In such a case, the contractor shall be entitled to rescind the agreement and recover its damages from the client.
18.2 The Contractor remains the owner of delivered items for as long as the Client:

Client is not permitted to transfer the license or to sublicense. Upon sale of the item by the principal to a third party, the license passes by operation of law to the transferee of the item.
19.4 The Contractor shall not be liable for damages suffered by the Client as a result of an infringement of intellectual property rights of third parties. Client shall indemnify Op-Trader for any third party claim regarding an infringement of intellec-tual property rights.
