(b) the sub-license or sub-contract automatically terminates to the extent this Agreement is terminated;

(c) any act of the sub-licensee or sub-contractor which would, if committed by Licensee, be a breach of this Agreement shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement as an equivalent breach by Licensee of the terms of this Agreement; and

Licensee agrees to comply with:

(a) the terms of any such agreement to the extent that they relate to the Licensed IP Rights, including the usage and registration of the Licensed IP Rights; and

(b) all relevant Third Party royalty or other payment obligations in any such agreement to the extent that they relate to a Licensed IP Right in which case Licensee agrees to be responsible for any applicable royalty or other payment obligations to the relevant Third Party as if it were a party to the relevant agreement,

in each case, to the extent Licensee has been notified of those terms or obligations (as applicable).

4.2 Consents under Third Party Licenses.

(a) Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensor and its Affiliates may be required to obtain a Third Party consent, approval or permission (each, an Authorization) to grant a sub-license of any relevant Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights to Licensee in accordance with Clause 2.2 (Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights) Where any Authorization is required:

(i) Licensor shall (and shall procure that its Affiliates shall) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to:

(A) obtain that Authorization as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, provided that Licensor and its Affiliates shall not be required to obtain any Authorizations where doing so would require a Third Party license to be changed or amended in a manner that, in Licensor’s reasonable opinion, is detrimental to: (1) the terms of that Third Party license or to the rights provided under it to Licensor or its Affiliates; or (2) Licensor’s or any of its Affiliate’s relationship with the relevant Third Party licensor; and

(B) minimise the Costs of obtaining that Authorization;

(ii) Licensor shall keep Licensee informed of the progress in obtaining that Authorization and shall provide Licensee with a copy of each Authorization as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving it;

(iv) Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for all reasonable documented Costs (other than any internal Costs) incurred by Licensor and its Affiliates in connection with obtaining the Authorizations, provided that Licensor shall notify Licensee of any such Costs as soon as reasonably practicable.

4.3 Licensor shall not be in breach of this Agreement and its obligation under Clause 2.2 to grant a sub-license of the Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights to which the relevant Third Party license relates shall immediately cease, if:

(a) a Third Party does not grant an Authorization, provided that Licensor has complied with Clause 4.2(a);

(b) that Third Party license: (A) is terminated by Licensor or its Affiliates, as applicable, during the Term; and (B) does not permit the survival of the sub-license granted to Licensee under this Agreement; or

(c) that Third Party license: (A) is terminated by the relevant Third Party licensor during the Term or expires during the Term, and (B) does not permit the survival of the sub-license granted to Licensee under his Agreement,

in the case of (b) above, provided that Licensor uses Commercially Reasonable Efforts and works with Licensee to agree, in good faith, alternative arrangements, if practicable, to give Licensee equivalent benefits or rights as it would have enjoyed in relation to the relevant Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights.

5. DURATION

This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and, except to the extent terminated earlier in accordance with Clause 9 (Termination), shall continue in perpetuity

6. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND UNDERTAKINGS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE), REGARDING THE LICENSED IP RIGHTS OR RELATING TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR UNDERTAKING OF SUITABILITY, FITNESS FOR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS) ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. LICENSEE IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS USE, RELIANCE OR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE LICENSED IP RIGHTS, INCLUDING ANY ACTIONS OR DECISIONS TAKEN OR NOT TAKEN AS A RESULT THEREOF.

7. OWNERSHIP AND MAINTENANCE

7.1 Ownership of Licensed IP Rights

(a) Licensee acknowledges and agrees that:

(i) all Patent and Know-How Rights and other rights in the Licensed IP Rights are the exclusive property of Licensor, its Affiliates or, in the case of the Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights, its licensors; and

(ii) it shall not acquire, nor claim, any right, title or interest in or to any element of the Licensed IP Rights by virtue of this Agreement or its use of the relevant Licensed IP Right, other than the rights specifically granted to it under Clause 2.1 (Licensed Patents and Licensed Know-How) and Clause 2.2 (Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights).

7.2 Improvements

(a) As between the Parties, each Party shall own all rights in any Improvement that it or any of its Affiliates makes, without further obligation to the other Party, except as expressly provided in Clause 7.2(b).

(b) Neither Party shall be required to grant the other a license or other right in or to any Improvements made by that Party, except to the extent the manufacture, sale, offer for sale or importation of any Alcon Existing Product or Novartis Existing Product (but only in the form that product is sold by Alcon or Novartis, as applicable, as at the Effective Date) would infringe the other Party’s intellectual property rights in the Improvement. In this case only, and for no additional consideration, the Party that owns the Improvement shall grant the otherwise infringing Party a non-exclusive, sub-licensable (in accordance with Clause 3) license in the Territory in the same fields of use as set out in Clause 2.1 (Licensed Patents and Licensed Know-How) for so long as the otherwise infringing Party continues to manufacture, sell, offer for sale or import any Alcon Existing Product or Novartis Existing Product, in the form that product is sold by Licensor as at the Effective Date.

(i) pay renewal fees and take all reasonable actions to maintain the registered Licensed Patents owned by Licensor or any Affiliate of Licensor;

(iii) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prosecute to grant any applications for registered Licensed Patents owned by Licensor or any Affiliate of Licensor.

