Article 12 Royalties
     1. Royalties arising in one of the States and paid to a resident of the other State may be taxed in that other State.
     2. However, such royalties may also be taxed in the State in which they arise and according to the laws of that State, but the tax so charged shall not exceed 10 per cent of the gross amount of the royalties.
     3. The competent authorities of the States shall by mutual agreement settle the mode of application of paragraph 2.
     4. The term "royalties" as used in this Article means payments of any kind received as a consideration for the use of, or the right to use, or the sale of, any copyright of literary, artistic or scientific work including cinematograph films and recordings for radio and television, any patent, trade mark, design or model, plan, secret formula or process, or for information concerning industrial, commercial or scientific experience, or for the use of, or the right to use, industrial, commercial, or scientific equipment.
     5. The provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply if the recipient of the royalties, being a resident of one of the States, carries on business in the other State in which the royalties arise, through a permanent establishment situated therein, or, in the case of a resident of Turkey, performs in the Netherlands independent personal services from a fixed base situated in the Netherlands, and the right or property in respect of which the royalties are paid is effectively connected with such permanent establishment or fixed base. In such case the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14, as the case may be, shall apply.
     6. Royalties shall be deemed to arise in one of the States when the payer is that State itself, a political subdivision, a local authority or a resident of that State. Where, however, the person paying the royalties, whether he is a resident of one of the States or not, has in one of the States a permanent establishment or a fixed base, with which the right or property giving rise to the royalties is effectively connected, and such royalties are borne by such permanent establishment or a fixed base, then such royalties shall be deemed to arise in the State in which the permanent establishment or a fixed base is situated.
     7. Where, by reason of a special relationship between the payer and the recipient or between both of them and some other person, the amount of the royalties paid, having regard to the use, right or information for which they are paid, exceeds the amount which would have been agreed upon by the payer and the recipient in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount. In such case, the excess part of the payments shall remain taxable according to the laws of each State, due regard being had to the other provisions of this Agreement.
