INFRINGEMENT

8.1 With respect to any Patent Rights that are exclusively licensed to Licensee pursuant to this Agreement, Licensee shall have the right, within the Territory, to prosecute in its own name and at its own expense any infringement of such patent, so long as such license is exclusive at the time of the commencement of such action. The Foundation agrees to notify Licensee promptly of each infringement of such patents of which the Foundation is or becomes aware. Before Licensee commences an action with respect to any infringement of such patents, Licensee shall give careful consideration to the views of the Foundation and to potential effects on the public interest in making its decision whether or not to sue.

(a) If Licensee elects to commence an action as described above, Foundation may, to the extent permitted by law, elect to join as a party in that action. Regardless of whether the Foundation elects to join as a party, the Foundation shall cooperate fully with Licensee in connection with any such action.

(b) If the Foundation elects to join as a party pursuant to subsection (a), the Foundation shall jointly control the action with Licensee.

If such fifty percent (50%) of Licensee’s expenses and costs exceeds the amount of royalties deducted by Licensee for any calendar year, Licensee may to that extent reduce the royalties due to the Foundation from Licensee in succeeding calendar years, but never by more than fifty percent (50%) of the total royalty due in any one year with respect to the patent(s) subject to suit.

8.3 No settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the suit may be entered into without the prior written consent of the Foundation, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

8.4 Recoveries or reimbursements from actions commenced pursuant to this Article shall first be applied to reimburse Licensee and the Foundation for litigation costs not paid from royalties and then to reimburse the Foundation for royalties deducted by Licensee pursuant to Section 8.2. Licensee and the Foundation shall share any remaining recoveries or reimbursements equally.

8.5 If Licensee elects not to exercise its right to prosecute an infringement of the Patent Rights pursuant to this Article, the Foundation may do so at its own expense, controlling such action and retaining all recoveries therefrom. Licensee shall cooperate fully with the Foundation in connection with any such action.

8.6 Without limiting the generality of Section 8.5, the Foundation may, at its election and by notice to Licensee, establish a time limit of ninety (90) days for Licensee to decide whether to prosecute any infringement of which the Foundation is or becomes aware. If, by the end of such ninety (90)-day period, Licensee has not commenced such an action, the Foundation may prosecute such an infringement at its own expense, controlling such action and retaining all recoveries therefrom. With respect to any such infringement action prosecuted by the Foundation in good faith, Licensee shall pay over to Foundation any payments (whether or not designated as “royalties”) made by the alleged infringer to Licensee under any existing or future sublicense authorizing Licensed Products or Licensed Processes, up to the amount of the Foundation’s unreimbursed litigation expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees).

Licensee shall cooperate fully with the Foundation in connection with any such action.

8.8 During the exclusive period of the Licensee’s license hereunder, Licensee shall have the sole right, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, to sublicense any alleged infringer within the Territory for the Field.

9.2 In the event of a New Invention, inventorship shall be determined in accordance with the patent laws of the United States of America. All New Inventions conceived or first actually reduced to practice solely by an employee of a Party shall belong to the employee (or to the employee’s employer if the employee and the employer have so agreed). Two or more Parties shall jointly own a New Invention if each of such Parties employed at least one inventor thereof at the time of its conception or first actual reduction to practice, provided that each Party has acquired the interest of its respective employee(s) in the New Invention. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party(ies) to obtain inventor signatures on patent applications, assignments, and other documents required to secure the Party(ies) rights in New Inventions. Each Party shall have the primary responsibility for filing patent or other intellectual property applications on the New Inventions of its own employee(s) in a timely manner, at its own expense, and after consultation with the other Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by mutual agreement, the Parties may identify which Party shall file a patent application on any New Invention. The Parties will consult and mutually determine a filing strategy for jointly owned New Inventions.

9.3 For New Inventions solely owned by Licensee, Licensee grants to the U.S. Government and Foundation a nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, world-wide, paid-up license to practice the New Invention or have the New Invention practiced throughout the world by or on behalf of the U.S. Government or the Foundation for research or other Government purposes.

9.4 The Parties intend that this Agreement qualify as a joint research agreement for the purposes of the Cooperative Research and Technology Enhancement Act of 2004, 35 U.S.C. § 103(c) (hereinafter “CREATE Act”). However, in the event of any New Invention, the Parties agree not to invoke the CREATE Act without the prior express written consent of the other Party.

Additionally, any rights or remedies arising out of a breach or violation of any terms of this Agreement will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. The expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not discharge either Party from any obligation that it owes to the other Party by reason of any loss, cost, damage, expense, liability, or contractual duty that occurs or arises (or the circumstances, events, or basis of which occurs or arises) prior to such expiration or termination, and shall not affect the right of either Party to institute or maintain any action for damages relating to any breach of this Agreement by the other Party prior to the date of termination. It is the intent of the Parties that any such obligation owed by a Party to the other Party arising before the date of expiration or termination (whether the same shall be known or unknown at such date, or whether the circumstances, events, or basis of the same shall be known or unknown at such date), including royalty obligations (computed in accordance with Article III) on sales made or ordered prior to the date of termination or expiration, indemnification obligations, and confidentiality obligations, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(i) Participation in Drafting. Both Parties and their respective legal counsel have participated, or had the opportunity to participate, in the drafting of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be construed simply and according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either Party.

