(b) Each sublicense granted by a Licensee under the license granted to such Licensee in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 shall be granted pursuant to an agreement that (i) is subject to, and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and includes provisions at least as protective of Licensor and its Affiliates as the provisions of this Agreement (except that such sublicense shall not be required to provide rights for Licensor to audit Sublicensee in accordance with, and subject to, Section 2.13 (1) if the sublicense is granted to an Affiliate, (2) with respect to sublicenses of Licensed Know-How, Licensed Copyrights or Business Software where the primary purpose of such arrangement with sublicensee is not to grant access to such Licensed Know-How, Licensed Copyrights or Business Software or (3) with respect to sublicenses of the licenses granted under Section 2.6), (ii) to the extent with respect to Licensed Patents or SpecCo Licensed Standards and if Sublicensee is a Third Party, provides that Licensor shall be an intended beneficiary thereunder with the right of direct enforcement against the Sublicensee (including, for clarity, with respect to the audit rights set forth in Section 2.13 to the extent applicable), and (iii) to the extent with respect to Licensed Patents or SpecCo Licensed Standards, is in writing if the Sublicensee is a Third Party.
