Strategic Alliance Agreement

A Strategic Alliance Agreement documents cooperative arrangements between entities for mutual benefit. This playbook highlights IP ownership, performance metrics, and termination strategies.

Price and Payment Terms

Why This Matters: Clear payment terms prevent disputes over timing and amount, mitigate financing risk, and preserve cash flow. Ambiguities can lead to payment delays and enforcement litigation.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Buyer:

Negotiate for a clear payment schedule with specific due dates and methods to ensure predictable cash flow. Consider including holdbacks to protect against potential breaches.

If you're the Seller:

Ensure the total price is inclusive of all applicable taxes and fees. Advocate for earnout provisions to maximize potential revenue based on performance targets.

Action framework

Fallbacks

High-Risk Projects

In high-risk projects, consider more stringent holdback conditions to mitigate potential losses and ensure compliance with performance targets.

International Transactions

For international transactions, specify a reliable financial institution for currency exchange rates to manage fluctuation risks effectively.

Startup Ventures

In startup ventures, flexible earnout provisions can incentivize growth and align interests between parties.
