Answer:

The answer is Licensing Agreement.

Explanation:

Licensing Agreement is a written contract between two corporations, where corporation A (the property owner) gives permission to corporation B to use that property on the condition that they follow a specific set of rules.

The property owner giving out the license is the licensor, while the corporation seeking the license is the licensee.

A popular example of licensing agreement is when a toy manufacturer seeks the license from famous movie studios to produce action figures based on the characters of their movies.
