9.1 SCI shall permit POINT to communicate with, develop strategy and provide instructions directly with patent counsel(s) acquiring, administering, maintaining and/or enforcing the Contract Proprietary, subject to POINT adhering to the conditions to which SCI would be obliged under terms of the Main-License.

Section 6. shall apply accordingly. Under no circumstances SCI is required to repay the cost reimbursement (neither entirely nor parts thereof).
9.3 If POINT does not longer wants to accept the costs of proprietary right filings, proceedings, issuance, and maintenance (particularly the annual fees), including all lawyers' fees and other expenses incurred in this context for a particular Contract Proprietary Right in a particular country and therefore intends not to initiate or no longer to maintain the particular Contract Proprietary Right in the particular country, it shall notify SCI of such in writing sufficiently in advance, that being at least 5 (five) months in advance. During such notice period POINT shall continue to bear all costs in this respect. Thereafter, that particular country in which Point discontinues support of the Contract Proprietary Right shall be removed from the definition of Contract Territory.
9.4 With the providing of the above named notification in section 9.3 by POINT, SCI in according with the Main-License, is basically free to otherwise exploit or use the respective Contract Proprietary Right(s). Such proprietary right(s)/proprietary rights application(s) shall no longer be Contract Proprietary Right(s) in terms of this License Agreement.
10.As if subject to amended section 9.2 (amended as set out above in paragraph 10), within 30 (thirty) days of the Amendment Effective Date, POINT shall reimburse SCI upon first demand for all such costs and fees, which arose in this context in the Contract Territory before the Effective Date.