11.2 No Foundation Warranty.

(a) The Foundation does not warrant the validity of the Patent Rights licensed hereunder and makes no representations whatsoever with regard to the scope of the licensed Patent Rights or that such Patent Rights may be exploited by Licensee or any sublicensee without infringing other patents.

(b) THE FOUNDATION EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL IMPLIED AND EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE PATENT RIGHTS, OR INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY THE FOUNDATION, OR OF THE LICENSED PROCESSES OR LICENSED PRODUCTS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

11.3 Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE FOUNDATION BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR EXPECTED SAVINGS OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSSES, OR FOR INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE FOUNDATION KNOWS OR SHOULD KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE FOUNDATION’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY LICENSEE TO THE FOUNDATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

11.4 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Foundation and its current and former directors, board members, trustees, officers, employees, and agents and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages, deficiencies, losses or obligations of any kind or nature (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses of litigation) (collectively “Claims”) based upon, arising out of, or otherwise relating to this Agreement, including without limitation any cause of action relating to product liability concerning any product, process, or service made, used, or sold pursuant to any right or license granted under this Agreement.

Norwell-Foundation License FINAL 19

(b) Licensee shall, at its own expense, provide attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Foundation to defend against any actions brought or filed against any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to the subject of indemnity contained herein, whether or not such actions are rightfully brought.

(c) Beginning at the time any such product, process or service is being commercially distributed or sold (other than for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals) by Licensee or by any sublicensee or agent of Licensee, Licensee shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance in amounts not less than $2,000,000 per incident and $4,000,000 annual aggregate and naming the Indemnitees as additional insureds. During clinical trials of any such product, process, or service, Licensee shall, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain commercial general liability insurance in such equal or lesser amount as the Foundation shall require, naming the Indemnitees as additional insureds. Such commercial general liability insurance shall provide (i) product liability coverage and (ii) broad form contractual liability coverage for Licensee’s indemnification under this Agreement. If Licensee elects to self-insure all or part of the limits described above (including deductibles or retentions that are in excess of $250,000 annual aggregate) such self-insurance program must be acceptable to the Foundation in its sole discretion. The minimum amounts of insurance coverage required shall not be construed to create a limitation of Licensee’s liability with respect to its indemnification under this Agreement.

(d) Licensee shall provide the Foundation with written evidence of such insurance upon request of the Foundation. Licensee shall provide the Foundation with written notice at least fifteen (15) days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal, or material change in such insurance; if Licensee does not obtain replacement insurance providing comparable coverage within such fifteen (15) day period, the Foundation shall have the right to terminate this Agreement effective at the end of such fifteen (15) day period without notice or any additional waiting periods.

(e) Licensee shall maintain such commercial general liability insurance beyond the expiration or termination of this Agreement during (i) the period that any product, process, or service, relating to, or developed pursuant to, this Agreement is being commercially distributed or sold by Licensee or by a sublicensee or agent of Licensee and (ii) a reasonable period after the period referred to in (e)(i) above, which period in no event shall be less than fifteen (15) years.

Norwell-Foundation License FINAL 20

11.6 No Assignment. Without the prior written approval of the Foundation in each instance, neither this Agreement nor the rights granted hereunder shall be transferred or assigned in whole or in part by Licensee to any person whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise. This Agreement shall be binding upon the respective successors, legal representatives, and assignees of the Foundation and Licensee.

11.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, as to all matters, including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance, and remedies, irrespective of any contrary choice of law that otherwise would be applicable under the choice of laws principles of any jurisdiction.

11.8 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including United States laws and regulations controlling exports. Licensee agrees that it will be solely responsible for any violation of applicable laws or regulations by Licensee or its Affiliates or sublicensees, and that it will defend and hold the Foundation harmless in the event of any legal action of any nature occasioned by such violation.

11.9 Regulatory Approvals; Patent Markings. Licensee agrees (i) to obtain all regulatory approvals required for the manufacture and sale of Licensed Products and Licensed Processes and (ii) to utilize appropriate patent marking on such Licensed Products. Licensee also agrees to register or record this Agreement as is required by law or regulation in any country where the license is in effect.

11.10 Confidential Information and Intellectual Property. Except as specifically required to comply with obligations set forth in this Agreement, neither Party shall be obligated to disclose or furnish to the other Party any Confidential Information of such first Party or any confidential or proprietary information, technology, or intellectual property of any third party in such first Party’s possession or control. If, however, the Parties have heretofore entered or hereafter enter into a confidential information nondisclosure agreement or similar agreement (the “NDA”), neither Party may terminate the NDA prior to the termination or expiration of this Agreement. If the Parties have not entered into an NDA, each Party agrees, for the greater of a period of five (5) years after each disclosure or during the pendency of this Agreement, to maintain in confidence all Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party and to protect such Confidential Information by using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as the receiving Party uses to protect its own similar confidential information.

11.11 Headings. The article, section, and other headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not intended to describe, interpret, define, or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Agreement.

