Technology Patents. 6.2.3.1 As between Geron and AngioChem, AngioChem shall have the first right to assert the Technology Patents, at its own sole cost and expense, using counsel of its choice, to ▇▇▇▇▇ infringement within the Field, and to control the defense of any declaratory judgment action relating to the Technology Patents. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request by Geron for AngioChem to assert the Technology Patents, AngioChem shall inform Geron in writing if it elects to exercise its first right to assert the Technology Patents hereunder. If AngioChem elects to exercise its first right, AngioChem shall keep Geron informed of developments in any such action or proceeding, including consultation on any settlement, the status of any settlement negotiations and the terms of any offer related thereto. Geron shall cooperate fully in such action, including, without limitation, being named as a party plaintiff as necessary, and will provide any information or assistance that AngioChem may reasonably request. In any such action, neither Geron nor AngioChem shall knowingly take any position adverse to the issuance or maintenance of any Product Patent. Any recovery from actions brought by AngioChem hereunder shall (a) first be applied to AngioChem’s costs and expenses in bringing the action, and (b) then to Geron’s costs and expenses in connection with such action, and (c) any surplus shall then be shared equally by AngioChem and Geron. 6.2.3.2 If AngioChem notifies Geron in writing that it declines to exercise its first right to assert the Technology Patents to ▇▇▇▇▇ infringement within the Field, or fails to notify Geron of its intent to exercise its first right within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request by Geron to do so, Geron shall be entitled to bring such action if the alleged infringement involves the development or marketing of a product which is being developed or marketed for the treatment of a cancer type for which Geron is developing or marketing a Licensed Product, or which could reasonably be used off-label for such cancer type.

Technology Patents. AngioChem shall be and remain responsible for filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Technology Patents and all costs associated therewith and shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to maintain its portfolio of Technology Patents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if AngioChem elects not to prosecute or maintain a Technology Patent that has been filed, it will promptly inform Geron in writing, and Geron will have the right, but not the obligation, to require AngioChem to continue to prosecute or maintain such Technology Patent, in any country or countries, at Geron’s sole cost and expense. In that case, at Geron’s request and expense, AngioChem shall prosecute and maintain such Technology Patents, using counsel of AngioChem’s choice, and giving full and fair consideration, in good faith, to input from Geron as to prosecution and maintenance activities, in any and all countries requested by Geron.

  • 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.

  • Licensed Patent Rights The Licensee shall indemnify and hold the IC, its employees, students, fellows, agents, and consultants harmless from and against all liability, demands, damages, expenses, and losses, including but not limited to death, personal injury, illness, or property damage in connection with or arising out of:

  • 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 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.
