Document Description

The 'Intellectual Property Full and Final Settlement Agreement' is a legal document that serves as a settlement agreement between two parties, namely the 'Owner' and the 'Applicant'. The agreement is made to resolve any disputes or oppositions related to the registered and pending trademarks of both parties in the jurisdiction state.

 

The agreement begins with a set of recitals that provide background information. It states that the 'Owner' is a company1 description and has registered the trade marks 'registered company1' in trademark class1 under registration no(s) regist no reg. It also mentions that the 'Owner' has applied for registration of the trade marks 'pending trademarks' in pending class under registration no(s) pending reg. Additionally, it states that the 'Applicant' has applied for registration of the trade marks 'other registered' in class other under registration no(s) other reg, in respect of the applicant's trade marks applications.

 

Both parties agree that their respective trademarks can co-exist in the jurisdiction state in their respective principal areas of business. To settle the proceedings and oppositions, they have agreed to the terms of this agreement.

 

The agreement consists of several clauses that outline the obligations and undertakings of both parties. Clause 1 states that the 'Applicant' agrees to apply to the trade marks registry to amend/rectify its registration for the registered trade marks in class only by deleting specific items. The 'Applicant' also agrees not to use either of the registered trade marks in the jurisdiction state in respect of certain conditions. Furthermore, the 'Applicant' undertakes to amend its application for registration of the trademark(s) as specified.

 

Clause 2 states that the 'Owner' agrees to withdraw its oppositions and apply to discontinue the court proceedings within a specified number of compliance days upon receiving evidence of the 'Applicant's' compliance with the clauses mentioned above.

 

Clause 3 addresses the costs incurred in respect of this agreement, the opposition, and the proceedings. Depending on the answer to a specific question, the costs will be borne by each party or by either the 'Owner' or the 'Applicant'.

 

If the intention question is answered affirmatively, Clause 5 states that the agreement shall benefit and bind the parties, their successors, and assigns.

 

The agreement concludes with the signatures of both parties and the names of the witnesses.

 

Schedule 1 provides a list of the 'Owner's' registered trademarks, including the trade mark, registration no., registration date, and goods/services.

 

If the pending question is answered affirmatively, Schedule 2 provides a list of the 'Owner's' pending trademarks, including the trade mark, registration no., registration date, and goods/services.
