Exclusivity in a contract is a special measurement that sets the conditions of cooperation of the customer with other services. It contains not only time limits but also special offers that customers receive when they work with the company of the seller. It also focuses on setting conditions for the seller, who will be protected from the client’s cooperation with other companies.
Yes, a properly written exclusivity agreement is legally binding and can be enforced by courts. Such documents usually contain penalties for breaking them, so it is advised to follow them to the letter. Note that exclusivity agreements don’t necessarily force you to keep a certain price for your product or services.
To state exclusive rights in a contract, you can use a special template chapter that is focused on the setting of exclusivity conditions. In some cases, it is just fully forbidden for the customer to work with other companies, while in others, exclusive rights are just followed with special conditions of work.
To draft an exclusivity agreement, you should focus on choosing a proper template. PandaDoc template contains all the important data, and even extras, which might be useful for specific demands. In such cases, you will only have to include your personal special offers, calculate the prices properly, and work on the fines.
