Licensed Patents Immune Design, at its expense, shall have the first right to file, prosecute and maintain all Licensed Patents for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement using patent counsel reasonably approved by IDRI, including conducting any interferences, reexaminations, reissues, oppositions, or request for patent term extension relating thereto. Immune Design shall conduct such filing, prosecution and maintenance in good faith, taking into consideration IDRI’s retained rights hereunder, and consistent with reasonable business judgment, provide IDRI with all relevant or material documentation and proposed filing in the Territory so that IDRI may be concurrently and promptly informed of the continuing prosecution, and consult with IDRI with regards to Immune Design’s patent strategy with the Licensed Patents for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement. Licensed Patents in the name of IDRI shall remain in the name of IDRI. Immune Design shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ***, as applicable. To the extent such ***, Immune Design shall provide IDRI reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prosecution efforts regarding such Licensed Patents in the Territory, and any IDRI comments will be reasonably considered in such prosecution efforts, and included to the extent affecting the IDRI Exclusive Field or IDRI Territory, as the case may be. If Immune Design determines in its sole discretion to abandon or not maintain any Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement in the Territory, then Immune Design shall promptly provide IDRI with written notice of such determination at least sixty (60) days before any deadline for taking action to avoid abandonment and shall provide IDRI with the right, opportunity and reasonable assistance to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in the applicable jurisdiction in IDRI’s sole discretion and at IDRI’s expense, provided that Immune Design shall provide such reasonable assistance at its own costs and expenses. If IDRI elects to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in such jurisdiction for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights, then Immune Design’s license rights to such Licensed Patent in such country will become nonexclusive in such country under such Licensed Patent (and/or patent application). If IDRI desires Immune Design to file, in a particular jurisdiction, a Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement that claims priority to another Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement, IDRI shall provide written notice to Immune Design requesting that Immune Design file such patent application in such jurisdiction. If IDRI provides such written notice to Immune Design, Immune Design shall either (i) file and prosecute such patent application and maintain any patent issuing thereon in such jurisdiction and the Parties shall share the related costs and expenses (A) in countries *** on the basis of *** percent (***%) Immune Design: *** percent (***%) IDRI or (B) in countries within the IDRI Territory equally; or (ii) notify IDRI that Immune Design does not desire to file such patent application in such jurisdiction and provide IDRI with the opportunity to file and prosecute such patent application, provided that if IDRI files and prosecutes such patent application in such jurisdiction, then Immune Design’s license rights to such License Patent in such country will become nonexclusive in such country under such Licensed GLA Patent (and/or patent application). Immune Design shall be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred in connection with its own activities for filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Licensed Patents; IDRI shall be responsible for monitoring of such activities by IDRI.
Third Party Patents If, after June 17, 2014, it was or is Necessary or Useful for Allogene (or Pfizer, to the extent identified by Pfizer prior to the Assignment) to license one or more Patent Rights from one or more Third Parties in order to Develop, Manufacture, Commercialize or use any Allogene Licensed Product, whether directly or through any Allogene Affiliate or Sublicensee, then Allogene may, in its sole discretion, negotiate and obtain a license under such Patent Right(s) (each such Third Party license, or any such Third Party license entered into as of the Effective Date by Allogene or by Pfizer and assigned to Allogene, referred to herein as an “Additional Third Party License”). Any royalty otherwise payable to Cellectis under this Agreement with respect to Net Sales of any Allogene Licensed Product by Allogene, its Affiliates or Sublicensees will be reduced by [***] of the amounts payable to Third Parties pursuant to any Additional Third Party Licenses, such reduction to continue until all such amounts have been expended, provided that in no event will the total royalty payable to Cellectis for any Allogene Licensed Product be less than [***] of the royalty amounts otherwise payable for such Allogene Licensed Product and in no event will the royalty payable to Cellectis for any Allogene Licensed Product be reduced below [***] (in each case, other than in the case of Cellectis’ breach of any representation, warranty or covenant hereunder). For purposes of this Section 5.2.2(b), (i) “Necessary” means that, without a license to use the Third Party’s Patent Right, the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or use of any Allogene Licensed Product in the form such Allogene Licensed Product exists at the time that the Additional Third Party License is executed would, in Allogene’s opinion, infringe such Third Party’s Patent Right and (ii) “Useful” means that Allogene has determined in its discretion that use of such Third Party’s Patent Right would enhance the commercial potential of such Allogene Licensed Product. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree and acknowledge that this Section 5.2.2(b) will not apply with respect to royalties payable by Allogene to any Third Party under any agreement in existence as of June 17, 2014. Neither Party will intentionally negotiate with a Third Party an exclusive license that excludes sublicense rights to the other Party, in the event such Third Party rights are necessary, as determined by the negotiating Party, to Develop and Commercialize Allogene Licensed Products and Cellectis Products in connection with this Agreement in the Field.
Third Party Patent Rights If either Party desires to bring an opposition, action for declaratory judgment, nullity action, interference, declaration for non-infringement, reexamination or other attack upon the validity, title or enforceability of a Patent Right owned or controlled by a Third Party and having one or more claims that Cover the Compound or Product, or the use, sale, offer for sale or importation of the Compound or Product (except insofar as such action is a counterclaim to or defense of, or accompanies a defense of, a Third Party’s claim or assertion of infringement under Section 7.6, in which case the provisions of Section 7.6 shall govern), such Party shall so notify the other Party and the Parties shall promptly confer to determine whether to bring such action or the manner in which to settle such action. Provention shall have the exclusive right, but not the obligation, to bring, at its own expense and in its sole control, such action in the Territory. If Provention does not bring such an action in the Territory, within ninety (90) days of notification thereof pursuant to this Section 7.7(a) (or earlier, if required by the nature of the proceeding), MacroGenics shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, at MacroGenics’ own expense, such action. The Party not bringing an action under this Section 7.7(a) shall be entitled to separate representation in such proceeding by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, and shall cooperate fully with the Party bringing such action. Any awards or amounts received in bringing any such action shall be first allocated to reimburse the initiating Party’s expenses in such action, and any remaining amounts shall be allocated between the Parties as provided in Section 7.5(e).
Intellectual Property Rights Infringement HP will defend and/or settle any claims against Customer that allege that an HP-branded product or service as supplied under this Agreement infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. HP will rely on Customer’s prompt notification of the claim and cooperation with our defense. HP may modify the product or service so as to be non-infringing and materially equivalent, or we may procure a license. If these options are not available, we will refund to Customer the amount paid for the affected product in the first year or the depreciated value thereafter or, for support services, the balance of any pre-paid amount or, for professional services, the amount paid. HP is not responsible for claims resulting from any unauthorized use of the products or services.
