Confidential If Inserm Transfert or Licensee comes to believe in good faith that Patent Rights are being infringed by a third party, the Party first having knowledge of such infringement shall promptly notify the other. In any such case, the Parties shall discuss how best to proceed. If an action is necessary and efficient, the Co-Owners shall have the right, but no obligation, to bring any legal action in their name and at their own expense. The Co-Owners shall retain all damages and costs recovered in connection therewith. In such a case, Licensee will nevertheless retain the right, if applicable, to join any such action initiated by the Co-Owners at its own expense to obtain indemnification for damages which Licensee alone have incurred. Should Inserm Transfert and the Co-Owners decide not to bring an infringement action and if Licensee is the sole licensee on the Patent Rights, Licensee shall have the right, but no obligation, to prosecute at its own expense any action against third party infringement of the Patent Rights, absent any response or action formulated by Inserm Transfert and/or the Co-Owners within thirty (30) days of its absent any response or action formulated by Inserm Transfert and/or the Co-Owners within thirty (30) days of its after written notice to Inserm Transfert of its intention to do so. The license granted pursuant to this Agreement expressly includes the rights for Licensee to defend any actions against the Patent Rights, such as action to declare the Patent Rights invalid or non-infringed, the right to ▇▇▇ for infringement of the Patent Rights and/or the right to recover any applicable damages resulting from infringement of the Patent Rights and to pursue any other remedies available, including injunctions, in accordance with article 5.3. The Parties shall provide each other with the documents and elements necessary to the conduct of the above mentioned actions. Licensee shall keep Inserm Transfert reasonably appraised of all developments in any action, and will seek the prior approval of Inserm Transfert on any substantive submissions or positions taken in the litigation that might affect the scope, validity or enforceability of the Patent Rights. If an action initiated by Licensee obliges the Co-Owners to take part in an invalidity action or counterclaim for invalidity of the Patent Rights, Licensee shall pay all the legal costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred by Inserm Transfert and/or the Co-Owners. Licensee will not sign with the defendant any settlement or agreement which would limit the scope of the Patent Rights without the prior written approval of Inserm Transfert, which may not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. Damages and sums received by Licensee in the frame of infringement actions shall be, after deduction of the proceedings costs, considered as Net Sales and subject to the applicable royalty payments. The Co-Owners shall in any event have the right, but no obligation, to join in the action initiated by Licensee.
