1. (a) UMDNJ represents and warrants that it is the successor to The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc., a not-for-profit research corporation of the State of New York, Inc. as a result of the acquisition of assets of The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc. by UMDNJ in December 2006, and that it is further the assignee of all the patent rights licensed by The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc. to OXFORD IMMUNOTEC pursuant to the License Agreement.
(b) The parties acknowledge that the First Amendment improperly substituted PHRI Properties, Inc. as the assignee of The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc., instead of UMDNJ. The parties further acknowledge that OXFORD IMMUNOTEC has been providing reports and payments to either The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc., or PHRI Properties, Inc. since 2006 and not to UMDNJ. UMDNJ waives, on its behalf and on behalf of any predecessor in interest to its rights under this Agreement, any claims against OXFORD IMMUNOTEC for failure to timely and fully comply with the terms of the Agreement to the extent that OXFORD IMMUNOTEC made reports and payments to The Public Health Research Institute of the City of New York, Inc., or to PHRI Properties, Inc. rather than to UMDNJ.
(c) All references in the License Agreement or the First Amendment to PHRI or PHRI Properties shall hereafter mean UMDNJ and the term “UMDNJ Patent Rights” shall hereafter be substituted for “PHRI Patent Rights”.
