Sublicense SONY shall be permitted to sublicense the rights ---------- granted in Section
2.1 only to:
(a) wholly-owned subsidiaries of SONY; provided that SONY shall promptly notify LEXAR in writing of sublicenses granted to subsidiaries and SONY shall acknowledge responsibility for such subsidiary's compliance with the terms of this Lexar Technology License Agreement; and
(b) any parties for the manufacture, use, offer for sale, import and sale of Host Devices and any components of Host Devices, provided that such third parties shall only be sublicensed under LEXAR Intellectual Property Rights for that portion of a Host Device or of any component of a Host Device that communicates directly with a Licensed Memory Stick. SONY's sublicense rights under this Section 2.2(b) shall be contingent upon SONY entering into a written agreement with each sublicensee in the form of Exhibit C. SONY will provide LEXAR with a copy of each such --------- sublicense agreement immediately after execution thereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as permitting SONY to reveal LEXAR Confidential Information, as such term is defined in Section 6, to sublicensees under this Section 2.2(b). In the event that SONY determines that the Memory Stick Specification contains LEXAR Confidential Information, LEXAR and SONY agree to negotiate in good faith additional specific provisions to the form sublicensee agreement to sufficiently protect LEXAR's Confidential Information. LEXAR and SONY acknowledge that in the course of these negotiations, the parties' mutual interest in making the Host Device manufacturing license available as broadly as possible should be weighed against the importance of protecting LEXAR's Confidential Information. Sublicensees under this Section 2.2 shall not have the right to sublicense the rights granted under this agreement. * Material has been omitted and filed separately with the Commission.
Sublicensing Rights (a) The license(s) granted to Intellia in Section 2.1 and to Caribou in Section 2.2 may be sublicensed, in full or in part, by Intellia and Caribou, respectively, (each, the “Sublicensing Party”) by a written agreement to its Affiliates and Third Parties (with the further right to sublicense [***] provided that the following shall likewise apply with respect to sublicenses granted by a Sublicensee), provided, that:
(i) the Sublicensing Party will provide to the other Party a copy of any sublicense agreement with a Sublicensee within [***] days of execution thereof, which sublicense agreement may be redacted as necessary to protect commercially sensitive information to the extent such information is not reasonably necessary to determine compliance with this Agreement or to determine the rights granted under any of the Caribou IP or Intellia IP, as applicable (together with an accurate English translation of such sublicense, if applicable) provided that if such agreement is with a Related Party the Sublicensing Party shall provide an unredacted copy thereof;
(ii) the Sublicensing Party will be responsible for any and all obligations of such Sublicensee as if such Sublicensee were “Intellia” or “Caribou”, as applicable, hereunder;
(iii) any such Sublicensee will agree in writing to be bound by identical obligations as the Sublicensing Party hereunder with respect to the activities of such Sublicensee hereunder;
(iv) to the extent that the Sublicensing Party or any Sublicensee grants a sublicense under any intellectual property subject to a Caribou In-License or Intellia Included In-License, as applicable, such sublicense (and such further sublicensee) will be subject to the terms of such Caribou In-License or Intellia Included In-License, including such sublicensee’s compliance with the Required In-License Provisions [***].
Sublicense Grant Licensee will be entitled to grant Sublicenses to third parties under the license granted pursuant to Section 2.1 subject to the terms of this Section 2.3. Any such Sublicense shall be on terms and conditions in compliance with and not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. The grant of a Sublicense shall not in any way diminish or alter Licensee’s obligations under this Agreement.
Licensee “Licensee” means the individual or company that has entered into an Agreement with the Embassy. “Offer” means a response to a solicitation that, if accepted, would bind the offeror to perform the resultant Agreement.
By Licensee Licensee shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Licensor, its Affiliates, sublicensees, the licensors under the Existing Licenses, and their respective shareholders, members, partners, officers, trustees, faculty, students, contractors, agents, and employees (individually, a “Licensor Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Licensor Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Third Party liability, loss, damage, action, claim, fee, cost, or expense (including attorneys’ fees) (individually, a “Third Party Liability” and, collectively, the “Third Party Liabilities”) suffered or incurred by the Licensor Indemnified Parties from claims of such Third Parties that result from or arise out of: […***…]; provided, however, that Licensee shall not be liable for claims based on any breach by Licensor of the representations, warranties, or obligations of this Agreement or the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of any of the Licensor Indemnified Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee must defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Licensor Indemnified Parties from and against any Third Party Liabilities resulting from:
(a) any […***…] or other claim of any kind related to the […***…] by a Third Party of a […***…] by Licensee, its Affiliates, any Sublicensees, their respective assignees, or vendors;
(b) any claim by a Third Party that the […***…]; and
(c) […***…] conducted by or on behalf of Licensee, its Affiliates, any Sublicensees, their respective assignees, or vendors relating to the Licensed Technology or Licensed Products, including any claim by or on behalf of a […***…].
