‘I am signing a distributor agreement and where I would sign it has:
Distributor:
Acme
By:______________________
Its:______________________
What goes on these 2 lines and what does Its mean??’
Question: The blank next to “By” is for the name of whomever is signing on behalf of Acme (we have changed the actual name of the distributor). And while we have never seen it referred to this way before, “Its” most likely refers to “Title”, meaning, what is the title of whomever signed it, such as “CEO” or “President”.
