Document background
An Exclusive Publishing Agreement is essential when establishing a formal publishing relationship where the publisher obtains sole rights to publish and distribute an author's work. Under Singapore law, this document incorporates key provisions from the Copyright Act 2021 and Contracts Act 1872, ensuring comprehensive protection for all parties. The agreement typically covers publication rights, royalty structures, delivery schedules, and quality standards, while addressing both traditional and digital publishing requirements. It's particularly relevant for situations requiring exclusive publishing arrangements, whether for single works or ongoing series.
