Licensed Patents Immune Design, at its expense, shall have the first right to file, prosecute and maintain all Licensed Patents for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement using patent counsel reasonably approved by IDRI, including conducting any interferences, reexaminations, reissues, oppositions, or request for patent term extension relating thereto. Immune Design shall conduct such filing, prosecution and maintenance in good faith, taking into consideration IDRI’s retained rights hereunder, and consistent with reasonable business judgment, provide IDRI with all relevant or material documentation and proposed filing in the Territory so that IDRI may be concurrently and promptly informed of the continuing prosecution, and consult with IDRI with regards to Immune Design’s patent strategy with the Licensed Patents for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement. Licensed Patents in the name of IDRI shall remain in the name of IDRI. Immune Design shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ***, as applicable. To the extent such ***, Immune Design shall provide IDRI reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such prosecution efforts regarding such Licensed Patents in the Territory, and any IDRI comments will be reasonably considered in such prosecution efforts, and included to the extent affecting the IDRI Exclusive Field or IDRI Territory, as the case may be. If Immune Design determines in its sole discretion to abandon or not maintain any Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement in the Territory, then Immune Design shall promptly provide IDRI with written notice of such determination at least sixty (60) days before any deadline for taking action to avoid abandonment and shall provide IDRI with the right, opportunity and reasonable assistance to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in the applicable jurisdiction in IDRI’s sole discretion and at IDRI’s expense, provided that Immune Design shall provide such reasonable assistance at its own costs and expenses. If IDRI elects to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in such jurisdiction for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights, then Immune Design’s license rights to such Licensed Patent in such country will become nonexclusive in such country under such Licensed Patent (and/or patent application). If IDRI desires Immune Design to file, in a particular jurisdiction, a Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement that claims priority to another Licensed Patent for which Immune Design has any exclusive rights under this Agreement, IDRI shall provide written notice to Immune Design requesting that Immune Design file such patent application in such jurisdiction. If IDRI provides such written notice to Immune Design, Immune Design shall either (i) file and prosecute such patent application and maintain any patent issuing thereon in such jurisdiction and the Parties shall share the related costs and expenses (A) in countries *** on the basis of *** percent (***%) Immune Design: *** percent (***%) IDRI or (B) in countries within the IDRI Territory equally; or (ii) notify IDRI that Immune Design does not desire to file such patent application in such jurisdiction and provide IDRI with the opportunity to file and prosecute such patent application, provided that if IDRI files and prosecutes such patent application in such jurisdiction, then Immune Design’s license rights to such License Patent in such country will become nonexclusive in such country under such Licensed GLA Patent (and/or patent application). Immune Design shall be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred in connection with its own activities for filing, prosecuting and maintaining the Licensed Patents; IDRI shall be responsible for monitoring of such activities by IDRI.
Trademarks, Patents Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries possesses or has the right to use all of the patents, trademarks, trade names, service marks and copyrights, and applications therefor, and all technology, know-how, processes, methods and designs used in or necessary for the conduct of its business, without known conflict with the rights of others.
Intellectual Property; Licenses, Etc The Borrower and its Subsidiaries own, or possess the right to use, all of the trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, patents, patent rights, franchises, licenses and other intellectual property rights (collectively, “IP Rights”) that are reasonably necessary for the operation of their respective businesses, without conflict with the rights of any other Person. To the best knowledge of the Borrower, no slogan or other advertising device, product, process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary infringes upon any rights held by any other Person.

Patent Rights The State and the U. S. Department of Transportation shall have the royalty free, nonexclusive and irrevocable right to use and to authorize others to use any patents developed by the Engineer under this contract.
Intellectual Property Infringement a. If a third party makes a claim against Ordering Activity that the Appian Software directly infringes any patent, copyright, or trademark or misappropriate any trade secret (“IP Claim”); Contractor will to the extent permitted by 28 U.S.C. 516 (i) assist in defending Ordering Activity against the IP Claim at Contractor’s cost and expense, and (ii) pay all costs, damages and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) finally awarded against Ordering Activity by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to in a written settlement agreement signed by Contractor arising out of such IP Claim; provided that: (I) Ordering Activity promptly notifies Contractor in writing no later than sixty (60) days after Ordering Activity’s receipt of notification of a potential claim and (II) Ordering Activity provides Contractor, at Contractor’s request and expense, with the assistance, information and authority necessary to perform Contractor’s obligations under this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall have no liability for any claim of infringement based on (I) the use of a superseded or altered release of the Appian Software if the infringement would have been avoided by the use of a current unaltered release of the Appian Software, (II) the modification of the Appian Software, (III) the use of the Appian Software other than in accordance with the then current Documentation or this Agreement, or (IV) any materials or information provided to Contractor by Ordering Activity, for which Ordering Activity shall be solely responsible.
b. If the Appian Software is held to infringe or are believed by Contractor to infringe, Contractor shall have the option, at its expense, to (i) replace or modify the Appian Software to be non-infringing, or (ii) obtain for Ordering Activity a license to continue using the Appian Software. If it is not commercially reasonable to perform either of the foregoing options, then Contractor may terminate the license for the infringing Appian Software and refund the license fees paid for the Appian Software upon return of the Appian Software by Ordering Activity. This section states Contractor’s entire liability and Ordering Activity’s exclusive remedy for any claim of infringement; provided, however, if the license is for a cloud subscription described in Section B of this Agreement, then Appian shall only refund to Ordering Activity those license fees that were pre-paid and unearned at the time Appian terminates the license.
