SECTION 4. Termination. Upon the payment in full of the Note and of future invoices issued by Recipient under the Fee Agreement, the Recipient shall promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Pledgor an instrument or instruments (in recordable form, if necessary) releasing the collateral pledge, grant, assignment, lien and security interest in the IP Collateral.
SECTION 5. Counterparts. This Patent Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any party hereto may execute this Patent Security Agreement by signing and delivering one or more counterparts.
SECTION 6. Governing Law. This Patent Security Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and all disputes between the parties under or relating to this Patent Security Agreement or the facts or circumstances leading to its execution, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws (including statutes of limitation) of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
