2. GRANT

2.1 Subject to the limitations and other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement including the license granted to the United States Government set forth in the Background and in Paragraph 2.3.1, The Regents grants to the Licensee a license under The Regents’ rights in and to the IP Rights to make, use, Sell, offer for Sale and import (and under Copyright Rights, to reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute, perform, and display) Licensed Products and Licensed Services and to practice Licensed Methods, in the United States and throughout the world except in other countries where The Regents may not lawfully grant such licenses, only in the Field of Use.

2.2 Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the license granted under Patent Rights, and Copyright Rights in Paragraph 2.1 is exclusive. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the license granted under Property Rights in Paragraph 2.1 is non-exclusive;

2.3 The license granted in Paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2 is subject to the following:

2.3.1 The obligations to the United States Government under 35 U.S.C. §§ 200-212 and all applicable governmental implementing regulations, as amended from time to time, including the obligation to report on the utilization of the Invention as set forth in 37 CFR. § 401.14(h), and all applicable provisions of any license to the United States Government executed by The Regents after the Effective Date under 37 CFR. § 401.14(h), and

2.3.2 the National Institutes of Health “Principles and Guidelines for Recipients of NIH Research Grants and Contracts on Obtaining and Disseminating Biomedical Research Resources,” 64 F.R. 72090 (Dec. 23, 1999), as amended from time to time.

2.4 The license granted in Paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2 is limited to methods and products that are within the Field of Use. For other methods and products, the Licensee has no license under this Agreement.

Ownership of software developed by Licensee will be determined in accordance with U.S. copyright law, except that The Regents retains Copyright Rights in any Software contained in such software. Licensee will own any Modifications, except that The Regents retains ownership of the Copyright Rights and Property Rights in the underlying Software (i.e., therefore, a Derivative Work that contains Modifications may only be copied, modified, or distributed pursuant to a valid license under both The Regents’ Copyright Rights and Property Rights in the underlying Software and Licensee’s copyright in the Modifications).

 

12


2.6 The Regents reserves and retains the right (and the rights granted to the Licensee in this Agreement shall be limited accordingly) to make, use and practice the Invention, the Property Rights, and any technology relating to any of the foregoing not solely owned by the Licensee and to make and use any Products and to practice any process that is the subject of the Copyright Rights, Property Rights or the Patent Rights (and to grant any of the foregoing rights to other educational and non-profit institutions) for educational and research purposes only, including without limitation, any sponsored research performed for or on behalf of commercial entities and including publication and other communication of any research results. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the Invention, Software and any materials made from the Property Rights or Software and any technology relating to any of the foregoing not solely owned by the Licensee are not the subject of the exclusive license under the Patent Rights or Copyright Rights granted to the Licensee hereunder, The Regents shall be free to make, use, Sell, offer to Sell, import, practice and otherwise commercialize and exploit (including to transfer, license to, or have exercised by, third parties) for any purpose whatsoever and in its sole discretion, such Invention, Property Rights or Software and any materials made from the Property Rights or Software, technology and any Products or processes that are the subject of any of the foregoing (in each case solely to the extent such manufacture, use, Sale, import, practice, or exploitation would not require a valid license under, or title to, the Patents Rights, Property Rights or Copyright Rights licensed exclusively to Licensee hereunder to avoid infringing such Patent Rights or Copyright Rights or violating the exclusive license to such Property Rights).

2.7 Because the Invention was made under funding provided by the United States Government, Licensed Products, the Invention, and any products embodying the Invention sold in the United States will be substantially manufactured in the United States.

3. SUBLICENSES

3.1 The Regents also grants to the Licensee the right to sublicense to third parties (including to Affiliates and Joint Ventures) the rights granted to the Licensee hereunder, with no right to further sublicense except as provided below, as long as the Licensee has current exclusive rights thereto under this Agreement (or, with respect to End User License Agreements, Service

 

13


Provider License Agreements, and Distributor License Agreements, as long as the Licensee has exclusive or non-exclusive rights under this Agreement).

