As from such notification, Oculis shall not be responsible for costs associated with such Licensed Patents, and, where such notification is provided following such time as Xxxxxx assumes responsible for performing patenting matters as set forth above, Oculis shall not be responsible for the preparation, filing, prosecution, protection and maintenance of the mentioned Licensed Patents and such Patent Rights shall cease to be Licensed Patents and the provisions of Agreement shall be of no further effect with respect to such patent and/or country of the Territory.
Licensed Patent Rights The term “Licensed Patent Rights” shall mean rights arising out of or resulting from:
Patent Rights The State and the U. S. Department of Transportation shall have the royalty free, nonexclusive and irrevocable right to use and to authorize others to use any patents developed by the Engineer under this contract.
Patent Term Extensions The Parties shall use reasonable efforts to obtain all available supplementary protection certificates, patent term restorations, and other extensions (collectively, “Extensions”) of the Acceleron Patent Rights and Joint Patent Rights (including those available under the Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act). Each Party shall execute such authorizations and other documents and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to obtain such Extensions. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in gaining Extensions wherever applicable to Acceleron Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights. The holder of the applicable NDA may determine what Extensions of any such Patent Rights shall be made; provided that, if in any country such holder has an option to extend the patent term for only one of several patents, the first Party shall consult with the other Party before making the election. If more than one patent is eligible for such an Extension, the Parties shall select in good faith a strategy that shall maximize patent protection and commercial value for each Licensed Product. All filings for such Extensions, as determined by the holder of the applicable NDA, shall be made by the Party to whom responsibility for Prosecution of the Acceleron Patent Rights or Joint Patent Rights are assigned, and the owner of record of the applicable Patent Right shall assist with such filings; provided that, in the event that the Party to whom such responsibility is assigned elects not to file for an Extension, such Party shall (a) inform the other Party of its intention not to file, (b) grant the other Party the right to file for such Extension in the Patent Rights’ owner’s name, and (c) provide all necessary assistance in connection therewith. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) pursuant to the Shire Agreement, Shire and Acceleron will consult in selecting Patent Rights to extend the patent term with respect to “Licensed Products” under the Shire Agreement, and Shire shall make the decision in all countries of the world other than those of North America with respect to such “Licensed Products” under the Shire Agreement, and the filings for Extensions with respect thereto will be made by the party who is responsible for Prosecuting Patent Rights under the Shire Agreement, and, as such, Celgene’s rights under this Section 8.9 are subject to Shire’s prior rights; and (ii) Acceleron shall keep Celgene informed of all elections with respect to Extensions made pursuant to the Shire Agreement that affect Acceleron Patent Rights, and, to the extent that Shire is making any such elections, Acceleron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Shire to take the actions specified by this Section 8.9 in a manner consistent with the Shire Agreement; provided that Acceleron will not be in breach of its obligations under this Section 8.9 if, after using such commercially reasonable efforts, it is unable to comply with such obligations because of actions taken or not taken by Shire.
ROYALTIES AND PATENTS The Contractor shall pay all royalties and license fees. The Contractor shall defend all suits or claims for infringement of any patent rights and shall save the State harmless from loss on account thereof, except that the State shall be responsible for all such loss when a particular design, process or the product of a particular manufacturer or manufacturers is specified, but if the Contractor has reason to believe that the design, process or product specified is an infringement of a patent, The Contractor shall be responsible for such loss unless he promptly gives such information to the Architect.
License Term The license term shall commence upon the License Effective Date, provided, however, that where an acceptance or trial period applies to the Product, the License Term shall be extended by the time period for testing, acceptance or trial.
Patent Term Extension The Parties will cooperate in selecting a patent within the Patent Rights to seek a term extension for or supplementary protection certificate under in accordance with the applicable laws of any country. Each Party agrees to execute any documents and to take any additional actions as the other Party may reasonably request in connection therewith.
Patent/Copyright Materials/Proprietary Infringement Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Contract, Contractor shall be solely responsible for clearing the right to use any patented or copyrighted materials in the performance of this Contract. Contractor warrants that any software as modified through services provided hereunder will not infringe upon or violate any patent, proprietary right or trade secret right of any third party. Contractor agrees that, in accordance with the more specific requirement contained in paragraph 18 below, it shall indemnify, defend and hold County and County Indemnitees harmless from any and all such claims and be responsible for payment of all costs, damages, penalties and expenses related to or arising from such claim(s), including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees, costs and expenses.
NOTICE AND ASSISTANCE REGARDING PATENT AND COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT The provisions of this clause shall be applicable only if the amount of this Agreement exceeds $100,000. (a) The Contractor shall report to the Government through BSA promptly and in reasonable written detail, each notice or claim of patent or copyright infringement based on the performance of this Agreement of which the Contractor has knowledge. (b) In the event of any claim or suit against the Government on account of any alleged patent or copyright infringement arising out of the performance of this Agreement or out of the use of any supplies furnished or work or services performed hereunder, the Contractor shall furnish to the Government when requested by the Government or BSA, all evidence and information in possession of the Contractor pertaining to such suit or claim. Such evidence and information shall be furnished at the expense of the Government except where the Contractor has agreed to indemnify the Government or BSA. (c) This clause shall be included in all subcontracts.
Joint Patent Rights If not already established under the Research Collaboration Agreement, prior to either Party filing any Patent Right disclosing Joint Program Technology or Joint Probody Platform Improvements, the Parties shall establish a patent committee (the “Patent Committee”) comprised of at least one (1) representative of each Party for the purpose of facilitating the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance and defense of Joint Patent Rights. As agreed upon by the Parties, meetings of the Patent Committee may be face-to-face or may be conducted by teleconferences or videoconferences, from time to time as needed. The Patent Committee will be the forum through which the Parties coordinate their respective obligations to each other described in Sections 5.2.2 and 5.2.3 hereof and in this Section. In the event the Parties conceive or generate any Joint Program Technology or Joint Probody Platform Improvements, the Parties shall promptly meet to discuss and determine, based on mutual consent, whether to seek patent protection thereon, which Party will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patents and how to pay for the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patents. It is presumed that ImmunoGen will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint Program Technology or Joint Conjugation Probody Platform Improvements, and that CytomX will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint Unconjugated Probody Platform Improvements. Neither Party will file any Joint Patent Right without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Party controlling filing and prosecution of any such Joint Patent Right (a) shall keep the other Party informed regarding each Patent Right, (b) shall consider in good faith any recommendations made by the other Party in regard to the filing, prosecution or maintenance of any such Patent Right and (c) shall not unreasonably refuse to incorporate any recommendations made by the other Party in regard to such filing, prosecution or maintenance.
