shall discuss in good faith any adjustments to the budget.
5. PUBLICITY, PUBLICATIONS AND CONFIDENTIALITY
-------------------------------------------
5.1 Except as required by law or regulation, no press release or any other
written statements intended for use in the public media that refer to the
Research Program shall be made by University. University shall have the right
to acknowledge Sponsor's support of the investigations under this Agreement in
scientific or academic publications or presentations, with Sponsor's prior
written approval. In any such statements, the parties shall describe the scope
and nature of their participation accurately and appropriately, shall make no
misleading or inflated representations concerning the technology or any
compounds derived therefrom, and shall not compromise any duty of
confidentiality concerning the Research Program or the Licensed Technology.
5.2 The parties agree that it is desirable to avoid loss of commercially
valuable trade secrets, know-how and patent rights arising from performance of
this Agreement but not yet protected by an issued patent (hereinafter,
'Commercial Information') as a result of premature public disclosure of such
information. University and Principal Investigator agree that there will be no
publication nor public disclosure related to research performed in the course of
this Agreement that would cause the loss of Commercial Information. Therefore,
at least sixty (60) days prior to planned submission for publication,
University, through the Principal Investigator, will submit to Sponsor for
review and comment, all manuscripts and other materials that University,
Principal Investigator, and any employees and students of University authorized
to perform research under this Agreement may wish to publish or publicly
disclose, including but not limited to professional articles and papers, theses,
and dissertations. Submissions shall be made in the form proposed for
publication. Sponsor shall notify University within sixty (60) days after
receipt of such materials whether Sponsor in good faith believes that the
proposed publication would disclose Commercial Information, and whether Sponsor
desires to file patent applications on any inventions referred to in such
materials. Where University and Principal
3.
Investigator, on one hand, and Sponsor, on the other, disagree as to whether
publication would disclose Commercial Information, University, Principal
Investigator, and Sponsor shall discuss the matter in good faith in a diligent
effort to resolve the matter to the parties' mutual satisfaction. No such
publication shall occur without Sponsor's prior written consent. Subject to the
foregoing provisions and Section 5.3 below University and Principal Investigator
shall have the right to publish or otherwise publicly disclose information
derived from research performed in the course of this Agreement.
5.3 In connection with work performed under this Agreement, University and
Principal Investigator, and employees and students authorized to perform
research under this Agreement, will have access to Confidential Information
pertaining to the Licensed Technology and/or the Research Program, including but
not limited to Commercial Information and proprietary information that may be
provided by Sponsor. All Confidential Information shall be protected in
accordance with Section 17 of the License Agreement, the terms of which
provision are incorporated by reference herein.
6. RIGHTS IN THE LICENSED TECHNOLOGY
---------------------------------
As partial consideration for the payments made by Sponsor hereunder, all
Licensed Technology, including without limitation any Patent Rights arising
during the Term of this Agreement and within two years thereafter in accordance
with section 16(c) of the License Agreement, shall be treated in accordance with
the terms of the License Agreement.
7. INDEMNITY
---------
Each party shall have the relative rights and duties of indemnity with
respect to the Research Program that are set forth in Section 19 of the License
Agreement, and the terms Sponsor and University for purposes of this provision
shall be deemed to include the trustees, directors, officers, agents, employees,
and contractors of the respective parties, as well as the Principal
Investigator, provided that the duty of indemnity shall devolve solely upon the
Sponsor and University as entities (and not upon such individuals).
8. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
----------------------
For purposes of this Agreement and all services to be provided hereunder,
each party shall be an independent contractor and not an agent, employee,
partner, or joint venture of the other party. Neither party shall have
authority to make any representation or commitment or take any action on behalf
of or that shall be binding on the other party, except as may be expressly
authorized in writing.
9. TERM AND TERMINATION
--------------------
9.1 This Agreement may be terminated as provided below:
(a) by the agreement of both parties;
4.
(b) at the election of the non-defaulting party, upon the expiration
of any applicable cure period, in the event that either party shall be in breach
of its material obligations under this Agreement and shall fail to remedy such
breach within ninety (90) days after receipt of written notice specifying such
breach; unless such Default occurs by reason of failure to make any payment
required hereunder, and in that event, where the breach is not remedied within
sixty (60) days after receipt of notice specifying the amount due;
(c) at the option of the Sponsor, in the event the Principal
Investigator should terminate his employment with the University; or
(d) upon the termination of the License Agreement in accordance with
its terms.
9.2 Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the rights and
obligations of the parties that have accrued and vested prior to termination,
all of which shall survive. In addition, the obligations of the parties under
Articles 5 and 11 shall survive termination of this Agreement. Except as
otherwise required pursuant to this Section 9.2, Sponsor's sole liability to
University under this Agreement upon its termination shall be the obligation to
make payments for which Sponsor is liable up to the date of termination; and,
where termination results from University's Default, Sponsor may deduct from
such payment any and all charges required to be expended by Sponsor to correct
or complete the work of the Research Program, including any damages or expenses
attributable to defective work.
9.3 Upon termination of this Agreement, University shall deliver to
Sponsor any materials and documents then required to be delivered pursuant to

----------------------------
held invalid or unenforceable by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction, such
provision shall be reformed to the minimal extent necessary to render such
provision valid and enforceable. If such reformation cannot be granted, then

recover costs and attorney's fees incurred in connection with the arbitration
proceeding. At their election the parties may jointly apply to the District
Court in Cuyahoga County, Ohio for the appointment of an arbitrator to hear and
resolve the dispute, in which event such arbitrator shall be guided by the
7.
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. In such event, the costs associated
with the application to such Court shall be shared equally by the parties, but
the fees of the arbitrator and the arbitration costs shall be paid by the party
against whom the award is rendered. The arbitrators shall have the power to
grant relief in equity as well as at law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
provision shall not preclude (a) any party from seeking temporary injunctive
relief from a court pending arbitration, or (b) the parties from seeking to
mediate any dispute hereunder as a more expeditious and less expensive
alternative to arbitration.
11.9 Force Majeure. Performance of this Agreement is subject to
-------------
unavoidable delays to the extent caused by force majeure, in the nature of war,
civil unrest, labor dispute, epidemic, natural disaster, or because of any
governmental law or order effectively suspending performance, or any other cause
beyond the reasonable control of the party affected and occurring without its
fault; provided that notice of such force majeure shall be given by the affected
party to the other party with reasonable promptness, specifying the cause of the
delay, and the affected party shall use reasonable efforts to resume performance
of its obligations. The time for performance shall be extended by an amount of
time equal to the period during which the effects of force majeure have
prevented performance.

------------------
such further documents and to take any and all such further action as may be
