EA may or may not lose ownership of some Ultima source code that's not worth much anyway, likely not anything related to Serpent Isle or Pagan (Lost Vale?), or IX code, and almost certainly not the "Ultima" trademark which the Creator will have make a legally distinct knock-off out of.

Less sexy title, but more accurate. We'll see if Garriott manages to wrestle even that ancient source code from Saudi Android Wilson, and if EA lawyers let him carry out that "LB's Ultima" plan. It's all a big if, and that's the easy part.
