Software Escrow Agreements


SOFTWARE ESCROW AGREEMENTS

Escrow Associates' software escrow services are bound by a software escrow agreement. The final terms of the software escrow agreement dictate the escrow services provided by Escrow Associates, LLC and the release process of the escrowed materials. Since each software transaction may differ from the next, Escrow Associates, LLC offers the flexibility of tailoring these agreements to best suit the needs of the parties. Escrow Associates, LLC offers a variety of escrow service levels to directly match the clients' needs for escrow protection.

Standard Three-Party Software Escrow Agreement

The three-party software escrow agreement is most commonly utilized by end-users that require the highest level of protection for their licensed software. End-users with unique escrow requirements and/ or highly customized technology select the three-party software escrow agreement. All parties negotiate and execute the escrow contract, which dictates the manner in which the escrow deposit will be administered by Escrow Associates, LLC.

Master Two-Party Software Escrow Agreement

Multiple licensee service levels can be managed under a single two-party escrow agreement, an exclusive industry service by Escrow Associates, LLC.

Standard Licensee - provides escrow protection under the terms of the existing software escrow agreement.

Registered Licensee - reserved for those specific scenarios where the default escrow contract terms do not match the licensee's needs. This service allows the software developer the ability to continue to leverage existing contracts, while providing particular licensees with specific contractual escrow terms. In summary, this feature alone will save both parties substantial money over negotiating and establishing separate agreements for each individual escrow requirement.

This combination of Standard Beneficiaries and Registered Beneficiaries provides a technology company a level of corporate escrow services that is unmatched in the industry. This master escrow agreement satisfies all escrow requirements without having to manage multiple escrow agreements. We encourage our clients to closely scrutinize these agreements to ensure each party's interests are carefully considered. Alternative escrow agreements may also be used if they are considered more suitable for the needs of the particular transaction without an additional fee from Escrow Associates, LLC.
