Exclusive Songwriter Agreement

For a publisher building a roster, this agreement puts a songwriter’s exclusive relationship on solid footing: term length and option periods, minimum delivery commitments, assignment of compositions written during the term, advances, and royalty splits.

It’s the framework that turns a handshake into a real publishing deal — protecting your investment in a writer while giving them transparent, professional terms they can sign with confidence.

Comes as a fillable PDF and an editable Word file, ready to shape around your roster’s standards.
