NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

(b) “Affiliate” shall mean, when used with respect to a specified Person, a Person and at a point in, or with respect to a period of, time, a Person that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such specified Person at such point in or during such period of time. For the purposes of this definition, “control”, when used with respect to any specified Person shall mean the possession,

directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or other interests, by contract or otherwise. It is expressly agreed that Versum and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed Affiliates of Air Products or any of its Affiliates.

(c) “Change of Control” means (i) the direct or indirect acquisition, by any Person or group of Persons acting in concert, whether by merger, reorganization, consolidation, sale, operation of law or otherwise, in one transaction or any related series of transactions, of control of such Party or (ii) the sale, transfer or disposition by such Party, in one transaction or any related series of transactions, of all or substantially all of such Party’s assets, in each case other than to a Subsidiary of such Party (but only for so long as such Subsidiary remains a Subsidiary of such Party). For the purposes of this definition, “control” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the definition of “Affiliate” herein.

(d) “Confidential Technical Information” means all Know-How licensed or disclosed by either Party hereunder, whether in written or other tangible or intangible form, including any such information known by either party as a result of the parties being a single entity prior to the Separation Agreement. Disclosure of Confidential Technical Information by one Party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (“Recipient”) hereunder shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement (including Article VI). “Confidential Technical Information” shall also include any physical or tangible items embodying or including any Confidential Technical Information.

ARTICLE III

PROSECUTION AND MAINTENANCE; OWNERSHIP

Section 3.1 Responsibility and Cooperation.

(a) Subject to Section 3.2, Licensor shall be solely responsible for filing, prosecuting, and maintaining all Patents within the Licensed IP owned by Licensor. Licensor shall be responsible for all costs associated with filing, prosecuting, and maintaining such Patents. Without limiting the foregoing, each Licensor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute and maintain in good faith all Patents licensed under this Agreement.

(b) Licensee shall reasonably cooperate with Licensor with respect to providing such information or taking such other actions as may be necessary in order to protect each Party’s rights in the Licensed IP in connection with requirements or provisions of applicable Laws in local jurisdictions.

(c) The Parties agree to reasonably cooperate with each other with respect to preparing instruments to record Licensee as the licensee of the Licensed IP in any applicable foreign Governmental Entity or registrar where such recordation is required, in each case as and to the extent so required under the applicable Laws of such jurisdictions, and Licensee shall have the right to record such instrument with the applicable Governmental Entity or registrar, in each case at Licensee’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any such instrument, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and such instrument, this Agreement shall control. For clarity and without limiting the foregoing, any such instrument may or may not refer to this Agreement or include disclaimers, limitations or exceptions with respect to the Licensed IP or the licenses thereto and may be dated as of, before or after the Effective Date.

Section 3.2 Failure to Prosecute or Maintain.

(a) In the event that either Party as Licensor decides to forego prosecution or maintenance of a Patent for which it is allocated responsibility pursuant to Section 3.1, such Licensor (the “Abandoning Party”) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice to Licensee at least thirty (30) days prior to the final deadline for taking a necessary step to continue to prosecute or maintain the applicable Patent (such notice, the “Assumption Notice”). Upon receipt of such Assumption Notice, such Licensee will have the option of assuming responsibility for such prosecution and maintenance at its sole expense. If such

7

Licensee elects to assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance pursuant to this Section 3.2, such Licensee shall notify the Abandoning Party in writing of such election within thirty (30) days and the Abandoning Party shall assign its entire right, title and interest in such Patent to Licensee; provided that the Abandoning Party shall:

(i) retain (and is hereby granted) a license with respect to the applicable Patent consistent with Section 2.1 (if the Abandoning Party is Versum, such Patent shall thereafter be deemed an Air Products Licensed Patent hereunder) or Section 2.2 ( if the Abandoning Party is Air Products, such Patent shall thereafter be deemed a Versum Licensed Patent (as applicable) hereunder), and

(ii) have no other obligation thereby to assign any related Patents or Patent applications, including any Patents or Patent applications in such assigned Patent’s family.

