A. Series Regulars
1. Options Between Seasons: For new series contracts entered into on or after the first Sunday that is one year
after the AMPTP receives notice of ratification:
a) Money breaks for free bargaining:
(1) For performers other than minors employed on a children’s program, the money breaks increase
from $32,000 to $65,000 per week or per episode for half hour series and from $32,000 to $70,000 per
week or per episode for one hour series
(2)
For minors employed on children’s program, the money break remains $32,000 per picture or episode
b) For performers guaranteed less than the money breaks, the option period between seasons will be 18
months starting with the beginning of principal photography of the season. The option period may be
extended up to three times by a period of three months each in exchange for a non-creditable episodic
fee (based on the preceding season’s rate) per extension.
c) Start Date: Performer’s services (and compensation) on the series must commence within three months
following the end of the prior option period (and any applicable extensions). The three month period may
be extended by an additional two months in exchange for a non-creditable episodic fee (based on the
upcoming season’s rate).
d) The parties will recommend to the trustees of the health plan that for performers earning more than
the money breaks who receive a Notice of Termination of Benefits from the SAG-AFTRA Health Plan,
the producer will make a special payment to the Health Plan allowing the performer to be eligible for
coverage upon payment of the required premiums.

of 2 or 4 seasons (based on the series order). Under the tentative agreement, for a season that commences

away from their residence at Producer’s Base (other than Los Angeles), the minimum relocation allowance
increases to $5,000 per month for up to six (6) months (i.e., a maximum of $30,000) per season without a cap
on the number of seasons. This does not apply to any series performer who previously received the maximum
number of relocation allowances on a particular series under the terms of the 2017 or 2020 Agreements.
