Dan,
If he's only concerned with having the code in case something happens to your company, you could offer the code up in a "source code escrow" service.
That way he knows that if you go bellyup and dissappear on him he has a 3rd party that is holding onto his code for hime so he can find someone else to maintain his site.

I have a potential client that is real confused about copywrite vs. ownership of code.
He want to know that the look and feel of his site is copywrited. I can understand that.
But he also wants in an agreement that the he would own the code used to develop the site.
Since it is basically a course registration system I am not willing to give him an agreement saying I would not use the same code to develop a course registration system on another area other than his market.
I can see a non-compete agreement but that would still only cover his market.
Any thoughts on how to best handle this with him?
Any sample agreements someone could share that might cover this?
This is the 1st time I have run into this request.
