  1. Alex Kim, 9:40 AM: Halcyon Health’s legal team sent back redlines on our MSA. They want to close before quarter end. Can you take a look? Attachment: Acme-MSA-Halcyon-redlines.docx.
  2. Fenswell, 9:40 AM, Automatic: Got it, we’re on it. You’ll hear back today by 1:00 PM.
  3. Robin · Fenswell, 11:52 AM, Approved by a lawyer: Hi Alex, Halcyon’s redlines are mostly workable. I accepted 14 of their 18 changes and pushed back on four, marked in the attached redline: Uncapped liability: they struck the cap entirely. I proposed 12 months of fees, with 2x for data breaches. Termination for convenience with a pro-rata refund: limited to the renewal date, so the first-year revenue is committed. SOC 2 Type II required at signing: you have Type I today, so I changed it to Type II within 12 months. Please confirm that timing with your security team. Most-favored-customer pricing: removed. Net-60 payment terms are a business call, not a legal one. I left them in; flag it if finance wants net-30. Want me to send this to Halcyon’s counsel directly? I can get on a call with them this week. Robin Attachment: Acme-MSA-Halcyon-Fenswell-redline.docx.
  4. Alex Kim, 12:05 PM: Yes please, intro’d you to Priya on their side. Finance is fine with net-60.
  5. Robin · Fenswell, 12:31 PM, Approved by a lawyer: Sent the redline to Priya and offered a call Thursday. I’ll keep you posted on anything that needs a business decision.
