Both Parties shall lend reasonable assistance to the other Party in the enforcement of Patent Rights.
  8.7.   Patent Marking.

  9.4.   Ownership. Licensee hereby acknowledges SuperGen’s exclusive ownership rights in the Dacogen Trademark, and accordingly agrees that MGI shall have a right to terminate this Agreement under Section 13.3(b) if, during or after the term of this Agreement, Licensee or its Affiliates challenge or assist others to challenge the Dacogen Trademark, or the registration thereof, or attempt to register any trademarks, marks or trade names confusingly similar to the Product Trademark without MGI’s written consent.
 
  9.5.   Recordation. In those countries where a trademark license must be or is desired by MGI or SuperGen to be recorded for a Product Trademark owned by MGI or SuperGen, MGI or SuperGen (as the case may be) will provide and record a separate trademark license for such Product Trademark, and the expense thereof shall be shared equally by MGI or SuperGen, as the case may be, and Licensee. Additionally, the Parties shall enter into and record registered user agreements, as requested by MGI or SuperGen, for Product Trademarks owned by MGI or SuperGen. Licensee shall cooperate in the preparation and execution of such documents.
 
  9.6.   Guidelines and Approval. To the extent that the Product Trademark used by Licensee is the Dacogen Trademark, all representations thereof that Licensee and its Affiliates intend to use shall first be submitted to MGI for approval of design, color, and other details or shall be exact copies of those used by MGI and shall in any event comply with usage guidelines as communicated by MGI from time to time. Additionally, representative promotional materials, packaging and Licensed Products that use the Dacogen Trademark shall be submitted to MGI by Licensee for MGI’s reasonable approval prior to their first use and prior to any subsequent change or addition to such promotional materials, provided that if MGI has not responded within twenty (20) business days after such submissions, MGI’s approval will be deemed to have been received. MGI shall have the right to monitor the quality of Licensed Products for which the Dacogen Trademark is used, as reasonably requested from time to time.

Licensee’s right to use the Dacogen Trademark shall terminate in each country of the Territory in which Licensee’s rights to distribute the Licensed Products expire or are terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Licensee shall cooperate in the cancellation of any trademark licenses, and registered user agreements, recorded or entered into in such countries and relating to the Dacogen Trademark. In the event of termination or expiration of this Agreement, Licensee shall provide for the complete transfer and assignment of all Product Trademarks Controlled by Licensee and used for sale of Licensed Product and any associated goodwill to MGI at Licensee’s cost and expense, unless such termination is as a result of material breach by MGI.

  15.6.   Injunctive Relief. Because of, among other things, the unique nature of the Licensed Patents, Product Improvements and Licensed Know-How which are the subject of this Agreement, the potential that lost opportunity costs may not be quantifiable, the Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement, were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.

      other Party informing such other Party of such intention and the issues to be resolved. Within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the DR Request, the other Party may, by written notice to counsel for the Party initiating DR, add additional issues to be resolved.
 
  (b)   Arbitration Procedures. A DR initiated under this Agreement will proceed in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association for Large, Complex Cases then in effect, insofar as such rules are not inconsistent with the provisions expressly set forth in this Agreement, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise. However, the Parties do not intend to submit the issue for resolution by such association unless they mutually agree to do so, in writing.
 
  (c)   Arbitrators. The arbitration shall be carried out by a single arbitrator who shall be a retired United States judge or justice and shall be selected by the Parties within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the DR Request in accordance with the procedure described below:
  (i.)   Qualifications. The Parties shall select the arbitrator as described below, which may but need not be selected from a list of arbitrators such as the CPR Panel of Distinguished Neutrals of the Center for Public Resources, subject to: (a) his/her availability and willingness to serve, (b) his/her availability to commence the arbitration within a reasonable period of time, (c) his/her agreement to charge fees and expenses that are reasonable under the circumstances, and (d) his/her commitment to render his/her award within the time periods provided in this Section 15.8.
 
  (ii.)   Selection. Each Party will exchange a list of ten (10) qualified arbitrators and in the event that both Parties agree on a single person then such person shall be the arbitrator. In submitting the ten names, each Party shall prioritize from one to ten the persons on their respective lists. In the event that there is more than one common name on the Parties’ lists, the person having the lowest combined priority number shall be selected as the arbitrator. The combined priority number shall be the sum of the order numbers assigned to that person by the Parties. Thus, if one person was MGI’s number two priority and Licensee’s number three priority, and another person was MGI’s number two priority and Licensee’s number four priority, the former would be appointed. If more than one person has the lowest combined priority number, the person for whom there is less difference between the order numbers assigned by the Parties shall be appointed. Thus, if one person was MGI’s number one priority and Licensee’s number four priority, and another person was MGI’s number two priority and Licensee’s number three priority, the latter person would be appointed. If this method does not produce an arbitrator, or if there are no common names, the Parties shall alternatively strike from the combined list until only one name remains, which shall be

      selected as the arbitrator. The Party to strike first shall be determined by the toss of a coin. In the event the arbitrator is unable to meet the requirements set forth in (i) above, then, in the event the first selected arbitrator was common to both lists and there was more than one common name on the Parties’ lists, the arbitrator having the next lowest combined priority number who is able and willing to serve pursuant to these requirements shall be selected. If there is no such individual, then the Parties shall use the alternate strike method set forth above. In the event an arbitrator selected by the alternate strike methodology is unable or unwilling to serve consistent with the requirements set forth above, then the alternate striking procedure shall be retraced in reverse order until the arbitrator is selected.
 