In addition, all such sublicense agreements, except for End User License Agreements, Distributor License Agreements, and Service Provider License Agreements, shall include all of the rights of, and will require the performance of all the obligations due to, The Regents (and, if applicable, the United States Government and other sponsors), other than those rights and obligations specified in Article 5 (License Issue Fee), Article 6 (License Maintenance Fee), Paragraph 8 (Royalty) and Paragraphs 23.4 and 23.8 (reimbursement of Patent Prosecution Costs). For avoidance of doubt, the provisions set forth in Paragraph 26.1 (Indemnification) shall apply to End-User License Agreements, Distributor License Agreements, and Service Provider License Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensee shall have no right to permit any Sublicensee and no Sublicensee shall have any right to further sublicense any of the rights granted to the Licensee hereunder, except that (a) each Sublicensee (except Affiliates and Joint Ventures) may sublicense to (i) its affiliates as Affiliate is defined in Paragraph 1.1 with Sublicensee substituted for licensee in the definition, to the extent needed for the development and commercialization of Licensed Products or Licensed Services in accordance with this Agreement and (ii) Service Providers and independent contractors pursuant to a Service Provider License Agreement to the extent necessary for such Service Provider to perform services solely for the benefit of such Sublicensee and (b) Distributors may grant End Users a Sublicense to a Licensed Product or Licensed Service pursuant to an End User License Agreement. Also, for the avoidance of doubt, Affiliates and Joint Ventures shall have no licenses under this Agreement unless such Affiliates and Joint Ventures are granted a sublicense. For the purposes of this Agreement, the operations of all Sublicensees shall be deemed to be the operations of the Licensee, for which the Licensee shall be responsible, except that Licensee shall not be responsible for an End User’s use of a Licensed Product or Licensed Service in breach of the terms of the applicable End User License Agreement provided Licensee uses all remedies available under the law to enforce the terms of such End User License Agreement.

3.2 Except with respect to End User License Agreements, Distributor License Agreements, and Service Provider License Agreements, the Licensee will notify The Regents of each sublicense granted hereunder and will provide The Regents with a complete copy of each sublicense (along with a summary of the material terms of each such sublicense) and each amendment to such sublicense within [***] ([***]) days of issuance of such sublicense or such amendment. The Licensee will be responsible for paying to The Regents all Sublicense Fees owed due to Sublicensee payments (and the cash equivalent of any consideration due) and activities. The Licensee will require Sublicensees to provide it with all copies of all progress reports and royalty reports that Licensee needs to meet its reporting obligations to The Regents.

3.3 If Licensee licenses patent rights assigned to or otherwise acquired by it (“Licensee’s Patent Rights”), and it believes, in good faith, that the recipient of such license will infringe Patent Rights in practicing the Licensee’s Patent Rights, then the Licensee will not separately grant a license to such recipient under Licensee’s Patent Rights without concurrently granting a sublicense under Patent Rights on the terms required under this Agreement.

3.4 Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, all sublicenses, except for End User License Agreements, shall automatically terminate, unless The Regents, at its sole discretion, agrees in writing to an assignment to The Regents of any sublicense. In the event of termination of this Agreement and if The Regents accepts assignment of any sublicense, The Regents will not be bound by any grant of rights broader than or will not be required to perform any obligation other than those rights and obligations contained in this Agreement. Moreover, The Regents will have the sole right to modify each such assigned sublicense to include all of the rights of The Regents (and, if applicable, the United States Government and other sponsors) that are contained in this Agreement, including the payment of Earned Fees and Royalties directly to The Regents by the Sublicensee as if it were the Licensee at a rate that is no lower than the rate set forth in Article 8 (Earned Fees and Royalties) in accordance with Article 4 (Payment Terms). For purposes of clarity, End User License Agreements shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms, provided however that the Licensee shall remain obligated to enforce such End User License Agreement or cause them to be enforced.

4. PAYMENT TERMS

4.1 Royalties will accrue in each country for the duration set forth in Paragraph 8.3 and will be payable to The Regents quarterly in accordance with Section 4.2 based on the Net Sales which have accrued to Licensee and any Distributers during the applicable quarter. Sublicense Fees with respect to any Attributed Income shall be paid to The Regents quarterly in accordance with Section 4.2 based on the Attributed Income received by Licensee during the applicable quarter. 4.2 The Licensee will pay to The Regents all Earned Fees and Royalties and other consideration payable to The Regents quarterly on or before February 28 (for the calendar quarter ending December 31), May 31 (for the calendar quarter ending March 31), August 31 (for the calendar quarter ending June 30) and November 30 (for the calendar quarter ending September 30) of each calendar year. Each payment will be for Earned Fees and Royalties and other consideration which has accrued within the Licensee’s most recently completed calendar quarter.

