Included Assets The Assets referred to in Section 1.1(a)(ii) shall include, without limitation, the following assets, properties and rights of Seller used directly or indirectly in the conduct of, or generated by or constituting, the Business, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement:
Excluded Inventions The provisions of Section 2.1 shall not apply to Inventions which fulfill all of the following criteria:
Intellectual Property Ownership The Employee hereby assigns to the Company all rights, including, without limitation, copyrights, patents, trade secret rights, and other intellectual property rights associated with any ideas, concepts, techniques, inventions, processes, works of authorship, Confidential Information or trade secrets (i) developed or created by the Employee, solely or jointly with others, during the course of performing work for or on behalf of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, or the predecessors of any such entities, whether as an employee or independent contractor, (ii) that the Employee conceives, develops, discovers or makes in whole or in part during the Employee’s employment by the Company that relate to the business of the Company or any affiliate of the Company or the actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, (iii) that the Employee conceives, develops, discovers or makes in whole or in part during or after the Employee’s employment by the Company that are made through the use of any of the equipment, facilities, supplies, trade secrets or time of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, or that result from any work the Employee performs for the Company or any affiliate of the Company, or (iv) developed or created by the Employee, solely or jointly with others, at any time before the Employment Period, that relate to or involve the Company’s businesses (including, but not limited to, the business of the Company Group) (collectively, the “Work Product”). Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent possible, all software, compilations and other original works of authorship included in the Work Product will be considered a “work made for hire” as that term is defined in Title 17 of the United States Code. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee for any reason retains any right, title or interest in or relating to any Work Product, the Employee agrees promptly to assign, in writing and without any requirement of further consideration, all such right, title, and interest to the Company. Upon request of the Company at any time during or after the Employment Period, the Employee will take such further actions, including execution and delivery of instruments of conveyance, as may be appropriate to evidence, perfect, record or otherwise give full and proper effect to any assignments of rights under or pursuant to this Agreement. The Employee will promptly disclose to the Company any such Work Product in writing.
Company Intellectual Property The Executive agrees to promptly disclose to the Company any and all work product, inventions, artistic works, works of authorship, designs, methods, processes, technology, patterns, techniques, data, Confidential Information, patents, trade secrets, trademarks, domain names, copyrights, and the like, and all other intellectual property relating to the business of the Company and any of its affiliates which are created, authored, composed, invented, discovered, performed, perfected, or learned by the Executive (either solely or jointly with others) during the Employment Term (collectively, together with such intellectual property as may be owned or acquired by the Company, the “Company Intellectual Property”). The Company Intellectual Property shall be the sole and absolute property of the Company and its affiliates. All work performed by the Executive in authoring, composing, inventing, creating, developing or modifying Company Intellectual Property and/or other work product to which copyright protection may attach during the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company shall be considered “works made for hire” to the extent permitted under applicable copyright law and will be considered the sole property of the Company. To the extent such works, work product or Company Intellectual Property are not considered “works made for hire,” all right, title, and interest to such works, work product and Company Intellectual Property, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents, trademarks, rights of publicity, and trade secrets, is hereby assigned to the Company and the Executive agrees, at the Company’s expense, to execute any documents requested by the Company or any of its affiliates at any time in relation to such assignment. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company is and will be the sole and absolute owner of all trademarks, service marks, domain names, patents, copyrights, trade dress, trade secrets, business names, rights of publicity, inventions, proprietary know-how and information of any type, whether or not in writing, and all other intellectual property used by the Company or held for use in the business of the Company, including all Company Intellectual Property. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that any and all derivative works, developments, or improvements based on intellectual property, materials and assets subject to this Section 6 created during the Employment Term (including, without limitation, Company Intellectual Property) shall be exclusively owned by the Company. The Executive will cooperate with the Company and any of its affiliates, at no additional cost to such parties (whether during or after the Employment Term), in the confirmation, registration, protection and enforcement of the rights and property of the Company and its affiliates in such intellectual property, materials and assets, including, without limitation, the Company Intellectual Property.
Existing Intellectual Property Other than as expressly provided in this AGREEMENT, neither PARTY grants nor shall be deemed to grant any right, title or interest to the other PARTY in any PATENT, PATENT APPLICATION, KNOW-HOW or other intellectual property right CONTROLLED by such PARTY as of the EFFECTIVE DATE.
Excluded Assets Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchased Assets shall not include the following assets (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”):
Assumed and Excluded Liabilities (a) The applicable Transferred Company shall assume and be responsible, from and after the Closing, for (i) all of the Liabilities of Seller and its Subsidiaries to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from the Transferred Companies or the ownership or operation of the Transferred Assets, whether incurred before, on or after the Closing, other than the Excluded Liabilities and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (ii) all Liabilities in respect of the Assigned Contracts and (iii) all Liabilities set forth on Annex 2.3(a) ((i), (ii) and (iii) collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”) and (b) one or more members of Seller Group, as applicable, shall assume and be responsible for (i) all of the Liabilities of the Transferred Companies to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from an Excluded Asset, whether incurred before, on or after the Closing, (ii) any Liability of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to their employees in their capacity as employers under any employee benefits or similar plans, except to the extent expressly assumed by Buyer under Section 6.6, (iii) all Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.5(a), (iv) except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, any liability for any fees or expenses incurred by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including the fees and expenses of legal counsel, any accountant, auditor, broker, financial advisor or consultant retained by Seller or its Subsidiaries or on their behalf) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (v) any Liabilities of the Transferred Companies relating to, arising out of or resulting from any business currently or formerly conducted by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from (x) the provision of ILEC Services as conducted on the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing, (y) any similar business conducted by the Transferred Companies prior to the date of this Agreement that would constitute an ILEC Service but for the date restrictions contained in the definition thereof or (z) the Transferred Companies’ historic wireline business conducted within the Territory), and (vi) all Liabilities set forth on Annex 2.3(b), whether incurred before, on or after the Closing, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement (collectively, the “Excluded Liabilities”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Liabilities (other than clause (v) of the definition thereof) are not intended to create and expressly exclude any obligation of any member of the Seller Group to assume or be responsible for any Liability related to the infringement, misappropriation or other violation of any Intellectual Property rights.
Third Party Intellectual Property The Manager shall assist and fully cooperate with the Successor Manager or its designated alternate service provider in obtaining any necessary licenses or consents to use any third party Intellectual Property then being used by the Manager or any Sub-manager. The Manager shall assign, and shall cause each Sub-manager to assign, any such license or sublicense directly to the Successor Manager or its designated alternate service provider to the extent the Manager, or each Sub-manager as applicable, has the rights to assign such agreements to the Successor Manager without incurring any additional cost.
