In addition, Celgene will provide Bluebird and its counsel with an opportunity to consult with Celgene and its counsel regarding Prosecution and Maintenance of any such Specific Patents, and Celgene will include or reflect all reasonable comments timely made by Bluebird and its counsel. Celgene acknowledges and agrees that Bluebird may grant similar rights to other exclusive Third Party licensees under any Patent within the Licensed IP that has claims Covering only a product that is not a Licensed Product (or its manufacture or use) and no other product (or its manufacture or use), other than Specific Patents. If the Parties cannot agree whether or not any Patent within the Licensed IP is a Specific Patent, or if Bluebird claims that the foregoing Prosecution and Maintenance activities would materially harm any other Patent within the Licensed IP or other Patents owned by Bluebird or any of its Affiliates, either of the Parties may refer such dispute to a mutually agreeable, disinterested, conflict-of-interest-free individual not affiliated or consulting with either Party and who has at least fifteen (15) years of patent prosecution experience in the pharmaceutical field. Any such arbitration will be conducted under the then-current rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the decision of the arbitrator will be final.

Neither Party may take any action with respect to the Prosecution or Maintenance of any Specific Patent without the consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If and at such time as Clovis no longer has an exclusive license to all of the claim scope of any such Specific Patent, then any such Specific Patent will no longer be treated as such hereunder (although it may remain a Subject Patent). Clovis acknowledges and agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇ may ▇▇▇▇▇ substantially similar rights to other exclusive Third Party licensees under any Subject Patents.

To the extent a Party wishes to prosecute a Joint Patent, the Parties will mutually agree upon which Party will have the first right to prosecute such Joint Patent, based on the contribution of each Party to such invention and each Party’s potential interest in products based upon such invention. If the Party having such first right does not wish to prosecute such Joint Patent, it shall inform the other Party promptly, but in any event no later than [***] after the Parties have agreed upon which Party had the first right to prosecute such Joint Patent.