4.2 All consideration due The Regents will be payable and will be made in United States dollars by check payable to “The Regents of the University of California” or by wire transfer to an account designated by The Regents. The Licensee is responsible for all bank or other transfer charges. When there are Net Sales for Licensed Products or Licensed Services Sold for monies other than United States dollars, and when the Attributed Income is paid in a currency other than United States dollars, then the Earned Fees and Royalties and other consideration will first be determined in the foreign currency of the country in which such amounts were paid and then converted into equivalent United States dollars. The exchange rate will be the average exchange rate quoted in the The Wall Street Journal during the last [***] ([***]) days of the reporting period. 4.4 Sublicense Fees on Attributed Income and Royalties on Net Sales of Licensed Products or Licensed Services and other consideration accrued in, any country outside the United States may not be reduced by any taxes, fees or other charges imposed by the government of such country, except those taxes, fees and charges allowed under the provisions of Paragraph 1.24 (Net Sales). 4.5 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 30 (Force Majeure) if at any time legal restrictions prevent the prompt remittance of Earned Fees and Royalties or other consideration owed to The Regents by the Licensee with respect to any country where a sublicense is issued or a Licensed Product or Licensed Service is Sold or otherwise exploited, then the Licensee shall convert the amount owed to The Regents into United States dollars and will pay The Regents directly from another source of funds in order to remit the entire amount owed to The Regents.

 

16


4.3 In the event that any patent or claim thereof included within the Patent Rights is held invalid in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction and last resort and from which no appeal has or can be taken, then all obligation to pay Earned Fees and Royalties based on that patent or claim or any claim patentably indistinct therefrom will cease as of the date of final decision. The Licensee will not, however, be relieved from paying any Earned Fees and Royalties that accrued before such final decision and the Licensee shall be obligated to pay the full amount of Earned Fees and Royalties due hereunder to the extent that The Regents licenses one or more Valid Claims within the Patent Rights to the Licensee with respect to Licensed Products or Licensed Services or to the extent that Licensed Products or Licensed Services are based on Copyright Rights or Property Rights.

4.4 In the event that a claim of a patent application in Patent Rights has been pending for more than [***] ([***]) years and as set forth in Paragraph 1.37 is no longer considered a Valid Claim, the obligation to pay Earned Fees and Royalties based on that patent claim will cease as of the date the claim is no longer considered a Valid Claim (“Invalidation Date”). However, if such claim subsequently issues, it will again be considered a Valid Claim and Licensee will be obligated to pay Earned Fees and Royalties and interest based on such claim from the Invalidation Date forward.

4.5 No Earned Fees and Royalties will be collected or paid hereunder to The Regents on Licensed Products or Licensed Services Sold to, or otherwise exploited for, the account of the United States Government as provided for in the license to the United States Government. The Licensee and its Sublicensees will reduce the amount charged for Licensed Products or Licensed Services Sold to, or otherwise exploited by, the United States Government by an amount equal to the Earned Fee and Royalty for such Licensed Products or Licensed Services otherwise due The Regents. Such reduction in Earned Fees and Royalties will be in addition to any other reductions in price required by the United States Government. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee shall not be obligated to require Application Stores to identify United Sates Government Sales and apply a different price to such Sales.

 

17


4.6 In the event that royalties, fees, reimbursements for Patent Prosecution Costs or other monies owed to The Regents are not received by The Regents when due, the Licensee will pay to The Regents interest at a rate of [***] percent ([***]%) simple interest [***]. Such interest will be calculated from the date payment was due until actually received by The Regents. Such accrual of interest will be in addition to and not in lieu of, enforcement of any other rights of The Regents due to such late payment.

5. LICENSE ISSUE FEE

The Licensee will pay to The Regents a license issue fee of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) within [***] ([***]) days of the Effective Date. This fee is inclusive of a [***] dollar credit as per the terms of the Option Agreement. This fee is non-refundable, non- cancelable and is not an advance or otherwise creditable against any royalties or other payments required to be paid under the terms of this Agreement.

