a list of reasons for rejection.
The Contractor shall correct the failures specified in the rejection
notice within twenty-four (24) hours after the receipt of the

Upon the third rejection notice, or if the corrections are not made
within two (2) days of the initial rejection notice, the Company may
unilaterally terminate the Agreement without prior notice.

irrevocably grants to the Company during the term of such rights, an
exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, fully paid and
royalty-free license, with rights to sublicense through multiple
levels of sublicensees, to reproduce, distribute, display, perform,
prepare derivative works of and otherwise modify, make, have made,
sell, offer to sell, import, practice methods, processes and

designee, and any successors, the sole and exclusive right, title
and interest in and to such Company Inventions, and IP Rights
relating thereto.
Contractor shall undertake to execute or cause to be executed, when
it is in Contractor’s power to do so, any such documents or
instrument shall continue during and at all times after the end of

execute and file any such documents and instruments and to do all
other lawfully permitted acts to further the application for,
prosecution, issuance, maintenance or transfer of letters patent,
copyright, mask work and other registrations related to such Company
Inventions. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and
