What is a Development Agreement?

A development agreement is a legal contract where a property owner will contract with local jurisdiction that the property is located in to develop the property. This real estate agreement dictates what can and will be done with the property.

A development agreement may include:

  • Rules and regulations for development of a property
  • Commitments and policies related to development of the property
  • Specific time frames for development of the property

These sections ensure the property is developed in accordance with what the local jurisdiction requires for the property (if anything) and is related to development by a developer and not an individual landowner.

Common Sections in Development Agreements

Below is a list of common sections included in Development Agreements. These sections are linked to the below sample agreement for you to explore.

2. Statement of Work, Prototype Systems, Development

 

  2.1 Statement of Work. The parties have set out in Addendum 2 (the SOW) the research and development activities that they will undertake in the course of this Agreement, signed by both parties. The parties may modify the SOW during the term of this Agreement only by a written amendment signed by both parties. Payments from Philips will be billed by Luna on a monthly basis based on the actual hours incurred on the Project at the agreed-upon hourly rates, and materials.

If the Project Managers disagree on this determination, then either may submit the matter for resolution by the Review Committee pursuant to Section 5 below.

 

  3.2 Unmet Criteria. If a Deliverable is determined not to meet its Acceptance Criteria, Luna shall continue to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to correct the aspects of the Deliverable leading to its failure to meet Acceptance Criteria (including any known nonconformities to Specifications) and consequently redeliver the corrected Deliverable. For avoidance of doubt, any such further efforts shall continue to be governed by Section 2.3(b) above.

 

  3.3 Failure to Meet Time Schedule

General. If Luna fails to deliver to PMS a Deliverable that meets applicable Acceptance Criteria by the end of the applicable Grace Period, PMS may, in its sole option, terminate this Agreement on [***] prior notice to Luna.

After such notice of termination, Luna shall no longer perform work on the Project, but PMS shall be still be responsible for any work previously performed by Luna, according to the payment terms of the applicable SOW. The Deliverable Due Dates set forth in the relevant SOW shall be considered adjusted to reflect any extensions to such original Due Dates granted by PMS in writing.

  (i) Luna shall defend or settle, at Luna’s own expense (unless Customer elects by written notice to do so itself at its own expense), any cause of action or proceeding brought against Customer by a third party that is based on a claim that the Product (including the Software) infringes any [***] patent or copyright. Luna shall indemnify and hold Customer harmless against any loss, liability or final judgment, including an award of attorney’s fees, that may be awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction against Customer to the extent resulting from such infringement; provided that Customer gives Luna prompt written notice of such cause of action or proceeding and provides Luna with reasonable cooperation and information in Customer’s possession with respect thereto.

  (ii) In the event of a claim that the Product infringes any [***] patent or copyright, or if Luna reasonably believes that a likelihood of such a claim exists, Luna may, in Luna’s sole discretion and at its own expense, procure for Customer the right to continue using the Product, modify the Product to make it non-infringing (but still compliant with the Specifications and Binding Purchase Order), or replace the Product with non-infringing product of substantially similar capability; provided, however, if none of the foregoing is commercially reasonably available to Luna, it may remove the Product from Customer’s premises, at Luna’s expense, and Luna shall refund to Customer the purchase price less a reasonable rental for past use thereof. Luna should use its commercially reasonable best efforts to assist Customer in defending against potential claims of infringement of patents and/or copyrights outside USA and accept return of the Products and Software in case of any such infringement.

17. General.

(a) The terms and conditions of this Agreement T&C’s shall be effective with respect to a given Product upon acceptance of the Binding Purchase Order for such Product.

(b) Except as expressly provided herein, in the event that the performance by Luna of any of its obligations under this Agreement T&C’s is prevented, restricted, delayed or interfered with by any circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Luna (a “Force Majeure Event”), then Luna shall, upon giving prompt notice to Customer specifying the circumstances and obligations concerned, be excused from such performance to the extent of such prevention, restriction or interference, provided that Luna shall endeavor to overcome the circumstances causing the non-performance and shall give prompt notice to Customer as soon as the performance of its obligations can be resumed. In the event that the period of prevention, restriction or interference mentioned in Section 17(b) continues or can reasonably be expected to continue for more than 30 days, Customer shall be entitled to rescind this Agreement T&C’s under Section 13(e).

(c) Any and all non-public documentation and information made available or disclosed by Luna to Customer in connection with a Product purchase hereunder shall be treated by Customer as Confidential Information in accordance with Section 8.

If there is a conflict between this Agreement T&C’s and any Binding Purchase Order, this Agreement T&C’s shall control and govern.

