THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY

Patent License Agreement

This Patent License Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between the George Washington University, a congressionally chartered not-for-profit corporation (“University”) located in the District of Columbia, and BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, having a principal place of business at 325 Ellington Blvd., #317, Gaithersburg, MD 20878 (“Company”). This Agreement will become effective as of January 14^th, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). University and Company are collectively or individually, the “Parties” or “Party”.

BACKGROUND

University owns certain intellectual property developed by Dr. Lopa Mishra of the University’s School of Medicine and Health Sciences and her colleagues (identified in Exhibit A), relating to GW Tech ID# 020-030-Mishra – “Inhibition of SPTBN1 to treat Obesity/NASH and Obesity/NASH-driven cancer”. University also owns certain letters patent and/or applications for letters patent relating to the intellectual property. Company desires to obtain an exclusive license under the patent rights to exploit the intellectual property. University has determined that the exploitation of the intellectual property by Company is in the best interest of University and is consistent with its educational and research missions and goals.

In consideration of the mutual obligations contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:

1.1. License Grant. University grants to Company a license (the “License”) according to the exclusivity and territory terms described in Appendix A to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell Licensed Products in the Field of Use during the Term (as such terms may be defined in Sections 1.2, 6.1, Appendix A). The License includes the right to sublicense as permitted by this Agreement. No other rights or licenses are granted by University.

1.2. Related Definitions. The term “Licensed Products” means products and services that are made, made for, used, imported, offered for sale or sold by Company or its Affiliates or Sublicensees and that would (i) in the absence of the License, infringe (or, in the case of pending patent applications, upon issuance, would infringe) at least one claim of the Patent Rights or (ii) use a process or machine covered by a claim of Patent Rights, whether the claim is issued or pending. The term “Sublicense Agreement” means an arms-length transaction pursuant to which Company grants an unrelated third party (a “Sublicensee”) access to Patent Rights and/or Technology. Any delivery of Licensed Products to an End User via an Application Program Interface (API) shall be considered a Sale of Licensed Product. Under the License Agreement, University will agree that End User License Agreements will not be treated as Sublicense Agreements. The term “Patent Rights” means all of University’s patent rights represented by or issuing from: (a) the United States patents and patent applications listed in Exhibit A; (b) any continuation, divisional and re-issue applications of (a); and (c) any foreign counterparts and extensions of (a) or (b). The term “Affiliate” means a legal entity that is controlling, controlled by or under common control with Company and that has executed either this Agreement or a written Joinder Agreement agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 1.2, the word “control” means (x) the direct or indirect ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting securities of a legal entity, (y) the right to receive fifty percent (50%) or more of the profits or earnings of a legal entity, or (z) the right to determine the policy decisions of a legal entity. The term “Field of Use” means the definition agreed to in Appendix A.

1.3. Reservation of Rights by University. University reserves the right to use, and to permit other non-commercial entities to use, the Patent Rights for educational and research purposes.

1.4. U.S. Government Rights. The parties acknowledge that the United States government retains rights in intellectual property funded under any grant or similar contract with a Federal agency. The License is expressly subject to all applicable United States government rights, including, but not limited to, any applicable requirement that products, which result from such intellectual property and are sold in the United States, must be substantially manufactured in the United States.

1.5. Sublicense Agreement Conditions. The Company’s right to sublicense granted by University under the License is subject to each of the following conditions:

(a) In each Sublicense Agreement, Company will prohibit the Sublicensee from further sublicensing and require the Sublicensee to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after Company enters into a Sublicense Agreement, Company shall deliver to University a complete and accurate copy of the entire Sublicense Agreement written in the English language. University’s receipt of the Sublicense Agreement, however, will constitute neither an approval of the Sublicense Agreement nor a waiver of any right of University or obligation of Company under this Agreement.

(c) In the event that Company causes or experiences a Trigger Event (as defined in Section 6.4), all payments due to Company from its Affiliates or Sublicensees under the Sublicense Agreement will, upon notice from University to such Affiliate or Sublicensee, become payable directly to University for the account of Company. Upon receipt of any such funds, University will remit to Company the amount by which such payments exceed the amounts owed by Company to University.

