Royalty audit response template (PDF)
A PDF template pack for managing a licensor audit end-to-end from the licensee side — acknowledging the notice, confirming scope and period, tracking document production, responding to preliminary findings with a structured defend / concede / negotiate framework, and positioning settlement.
Free for brand, retailer, wholesaler and manufacturer teams. We email the link to your work address; requests from companies we can’t verify are reviewed first.
To check a request we may look at your company’s public website, sometimes with the help of an AI research assistant. Only your company name and web domain are used for that, never your name or email.
Inside the template
Audit notice acknowledgment letter structure
Scope and period confirmation checklist (NDA, audit-firm credentials, timeline)
Document production tracker (requested / produced / outstanding)
Preliminary-finding response framework (defend / concede / negotiate per finding)
Interest and audit-fee threshold reference per common contract terms
Single point-of-contact protocol and internal communication guidance
