10.3 Indemnification. GreenLight will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bayer, including its Affiliates, and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives from and against any damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other costs) arising from fines, civil penalties, personal injury to, or damage to the property of Third Parties (including for purposes of this Section 10.3 the employees of the Parties) to the extent such damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses are directly caused by GreenLight’s (a) recklessness, willful misconduct, violation of law, or breach of any representations or warranties in this Agreement, or (b) activities conducted using, or resulting from, or covered by the know-how and patents assigned or licensed under this Agreement.

10.3.1 Notice; Defense. In the event that Bayer receives notice of any Third Party claim, action or proceeding for which Bayer (the “Indemnitee”) claims indemnity hereunder, the Indemnitee will promptly notify GreenLight (the “Indemnitor”) of such matter.

The Indemnitee may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such claim or litigation provided that the Indemnitor will direct and control the defense of such claim or litigation.

11.

TERM AND TERMINATION.

11.1 Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue until the expiration of the last to expire of all patents and patent applications owned or Controlled by a Party that are licensed hereunder to the other Party unless terminated early pursuant to the remaining subsections of Section 11 or any other relevant provisions set forth in this Agreement (the “Term”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Term will survive the non-renewal or termination of any particular license hereunder, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, the Parties agree that to the extent any of the licenses granted under this Agreement are to an invention, data, know-how, and/or work of authorship that is Confidential Information at the end of the Term of this Agreement (unless terminated early pursuant to the remaining subsections of Section 11 or any other relevant provisions set forth in this Agreement), said licenses will continue, without royalty or any other obligations under this Agreement, save the confidentiality provisions under Section 8, until such time as the same are no longer are subject to the confidentiality provisions due to the passage of time pursuant to Section 8.1.

Additionally, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither expiration or termination of this Agreement by Bayer releases GreenLight from its obligations to pay the EPA Registration Milestone Fee and the First Sale Milestone Fee under Sections 5.2 and 5.3, respectively.

11.2 Termination “For Cause”. Either Party may, upon written notice to the other Party, terminate this Agreement if the other Party has materially breached this Agreement and failed to cure such material breach within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice thereof from the Party seeking to terminate. A termination under this Section 11.2 will be effective only if the Party seeking to terminate provides notice of breach, such breach is not cured within sixty (60) days, and such Party then provides written notice of termination upon expiration of such cure period.

11.3 Termination of Licenses for Patent Challenge. In the event that GreenLight directly or indirectly:

(a) issues a press release, public announcement, news release alleging invalidity or unenforceability of any claim of the Insect Control Patents or Delivery Patents; or

(b) asserts a claim or counterclaim in the courts seeking to invalidate or render unenforceable any claim of the Insect Control Patents or Delivery Patents; or

(c) assists another Third Party with either or both (a) or (b); wherein each of (a), (b), or (c) is a “Challenge Event” and each of GreenLight and its Affiliates is a “Challenger”, then Challenger shall provide reasonable written notice but in no event less than sixty (60) days written notice to Bayer prior to initiating such a Challenge Event, along with a copy of any prior art, if known, that forms the basis for the Challenge Event.

Upon the occurrence of a Challenge Event, Bayer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to immediately terminate GreenLight’s licenses to the Insect Control Patents and the Delivery Patents.

To be clear, a dispute involving determinations of claim scope or construction does not constitute challenging or denying the validity or enforceability of any of the Insect Control Patents or the Delivery Patents is not a Challenge Event unless a Challenger actually contests the validity, enforceability, and/or requests reexamination of or opposes a patent or contests the allowance or issuance of a patent application licensed. Also, challenging or denying the validity or enforceability of any of the Insect Control Patents or Delivery Patents does not include provoking or participating in an interference proceeding.

11.3.1 Forum of a Challenge Event. GreenLight agrees on behalf of itself and every other Challenger that it/they shall bring or assist in bringing a Challenge Event seeking to invalidate or render unenforceable any claim of the U.S. Insect Control Patents and the Delivery Patents only in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, and not to contest personal jurisdiction in that forum. If this foregoing forum selection clause is determined by the court to not prohibit a Challenger from bringing or assisting in bringing a Challenge Event before an applicable governmental agency (e.g., the United States Patent Trial and Appeal Board), then category (b) of the Challenge Event also includes asserting invalidity or unenforceability of any claim of the U.S. Insect Control Patents and the Delivery Patents before an applicable governmental agency.

11.3.2 Compensation. Moreover, should the outcome of any such action or proceeding be unsuccessful, the Challenger(s) shall pay Bayer’s costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in such action. An action or proceeding shall be deemed “unsuccessful” for purposes of this Section 11.3 if:

(i) the proceeding or lawsuit is terminated for any reason prior to a settlement or judgment from which no appeal can be or is taken;

(ii) one or more of the claims within the patents challenged by said proceeding or lawsuit remain valid and enforceable after any such settlement or judgment is in effect; or

(iii) if one or more Challengers would still require a license to any of the Insect Control Patents or Delivery Patents to make, have made, offer sale, sell, or use any of its products after any such settlement or judgment is in effect.

11.4 Effects of Agreement Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by Bayer, all licenses granted to GreenLight will terminate, and GreenLight will promptly: (a) cease any all uses of Bee Health Know-how, and Insect Control Know-how (some or all of which may be Bayer Confidential Information and subject certain provisions of this Agreement, including Section 11.6); and (b) cease all activities that would be an infringement of a patent licensed hereunder.

11.5 Accrued Obligations. Termination of this Agreement for any reason will not release any Party from any obligations that, at the time of such termination, has already accrued to the other Party or any obligations that, by their nature, will continue, including those set forth in this Section 11 and Sections 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 12.

11.6 Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. Upon any termination of this Agreement, each Party will return to the other Party or destroy all Confidential Information of the other Party then in its possession or control, except to the extent such Confidential Information of the other Party is reasonably necessary to such Party’s exercise of its surviving rights under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the receiving Party shall not be obligated to delete electronic copies of Confidential Information stored in archival back-ups created in the ordinary course of business so long as the archival back-ups are maintained in confidence and are not readily accessible to users. Each Party will continue to be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any and all Confidential Information of the other Party that is not returned to the other Party or destroyed.