(b) For avoidance of doubt, if the applicable Licensee does not notify the Abandoning Party of its election in writing within thirty (30) days following the applicable Assumption Notice from the Abandoning Party, such Licensee shall be deemed to have elected to not assume responsibility for prosecution and maintenance pursuant to this Section 3.2 and the Licensor may abandon such Patent or decide not to abandon such Patent.

(c) Neither Licensor shall be liable to any Licensee for any inadvertent, unintentional or unavoidable abandonment of any Patent of such Licensor. The assignee Party shall be responsible for preparing and filing assignment documents required for completing formalities to assign the applicable Patent pursuant to Section 3.2(a). In the event of an assignment of a Patent pursuant to Section 3.2(a), the Parties agree to reasonably cooperate in executing appropriate assignment documents provided by the assignee Party to complete such formalities, such as powers of attorney and documents for recording assignments for all such assigned Patents, upon request from the assignee Party. All out-of-pocket expenses associated with preparing and recording any assignment of a Patent under Section 3.2(a) shall be paid by the assignee Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the assignee shall become responsible for all prosecution or maintenance as of the date of the notice indicating its desires for the assignment as well as for all payments due to continue or maintain the Patent, including any expenses for legal services, fees and the like. If a Patent is assigned under Section 3.2(a), then, unless otherwise agreed in writing, the assignee may abandon such Patent without notice or obligation of assignment to the other Party.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Licensor shall be (i) free to abandon pending patent applications and (ii) shall have no obligation to file any national or regional application based on any international or regional patent applications or filings (including any PCT or EPO applications) whether or not designated under such applications or filings, without any obligation of notice or assignment to the Licensee.

(e) For the purposes of this Section 3.2, notices concerning abandoning and assignment of Patents shall be sent in accordance with Section 8.6 herein.

8

Section 3.3 Sale of Licensed Patents by Licensor. Licensor and its Affiliates shall be free to sell, convey or transfer any Patent licensed by it hereunder so long as the sale, conveyance or transfer is accomplished subject to any rights hereunder of each Licensee and its Affiliates.

Section 3.4 Ownership. As between the Parties, Licensee acknowledges and agrees that (i) Versum owns the Versum Licensed Patents, and Air Products owns the Air Products Licensed IP, (ii) except as provided in Section 3.2, neither Licensee, nor its Affiliates or its sublicensees, will acquire any ownership rights in the Licensed IP owned by the Licensor, and (iii) Licensee shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and its sublicensees to not, represent that they have an ownership interest in any of the Licensed IP owned by the Licensor.

Section 3.5 No Additional Obligations. This Agreement shall not obligate either Party to disclose to the other Party, or maintain, register, prosecute, pay for, enforce, or otherwise manage any Intellectual Property except as expressly set forth herein.

ARTICLE IV

ENFORCEMENT

Section 4.1 Notification. If Licensee becomes aware of (a) any Third Party activities that constitute, or would reasonably be expected to constitute, an infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any Licensed IP licensed to such Licensee in the field where the Licensee has an exclusive license hereunder (“Third Party Infringement”) or (b) any written Third Party allegations of invalidity or unenforceability of any Licensed IP licensed to such Licensee (“Invalidity Allegations”), Licensee shall promptly notify Licensor thereof in writing.

