of exploitation is the right to profit from broadcast. first release / first broadcast is exactly that (initial broadcast) and tied to the producers moral rights.

Discussion
Exploitation is also used in English in licensing and copyright agreements and simply refers to the ability to "exploit" it for profit or any other benefit.
Premiere exploitation: is first broadcast (or screening if it is a film) or first exercise of the right of exploitation and this is an important legal marker.
Some possibles:
-- distribution rights (pour le marche au detail de la video au Canada) since this presumably involves video rental issues
-- premiere exploitation isn't so much first release, I don't think, as something more akin to "first distribution" or "first use of these rights you're being granted" -- so the rights run 5 years from the first time the license is made use of (I think).
You could possibly even use "broadcast rights" though the context above implies a distinction between "diffusion" (broadcast) and "exploitation" (...use/distribution/??).
Let's hope someone with industry knowledge comes along. :)
