Declaration of pre Clause Samples

Declaration of pre existing IPR (background): The ownership of pre-existing rights remains unchanged by the PCP. In order to be able to distinguish clearly between results and pre-existing rights (and to establish which pre-existing rights are held by whom): 1. On the submission of each phase of the procedure, and in any event as soon as practicable when there is a variation with respect to the notification which shall be done by the Contractors at the beginning of each phase, the Contractor shall notify in writing with full and complete information of any self or third party owned pre-existing or Background IPRs that may in any way affect any use rights corresponding to the Buyers Group. These notifications will be provided by the Contractors with the necessary authorizations at no cost for the Buyers Group. If necessary, will be reinstated as legitimate users according to the terms below, including as the case may be, the substitution of equivalent solutions or products that do not infringe third party IPRs. 2. The Contractors shall confirm that they have procured from the owner of any Background IPR owned by a third party the necessary license or the necessary variation to any pre-existing license required to allow the Buyers Group to use that Background IPR to the extent that it is supplied with or forms part of the Project and will be used by the Buyers Group according to the internal purpose referred to in the previous paragraph. The Contractors shall indemnify and hold the Buyers Group harmless from any claim exercised by any third party regarding an infringement due to their use of the Background IPRs. 3. Contractors will establish a list of respective pre-existing rights to be used — before the start of the contract.
