In furtherance of the foregoing, I agree that the results and proceeds of my services in connection with the Interview and Recording are works made for hire for Company as defined in Section 101 of the Copyright Act of 1976. To the extent the Interview, the Recording, the Materials, or any part of either does not qualify as, or otherwise fails to be, a work made for hire, I shall, and hereby do, (a) assign, transfer, and otherwise convey to Company, irrevocably and in perpetuity, throughout the universe, all of my right, title, and interest, if any, in and to the Interview, the Recording, and the Materials, including without limitation all copyright and other intellectual property rights (which shall include, without limitation, all registration, renewal, and reversion rights) and the right to register and sue to enforce such copyrights against infringers; and (b) irrevocably waive any and all claims I may now or hereafter have in any jurisdiction to so-called “moral rights” or rights of droit moral in the Interview, the Recording, and the Materials.

Any acknowledgment or credit accorded to me in connection with the Work or the Materials, if any, shall be determined by Company in Company’s sole discretion.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, I hereby irrevocably waive all legal and equitable rights relating to all liabilities, claims, demands, actions, suits, damages, and expenses, including but not limited to claims for copyright or trademark infringement, infringement of moral rights, libel, defamation, invasion of any rights of privacy, violation of rights of publicity, physical or emotional injury or distress, or any similar claim or cause of action in tort, contract, or any other legal theory, now known or hereafter known in any jurisdiction throughout the world (collectively, “Claims”), arising directly or indirectly from the Authorized Persons’ exercise of their rights under this Release and the use and exploitation of the Work, the Interview, the Recording, and/or the Materials, and whether resulting in whole or in part by the negligence of Company or any other person, covenant not to make or bring any such Claim against any Authorized Persons, and forever release and discharge the Authorized Persons from liability under such Claims.