(d) Company’s execution of a Sublicense Agreement will not relieve Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including its obligation to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop, commercialize, market and sell Licensed Products and to do so in a manner consistent with the Development Plan. Company is primarily liable to University for any act or omission of an Affiliate or Sublicensee of Company that would be a breach of this Agreement if performed or omitted by Company, and Company will be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement as a result of such act or omission.

1.6 Required Sublicensing. If Company is unable or unwilling to serve or develop a potential market or market territory for which there is another entity willing to be a Sublicensee, Company will, at University’s request, negotiate in good faith a Sublicense Agreement with any such entity. University would like Company or Sublicensees to address unmet needs, such as those of neglected patient populations or geographic areas, giving particular attention to improved therapeutics, diagnostics and agricultural technologies for the developing world.

1.7 No License by Implication. Nothing in this Agreement confers by estoppel implication or otherwise, any license or rights under any University patent other than the Patent Rights, regardless whether such patents are dominant or subordinate to the Patent Rights.

2.1 Development Plan. Company will deliver to University, prior to the Effective Date, a copy of an initial development plan for the Patent Rights (the “Development Plan”). The purpose of the Development Plan is (a) to demonstrate Company’s capability to bring the Patent Rights to commercialization, (b) to project the timeline for completing the necessary tasks, and (c) to measure Company’s progress against the projections. Thereafter, Company will deliver to University an annual updated Development Plan no later than December 1 of each year during the Term. The Development Plan will include all principal activities necessary for Commercially Reasonable Efforts to commercialize, market and sell Licensed Products. The Development Plan will also include, at a minimum, the information listed in Exhibit B. Company will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to develop, commercialize, market and sell Licensed Products and will do so in a manner consistent with the written Development Plan.

2.2 “Commercially Reasonable Efforts” shall mean, with respect to development of the Patent Rights under this Agreement, the use of efforts and resources that are consistent with the exercise of prudent scientific and business judgment, as applied by companies with similar resources to those of the applicable party to other products and services of similar commercial potential, potential market size and facing a similar potential competitive environment all as measured by the facts and circumstances at the time such efforts are made, which facts and circumstances may include, but are not limited to, reasonable application of the following: safety and efficacy; proposed product label and indication; patent protection, including scope, strength of claims, and term; anticipated pricing and reimbursement terms; manufacturing costs and other costs of goods sold; addressable patient population; addressable market; and potential competition from third parties.

2.3 Diligence Events. The Company will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to achieve each of the diligence events by the applicable completion date listed in Appendix A. In addition to usual and reasonable terms for termination, the University reserves the right to terminate the Agreement if Company fails to achieve one or more diligence events on or before their respective achievement date.

2.4 Diligence Resources. Until the first commercial sale of the first Licensed Product, Company will expend resources in the development and commercialization of the Licensed Products of amounts not less than the diligence minimums specified in Appendix A in each 12-month period following the Effective Date. If Company’s total expenditures for development and commercialization of Licensed Products in any 12-month period do not meet or exceed the applicable diligence minimum, then Company will pay to University the amount of the shortfall. Company will make any payments of the shortfall to University together with the next Development Plan due to University under Article 2.

2.5 A failure of Company to create and deliver a Development Plan or otherwise satisfy its obligations under this Article 2 will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.

3.1 License Initiation Fee. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay to University no later than 30 days from the Effective Date a non-refundable, non-creditable license initiation fee as specified in Appendix A.

3.2 Equity Issuance. Intentionally omitted.

3.3 Dilution Protection. Intentionally omitted.

3.4 Follow-On Investments. Intentionally omitted.

3.5 License Maintenance Fees. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay to University, on each anniversary of the Effective Date until the first Sale (as defined in Section 3.8) of the first Licensed Product, the applicable license maintenance fee listed in Appendix A.

3.6 Milestone Payments. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay to University the applicable milestone payment listed in Appendix A after achievement of each milestone event for each Licensed Product. Company will provide University with written notice within thirty (30) days after achieving each milestone.

For clarity, each time a milestone is achieved with respect to a Licensed Product, then any other milestone payments with respect to earlier milestones that have not yet been paid will be due and payable together with the milestone payment for the milestone that is actually achieved. For additional clarity, milestones are due and payable on Licensed Products and on products that, upon FDA approval, would become Licensed Products.

3.7 Earned Royalties. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay to University a royalty as specified in Appendix A.

