on jointly owned Joint Inventions in the Territory (or to settle or otherwise secure the abatement of such Product Infringement) prior to the earlier of: (X) [***] following STA’s receipt or delivery of the notice under Section 7.7.2 or (Y) [***] before the deadline, if any, set forth in the Applicable Laws for the filing of such actions, PUMA shall have the right to bring and control any such action, [***] and by counsel of its own choice.  The same first right shall correspondingly apply in reverse in favor of PUMA for a Patent on a jointly owned Joint Invention outside the Territory.  For clarity, PUMA retains the sole right to enforce Licensed Patents outside the Field in the Territory, and outside the Territory.





	
 
	
7.7.4
	
Cooperation.  Each Party shall provide to the enforcing Party reasonable assistance in such enforcement, at such enforcing Party’s request and expense, including joining such action as a party plaintiff, if required by applicable Laws to pursue such action.  The enforcing Party shall keep the other Party regularly informed of the status and progress of such enforcement efforts, shall reasonably consider the other Party’s comments on any such efforts, and shall seek consent of the other Party in any important aspects of such enforcement, including determination of litigation strategy and filing of material papers to the competent court, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The non-enforcing Party shall be entitled to separate representation in such matter [***], but such Party shall at all times cooperate fully with the enforcing Party. Neither Party shall have the right to settle any patent infringement litigation under this Section 7.7 in a manner that diminishes or adversely affects the rights or interests of the other Party without the prior written consent of such other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.





	
 
	
7.7.5
	
Expenses and Recoveries.  The enforcing Party bringing a claim, suit or action under Section 7.7.3 shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred by such Party as a result of such claim, suit or action.  If such Party recovers monetary damages in such claim, suit or action, such recovery shall be allocated first to the reimbursement of any expenses incurred by the Parties in such litigation (including, for this purpose, a reasonable allocation of expenses of internal counsel), and any remaining amounts shall be shared as follows: 





	
 
	
(a)
	
in respect of Licensed Patents in the Territory: (i) if PUMA is the enforcing Party:  the remaining amount will be shared [***] to PUMA and [***] to STA, or (ii) if STA is the enforcing Party: the remaining amount will be [***];

The Parties agree to cooperate reasonably with Pfizer with respect to matters described in this Section 7.8 to the extent required by the Pfizer License Agreement.





	
 
	
7.8.2
	
If a Licensed Patent becomes the subject of any proceeding commenced in the Territory by a Third Party in connection with an opposition, action for declaratory judgment, nullity action, interference or other attack upon the validity, title or enforceability thereof, then PUMA shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to control such defense [***] using counsel of its own choice.  If PUMA decides that it does not wish to defend against such action, it shall notify STA reasonably in advance of all applicable deadlines, and STA shall thereafter have the right, but not the obligation, to assume defense of such action [***].





	
 
	
7.8.3
	
The Party controlling any defense under this Section 7.8 shall permit the non-controlling Party to participate in the proceedings to the extent permissible under applicable Laws and to be represented by its own counsel [***].  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Party controlling any enforcement action pursuant to Section 7.7 shall also have the sole right to control the response to any attack on the validity, title, or enforceability of a Patent that is asserted by the alleged infringer(s) as a counterclaim or affirmative defense in such action.  Neither Party shall have the right to settle any proceeding under this Section 7.8 in a manner that adversely affects, or diminishes the rights or interests of, the other Party without the prior written consent of such other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.





	
 
	
7.8.4
	
Each Party shall assist and cooperate with the other Party as such other Party may reasonably request from time to time in connection with its activities set forth in Section 7.8.2, including by providing access to relevant documents and other evidence and making its employees available at reasonable business hours; provided that neither Party shall be required to disclose legally privileged information unless and until procedures reasonably acceptable to such Party are in place to protect such privilege.

with any such defense or claim or counterclaim, the controlling Party shall consider in good faith any comments from the other Party and shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of any steps taken, and shall provide copies of all documents filed, in connection with such defense, claim or counterclaim.  In connection with the activities set forth in Section 7.8.2, each Party shall consult with the other as to the strategy for the defense of the Licensed Patents.  





	
 
	
7.8.5
	
Patent Marking.  STA shall mark the package containing the Licensed Product marketed and sold by STA or its Affiliates or their Sublicensees or subcontractors hereunder in accordance with all Applicable Laws relating to patent marking.





	
 
	
7.8.6
	
Infringement of Third Party Rights.  If any Licensed Product used or sold by STA or its Affiliates or their Sublicensees or subcontractors becomes the subject of a Third Party’s claim or assertion of infringement of such Third Party’s Patent granted by a jurisdiction within the Territory, STA shall promptly notify PUMA, and the Parties shall, if so advised by their respective legal counsels, agree on and enter into a “common interest agreement” wherein the Parties agree to their shared, mutual interest in the outcome of such potential dispute, and thereafter, the Parties shall promptly meet to consider the claim or assertion and the appropriate course of action.  Unless agreed otherwise by the Parties, STA shall be solely responsible for defending against any such claim or assertion, [***].  STA shall keep PUMA fully informed of such claim and its defense, and shall reasonably consider and seek to accommodate any timely comments of PUMA with respect thereto.





	
 
	
7.8.7
	
Third Party Licenses.  If, [***], the Commercialization of the Licensed Product in the Field in the Territory by STA, its Sublicensees or its or their respective Affiliates infringes or misappropriates any Patent or any intellectual property right of a Third Party in the Territory, such that STA, its Sublicensees or its or their respective Affiliates cannot Commercialize the Licensed Product in the Territory without infringing the Patent or intellectual property right of such Third Party, then STA shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to take the lead on negotiating the terms of each such license for the Territory in consultation with PUMA, and [***]; provided that such terms shall not in a manner that diminishes the rights or interests of either Party without the prior written consent of such Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

9.4
	
Press Releases.  As soon as practicable on or shortly following the Effective Date, the Parties shall issue the joint press release set forth as Exhibit D to this Agreement.

Consequently, except for disclosures permitted pursuant to Section 9.2, a Party, its employees or consultants, wishing to make a publication shall deliver to the other Party a copy of the proposed written publication or an outline of an oral disclosure in English at least [***] prior to submission for publication or presentation.  The reviewing Party shall have the right (a) to propose modifications to the publication or presentation for Licensed Patent reasons, trade secret reasons or business reasons and (b) to request a reasonable delay in publication or presentation in order to protect patentable information.  If the reviewing Party requests a delay, the publishing Party shall delay submission or presentation for a period of [***] to enable patent applications protecting each Party's rights in such information to be filed.  Upon expiration of such [***], the publishing Party shall be free to proceed with the publication or presentation.  If the reviewing Party requests modifications to the publication or presentation, the publishing Party shall edit such publication to prevent disclosure of trade secret or proprietary business information prior to submission of the publication or presentation.