Section 4.2 Defense and Enforcement. Licensor shall have the sole initial right, but not the obligation, to elect to bring an Action or enter into settlement discussions regarding Third Party Infringements and Invalidity Allegations with respect to any Licensed IP at Licensor’s sole expense. If Licensor does not bring such an action or enter into settlement discussions with respect to such Licensed IP within one-hundred eighty (180) days after receiving notice from Licensee pursuant to Section 4.1, Licensee shall have the right to bring an Action or enter into settlement discussions regarding such Third Party Infringement or Invalidity Allegations at its sole expense; provided, further, that (i) if Licensor does not bring such an Action or does not notify Licensee of its election to bring such an Action for a Third Party Infringement or to defend an Invalidity Allegation with respect to such Licensed IP by twenty (20) Business Days before the deadline for filing the applicable filing or response, such Licensee shall have the right to bring an Action regarding such Third Party Infringement or Invalidity Allegations at its sole expense, and (ii) Licensor shall have no liability for failing to so notify Licensee as provided in this Section 4.2. The Party that elects to bring an Action or enters into settlement discussions in accordance with this Section 4.2 (the “Enforcing Party”) shall control such Action or settlement discussions (as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Invalidity Allegations arise in an opposition, interference, reissue proceeding, reexamination or other proceeding before any patent office, the Licensor of the applicable Patent shall have the exclusive right to defend such Invalidity Allegations or enter into settlement discussions with respect thereto.

9

Section 4.3 Cooperation. If the Enforcing Party brings an Action or enters into settlement discussions in accordance with Section 4.2, the other Party shall provide reasonable assistance in connection therewith, at the Enforcing Party’s request and expense. The Enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such Action or settlement discussions and shall reasonably consider comments of the other Party in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such other Party may, at its sole discretion and expense, join as a party to such Action or proceeding; provided that if necessary for standing purposes, such Party shall so join such Action or proceeding upon the Enforcing Party’s reasonable request and at the Enforcing Party’s expense. Such other Party shall have the right to be represented by counsel (which shall act in an advisory capacity only, except for matters solely directed to such Party) of its own choice in any such Action or proceeding at its own expense.

Section 4.4 Settlements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Enforcing Party shall not settle any Third Party Infringement or Invalidity Allegations without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of (i) Air Products (if Versum is the Enforcing Party) or (ii) Versum (if Air Products is the Enforcing Party), in each case if doing so would (a) adversely affect the validity, enforceability, or scope, or admit non-infringement, of any Licensed IP owned by the other Party as Licensor, or (b) give rise to liability or any other obligations of the other Party, its Affiliates, or its sublicensees for which the Party settling the matter is unwilling or unable to, and otherwise does not, provide full indemnification.

Section 4.5 Costs, Expenses, and Damages. Any and all amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party in any Action regarding a Third Party Infringement or Invalidity Allegation or settlement thereof shall, unless otherwise agreed, including in an agreement in connection with obtaining consent to settlement, be allocated first to reimburse the Enforcing Party’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Action or settlement and next to reimburse Air Products’ (if Versum is the Enforcing Party) or Versum’s (if Air Products is the Enforcing Party) out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such Action or settlement. Any and all such recovered amounts remaining following such initial allocation shall be retained by the Enforcing Party.

(a) to the Recipient’s Affiliates or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors and advisors (“Representatives”) to the extent reasonably necessary for the Recipient to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement; provided that such Representatives have undertaken an obligation of secrecy through an agreement with Recipient or its Affiliate or through professional ethical obligations arising out of a professional relationship with Recipient or its Affiliate;

(b) pursuant to an order of a court or other Governmental Entity or as required by applicable Law (including if required by applicable Law in connection with a Recipient’s good-faith pursuit of a bona fide business interest); provided that the Recipient provides the Disclosing Party to the extent practicable with reasonable advance written notice thereof and uses diligent and commercially reasonable efforts and reasonably cooperates with the Disclosing Party to obtain confidential treatment and, if available, an appropriate protective order therefor, if applicable, and only furnishes that Confidential Technical Information that it is advised by counsel that it is legally required to furnish; and

(c) to Recipient’s licensees or sublicensees to the extent reasonably necessary to enable such Persons to exercise any license or sublicense rights (as applicable) that they have been granted to or retained under the Licensed IP; provided that they are subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least equivalent in scope to those set forth in this Article VI.

Section 8.2 Waiver. Any consent required or permitted to be given by any Party to the other Party under this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the Party giving such consent and shall be effective only against such Party. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or any other right.

Section 8.3 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules hereto, shall constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, commitments, course of dealings and writings with respect to such subject matter.

Section 8.4 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be void.
