Ex Form
Use a Ex Form 2019 template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What Ex Form is and how it works
Ex Form is a document that can be prepared, routed, signed, and retained electronically when its transaction permits eSignatures. With signNow, a sender uploads the Ex Form, reviews automatically detected fillable fields, adds or confirms signature and date fields, assigns recipients, and sends the document for completion. Each signer reviews the record and signs through the designated workflow. signNow then preserves the completed Ex Form with an audit trail. Legal effect depends on intent, consent, attribution, record access, and applicable U.S. law, including ESIGN and UETA.
Who uses Ex Form workflows
Business teams
Businesses can adapt Ex Form workflows for agreements, internal approvals, and records requiring a completed signature. Use role-based access, signer routing, and audit-trail retention to keep each version connected to the responsible people.
Regulated departments
Legal, finance, healthcare, and operations groups can complete Ex Form online when their underlying transaction permits electronic signatures. Consumer-facing workflows may also require ESIGN consent disclosures and accessible electronic records.

Legal standing of Ex Form
For a U.S. business transaction, an Ex Form signature can carry legal effect when the signer intends to sign, consents to electronic records, can be identified, and the record remains reproducible. ESIGN and applicable state law support this framework, while wills, codicils, testamentary trusts, and court orders remain excluded.

Privacy pitfalls when using Ex Form
Ex Form may expose names, addresses, account details, or other personal information when recipients receive or download the signed document. A consumer signer may not receive the required ESIGN paper-record disclosure or a clear explanation of electronic consent withdrawal. Broad workspace permissions can let an unintended user edit an Ex Form template or access completed records. Sending an outdated Ex Form version can separate the signer’s record from the business process it was intended to document.
Ex Form troubleshooting questions
Resolve Ex Form preparation, signing, compliance, plan, and retention questions before distributing the completed record.
Upload the original Ex Form file again and confirm that it opens without password protection. signNow can then detect fillable areas or let you place fields manually. If the document remains unreadable, convert it to a supported PDF before preparing the signature request.
The Business plan includes templates, audit trails, and mobile apps at $8/user/month when billed annually. If your workflow requires bulk sending, Business Premium adds that capability at $15/user/month annually. Verify the active plan before assigning a bulk Ex Form campaign.
For a consumer-facing Ex Form transaction, provide the ESIGN disclosure, explain the right to receive paper records, confirm electronic access, and explain consent withdrawal procedures. These requirements come from 15 U.S.C. §7001(c), not from signNow.
Use signNow signer authentication options such as email delivery or SMS verification when attribution needs additional evidence. The audit trail records signing actions, timestamps, and IP information, but the transaction must still show intent and consent under ESIGN or applicable state law.
A signed Ex Form is not automatically suitable for every transaction. Wills, codicils, testamentary trusts, court orders, and official court filings fall outside ESIGN’s ordinary electronic-record framework. Check the governing state law or filing authority before sending an electronic signature request.
Export the completed Ex Form together with its certificate of completion and audit trail. Store both records under the applicable business policy. If the form contains protected health information, HIPAA requires six-year retention from creation or the last effective date under 45 CFR §164.530(j).
