PATENT AND KNOW HOW LICENSE GRANTS
2.01 Specific license grants from Licensor to Licensee are set forth in Appendix A—H. The licenses in this Agreement include the right to sublicense to Affiliates. However, unless otherwise specifically provided in the license grants of Appendix A—H, the licenses in this Agreement do not include the right to sub-license to any other third party. The license grants are limited to the Patents and Know How specifically enumerated in each Appendix and do not include any rights to Know How or Patents that are not listed or improvements to Patents or Know How made by either party after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Licensor chooses in their sole discretion to pursue patent protection for an invention that is the subject to a license by being included as Know How, Licensee will have rights to any Patent that matures from such an invention commensurate with the rights Licensor has to the Patents in the subject license.
2.02 Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Licensor to maintain any or all licensed Patents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Licensor decides to allow a Patent to lapse or become abandoned, Licensor shall take reasonable efforts to provide notice of such decision to Licensee at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of lapse or abandonment of the Patent. Licensee then has up to ten (10) business days following such notification to inform Licensor as to whether or not it will take action to prevent the lapse or abandonment of the Patent and have ownership of the Patent transferred to Licensee. A lack of timely response by the Licensee shall be deemed to indicate that the Licensee has no interest in the Patent that is slated to lapse or be abandoned. Any action taken by Licensee to prevent the lapse or abandonment of a Patent and have ownership transferred to Licensee shall be at Licensee’s expense.
2.03 Licensor acknowledges that the grant of an exclusive license to any trade secrets by this Agreement does not limit the ability of the Licensee or a third party to independently develop the subject matter of any such licensed trade secret, or in the event of such independent development, create a cause of action for the Licensor.
2.04 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Halyard and its Affiliates may continue selling or otherwise transferring Medical Products to Existing Health Care Customers with the benefit of the license(s) set forth in this Agreement.
