MINIMUM RATES ONLY:
The rates in this rate card are minimum rates only. Agents and performers are free to negotiate rates with producers/ advertisers in excess of the rates set out herein, provided that where a single television track is intended to run with different tags (as defined) in a large national campaign that is substantial in nature and there are to be multiple tags produced in one session, then the agents and performers may negotiate rates other than those set out in this rate sheet.

If the rescheduled call is cancelled within the postponement period a cancellation fee is payable.

Where use exceeds the contracted period a rollover must be paid. The producer/advertiser must advise the agent before this occurs and arrange for the rollover fee to be paid. Rollovers are charged at current rates.
SUBMISSIONS:
“Submission” is defined as a recording where a performer is asked to voice a proposed script for a commercial for demonstration purposes only. A submission track may be broadcast provided a final/ broadcast fee is paid. If a track is a submission, this must be notified to the agent at the time of booking otherwise the full fee is payable. It will be assumed, unless otherwise notified, that all submissions (excluding research-only tracks) are going to air.
