Solely for purposes of recording the assignment of Contributed Intellectual Property effected by this Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, and corresponding entities or agencies in any applicable jurisdiction, the applicable Parties shall execute and deliver to Parent intellectual property assignment agreements regarding applicable Contributed Intellectual Property, in each case, in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “IP Assignment Agreements”), and Parent shall thereafter promptly file, or shall cause to be promptly filed, with the appropriate governmental entity such IP Assignment Agreements.

Section 2.11 Further Transfers. The Parties intend that pursuant to this Agreement Spyglass shall receive ownership of all Copyrights, Marks, Patents, and Domain Names which are owned by a Contributor but exclusively used by Spyglass. After the Effective Date, and prior to the IPO, the Parties agree to update the Exhibits hereto to add any applications filed or registrations granted for Contributed Intellectual Property after the Effective Date and prior to the IPO. Furthermore, should a Party identify after the Effective Date any Copyright, Mark, Patent, or Domain Name owned by Dell and exclusively used by Spyglass that was omitted from an applicable Exhibit hereto, upon discovery of the omission, the discovering Party shall notify the other Party of the specific Copyright, Mark, Patent, or Domain Name at issue and request that the applicable Exhibit be corrected.

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not prohibit Spyglass’s use of Dell’s name in a text-only format to describe the historical relationship between Dell and Spyglass.

Section 2.13 Claims and Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the assignments in Section 2.01 - Section 2.07, Spyglass assumes all rights and obligations with respect to past, present, and future claims and liabilities arising out of the Contributed Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, the right to prosecute or take other action regarding any acts of infringement, misappropriation or other violation by a Third Party of the Contributed Intellectual Property.

The Emergency Arbitrator Provisions of the ICC Rules will apply to any Dispute, and the Parties agree that the Emergency Arbitrator Provisions of the ICC Rules will be the exclusive means of seeking any urgent interim or conservatory measures in connection with a Dispute and that the International Chamber of Commerce will be the exclusive forum for seeking any urgent interim or conservatory measures in connection with a Dispute, except that a Party may seek to confirm or enforce an order issued pursuant to the Emergency Arbitrator Provisions of the ICC Rules in any court of competent jurisdiction. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
