Article 88.
No action shall be brought and no claim made on the one hand
by Turkish nationals or persons residing or carrying on business in
Turkey, and on the other hand by nationals of the Allied Powers
or persons residing or carrying on their business in the territory
of these Powers, nor by third parties having derived title during
the war from such persons, by reason of any occurrence which has
taken place within the territory of the other party, between the
date of the beginning of a state of war and that of the coming into
force of the present Treaty, which might be held to constitute an
infringement of rights of industrial property or rights of literary
or artistic property either existing at any time during the war, or
revived under the provisions of Article 86.
Among the occurrences referred to above are included the use
by the Governments of the High Contracting Parties, or by any
person acting on their behalf, or with their consent, of rights of
industrial, literary or artistic property, as well as the sale, the
offering for sale or the use of products, apparatus, or any articles
whatsoever to which these rights apply.
Article 89.
Licences for the use of industrial property, or for the
reproduction of literary or artistic works, granted before the war
by or to nationals of the Allied Powers or persons residing in their
territories or carrying on business therein, on the one hand, to or
by Turkish nationals on the other hand, shall be considered as
cancelled as from the date of the beginning of a state of war between
Turkey and the Allied Pow r er concerned. But in any case, the
former beneficiary of a licence of this kind shall have the right
within a period of six months from the coming into force of the
present Treaty to require from the proprietor of the rights the grant
of a new licence, the conditions of which, in default of agreement
betw r een the parties, shall be fixed by the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal
referred to in Section V of this Part. The Tribunal shall have the
power, where the circumstances demand it, to fix at the same time
the amount wdiich it considers fair payment for the use of the
property during the war.
Article 90.
The inhabitants of territories detached from Turkey under the
present Treaty shall, notwithstanding this transfer and the change
of nationality consequent thereon, continue in complete enjoyment
in Turkey of all the rights in industrial, literary and artistic property
to which they were entitled under Ottoman law at the time of
transfer.
Rights of industrial, literary and artistic property which are in
existence in territories detached from Turkey under the present
Treaty at the time of separation, or which are re-established or
restored by the provisions of Article 86, shall be recognised by the
State to which the said territory is transferred, and shall remain in
existence in that territory for the same period of time as that which
they would have enjoyed under Ottoman law.
