	CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS
		A small percentage of highly successful models (usually defined as those who have earned over $200,000) are allowed to bargain their commission rate down to 15%, and a very small percentage of models (usually those who earn more than $500,000) are able to retain their own, actual managers and lawyers and negotiate their own contracts.
		Wilhelmina has acknowledged that such “mother agent” commissions regularly run as high as 10%, and are a material factor in the Defendant’s practice of charging models a standard commission of 20%.
		In the latter case, the agency withholds a percentage of the model’s fee representing the employer’s commission and places this withholding in a “reserve fund.” Once the model’s employer pays the agency, the reserve fund is supposed to be released to the model.
