Intellectual Property Licenses Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the TSA, and except as otherwise provided in Section 5.13 of the SPA, it shall be the responsibility of the Receiving Party (at the Receiving Party’s sole cost and expense) to obtain all licenses associated with the use of third party intellectual property, including but not limited to copyrights (e.g., software), trademarks and patents (and/or consents and extensions relating to such licenses), if any, necessary for the provision of Services to the Receiving Party during the Term. The Service Provider agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Receiving Party in its negotiations with any licensors from whom the Receiving Party may require such a license (or consent or extension) during the Term. In the event the Receiving Party is unable to obtain a necessary license, consent or extension, the Services related to such license shall be removed from the scope of the TSA, without a reduction in fees or payments owed by the Receiving Party under the TSA. In all events, and in addition to (and not in limitation of) any similar rights that the Service Provider may have under the TSA, the Receiving Party shall indemnify, defend and hold the Service Provider harmless from and against any actions, liabilities and/or claims relating to the licenses and the license matters discussed in this provision. The Receiving Party’s obligation to pay any fees under this Section 1.5 shall apply whether or not such claims for fees arise from the Receiving Party’s continued or past access to or benefit from third party intellectual property. The Receiving Party also acknowledges the Service Provider’s right to initiate discussion with third party licensors that may involve the Receiving Party’s use of intellectual property. All negotiated agreements with third party licensors for the future use of or rights to intellectual property and associated services shall be at the cost of the Service Provider, provided that the Receiving Party shall bear the cost of incremental third party use fees which are specifically identified in the agreements with the third party licensors and which relate solely to the Receiving Party’s use (“Incremental License Fees”). Such Incremental License Fees shall be approved in advance in writing by the Receiving Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Each Party will not terminate any In-License to which such Party is the contracting party in a manner that would terminate rights that are sublicensed to the other Party. In the event that a Party receives notice of an alleged breach by such Party under an In-License to which it is a party and for which termination of such In-License is being sought by the counterparty, then such Party will promptly, but in no event less than [***] thereafter, provide written notice thereof to the other Party and grant the other Party the right (but not the obligation) to cure such alleged breach. In the event that a Party intends to materially amend an In-License to which it is a party, then such Party will promptly, but in no event less than [***] before, provide written notice thereof to the other Party and grant the other Party the right (but not the obligation), acting reasonably, to reject any amendment that would either increase the receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement, including any financial obligations or decrease the receiving Party’s rights under this Agreement.

In all cases, the rights granted to any sublicensee shall be subject and subordinate to the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement. Where a sublicensee of Merck that is not an Affiliate is to perform any Research Program activities during the Research Program Term for the applicable Research Program, the grant of such a sublicense shall require the prior written consent of Ablynx (not to be unreasonably withheld), and Merck shall oversee the performance by such sublicensee of the relevant activities by the sublicensee in a manner that would be reasonably expected to result in their timely and successful completion of such activities in accordance with this Agreement, and Merck shall remain responsible and primarily and fully liable for the performance of such activities in accordance with this Agreement. Merck hereby expressly waives any requirement that Ablynx exhaust any right, power or remedy, or proceed against such sublicensee for any obligation or performance hereunder, prior to proceeding directly against Merck with respect to the sublicense. Merck shall ensure compliance with the applicable terms of this Agreement (to the extent applicable to sublicensees) by its sublicensee, including with respect to provisions on confidentiality, intellectual property ownership and compliance with Applicable Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that Merck grants a sublicense so as to enable said sublicensee to perform Research Program activities, Merck shall ensure that its sublicensee is obligated to assign rights to any Program Know-How made by such Third Party sublicensee so that such rights can be conveyed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 7.1.