For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this Agreement, “abandon or allow to lapse” does not include actions taken by Licensor during the ordinary course of patent prosecution, for example instructions regarding claim scope or designation of territories, but does include, among other actions, non-payment of renewal fees.

7.4 Abandonment or Lapse of Licensed Patents

(a) If, during the Term, Licensor wishes to abandon or allow any registration or application for a Licensed Patent owned by Licensor or any Affiliate of Licensor and set out in Exhibit 1 (Licensed Patents), then Licensor shall notify Licensee of the same at least sixty (60) calendar days in advance of the expiry/abandonment date of such Licensed Patent. Licensee shall have a period of thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice to confirm whether or not it is interested in maintaining the relevant Licensed Patent(s), and:

(i) if Licensee confirms in writing that it is not interested in maintaining the relevant Licensed Patent(s) or fails to notify Licensor of its decision within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice, then Licensor shall be free to surrender, abandon or allow to lapse the relevant Licensed Patent(s); or

(ii) if Licensee confirms in writing within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice that it is interested in maintaining the relevant Licensed Patent(s), then Licensor shall assign, at Licensee’s cost, the relevant Licensed Patent(s) to Licensee and Licensee shall take over the prosecution or maintenance of the relevant Licensed Patent(s) and all associated Costs. If any Licensed Patent is assigned to Licensee under this Clause (ii), Licensee shall, with effect from the date of that assignment, grant to Licensor and Affiliates of Licensor a non-exclusive, sub-licensable (in accordance with Clause 3 (Sub-licenses)), royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual (subject to termination of this Agreement in accordance with Clause 9) license under that Licensed Patent to make, use, sell, offer for sale and import products of Licensor and Affiliates of Licensor in any field of use other than the Alcon Licensed Field.

8. INFRINGEMENT

8.1 Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute any representation that the use of any Licensed IP Right does not, or will not, infringe any intellectual property rights owned by a Third Party.

(a) any actual, suspected or threatened infringement of any element of a Licensed IP Right by a Third Party;

(b) any allegation or complaint made by any Third Party that any element of a Licensed IP Right is invalid or that use of any element of a Licensed IP Right infringes any Third Party right; or

8.3 In respect of any matter described in Clause 8.2 above:

(a) Licensee shall not make any admissions other than to Licensor;

(b) Subject to Clause 8.4, Licensor shall decide, in its absolute discretion whether or not to take action, and what action to take, and shall have exclusive control over any resulting claims, actions and proceedings; and

(c) if Licensor decides to take any action in respect of any such matter, Licensee shall (and shall procure that its Affiliates and sub-licensees shall), at Licensor’s cost, provide any assistance that Licensor reasonably requires (including bringing proceedings or joining any proceedings brought by

Licensor). Subject to Clause 8.5, any award of Costs or compensation in connection with any of those matters shall be solely for the account of Licensor after reimbursement of Licensee’s reasonable costs incurred in its cooperation under this Clause 8.3(c).

8.4 If either (a) Licensor notifies Licensee that Licensor does not intend to take any action in respect of any matter described in Clause 8.2 above or three (3) months have elapsed since Licensee provided notice of a matter described in Clause 8.2 without Licensor taking any action; and that matter relates to: (i) a country in the Territory in which Licensee or an Affiliate of Licensee operates; and (ii) the Licensed Alcon Field, or (b) the matter relates to or, in Licensee’s reasonable opinion, will impact a product covered under the Licensed IP Rights which the Licensee has Commercialised or intends to Commercialise within twenty-four (24) months from the date Licensee provided notice of a matter (or such time period as otherwise agreed by the Parties on a case-by-case basis) described in Clause 8.2 then under either (a) or (b) and subject to the terms of the Licensed-In Third Party IP Rights, if applicable, Licensee may take action in its own name in respect of that matter and control any resulting claim(s), action(s) and proceeding(s), provided that, prior to taking any material action or decision with regards to that matter (including commencing any claim(s), action(s) or proceeding(s) or settling any dispute) Licensee shall consult in good faith with Licensor, shall seek Licensor’s consent for that material action or decision (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and shall not take any such action or decision without that consent. If Licensee (or its Representatives) takes any action or decision in respect of a matter under this Clause 8.4 that Licensor has not consented to, Licensee shall indemnify Licensor and its Representatives, against all Costs or other liabilities as a result of that action or decision. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that it shall not be unreasonable for Licensor to withhold its consent under this Clause 8.4 to the extent that, in Licensor’s reasonable opinion, Licensee’s taking of the relevant material action or decision would be detrimental to the business of Licensor or any Affiliate of Licensor (including in respect of its relationship with any of its suppliers or customers).

8.5 Licensor shall (and shall procure that its Affiliates shall), at Licensee’s cost, provide any assistance that Licensee reasonably requires under Clause 8.4 (including bringing proceedings or joining any proceedings brought by Licensee). Any award of Costs or compensation in connection with any claim(s), action(s) or proceeding(s) brought by Licensee under Clause 8.4 shall be solely for the account of Licensee after reimbursement of Licensor (and Licensor’s Affiliates’) reasonable costs incurred in its or their cooperation under this Clause 8.5.

In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the affected Party shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other similar relief of its rights under this Agreement to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which the affected Party is entitled pursuant to this Agreement. The other Party shall not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that money damages are an adequate remedy. The Parties agree that the remedies under Applicable Law for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defence in any action for specific performance that a remedy under Applicable Law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived.
