A separate legal agreement for IPR? That's just adding unnecessary complexity. I'd go with option B to keep it simple and straightforward.

Option A seems a bit one-sided. I'd want to make sure both parties' interests are protected. Maybe a combination of A and B would work best.

I think option B is the way to go. Both parties have a vested interest in the IPR, and it should be clearly defined in the contract.
