The Party proposing to publish or publicly present the Results (the “Publishing Party”) will submit a draft of any proposed manuscript, abstract or speech to the other Party (the “Non-Publishing Party”) for comments [***] prior to submission for publication or oral presentation. The Non-Publishing Party shall notify the Publishing Party in writing [***] of receipt of such draft whether such draft contains (i) information of the Non-Publishing Party which it considers to be confidential under the provisions of Section 11.1 of the Agreement, or (ii) information that if published would have an adverse effect on a patent application covering the subject matter of this Agreement. In any such notification, the Non-Publishing Party shall indicate with specificity its suggestions regarding the manner and degree to which the Publishing Party may disclose such information. In the case of item (i) above, no Party may publish Information of the other Party without its consent in violation of Section 11.1 of this Agreement. In the case of item (ii) above, the Non-Publishing Party may request a delay and the Publishing Party shall delay such publication or presentation, for a period [***], to permit the timely preparation and filing of a patent application or an application for a certificate of invention covering the information at issue. The Parties agree that authorship of any publication or presentation will be determined based on the customary standards then being applied in the relevant scientific journal or conference. The forgoing provisions shall not be interpreted to prevent the publication by a Party of information required by law to be published by that Party.
This Section 11.3 shall terminate with the termination of the Agreement, but the provisions of Section 11.1 hereof shall continue to govern the disclosure by one Party, whether by publication or otherwise, of Information of the other for two years after termination or expiration of this Agreement.”

This patent assignment (“Assignment of Patents”) is made and entered into as of November 19, 2013, between, VERTEX PHARMACEUTICALS INCORPORATED, a Massachusetts corporation with corporate offices at 130 Waverly Street, Cambridge, MA 02139-4242, United States of America, (“Assignor”) and JANSSEN PHARMACEUTICA NV, a company organized under the laws of Belgium with offices at Turnhoutseweg 30, 2340 Beerse, Belgium (“Assignee”) (each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”).
Whereas, Assignor and Assignee are parties to an amendment to a License, Development, Manufacturing and Commercialization Agreement between the Parties (“2013 Amendment”), which amendment is dated as of the date mentioned hereinabove, pursuant to which Assignor has agreed to convey legal and equitable ownership of certain assets to Assignee;
Whereas, subject to the terms and conditions in the 2013 Amendment, Assignor owns all right, title and interest in and to the patents and patent applications listed on Schedule A; Assignor desires to convey, deliver, transfer and assign to Assignee all of its right, title and interest in and to the Patents, and Assignee desires to take delivery of, accept and assume from Assignor the same.
Now, therefore, for the foregoing recited consideration and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows :
(a)Assignor does hereby convey, deliver, transfer and assign to Assignee all of its right, title and interest in and to (i) the patents and patent applications listed on Schedule A, (ii) all patent applications filed either from such patents, patent applications or from an application claiming priority from either of these, including divisionals, continuations, continuations-in-part, substitutions, provisionals, converted provisionals, and continued prosecution applications, (iii) any and all patents that have issued or in the future issue from the foregoing patent applications described in clauses (i) and (ii), including utility models, petty patents, design patents and certificates of invention, and (iv) any and all extensions or restorations by existing or future extension- or restoration mechanisms, including revalidations, reissues, reexaminations, supplemental examinations, inter partes reviews, post-grant reviews, pre-grant and post-grant oppositions, limitations, and other existing or future post-issuance proceedings, and extensions (including any supplementary protection certificates and any other patent term restoration mechanisms) of the foregoing patents and patent applications described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), (collectively, clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) called “Patents”), in each case, the same to be held and enjoyed by Assignee for its own use and benefit of the Patents that may be granted or extended, as fully and entirely as the same would have been held and enjoyed by Assignor had this assignment not been made, including all benefits, privileges, causes of action and remedies relating to, or otherwise derived from, such Patents, including the right to any damages accrued for infringement of the Patents, and all goodwill associated with such Patents; and
