10.2 | The Licensee will provide OUI with a royalty report within thirty (30) days after the close of each Quarter for each Licensed Product Marketed by the Licensee, including a royalty report confirming that no royalties are due for a Quarter. Each Royalty Report will: | |
10.2.1 | set out the Net Sales of each Licensed Product Marketed by the Licensee or any sub-licensee, including the total gross selling price of each Licensed Product Marketed by the Licensee and any sub-licensees and the quantity or total number of units of each Licensed Product Marketed by the Licensee or any sub-licensee; | |
10.2.2 | set out details of deductions made in the calculation of Net Sales from the invoiced price of each Licensed Product in the form in which it is Marketed by the Licensee; | |

The Licensee must pay OUI the royalties due in respect of the Quarter just closed at the same time as the Licensee delivers the Royalty Report, provided that, if requested, OUI will issue an invoice for the relevant payment prior to payment. | ||
10.3 | In the event of a dispute regarding the calculation of Net Sales or other payments, including the Licensee’s interpretation of International Financial Reporting Standards, whether following an audit pursuant to clause 10.6 or otherwise, the dispute shall be referred to an appropriately qualified independent expert (the “Expert”) jointly appointed by the parties (acting reasonably) who shall settle the dispute as follows. The Expert shall ask each party for written submissions within thirty (30) days of its appointment and shall be given access to the parties’ records and correspondence applicable to the dispute. The Expert shall have a period of sixty (60) days after this time to decide the dispute. The Expert will be appointed as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The parties will each have the right to make representations to the Expert. The Expert’s decision shall be binding on the parties without right of appeal and the costs of the Expert shall be borne by the non-prevailing party. |
10.4 | The Licensee will deliver to OUI a periodic report at the close of each Licence Year providing sufficient data (in outline form) to give a reasonable indication or estimate of the actual or expected market share of the Licensee and its sub-licensees and will notify OUI in the event that its market share does or is expected to breach the limits set out in the 2014 Commission Regulation 316/2014 Technology Transfer Block Exemption Regulation and Guidelines in Commission Communication 2014/c 89/03 whilst it applies to the UK or the limits set out in the Competition Xxx 0000 as amended, replaced, updated, re-enacted or consolidated from time to time. This obligation is not intended to place a significant additional financial burden on the Licensee. | |
10.5 | The Licensee will provide data and any other information on the Licensee’s use of the Licensed Technology if asked to do so by the University to assist the University in demonstrating the University’s impact on society and to support drafting a Research Excellence Framework impact case study for the University to submit to Research England of UK Research and Innovation as required under the current or any future (however named) Research Excellence Framework audit process. | |
10.6 | The Licensee must keep complete and proper records and accurate accounts of all Licensed Products used and Marketed by the Licensee and any sub-licensee in each Licence Year for at least six (6) years. OUI may, through an independent certified accountant appointed by OUI (“the Auditor”), audit all such accounts on at least thirty (30) days’ written notice no more than once each Licence Year for the purpose of determining the accuracy of the Royalty Reports and payments. The Auditor shall be: | |
10.6.1 | permitted by the Licensee to enter the Licensee’s principal place of business upon reasonable notice to inspect such records and accounts; | |
10.6.2 | entitled to take copies of or extracts from such records and accounts as are strictly necessary for the Auditor to properly conduct the audit; | |
10.6.3 | given all other information by the Licensee as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the amount of royalties payable to be ascertained including the provision of relevant records; and | |
10.6.4 | shall be allowed access to and permitted, to the extent reasonably required, to conduct interviews of any staff of the Licensee in order to verify the accuracy of the records and accounts and the accuracy of any statements provided to OUI under clause 10.2. | |
If on any such audit a shortfall in payments of greater than five per cent (5%) is discovered by the Auditor in respect of the audit period, the Licensee shall pay OUI’s audit costs. | ||
10.7 | The auditing rights and obligations on the Licensee set out in clause 10.6 will apply equally to any sub-licensees allowed for in this agreement and the Licensee will ensure that the same obligations and access rights allowing OUI auditing rights to the sub- licensee are included in each sub-licence agreement. |

11.3 | The Licensee may terminate this agreement for any reason at any time provided it gives OUI six (6) months’ written notice to terminate expiring after the third anniversary of this agreement. Any such termination shall not absolve the Licensee of its obligation to accrue and pay royalties and other payments under the provisions of clause 8 in respect of the period prior to termination. | |
11.4 | OUI may terminate this agreement: | |
11.4.1 | immediately, if the Licensee has a petition presented for its winding-up, (but excluding for this purpose any winding up petition presented against the Licensee in relation to any debt disputed by the Licensee), or passes a resolution for voluntary winding-up otherwise than for the purposes of a bona fide amalgamation or reconstruction, or compounds with its creditors, or has a receiver administrator or administrative receiver appointed over all or any part of its assets, or enters into any arrangements with creditors, or takes or suffers any similar action in consequence of debts; | |
11.4.2 | on thirty (30) days’ written notice if: | |
(1) | the Licensee opposes or challenges the validity of the Application provided always that nothing in this clause 11.4.2 will prevent the Licensee from seeking to determine whether a product of the Licensee is a Licensed Product for the purposes of this agreement and the seeking of such determination shall not trigger any termination rights herein; or | |
(2) | the Licensee is in breach of clause 9 and the Licensee does not take any remedial action reasonably requested by OUI and notified to the Licensee by written notice pursuant to clause 11.2 within a reasonable time. | |

13.3 | Packaging – The Licensee will ensure that the Licensed Products and the packaging associated with them are marked suitably with any relevant patent or patent application numbers to satisfy the laws of each of the countries in which the Licensed Products are sold or supplied and in which they are covered by the claims of any patent or patent application, to the intent that OUI shall not suffer any loss or any loss of damages in an infringement action. |
13.4 | Thesis - This agreement shall not prevent or hinder registered students of the University from submitting for degrees of the University theses based on the Licensed Technology; or from following the University’s procedures for examinations and for admission to postgraduate degree status. |

13.8 | Assignment – The Licensee may assign any of its rights or obligations under this agreement in whole or in part, to an Affiliate and only for so long as it remains an Affiliate and OUI shall at the request of the Licensee execute a Deed of Novation to bring about that assignment. Except as provided in this clause, the Licensee may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this agreement without the prior written consent of OUI (such consent not to be withheld or delayed or conditioned except solely on reasonable grounds, that primarily relate to avoiding any detrimental reputational impact on the University or the assignee having insufficient funds to fulfil the obligations of this agreement, it being acknowledged and agreed that if the assignee is a publicly listed company with a market capitalisation equal to or in excess of £100 million it will be considered to have sufficient financial resources). If OUI assigns its rights in the Licensed Technology to any person it shall do so expressly subject to the Licensee’s rights under this agreement. |
13.9 | Severability - If any of the provisions of this agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired.

Specifically, but without limitation, this agreement does not impose or imply any obligation on OUI or the University to conduct development work. Any arrangements for such work must be the subject of a separate agreement between the University and the Licensee. |
13.12 | Variation - Any variation of this agreement must be in writing and signed by authorised signatories for both parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this agreement may rescind or vary this agreement without the consent of any party that has the benefit of clause 13.14. |
13.13 | Waiver - No failure or delay by either party in enforcing its rights under this agreement, or at law or in equity will prejudice or restrict those rights. No waiver of any right will operate as a waiver of any other or later right or breach. Except as stated to the contrary in this agreement, no right, power or remedy conferred on, or reserved to, either party is exclusive of any other right, power or remedy available to it, and each of those rights, powers, and remedies is cumulative. |
