6.	OWNERSHIP; PATENTS.

6.1 Ownership.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c), Medistem shall retain all right, title and interest in and to the Patents and Know-how, regardless of which Party prepares and prosecutes the applications associated therewith, or maintains the patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights related thereto.

(c) Each Party agrees promptly to provide to the other Party a complete written disclosure of any Invention made by such Party. Medistem shall determine whether any Invention is patentable and whether filing a patent application is economically justifiable, and if so, shall proceed with the preparation and prosecution of a patent application covering any such Invention.

(d) Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party to execute all lawful papers and instruments, to make all rightful oaths and declarations and to provide consultation and assistance as may be necessary in the preparation, prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of all such patents and patent applications.

6.3 Patent Enforcement.

(a) If either Party learns of an infringement, unauthorized use, misappropriation or ownership claim or threatened infringement or other such claim (any of the foregoing, an “infringement”) by a Third Party with respect to any Licensed Technology within the Territory, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party and shall provide such other Party with available evidence of such infringement.

(b) Medistem shall have the first right, but not the duty, to institute patent infringement actions against Third Parties based on any Licensed Technology in the Territory. If Medistem (or its designee) does not secure actual cessation of such infringement or institute an infringement proceeding against an offending Third Party within 180 days of learning of such infringement, Licensee shall have the right, but not the duty, to institute such an action with respect to any infringement by such Third Party. The costs and expenses of any such action (including fees of attorneys and other professionals) shall be borne by the Party instituting the action, or, if the Parties elect to cooperate in instituting and maintaining such action, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Parties in such proportions as they may agree in writing. Each Party shall execute all necessary and proper documents, take such actions as shall be appropriate to allow the other Party to institute and prosecute such infringement actions and shall otherwise cooperate in the institution and prosecution of such actions (including, without limitation, consenting to being named as a nominal party thereto). Any award paid by Third Parties as a result of such an infringement action (whether by way of settlement or otherwise) shall be applied first to reimburse both Parties for all costs and expenses incurred by the Parties with respect to such action on a pro rata basis and, if after such reimbursement any funds shall remain from such award, they shall be allocated as follows: (i) if Medistem has instituted and maintained such action alone, Medistem shall be entitled to retain such remaining funds; (ii) if Licensee has instituted and maintained such action alone, Licensee shall be entitled to retain such remaining funds; or (iii) if the Parties have cooperated in instituting and maintaining such action, the Parties shall allocate such remaining funds between themselves in the same proportion as they have agreed to bear the expenses of instituting and maintaining such action.

6.4 Infringement Action by Third Parties.

(a) In the event of the institution or threatened institution of any suit by a Third Party against Licensee for patent infringement involving the sale, distribution or marketing of the Product in the Territory where such infringement claim is a result of the use of the Licensed Technology, Licensee shall promptly notify Medistem in writing of such suit. Unless otherwise covered by Section 9.3, Licensee shall have the right to defend such suit at its own expense and shall be responsible for all damages incurred as a result thereof. Medistem hereby agrees to assist and cooperate with Licensee, at Licensee’s reasonable request and expense, in the defense of such suit (including, without limitation, consenting to being named as a nominal party thereto). During the pendency of such action and thereafter, Licensee shall continue to make all payments due under this Agreement.

(b) Any award from such Third Party that arises as a result of such action described in Section 7.4(a) (whether by way of judgment, award, decree, settlement or otherwise) shall be allocated as follows: (i) if Licensee finally prevails, such award shall be applied first to reimburse Licensee for all costs and expenses incurred by it with respect to such action and, if after such reimbursement any funds shall remain from such award, Licensee shall be entitled to retain such excess funds; (ii) if Medistem indemnifies Licensee with respect to any such action and finally prevails, Medistem shall be entitled to retain such award; or (iii) if the Parties cooperate in the defense of any such action, the expenses of such defense shall be borne by the Parties in such proportions as they may agree in writing, and the Parties shall allocate between themselves any part of such award remaining after the reimbursement of such expenses, in the same proportion as they have agreed to bear the expenses of such defense.

