# Contract Review: [Document Name]
**Document Type:** SaaS Subscription Agreement
**Your Position:** Customer
**Counterparty:** Acme Software Inc.
**Risk Level:** Medium
**Document Status:** Draft / Executed on [date]
## Pre-Signing Alerts
- **Blank field:** Fee amount in Section 4.1 is "$____"
- **Missing exhibit:** Exhibit B (SLA) referenced but not attached
## Executive Summary
Standard vendor agreement with some one-sided terms. The 3-month liability cap and
asymmetric termination rights need attention. Data ownership is clear.
---
## Key Terms
| Term | Value | Location |
|------|-------|----------|
| Initial Term | 12 months | Section 8.1 |
| Auto-Renewal | 12-month periods, 60-day notice | Section 8.2 |
| Liability Cap | 3 months' fees | Section 10.2 |
| Governing Law | Delaware | Section 12.1 |

## Red Flags (Quick Scan)
| Flag | Found | Location |
|------|-------|----------|
| Liability cap < 6 months | Yes | Section 10.2 |
| Uncapped indemnification | No | -- |
| Unilateral amendment rights | Yes | Section 14.1 |
| No termination for convenience | No | -- |

## Risk Analysis
### Critical
**Limitation of Liability** (Section 10.2)
> "Liability shall not exceed fees paid in the preceding three (3) months"
- **Issue:** 3-month cap is below market standard (typically 12 months)
- **Risk:** For $120K annual contract, liability capped at $30K
- **Market Standard:** 12 months' fees
- **Negotiability:** Medium -- most vendors accept 6-12 months
- **Redline:** Change "three (3) months" to "twelve (12) months"
- **Fallback:** Accept 6 months as compromise
---
### Important
**Termination for Convenience** (Section 8.5)
> "Vendor may terminate for any reason upon 30 days notice"
- **Issue:** One-sided; customer lacks equivalent right
- **Market Standard:** Mutual termination rights
- **Negotiability:** High -- reasonable ask
- **Redline:** Add "Either party may terminate..." or change to "90 days"
---
### Reviewed & Acceptable
| Category | Status | Notes |
|----------|--------|-------|
| Data Ownership | OK | Customer owns all customer data |
| IP Rights | OK | Clear separation, no broad assignment |
| Confidentiality | OK | Mutual, 3-year term, standard exceptions |
| Governing Law | OK | Delaware -- neutral for commercial |
---
## Missing Provisions
| Provision | Priority | Why It Matters |
|-----------|----------|----------------|
| Data Export Rights | Critical | No guaranteed way to get data out on termination |
| SLA Credits | Important | 99.9% uptime stated but no remedy for breach |
| Price Increase Cap | Important | Renewal pricing uncapped |
**Suggested language for Data Export:**
> "Upon termination, Vendor shall make Customer Data available for export in CSV or JSON format for 90 days at no additional charge."
---
## Internal Consistency Issues
- Section 5.2 references "Exhibit C" but no Exhibit C exists
- "Confidential Information" defined in Section 3.1 but used lowercase in Section 7
---
## Negotiation Priority
| # | Issue | Ask | Negotiability |
|---|-------|-----|---------------|
| 1 | Liability cap | 12 months | Medium |
| 2 | Termination rights | Mutual | High |
| 3 | Data export | Add provision | High |
| 4 | Price cap | 5% annual max | Medium |
