Yes. If the total paid to the players is below the final players' share, they get all of their escrowed money returned (with interest) plus a bonus equal to whatever the underpayment was.

IIRC, since 2006, there have been a couple of seasons where the players received a bonus at the end of the year. There have also been a few years where the players have received almost all of their escrowed money back.
