Enforcement of Patent Rights 2.10.1 If either party hereto learns at any time of any infringement or threatened infringement by any other person of any enforceable Patent Rights owned by or licensed to the other party after the Effective Date, that party shall give notice of that infringement or threatened infringement to the other party. The parties shall then consult together as to the best course of action to pursue in response to such potential infringement, but neither party shall be obligated to institute legal action at its own expense. A good faith failure by one party to provide such notice to the other party shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement and shall not give rise to a right of action by other party. 2.10.2 In the event that the parties do not reach an agreement as contemplated by Section 2.10.1 hereof as to the best course of action to pursue with respect to a potential infringement (i) Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute legal action, through counsel of its own choosing and at its sole expense, to restrain any infringement or threatened infringement, or to recover damages therefor, of its enforceable Patent Rights, and (ii) Licensee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute legal action, through counsel of its own choosing and at its sole expense, to restrain any infringement or threatened infringement, or to recover damages therefor, of its enforceable Patent Rights in the Licensed Field. The party that bears the expenses of pursuing legal action against a third party infringer shall be entitled to any damages, lost profits or other monies recovered by judgment, decree, settlement, arbitration or otherwise, resulting from such legal action. 2.10.3 In the event that one party elects to institute legal action against a third party infringer, the other party shall fully cooperate in the prosecution of such action including joining as a party in suit when necessary to acquire standing to institute legal action pursuant to this Section 2.10; provided, however, that such other party shall be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation including its reasonable legal fees and expenses.
