I had a similar one that claimed all IP to the full extent of the law, and anything beyond that extent, they reserved the right of first refusal to purchase it if sold.

Of course, it also required arbitration of anything around that area.

They seemed surprised when I brought it up as onerous!

Edit: This was in the UK where these seem to be becoming the norm.

Careful on that one. A good negotiator will always want you to think that what you want in your favour is surprising, onerous and that nobody has asked for that before.