3.8 Related Definitions. The term “Sale” means any bona fide transaction for which consideration is received by Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee for the sale, use, lease, transfer or other disposition of a Licensed Product to a third party. A Sale is deemed completed at the time that Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee receives payment for a Licensed Product. The term “Quarter” means each three-month period beginning on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1. The term “Net Sales” means the consideration received or the fair market value attributable to, each Sale, less Qualifying Costs that are directly attributable to a Sale, specifically identified on an invoice or other documentation and actually borne by Company or its Affiliates or Sublicensees. For purposes of determining Net Sales, the words “fair market value” means the cash consideration that Company or its Affiliates or Sublicensees would realize from an unrelated buyer in an arm’s length sale of an identical item sold in the same quantity and at the time and place of the transaction. The term “Qualifying Costs” means: (a) customary discounts in the trade for quantity purchased or for wholesalers and distributors; (b) credits or refunds for claims or returns that do not exceed the original invoice amount; (c) prepaid outbound transportation expenses and transportation insurance premiums; and (d) sales and use taxes and other fees imposed by and indefeasibly paid to a governmental agency.

3.9 Minimum Royalties. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay on a Quarterly basis to University the applicable minimum royalty listed in Appendix A, if Company’s actual earned royalties under Section 3.7 for each Quarter after the first Sale following the first New Drug Applications (“NDA”) or Biologics License Application (“BLA”) approval of a Licensed Product does not exceed this amount.

3.10 Sublicense Fees. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay to University a sublicense fee specified in Appendix A of the sum of all payments plus the fair market value of all other consideration of any kind, received by Company from Sublicensees during the Quarter, excluding: (a) royalties paid to Company by a Sublicensee based upon Sales or Net Sales by the Sublicensee; (b) equity investments in Company by a Sublicensee up to the amount of the fair market value of the equity purchased on the date of the investment; (c) loan proceeds paid to Company by a Sublicensee in an arm’s length, full recourse debt financing to the extent that such loan is not forgiven; and (d) sponsored research funding paid to Company by a Sublicensee in a bona fide transaction for future research to be performed by Company.

3.11 Assignment Fee. In partial consideration of the License, Company will pay an assignment fee equal to the amount specified in Appendix A within 30 days of each assignment of this Agreement, following procedures for assignment as specified in Section 14.5 herein.

4.1 Royalty Reports. Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar year following the first Sale of a Licensed Product and until the first NDA or BLA approval of a Licensed Product, Company will deliver to University a report (the “Royalty Report”), certified by the chief financial officer of Company, detailing the calculation of all royalties, fees and other payments due to University for such annual period. The Royalty Report will include, at a minimum, the following information for the period, each listed by product, by country: (a) the number of units of Licensed Products constituting Sales; (b) the gross consideration received for Sales; (c) Qualifying Costs, listed by category of cost; (d) Net Sales; (e) the gross amount of any payments and other consideration received by Company from Sublicensees and the amounts of any deductions permitted by Section 3.8; (f) the royalties, fees and other payments owed to University, listed by category; and (g) the computations for any applicable currency conversions. Each Royalty Report will be substantially in the form of the sample report attached as Exhibit C. In addition to the pre-approval Royalty Reports described above, following the first Sale after the first NDA or BLA approval of a Licensed Product, Company will commence delivery of the Royalty Reports to University within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Quarter.

4.2 Payments. Company will pay all royalties, fees and other payments due to University under Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.10 within forty-five (45) days after the end of the relevant annual or Quarter period in which the royalties, fees or other payments accrued.

4.3 Records. Company will maintain, and will cause its Affiliates and Sublicensees to maintain, complete and accurate books, records and related background information to verify Sales, Net Sales, and all of the royalties, fees, and other payments due or paid under this Agreement, as well as the various computations reported under Section 4.1. The records for each annual or Quarter period will be maintained for at least five (5) years after submission of the applicable report required under Section 4.1.

4.4 Audit Rights. Upon reasonable prior written notice to Company, Company and its Affiliates and Sublicensees will provide University and its accountants with access to all of the books, records and related background information required by Section 4.3 to conduct a review or audit of Sales, Net Sales, and all of the royalties, fees, and other payments payable under this Agreement. Access will be made available: (a) during normal business hours; (b) in a manner reasonably designed to facilitate University’s review or audit without unreasonable disruption to Company’s business; and (c) no more than once each calendar year during the Term (as defined below) and for a period of five (5) years thereafter. Within forty-five (45) days of completion of the audit, Company will pay to University the amount of any underpayment determined by the Auditor, plus accrued interest as defined in Section 4.8. If the review or audit determines that Company has underpaid any payment by five percent (5%) or more, then Company within 45 days will also pay the costs and expenses of University and its accountants in connection with the review or audit.

