2.4 [Reserved].

3.1 General Cooperation.  Seller shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) cooperate with Purchaser, at Purchaser’s request, to enable Purchaser to enjoy the fullest extent of the right, title and interest herein conveyed in the United States and other countries.  Purchaser shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Seller when cooperating with Purchaser.  Such cooperation by Seller (and its Affiliates) shall include prompt production of pertinent facts and documents, offering deposition testimony on behalf of Purchaser, offering trial testimony on behalf of Purchaser, attending trial and sitting at plaintiff’s table at trial, assistance in obtaining testimony by other, general and reasonable cooperation with any trial related to the infringement of the Purchased Patents, executing necessary documents, and providing other assistance reasonably requested by Purchaser.  Should a change in the law effect Purchaser’s ability to bring patent infringement litigation, Seller agrees to serve as the named plaintiff in any patent enforcement litigation in order to effectuate the purposes and goals of this Agreement. Purchaser will be responsible for its costs of recording the assignment of the Purchased Patents to Purchaser.  Seller further agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver all such additional instruments, and to do all such further acts, as may be necessary, advisable or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
 
3.2 Files and Prosecution Counsel.  Without limiting the obligations under Section 3.1, on the Effective Date, Seller shall: (a) deliver to Purchaser the fully executed Transfer Documents by Seller, which may be delivered as PDF of the original executed documents with the original documents to follow by express mail; (b) deliver to Purchaser the Patent Documents for each of the Purchased Patents and copies of each of the Potentially Relevant Licenses; and (c) instruct each outside counsel and foreign associate firm responsible for any Purchased Patent to send all copies of such files to Purchaser.  Seller shall be responsible for all invoices, expenses, and fees to outside prosecution counsel or agents relating to the Purchased Patents that were incurred prior to or on the Effective Date.  If reasonably necessary, Seller shall thereafter assist Purchaser in procuring all such files from all such outside counsel and foreign associate firms.  Seller shall also waive on behalf of Purchaser any attorney client privilege or attorney client conflict issues related to the transfer of information under this Section 3.2.  Seller’s waiver is only to Purchaser.

3.3 Limited Power of Attorney.  Seller irrevocably constitutes and appoints Purchaser, with full power of substitution, to be its true and lawful attorney, and in its name, place or stead, to execute, acknowledge, swear to and file, all instruments, conveyances, certificates, agreements and other documents, and to take any action which shall be necessary, appropriate or desirable to effectuate the transfer, or prosecution of the Purchased Patents in accordance herewith; provided, however, that such power shall be exercised by the Purchaser only if Seller fails to promptly take the necessary actions required hereunder to affect or record such transfer, or prosecution of such Purchased Patents following Purchaser’s reasonable request, and being given a reasonable opportunity to do so.  This power of attorney shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

4.2 Taxes.  Except for income or gross receipts taxes imposed on Purchaser, fees and taxes associated with recording assignment documents and except for maintenance fees due after the Effective Date, Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of, and shall pay when due, any federal, state, local, foreign or other tax, duty, levy, impost, fee, assessment or other governmental charge, including income, gross receipts, business, occupation, sales, stamp, value-added, excise (or similar transfer taxes), use, or other tax of any kind whatsoever and any premium, together with any interest, penalties, surcharges, fines and additions attributable to or imposed with respect to the foregoing (collectively “Taxes”) that may be payable upon the transfer of the Purchased Patents to Purchaser hereunder or the granting by Purchaser of the license under Article 2.

3

 
 
(b)  
Ownership.  Seller exclusively owns all right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Patents free of all liens, claims, licenses, covenants, encumbrances and interests (other than the Potentially Relevant Licenses).  Seller is not aware of any facts or circumstances that are likely to give rise to any defect, lien, or encumbrances on the Purchased Patents;
 
(c)  
Notice of Ownership Challenges.  Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has received any notice or claim (whether written, oral or otherwise) challenging the inventorship or Seller’s ownership of any Purchased Patent (in whole or in part) or suggesting that any third Party has any claim of legal or beneficial ownership with respect to any Purchased Patent;
 
(d)  
No Licenses Granted to Customers.

(k)  
Statutory Bars.  To the best of Seller’s knowledge and belief, no acts of Seller or any of its Affiliates, or any Party acting on behalf of or at the direction of Seller or any of its Affiliates, have invalidated or will invalidate any Purchased Patent under the laws of any jurisdiction (including under 35 U.S.C. §102(b)) including through (i) disclosure of the invention or circulation of a printed publication that describes the claimed invention, (ii) public use of the claimed invention, or (iii) sale or offer for sale of the claimed invention prior to the application for such patent;
