PLAYBOOK TEMPLATES

Material Transfer Agreement (MTA)

An MTA governs the transfer of tangible research materials between organizations. This playbook highlights confidentiality, permitted use, and ownership of resulting data or inventions.

Warranties and Representations

Why This Matters: Overly broad warranties increase risk exposure, while insufficient warranties offer limited recourse for defects.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Provider:

Negotiate for comprehensive warranties that cover product quality and compliance. Ensure remedies for defects are clearly defined and enforceable.

If you're the Recipient:

Limit warranties to express terms only and exclude implied warranties. Define a reasonable duration and scope to minimize liability.

Essential elements

1

Warranty Scope

Limits to express terms only.
2

Warranty Duration

Standard period, typically 12 months.
3

Remedies for Defective Products

Repair, replacement, or refund options.

Action framework

ACCEPT

Propose edits when warranty terms are too broad or vague.

EDIT

Reject clauses that expose excessive risk or lack clear remedies.

ADD

Add clauses to cover missing warranty aspects or compliance requirements.

PRO TIP

Always align warranty terms with industry standards and business objectives to manage risk effectively.

Alternative scenarios & positions

High-Risk Projects

In high-risk projects, warranties should be more comprehensive, covering additional aspects like safety and regulatory compliance.

International Transactions

For international deals, ensure warranties comply with local laws and consider currency fluctuations in remedies.

Technology Products

Technology products may require specific performance warranties and rapid response times for defect remedies.
