Filing, Prosecution and Maintenance of Patents RENOVIS agrees to file, prosecute and maintain in the Territory, upon appropriate consultation with MERCK, the RENOVIS Patent Rights licensed to MERCK under this Agreement; provided, however, with respect to Joint Information and Inventions that are not Improvements to RENOVIS Patent Rights or RENOVIS Technology, MERCK shall have the first right to file patent applications for such Joint Information and Inventions. With respect to RENOVIS Information and Inventions, RENOVIS may elect not to file and if so MERCK shall have the right to file patent applications. In such event, RENOVIS shall execute such documents and perform such acts at RENOVIS’ expense as may be reasonably necessary to effect an assignment of such Patent Rights to MERCK in a timely manner to allow MERCK to continue such prosecution or maintenance. In each case, the filing Party shall give the non-filing Party an opportunity to review the text of the application before filing, shall consult with the non-filing Party with respect thereto, and shall supply the non-filing Party with a copy of the application as filed, together with notice of its filing date and serial number. RENOVIS shall keep MERCK advised of the status of the actual and prospective patent filings and upon the request of MERCK, provide advance copies of any papers related to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patent filings. RENOVIS shall promptly give notice to MERCK of the grant, lapse, revocation, surrender, invalidation or abandonment of any Patent Rights licensed to MERCK for which RENOVIS is responsible for the filing, prosecution and maintenance. With respect to all filings hereunder, the filing Party shall be responsible for payment of all costs and expenses related to such filings.
