If someone is providing a book as a sale to a reader, pocketing the money, and then not paying the author, I would assume that's illegal.
This "borrowing" agreement is basically written so that Amazon can change the payout at any time simply by changing the amount the set aside for that month that works as a base modifier. The agreement -- as it reads to me -- acts like Amazon can change that base modifying money amount whenever it wants.
That's why a flat rate would have been preferable.