Sublicensing Licensee has the right to grant Sublicense Agreements under the Licensed Subject Matter consistent with the terms of the Agreement, subject to the following:
(a) A Sublicense Agreement shall not exceed the scope and rights granted to Licensee hereunder. Sublicensee must agree in writing to be bound by the applicable terms and conditions of the Agreement and shall indicate that Licensor is a third party beneficiary of the Sublicense Agreement. In the event of termination of this Agreement, continued sublicense rights shall be governed by Section 7.5(a) (Effect of Termination). Licensee has no right to grant a Sublicensee the right to grant further sub-Sublicense Agreements.
(b) Licensee shall deliver to Licensor a true, complete, and correct copy of each Sublicense Agreement granted by Licensee, Affiliate or Sublicensee, and any modification or termination thereof, within thirty (30) days following the applicable execution, modification, or termination of such Sublicense Agreement. All Sublicense Agreements will be in English.
(c) Notwithstanding any such Sublicense Agreement, Licensee will remain primarily liable to Licensor for all of the Licensee’s duties and obligations contained in the Agreement, including without limitation the payment of running royalties due under Section 3.2 whether or not paid to Licensee by a Sublicensee. Any act or omission of a Sublicensee that would be a breach of the Agreement if performed by Licensee will be deemed to be a breach by Licensee. Each Sublicense Agreement will contain a right of termination by Licensee in the event that the Sublicensee breaches the payment or reporting obligations affecting Licensor or any other terms and conditions of the Sublicense Agreement that would constitute a breach of the Agreement if such acts were performed by Licensee.
Sublicensees Licensee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to sublicense those rights granted to it under Section 2.1 only as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 2.5 and this Section 2.3.2, to (a) any Person (other than a Specified Person) with the prior written consent of Lxxxx, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that Licensee may contract in the ordinary course of business with any Third Party contract research organization (“CRO”) or contract development and manufacturing organization (“CMO”) to handle certain clinical Development or Manufacturing activities, in Licensee’s reasonable discretion, without requiring Lilly’s consent; provided further that such CRO or CMO are working on Licensee’s behalf, (b) any of its Affiliates (only for so long as they remain Affiliates), provided that Licensee provides prior written notice (at least 20 Business Days in advance) to Lilly of any sublicenses to be granted to any Affiliate or its request for approval of any sublicense to be granted to any other Person, which shall include in each case a description of the rights to be granted and the purpose therefor, the identity of the proposed Sublicensee and the countries involved, or (c) a Specified Person. Each Affiliate or other Person to which any such sublicense is granted is referred to herein as a “Sublicensee.” Licensee shall remain responsible for the performance by each of its Sublicensees and shall cause each of its Sublicensees to comply with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, and Licensee shall be liable for the acts or omissions of its Sublicensees under or in connection with this Agreement (as if such acts or omission were those of Licensee). Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee shall: (x) ensure that each of its Sublicensees accepts in writing all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the non-compete, reporting, audit, inspection and confidentiality provisions hereunder; (y) under the agreements between Licensee and each of its Sublicensees, include a provision pursuant to which either (a) Lilly is named as a third-party beneficiary or (b) a mechanism (for example, a power of attorney) is implemented for Lxxxx to enforce all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement against the Sublicensee in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lilly, provided that, in each case, Lxxxx shall not proceed against any Sublicensee unless Lxxxx has first provided Licensee with written notice of the Sublicensee’s breach and Licensee has not, within 90 days after receipt of such notice, caused the Sublicensee to cease the breaching activity or otherwise cure the breach, in each case, to the reasonable satisfaction of Lxxxx; and (z) terminate all relevant agreements with any such Sublicensee in the case of any breach of such terms and conditions by such Sublicensee. A Sublicensee shall have the right to grant further sublicenses, subject to complying with the terms of this Section 2.3.2 with respect to further Sublicensees. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Licensee will remain directly responsible for all amounts owed to Lilly under this Agreement, and (ii) each Sublicensee is subject to the negative and restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 2.2.1 and 2.4, respectively. Licensee hereby expressly waives any requirement that Lxxxx exhaust any right, power or remedy, or proceed against a subcontractor, for any obligation or performance hereunder prior to proceeding directly against Licensee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (A) all sublicenses granted hereunder shall automatically terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason and (B) if the Parties enter into an agreement pursuant to Section 2.5 with respect to the Product, then as of the effective date of such agreement all sublicenses granted with respect to the Product shall automatically terminate, except as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties in writing (and in no event shall any negotiations for any such agreement pursuant to Section 2.5 be conditioned on or otherwise affected by whether Lxxxx agrees to allow any such sublicenses to continue).
