To the extent that such sublicense results in any fees assessed by UTMDACC relating to the consideration paid by MBI to IntertechBio in connection with this Agreement, IntertechBio agrees to indemnify MBI for such fees, which may result in a reduction of the net consideration IntertechBio receives as a result of this Agreement.

Transfer of Data

Upon the request of MBI, IntertechBio agrees to transfer any and all data it may have regarding the License or the subject matter relating to the License (the “License Data”). Specifically, IntertechBio does hereby grant, set over, bargain, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to MBI, MBI’s successors and assigns, as of the Effective Date, all of IntertechBio’s right, title and interest in and to the License and the License Data, including, without limitation, and with respect to all such intangible assets as are included therein, all trade secrets, know-how, confidential information, and all other intellectual property rights of IntertechBio included in the License Data.

IntertechBio shall take all actions reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with the consummation of any initial public offering of MBI as requested by MBI (including the execution of customary lock-up agreements on terms no less favorable than the terms relating to the directors and executive officers of MBI).
