6. OPTION TO BMS
6.1 Option to Non-Exclusive License. ENZON hereby grants BMS and its AFFILIATES the option to take a non-exclusive license under PATENT RIGHTS (as defined in the applicable license agreement referred to below) in the field of (a) cancer therapeutics, or (b) all therapeutics. BMS may exercise this option by signing and delivering to ENZON the License Agreement of Appendix IV [*] or Appendix V [*] accompanied by payment of the sum of [*] Dollars ($[*]) for cancer therapeutics, or [*] Dollars ($[*]) for all therapeutics. [*] Percent ([*]%) of the cash payment of Section 4.1 hereof shall be credited against the applicable option exercise payment if exercise occurs on or before [*]. [*] Percent ([*]%) of the cash payment of Section 4.1 hereof shall be credited against the applicable option exercise payment if exercise occurs after [*] but on or before [*]. This option shall expire on [*]. With respect to each exclusive license agreement in the field of therapeutics covering PATENT RIGHTS entered into by ENZON after the EFFECTIVE DATE, ENZON shall expressly subject the license granted thereunder to the option granted to BMS under this Section 6.1 by way of an express disclosure comparable to Appendix III in such exclusive license agreement.
7. INFRINGEMENT
7.1 No Warranty of Non-Infringement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a warranty, assurance, or representation by ENZON or its AFFILIATES that BMS or its AFFILIATES or sublicensees can make, have made, use, or sell PRODUCT free of any proprietary rights, including third party patent rights, other than those specifically granted in this Agreement. ENZON hereby represents that, as of the EFFECTIVE DATE, BMS' practice of the inventions covered by PATENT RIGHTS pursuant to the license granted hereunder will not infringe any existing patent (including patent to issue on an existing patent application) right owned, or licensed on a royalty-free basis with the right to sublicense, by ENZON or its AFFILIATES not licensed hereunder, to the extent that such practice does not involve the modification of any SCA PROTEIN as described in Area 8 listed in Appendix II.
7.2 Infringement by BMS. In the event that BMS or its AFFILIATES or sublicensees are sued for infringement by reason of practicing any invention covered by PATENT RIGHTS, BMS or its AFFILIATES shall notify ENZON in writing of the suit and shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to defend such suit at the expense of BMS or its AFFILIATES or sublicensees, as the case may be. Only with respect to matters pertaining to the validity or enforceability of PATENT RIGHTS shall ENZON have the right to provide advice and assistance in any such litigation at its expense, unless such advice and assistance are requested by BMS or its AFFILIATES or sublicensees, in which case it shall be at the expense of BMS or its AFFILIATES or sublicensees, as the case may be. In the event ENZON is joined in such litigation, ENZON shall have the right to defend itself with counsel of its choice at its expense.
7.3 Infringement by Third Party.
- (a)
- BMS
shall notify ENZON of any infringement by a third party of any PATENT RIGHTS in the FIELD that BMS is aware of, and shall provide ENZON with the available evidence, if any, of
such infringement.
- (b)
- ENZON shall have the exclusive right and sole discretion during the term of this Agreement to stop such infringement including bringing suit or other proceeding against the infringer in its own name and BMS shall be kept informed at all times of all such actions taken by ENZON. If ENZON requests, BMS may, at BMS' discretion, assist ENZON as a party to the lawsuit or other proceeding at ENZON's expense; however, ENZON shall retain control of the prosecution of such suit or proceeding, as the case may be.
5
- (c)
- ENZON
shall bear all its costs incurred in connection with such lawsuit or other proceeding, and consequently shall be entitled to collect and retain for its own account such
damages and profits as may be accrued as a result of such lawsuit or other proceeding; provided, however, that, if (and only if) such damages and profits have been determined on the basis of such
infringement, then the total amount of such damages and profits, net of ENZON's lost royalties hereunder, litigation costs and expenses, shall be shared with BMS as follows: ENZON shall be entitled to
[*] of such net amount; and BMS shall be entitled to the remainder.
- (d)
- If
third party infringement in the FIELD in a particular country continues for more than six months after BMS' notice to ENZON under this Section 7.3, then any royalty
obligation incurred by BMS under Section 4.3 hereof shall be reduced by [*] until such third party infringement terminates. For purposes of
the above sentence, sales by a third party of infringing product in such country shall not be considered to be "third party infringement" unless such sales, together with sales of infringing product
by any other third parties, equal or exceed [*] of BMS sales of PRODUCT in such country.
- (e)
- Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as obligating ENZON, or giving BMS the right, to proceed against a third party infringer.
8. CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-USE AND PUBLICATIONS
8.1 ENZON's Rights. Other than the option granted to BMS pursuant to Section 6.1, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit or limit in any manner ENZON's right to grant any license for PATENT RIGHTS to any party outside the FIELD.
