Reasons why you might need a Deferral Agreement:
A portion of someone’s fee is delayed instead of being paid during production.
Repayment usually comes from leftover budget contingency or from the film’s revenue streams (e.g., adjusted gross receipts).

The participant typically cannot stop or interfere with the film if payment is delayed; their remedy is financial, not injunctive.
