4.3Neither Party shall disclose the existence or substance of this Agreement, except as required by Applicable Laws.

Consultant hereby assigns to Radius all of Consultant's rights to and interest in any Data or Invention. To the extent that any of Radius’ ownership rights contemplated under this section are not perfected, fail to arise, revert or terminate by operation of law, then in lieu of such ownership rights, Consultant shall automatically grant to Radius an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid up, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple layers of sublicensees) license to all rights, title and interest in the Data or Inventions for which such ownership rights failed to arise, reverted or terminated by operation of law. Consultant shall take all actions necessary in order to perfect, maintain, and/or enforce (to “Protect”) Radius’ rights in the Data and Inventions, including without limitation, executing and delivering all requested applications, assignments and other documents. Consultant hereby permits Radius to execute and deliver any such documents on Consultant's behalf in the event Consultant fails to do so and accepts Radius as Consultant’s agent for the limited purpose of Protecting Radius’ ownership and/or exclusive rights.

5.3  During and after the Term of this Agreement, Consultant agrees to assist Radius, at Radius’ request, in preparing and prosecuting patent applications and patent extensions or in obtaining or maintaining other forms of intellectual property rights protection for Inventions which Radius elects to protect. Radius shall reimburse Consultant for any reasonable costs incurred in providing such assistance.

5.4  Without Radius’ prior written consent, Consultant shall not engage in any activities, on its own or in collaboration with a third party, or use any third party facilities or third party intellectual property in performing the Services which could result in claims of ownership to any Inventions being made by such third party.
