imposes any restrictions, limitations, responsibilities or obligations on the University without the Universitys express written consent.
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 9.2. | During the term of this Agreement, and following the term to the extent claims relate to activities during the term, Cortex will have the right to prosecute at its
own expense any such infringements of the Patent Rights and, in furtherance of such prosecution; Cortex may join the University as a party plaintiff in any such suit, without expense to the University. Cortex will have the right to defend at its own
expense any declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any of the Patent Rights, and, in furtherance thereof, Cortex may join the University as a party in any such suit, without expense to the University. The total cost
of any such action commenced or defended solely by Cortex will be borne by Cortex. Any recovery of damages by Cortex as a result of such action shall be applied first in satisfaction of any reasonable un-reimbursed expenses and attorneys fees
of Cortex relating to the action, and second in

| | satisfaction of reasonable un-reimbursed legal expenses and attorneys fees of the University, if any, relating to the action. The balance remaining
from any such recovery shall be distributed to Cortex, provided that Cortex will pay to the University such royalties as would otherwise be applicable under Article 3 hereof for that portion of Cortexs recovery attributable to lost sales,
payments or revenues.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 9.3. | If, within One Hundred Eighty (180) days after having been notified of any alleged infringement, Cortex has been unsuccessful in persuading the alleged infringer to desist, and
has not brought, or otherwise is not diligently prosecuting, an infringement action, or if Cortex notifies the University at any time prior thereto of its intention not to bring suit against any alleged infringer that has not been licensed by Cortex
under the Patent Rights, then, and in those events only, the University will have the right, but not the obligation, to prosecute at its own expense any infringement of the Patent Rights, and the University may, for such purposes, use the name of
Cortex as party plaintiff. Settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of the suit may be entered into by the University without the consent of Cortex, provided however that the University will not settle or compromise any
claim or action, including without limitation any declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any of the Patent Rights, in a manner that imposes any restrictions, limitations, responsibilities or obligations on Cortex
without Cortexs express written consent. The total cost of any such infringement action commenced or defended solely by the University will be borne by the University, and the University will keep any recovery or damages, for past infringement
or otherwise, derived therefrom.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 9.4. | In the event an action for infringement or any declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any of the Patent Rights, is brought against Cortex arising
from the practice of the Patent Rights, Cortex will have the right to defend such action and will be solely responsible for all attorneys fees, costs of defense, and liability arising out of that action. Cortex will indemnify and hold harmless the
University, its trustees, officers, directors, employees, agents, students and affiliates from and against any and all such claims, losses, damages or liabilities.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 9.5. | In the event that a declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any of the Patent Rights will be brought against Cortex , and Cortex declines to defend
the same or otherwise is not diligently defending such action, then, and in those events only, the University, at its option, will have the right to intervene and take over the sole defense of the action at its own expense (and without expense to
Cortex), and whereupon the University will keep any recovery and damages derived therefrom or from any counterclaims asserted therein.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 9.6. | In any infringement suit brought or Declaratory Judgment Action defended by either Party to protect any of the Patent Rights pursuant to this Agreement, the other Party will, at the
request and expense of the Party controlling such suit and at such Partys expense, cooperate in all respects and, to the extent possible, have its employees testify when requested and make available relevant records, papers, information,
samples, specimens, and the like.

|11. | Assignment
|--- | ----------

Cortex may assign or otherwise transfer
this Agreement and the license granted hereby and the rights acquired by it to and only to the assignee or transferee of Cortexs entire business or of that part of Cortexs business to which the license granted hereby directly relates,
provided, however, that such assignee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Cortex will give the University prompt notice of such assignment and transfer. If Cortex sells or otherwise transfers
its entire business or that part of its business to which the license granted hereby relates and the assignee or transferee does not agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement within fifteen (15) days of any such
request by the University, the University will have the sole right to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of termination to such transferee or assignee.



|12. | Non-use of Names
|--- | ----------------

Neither Party will use the names
of the other or of the inventors of such other Party, nor any adaptation thereof, in any advertising, promotional or sales activities without prior written consent from such other Party in each separate case, except that Cortex may state that it is
licensed by the University under one or more of the patents and patent applications within the Patent Rights. Each Party will hold the specific financial terms of this Agreement (including without limitation royalty rates and measurement mechanisms
and the payments called for upon milestone events) in confidence and will not disclose the same publicly without the prior consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. However, nothing herein will prohibit
any public disclosure that is required by any applicable law or regulation or by any competent governmental authority.



|13. | Dispute Resolution
|--- | ------------------

If a dispute arises between the Parties
relating to the interpretation or performance of this Agreement or the grounds for the termination thereof, the Parties agree to hold a meeting, attended by individuals with decision-making authority regarding the dispute, to attempt in good faith
to negotiate a resolution of the dispute prior to pursuing other available remedies. If within 30 days after such meeting, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute, such dispute shall be resolved through binding and
nonappealable arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in Orange County, California (if initiated by University) or in Edmonton, Alberta (if initiated by Cortex). Any such arbitration shall be conducted
before a single arbitrator to be appointed by the Parties from AAAs roster. If the Parties fail to agree to the identity of the single arbitrator, such appointment shall be made in accordance with AAA rules. There shall be limited discovery
prior to the arbitration hearing, subject to the discretion of the arbitrator, as follows: (a) exchange of witness lists and copies of documentary evidence and documents relating to or arising out of the issues to be arbitrated,
(b) depositions of all Party witnesses, and (c) such other depositions as may be allowed by the arbitrator upon a showing of good cause. The arbitrator shall make an award of costs, including counsel fees and the fees and expenses of the
arbitrator, based on the principle of favoring the prevailing Party to the extent that costs were reasonably

and necessarily incurred. The arbitrator shall decide the matter to be arbitrated pursuant hereto within 60 days after the appointment of the arbitrator.
Each Party shall be responsible for its own costs associated with any such arbitration.



|14. | Export Controls
|--- | ---------------

It is understood that the
University is subject to Canadian laws and regulations controlling the export of technical data, computer software, laboratory prototypes, and other commodities that may require a license from the applicable agency of the Government of Canada or may
require written assurances by Cortex that Cortex will not export data or commodities to certain foreign countries without prior approval of such agency. The University neither represents that a license will not be required nor that, if required, it
will be issued.



|15. | Notices
|--- | -------
