Third Party:Any party that is not a Party to this Agreement.

Article II. License

  1. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of payment of the compensation stipulated in Article 3 below, the Data Owner will grant to the Grantee a one-time, non-exclusive, non-transferable right (license) to refer to the full study reports and to use the (robust) studies summaries. Such right (license) will be implemented by a Letter of Access in the form set forth under Annex 1 to this Agreement.
  2. The Data Owner will also provide the Grantee with (Robust) Study Summaries in the form of a printfile based on the entries in the EU REACH joint registration dossier of the Data Owner(s).
  3. If requested by the Regulatory Authority, the Data Owner will make the full study reports available to the Regulatory Authority.
  4. The License granted hereunder is limited for the sole purpose of compliance with Korea REACH requirements for the Substance. No sub-licensing is permitted. The Grantee shall abstain from any other use, whether commercial or non-commercial. For the avoidance of doubt, any further use of the Studies shall be subject to an additional written agreement.
  5. The Parties recognise and agree that the Studies remain the exclusive property of the Data Owner(s) represented by ReachCentrum and that intellectual property rights and any other protection rights connected with the Studies, including, but not limited to, patents and trademarks, are and shall continue to be the exclusive property of the Data Owner(s) represented by ReachCentrum.
  6. For the sake of clarity, this Agreement does not grant any ownership rights or change existing ownership rights to any of the Studies provided under this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any disclosure regarding the Studies shall vest any present or future rights in any patents, trade secrets or property rights and no license(s) other than those specified hereunder.
  7. In case the Grantee is the lead registrant for the Substance, by signing this Agreement, the Grantee is bound by the obligation to inform Third Party co-registrants of the same Substance about the need to obtain right to refer (license) to the Studies for the fulfilment of Korea REACH requirements. Upon signature of the present Agreement, the Grantee shall provide ReachCentrum with the relevant contact details and tonnage bands information of such Third Parties.

Article III. Compensation

  1. In consideration of the License granted under Article 2 above, the Grantee will compensate the Data Owner.
