Software source code escrow agreement is a relatively new occurrence, emerged together with the rise of software industry in 1970’s in the U.S. Taking into account the fact that business relationships between the software licensor and the licensee are mostly permanent, i.e. significant part is not only the license agreement, but also maintenance and support service duties assumed by the licensor, it is important that business continuity of the licensee is ensured. Software source code escrow agreement aims to provide this assurance by promise, that if the licensor ceases to exist (becomes insolvent), then the source code – building instruction of the software, will be turned over to the licensee and provide licensee with the option to maintain the software himself.

You pay someone to develop a software program for you (could even be a website, could even be something else), but they keep the source code (they often want to until the final payment clears their bank) – the part of the program that generates the application program that you actually use. What if something happens to the programmer(s)? They die (I know two who did!), go to Afghanistan (none have done that so far), disappear (does Mexico count?)… and now you can’t get any modifications or bug fixes to the software you’ve invested a lot of money in.
