Rowan Barron · Answer 1

The correct answer is c. the exhaustion doctrine.

Explanation:

"Exhaustion" refers to one of the limitations of intellectual property rights. Once a product protected by an intellectual property right has been marketed by your SME or by others with your consent, your SME is no longer entitled to exercise the intellectual property rights of the commercial exploitation of this given product, since it They have "sold out." Sometimes this limitation is also called the "first sale doctrine", since commercial exploitation rights on a given product end with the first sale of the product. Unless the legislation specifically provides otherwise, your SME may not control or oppose subsequent acts of resale, rental, loan or other forms of commercial use by third parties. There is a fairly broad consensus that this applies at least within the framework of the national market.
