Question:

What does a producer have to do to obtain a completion guaranty?

Answer:

In order to determine whether a proposed film project presents an acceptable production risk, the completion guarantor will carefully examine and evaluate all significant factors facing the production. This process begins with the producer submitting to the completion guarantor the following main elements: script, budget, shooting schedule, résumés of key crew and descriptions of the project’s financiers and their respective financing commitments. Generally, completion guarantors prefer that the film's distributors and financiers approve these key elements before they are submitted, however the completion guarantor is usually prepared to thoroughly evaluate them beforehand.

After reviewing these main elements, the completion guarantor will want to meet with members of the production team, such as the individual producer, director and production manager, to obtain their views about the production budget, shooting schedule and other production matters. Sometimes, the producer chooses to adjust elements in light of recommendations made by the completion Guarantor. On the basis of these meetings and the final materials submitted, the completion guarantor determines whether the production can be produced, completed and delivered as presented. If the submission is approved, the completion guarantor will prepare the completion guaranty agreement and other necessary legal documents.

Following the receipt of the Objection Notice or Response, whichever is applicable, Guarantor shall have the following alternatives:

          (i) Delivery has been effected as aforesaid (and such notice shall constitute an Acceptance Notice for all purposes hereunder); or,

          (ii) Delivery has not been effected and Distributor has elected to submit the issue of whether Delivery has been effected (and such issue only) for expedited arbitration in accordance with paragraph 3(a) below
         ("Arbitration Notice").

               (A) Upon receipt of notice ("Arbitration Notice") from Guarantor or Distributor ("First Party") that it has elected to submit such dispute to arbitration, the party ("Second Party") receiving notice and the party serving notice shall each appoint one arbitrator with  knowledge and experience in the United States motion picture industry and the technical delivery issues relating to motion         pictures, and said arbitrators so selected shall then appoint a third arbitrator and shall give written notice thereof to both parties within two (2) days of such appointment; provided, however, that if    either Distributor or Guarantor shall fail to appoint its respective arbitrator within five (5) business days after receipt of the Arbitration Notice, then the arbitrator appointed by the other party               shall have full authority to act as the sole arbitrator of such arbitration; the two party-appointed arbitrators shall appoint the third arbitrator within ten (10) days of the appointment of the later        of the two (2) to be appointed, failing which, at the request of either party, the then President of the American Arbitration  Association, or his/her replacement in the event the President is              unavailable, shall be requested to appoint the third arbitrator within ten (10) days of the application.

          (ii) The arbitration shall commence at a location in Los Angeles, within twenty (20) business days after the selection of the three (3) arbitrators  ("Arbitrators"), and such arbitration shall continue on each consecutive  business day therefrom until fully concluded, unless continued by the      Arbitrators for good cause shown. Except as expressly provided for herein, such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the  commercial rules and procedures of the American Arbitration     Association then in effect;

          (iii) There shall be made available to the Arbitrators all relevant documents and the delivery materials. The parties shall participate in an  exchange of information before the hearing. The parties acknowledge  and agree that each party shall be entitled to reasonable discovery for the  purposes of any such arbitration, including (without limitation) document production and the taking of positions. The party desiring such discovery may apply to the Arbitrators at the outset of the arbitration for  particular discovery requests. The parties will make themselves and all        documents as may be required available so as to enable full and complete discovery in a timely fashion. The Arbitrators may deny only such discovery as is unreasonable or is intended unduly to delay the prompt conclusion of the arbitration;

          (iv) The Arbitrators must determine whether Delivery has been effected or has not been effected, and shall promptly notify the parties in writing  of the finding made.

          (v) The Arbitrators' award shall provide for payment by the losing party or parties of the Arbitrators' and any court reporter's fees, as well as the  reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the prevailing party in the arbitration.
