ARTICLE 7 - PATENT PROSECUTION

7.1 UNIVERSITY shall apply for, seek prompt issuance of, and maintain during the term of this Agreement the PATENT RIGHTS unless otherwise agreed by the LICENSEE and any third. party that is also a licensee with respect to a patent application or patent within such PATENT RIGHTS, provided, however, that LICENSEE and, if applicable, any such third party licensee shall: (i) agree upon and select patent counsel to be used by the UNIVERSITY (and shall select new patent counsel from time to time as LICENSEE, UNIVERSITY and any such third party licensee may agree) and (ii) have the opportunity to review and comment on decisions to be made or answers to examiner comments, which comments shall be duly considered and included in any proposed amendments. UNIVERSITY shall keep LICENSEE regularly updated of the status of the patent application filings. UNIVERSITY agrees to consult LICENSEE to determine in which countries the application has to be extended and to extend the patent application in the countries selected- by LICENSEE and any applicable third party licensee of the PATENT RIGHTS. UNIVERSITY shall diligently file, prosecute and maintain the patent applications. The prosecution, filing and maintenance of all PATENT RIGHTS patents shall be the primary responsibility of UNIVERSITY as set forth in this Article 7, provided that this Article 7 shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Article 5.1(e) of this Agreement.

7.2 UNIVERSITY shall, at the request of the LICENSEE and/or any third party that is also a licensee with respect to a patent application or patent within the PATENT RIGHTS, file, prosecute and maintain patent applications and patents covered by the PATENT RIGHTS in foreign countries if available. LICENSEE shall notify UNIVERSITY within six (6) months of any operative deadline of its decision to request UNIVERSITY to file foreign counterpart patent applications or to proceed to interference, appeal, inter partes, ex partes proceeding or any kind of litigation. The notice concerning foreign filing must be in writing and must identify the countries desired. Failure by LICENSEE to so notify UNIVERSITY within the six (6) months period is an election by LICENSEE not to request UNIVERSITY to secure foreign patent rights with respect to such PATENT RIGHTS. UNIVERSITY has the right to file patent applications at its own expense in any country LICENSEE and/or applicable third party licensees have not included in its list of desired countries, and those applications and resulting patents, if any, are not included in the licenses granted under this Agreement.

Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing of any known or suspected third party infringement of any PATENT RIGHTS in the LICENSED FIELD or if any action for a declaration of non-infringement or invalidity of any PATENT RIGHTS is made by a third party, or if any allegation of infringement of third party patents is made against either Party, an affiliate, or a sublicensee as a result of the manufacture, use or sale of a LICENSED PRODUCT or LICENSED PROCESS.

8.2 UNIVERSITY Right to Prosecute.

9.2 From the date of FIRST COMMERCIAL SALE and thereafter during the TERM, LICENSEE shall obtain and carry in full force and effect commercial, general liability insurance, which shall protect LICENSEE and UNIVERSITY with respect to events covered by Article 9.1 above. Such insurance shall be written by a reputable insurance company authorized to do business in the State of Arkansas, shall list UNIVERSITY as an additional named insured thereunder, shall be endorsed to include product liability coverage and shall require thirty (30) calendar clays written notice to be given to the insured parties prior to any cancellation or material change thereof. The limits of such insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence with an aggregate of three million dollars ($3,000,000) for personal injury or death, and one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence with an aggregate of three million dollars ($3,000,000) for property damage, LICENSEE shall provide UNIVERSITY with Certificates of Insurance evidencing the same.
