Ubisoft has acquired the Tom Clancy name outright in connection with video games this would theoretically allow them to produce a subsim game in under the Tom Clancy name without paying additional licensing fees, should they decide to diversify the brand into the simulation arena.
See the press release here.

In an additional aside Paramount has acquired the "Jack Ryan" name and are apparently developing a new movie with it but wierdly it is not based on one of Mr Clancy's books.
