Executive shall disclose any Developments to Nucor’s management within 30 days following Executive’s development, making or conception thereof.

Intellectual Property Filings Such patent, trademark and copyright notices, filings and recordations necessary or appropriate to perfect the security interests in intellectual property and intellectual property rights, as determined by the Collateral Agent.
Intellectual Property Licenses Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the TSA, and except as otherwise provided in Section 5.13 of the SPA, it shall be the responsibility of the Receiving Party (at the Receiving Party’s sole cost and expense) to obtain all licenses associated with the use of third party intellectual property, including but not limited to copyrights (e.g., software), trademarks and patents (and/or consents and extensions relating to such licenses), if any, necessary for the provision of Services to the Receiving Party during the Term. The Service Provider agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Receiving Party in its negotiations with any licensors from whom the Receiving Party may require such a license (or consent or extension) during the Term. In the event the Receiving Party is unable to obtain a necessary license, consent or extension, the Services related to such license shall be removed from the scope of the TSA, without a reduction in fees or payments owed by the Receiving Party under the TSA. In all events, and in addition to (and not in limitation of) any similar rights that the Service Provider may have under the TSA, the Receiving Party shall indemnify, defend and hold the Service Provider harmless from and against any actions, liabilities and/or claims relating to the licenses and the license matters discussed in this provision. The Receiving Party’s obligation to pay any fees under this Section 1.5 shall apply whether or not such claims for fees arise from the Receiving Party’s continued or past access to or benefit from third party intellectual property. The Receiving Party also acknowledges the Service Provider’s right to initiate discussion with third party licensors that may involve the Receiving Party’s use of intellectual property. All negotiated agreements with third party licensors for the future use of or rights to intellectual property and associated services shall be at the cost of the Service Provider, provided that the Receiving Party shall bear the cost of incremental third party use fees which are specifically identified in the agreements with the third party licensors and which relate solely to the Receiving Party’s use (“Incremental License Fees”). Such Incremental License Fees shall be approved in advance in writing by the Receiving Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Assignment of Intellectual Property The Executive hereby assigns to the Company or its designees, without further consideration and free and clear of any lien or encumbrance, the Executive’s entire right, title and interest (within the United States and all foreign jurisdictions) to any and all inventions, discoveries, improvements, developments, works of authorship, concepts, ideas, plans, specifications, software, formulas, databases, designees, processes and contributions to Confidential Information created, conceived, developed or reduced to practice by the Executive (alone or with others) during the Term which (i) are related to the Company’s current or anticipated business, activities, products, or services, (ii) result from any work performed by Executive for the Company, or (iii) are created, conceived, developed or reduced to practice with the use of Company property, including any and all Intellectual Property Rights (as defined below) therein (“Work Product”). Any Work Product which falls within the definition of “work made for hire”, as such term is defined in the U.S. Copyright Act, shall be considered a “work made for hire”, the copyright in which vests initially and exclusively in the Company. The Executive waives any rights to be attributed as the author of any Work Product and any “droit morale” (moral rights) in Work Product. The Executive agrees to immediately disclose to the Company all Work Product. For purposes of this Agreement, “Intellectual Property” shall mean any patent, copyright, trademark or service xxxx, trade secret, or any other proprietary rights protection legally available.

Intellectual Property Agreements Borrower shall not permit the inclusion in any material contract to which it becomes a party of any provisions that could or might in any way prevent the creation of a security interest in Borrower's rights and interests in any property included within the definition of the Intellectual Property Collateral acquired under such contracts.