4.5 Information Rights. Until the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, Company will provide to University, at least as frequently as the following reports are distributed to the Board of Directors or management of Company, copies of all Board and managerial reports that relate to the Patent Rights or the Licensed Products.

4.6 Currency. All dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement are expressed in United States dollars. All payments will be made in United States dollars. If Company receives payment from a third party in a currency other than United States dollars for which a royalty or fee is owed under this Agreement, then (a) the payment will be converted into United States dollars at the conversion rate for the foreign currency as published in the eastern edition of the Wall Street Journal as of the last business day of the annual or Quarter period in which the payment was received by Company, and (b) the conversion computation will be documented by Company in the applicable report delivered to University under Section 4.1.

4.7 Place of Payment. All payments by Company are payable to “The George Washington University” and will be made to the following addresses:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the party receiving the Confidential Information may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to the extent required to comply with, a court or administrative subpoena or a lawful court order provided that the receiving party first uses its best efforts to obtain an order preserving the confidentiality of the information of the Disclosing Party and provided the receiving party gives the Disclosing Party timely notice of the contemplated disclosure to give the Disclosing Party an opportunity to intervene to preserve the confidentiality of the information, (ii) the receiving party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to third parties engaged as legal advisors, (iii) University may disclose Confidential Information to a third party with whom University has monetized or with whom it is seeking to monetize its rights to receive all or a portion of payments under this Agreement and to placement agents or structuring agents engaged for monetization, provided that any such third party is bound by written agreement to respect the Confidential Information in a manner substantially similar as set forth in this Agreement.

Upon prior review of the University, Company may disclose in a patent application or the prosecution thereof, any Confidential Information necessary to obtain or secure patent protection of the commercialized products or processes.

Each Party intends that to the extent that any confidential information is disclosed under this Agreement, such Confidential Information does not contain export control-listed technology or technical data identified on any US export control list, including the Commerce Control List (CCL) set forth in the Export Administration Regulations at 15 CFR Part 774 and the US Munitions List (USML) set forth in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations at 22 CFR Part 121.

6.1 Term. This Agreement will commence on Effective Date and terminate upon the later of: (a) the expiration or abandonment of the last patent to expire or become abandoned of the Patent Rights; or (b) ten (10) years after the first Sale of the first Licensed Product if no patent has issued from the Patent Rights (as the case may be, the “Term”).

6.2 Early Termination by Company. Company may terminate this Agreement at any time effective upon completion of each of the following conditions: (a) providing at least sixty (60) days prior written notice to University of such intention to terminate; (b) ceasing to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell all Licensed Products; (c) terminating all Sublicense Agreements and causing all Affiliates and Sublicensees to cease making, having made, using, importing, offering for sale and selling all Licensed Products; and (d) paying all amounts owed to University under this Agreement between University and Company related to the Patent Rights, through the effective date of termination.

6.3 Early Termination by University. University may terminate this Agreement if: (a) Company is more than thirty (30) days late in paying to University any amounts owed under this Agreement and does not immediately pay University in full, including accrued interest, upon demand (a “Payment Default”); (b) other than a Payment Default, Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee breaches this Agreement and does not cure the breach within forty-five (45) days after written notice of the breach; or (c) Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee experiences a Trigger Event.

6.4 Trigger Event. The term “Trigger Event” means any of the following: (a) a material default by Company under any Agreement between Company and University related to the Patent Rights (whether entered prior to, contemporaneous with, or subsequent to the Effective Date) that is not cured during any specified cure periods; (b) if Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee (i) becomes insolvent, bankrupt or generally fails to pay its debts as such debts become due, (ii) is adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt, (iii) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts, (iv) suffers the appointment of a custodian, receiver or trustee for it or its property and, if appointed without its consent, not discharged within thirty (30) days, (v) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (vi) suffers proceedings being instituted against it under any law related to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or the reorganization, readjustment or release of debtors and, if contested by it, not dismissed or stayed within ten (10) days; (c) the institution or commencement by Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee of any proceeding under any law related to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or the reorganization, readjustment or release of debtors; (d) the entering of any order for relief relating to any of the proceedings described in Section 6.4(b) or (c) above; (e) the calling by Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee of a meeting of its creditors with a view to arranging a composition or adjustment of its debts; (f) the act or failure to act by Company or its Affiliate or Sublicensee indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any of the proceedings described in Section 6.4(b) – (e) above; (g) failure by Company to pay patent counsel pursuant to the terms of a Client and Billing Agreement, if any; or (h) the commencement by Company of any action against University, including an action for declaratory judgment, to declare or render invalid or unenforceable the Patent Rights, or any claim thereof.

