BAYER IMPROVEMENT RIGHTS Sample Clauses

BAYER IMPROVEMENT RIGHTS. Within [...*...] days after filing a patent application covering a Bayer Improvement, Bayer shall Notify Avigen of such filing (a "Bayer Improvement Notice"). For purposes of this Agreement, each Bayer Improvement Notice shall be deemed an offer by Bayer to Avigen of a license under Section 2.1(b) to practice under the Claims in such patent application and any patent rights issued or granted therefrom in order to carry out its activities pursuant to this Agreement. Avigen shall have [...*...] days (the "Avigen Election Period") from the date of each Bayer Improvement Notice to accept or reject the Bayer Improvement. If, during the Avigen Election Period, Avigen notifies Bayer in writing that Avigen accepts the Bayer Improvement (or if Avigen fails to respond to Bayer during the Avigen Election Period with respect to the Bayer Improvement Notice), the Claims in such patent application shall continue to be included within the "Bayer Improvement Rights," and as a result, Avigen shall automatically have a royalty-free license (in accordance with Section 2.1(b)) thereunder. If, during the Avigen Election Period, Avigen notifies Bayer that Avigen rejects the Bayer Improvement, the Claims in the patent application covering such Bayer Improvement shall be excluded from the term "Bayer Improvement Rights," and as a result, Avigen shall not have any rights under this Agreement to such Claims.
