LÜK may provide additional Services from time to time, as detailed in LÜK Policies.
      2. LÜK is not a Talent Agency. Customer understands and acknowledges that LÜK is not a Talent Agency.

Accordingly, LÜK shall not have any liability whatsoever to any direct or related party in connection with a Booking whether with respect to the terms, provisions, timeliness, quality, activities, payment, facilities, Talent, or any other obligation or component thereof.

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, such Booking Details shall include, but not be limited to, the total rate for the relevant booking, including the Rate Breakdown. For purposes of this Section, "Rate Breakdown" shall mean the (a) the portion of the total rate constituting the day/work rate, and (b) such portion of the total rate constituting usage. In the event that the Customer fails to provide LÜK with the Rate Breakdown, Customer explicitly authorizes, acknowledges, and instructs LÜK to apply a Rate Breakdown to the particular booking using its commercially reasonable discretion (such resulting Rate Breakdown, a "LÜK Rate Breakdown"). Customer understands and agrees that it shall remain solely responsible for and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless LÜK and any LÜK Personnel from and against any Losses stemming from the imposition of a LÜK Rate Breakdown. Booking Details shall be deemed final upon a Job Submission. Written requests to update Booking Details for a previously submitted Job Submission will be updated to the extent practicable, as determined by LÜK in its sole discretion.
    9. Packages. With respect to each Job Submission, LÜK will compile and present a multi-agency package ("Package") to Customer.

In the event that Customer wishes to make a correction or alteration to a Confirmed Booking, it shall contact LÜK in writing as soon as possible. LÜK will request such corrections or alterations with the relevant Talent Agency promptly following receipt of a Customer request. Customer requests to alter or modify a Confirmed Booking are subject to the Talent Agency Policies of the relevant Talent Agency. Notwithstanding a Customer request to cancel or modify a Confirmed Booking, Customer understands and acknowledges that it is responsible for the payment of all Fees charged by a Talent Agency in connection with a Confirmed Booking (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include such charges, fees, or other penalties imposed pursuant to the relevant Talent Agency Policies).
    10. Talent Agency Failure to Perform. LÜK is not responsible for the provision of Talent or performing any of the services identified in a Job Submission or Confirmed Booking. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, LÜK is not responsible and shall have no liability whatsoever in the event that (i) a Talent Agency fails to perform consistent with the requirements or details of any Confirmed Booking, or fails to honor any Booking or Talent options, holds, or other requests; or (ii) Talent fails to perform consistent with the requirements or details of any Confirmed Booking. Further, if Customer fails to provide necessary information, provides inaccurate information, or fails to timely provide information with respect to a Booking, Customer shall be exclusively liable for any costs, fees, charges, or expenses arising therefrom whether pursuant to the Talent Agency Policies or these Terms.