7.	PUBLICATION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

7.1 Notification. Both Parties recognize that each may wish to publish the results of their work relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. However, both Parties also recognize the importance of acquiring patent protection. Consequently, subject to any applicable laws or regulations obligating either Party to do otherwise, any proposed publication by either Party shall comply with this Section 8.1. At least 30 days before a manuscript is to be submitted to a publisher, the publishing Party will provide the other party with a copy of the manuscript (or an English translation thereof). If the publishing Party wishes to make an oral presentation, it will provide the other party with a copy of the abstract (if one is submitted) at least 30 days before it is to be submitted. The publishing Party will also provide to the other party a copy of the text of the presentation, including all slides, posters, and any other visual aids, at least 30 days before the presentation is made.

7.2 Review. The non-disclosing party will review the manuscript, abstract, text or any other material provided under Section 8.1 to determine whether patentable subject matter is disclosed. The non-disclosing party will notify the publishing Party within 30 days of receipt of the proposed publication if the non-disclosing party, in good faith, determines that patentable subject matter is or may be disclosed, or if the non-disclosing party, in good faith, believes Confidential Information is or may be disclosed. If it is determined by the non-disclosing party that patent applications should be filed, the publishing Party shall delay its publication or presentation for a period not to exceed 90 days from the non-disclosing party’s receipt of the proposed publication or presentation to allow time for the filing of patent applications covering patentable subject matter. In the event that the delay needed to complete the filing of any necessary patent application will exceed the 90-day period, the non-disclosing party will discuss the need for obtaining an extension of the publication delay beyond the 90-day period. If it is determined in good faith by the non-disclosing party that Confidential Information or proprietary information is being disclosed, the Parties will consult in good faith to arrive at an agreement on mutually acceptable modifications to the proposed publication or presentation to avoid such disclosure.

7.3 Exclusions. Nothing in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 shall prevent either Party: (i) in connection with efforts to secure financing at any time during the term of this Agreement, from issuing statements as to achievements made, and the status of the work being done by the Parties, under this Agreement, so long as such statements do not jeopardize the ability to obtain patent protection on Inventions or disclose non-public technical or scientific Confidential Information; or (ii) from issuing statements that such Party determines to be necessary to comply with applicable law (including the disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Nasdaq or any other stock exchange on which securities issued by such Party are traded); provided, however, that, to the extent practicable under the circumstances, such Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of the proposed text of such statements sufficiently in advance of the scheduled release thereof to afford such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon the proposed text. In addition, the provisions of Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 shall not apply to Inventions solely owned by Licensee.

7.4 Confidentiality; Exceptions. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties agree that, during the term of this Agreement and for 5 years thereafter, the receiving Party, its Affiliates, its licensees and its Sublicensees shall, and shall ensure that their respective employees, officers and directors shall, keep completely confidential and not publish or otherwise disclose and not use for any purpose any information furnished to it or them by the other Party, its Affiliates, its licensees or its Sublicensees or developed under or in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent that it can be established by the receiving Party by competent proof that such information: (i) was already known to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure by the other Party; (ii) was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the receiving Party; (iii) became generally available to the public or was otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure and other than through any act or omission of the receiving Party in breach of this Agreement; or (iv) was disclosed to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, by a Third Party who had no obligation to the disclosing Party not to disclose such information to others (all such information to which none of the foregoing exceptions applies, “Confidential Information”).

7.5 Exceptions to Obligation. The restrictions contained in Section 8.4 shall not apply to Confidential Information that: (i) is submitted by the recipient to Regulatory Authorities to facilitate the issuance of Registrations for the Product, provided that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information; (ii) is provided by the recipient to Third Parties under confidentiality provisions at least as stringent as those in this Agreement, for consulting, manufacturing development, manufacturing, external testing, marketing trials and, with respect to Licensee, to Third Parties who are Sublicensees or other development/marketing partners of Licensee with respect to any of the subject matter of this Agreement; or (iii) is otherwise required to be disclosed in compliance with applicable laws or regulations or order by a court or other regulatory body having competent jurisdiction; provided that if a Party is required to make any such disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information such Party will, except where impracticable for necessary disclosures (for example, to physicians conducting studies or to health authorities), give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure requirement and, except to the extent inappropriate in the case of patent applications, will use its best efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed.

