This leads to a question – how are we handling the breakdown of registration codes for the curated talks?

Example,

 

I have curated two 25-minute talks with 1 speaker each.  So my assumption is each speaker gets a 50% registration code, correct?

Each of the 25-minute short talks receives one 50% discount code, yes.

 

I have curated two 25-minute talks.  1 has 1 speaker and 1 has 4.  So my assumption is that one speaker gets a 50% registration code, and the other 4 get a 12.5% registration code.  Is that also correct?

That is incorrect. There is one 50% discount code for the second talk: the authors get to "discuss" who gets to use it.

 

In long talks where there are 2 speakers – if one speaker is dropped to proceed with the registration, does that speaker get a %100 discount code and the other waits?

Not sure who "that" refers to, but there is one 100% discount code: once all the authors have signed their speaker agreements, one of the authors can use that code. I believe you are asking about this sequence:
  1. Two authors A and B
  2. A has a slow corporate legal department and thus temporarily removes herself from the talk, leaving one author: B
  3. B e-signs
  4. B receives, and can use, the 100% discount coupon
  5. A's legal department says yes, A re-adds herself and e-signs
  6. B has already used the discount coupon so A registers as a normal person

Alternatively, if A wanted to use the coupon code, the sequence would be:
  1. Two authors A and B
  2. A has a slow
  3. corporate legal department and thus temporarily removes herself from the talk, leaving one author: B
  4. B e-signs
  5. B receives, but does not use the 100% coupon code. B registers as a normal person.
  6. A's legal department says yes, A re-adds herself and e-signs
  7. A now receives and uses the 100% discount coupon.