6. LICENSE MAINTENANCE FEE

The Licensee will also pay to The Regents a license maintenance fee of five thousand dollars ($5,000) beginning on the [***]-year anniversary of the Effective Date and continuing annually on each anniversary of the Effective Date. The license maintenance fee is not due on any anniversary of the Effective Date if on that date, the Licensee is Selling or otherwise exploiting Licensed Products or Licensed Services and is paying an Earned Fee and Royalty to The Regents on the Net Sales of such Licensed Product or Licensed Services. The license maintenance fee is non-refundable and is not an advance or otherwise creditable against any royalties or other payments required to be paid under the terms of this Agreement.

7. PAYMENTS ON SUBLICENSES

7.1 The Licensee will pay to The Regents the following non-refundable and non-creditable sublicense fees (“Sublicense Fees”):

7.1.1 [***] percent ([***]%) of all Attributed Income received from a Sublicensee pursuant to a sublicense agreement entered into with such Sublicensee prior to Licensee’s development of a prototype specific to the Licensed Product to be made, used, Sold or otherwise exploited under the sublicense;

 

18


7.1.2 [***] percent ([***]%) of all Attributed Income received from a Sublicensee pursuant to a sublicense agreement entered into with such Sublicensee (a) subsequent to Licensee’s development of a prototype specific to the Licensed Product to be made, used, Sold, or otherwise exploited under the sublicense and (b) prior to Licensee’s development of a prototype specific to the Licensed Product to be made, used, Sold, or otherwise exploited under the sublicense which either (i) has been tested in an IRB approved study (or a study approved by any other regulatory body) of at least [***] ([***]) subjects from a well-defined disease population enrolled in the study, such disease population to be the target population for the Licensed Product made, used, Sold or otherwise exploited under the sublicense, or (ii) if direct to consumer, is a Beta-Version of the specific Licensed Product, to be made, used, Sold or otherwise exploited under the sublicense; and

7.1.3 [***] percent ([***]%) of all Attributed Income received from a Sublicensee pursuant to a sublicense agreement entered into with such Sublicensee subsequent to Licensee’s development of a prototype specific to the Licensed Product to be made, used, Sold or otherwise exploited under the sublicense which prototype either (a) has been tested in an IRB approved study (or a study approved by any other regulatory body) of at least [***] ([***]) subjects from a well-defined disease population enrolled in the study, such disease population to be the target population for the Licensed Product made, used, Sold, or otherwise exploited under the sublicense or (b) if direct to consumer, is a Beta-Version of the specific Licensed Product, to be made, used, Sold or otherwise exploited under the sublicense.

7.1.4 For purposes of clarity, if a prototype specific to a Licensed Product covered by a sublicense is developed prior to entering into such sublicense agreement, then the fact that such sublicense agreement also covers (and that the Sublicensee Sells under such sublicense agreement) subsequent releases, revisions, updates, and enhancements of such Licensed Product that (a) are specific to the same disease or condition that the prototype was originally designed for or (b) are not New Products (collectively, “Subsequent Versions”) that occur after the development of a prototype of the original version of the Licensed Product and after the date the sublicense agreement is entered, shall not result in Licensee paying a higher Sublicense Fee for the Sale of such Subsequent Versions under the sublicense agreement due to such Subsequent Versions having been developed after the entering the sublicense agreement. For example, a Sublicensee may develop Subsequent Versions of a Licensed Product to measure or improve executive function.

 

19


7.1.5 Notwithstanding the forgoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, The Regents hereby acknowledge and agree that any sublicense of the game that Licensee is developing as of the Effective Date shall not be subject to the [***] percent ([***]%) Sublicense Fee tier set forth in Section 7.1.1 hereof.

8. ROYALTIES

8.1 The Licensee will also pay to The Regents a Royalty of (i) [***] percent ([***]%) of the Net Sales derived from each non-Clinically-Tested Licensed Product, Licensed Method or Licensed Service by the Licensee or any Distributor and [***] percent ([***]%) of the Net Sales of each Clinically-Tested Licensed Product, Licensed Method or Licensed Service by the Licensee or any Distributor. For purposes of clarity, if a Licensed Product is Clinically-Tested, then Sales of the use of the corresponding Licensed Method and Licensed Services shall be deemed Clinically- Tested too.

