? One-off payment is a single lump sum. Ongoing royalties are percentage-based payments over time. Nominal consideration (£1) is used when assignment is part of employment or other arrangement.
Minimum annual payment regardless of sales

📜 Scope of Assignment

? All rights means complete ownership transfer. Exclusive means only the Assignee can use it. Non-exclusive means Assignor can still use/license to others.
? Geographic scope of the assignment. Worldwide is most comprehensive. UK-only limits use to United Kingdom.
? Perpetual means forever. Fixed term means the assignment expires after a set period, returning rights to Assignor.

✓ Warranties & Representations

The Assignor typically warrants that they own the IP, have the right to assign it, and it doesn't infringe third-party rights.
? Standard warranties cover ownership and right to assign. Enhanced adds non-infringement guarantees. Limited reduces liability (often used in asset sales).

👤 Moral Rights

UK Law: Creators have moral rights including the right to be identified as author and to object to derogatory treatment of their work. These can be waived in writing.
? Waiving moral rights allows the Assignee to modify the work and not credit the creator. This is common in commercial contexts. Not waiving means creator retains attribution rights.

🔒 Confidentiality

? Both parties typically agree not to disclose confidential information learned during the assignment process.

📋 Further Assurances & Cooperation

The Assignor typically agrees to sign additional documents and assist with registering the transfer with patent offices, trademark registries, etc.

⚖️ Governing Law & Jurisdiction

? Courts mean litigation. Arbitration is private and often faster. Mediation is non-binding negotiation before formal proceedings.
