<br />O. PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, AND ROYALTIES
<br />1. All legal title and every right, interest, claim or demand of any kind, in and to any patent,
<br />trademark or copyright, or application for the same, or any other intellectual property right
<br />to, the work developed or produced under or in connection with this Agreement, is the
<br />exclusive property of DEO to be granted to and vested in the Florida Department of State for
<br />the use and benefit of the state; and no person, firm or corporation shall be entitled to use
<br />the same without the written consent of the Florida Department of State. Any contribution
<br />by the Grantee or its employees, agents or contractors to the creation of such works shall be
<br />considered works made for hire by the Grantee for DEO and, upon creation, shall be owned
<br />exclusively by DEO. To the extent that any such works may not be considered works made
<br />for hire for DEO under applicable law, Grantee agrees, upon creation of such works, to
<br />automatically assign to DEO ownership, including copyright interests and any other
<br />intellectual property rights therein, without the necessity of any further consideration.
<br />2. If any discovery or invention arises or is developed in the course or as a result of work or
<br />services performed with funds from this Agreement, Grantee shall refer the discovery or
<br />invention to DEO who will refer it to the Department of State to determine whether patent
<br />protection will be sought in the name of the State of Florida.
<br />3. Where activities supported by this Agreement produce original writings, sound recordings,
<br />pictorial reproductions, drawings or other graphic representations and works of any similar
<br />nature, DEO has the right to use, duplicate, and disclose such materials in whole or in part, in
<br />any manner, for any purpose whatsoever and to allow others acting on behalf of DEO to do
<br />so. Grantee shall give DEO written notice when any books, manuals, films, websites, web
<br />elements, electronic information, or other copyrightable materials are produced.

<br />University is authorized in its own name to perform all things necessary to secure letters of
<br />patent, copyrights, and trademarks on any works it produces. Within 30 calendar days of
<br />same, the president of a State University shall report to the Department of State any such
<br />university's action taken to secure or exploit such trademarks, copyrights, or patents in
<br />accordance with s. 1004.23(6), F.S..
