• Establishes eligibility requirements for entering into surrogacy agreements (agreements) and required elements of the agreements;
• Contains provisions governing the termination of agreements and the effect of a death or a change in marital status of any of the parties to such agreements;
• Authorizes court orders recognizing and enforcing agreements; and
• Specifies the duties of persons under the agreements.
