Licensee shall take no action to compel the Government either to initiate or to join in any such declaratory judgment action. Licensee may request the Government to initiate or joining any such suit if necessary to avoid dismissal of the suit. Should the Government be made a party to any such suit by motion or any other action of Licensee, Licensee shall reimburse the Government for any costs, expenses, or fees which the Government incurs as a result of such motion or other action. Upon Licensee’s payment of all costs incurred by the Government as a result of Licensee’s joinder motion or other action, these actions by Licensee will not be considered a default in the performance of any material obligation under this Agreement. If Licensee elects not to defend against such declaratory judgment action, PHS, at its option, may do so at its own expense. In all cases, Licensee agrees to keep PHS reasonably apprised of the status and progress of any litigation. Before licensee commences an infringement action, licensee shall notify PHS and give careful consideration to the views of PHS and to any potential effects of the litigation on the public health in deciding whether to bring suit.

14. GENERAL PROVISIONS

14.01  Neither Party may waive or release any of its rights or interests in this Agreement except in writing. The failure of the Government to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right by the Government or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or condition by Licensee.

14.02  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties relating to the subject matter of the Licensed Patent Rights, and all prior negotiations, representations, agreements, and understandings are merged into, extinguished by, and completely expressed by this Agreement.

14.03  The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and in the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any controlling body of law, such determination shall not in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

14.04  If either Party desires a modification to this Agreement, the Parties shall, upon reasonable notice of the proposed modification by the Party desiring the change, confer in good faith to determine the desirability of such modification. No modification will be effective until a written amendment is signed by the signatories to this Agreement or their designees.

14.05  The construction, validity, performance, and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by Federal law as applied by the Federal courts in the District of Columbia.

14.06  All notices required or permitted by this Agreement shall be given by prepaid, first class, registered or certified mail properly addressed to the other Party at the address designated on the following Signature Page, or to such other address as may be designated in writing by such other Party, and shall be effective as of the date of the postmark of such notice.

14.07  This Agreement shall not be assigned by Licensee except a) with the prior written consent of PHS, such consent to be reasonably given; or b) as part of a sale or transfer of substantially the entire business of Licensee relating to operations which concern this Agreement or c) to any Affiliate of Hafslund Nycomed AS. Licensee shall notify PHS within ten (10) days of any assignment of this Agreement by Licensee.

14.08  Licensee agrees in its use of any PHS-supplied materials to comply with oil applicable statutes, regulations, and guidelines, including Public Health Service and National Institutes of Health regulations and guidelines. Licensee agrees not to use the materials for research involving human subjects or clinical trials in the United States without complying with 21 CFR Part 50 and 45 CFR Part 46. Licensee agrees not to use the materials for research involving human subjects or clinical trials outside of the United States without notifying PHS, in writing, of such research or trials and complying with the applicable regulations of the appropriate national control authorities. Written notification to PHS of research involving human subjects or clinical trials outside of the United States shall be given no later than sixty (60) days prior to commencement of such research or trials.

14.09  Licensee acknowledges that it is subject to and agrees to abide by the United States laws and regulations (including the Export Administration Act of 1979 and Arms Export Control Act) controlling the export of technical data, computer software, laboratory prototypes, biological material, and other commodities. The transfer of such items may require a license from the cognizant agency of the U.S. Government or written assurances by Licensee that it shall not export such items to certain foreign countries without prior approval of such agency. PHS neither represents that a license is or is not required or that, if required, it shall be issued.

14.10  Licensee agrees to xxxx the Licensed Products or their packaging sold in the United States with all applicable U.S. patent numbers and similarly to indicate “Patent Pending” status. All Licensed Products manufactured in, shipped to, or sold in other countries shall be marked in such a manner as to preserve PHS patent rights in such countries.

14.11  By entering into this Agreement, PHS does not directly or indirectly endorse any product or service provided, or to be provided, by Licensee whether directly or indirectly related to this Agreement. Licensee shall not state or imply that this Agreement is an endorsement by the Government PHS, any other Government organizational unit, or any Government employee. Additionally, Licensee shall not use the names of NIH, CDC, or PHS or their employees in any advertising, promotional, or sales literature without the prior written consent of PHS.

14.12  The Parties agree to attempt to settle amicably any controversy or claim arising under this Agreement or a breach of this Agreement, except for appeals of modification or termination decisions provided for in Article 13. Licensee agrees first to appeal any such unsettled claims or controversies to the Director of NIH,

14

or designee, whose decision shall be considered the final agency decision. The decision of the Director of NIH will be given within two (2) months after all relevant information has been obtained by the NIH. Thereafter, Licensee may exercise any administrative or judicial remedies that may be available.

14.13  Nothing relating to the grant of a license, nor the grant itself, shall be construed to confer upon any person any immunity from or defenses under the antitrust laws or from a charge of patent misuse, and the acquisition and use of rights pursuant to 37 CFR Part 404 shall not be immunized from the operation of state or Federal law by reason of the source of the grant.

14.14  Paragraphs 4.03, 8.01, 9.06, 9.07, 12.01-12.05, 13.09, 13.10, and 14.12 of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.
