Summary, in English

This presentation for the Licensing executive Scandinavia Society discusses what rules of law affect responsibilities between a licensor and a licensee in infringement matters. Two situations are addressed: (i) action against third parties infringing the licensed right; and (ii) the licensed right infringes third party rights. The scrutiny starts with an overview of what applies regarding responsibility for infringements where the license agreement is silent. Different options for balanced agreement stipulations are considered and suggestions offered. The possibility to obtain insurance coverage is investigated Are the parties free to agree or do mandatory provisions apply?
