|
| 2.4.1 | UVA LVG will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify each Related Work. UVA LVG will disclose such Related Work to Licensee in writing promptly upon discovery.

|
| 2.4.2 | The Improvement Option is granted for a period of [**] days from the receipt by Licensee of written notice from UVA LVG of any Related Work or any extension thereof later agreed upon by the Parties (the “Improvement Option Period”).

If Licensee fails to deliver the Exercise Notice prior to the expiration of the Improvement Option Period, the Improvement Option shall expire with respect to such Related Work. |
|
| 2.4.3 | Upon timely delivery of the Exercise Notice, [**], and UVA LVG shall negotiate with Licensee to enter into an Amendment that adds the Related Work as Licensed Technology (“Improvement Amendment”), [**]. |
|
| 2.4.4 | Until termination or expiration of the Improvement Option Period, UVA LVG agrees that it will not offer or grant any rights to any third party relating to any Related Work. |
|
| 2.4.5 | In the event that Licensee fails to enter into an Improvement Amendment within the Improvement Option Period, or in the event the License Agreement is terminated for any reason, then all rights to the Related Work granted hereunder shall revert to UVA LVG for the sole benefit of UVA LVG. |
|
| 2.4.6 | UVA LVG hereby grants to Licensee an exclusive option (the “[**] Option”) to negotiate the terms of a license agreement in which UVA LVG grants to Licensee rights to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell and import the technology described in the invention disclosure titled [**]) and any patent applications, patents or Know How related thereto throughout on reasonable terms and conditions consistent with those set forth in this Agreement, to be negotiated between the Parties for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the Third Amendment Effective Date. |

UVA LVG hereby agrees to offer such terms and enter into such written agreement with only such non-financial modifications of a substantially formal nature which would be reasonably necessary to accommodate the functional and structural differences between Licensee and Sublicensee. Failure of a Sublicensee to enter into such an agreement within said one hundred eighty (180) days shall automatically result in the termination of the Sublicense and all rights granted thereunder.
2.6UVA shall not directly or indirectly solicit additional commercial licensees for the Licensed Technology in the Field, however, if a third party contacts UVA LVG and requests in writing to develop the Licensed Technology (“Third Party Contact”) for an application in the Field currently not being developed by Licensee (an “Undeveloped Application”), UVA LVG shall notify Licensee in writing of such contact.

prepaid, at the address for notices set forth below, and waives all objections to the validity of any such summons or legal fees.
| 21. | INFRINGEMENT |
21.1To the extent permitted by law, Licensee shall have the right during the term of this Agreement to commence an action for infringement of the Licensed Patents against any unlicensed third party for any infringement occurring within the Field, provided that Licensee shall provide UVA LVG thirty (30) days prior written notice of such infringement and of Licensee’s intent to file such action. UVA LVG shall have the right at its own expense to appear in such action by counsel of its own selection. If, as a matter of law, an infringement action must be prosecuted in the UVA LVG’s name, UVA LVG shall voluntarily participate in or pursue such action at Licensee’s expense (including without limitation reasonable and documented legal fees and out of pocket expenses). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an appearance or infringement action would subject UVA LVG to the jurisdiction of a foreign tribunal that could not otherwise assert jurisdiction over UVA LVG, then UVA LVG shall have the right to decline appear or otherwise pursue such action. Settlement of any action initiated and/or paid for by Licensee shall require the consent of UVA LVG and Licensee, which neither shall unreasonably withhold from the other.

If Licensee pays less than all such fees and expenses, Licensee’s share of any settlement amount or recovery for damages shall be reduced from eighty five percent (85%) in proportion to the percentage of fees and expense paid by UVA LVG (and/or unreimbursed by Licensee prior to such Settlement).
21.2If Licensee fails, within one hundred twenty (120) days after providing or receiving notice of a potential infringement, to institute an action against such infringer or notifies UVALVG that it does not plan to institute such action, then UVA LVG shall have the right to do so at its own expense. Licensee shall cooperate with UVA LVG in such effort including being joined as a party to such action if necessary at UVA LVG cost. UVA LVG shall be entitled to retain all damages or costs awarded in such action. Notwithstanding the pendency of any infringement (or other) claim or action by or against Licensee or UVA LVG, Licensee shall have no right to terminate or suspend (or escrow) payment of any amount payable to UVA LVG.
| 22. | notices |

| 27. | NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY |
