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 TAP 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.

It is presumed that CytomX will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint Program Technology or Joint Unconjugated Probody Platform Improvements, and that ImmunoGen will control filing, prosecution and maintenance of Joint Patent Rights claiming Joint TAP Platform Improvements or Joint Conjugation 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.
Licensed Patent Rights The term “Licensed Patent Rights” shall mean rights arising out of or resulting from:
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).
Joint Patents Neither Party shall have any obligation to file or prosecute any Joint Patent. To the extent a Party wishes to prosecute a Joint Patent, the Parties will mutually agree upon which Party will have the first right to prosecute such Joint Patent, based on the contribution of each Party to such invention and each Party’s potential interest in products based upon such invention. If the Party having such first right does not wish to prosecute such Joint Patent, it shall inform the other Party promptly, but in any event no later than [***] after the Parties have agreed upon which Party had the first right to prosecute such Joint Patent. If the Party having such first right does not wish to prosecute such Joint Patent, the other Party may, upon written notice to such Party, prosecute such Joint Patent. The Party that prosecutes a Joint Patent pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) (the “prosecuting Party”) will solely bear its own internal costs for such prosecution and will solely bear the external costs for such prosecution (e.g., outside counsel, filing fees, etc.). Licensee will have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute infringement of any Joint Patents that is related to the Exclusively Licensed Know-How or a product competitive, or potentially competitive, with a Licensed Product; and Licensor will have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute infringement of any Joint Patents in all other cases. The Parties shall first confer and mutually agree regarding any such prosecution of infringement; provided, however, that Licensee shall have the right, without the consent of Licensor, to assert a Joint Patent against a Third Party in a defense of or counterclaim to any claim or assertion of infringement of a Patent or misappropriation of Know-How Controlled by such Third Party.

Combination Products If a LICENSED PRODUCT is sold to any third party in combination with other products, devices, components or materials that are capable of being sold separately and are not subject to royalties hereunder (“OTHER PRODUCTS,” with the combination of products being referred to as “COMBINATION PRODUCTS” and the Other Product and Licensed Product in such Combination Product being referred to as the “COMPONENTS”), the NET SALES of such LICENSED PRODUCT included in such COMBINATION PRODUCT shall be calculated by multiplying the NET SALES of the COMBINATION PRODUCT by the fraction A/(A+B), where A is the average NET SALES price of such LICENSED PRODUCT in the relevant country, as sold separately, and B is the total average NET SALES price of all OTHER PRODUCTS in the COMBINATION PRODUCT in the relevant country, as sold separately. If, in any country, any COMPONENT is not sold separately, NET SALES for royalty determination shall be determined by the formula [C / (C+D)], where C is the aggregate average fully absorbed cost of the Licensed Product components during the prior Royalty Period and D is the aggregate average fully absorbed cost of the other essential functional components during the prior Royalty Period, with such costs being determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. To the extent that any SUBLICENSE INCOME relates to a COMBINATION PRODUCT or is otherwise calculated based on the value of one or more licenses or intellectual property rights held by the COMPANY, an AFFILIATE or SUBLICENSEE, COMPANY shall determine in good faith and report to THE PARTIES the share of such payments reasonably attributable to COMPANY’s or such AFFILIATE’s sublicense of the rights granted hereunder, based upon their relative importance and proprietary protection, which portion shall be the SUBLICENSE INCOME. THE PARTIES shall have the right to dispute such sharing determination in accordance with the dispute provisions of the AGREEMENT.
Patent Costs Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the licenses granted hereunder are in partial consideration for Licensee’s assumption of patent costs and expenses as described herein. Licensee agrees to pay and shall pay for all expenses referenced in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 hereof. In addition, Licensee agrees to reimburse and shall reimburse TSRI for all patent costs and expenses previously paid or associated with Licensed Patent Rights incurred by TSRI up to the Effective Date, less any such patent costs and expenses previously reimbursed by Licensee under the Option Agreement. Licensee agrees to pay and shall pay all such past and future patent expenses associated with the work on the Licensed Patent Rights performed by TSRI’s Office of Patent Counsel and/or its independent counsel within thirty (30) days after Licensee receives an itemized invoice therefor. Failure of Licensee to pay patent costs and expenses as set forth in this Section 8.3 shall immediately relieve TSRI from its obligation to incur any further patent costs and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, should Licensee not pay any patent costs and expenses due to TSRI or independent counsel within thirty (30) days after Licensee’s receipt of any itemized invoice therefor, TSRI shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to cease all patent prosecution and allow Licensed Patent Rights to go abandoned. Such action by TSRI shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. Payment can be made directly to independent counsel, or to TSRI. Licensee may elect with a minimum of ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to TSRI, to discontinue payment for the filing, prosecution and/or maintenance of any patent application and/or patent within Licensed Patent Rights. Licensee shall remain liable for all patent prosecution and maintenance costs incurred prior to the date of notice of election and for a ninety (90) day period following the date of such notice. Any such patent application or patent so elected shall immediately be excluded from the definition of Licensed Patent Rights and from the scope of the licenses granted under this Agreement, and all rights relating thereto shall revert to TSRI and may be freely licensed by TSRI.
