Registration of Intellectual Property Rights (a) Each Borrower shall register or cause to be registered on an expedited basis (to the extent not already registered) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable: (i) those Copyrights listed on Exhibit A to the Intellectual Property Security Agreement identified by Lender as material and those intellectual property rights listed on Exhibits B and C to the Intellectual Property Security Agreement delivered to Lender by each Borrower in connection with this Agreement, within thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement, (ii) all registrable Trademarks and Patents any Borrower has developed as of the date of this Agreement which are material to any Borrower's business as currently operated and as contemplated to be operated and which have not yet been registered and all Copyrights reasonably identified by Lender as material Copyrights and which have not yet been registered, in each case within thirty (30) days of the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event Lender identifies any Patent, Trademark or Copyright as material after the date of this Agreement, Borrower shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such determination to cause such Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights to be registered on an expedited basis, and (iii) those additional intellectual property rights developed or acquired by any Borrower from time to time in connection with any product or service and reasonably deemed material by Lender, prior to the sale or licensing of such product or the rendering of such service to any third party, and prior to any Borrower's use of such product (including without limitation major revisions or additions to the intellectual property rights listed on such Exhibits A, B and C). Borrowers shall give Agent written notice of all such applications or registrations within five (5) days thereof. (b) In connection with Borrower's obligations hereunder, Borrowers shall execute and deliver such additional instruments and documents from time to time as Lender shall reasonably request to perfect Lender's security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral. (c) Borrowers shall (i) protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights unless Borrowers have obtained the prior written consent of Lender that no such action is necessary, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that no breach of this Section 6.9(c)(i) shall be deemed to have occurred for failure by Borrower to take appropriate action to so protect, defend and maintain the validity and enforceability of the Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights if Borrowers have provided written notice of the need to take such measures to Agent promptly following any Borrower's learning of the same and Lender fails to respond to such request for consent on a timely basis, it being understood that the timeliness of Lender's response will depend on Agent having sufficiently timely notice from Borrower, (ii) use their best efforts to detect infringements of the Patents and use their best efforts to detect infringements of the Trademarks and Copyrights where any such infringement of any Trademark or Copyright, whether individually or in the aggregate, could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and promptly advise Lender in writing of infringements detected and (iii) not allow any Trademarks, Patents or Copyrights to be abandoned, forfeited or dedicated to the public without the written consent of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that no breach of this Section 6.9(c)(iii) shall be deemed to have occurred if Borrowers have provided at least sixty (60) days prior written notice to Agent of the need to take action so as to avoid any such abandonment, forfeiture or dedication to the public and Lender fails to respond to such request for consent on a timely basis, it being understood that the timeliness of Lender's response will depend on Agent having sufficiently timely notice from Borrower. (d) Subject to attorney-client privilege, Agent may audit Borrowers' Intellectual Property Collateral to confirm compliance with this Section, provided that Borrowers shall not be obligated to provide any information that could reasonably be expected to interfere with or impair its position in the pending litigation between Borrowers and Lender. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take, at Borrowers' sole expense, any actions that Borrowers are required under this Section to take but which any Borrower fails to take, after fifteen (15) days' notice to Borrowers. Borrowers shall reimburse and indemnify Lender for all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses incurred in the reasonable exercise of its rights under this Section.
