Open first-party text on exclusions is thin. A 2008 lawyer's article states the guaranteed strike price excludes some items (example: marketing and publicity), that guarantors generally cannot provide a 'financial guarantee' about the initial budget financing, that cash funding must be in hand as a pre-condition, and that director final-cut rights may be lost if spending reaches a share of contingency. Telefilm's 2016 policy says it will not participate in financing overages and sets rules for no-claims rebates. Specific exclusion lists in real guarantee contracts (e.g. insurable events, music, cast breakage) were not found in the pages read; Screen Australia's wording about exclusions was seen only in a search snippet.
