Patent License Agreement
A Patent License Agreement grants rights to use, manufacture, or sell an invention covered by a patent. This playbook focuses on negotiating royalty structures, field-of-use restrictions, and ownership of improvements.
Confidentiality Obligations
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that confidentiality obligations are comprehensive and align with the company's business goals. Negotiate for clear definitions of exceptions, duration, and remedies to protect sensitive information effectively.
Advocate for reasonable exceptions to confidentiality obligations to allow necessary disclosures. Ensure that the duration of obligations is not overly burdensome and that remedies for breaches are fair.
Essential elements

Protection Standards

Example clauses
FAVORABLE
Comprehensive Confidentiality Clause
"Each party agrees to maintain in strict confidence all Confidential Information received from the other party. The receiving party shall use the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to protect the Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature. The receiving party shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of the disclosing party, except as permitted under this Agreement."
NEUTRAL
Standard Permitted Disclosure
"The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, or subcontractors who have a need to know such information for the purposes of this Agreement, provided that such employees, agents, or subcontractors are bound by confidentiality obligations no less stringent than those contained herein. The receiving party shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its employees, agents, or subcontractors."
UNFAVORABLE
"The obligations of confidentiality shall not apply to any information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving party; (b) is lawfully received from a third party without any breach of a confidentiality obligation; (c) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or reference to the disclosing party's Confidential Information; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law or by a governmental authority, provided that the receiving party gives the disclosing party prompt written notice of such requirement and cooperates with the disclosing party in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy."
High-Risk Projects
Fallbacks
Cross-Border Transactions
For cross-border transactions, ensure compliance with international data protection laws and consider additional clauses for data transfer and storage.
