I would recommend avoiding signing or agreeing to anything there and then, take any documentation home and think it over for a good long while before signing. If possible, have your own legal representation go over it from your side. Their lawyer is working for the companies interests, not yours. Good luck!

Thanks for the recommendation! I definitely wasn't thinking of agreeing to any terms on the spot. Do you have any idea the type of legal documents that should or will be involved in the process?
I don't really have any experience with the specifics of the deal you're trying to arrange so id only be guessing, but its essentially a licensing agreement? you're licensing the company to use your software under particular terms, so perhaps research into that a little. Hope that helps.
I think that is in the right direction. Thanks!
