An agreement granting a recipient the right to use certain patented or unpatented materials for specified uses, such as the recipient's own research activities. The agreement also includes an option for the material provider to enter into a license agreement granting it a license to use certain patented technology the recipient creates from its use of the transferred material. The document is drafted in the provider's favor but aims to be reasonable and includes provisions common to negotiated material transfer agreements. This Standard Document has integrated notes with important explanations and drafting and negotiating tips.