Sublicense Fees Licensee will pay Sublicense Fees indicated in Section 3.1(e) of the Patent & Technology License Agreement on or before the Quarterly Payment Deadline for the Contract Quarter.
Sublicense Agreements Sublicenses under this Section 2.3 shall be granted only pursuant to written agreements, which shall be subject to and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Such Sublicense agreements shall contain, among other things, provisions to the following effect:
2.3.2.1 all provisions necessary to ensure Licensee’s ability to comply with Licensee’s obligation under or not violate the provisions of Sections 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 5.1, 5.3, 5.4, 8.1 and 11.1;
2.3.2.2 a section substantially the same as Article 9 (Indemnification), which also shall state that the Indemnitees (as defined in Section 9.1) are intended third party beneficiaries of such Sublicense agreement for the purpose of enforcing such indemnification;
2.3.2.3 in the event of termination of the license set forth in Section 2.1.1 above (in whole or in part (e.g., termination of the license as to a Licensed Product or in a particular country)), any existing Sublicense shall terminate to the extent of such terminated license; provided, however, that, for each Sublicensee, upon termination of the license, if the Sublicensee is not then in breach of the Sublicense agreement such that Licensee would have the right to terminate such Sublicense agreement, such Sublicensee shall have the right to obtain a license from Harvard on the same terms and conditions as set forth herein, which shall not impose any representations, warranties, obligations or liabilities on Harvard that are not included in this Agreement, provided that (a) the scope of the license granted directly by Harvard to such Sublicensee shall be coextensive with the scope of the license granted by Licensee to such Sublicensee, (b) if the Sublicense granted to such Sublicensee was non-exclusive, such Sublicensee shall not have the right to participate in the prosecution or enforcement of the Patent Rights under the license granted to it directly by Harvard and (c) if there are more than one Sublicensee, each Sublicensee that is granted a direct license shall be responsible for a pro rata share of the reimbursement due under Section 6.2.3 of this Agreement (based on the number of direct licenses under the Patent Rights in effect on the date of reimbursement);
2.3.2.4 the Sublicensee shall only be entitled to sublicense its rights under such Sublicense agreement on the terms set forth in this Section 2.3; and
2.3.2.5 the Sublicensee shall not be entitled to assign the Sublicense agreement without the prior written consent of Harvard, except that Sublicensee may assign the Sublicense agreement to a successor in connection with the merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or that portion of its business to which the Sublicense agreement relates; provided, however, that any permitted assignee agrees in writing in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Harvard to be bound by the terms of such Sublicense agreement.
By Licensor Licensor will indemnify and hold harmless Licensee and its and members, managers, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates (collectively, the "Licensee Indemnified Parties"), on an After Tax Basis, from and against all claims, losses, damages (including loss of profits and consequential damages awarded to unrelated third parties, if any, but excluding loss of profits and consequential damages otherwise suffered by the Licensee Indemnified Parties), expenses, judgements, costs and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) (collectively, "Losses") incurred by the Licensee Indemnified Parties arising from Licensor's breach of any obligation, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing any claims for indemnification that any Licensee Indemnified Parties may have pursuant to this Section 7.2(a) will exclude claims based on information known by Lifford (or its Affiliates, including Bloomfield) as of the Funding Date whether or not such information formed the basis of the issues raised by Bloomfield during Due Diligence (as defined in the Operating Agreement) and whether or not asserted prior to the Walk Away Notice (as defined in the Operating Agreement) or thereafter. In the event of a dispute regarding a claim for indemnification, the Licensee Indemnified Party will have the burden of proof in establishing the validity and amount of the claim, and Licensor will have the burden of proof in establishing any defense to such claim, including but not limited to, a defense asserted by Licensor that Lifford (or its Affiliates) had knowledge of the requisite facts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensor will not be obligated to provide indemnification where there is any admission of guilt by any Licensee Indemnified Party charged with violation of the law as to the content of any Company Program.
