8.1. The intellectual property of all items designed, developed and manufactured by Scan resides with Scan. The payment of Non Recurring Engineering (NRE) charges by a Purchaser does not confer any rights to the intellectual property of any designs which emanate directly or indirectly from the development. As part of any contract, whether it includes the payment of NRE or not, the Purchaser must accept without reservation that Scan is the rightful owner of all intellectual property rights for products which are supplied under contract or standard supplies to Purchaser. The Purchaser must not copy, or allow any third party to copy the designs of any Scan’s products.

8.2. Copyright in any specification, drawing, digital software, technical description, photographs and other documents supplied by Scan generally or in connection with the Order and all intellectual property rights in the design of any parts of the equipment or provisions of services, whether such design be registered or not, shall vest in Scan absolutely. The Purchaser shall keep confidential any information expressed or confirmed by Scan in writing to be confidential and shall not disclose it without Scan prior consent in writing by an authorised officer (ref. § 1.3) to any third party or use it other than for the operation and maintenance of any equipment provided.

10.2. No waiver of any provision of these GTCS shall constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the same provision on another occasion. Failure of either party to enforce any provision of these GTCS shall not constitute a waiver of such provision or any other provision(s) of these GTCS.

10.3. Should any provision of these GTCS be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision may be modified by such court in compliance with the law giving effect to the intent of the parties and enforced as modified. All other terms and conditions of these GTCS shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed in accordance with the modified provision.

10.4. These GTCS and all contracts of sale entered into between the Parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Denmark without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provisions. Any suits, actions or proceedings that may be instituted by either of the Parties against the other shall be instituted exclusively before the competent courts of Denmark, however, without prejudice to Scan’s right to bring suits, actions or proceedings in any other court which would have jurisdiction if this provision had not been incorporated into these GTCS.