(n) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement T&C’s do not establish any precedent for, provide a basis for, or have any effect on, the negotiation of the terms and conditions or any commercial supply arrangement, collaborative research and development arrangement or any other agreement relating to the Products that the Parties and/or Luna may negotiate in the future. This Agreement T&C’s does not create an obligation any Party and/or Luna to enter into any further agreements with respect to the subject matter herein.

Chicago, IL

DePaul University College of Law

My name is Ryenne Shaw and I help business owners build businesses that operate as assets instead of liabilities, increase in value over time and build wealth. My areas of expertise include corporate formation and business structure, contract law, employment/labor law, business risk and compliance and intellectual property. I also serve as outside general counsel to several businesses across various industries nationally. I spent most of my early legal career assisting C.E.O.s, General Counsel, and in-house legal counsel of both large and smaller corporations in minimizing liability, protecting business assets and maximizing profits. While working with many of these entities, I realized that smaller entities are often underserved. I saw that smaller business owners weren’t receiving the same level of legal support larger corporations relied upon to grow and sustain. I knew this was a major contributor to the ceiling that most small businesses hit before they’ve even scratched the surface of their potential. And I knew at that moment that all of this lack of knowledge and support was creating a huge wealth gap. After over ten years of legal experience, I started my law firm to provide the legal support small to mid-sized business owners and entrepreneurs need to grow and protect their brands, businesses, and assets. I have a passion for helping small to mid-sized businesses and startups grow into wealth-building assets by leveraging the same legal strategies large corporations have used for years to create real wealth. I enjoy connecting with my clients, learning about their visions and identifying ways to protect and maximize the reach, value and impact of their businesses. I am a strong legal writer with extensive litigation experience, including both federal and state (and administratively), which brings another element to every contract I prepare and the overall counsel and value I provide. Some of my recent projects include: - Negotiating & Drafting Commercial Lease Agreements - Drafting Trademark Licensing Agreements - Drafting Ambassador and Influencer Agreements - Drafting Collaboration Agreements - Drafting Service Agreements for service-providers, coaches and consultants - Drafting Master Service Agreements and SOWs - Drafting Terms of Service and Privacy Policies - Preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries - Drafting Employee Handbooks, Standard Operations and Procedures (SOPs) manuals, employment agreements - Creating Employer-employee infrastructure to ensure business compliance with employment and labor laws - Drafting Independent Contractor Agreements and Non-Disclosure/Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements - Conducting Federal Trademark Searches and filing trademark applications - Preparing Trademark Opinion Letters after conducting appropriate legal research - Drafting Letters of Opinion for Small Business Loans - Drafting and Responding to Cease and Desist Letters I service clients throughout the United States across a broad range of industries.

Development Agreement

California

Asked on Jan 17, 2022

Are these clauses safe to sign into in an NDA?

A company approached me to help them develop a prototype of a software application, so they can secure a round of funding. To this end, they gave me an NDA to sign, after which they would divulge their design artifacts for my review. Good so far. But the NDA has these terms which I am concerned about: Intellectual property: At any point during and/or as a direct result of the signing of this Agreement when you create something for the purpose of fulfilling work for (co), said creation is considered work-made-for-hire and is owned by (co). This includes copyrightable material, trademarks, patents (a whole list), whether developed by you alone of in collaboration with anyone else (I am alone). The company owns everything. I got it. Now coming to another point: Indemnification Provision: if (co) of a (co) partner gets sued as a result of your work, you agree to step in and pay for all relevant costs, unless (co) has expressly instructed you in writing that you carry out the task for which (co) or its partner was sued While I would never knowingly carry out something illegal or attract lawsuit, as an individual I have limited knowledge. And besides, I feel this will leave me personally open to legal liability for indefinite period of time, even if someone else takes my code in continues development on it later Are my concerns legit? How should this be altered (if it should) so it is fair to me (if this is unfair)?

Cameron S.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

These are not appropriate provisions for an NDA. An NDA should only cover the disclosure of confidential information - not development and assignment of intellectual property. You should not be transfering ownership of IP (or anything you develop) under an NDA. It should also not include an indemnification provision. Both of these clauses are appropriate for a development agreement or a professional services agreement. Putting this aside, if this were a development/professional services agreement, then you probably would want to protect any background technology or pre-existing works that you already own prior to the agreement (and would license the (co) rights to this background technology if necessary). And, you should not be indemnifying unless you intentionally used third party materials or knowingly stole another party's work to complete the development for (co). This is because it is not feasible for you to know what trademarks or patents are out in the world. If what you develop infringes, that should not be your responsibility/risk. You probably aren't getting paid enough to take on that risk. Copyright requires knowing that you stole copyrightable material, so the knowledge qualifier described above means that the (co) is protected under the indemnification for copyright infringement issues caused by you.
