C106™–2007 Digital Data Licensing Agreement
C106–2007 serves as a licensing agreement between two parties who otherwise have no existing licensing agreement for the use and transmission of digital data, including instruments of service. C106–2007 defines digital data as information, communications, drawings, or designs created or stored for a specific project in digital form. C106–2007 allows one party to (1) grant another party a limited non-exclusive license to use digital data on a specific project, (2) set forth procedures for transmitting the digital data, and (3) place restrictions on the license granted. In addition, C106–2007 allows the party transmitting digital data to collect a licensing fee for the recipient’s use of the digital data.

E201™–2007 Digital Data Protocol Exhibit
E201–2007 is not a stand-alone document, but must be attached as an exhibit to an existing agreement, such as the B101™–2007, Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect, or A101™–2007, Agreement Between Owner and Contractor. Its purpose is to establish the procedures the parties agree to follow with respect to the transmission or exchange of digital data, including instruments of service. E201–2007 defines digital data as information, communications, drawings, or designs created or stored for a specific project in digital form. E201 does not create a separate license to use digital data, because AIA documents for design or construction, to which E201–2007 would be attached, already include those provisions. Parties not covered under such agreements should consider executing AIA Document C106™–2007, Digital Data Licensing Agreement.
