In every contract for intellectual property (IP) I have seen (although these are mostly for patents) there is a clause stating that the license ends when the IP expires; i.e. once it is in teh public domain, the contract has expired. Simialrly, there is also a clause granting rights to extensions and improvements that have not yet been developed.
