(2) If the agreement requires delivery of a copy, enabling use occurs when the copy is tendered to the licensee.
(3) If the agreement requires delivery of a copy and steps authorizing the licensee’s use, enabling use occurs when the last of those acts occurs.
(4) In an access contract, enabling use requires tendering all access material necessary to enable the agreed access.
(5) If the agreement requires a transfer of ownership of informational rights and a filing or recording is allowed by law to establish priority of the transferred ownership, on request by the licensee, the licensor shall execute and tender a record appropriate for that purpose.
