Exhaustion Sample Clauses
The Exhaustion clause establishes that once a product protected by intellectual property rights, such as a patent or copyright, is lawfully sold, the rights holder's control over further distribution or resale of that specific item is exhausted. In practice, this means that after the initial authorized sale, the buyer or subsequent owners can use, resell, or otherwise dispose of the product without needing further permission from the rights holder. This clause is essential for promoting the free movement of goods in commerce and prevents rights holders from imposing post-sale restrictions, thereby ensuring clarity and certainty in the marketplace.
