Except as set forth above, the Freelancer retains no rights to use, and will not challenge the validity of the Buyer’s ownership in such Intellectual Property Rights. The Freelancer hereby waives any moral rights, rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal or inalienable rights under applicable law in and to the work product.
