Patents and Inventions The Contractor shall promptly and fully report to the Department any discovery or invention arising out of or developed in the course of performance of this Agreement. If the services under this Agreement are supported by a federal grant of funds, the Contractor shall promptly and fully report to the federal government for the federal government to make a determination as to whether patent protection on such invention shall be sought and how the rights in the invention or discovery, including rights under any patent issued thereon, shall be disposed of and administered in order to protect the public interest.
PATENTS AND ROYALTIES Unless otherwise provided, the Contractor shall be solely responsible for obtaining the right to use any patented or copyrighted materials in the performance of the contract resulting from this Invitation for Bids.

In the event of any claim against the County of copyright or patent infringement, the County shall promptly provide written notification to the Contractor. If such a claim is made, the Contractor shall use its best efforts to promptly purchase for the County any infringing products or services or procure a license, at no cost to the County, which will allow continued use of the service or product. If none of the alternatives are reasonably available, the County agrees to return the article on request to the Contractor and receive reimbursement, if any, as may be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, AND ROYALTIES The Provider agrees that if any discovery or invention arises or is developed in the course of or as a result of work or services performed under this Agreement, or in any way connected herewith, the discovery or invention will be deemed transferred to and owned by the state of Florida. Any and all patent rights accruing under or in connection with the performance of this Agreement are hereby reserved to the state of Florida.

The Provider will indemnify and hold the OAG and its employees harmless from any claim against the OAG for infringement of patent, trademark, copyright or trade secrets. The OAG will provide prompt written notification of any such claim. During the pendency of any claim of infringement, the Provider may, at its option and expense, procure for the OAG, the right to continue use of, or to replace or modify the article to render it non-infringing. If the Provider uses any design, device, or materials covered by letters patent, or copyright, it is mutually agreed and understood without exception the compensation paid pursuant to this Agreement includes all royalties or costs arising from the use of such design, device, or materials in any way involved in the work contemplated by this Agreement.

ROYALTIES, PATENTS AND COPYRIGHTS The Contractor shall pay all royalties and license fees. The Contractor shall defend suits or claims for infringement of copyrights and patent rights and shall hold the Owner and Architect harmless from loss on account thereof, but shall not be responsible for such defense or loss when a particular design, process or product of a particular manufacturer or manufacturers is required by the Contract Documents, or where the copyright violations are contained in Drawings, Specifications or other documents prepared by the Owner or Architect. However, if the Contractor has reason to believe that the required design, process or product is an infringement of a copyright or a patent, the Contractor shall be responsible for such loss unless such information is promptly furnished to the Architect.