6.5 Effect of Termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason: (a) the License terminates; (b) Company and all its Affiliates and Sublicensees will cease all making, having made, using, importing, offering for sale and selling all Licensed Products, except to extent permitted by Section 6.6; (c) Company will pay to University all amounts, including accrued interest, owed to University under this Agreement and any Sponsored Research Agreement related to the Patent Rights, through the date of termination, including royalties on Licensed Products invoiced or shipped through the date of termination and any sell off period permitted by Section 6.6, whether or not payment is received prior to termination or expiration of the sell-off period permitted by Section 6.6; (d) Company will, at University’s request, return or destroy all confidential information of University and provide to University one complete copy of all data with respect to Licensed Products generated by Company during the Term that will facilitate the further development of the technology licensed under this Agreement; and (e) in the case of termination under Section 6.3, all duties of University and all rights (but not duties) of Company under this Agreement immediately terminate without further action required by either University or Company.

Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Company will promptly remove, efface or destroy all references to University from any advertising, labels, web sites or other materials used in the promotion of the business of Company or its Affiliates or Sublicensees, and Company and its Affiliates and Sublicensees will not represent in any manner that it has rights in or to the Patent Rights or the Licensed Products. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason other than pursuant to Section 6.3(a) or (c), Company may sell off its inventory of Licensed Products existing on the date of termination for a period of six (6) months and pay University royalties on Sales of such inventory within thirty (30) days following the expiration of such six (6) month period.

6.7 Survival. Company’s obligation to pay all amounts, including accrued interest, owed to University under this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason. Sections 3.4, 14.10, and 14.11 and Articles 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11 will survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason in accordance with their respective terms.

7.1 Patent Control. University controls the preparation, prosecution, and maintenance of the Patent Rights and the selection of patent counsel, with input from Company. For purposes of this Article 7, the word “maintenance” includes any interferences, claims, or other proceedings, in any forum (including litigation in a lower or appellate court), brought by University, Company, a third party, or the United States Patent and Trademark Office involving the Patent Rights, any reexamination, review (such as inter partes reviews or post grant reviews), or validity challenge of the Patent Rights, and any requests by University or Company that the United States Patent and Trademark Office reexamine or reissue any patent in the Patent Rights.

7.2 Payment and Reimbursement. Company agrees that the University has incurred historically accrued attorney fees, expenses, official fees and all other charges accumulated and invoiced to the University incident to the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Patent Rights (the “Past Patent Expenses”) as specified in Appendix A. By the Past Patent Expenses Reimbursement Date identified in Appendix A, Company will reimburse University for Past Patent Expenses. For patent expenses not included in Appendix A, including, but not limited to those incurred during the Term, Company will reimburse University for all documented attorneys’ fees, expenses, official fees and all other charges accumulated or invoiced to the University incident to the preparation, filing, prosecution, and maintenance of the Patent Rights, within thirty (30) days after Company’s receipt of invoices for such fees, expenses and charges. University reserves the right to require the Company to provide a deposit in advance of incurring out of pocket patent expenses estimated by counsel to exceed $2,500. If Company fails to reimburse patent expenses under Paragraph 7.2, or provide a requested deposit with respect to a Patent Right, then University will be free at its discretion and expense to either abandon such applications or patents related to such Patent Right or to continue such preparation, prosecution and/or maintenance activities and to the extent University has pursued protection of any patent rights associated with such patent action will remain subject to the license granted under this Agreement, at University’s sole discretion. Any abandonment of patents or applications under Patent Rights by the University shall not affect Company’s obligation to pay prior royalties due under this Agreement that were accrued prior to the date of abandonment of patents or applications for such the Patent Rights.

