5.4                         Notwithstanding the provisions in Article 5.2(2), the patent application to any Business-related Technology referred thereto shall be made in accordance with the following:

 

(1)                            If Party A intends to make a patent application for any Business-related Technology, it shall obtain the prior written consent of Party B.

 

(2)                          Party A may only make an independent patent application or transfer the patent application right to third parties if Party B gives up its right to purchase the patent application right pertaining to the Business-related Technology. When Party A transfers the aforesaid patent application right to a third party, Party A shall guarantee the third party’s full compliance and performance of the duties and obligations that shall be complied with or performed by Party A hereunder; further, the terms of the patent application right transfer (including but not limited to the transfer price) offered to the third party shall not be more favorable than the terms offered to Party B in accordance with Article 5.4(3) below.

 

(3)                            During the term of this Agreement, Party B shall have the right to request Party A to make a patent application for such Business-related Technology at any time, and decide at its own discretion whether to purchase such application right.
