("Model") and Wilhelmina Models, Inc. ("Wilhelmina") hereby agree as
follows:
1. Model hereby engages Wilhelmina's services, and Wilhelmina accepts such engagement,
to act as Model's sole and exclusive Manager throughout the U.S.A. for the term of this
Agreement in the field of modeling. As such, Wilhelmina shall advise and counsel Model in any
and all matters regarding publicity and public relations and the general practices of the modeling,
entertainment, and advertising industries; advise and counsel Model regarding the proper formats
for Model to present himself/herself to third parties; including aspects of makeup, hair, photo
composites, and formation of a portfolio; and advise and counsel Model regarding placements or
referrals to secondary agencies in the United States or elsewhere.
2. Model hereby appoints Wilhelmina as Model's lawful Attorney-in-Fact with regards
to transactions with Wilhehnina and authorizes Wilhelmina to collect and receive monies on
Model's behalf, to endorse Model's name upon and deposit checks and other money transfers in
Wilhelmina's account with any bank, and to retain therefrom all sums due Wilhelmina at any
time. Model also authorizes Wilhelmina to approve and permit the use of Model's name,
photograph, likeness, and/or voice, and sign releases for the use of same on Model's behalf. This
authorization shall include the use of Model's name, photograph, likeness, and/or voice on all
materials used by Wilhelmina to promote itself, including, without limitation, headsheets, books,

respect to any matter for which Wilhehnina is entitled to compensation, thereafter. Model
hereby assigns to Wilhehnina the proceeds of all assignments performed by Model, against
which Wilhelmina has advanced payment to Model. If in accordance with Wilhelmina's voucher
system, Wilhehnina does not receive payment from a client who employs Model within six (6)

Wilhelmina for the sums advanced to Model by Wilhehnina in connection with that assignment.
Monies owed to Model from clients or advertising agencies, including, without limitation,
monies owed for cancellation fees, expenses, and foreign billings, will be paid to Model when
payment is received by Wilhelmina. Wilhelmina will take all reasonable steps to collect the
amounts due from clients for Model's services, and Model agrees that any claim against a client
for monies owed for those services will belong to Wilhelmina, which shall remit to Model the
net due to Model after deductions of Wilhehnina's entitlements. The risk of non-collection of
fees and expenses due Model from clients and/or advertising agencies in connection with

EFTA01201716
Model's vouchers, and the legal costs associated with attempts to collect such fees and expenses,
shall be borne entirely by Model, only upon consent of model .
3. Model agrees to seek Wilhelmina's counsel in regard to all matters concerning Model's
endeavors in the field of modeling. Model agrees to advise Wilhelmina of all offers of
employment submitted to Model anywhere in the world with respect to modeling and to refer
any inquiries concerning Model's services to Wilhelmina. Model acknowledges that Wilhelmina
is not an "artist manager" under the labor code of California, and that Wilhelmina is not licensed
as an employment agency in any jurisdiction. Model further agrees that Wilhelmina shall not be
required or expected to obtain offers of employment for Model. It is also acknowledged that the
relationship between Model and Wilhelmina is not a fiduciary relationship, and that Model is an
independent contractor. Model warrants that he/she will be wholly responsible for the payment
of any taxes owed by Model to any government or agency, and will not look to Wilhelmina to
provide any insurance coverage or satisfy any of Model's immigration obligations.
4. In consideration of Wilhelmina's entering into this agreement and as compensation for
the services to be rendered by Wilhelmina hereunder, Model agrees to pay Wilhelmina an
amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of any and all gross monies or other consideration which
Model receives as a result of any agreements (and any renewals or renegotiations thereof,
including for intemet usage) relating to Model's modeling services, throughout the world, that
are entered into during the term hereof. Wilhelmina, as manager, shall be entitled to receive
such percentage in connection with all reuse fees, and any modifications, additions, options,
extensions, renewals, substitutions for, and replacements of such engagements or contracts
directly or indirectly. It is understood that substitution and replacement do not extend to include
the shooting of material for a new campaign. In addition, Model agrees to pay Wilhelmina an
amount equal to ten percent (10%) of any and all gross monies derived from any television
commercials, industrial usages, and or renewal fees as those terms apply to television. Model
also authorizes Wilhelmina to collect a ten percent ( 10%) "mother agency" commission from
other agencies in those instances in which Wilhelmina acts as Model's mother agent. Model
agrees to pay or reimburse Wilhelmina for all out-of-pocket expenses which Wilhelmina incurs
from time to time on Model's behalf, except that any single expense over One Thousand Dollars
($1,000.00) must be pre-approved by Model. A schedule of the amounts charged by Wilhelmina
for certain items is annexed hereto (the amounts listed are subject to change with the passage of
time). Model hereby agrees that in the event Model refuses to fulfill her/his obligations under
this agreement, all obligations and liability, of any type, nature, or description, of Wilhelmina to
Model shall cease and terminate, and in such event, Wilhelmina may, at its sole election, (1)
retain as liquidated damages all funds then held and/or subsequently received by Wilhelmina on
Model's behalf, or (2) seek all legal and/or equitable remedies then available to Wilhelmina, in
which event Wilhelmina shall, pending the resolution of Wilhelmina's claims, be entitled to hold
the funds referred to in the preceding clause (1) as security for any judgment Wilhelmina may
obtain against Model in connection with those claims.
5. The term of this agreement shall be for a period of three (3) years commencing as of the
date hereof, and it will be automatically renewed for one (1) year unless Model or Wilhelmina
gives written notice to the other of the intention to terminate by registered mail at least ninety

(90) days prior to the end of the term hereof.
6. Any contracts for future usage (as that term is customarily used) of Model's modeling
services, name, photograph, likeness, or voice, including for use on the intemet, shall be handled
by Wilhelmina and Wilhelmina shall receive its compensation in connection therewith, until the
termination of such usages, regardless of the sooner expiration, termination, or modification of
this agreement.
7. Model is aware and agrees that Wilhelmina is entitled to receive a service charge from
all of the clients who utilize Model's services, and that such service charge at present equals 20%
of the gross monies or other consideration that Model receives from those clients as a result of
agreements relating to Model's modeling. Model further acknowledges and agrees that
Wilhelmina's receipt of a service charge or fee shall be an additional inducement for Wilhelmina
to act on Model's behalf, and that Wilhelmina's receipt of the service charge or fee is not, and
shall not be deemed to be, a violation of any duty of loyalty or any other obligation or duty owed
to Model.
8. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York applicable to agreements wholly made therein, and any dispute arising out of
this agreement shall be resolved only in the courts of the State and City of New York. Any
dispute regarding the interpretation of, or the parties' obligations under, this agreement shall
first be submitted to non-binding mediation (no longer than three (3) hours duration, unless
agreed to the contrary by the parties hereto in writing), to try to resolve any such dispute. In
any such mediation, the fees of the mediator shall be borne equally by the parties to the
mediation, except that Wilhelmina shall pay up to $1,000, with any fees in excess of that
amount to be shared equally by Model and Wilhelmina, and with both parties paying their own
attorneys' fees and costs.
