Written Notice and Rider Clause Samples
The Written Notice and Rider clause establishes the requirement that any modifications, additions, or important communications related to the contract must be made in writing and formally attached as a rider to the original agreement. In practice, this means that verbal agreements or informal emails are not sufficient to alter the contract; instead, changes must be documented, signed by all parties, and appended to the contract as an official rider. This clause ensures that all parties have a clear, traceable record of any amendments, thereby reducing misunderstandings and disputes over the terms of the agreement.
Written Notice and Rider. Where nudity and/or acts of a sexual nature are required of an Equity member in the course of a stage presentation, the member must be so advised in writing in advance, when possible, of the Artist signing the contract. In addition, these requirements must be stipulated in a rider to the Artist's contract. Where the requirements arise in the course of rehearsal and the Artist involved gives said Artist’s consent, these requirements shall be stipulated in a rider to the contract to be signed by both the Artist and the Engager, and immediately filed with Equity. The Artist is not obligated to give such consent. Should the Artist refuse consent and should the Engager decide to replace the Artist, the Engager shall immediately pay the Artist the remainder of the contractual fee and applicable benefits, and neither party will have any further obligations to one another.
Written Notice and Rider. Where nudity and/or acts of a sexual nature are required of an Artist in the course of a stage presentation, these requirements must be stipulated in the Artist's COA Engagement Contract. However, in the event that these requirements arise in the course of a rehearsal, the Artist(s) who are required to participate must sign a rider agreeing to the requirements of nudity and/or sexual acts. A copy of this rider will be filed by both Artist and Engager with Equity. The Artist is not obliged to give such consent. Should the Artist involved refuse to perform sexual acts or appear nude and should the Engager decide to replace the Artist, the Engager shall immediately pay the Artist the remainder of the fee due to the Artist under the terms of the Artist's COA Engagement Contract to the originally specified termination date, and the Artist shall have no further obligation to the Engager.
Written Notice and Rider. Where nudity and/or acts of a sexual nature are required in the course of a stage presentation, the actor must be so advised in writing in advance of his/her signing the contract and the script shall be submitted to him/her for prior review if he/she so requests. In addition, these requirements must be stipulated in a rider to the Artist’s contract. Where these requirements arise in the course of rehearsal and the Artist involved gives his/her consent, they shall be stipulated in a rider to the contract to be signed by both the Artist and the Theatre and immediately filed with Equity. The Artist is not obliged to give such consent. Should the Artist involved refuse said consent and should the Theatre decide to replace the Artist, then the Theatre will pay to the Artist a penalty equal to double the applicable termination settlement or compensation for each week to the end of the run of the production, whichever is the lesser amount.
