Patent Prosecution and Maintenance 14.1 REGENTS will diligently prosecute and maintain the United States and foreign patent applications and patents under REGENTS' PATENT RIGHTS, subject to LICENSEE’S reimbursement REGENTS’ out of pocket costs under Paragraph 14.3 below, and all patent applications and patents under REGENTS’ PATENT RIGHTS will be held in the name of REGENTS. REGENTS will have sole responsibility for retaining and instructing patent counsel, but continued use of such counsel at any point in the patent prosecution process subsequent to initial filing of a U.S. patent application covering the INVENTION will be subject to the approval of LICENSEE. If LICENSEE rejects three of REGENTS’ choice of prosecution counsel, then REGENTS may select new prosecution counsel without LICENSEE’s consent. REGENTS will promptly provide LICENSEE with copies of all relevant documentation so that LICENSEE may be currently informed and apprised of the continuing prosecution and LICENSEE agrees to keep this documentation confidential in accordance with Article 25 (Confidentiality). LICENSEE may comment upon such documentation, provided, however, that if LICENSEE has not commented upon such documentation in reasonable time for REGENTS to sufficiently consider LICENSEE’s comments prior to the deadline for filing a response with the relevant government patent office, REGENTS will be free to respond appropriately without consideration of LICENSEE's comments. LICENSEE and XXXXXXXX's patent counsel will have the right to consult with patent counsel chosen by REGENTS.
