The Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases and accepts from the Seller, the following described personal property (the "Property"): [item_description]. The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer has had a full and adequate opportunity to inspect the Property prior to the execution of this Agreement and accepts the Property in its current condition as described herein.
The total purchase price for the Property is [sale_price] (the "Purchase Price"), payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller on or before the Sale Date. The Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price represents the fair and agreed-upon value of the Property as negotiated between the Parties at arm's length. Upon receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller shall be deemed to have been fully compensated for the sale, transfer, and conveyance of the Property, and the Seller shall have no further right, title, or interest in or to the Property or the Purchase Price.
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer that: (a) the Seller is the sole and lawful owner of the Property and has full right, power, and authority to sell, transfer, and convey the Property to the Buyer; (b) the Property is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, claims, charges, and restrictions of any kind whatsoever; (c) the Seller has not previously sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered the Property or any interest therein to any other person or entity; and (d) the Seller will defend the Buyer's title to the Property against any and all claims and demands of any person or entity claiming an interest therein.
Upon execution of this Agreement and receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller hereby irrevocably transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer all of the Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims of any kind. Title to and risk of loss of the Property shall pass from the Seller to the Buyer upon the execution of this Agreement and payment of the Purchase Price. From and after the transfer of title, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for the Property, including its care, maintenance, insurance, and all risks of loss, damage, theft, or destruction. The Seller agrees to execute and deliver to the Buyer any and all additional documents, instruments, or certificates as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to evidence or effectuate the transfer of title to the Property.
5.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the transaction is consummated, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 5.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the sale and purchase of the Property. 5.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. 5.4 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both Parties. 5.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 5.6 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.
In accordance with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976, Seller hereby transfers the specified usage rights for the audio recordings described herein. Unless otherwise noted as a 'Full Buyout,' the Seller retains all underlying intellectual property rights. Any use of the recordings beyond the agreed territory, duration, or broadcast medium constitutes a breach of contract and may violate FCC regulations if used for unauthorized broadcast purposes.
All payments are subject to Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-2-103 regarding wage and compensation standards. Per the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act, any deceptive practices regarding the intended use of the Artist’s voice are strictly prohibited. Failure to remit payment within thirty (30) days of delivery shall render all granted usage licenses void until payment, including interest at the rate specified in this document, is received in full.
The Parties acknowledge that the Seller is an independent contractor and not an employee of the Buyer. Pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 62-6-111, the Seller represents that they maintain professional liability insurance if applicable to their specific licensing status, and the Buyer acknowledges that Seller is responsible for all tax withholdings and self-employment contributions.

In the Tennessee voiceover industry, oral agreements often fall short of protecting your intellectual property. Whether you are selling raw audio for a demo reel or transferring a full buyout for a commercial campaign, a formal Bill of Sale ensures you are compensated fairly and your usage rights are strictly defined. This document helps mitigate risks under the Tennessee Consumer Protection Act and clarifies ownership transfers to prevent costly legal disputes over royalties and pick-up session fees.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Voiceover Artist:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
Usage Rights Disputes
Contracts should clearly define the scope, duration, and territory of usage rights to prevent unauthorized use and ensure compliance with agreed terms.
Non-Payment
Contracts can include clear payment terms, milestones, and late fees to protect against non-payment. Including clauses for interest on late payments is also common.
Under the Copyright Act, your voice recording is considered an original work of authorship. A Bill of Sale serves as the legal instrument to transfer specific rights from the artist to the buyer. Without this written document, the artist typically retains the copyright even after payment is received.
While Tennessee law generally only requires signatures for enforceability under the Statute of Frauds (Tenn. Code Ann. § 29-2-101), notarization is highly recommended for high-value buyouts or long-term exclusivity agreements to prevent identity disputes and add a layer of authenticity.
The session fee is the payment for your time spent recording the raw audio. The Bill of Sale should clearly separate this from the 'Purchase Price,' which in the VO industry often refers to the buyout fee—the cost for the client to use that audio in specific territories or media for a set duration.
