2. DOCUMENTS
2.1. In relation to all documents and information of any nature whatsoever which have been or are hereafter provided by the Sub-Contractor in the course of performing its obligations under the Sub-Contract ("Documents") the Sub-Contractor hereby grants (or, if such grant cannot legally take place until a later date, agrees to grant) to the Beneficiary with effect from the date of this Deed or in the case of Documents not yet in existence with effect from the creation thereof, an irrevocable royalty-free non-exclusive licence (such licence to remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the termination of the Sub-Contract or determination of the employment of the Sub-Contractor under the Sub-Contract or any dispute thereunder or hereunder) to use and to reproduce all Documents for any purpose whatsoever connected with the Services or the provision of the Services by the Authority or any third party. Such licence will carry the right to grant sub-licences and will be transferable to third parties.
2.2. The Beneficiary will not hold the Sub-Contractor liable for any use it may make of the Documents for any purpose other than that for which they were originally provided by the Sub-Contractor unless the Sub-Contractor authorises such use and confirms that the Documents are suitable for it.
2.3. The Sub-Contractor agrees on reasonable request at any time and following reasonable written prior notice to give the Beneficiary or those authorised by it access to the Documents and to provide copies (including CD-Roms, copy negatives and CAD disks) thereof at the Beneficiary's expense.
2.4. The Sub-Contractor warrants to the Beneficiary that the Documents (save to the extent duly appointed sub-consultants and sub-contractors have been used to prepare the same) are its own original work and that in any event their use in connection with the Services, including use by the Beneficiary in accordance with the licence granted by this clause 2, will not infringe the rights of any third party.
