I'd probably do:
<name type="personal">
<namePart>Taylor, Mike</namePart>
<role>
<roleTerm type="code" authority="marcrelator">cph</roleTerm>
<roleTerm type="text" authority="marcrelator">Copyright
holder</roleTerm>
</role>
</name>
That could be used either in the main record, or inside <relatedItem> as
Ray suggested if you're just referring to the abstract.
