Acquisition Regulations.
1. | Invention means any invention or discovery which is or may be patentable or otherwise protectable under Title 35 of the United States Code, or any novel variety of plant which is or may be protected under the Plant Variety Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 2321 et seq.). | ||
2. | Subject Invention means any Invention of CWRU or SUBCONTRACTOR conceived or first actually reduced to practice in the performance of work under this contract, provided that in the case of a variety of plant, the date of determination [as defined in section 41 (d) of the Plant Variety Xxxxxxxxxx Xxx, 0 X.X.X. 0000 (x) ] must also occur during the period of contract performance. | ||
3. | Each party may retain the entire right, title, and interest throughout the world to each Subject Invention subject to the provisions of 37 CFR 401.14 and 35 U.S.C. 203. With respect to any Subject Invention in which that party retains title, the Federal Government shall have a nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to practice or have practiced for or on behalf of the United States the Subject Invention throughout the world. | ||
4. | If any Subject Invention is developed jointly by employees or agents of both parties, both parties shall jointly own (without any duty to account to the other for profits) all right, title and interest (including patents, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights) therein. Both parties will engage in good faith efforts to mutually agree on whether and how to pursue patent, copyright or mask work protection of the invention in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Upon the generation of a Subject Invention that a party believes to be jointly developed with the other party, such party shall so advise the other party, and the technical advisory board shall determine which party made the greater contribution to the Subject Invention in question. If the technical advisory board cannot reach a decision upon the matter, it shall be referred to arbitration under Article XV hereof. The party that is determined to have made the greater contribution shall take the lead in obtaining intellectual property protection regarding the Subject Invention in question (the “Lead Party”). In the event that it is determined that both parties made equal contributions, then for the first such situation of a determination of equal contributions the Lead Party shall be determined by a toss of the coin. For subsequent determination of equal |

4
contributions the parties shall alternate in taking the role as Lead Party. The Lead Party shall keep the other party fully advised of the steps being taken in regard to obtaining intellectual property protection. If the other party disagrees with an action(s) of the Lead Party the matter shall be submitted to arbitration, under Article XV hereof upon a request made by the objecting party, if the request is made within thirty days of the objecting party learning of the action in question. If either party fails to pay one-half of the expenses of obtaining particular intellectual property protection within sixty days of being presented with the xxxx for such, that party shall thereby forfeit all rights to practice under that intellectual property protection in the country where such protection is being obtained. | |||
5. | Each party shall have licensing and commercialization rights and options as will be defined in an agreement which shall be made an addendum hereto which is currently being negotiated in good faith by the parties. A copy of said agreement will be provided to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). | ||
6. | If and when a Subject Invention is created that may be amenable to patenting and/or licensing, the CWRU Principal Investigator will disclose the Subject Invention to the CWRU Technology Transfer Office (“TTO”) and/or the SUBCONTRACTOR Principal Investigator will disclose the Subject Invention to the SUBCONTRACTOR’s intellectual property office, each in accordance with their respective policies and practices, thereby creating a “Disclosure.” Each party will promptly notify the other party in writing of receipt of any Disclosure, normally within four weeks (“Notification”). In no event shall the Notification be delivered to a party with an insufficient period of time for that party to meet its reporting requirements to the Federal Government. | ||
7. | Regarding its sole Subject Inventions, each party may, at its discretion and consistent with the requirements of 37 CFR 401.14(c)(3), file an application for, and take steps to obtain and maintain the validity of a patent(s) related to a Disclosure, in the United States and/or any other country, and/or may take any other action (such as Copyright registration) to obtain other protection in any country. | ||
8. | Each party agrees that it will advise their respective employees that it is necessary to hold in confidence all technical information and know-how received from the other party (the “Confidential Information”) in connection with this Agreement and that it will not disclose any Confidential Information of the other party and will allow the review of any proposed patent applications or other protective measures containing joint Subject Inventions to ensure that no Confidential Information is included. The obligation of nondisclosure will not apply to the extent Confidential Information (i) was known to the receiving party at the time it was disclosed, other than by previous disclosure by the disclosing party, as evidenced by the receiving party’s written records at the time of disclosure; (ii) is at the time of disclosure or later becomes publicly known under circumstances involving no breach of this Agreement; (iii) is lawfully and in good faith made available to the receiving party by a third party who did not derive it, directly or indirectly, from the disclosing party; or (iv) is independently developed by a receiving party without the use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. |
