A Source Code Escrow Agreement becomes necessary when organizations rely on mission-critical software applications and need to ensure business continuity. This agreement, structured under Singapore law, provides a secure mechanism where the source code owner deposits their intellectual property with a trusted third party, while maintaining confidentiality and protecting their rights. The agreement specifies clear release conditions, typically including business failure, bankruptcy, or breach of maintenance obligations by the software owner. It's particularly relevant in Singapore's technology-focused business environment, where software dependencies are common and require robust legal protection.
