11.2 Designated Inventions made jointly by one or more Representatives or contractors of one Party with one or more Representatives or contractors of
any other Party, and title to all patent applications filed thereon and all patents issued thereon, shall be jointly owned by the inventing Parties. Each
inventing Party shall have the right to grant licenses (including the right of any licensee to grant sublicenses) to the inventing Party’s Subsidiaries
and/or to Third Parties under any patent issued on such a joint Designated Invention without compensation to the other inventing Party and/or its or
their Representatives or contractors, which hereby give any necessary consent for granting such licenses as may be required by the law of any
country. All expenses, other than internal patent department expenses of the Parties, incurred in obtaining and maintaining such patents shall be
equally shared by the inventing Parties (except as provided hereinafter). Prior to filing any patent application in respect of any such joint Designated
Inventions the inventing Parties shall hold consultations and agree on whether this is appropriate and, if so, which of them shall file and prosecute
such application and in which countries corresponding applications shall be filed and by whom. With respect to any joint Designated Invention,
where one inventing Party elects not to seek or maintain such protection thereon in any particular country or not to share equally in the expenses
thereof, the other inventing Party shall have the right to seek or maintain such protection in said country at its or their own expense and shall have
full control over the prosecution and maintenance thereof even though title to any patent issued thereon shall be joint.
11.3 With respect to Designated Inventions under Sections 11.1, the owning Party hereby grants the other Party the same rights and obligations with
respect to the relevant Specific Results provided for in this Agreement to carry out the activities set forth in this Agreement (including, but not
limited to, Sections 7, 8 and 9). With respect to patents issued on said Designated Inventions, the license granted by the owning Party to the other
Party shall be an irrevocable (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, paid-up license to
make, have made, use, lease, sell, offer to sell, import and otherwise transfer any products and to practice and have practiced any process and shall
include the right of such licensed Party to sublicense its Subsidiaries of the same or within the scope of the foregoing license.
11.4 Each Party shall give the other Party all reasonable assistance in connection with the preparation or prosecution of any patent application filed by
said other Party and shall cause to be executed all assignments and other instruments and documents as said other Party may consider necessary or
appropriate to carry out the intent of this Section 11.
11.5 Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any patent license agreements between the Parties currently existing, but may confer rights on one or
more Parties in addition to the rights they may have under such existing agreements.
11.6 To the extent that a license grant under Sections 9 and 11 recites the right to make any product, apparatus and/or material, or practice any method or
process in the manufacture of same, such grant shall not be construed as conveying the right to a Party or other entity to “have made” such product
apparatus and/or material, or “have practiced” any such method or process, unless such right is expressly recited therein.
