Document background
The Simple Exclusivity Agreement is a fundamental commercial contract used when one party wishes to grant another party exclusive rights within a specific context or territory in Australia. This document is particularly relevant when businesses seek to establish protected commercial relationships, such as exclusive distribution arrangements, sole agency appointments, or territorial exclusivity rights. The agreement addresses key aspects required under Australian law, including competition law compliance, clear definition of exclusive rights, territorial scope, and duration. The Simple Exclusivity Agreement typically includes provisions for performance standards, termination rights, and protection mechanisms for both parties. It's designed to provide a clear framework for exclusive commercial relationships while ensuring compliance with Australian competition laws and regulations, particularly the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth).
