ICC Model International Trademark Licence addresses the situation where the owner of a

wellknown trademark licences the trademark to a company which will use it with respect to

products other than those manufactured or sold by the licensor. In this case, it is assumed that

the licenced products will be designed and developed by the licensee, and that the main

preoccupation of the licensor is to ensure that the licenced products conform to the overall

image of the licensor and its trademarks.

Parties are advised to use ICC Model International Trademark Licence as a basis for negotiation

and for drawing up their own contracts, possibly with the assistance of a lawyer with

international expertise. ICC Model International Trademark Licence is another important

resource for attorneys and companies engaged in international trade. It carries the authority of

ICC, the organization that pioneered many of the basic rules and mechanisms at the heart of

international business.

contracts and provides solutions to the thorny problems they raise:

choice of the applicable lawchoice of jurisdictioninternational arbitrationthe use of more international drafting techniqueshardship, force majeure and liquidated damages

As an added feature, this volume provides insights into the basic requirements of a well-drafted

contract and analyzes in depth the negotiating process. It concludes with incisive commentary

on the model contracts developed by the International Chamber of Commerce.

About this title:

As the ICC represents all parties to international business transactions, the model turnkeyform has to be fair to all parties. It achieves this balance, amongst other ways, by making

obligations bilateral where it is sensible to do so. -- Robert Knutson- Chartered InternationalArbitrator and UK Solicitor, MPhil Construction Law, MSc Construction Law and Arbitration, LLM

International Law

The ICC Major Projects Contract is () an excellent model of a modern international turnkeycontract based on an equilibrium of the rights and obligations between the employer and

contractor, and a balanced risk allocation. -- Herfried Wss(as published in Construction LawInternational Volume 3 No. 2 June 2008.) Herfried Woess is a partner with Wss & Partners,

Mexico. As a multi-jurisdictionally trained lawyer, he is an expert in international dispute

settlement and representative of the Dipute Resolution Board Foundation of the International

Bar Association, London.

International turnkey construction projects are often complex transactions, requiring

correspondingly complex legal documentation. Moreover, many such major construction

projects are an important element in international development, and it is vital that the

arrangements put in place be durable, clear and equitable. ICC has prepared this model for

Major Projects for use in major projects in order to provide contractors and employers with a

unique, balanced platform that is fair to all parties. At the same time, the model accommodatesthe desire of all parties for price and scope certainty, the need for swift and effective dispute

resolution, and the need for complete and informed allocation of risks.

About this title:

A Certificate of Origin is a document which identifies the origin of goods being exported. It is

required by customs as one of the key bases for applying tariff rates. The issuing ofCertificates

of Origin and the associated certification of other export documents was first regularized in

1923. This came about under the provisions of the International Convention relating to the

Simplification of Customs Formalities held in Geneva.

Most chambers of commerce and some trade associations have been authorized by their

Customs agencies to certify non-preferential, and in some cases, preferential certificates of

origin. Thus, a chambers role in the issuance and attestation of Certificates of Origin is bothunique and vital in facilitating international trade. International Certificate of Origin Guidelines

is the result of 18 months work byICCs World Chambers Federation,incorporating the bestpractice from several national chamber organizations to produce the first international

procedures and guidelines manual for chambers in the issuance of non-preferential certificates

of origin.

About this title:

The paper copy of this publication contains the text of the contract on a CD-Rom.

For the marketing of products through a network of qualified retailers

Prepared by the ICC Commission on Commercial Law and Practice (CLP), this title covers agreements which

allow the exporter to better control the way his products are marketed by creating a direct link between the

exporter and the retailers who sell his products to the end consumer.

What Selective Distribution means

In some cases, the exporter may wish to establish a direct link with the retailers in order to control the way in

which his products are marketed and provide a certain level of sales service to the consumer.

The producer may wish to:

market technically sophisticated products only through retailers who can give competent technical

advice;

ensure that products with an exclusive image are sold only in shops having certain high level

characteristics (location, fittings, etc.).

The ICC Model Selective Distributorship Contract is one means of ensuring that products are marketed

through a network of qualified resellers. Of course the above can be warranted only if the products are sold

by retailers who fulfil the selection criteria. Consequently, selective distribution necessarily implies a closed

network, obtained by preventing all its members, including the producer, from selling to non-authorizedresellers. The ICC Model Selective Distributorship Contract provides a sound legal basis upon which parties

can quickly establish an even-handed agreement acceptable for both sides. It saves resources for companies

and their legal advisers.

