Step 1: The Agreement
We’re flexible. You can use either:
a) Your own preferred form of escrow agreement
- OR -
b) The SCEC standard agreement
In either case, we would be pleased to work with you to tailor an agreement to fit your requirements. We can create a unique, customized agreement just for you.

Step 2: Your Information
What information do you need to provide in the agreement? Not much. For both the software developer (licensor) and software customer (licensee), please provide:
- Full legal corporate name
- Address
- Phone number
- Contact person
- Description of the software to be placed in escrow

Step 3: Agreement Review
Once you send us the agreement by fax or e-mail, an experienced SCEC staff member will review the agreement and provide timely feedback on the terms and conditions of the agreement. We aim to be fast and efficient.

 |
Step 4: Execute Agreement
Multiple copies of the final agreement are signed by each of the parties. Each party will then receive a signed original of the final agreement.
|
 |
Step 5: Deposit Materials
The software developer (licensor) delivers the source code and other supporting documentation to SCEC. The materials that are typically deposited include the source code on CD-ROM, the source code on hard-copy, etc. There are only two things you must do:
- Ensure that source code commentary as well as other supporting documentation are in English.
- All materials must be accurately labeled and dated.
