8.1 Notice. Company and Penn will notify each other promptly of any infringement of the Patent Rights that may come to their attention. Company and Penn will consult each other in a timely manner concerning any appropriate response to the infringement.

8.2 Prosecution of Infringement. Company may prosecute any infringement of the Patent Rights at Company’s expense, including defending against any counterclaims or cross claims brought by any party against Company or Penn regarding the Patent Rights and defending against any claim that the Patent or Patent Rights are invalid in the course of any infringement action or in a declaratory judgment action. Penn reserves the right to intervene voluntarily and join Company in any such infringement litigation. If Penn chooses not to intervene voluntarily, but Penn is a necessary party to the action brought by Company, then Company may join Penn in the infringement litigation provided that Penn shall have the right to retain its own counsel, reasonably acceptable to Company, and Company will be responsible for **** of Penn’s reasonable litigation expenditures including any attorney’s fees, expenses, official fees and other charges incurred by Penn, even if there are no financial recoveries from the infringement action. Company will reimburse Penn within **** after receiving each invoice from Penn. If Company decides not to prosecute any infringement of the Patent Rights, then Penn may elect to prosecute such infringement independently of Company in Penn’s sole discretion, and at Penn’s expense.

8.3 Cooperation. In any litigation under this Article 8, either party, at the request and sole expense of the other party, will cooperate to the fullest extent reasonably possible. This Section 8.3 will not be construed to require either party to undertake any activities, including legal discovery, at the request of any third party, except as may be required by lawful process of a court of competent jurisdiction. If, however, either party is required to undertake any activity, including legal discovery, as a right of lawful process of a court of competent jurisdiction, then Company will pay all expenses incurred by Company and by Penn.

Company controls any litigation or potential litigation involving the prosecution of infringement claims regarding the Patent Rights, including the selection of counsel, all with input from Penn. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Penn shall have the right to approve all decisions that would have a materially adverse affect on the validity, scope of patent claims, or enforceability of the Patent Rights. Company must not settle or compromise any such litigation in a manner that imposes any obligations or restrictions on Penn or grants any rights to the Patent Rights, other than any permitted sublicenses, without Penn’s prior written permission.

Penn shall have the right to control all litigation regarding the Patent Rights which is prosecuted by Penn independent of Company.
