If such IP does not transfer automatically to us, you will do what is needed to make sure that the IP is properly and fully assigned or transferred to us, including any signing or arranging for signature of any documentation that might be required. This includes all IP either produced jointly or on behalf of us. This does not affect your ownership of Your Marks, all of which shall be retained by you at all times.
