Article 48

All requests for access rights shall be made in writing. Unless otherwise agreed by the owner of the foreground or background, access rights shall confer no entitlement to grant sub-licences. Exclusive licences for foreground or background may be granted, subject to written confirmation by all the other participants that they waive their access rights thereto. Without prejudice to paragraph 3, any agreement providing access rights to foreground or background to participants or third parties shall be such as to ensure that potential access rights for other participants are maintained. Without prejudice to Articles 49 and 50 and the grant agreement, participants in the same action shall inform each other as soon as possible of any limitation to the granting of access rights to background, or of any other restriction which might substantially affect the granting of access rights. The termination of its participation in an indirect action shall in no way affect the obligation of that participant to grant access rights to the remaining participants in the same action under the terms and conditions established by the grant agreement.