  (iii.)   Conduct. The arbitrator shall be neutral, disinterested, impartial, and independent of the Parties and others having any known interest in the outcome, and shall abide by the AAA/ABA Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes. There shall be no ex parte communications with the arbitrator either before or during the arbitration, relating to the dispute or issues involved in the dispute or the arbitrator’s views on any such issue.
 
  (iv.)   Interim Review. Either Party may apply to any court having jurisdiction hereof and seek preliminary injunctive relief until such time as the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved.
 
  (v.)   Location. Any arbitration under this Section 15.8 shall be conducted in New York, NY.
  (d)   Discovery Proceedings. The Parties shall have the right to undertake complete discovery, as contemplated by and pursuant to Federal Rules 26-37 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (with references to “court” in those Rules being considered references to the “arbitrator”) except as they may be modified by the following:
  (i.)   Within thirty (30) calendar days after selection of the arbitrator, each Party may serve on any other Party (a) interrogatories for the purpose of identification of documents and witnesses, (b) requests for admissions, and (c) requests for the production of documents and things. These discovery requests will be answered within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt.
 
  (ii.)   At any time but not more than six (6) months after the selection of the arbitrator, each Party may take depositions of employees or other witnesses of an opposing Party as a matter of right, subject to applicable limitations set forth in Rules 26-37.

Execution Copy
  (iii.)   Any Party may conduct depositions of its own witnesses which may be introduced as evidence at the arbitration hearing if the other Party was given fair opportunity to attend the deposition and cross-examine.
 
  (iv.)   As they become aware of new documents or information, including experts who may be called upon to testify, all Parties remain under a continuing obligation to provide documents upon which they rely, to supplement their responses, and to honor any informal agreements or understandings between the Parties regarding documents or information to be exchanged. The arbitrator at the hearing will not consider documents that have not been previously exchanged, unless agreed by the Parties or used for purposes of impeachment.
 
  (v.)   The Parties will promptly notify the arbitrator when an unresolved dispute exists regarding discovery issues. The arbitrator will discuss the matter with the Parties to determine the nature of the dispute and will attempt to resolve that dispute. If the arbitrator does not resolve the dispute, the arbitrators will arrange a conference concerning the dispute before the arbitrator by telephone, or in person, and the arbitrator will decide the dispute.
 
  (vi.)   All discovery shall be completed within six (6) months from selection of the arbitrator, unless extended by agreement of the Parties or by the arbitrator for good cause shown.
  (e)   Hearings and Proceedings. The arbitrator will determine the specific location within New York, NY and the date and time of the arbitration hearing(s) and other proceedings after consultation with the arbitrator and the Parties and will provide reasonable notice of the hearing(s) date and time. The arbitrator will make every effort to schedule the arbitration hearing within ninety (90) calendar days of the completion of all discovery, absent unusual circumstances.
  (i.)   The Parties may mutually agree on or the arbitrator for good cause may order a rescheduling of the hearing date.
 
  (ii.)   The arbitrator will ordinarily conduct the arbitration hearing in the manner set forth in this Section 15.8 except that (i) the Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply and (ii) the arbitrator shall render its decision in writing in the manner provided by Rule 52 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, including a full and precise statement of the factual and legal bases for such decision. If the AAA rules and the rules of this Section 15.8 conflict in any manner, the rules of this Section shall prevail. The arbitrator must hold an oral hearing, but may impose reasonable time limits on each phase of the proceeding and may limit testimony to exclude evidence that would be immaterial or unduly repetitive, provided that all Parties are afforded the opportunity to present material and

  (vii.)   When the arbitrator determines that all relevant and material evidence and arguments have been presented, the arbitrator will declare the hearing closed. The arbitrator may defer the closing of the hearing for up to twenty (20) calendar days to permit the Parties to submit post-hearing briefs and or to make closing arguments, as the arbitrator deems appropriate, before rendering an award.
 
  (viii.)   The arbitrator will render the award and its decisions pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 52 within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the closing of the hearing or, if an arbitration hearing has been waived, within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the arbitrator’s receiving all materials specified by the Parties. The decision and award of the arbitrator will constitute the Arbitration Award and will be binding on the Parties.
 
  (ix.)   The arbitrator shall, in rendering his or her decision and award, apply the substantive law of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions, except that the interpretation of and enforcement of this Section shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The costs of the winning Party and the fees of the arbitrator shall be paid by the losing Party as determined by the arbitrator. If the arbitrator is unable to designate a losing party, it shall so state and each Party shall bear its own costs and the fees of the arbitrator shall be split equally between the Parties.
  (f)   Award. The arbitrator is empowered to award any remedy allowed by law, including money damages, prejudgment interest and attorneys’ fees, and to grant final, complete, interim, or interlocutory relief, including injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, punitive or multiple damages may not be awarded.
 
  (g)   Legal Fees. Except as set forth in Section 15.8(e)(ix) above, each Party shall bear its own legal fees.
