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.
Warranties & Reps
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that warranties are limited to material breaches and include reputable defenses. Clearly define the scope to avoid unnecessary liability.
Negotiate for comprehensive warranties that protect against defective or infringing IP. Ensure remedies are practical and enforceable.
Essential elements
1
Ownership Warranty
Assures sole ownership of IP.
2
Validity Warranty
Confirms IP is valid and enforceable.
3
Non-Infringement Warranty
Ensures no third-party infringement.
Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits when warranties are too broad or lack clarity on remedies.
EDIT
Reject clauses that expose to unlimited liability or lack material breach limitations.
ADD
Add clauses when warranties are missing or insufficient to protect interests.
PRO TIP
Always align warranty clauses with jurisdictional requirements to ensure enforceability.
Real-world examples

High-Risk Projects
Alternative scenarios & positions
