In their original agreement, Blunt received 13-percent and Perry took seven-percent of the royalties from the project. But when the album took off, Blunt's management renegotiated the deal with Atlantic to get a bigger cut, which Perry claimed Atlantic provided by illegally reducing her share of the profits.
