Background Intellectual Property It is possible that one or both Parties may possess rights in background intellectual property, that is, intellectual property not otherwise subject to this Agreement, which would be useful or essential to the practice or commercialization of the results of this Agreement. For example, the RI might own a patent which would be infringed by the SBC when it attempted to commercialize the results of this Agreement unless a license was obtained from the RI. Where the Parties determine that background technology may exist, consideration should be given to negotiating license rights which will allow the practice and commercialization of the results of this Agreement.
