{"component": "clause", "props": {"groups": [{"snippet": "3.1 The Partner shall propose technical changes to Daimler as soon as the Partner becomes aware that technical changes are necessary or conducive to the intended development result.\n3.2 Daimler may request technical changes of the Contractual System at any time. The Partner is obliged to implement such changes without undue delay. The Partner may object to the change request where implementation of the change would be unreasonable.\n3.3 If a change or adjustment of the Development Contract becomes necessary due to a technical change, in particular - but not limited to \u2013 with regard to an increase or a reduction in costs, the Contractual Partners will seek an appropriate and mutually acceptable solution. As far as such changes result in an increase or a reduction in costs, an assignment by Daimler, if any, must be made compulsively by Daimlers\u2019 purchase department.\n3.4 The Partner shall document all changes in a parts log.\n4.1 The Partner shall transfer to Daimler all of the results (inter alia know- how, experimental and development reports, suggestions, ideas, drafts, designs, drawings, proposals, patterns, models, software including source code, data sets, CAD including history etc.), hereafter referred to as the \u201cWork Results\u201d, achieved or used by it within the scope of the Development Contract, with a right to the joint unrestricted use which shall be settled by the agreed remuneration. All the Work Results shall be provided without the Partner\u2019s copyright or other mark. Insofar as these results are protected by the Partner\u2019s copyright, the Partner hereby grants Daimler the non-exclusive, irrevocable and assignable right which is settled by the agreed remuneration, without restriction as to time, location or content, to use, modify or process any of these results for the purpose of any type of use. With regard to the drawings transferred by the Partner to Daimler within the framework of this collaboration, the Partner also irrevocably declares its consent to the disclosure by Daimler of these drawings to third parties in paper format or as electronic data, e.g. within the framework of a call for tenders.\n4.2 The Partner shall provide information on its existing intellectual property rights and on any rights capable of protection at the time of the conclusion of the Development Contract (hereinafter referred to as \u201cOld Intellectual Property Rights\u201d) where such rights are capable of use with regard to the Contractual System. Should the use of Old Intellectual Property Rights be required within the context of the exploitation of the Contractual System, including the manufacture of replacement parts, Daimler is hereby granted a non-exclusive, sub-licensable right of use which is settled by the agreed remuneration, without restriction as to time and location, for any kind of usage for any products, processes or services of Daimler which shall encompass the use of such rights for the purpose of production and further development by Daimler or by third parties on behalf of Daimler.\n4.3 Should work results capable of protection be achieved during the work performed within the scope of the respective Development Contract (hereinafter referred to as \u201cNew Intellectual Property Rights\u201d) they shall be credited to the Contractual Partner whose employees achieved these work results. The Contractual Partners shall each be responsible for rewarding the inventiveness of their own employees.\n4.4 The Partner shall examine whether its work results are capable of protection and shall inform Daimler of its conclusion in writing. Concerning the Partner\u2019s New Intellectual Property Rights, Daimler shall be granted a non-exclusive, sub-licensable right of use for any kind of usage for any products, processes or services of Daimler which is settled by the agreed remuneration without restriction as to time and location and which shall encompass the use of such rights for the purpose of production and further development by Daimler or by third parties on behalf of Daimler. This rule shall also apply to the intellectual property rights of such third parties that are used as subcontractors by the Partner within the framework of the work performed by it under the respective Development Contract. In such cases the Partner shall procure to Daimler a corresponding right of use of these intellectual property rights which is settled by the agreed remuneration.\n4.5 Should work results, be achieved based on both Partner\u2019s and Daimler\u2019s contribution in the course of the services to be rendered under the respective Development Contract, the work results shall belong to both Contractual Partners (hereinafter \u201cJoint Work Results\u201d). Should the Joint Work Results be capable of protection, the resulting rights shall be jointly registered (hereinafter \u201cJoint Intellectual Property Rights\u201d). Should one the part of Daimler an affiliated company (\u00a715 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG)) be Contractual Partner, the intellectual property right may be jointly registered by Daimler AG and the Partner. The resulting costs shall be shared by the Contractual Partners in proportion to their respective shares in the Joint Intellectual Property Rights; in cases of doubt each Contractual Partner shall bear half the costs.\n4.6 The Contractual Partners shall mutually grant each other a non- exclusive, sub-licensable right of use of the Joint Work Results which is settled with the agreed remuneration without restriction as to time and location which shall encompass the use of such rights for the purpose of production and further development by the Contractual Partners or by third parties on behalf of the Contractual Partners.\n4.7 The grant of a license for Joint Intellectual Property Rights to a third party, if any, shall \u2013 in the absence of a contrary agreement \u2013 be made jointly or with the consent of the other Contractual Partner.\n4.8 If one Contractual Partner is not interested in registering a Joint Intellectual Property Right or does not wish to pursue the registration of a Joint Intellectual Property Right or wishes to surrender a Joint Intellectual Property Right it shall facilitate the registration, or the continuation of a registration or an intellectual property right, by the other Contractual Partner in the other Contractual Partner\u2019s own name and at the other Contractual Partner\u2019s own expense. The surrendering Contractual Partner shall retain a simple right of use which is settled by the agreed remuneration.\n4.9 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.4 the Partner shall produce through its development work a Contractual System free of third party rights (including, inter alia, patent rights, utility patent rights, copyrights, design rights, trademark rights or any other rights with regard to intellectual property). If the Partner does not succeed in doing so, it shall endeavor to ensure that the development results can be used by Daimler in the same way as would have been possible if they had been free of third party rights, i.e. in cases where there are third party rights, the Partner shall pay the corresponding royalties to third parties. If Daimler suffers a loss as a consequence of the existence of third party rights, the Partner shall pay compensation in respect of same \u2013 including reasonable legal fees and expenses. Sentences 2 and 3 of this Section 4.9 shall not apply if the Partner is not responsible for the violation of the obligation to achieve a Contractual System free of third party rights. If the Partner knows or becomes aware of third party rights in opposition to the Contractual System it shall in any case notify Daimler without delay.\n4.10 All rights of use granted to Daimler under Section 4 shall also encompass a corresponding usage by affiliated companies (\u00a715 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG)) of Daimler AG as well as by companies in which Daimler AG directly or indirectly holds at least 50 % of the shares, furthermore by the following minority participation of Daimler AG: Beijing Benz Automotive Co., Ltd., \u2587\u2587. \u2587 \u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587 \u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587, \u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587 \u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587 \u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587\u2587 Development Area (BDA), Beijing, 100176, China (People\u2019s Republic). This does also encompass the corresponding usage by third parties on behalf of the aforementioned beneficiaries. \u201cCorresponding usage\u201d shall encompass any kind of usage for any products, processes or services of the aforementioned beneficiaries.\n4.11 All rights of use granted to Daimler under Section 4 shall also encompass a corresponding usage by cooperation partners (Automotive Manufacturers) of Daimler Group (Daimler AG and/or affiliated companies (\u00a7 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) of Daimler AG) regarding products, processes or services that have been or
