Each EP may receive a budgeted US$43,333.33 producer services fee at production commencement, only as earned and authorized under a signed services agreement and the escrow release terms. The combined fees are US$129,999.99, leaving US$1,170,000 of the proposed capital for other production costs. The proposal treats fees separately from capital recoupment; they do not reduce the capital balance or the premium base. These are disclosed production expenses for actual services, not guaranteed investment returns. This is a proposed fee for the initially financed production only; it is not an automatic fee for every future season or episode. The amount and services must be justified in the approved budget.

The waterfall applies to receipts available for distribution under the financing and collection agreements, not every dollar of ticket sales or gross revenue. The agreements must define permitted distributor/platform fees, taxes, collection costs, expenses, reserves, senior obligations, reporting, and audit rights. The three equal shares must be reconciled to the cent. Website support and other financing must be reconciled before closing to avoid double funding or conflicting repayment rights.

Proposed funding method: bank wire to the production escrow specified in executed agreements. The escrow agent, account, funding conditions, release milestones, and refund terms must be established before funds are requested. Email Chris to request the documents. Verify the beneficiary and wiring instructions independently with the appointed escrow agent using a trusted contact number before sending money. No banking details or investment payments are collected through Shopify.

The financed production scope must be identified in the final agreements: development, pilot, specified episodes, or a specified season. No automatic ownership or participation in future seasons, sequels, spinoffs, remakes, merchandising, or the underlying intellectual property is granted by this page. Any continuing participation, renewal, dilution, buyout, or derivative-rights terms must be expressly negotiated. The 50% pool applies only to the rights and receipts defined in those agreements.

A television Executive Producer role requires agreed substantive producing responsibilities appropriate to the series. Capital contribution alone does not establish that role. Creative authority, packaging, management, reporting relationships, service periods, credit placement, and any continuing credit must be documented separately. A financing participant who does not perform qualifying producing functions should receive a separately negotiated financing acknowledgment rather than an automatic EP title.

Production escrow governs investment deposits and release for production. A separate collection account management agreement can appoint an independent administrator to receive exploitation revenues and apply the agreed recoupment schedule. Before closing, the parties must agree on permitted deductions, reserves, senior claims, reporting frequency, audit rights, payment timing, affiliate transactions, and the handling of library sales or distribution changes. No escrow agent or collection account is represented as already appointed.