8.2 In the event it becomes necessary for Licensee to obtain a license to patent rights owned by an unaffiliated third party (defined as a third party which is not an Affiliate, Joint Venture, or further Sublicensee of Licensee or of such Sublicensee) in order to make, use, copy, modify, or Sell, a particular Licensed Product, Licensed Method or Licensed Service and the royalty due to the unaffiliated third party(ies) exceeds [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales of such Licensed Product or Licensed Service in a calendar quarter,, then Licensee, The Regents, and such unaffiliated third party(ies) will evenly bear the amount of such Third Party Royalty(ies) that exceeds [***] percent ([***]%) of Net Sales of such Licensed Product or Licensed Service, provided that the Earned Fee and Royalty due to The Regents under Paragraph 8.1 shall not be reduced to less than [***] percent ([***]%) in the calendar quarter.

8.3 Earned Fees and Royalties on each Licensed Product or Licensed Service under Section 8.1 shall commence in each country as of the date of the first commercial Sale of any Licensed Product or Licensed Service in such country and shall terminate in such country on a country-by-country basis on the later of (i) expiration or abandonment of all issued patents and filed patent applications within the Patent Rights or (ii) on the [***] ([***]) anniversary of the first commercial Sale of each Licensed Product or Licensed Service in such country.

9.1.10 [***] dollars ($[***]) upon Net Sales in a calendar year in excess of [***].

9.2 Each milestone payment will be payable when the applicable milestone event has been achieved regardless whether it was Licensee who achieved the milestone or an Affiliate, Joint Venture, or Sublicensee, except as provided in Section 9.3 below. For purposes of Paragraphs 9.1.7 through 9.1.10, Net Sales shall include all amounts received by Licensee from its Sublicensees for Sales made by such Sublicensees, regardless whether such payments would not otherwise be deemed “Net Sales” due to being Attributed Income.

9.3 If a Sublicensee should trigger any of the milestones set forth in Paragraphs 10.1.1—10.1.5, then the milestone payment for such achieved milestone shall equal the difference between (i) the milestone payment specified in Section 9.1 above, minus (ii) the Sublicense Fees paid or due to The Regents based upon Licensee’s receipt of achievement-based milestones from such Sublicensee (i.e. specifically excluding Sublicense Fees based upon an upfront fee or royalties on net sales of such Sublicensee) for the [*] period prior to the date on which the milestone event occurred. If such Sublicense Fees are greater than or equal to the milestone payment, then no payment shall be due to The Regents due to achievement of such milestone (other than payment of the Sublicense Fee in accordance with Section 7).

11.3 The right of first offer in this Subsection 4.1 shall not be applicable to (i) Exempted Securities (as defined in the Licensee’s Certificate of Incorporation); and (ii) shares of Licensee’s Common Stock issued in any initial public offering registered with a governmental entity.

23.9 The Regents may file, prosecute or maintain patent applications or patents at its own expense in any country in which the Licensee has not elected to file, prosecute or maintain patent applications or patents in accordance with this Article 23 (Patent Prosecution and Maintenance) and those applications, resultant patents and patents will not be subject to this Agreement.

25. PATENT AND COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

25.1 Notice. In the event either party (in the case of The Regents to the extent of the actual knowledge of the licensing professional responsible for the administration of this Agreement) becomes aware of any possible or actual material infringement of any Patent Rights or Copyright Rights, that party shall promptly notify the other party and provide it with details regarding such Infringement. During the period in which, and in the jurisdiction where, the Licensee has exclusive rights under this Agreement, neither The Regents nor the Licensee will notify a possible infringer of infringement or put such infringer on notice of the existence of any Patent Rights without first obtaining consent of the other. If the Licensee puts such infringer on notice of the existence of any Patent Rights with respect to such infringement without first obtaining the written consent of The Regents and if a declaratory judgment action is filed by such infringer against The Regents, then Licensee’s right to initiate a suit against such infringer for infringement under Paragraph 25.2 below will terminate immediately without the obligation of The Regents to provide notice to the Licensee. Both The Regents and the Licensee will use their diligent efforts to cooperate with each other to terminate such infringement without litigation.

