Employee acknowledges that, by reason of being employed by Employer at the relevant times, to the extent permitted by law, all Work Product consisting of copyrightable subject matter is “work made for hire” as defined in the Copyright Act of 1976 (17 U.S.C. §101) and such copyrights are therefore owned by Employer. To the extent that the foregoing does not apply, Employee hereby irrevocably assigns to Employer, and its successors and assigns, for no additional consideration, Employee’s entire right, title and interest in and to all Work Product and Intellectual Property Rights therein including, without limitation, the right to sue, counterclaim and recover for all past, present and future infringement, misappropriation or dilution thereof, and all rights corresponding thereto throughout the world. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to reduce or limit Employer’s right, title or interest in any Work Product or Intellectual Property Rights so as to be less in any respect than Employer would have had in the absence of this Agreement.
