3.4.    Subsidiary Licenses.
(a)    Application to Subsidiaries. TiVo intends for this Agreement to extend to all of its Subsidiaries with respect to the applicable licenses granted by TiVo and its Subsidiaries to Arris and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement (except as provided in Section 8.2). TiVo agrees that, to the extent they are not already bound, TiVo shall ensure that all such Subsidiaries are bound by the terms of this Agreement.
(b)    Departing Subsidiaries.

If a Departing Subsidiary of TiVo holds, at or before the Departure Date, any Licensed Patent under which Arris and/or its Subsidiaries is licensed, such license shall continue for the Arris Term with respect to such Licensed Patent.
(c)    New Subsidiaries. If a Person becomes a Subsidiary of Arris after the Effective Date, then such Person, upon becoming a Subsidiary, is hereby granted the applicable license set forth in this Section 3 (except as provided in Section 8.2).

The obligations under this Section 3.6 may be satisfied by fixing (or having fixed) on such Standalone Products the word ‘patent’ or the abbreviation ‘pat.’ together with an address of a posting on the Internet, accessible to the public without charge for accessing the address, that associates the patented article with the number of the patent as permitted under 35 U.S.C. § 287(a). Compliance with this Section 3.6 will not be and not deemed to be an admission or agreement by Arris or any of its suppliers or customers that the assertion of TiVo that a particular Product is covered by a particular Licensed Patent is correct, advisable, or required, or that any such Product infringes any of such identified patents.
3.7.    No Territoriality. If a particular claim of a Licensed Patent would be exhausted by [***], then the Parties agree and acknowledge that [***].

In addition, in the event of any proceeding to obtain specific performance of this Agreement, the prevailing Party (as determined by the court) shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees as determined by the court.
