This agreement describes the fees that your project will pay for utilization of the Slated platform and related opportunity matching system. By signing this agreement, you are agreeing to these fees.
In order to make your project visible on the Slated platform, you will need to activate and maintain a Marketplace Access subscription, with recurring fees charged to your project on a monthly or annual basis. The Marketplace Access subscription will allow you to control your project’s visibility and activate your project’s opportunities to match & message with Slated members, including cast, crew, directors, producers, investors, executive producers, sales agents, and distributors. The terms and pricing for the Marketplace Access subscription will be provided during the subscription activation process.
In the event that your project is financed, sold or distributed using attachments made via the Slated platform, your production will be charged additional Marketplace Fees, as specified below.
NOTE: If your project never goes into production and is not released, Slated will not charge Marketplace Fees.
Fees, Conditions and Due Dates
Your production will be charged for successfully finding and attaching key team members via the Slated platform, as listed below:
Marketplace Fees for investor or executive producer attachments are due when your project goes into production. Sales and distribution fees are collected from revenues after release. Net profits are due after your project recoups 120% of its production budget.
Fees payable to Slated from the production budget must be paid in full no later than the first day of principal photography. You agree to provide Slated with a copy of the full production budget in advance of paying the fee.
What does “via the Slated platform” mean?
“via the Slated platform” means that you’ve used the Slated opportunity matching and messaging system to introduce yourself and/or your project to people and companies who subsequently became attached to your project.
How does Slated define “net profits?”
“Net profits” are any and all revenue received by or credited to your project from any and all sources after your project recoups 120% of the cost of production, including any deferred fees (capped at 20% of budget). The definition of net profits shall be no less favorable than the definition accorded to any other participant and there shall be no other earlier or more favorable definition. Slated’s portion of net profits shall be accounted for and paid on a most favored nations basis with all other participants, and Slated shall have customary audit and accounting rights on a most favored nations basis with all participants. In addition, you agree to engage an approved collection account manager (Fintage and Freeway are pre-approved), and to include Slated as a party to the collection account management agreement so we can receive our portion of net profits directly.
When, and how, do I make my Slated Marketplace Fees payment?
Slated will invoice your production. The invoice will reflect the budget and note which attachments came via Slated; payment will be due upon commencement of principal photography (or as otherwise noted on the invoice). Payment may be made via wire transfer (instructions will be included on the invoice).
What on-screen credits does Slated receive?
Subject to distributor approval, an "In Association With Slated" company credit on a single card and animated logo credit in the main titles, adjacent to all other production company credits, in a size, type, style and duration no less favorable than any other company credit on the film. Slated’s “In Association With” credit and bug logo shall also appear in the billing block, in paid advertisements and wherever else the billing block appears, including in ancillary materials, in a size, type, style and duration no less favorable than any other production company credit.
