A reseller or distributor normally buys goods in their own name and resells them at their own risk, whereas a commercial agent acts on behalf of the principal and normally receives commission.

Under certain conditions, the agent may be entitled to commission even on agreements concluded after the assignment has ended, for example when the business was primarily brought about by the agent's efforts during the assignment period and is concluded within a reasonable time thereafter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template therefore has a separate provision on \u003cstrong\u003epost-termination commission\u003c\/strong\u003e and instructs the parties to continue the final settlement even after the end of the contract when the law's rules are applicable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAuthority matrix – who may bind the principal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe agent may not automatically enter into agreements in the principal's name.

The parties cannot freely enter a shorter notice period to the agent's disadvantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template therefore does not contain incorrect standard rules such as \"30 days' notice\" regardless of how long the agency has lasted. Appendix 7 helps the parties choose a contract term and notice period with consideration for the specific relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGoodwill indemnity – especially important in commercial agency\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen an agency agreement ends, the agent may under certain conditions be entitled to \u003cstrong\u003egoodwill indemnity\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Instead, the template contains a clear clause that the agent's mandatory rights must be respected and that any entitlement is assessed according to applicable law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNon-compete clause after the agency ends\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 8 contains an \u003cstrong\u003eoptional\u003c\/strong\u003e non-compete clause. It is not automatically activated. If the parties wish to use such a clause, it must be adapted to the requirements of the law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA subsequent non-compete clause must, among other things, be in writing, relate to the area or customer base assigned to the agent, and be limited to the types of goods covered by the agency. According to the law, it cannot bind the agent for longer than two years after the agency agreement has ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGDPR, CRM, and customer registers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgency agreements often involve the processing of contact persons, customer registers, CRM data, lead lists, and sales history. Appendix 12 helps the parties document which systems and personal data are used, what role each party has, the purpose of the processing, and what measures are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the agent processes personal data solely on behalf of the principal, a separate data processor agreement may be needed.

The Swedish Competition Authority states that a supplier and a reseller may not agree on fixed or minimum prices that the reseller charges their customers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template therefore includes a specific pricing clause where the reseller independently determines the sales price, discounts, and terms towards their customers. The supplier may use a \u003cstrong\u003erecommended price or maximum price\u003c\/strong\u003e only provided that it truly remains non-binding and is not in practice converted into a fixed or minimum price through pressure, sanctions, bonuses, or other incentives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eExclusivity, territory, and customer groups\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 2 makes it possible to choose between non-exclusive and exclusive distribution and to describe a territory or specific customer groups. However, such clauses must not be used mechanically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EU Vertical Block Exemption Regulation, Commission Regulation (EU) 2022\/720, contains detailed rules on which restrictions of active and passive sales may be permitted in exclusive and selective distribution systems. The template therefore contains no general wording stating that the reseller “may not sell outside their territory.” Instead, any restrictions are documented separately and should be used only to the extent permitted by competition law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eActive and passive sales\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe distinction between active and passive sales is important in territorial distribution. Active sales can, for example, consist of direct marketing targeted at a specific customer group or area. Passive sales are typically sales occurring after a spontaneous, unsolicited request from the customer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder certain conditions, active sales into an exclusive territory can be restricted. A general ban on passive sales, however, is normally a serious competition law restriction. This is reflected directly in Appendix 2 and the agreement's savings clause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eE-commerce and effective use of the internet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template is specifically adapted for modern e-commerce. The reseller is allowed to use the internet effectively to sell the Products. The supplier can set objective and proportionate quality requirements for, for example, the website, brand presentation, customer service, product information, and security.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConversely, the agreement must not be structured in a way that prevents the reseller from using the internet effectively in practice. Appendix 6 therefore contains separate fields for website requirements, online marketplaces, search advertising, price comparison services, and digital customer service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e30% market share and VBER\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEU Regulation 2022\/720 contains a block exemption – a so-called \"safe harbour\" – for many vertical agreements when, among other things, the supplier's market share in its relevant sales market and the buyer's market share in its relevant purchase market do not exceed \u003cstrong\u003e30 percent\u003c\/strong\u003e and the agreement does not contain particularly serious competition restrictions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn agreement exceeding the 30-percent threshold is not automatically prohibited. However, it cannot rely on the same automatic block exemption and therefore requires a more individual competition law assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNon-compete clause – not an unlimited standard clause\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 11 contains an optional non-compete clause. It is not automatically activated. EU vertical rules imply, among other things, that a direct or indirect non-compete clause that is unlimited or exceeds five years normally falls outside the block exemption, with specific exceptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the termination of the agreement, the possibility of using a non-compete clause is even more limited. Therefore, the agreement instead contains a flexible structure where the clause must be chosen and checked based on the actual distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrders, delivery, and the Sale of Goods Act\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 4 allows for specifying when an order becomes binding, delivery location, Incoterms, transport liability, lead time, freight, passing of risk, and any retention of title.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the sale of personal property between businesses, the \u003cstrong\u003eSale of Goods Act (1990:931)\u003c\/strong\u003e may become applicable to the extent the parties have not agreed otherwise. The Sale of Goods Act is to a large extent dispositive, and the template is therefore used to create clearer commercial terms than what would otherwise follow from the law's standard rules alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty, claims, and product recall\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 8 is used to regulate the warranty period, RMA process, B2B returns, customer support, spare parts, and liability in case of product recall.

Appendix 5 allows for documenting the graphic manual, prior approval, local campaigns, as well as rules for domain names and social media.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe template simultaneously prevents the reseller from registering confusingly similar marks or domains without express approval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGDPR, CRM, and customer data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppendix 9 is used to document whether the supplier and reseller are independent data controllers or if one party processes personal data on behalf of the other.
