All copyrightable GCM Works produced and/or prepared by GCM employees, independent contractors, and volunteers within the scope of their employment or their contractual or other duties are required to contain proper copyright notices indicating that GCM is the legal owner of the copyright. In instances where GCM determines that the copyright of the Derivative Work can be owned by a GCM employee (who is creating the Derivative Work outside the scope of his or her employment duties), the GCM employee is required to specifically indicate the copyright notice of the Derivative Work and all copyright registrations, that the Derivative Works relies on underlying material that is owned by GCM. From time to time, GCM may need to have its employees sign forms to assist GCM in registering its copyrights in the GCM Works or Derivative Works, and also may be required to assist GCM in establishing its copyright ownership. All employees agree that GCM can obtain full disclosure in writing of any and all GCM Works created by the employee at any time during the course of employment. GCM may request from its employees, any agreements it needs to implement this CW Policy, but the absence of such agreements does not affect GCM's rights under this policy.

_{1 GCM Work(s) developed or prepared by independent contractors or volunteers at GCM's request will be considered "works made for hire" under specific guidelines set forth under United States copyright law (17 U.S.C §101 et seq.) and cases, and/or assigned to GCM by contract or written agreement.}
