Critical — do not sign

Personal guarantee or liquidated damages

Wat dës Klausel mécht

You are personally on the hook for money beyond the business.

Firwat et Iech schued

This reaches past the business into your personal assets. A liquidated-damages figure can exceed anything you ever earned through the agency, turning a bad contract into a life-altering debt.

Wéi eng fair Versioun ausgesäit

No personal guarantee. Liability capped at fees paid over the prior 12 months.

Text, deen Dir zréckschicke kënnt

Neither party shall be personally liable beyond the scope of this Agreement. Each party's aggregate liability is limited to the total fees paid in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

Paste this into your reply. Asking for a specific change is far more effective than asking them to "soften" a clause.
