  • 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.

  • Joint Patents With respect to any potentially patentable Joint Invention, the Parties shall meet and agree upon which Party shall prosecute and maintain Patent applications covering such Joint Invention (any such Patent application and any Patents issuing therefrom, a “Joint Patent”) in particular countries and jurisdictions throughout the world. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, Xxxxxx will prosecute and maintain any Joint Patents in the Licensed Territory, and Onconova will prosecute and maintain the Joint Patents outside the Licensed Territory, subject to the Parties coordinating their efforts as appropriate to make such prosecution activities as efficient, convenient, and harmonious as possible. The Parties ** all expenses of filing, prosecuting and maintaining such Joint Patents. The Party that prosecutes a Joint Patent (the “Prosecuting Party”) shall provide the other Party the opportunity to review and comment on any and all such prosecution efforts regarding the applicable Joint Patent in the particular jurisdictions, and such other Party shall provide the Prosecuting Party reasonable assistance in such efforts; provided that the Prosecuting Party shall have final control over such prosecution efforts after reasonably considering the other Party’s comments, if any. The Prosecuting Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of all material communications from any Patent authority in the applicable jurisdictions regarding the Joint Patent being prosecuted by such Party, and shall provide drafts of any material filings or responses to be made to such patent authorities a reasonable amount of time in advance of submitting such filings or responses. In particular, each Party agrees to provide the other Party with all information necessary or desirable to enable the other Party to comply with any duty of candor and/or duty of disclosure requirements of any Patent authority. Except to the extent a Party is restricted by the licenses granted by such Party to the other Party under the terms of this Agreement, and/or the other covenants contained in this Agreement, each Party shall be entitled to practice, and grant licenses to Third Parties and Affiliates of such Third Parties to practice, the Joint Patents and all Joint Inventions without restriction or an obligation to account to the other Party, and the other Party shall consent and hereby consents, without additional consideration, to any and all such licenses.

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.
