All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).
WHEREAS, Assignors and Assignee are parties to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 28, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Assignee has agreed to purchase from Assignors the Assets;
WHEREAS, Assignors have agreed to transfer, contribute and assign to Assignee all of Assignors’ right, title and interest in and to the Assignors’ brand name, service mark, trademark, trade dress, logo, slogan, trade name, corporate name, internet domain name, including, without limitation, those set forth on Exhibit A, together with all translations, adaptations, derivations and combinations thereof and including all goodwill associated therewith and all registrations or application for registration or renewals of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Marks”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Assignors have agreed to assign the Marks and all rights therein to Assignee.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and obligations recited herein, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Assignor agrees as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Each Assignor hereby irrevocably assigns to the Assignee: (i) all of such Assignor’s right, title, and interest in and to the Marks, together with the goodwill associated therewith; (ii) any and all legal actions and rights and remedies at law or in equity for past, present and future infringements, misappropriations, or other violations of the Marks, including the right to prosecute, maintain and sue for, collect, and retain all damages (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), profits, proceeds, and all other remedies associated therewith; and (iii) any and all income, royalties, and payments accruing on or after the date of this Agreement with respect to the Marks, for the Assignee’s own use and enjoyment and for the use and enjoyment of the Assignee’s successors, assigns, or other legal representatives.
2. Each Assignor agrees not to use (and to terminate and discontinue all use of) the terms contained in the Marks and any terms similar thereto in any domain name, domain name registration, trademark, service mark, trade name, company name, legal name, fictitious business name, logo, and any other indicator of origin, with regard to itself and any business or entity at any time owned or controlled by such Assignor.
3. Each Assignor authorizes and requests the Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks of the United States, and any other official throughout the world whose duty is to register and record ownership in trademark registrations and applications for registration of trademarks, to record the Assignee as the assignee and owner of any and all of such Assignor’s rights in the Marks.
4. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
5. The terms of the Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to Assignors’ representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities (subject to the limitations therein) relating to the Assets, including the Marks, are incorporated herein by this reference. Each Assignor acknowledges and agrees that the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities (subject to the limitations therein) contained in the Purchase Agreement shall not be superseded hereby but shall remain in full force and effect to the full extent provided therein. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the terms hereof, the terms of the Purchase Agreement shall govern.
6. Assignors jointly and severally covenant and agree to execute and deliver, at the request of the Assignee, such further instruments of transfer and assignment and to take such other action as Assignee may reasonably request to more effectively consummate the assignments contemplated by this Agreement. If Assignee is unable for any reason to secure any of the Assignor’s signature to any document required to file, prosecute, register, or memorialize the assignment of any rights under any Marks as provided under this Agreement, such Assignor hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Assignee and Assignee’s duly authorized officers and agents as Assignor’s agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on Assignor’s behalf and instead of Assignor to take all lawfully permitted acts to further the filing, prosecution, registration, memorialization of assignment, issuance, and enforcement of rights under such Marks, all with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Assignor. The foregoing is deemed a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
7. This Agreement and the legal relations between the parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such State and without regard to conflicts of law doctrines.