About this title:

The paper copy of this publication contains the text of the contract on a CD-Rom.Kindly Note: the CD Rom is not included when you purchase the eBook.

Parties negotiating agency agreements abroad are faced with a major difficulty: the lack of

uniform rules. There is no internationally agreed uniform legislation for agency agreements,

and so parties have to rely on national laws. Not only do these laws differ from country to

country, but they do not take into account the international nature of the contract.

ICC provides a flexible alternative solution. Using uniform contractual rules, and not based on

any specific national law, the model incorporates prevailing practice in international trade as

well as the principles generally recognized by the domestic laws on agency.

This fully revised edition takes into account recent developments in the laws of agency,

including Internet sales. It also comprises, for the first time, a CD-ROM presenting the text of

the contract. Not only does the model offer flexible solutions to international agreements, the

CD makes it even simpler to adapt the contract for your specific case.

The detailed introduction explains the scope of the contract and its uses.

About this title:

Traders negotiating international distribution agreements find the task much easier if they use

uniform rules. To meet this need, ICC has published a revised set of its uniform contractual

rules, the ICC Model Distributorship Contract. The rules apply to agreements under which the

distributors act either as buyers and resellers or as importers who organize distribution in the

country in which they operate.

The rules included in the contract are both flexible and general. If parties have no need to draw

up a specific contract of their own, they can use the entire model, which has been drafted to

assure balance for both sides.

Concise and practical, the ICC Model Distributorship Contract is an invaluable tool for

companies engaged in international trade and their lawyers. It carries the authority of ICC, the

organization that pioneered many of the basic rules and mechanisms at the heart of

international trade.

About this title:

Force Majeure literally means greater force. Force Majeure clauses excuse a party fromliability if some unforeseen event beyond the control of that party prevents it from performing

its obligations under the contract.

A hardship clause, on the other hand, requests re-negotiation of the contract if the continued

performance of one partys contractualduties has become excessively onerous due to anunforeseen event beyond the control of that party.

Negotiating force majeure and hardship clauses means operating at the very core of the

contract. It is important that the clauses are balanced and apply equally to all parties to the

agreement. ICC has designed the ICC Force Majeure Clause 2003 and the ICC Hardship Clause

2003 to facilitate the drafting process both for companies and for their lawyers and help them

to take unforeseeable circumstances into account.

Turnkey contracts take a range of forms and at present no single model contract covers them

all. The Model Contract for the Turnkey Supply of an Industrial Plant has special characteristics:

1. The supplier's main obligation is to supply the equipment and assist the purchaserduring erection and startup.

2. The supplier performs its obligations within facilities that are under the purchasercontrol.

This ICC Model Contract takes account of all of these specifics and contains enough flexibility

for the parties to work out special situations for themselves. To leave the greatest possible

space to alternative solutions, many issues (for example, raw materials, time schedule, erection

equipment, etc.) are covered in the useful annexes.

The ICC Model International Sale Contract is a time-saving guide for traders, importers, lawyers

and all parties involved in these important international transactions. Providing clear directions

to sellers and buyers of manufactured goods, the contract is divided into two parts - Specific

Conditions and General Conditions.

The form's introduction takes the parties step-by-step through the process - from the general

characteristics of the contract through its scope of application to its termination and resolution

of disputes.

A Flexible Model

The model contract was specifically developed for sales of manufactured goods intended for

resale, where the purchaser is not a consumer and where the contract is an independent

transaction rather than part of a long-term supply arrangement. The ICC model is flexible

enough to allow users either to incorporate only the general conditions common to all

contracts or to include the specific conditions, which set out standard terms common to all

contracts incorporating the ICC General Conditions of Sale. Moreover, while the model contract

subjects the transaction to the United Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods

(CISG), it also, in certain circumstances, permits the parties to incorporate specific conditions of

national law.

Easy to Follow, Ready to Use

The ICC model contract is easy to use for first-time traders, but also provides the legal

protection demanded by experienced practitioners. Each box in the contract form is fully

explained, and, in some instances, lists of terms are defined, with the responsibilities of the

parties clearly set out. On transport documents, for example, the model lists those in common

use, such as the bill of lading, the multimodal transport document and the Air Waybill.
