Status: DRAFT FOR LAWYER REVIEW ONLY — not legal advice. Variant code: POST-HIGH Base: Schedule or successor to CARE / TEST-LOW. 18+ only.

> Deployed mirror: includes/contracts/intermediation-variant-upfront-post-test-high-en.md

Cover notice

Draft for counsel. Bracketed numbers editable.
No signature required to apply.
Use this after a successful testing period (`TEST-LOW`) or for Clients who already trust the desk and accept a higher mediation cost.
Model is not charged a roster fee. Upfront / package fees are paid by Client unless counsel designs a rare voluntary Model micro-fee (same hard caps as TEST-LOW).

Parties

Same as CARE: Model (18+), Desk, Studio / Client.

1. When this variant applies

Client completed a successful test under TEST-LOW, or
Client and Desk agree in writing to start on the post-test rate card without a low trial (e.g. known agency relationship).

Model’s consent is still required for each booking’s scope and hard limits.

2. Fees after testing (HIGH)

Item	Who pays	Who receives	Default
Model day rate / agreed fee	Client	Model	100%
Desk booking fee (ongoing)	Client	Desk	`[20–22]%` of Model’s day rate
Optional relationship package	Client	Desk	`[€400–€750]` one-time or annual (covers elevated intro/admin) — only if written
Roster / join fee from Model	—	—	None
Apply without booking	—	—	€0

Example: Day rate €600 → Model €600; Client pays Desk €132 at 22% (plus package only if already agreed in writing).

Industry overlays still apply when the booking is wardrobe, adult studio, or licensed venue — see intermediation-schedule-commission-by-industry-en.md. If both POST-HIGH and an industry % apply, the booking sheet states one clear % (do not stack silently).

3. Preferred stack rule

Booking sheet controls the single desk % and any package for that day.
Default recommendation after success: CARE `[18]%` if Client prefers simplicity; POST-HIGH when Client demanded a higher intro cost or elevated compliance.
For licensed NL venue bookings, prefer the IND-RLD band (`[22–25]%`) even if CARE was used for studio days — compliance burden differs.

4. Model protections (unchanged)

Decline anytime; hard limits; private by default; non-exclusivity default.
No Model roster fee; no forced exclusivity; no passport holding; no debt bondage; no venue “bond” from Model.
Desk never forces the red-light / licensed-venue lane.
