[Hidden-tech] Recommendation needed for contract review

[Videatives]

Dear HT'ers,

Videatives, Inc, a start-up company, might partner with a large video  
streaming company, Kanopy Streaming, with a home base in Perth,  
Australia.  They would like to put about 100 of our high resolution  
video files on their server as part of their 2,000 + video library.   
The would pay us a 55% royalty for any customer who paid an annual  
subscription to view our clips from the Kanopy Streaming service, not  
from the Videatives Streaming Service.  This is a non-exclusive  
license.  They have sent us a 12 page (pdf file) contract.  I  
understand most of it, but I am not confident that I can predict  
unintended consequences.  Can someone recommend an attorney who can be  
gentle on fees, yet knows how to look for weaknesses in such contracts  
regarding such matters as two way indemnification, performance clause,  
net sales figures, escape clause, etc.  It could be that this contract  
is boiler plate.  It reads quite similar to one an author signs with a  
publisher, but in this case, the content is not owned by the  
"publisher"  Kanopy Streaming.  Videatives still owns the files and  
will continue to sell them directly to customers and to other  
distributors.   Thanks,

George Forman, President
