In the event the Agency is unable to collect any or all of such Gross Receipts from any third party you agree to suffer the loss along with the Agency.
The Agency makes NO GUARANTEE of placement in any field. You ARE guaranteed first class representation and promotion if you follow the procedures of updated photos, composite cards and/or actor’s headshot cards.

You understand and acknowledge that you are NOT an employee of the Agency or of its direct or indirect client(s); rather you are for all purposes an independent contractor.
You understand and agree that in the event of the termination of this Agreement for any reason any compensation due to the Agency hereunder (including but not limited to residual payments and/or compensation due with respect to renewals or extensions of engagements obtained or contracts entered into during the term hereof) shall be paid to the Agency in a timely manner.
You agree to faithfully and diligently render first class services for and in connection with any engagement procured for you by the Agency. If you fail to do so, the Agency may, in its sole discretion, elect to terminate this Agreement upon notice to you, without prejudice to any claims the Agency may have against you, including without limitation with respect to any Commissions which may become due or payable. Upon such termination, you will pick up all of your property from the Agency, it being understood that the Agency will not hold any such property longer than thirty (30) days after the termination date.
You covenant and agree: (i) to not seek any employment opportunity through any third party agency during the term hereof without the prior written consent of the Agency, (ii) to not work for any client or other third party introduced to you by the Agency for a period of two (2) years after termination of this Agreement, and (iii) to use best efforts to notify the Agency at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the scheduled call time of any cancellation.
You hereby appoint the Agency as your lawful agent with full authority to demand, collect, and receive in your name any and all payments, whether by check, cash or otherwise, to which you may become entitled pursuant to services rendered by you in the entertainment fields referenced above, and to collect and deposit any checks or other instruments for the payment of monies that may be payable to your order, and to sign photographic releases.
