Maybe a contract term specific to a particular client. Although nowadays that sort of stuff does get quoted. I had this recently The terms of the preferred vendor agreement dated 06/27/2008 (“Agreement”) apply in lieu of any terms set out in this invoice, and no such other terms that may be set out in this invoice are enforceable against Publisher; Edited March 31, 2020 by spacecadet Link to post Share on other sites

Not only great for the fees, but the fact that the original licence was only for 3 months! I don't think that I've ever had a licence for less than a year - and I haven't seen one of those in, erm , well, years! They're usually 5. 10, or even more, these days.

The original sale for $950 was from one of those emails asking if I'd be willing to give exclusivity for book cover use for 10 years and I agreed to that. However as Alamy changed the restrictions some time ago exclusivity can't be that precise so it was restricted for editorial use for 10 years. This renewal if for a further 25 years of exclusivity and I wasn't asked if I was happy with that. I doubt my particular image would ever sell many times so I'm not complaining in this instance but there is a principle at stake here I think.