7.6 Limitations on Use. Each Party shall use, and cause each of its Affiliates, its licensees and its Sublicensees to use, any Confidential Information obtained by such Party from the other Party, its Affiliates, its licensees or its Sublicensees, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, solely in connection with the activities or transactions contemplated hereby.

7.7 Remedies. Each Party shall be entitled, in addition to any other right or remedy it may have, at law or in equity, to an injunction, without the posting of any bond or other security, enjoining or restraining the other Party, its Affiliates, its licensees and/or its Sublicensees from any violation or threatened violation of this Section 8.

8.	INDEMNIFICATION.

8.1 Indemnification by Licensee. Except for items covered by Medistem’s indemnity in Section 9.2, Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Medistem and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of or resulting from:

(a) negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions of Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees, if any, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, in connection with the work performed by Licensee under this Agreement and the Development Program;

(b) any tort claims of personal injury (including death) or property damage relating to or arising out of any manufacture, use or sale of the Product by Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees due to any negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions by, or strict liability of, Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, except, in each case, to the comparative extent such claim arose out of or resulted from the negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions of Medistem and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents; or

(c) any breach, or any claim which if true would constitute a breach, of any representation or warranty made by Licensee under Section 2.

8.2 Indemnification by Medistem. Medistem shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Licensee, its Affiliates, Sublicensees and distributors, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees of attorneys and other professionals) arising out of or resulting from:

(a) negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions of Medistem or its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, in connection with Medistem’s fulfillment of its obligations under Section 3;

(b) any tort claims of personal injury (including death) or property damage relating to or arising out of any manufacture, use or sale of the Product by Medistem or its Affiliates due to any negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions by, or strict liability of, Medistem or its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, except, in each case, to the comparative extent such claim arose out of or resulted from the negligence, recklessness or wrongful intentional acts or omissions of Licensee, its Affiliates or its Sublicensees, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents; or

(c) any breach, or any claim which if true would constitute a breach, of any representation or warranty made by Medistem under Section 2.

8.3 Notice of Indemnification. In the event that any person (an “indemnitee”) entitled to indemnification under Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 is seeking such indemnification, such indemnitee shall inform the indemnifying Party of the claim as soon as reasonably practicable after such indemnitee receives notice of such claim, shall permit the indemnifying Party to assume direction and control of the defense of the claim (including the sole right to settle it at the sole discretion of the indemnifying Party, provided that such settlement does not impose any obligation on, or otherwise adversely affect, the indemnitee or the other Party) and shall cooperate as requested (at the expense of the indemnifying Party) in the defense of the claim.

8.4 Complete Indemnification. As the Parties intend complete indemnification, all costs and expenses incurred by an indemnitee in connection with enforcement of Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 shall also be reimbursed by the indemnifying Party.

9.	TERM; TERMINATION.

9.1 Term. This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 10, shall remain in force.

9.2 Termination

(a) Termination for Cause. Either Party (the “non-breaching Party”) may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party (the “breaching Party”) shall have materially breached or defaulted in the performance of any of its material obligations hereunder, and such default shall have continued for 30 days after written notice thereof was provided to the breaching party by the non-breaching party (or, if such default cannot be cured within such 30-day period, if the breaching party does not commence and diligently continue actions to cure such default during such 30-day period). Any such termination shall become effective at the end of such 30-day period unless the breaching party has cured any such breach or default prior to the expiration of such 30-day period (or, if such default cannot be cured within such 30-day period, if the breaching party has commenced and diligently continued actions to cure such default).

FORCE MAJEURE.

10.1 Events of Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor be deemed to be in default under, or in breach of any provision of, this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any obligation of this Agreement when such failure or delay is due to force majeure, and without the fault or negligence of the Party so failing or delaying. For purposes of this Agreement, force majeure is defined as causes beyond the control of the Party, including, without limitation, acts of God; acts, regulations, or laws of any government; war; civil commotion; destruction of production facilities or materials by fire, flood, earthquake, explosion or storm; labor disturbances; epidemic; and failure of public utilities or common carriers. In such event Medistem or Licensee, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the other Party of such inability and of the period for which such inability is expected to continue. The Party giving such notice shall thereupon be excused from such of its obligations under this Agreement as it is thereby disabled from performing for so long as it is so disabled and the 30 days thereafter. To the extent possible, each Party shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any force majeure.