 

35


25.2 Suit by Licensee. If infringing activity of potential commercial significance by the infringer has not been abated within [***] ([***]) days following the date the Infringement Notice takes effect, then Licensee shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to take action in the prosecution, prevention, or termination of any Infringement. The Licensee may not join The Regents as a party in a suit initiated by the Licensee without The Regents’ prior written consent, such consent subject to the approval of the UC Board of Regents. Before Licensee commences an action with respect to any Infringement, Licensee shall consider in good faith the views of The Regents in making its decision whether to sue. Should Licensee elect to bring suit against an infringer, Licensee shall keep The Regents reasonably informed of the progress of the action and shall give The Regents a reasonable opportunity in advance to consult with Licensee and offer its views about major decisions affecting the litigation. Licensee shall give careful consideration to those views, but shall have the right to control the action; provided, however, that if Licensee fails to defend in good faith the validity and/or enforceability of the Patent Rights in the action or, or if Licensee’s license to a Valid Claim in the suit terminates, The Regents may elect to take control of the action pursuant to Section 25.3. Should Licensee elect to bring suit against an infringer and The Regents is joined as party plaintiff in any such suit, The Regents shall have the right to approve the counsel selected by Licensee to represent Licensee and The Regents, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The expenses of such suit or suits that Licensee elects to bring, including any expenses of The Regents incurred at the request of Licensee in conjunction with the prosecution of such suits or the settlement thereof, shall be paid for entirely by Licensee and Licensee shall hold The Regents free, clear and harmless from and against any and all costs of such litigation, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by The Regents at the request of Licensee. Licensee shall not compromise or settle such litigation without the prior written consent of The Regents, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that such written consent of The Regents shall only be required if such compromise or settlement materially adversely affects The Regents’ right, title or interest in and to the Patent Rights or Copyright Rights or requires The Regents to admit any liability, pay any money or take any action that would have a material adverse effect on The Regents. Any recovery or settlement received in connection with any suit will first be shared by The Regents and the Licensee equally to cover any litigation costs each incurred and next shall be paid to The Regents or the Licensee to cover any litigation costs it incurred in excess of the litigation costs of the other. In any suit Initiated by the Licensee, any recovery in excess of litigation costs will be shared between Licensee and The Regents as follows: (a) for any recovery other than amounts paid for willfill

 

36


infringement: (i) The Regents will receive [***] percent ([***]%) of the recovery if The Regents was not a party in the litigation and did not incur any litigation costs, (ii) The Regents will receive [***] percent ([***]%) of the recovery if The Regents was a party in the litigation whether joined as a party under the provisions of Paragraph 25.2 or otherwise, but The Regents did not incur any litigation costs, and (iii) The Regents will receive [***] percent ([***]%) of the recovery if The Regents incurred any litigation costs in connection with the litigation; and (b) for any recovery for willful infringement, The Regents will receive [***] percent ([***]%) of the recovery. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensee shall have the right to extend any or all of its rights under this Article 25 to one or more Sublicensee(s).

25.3 Suit by The Regents. If Licensee does not take action in the prosecution, prevention, or termination of any Infringement pursuant to Section 25.2 above, and has not commenced negotiations with the infringer for the discontinuance of said Infringement, within [***] ([***]) days after receipt of notice to Licensee by The Regents of the existence of an Infringement, The Regents may elect to do so. The expenses of such suit or suits that The Regents elects to bring, including any expenses of Licensee incurred at the request of The Regents in conjunction with the prosecution of such suits or the settlement thereof, shall be paid for entirely by The Regents. In any suit initiated by The Regents, any recovery in excess of litigation costs will belong to The Regents.

25.4 Own Counsel. Each party shall always have the right to be represented by counsel of its own selection and at its own expense in any suit instituted under this Article 25 by the other party for Infringement,

25.5 Cooperation. Each party agrees to cooperate fully in any action under this Article 25 that is controlled by the other party, provided that the controlling party reimburses the cooperating party promptly for any costs and expenses incurred by the cooperating party in connection with providing such assistance.

26. INDEMNIFICATION

Claims shall be defended at the Licensee’s sole expense by counsel selected by Licensee and reasonably acceptable to The Regents, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, The Regents may be represented by separate counsel of its choosing at the cost and expense of the Licensee if a conflict of interest exists such that the counsel selected by the Licensee cannot simultaneously represent The Regents. The Licensee shall have sole control over the defense of any such Claim, but neither Licensee nor The Regents shall settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

26.2 The Licensee, at its sole cost and expense, will insure its activities in connection with any work performed hereunder and will obtain, keep in force, and maintain the following insurance: 26.2.1 Commercial Form General Liability Insurance (contractual liability included) with limits as follows:
