LGLS shall use patent counsel selected by LGLS and reasonably approved by GS for such prosecution and maintenance and LGLS shall bear all related Patent Expenses. GS shall cooperate fully with LGLS in all such matters, at GS’s expense.
(b) LGLS shall promptly disclose to GS the text of all LGLS Patents filed after the Effective Date as well as all information received after the Effective Date concerning the institution or possible institution of any interference, opposition, re-examination, reissue, revocation, nullification or any official proceeding involving an LGLS Patent or GLAXO Patent any where in the Territory. GS shall have the right to review all such pending applications and other proceedings and make recommendations to LGLS with respect thereto. LGLS shall keep GS promptly and fully informed of the course of patent prosecution and other proceedings and shall provide GS with copies of all substantive communications, search reports and Third Party observations submitted to or received from patent offices throughout the Territory. All such disclosures shall be considered “Confidential Information” subject to Article 6, above.
8.2 Abandonment. LGLS shall be free, on at least 30 days’ prior notice to GS, to abandon and stop funding Patent Expenses related to any of the LGLS Patents in any country in the Territory. In such event, GS may, at its sole option, assume and continue prosecution or maintenance of the LGLS Patents and GLAXO Patents in question, and shall thereafter bear all related Patent Expenses. Following such abandonment of a LGLS Patent by LGLS, LGLS shall have no further rights hereunder with respect to the LGLS Patent in question to the extent of such abandonment, and the term “LGLS Patents” shall be deemed to have been modified accordingly. LGLS shall not abandon any GLAXO Patent nor stop funding Patent Expenses related thereto without the prior consent of GS, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
8.3 Infringement. If either Party learns of an infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or GLAXO Patents in the Territory in the Field it shall promptly notify the other Party and shall provide the latter Party with all information reasonably available to the notifying Party evidencing such infringement or threatened infringement.
* | Confidential Treatment has been requested for the marked portions. |
14
Thereafter, the Parties shall in good faith consult and cooperate in abating such infringement or threatened infringement.
GS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS or GLAXO Patents in the Territory and in the Field, at GS’s sole expense. If GS requests LGLS to join GS as a party in such suit or action, LGLS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by GS, at GS’s expense. LGLS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by GS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance (the “Net Recovery”) shall be for the sole benefit of GS. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” with respect to the calendar quarter in which payment to GS was received, and royalties shall accordingly be paid on the amount of the Net Recovery exclusively at the rate(s) specified in Section 10.3, below. The Net Recovery shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestone 3 and in Section 10.2, below.
If GS fails to initiate suit or action within 90 days after first notice of infringement or threatened infringement of the LGLS Patents or the GLAXO Patents, or if having initiated such suit or action it thereafter diligently fails to prosecute such suit or action, LGLS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring, defend and maintain any appropriate suit or action for abatement of the infringement or threatened infringement, at LGLS’s sole expense. If LGLS requests GS to join LGLS as a party in such suit or action, GS shall execute all papers and perform such other acts as may be reasonably requested by LGLS, at LGLS’s expense. GS shall have the right to participate in any such suit or action using independent counsel, at its sole expense. Any amount recovered by LGLS as a result of such suit or action shall first be applied to reimburse each of the Parties, pro rata, for any costs or expenses incurred in bringing, defending and maintaining any such action. The balance shall be divided equally between the Parties. The amount of any recovery, net of the amounts necessary to reimburse the Parties as provided above shall be considered “Net Sales” for purposes of calculating annual Net Sales in accordance with Milestones 3 and in Section 10.2, below. If such recovery is apportioned by the court such that portions thereof are attributed to infringing activity in different calendar years, or if such apportionment of the recovery can otherwise be readily ascertained, then such apportionment shall govern as to the calendar year(s) in which Net Sales shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such Milestones. Otherwise, the amount of such recovery shall be apportioned equally over the number of calendar years in which infringement was found to have occurred (or in the event of a settlement, over the number of calendar years in which it was alleged to have occurred).
8.4 Third Party Claims. If a Third Party asserts that a patent or other right owned by it is infringed by the development, manufacture, import, use, sale or offer for sale of a Product by GS or its Affiliates or sub-licensees in the Territory in the Field, the Party first obtaining knowledge of such claim shall immediately provide the other Party notice of such claim and the related facts in reasonable detail. In such event, the Parties shall determine how best to control
15
the defense of any such claim. In the event the Parties cannot agree on the defense of such claim, such defense shall be controlled by GS with respect to sales of Product in the Territory and by LGLS with respect to Product sales outside of the Territory. In each such case, the other Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in such defense and to be represented in any such action by counsel of its choice at its sole discretion. With respect to any such claim, the Party entitled to control defense shall also have the right to control settlement of such claim; provided, however, that no settlement shall be entered into without the written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably.
8.5 Ownership. Subject to Section 9.2, below, each Party shall have and retain sole and exclusive title to all inventions, discoveries and know-how which are made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated solely by its employees or agents in the course of or as a result of this Agreement. Each Party shall own an equal undivided interest in all such inventions, discoveries and know-how made, conceived, reduced to practice or generated jointly by the employees or agents of one Party and the employees or agents of the other Party.