7.3 Patent Marking. Company shall include appropriate marking on all Licensed Products made, sold or otherwise disposed of by Company, which patent marking will be in accordance with appropriate patent marking laws of the United States and any other country in which such the Licensed Products are made, sold or otherwise disposed of. Company will cause its Affiliates and/or Sublicensees to similarly mark any Licensed Products made, sold or otherwise disposed of by such Affiliates or Sublicensees. The patent marking obligations required by this Section 7.3 shall apply to issued patents and to pending claims, and in either case covering Licensed Products.

8.1 Notice. Company and University will notify each other promptly, but in no event later than five (5) days after any apparent infringement of the Patent Rights that comes to their attention. Company and University will consult each other in a timely manner concerning any appropriate response to the apparent infringement.

8.2 Prosecution of Infringement. Company may prosecute any infringement of the Patent Rights at Company’s expense, including defending against any counterclaims or cross claims brought by any party against Company or University regarding the Patent Rights and defending against any claim that the Patent or Patent Rights are invalid in the course of any infringement action or in a declaratory judgment action. University reserves the right to intervene voluntarily and join Company in any such infringement litigation. If University chooses not to intervene voluntarily, but University is a necessary party to the action brought by Company, then Company may join University in the infringement litigation. If Company decides not to prosecute any infringement of the Patent Rights, then University may elect to prosecute such infringement independently of Company in University’s sole discretion.

8.3 Cooperation. In any litigation under this Article 8, either party, at the request and sole expense of the other party, will cooperate to the fullest extent reasonably possible. This Section 8.3 will not be construed to require either party to undertake any activities, including legal discovery, at the request of any third party, except as may be required by lawful process of a court of competent jurisdiction. If, however, either party is required to undertake any activity, including legal discovery, as a right of lawful process of a court of competent jurisdiction, then Company will pay all expenses incurred by Company and by University.

8.4 Control of Litigation. Company controls any litigation or potential litigation involving the prosecution of infringement claims regarding the Patent Rights in which University is not a party, including the selection of counsel, all with input from University. If such litigation involves a challenge to the validity or enforceability of any claim within United States Patent Rights, University will have the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to be involved in such challenge with counsel of its choice and at its own expense. Company must not settle or compromise any such litigation in a manner that imposes any obligations or restrictions on University (including, without limitation, injunctive or non-monetary relief affecting University or an admission of invalidity of unenforceability of any United States Patent Right) or grants any rights to the Patent Rights, other than any permitted Sublicense Agreements, without University’s prior written permission. University controls any litigation or potential litigation involving the prosecution of infringement claims regarding the Patent Rights in which University has elected to prosecute the infringement independently of Company or has voluntarily or involuntarily joined Company in the infringement litigation, including the selection of counsel, all with input from Company. In all instances in which University is a party, University reserves the right to select its own counsel. If University is involuntarily joined as a party, University retains the right to select its own counsel, but Company will be responsible for all litigation expenditures as set forth in Section 8.5.

8.5 Recoveries from Litigation. If Company prosecutes any claims of actual or alleged infringement of the Patent Rights either without University as a party or with University involuntarily joined as a party, then Company will reimburse University for University’s litigation expenditures, including any attorneys’ fees, expert fees, expenses, official fees and other charges incurred by University, even if there are no financial recoveries from the infringement action. Company will reimburse University within thirty (30) days after receiving each invoice from University. After reimbursing University for its expenditures, Company will next use the financial recoveries from such claims, if any, (a) first, to reimburse Company for its litigation expenditures; and (b) second, to retain any remainder but to treat the remainder as either (i) Net Sales for the purpose of determining the royalties due to University under Section 3.7 or (ii) Sublicense Agreement consideration for the purpose of determining the sublicense fees due to University under Section 3.10, whichever would result in a larger payment to University. If Company prosecutes any claims of actual or alleged infringement of the Patent Rights with University joined as a voluntary party, then any financial recoveries from such claims will be (x) first, shared between Company and University in proportion with their respective shares of the aggregate litigation expenditures by Company and University; and (y) second, shared equally by Company and University as to any remainder after Company and University have fully recovered their aggregate litigation expenditures. If University prosecutes any claims of actual or alleged infringement of the Patent Rights independent of Company, then University will prosecute such infringement at University’s expense and will retain any financial recoveries in their entirety.
