You agree to deliver promptly to the Company upon termination of your employment for any reason, or at any other time that the Company may so request, all documents (and all copies thereof), whether written, electronic or in any other form, relating to the business of the Company, and all property associated therewith, which you may then possess or have under your control; provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, you may retain your calendar, contacts, personal correspondence, compensation documents and all information reasonably needed for tax return preparation.

You and the Company mutually agree that all Intellectual Property and work product created in connection with this Agreement which is subject to copyright shall be deemed to be “work made for hire,” and that all rights to such copyrights shall be vested in the Company. If for any reason the Company cannot be deemed to have commissioned any such “work made for hire,” and its rights to copyright therefore are in doubt, then you agree not to claim to be the proprietor of such work prepared for the Company, and to irrevocably assign to the Company, at the Company’s expense, all rights in such copyright of the work prepared for the Company. You further agree to execute any documentation reasonably necessary to assign over or vest any Intellectual Property in the Company.
