Article(40)
The author may dispose of his rights in the work, whether whole or partial, on the basis
of a share percentage in the revenue resulting from utilization of the work.
However, if it is revealed that the agreement was unfair to the author's rights or becomes

output.
Article (42)
If the ownership of the original copy of any type of work of art is transferred, this shall

obligated to grant the author the right to copy, reproduce or display the work, unless
otherwise agreed.
Article (43)
The author shall have exclusive right, if serious moral reasons arise, to ask the court of
first instance to decide the withdrawal of his work from circulation or the introduction of
substantial modifications to it, in spite of his disposal of the financial exploitation rights.
The author shall be obligated in this case to pay to the party to which the financial
exploitation devolved a fair compensation to be estimated by the court, which may decide
to obligate the author to pay this compensation in advance within a certain period of time,
otherwise this will invalidate the decision of the court, or the court may obligate the
author to present a guarantor acceptable to it.