Norwell-Foundation License FINAL 21

11.12 Counterpart Execution. This Agreement and any modification or amendment thereof may be executed in counterparts, both of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when such counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party.

11.13 Waivers; Remedies Generally. The observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (whether generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by the Party entitled to enforce such term, but any such waiver will be effective only if in a writing signed by the Party against which such waiver is to be asserted. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure or delay of either Party in exercising any power, right, or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or remedy, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or remedy. A waiver by either Party shall be limited to the specific instance in which it is given and, therefore, any waiver by either Party of any obligation of the other Party under or breach by the other Party of this Agreement or of any power, right, or remedy of the waiving Party shall not be a waiver of any other obligation or further or future performance of the same obligation, of any other or succeeding breach, of any other or further exercise of such power, right, or remedy or any other power, right, or remedy.

11.14 Severability. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement shall be judicially unenforceable in any one or more jurisdictions, such provision shall not be affected with respect to any other jurisdiction, each provision with respect to each jurisdiction being construed as several and independent. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is, to any extent, declared or found to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, then both Parties will be relieved of all obligations arising under such term or provision, but only to the extent that such term or provision is illegal, unenforceable, or void, it being the intent and agreement of the Parties that this Agreement will be deemed amended by modifying such term or provision to the extent necessary to make it legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if that is not possible, by substituting therefor another term or provision that is legal and enforceable and achieves the same objective. If the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected by such declaration or finding and is capable of substantial performance, then each term and provision not so affected will be enforced to the extent permitted by law. If necessary to effect the intent of the Parties, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement to replace the unenforceable language with enforceable language that as closely as possible reflects such intent and to amend any other term or provision thereby rendered incapable of substantial performance or otherwise affected thereby to the extent necessary to permit the practical realization, insofar as legally possible, of the intent of the Parties.

11.15 Relationship of the Parties; Disclaimer of Agency.

(a) Independent Contractors. In entering into and carrying out this Agreement, the Parties will be acting solely as independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement creates, has created, or will create any partnership, joint venture, or other business association between the Parties, nor any duties or responsibilities of partners, venturers, or members of a business association.

Norwell-Foundation License FINAL 22

(b) No Agency. Except for provisions in this Agreement expressly authorizing one Party to act for the other, this Agreement will not constitute either Party as a legal representative or agent of the other Party, nor will either Party have the right or authority to assume, create, or incur any liability or any obligation of any kind, expressed or implied, against or in the name or on behalf of the other Party unless otherwise expressly permitted by such Party.

11.16 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The representations, warranties, covenants, and undertakings contained in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the Parties, their sublicensees, and the Parties’ permitted successors and assigns and shall not be construed as creating any third party beneficiaries of this Agreement or as conferring any rights whatsoever on any third party.

11.17 Notices. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Party receiving notice, any notice, demand, or other communication required or permitted to be given by either Party under any provision of this Agreement must be in writing, in the English language, and mailed (certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested) or sent by hand or overnight courier, or by facsimile (with acknowledgment received), charges prepaid and addressed to the intended recipient at such Party’s address set forth below, or to such other address or number as such Party may from time to time specify by notice to the other Party as provided in this Section. All notices and other communications given in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement will be deemed to have been given and received (i) when actually delivered by hand, by mail, or by courier, or (ii) when transmitted by facsimile (with acknowledgment received and a copy of such notice is sent no later than the next Business Day by a reliable overnight or two-day courier service, with acknowledgment of receipt).

11.18 Disputes. In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement or the breach thereof, the Parties shall try to settle such conflict amicably between themselves. Subject to the limitation stated in the final sentence of this Section, any such conflict that the Parties are unable to resolve promptly shall be settled through arbitration conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The demand for arbitration shall be filed within a reasonable time after the controversy or claim has arisen, and in no event after the date upon which institution of legal proceedings based on such controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. Such arbitration shall be held in Montgomery County, Maryland. The award through arbitration shall be final and binding. Either Party may enter any such award in a court having jurisdiction or may make application to such court for judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may, without recourse to arbitration, assert against the other Party a third-party claim or cross-claim in any action brought by a third party, to which the subject matter of this Agreement may be relevant.

11.19 Entire Agreement; Modifications. This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and replaces any prior oral or written communications between the Parties. There are no conditions, understandings, agreements, representations, or warranties, express or implied, that are not specified herein, and neither Party shall be obligated by any condition or representation other than those expressly stated herein or as may be subsequently agreed by the Parties in writing. Any purported modification or amendment of the express terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only if contained in a written instrument signed by each Party.

11.20 Publications. Prior to a Party’s submission for publication or presentation technical developments and/or research findings related to the Patent Rights licensed hereunder, the publishing or presenting Party shall provide the other Party with at least thirty (30) days for review and comment upon the manuscript or other material proposed for publication. In addition, if requested by the other Party, the publishing or presenting Party will withhold such submission for publication or presentation for an additional thirty (30) days to allow for filing a patent application or taking such measures, as the Party deems appropriate to establish and preserve its proprietary rights in the information in the manuscript or presentation.
