acknowledge and agree that all original works of authorship (the Works of
Authorship) which are produced, developed or authored by me (whether alone or
jointly with others), or otherwise resulting from my work within the scope of
my employment with the Company and which are protectible by copyright are works
made for hire, as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17
U.S.C., Section 101). In the event that any rights to the Works of
Authorship are deemed not to be works made for hire, or in the event that I
should, by operation of law, be deemed to retain any rights in such Works of
Authorship, I hereby irrevocably assign, without any further consideration and
regardless of any use by the Company of any such Work of Authorship, all of my
rights, title and interest, if any, in and to such Works of Authorship to the
Company. I agree that the Company, as the owner of all rights to the Works of
Authorship, has the full and complete right to prepare and create derivative
works based upon the Works of Authorship and any derivative works of such Works
of Authorship and to use, reproduce, publish, print, copy, market, advertise,
