Sample Escrow Contracts
Escrow protects investments in cases where the buyer does not receive all of the information required for the maintenance of the purchased product. If the product is not strictly software, for example a machine, a factory, an industrial unit, a ship or real estate, the material to be deposited usually consists of construction documents, maintenance plans, procurement lists, software source codes, firmware source codes, designs and further documents. The various components have to be checked individually and the updates usually have to be run at different times.
