Intellectual Property Matters A. Definitions
Intellectual Property Rights and Ownership 5.1. You acknowledge that all Intellectual Property Rights (including any new Intellectual Property Rights) arising out of or in connection with the Access Products and associated Documentation, belong at all times to Us or Our licensors.
5.2. Nothing in this Agreement shall transfer any Intellectual Property Rights in or arising from Access Products or Documentation to You but that these shall remain vested in Us or Our licensors. No rights to use any such Intellectual Property are granted, except as expressly stated in these Terms and Conditions or the relevant Statement of Work. If, notwithstanding this, any Intellectual Property Rights in or arising from the Access Product and/or Documentation are acquired by You (including any new Intellectual Property Rights), You hereby assign (and to the extent that any such Intellectual Property Rights are not capable of such assignment, agree to hold on trust) and agree to do all such things and sign all such documents as We may reasonably require in respect of the assignment of all such Intellectual Property Rights to Us or Our licensors as may be appropriate.
5.3. Subject to clauses 5.6 and 5.7, We will indemnify You against all direct costs, claims, demands, expenses (including reasonable legal costs) and liabilities of whatever nature incurred by or awarded against You arising out of or in connection with any claim that Your use of the Access Product(s) any Documentation, information, data, computer facilities or material that We supply, infringes a third party’s Intellectual Property (Infringement Claim).
5.4. We warrant that We are not aware that the Access Product(s) any Documentation, information, data, computer facilities or material that We supply, or Your use of the same in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will infringe any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights but We have not carried out any investigation into the same. We shall indemnify You against all direct costs, claims, demands, expenses (including reasonable legal costs) and liabilities of whatever nature incurred by or awarded against You arising out of or in connection with any breach of the warranty contained in this clause.
5.5. If an Infringement Claim is alleged or threatened against either You or Us, or if We believe that the Access Product or the Documentation or any part thereof may infringe any third party’s copyright or registered patent (effective at the date of this Agreement), We may, at Our sole option, (i) procure such licence, authorisation or consent as is necessary to enable Your continued use of the Access Product and/or the Documentation; (ii) modify or replace the same as necessary to avoid infringement without any material adverse effect to the functionality of the Access Product; or (iii) terminate this Agreement and/or the affected Statement of Work and refund an amount equal to the unused portion of any Annual Licence Fees pre-paid in respect of such Software (as the case may be) to You.
5.6. You shall permit Us to have access upon reasonable Notice during the Licence Term to inspect during Business Hours the premises and the Customer System at or on which the Software is being kept or used, and any records kept pursuant to the Licence, for the purposes of ensuring that You are complying with the terms of this Agreement. In carrying out such an inspection We will comply with any reasonable restrictions You require, and We will only request such an inspection where We believe We have reasonable cause to do so. In the event that You have unauthorised copies of the Software, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that We may have, You shall pay an additional fee to Us in respect of any such unauthorised copies calculated by reference to the standard list price prevailing at the date of invoice in respect of such Software.
5.7. Without prejudice to clause 5.8, We shall only be liable under the terms of this Agreement for an Infringement Claim or alleged Infringement Claim if (i) You promptly notify Us of any infringement or alleged infringement of which You are aware, or ought reasonably to have been made aware of; (ii) You make no admission as to liability or agree any settlement of such claim without Our prior written consent; (iii) You allow Us (or a relevant third party supplier), at Our expense, to conduct and/or settle all negotiations and litigation arising from any claim or action relating to the alleged infringement; and (iv) You, at Our expense, give Us (or a relevant third party supplier) such reasonable assistance as may berequested in such settlement or negotiation.
5.8. We shall have no liability for any Infringement Claim or alleged Infringement Claim to the extent such claim arises from (i) possession, use, development, modification, or operation of the Access Product or part thereof by You other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the relevant Statement of Work or the Documentation; (ii) failure by You to take any reasonable corrective action directed by Us (including using an alternative, non-infringing version of the Access Products); or (iii) is based upon any item provided by You and incorporated into the Access Product(s) or used in combination with the Access Product(s) at Your request.
COPYRIGHT, PATENTS AND OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS 16.1 Except as is otherwise expressly provided in writing in the Contract, UNDP shall be entitled to all intellectual property and other proprietary rights including, but not limited to, patents, copyrights, and trademarks, with regard to products, processes, inventions, ideas, know-how, or documents and other materials which the Contractor has developed for UNDP under the Contract and which bear a direct relation to or are produced or prepared or collected in consequence of, or during the course of, the performance of the Contract. The Contractor acknowledges and agrees that such products, documents and other materials constitute works made for hire for UNDP.

Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights I will cooperate fully with the Company, both during and after my employment with the Company, with respect to the procurement, maintenance and enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights in Company-Related Developments. I will sign, both during and after the term of this Agreement, all papers, including without limitation copyright applications, patent applications, declarations, oaths, assignments of priority rights, and powers of attorney, which the Company may deem necessary or desirable in order to protect its rights and interests in any Company-Related Development. If the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature on any such papers, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint each officer of the Company as my agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any such papers on my behalf, and to take any and all actions as the Company may deem necessary or desirable in order to protect its rights and interests in any Company-Related Development.
Infringement of Intellectual Property Rights Seller (or its supplier) shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless against an award of damages and costs against Purchaser by a final judgment of a court of last resort in the country in which the Equipment is originally installed by Seller resulting from actual or alleged patent infringement relating in any way to use or sale of the Equipment, or any component thereof furnished hereunder, provided that Purchaser (i) gives Seller immediate notice in writing of any suit or claim for infringement against Purchaser, (ii) permits Seller (or its supplier) to control the defense of any suit or claim, and (iii) gives Seller (or its supplier) all available information, assistance, and authority to enable Seller (or its supplier) to assume such defense. Seller (or its supplier) shall diligently defend and prosecute all such patent infringement litigation and shall keep Purchaser fully informed of all developments in the defense or adjustments of any such claim or action. If a final injunction or judgment in any patent infringement action is rendered restraining Purchaser’s use of the Equipment, or of any component thereof, Seller shall, at its option and expense, either (i) procure for Purchaser the right to use the Equipment, or (ii) replace or modify the infringing component so that it no longer infringes, or (iii) repurchase the Equipment upon its return to Seller, less reasonable depreciation of 2% per month from date of installation, for use, damage, or obsolescence. Seller shall have no liability whatsoever to Purchaser if any such patent infringement or claim thereof is based upon or arises from (i) the use of any Equipment in combination with an apparatus or device not manufactured or supplied by Seller and such combination cause the infringement, (ii) the use of any Equipment in a manner for which it was neither designed nor contemplated, or (iii) any modification of any Equipment by Purchaser, or by Seller at Purchaser’s request, or by any third party, which causes the Equipment to become infringing.
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.
Intellectual Property The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). None of, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, the Intellectual Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2) years from the date of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
