Notice; Procedures. Each Party shall notify the other Party within ​ Business Days of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of # Joint Patents anywhere in the world or # Licensed Patents (other than Joint Patents) if infringement of such Licensed Patents adversely affects or is expected to adversely affect any Product the Territory, and in each case of (i) and (ii), any related declaratory judgment or equivalent action alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of such Patents (collectively “Infringement”). For clarity, any Infringement excludes those adversarial proceedings that are addressed in [Section 0].

Each Party shall notify the other within ​ Business Days of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any of the Licensed Patents (including any Joint Patents in the Territory), which infringement adversely affects or is expected to adversely affect any Product in the Field in the Territory, and any related declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action by a Third Party alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any of the Licensed Patents (including any Joint Patents in the Territory) in the Territory (collectively “Product Infringement”).

Notice. Each Party shall notify the other within ​ of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any of the Ovid Patents (including Joint Patents) in the Licensee Territory, which infringement adversely affects or is reasonably expected to adversely affect any Product, including any declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action alleging the invalidity, unenforceability, or non-infringement of any of the Ovid Patents (collectively, “Product Infringement”).

Each Party shall promptly notify the other of becoming aware of any alleged or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any Licensed Patents and any related declaratory judgment, opposition, or similar action alleging the invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of any of the Licensed Patents in the Territory (collectively “Product Infringement”).

Joint Patents. If either Party becomes aware of any alleged or threatened Infringement by a Third Party of any Joint Patent, then such Party shall so notify the other Party, and the Parties shall promptly confer and determine # whether to bring such an enforcement action against such Third Party, # the strategy to be employed in connection with any such action, or # the manner in which to settle such action. Unless otherwise agreed, Verrica has the first right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any legal action to enforce any Joint Patents against any Infringement, at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate, and Verrica shall consider in good faith the interests of Licensee in such enforcement of any such Patents. Unless otherwise agreed, if Verrica or its designee fails to file an action to abate such Infringement within ​ after a written request from Licensee to do so, or if Verrica discontinues the prosecution of any such action after filing without abating such Infringement, then if such Infringement has not otherwise been abated by Verrica or its designee, Licensee may enforce any Joint Patent against the relevant Infringement, at its own expense as it reasonably determines appropriate, provided that Verrica does not provide reasonable rationale for not doing so or continuing to do so (including a substantive concern regarding counter-claims by the infringing Third Party). The Party not bringing an action under this [Section 10.3(b)(ii)] will be entitled to separate representation in such proceeding by counsel of its own choice and at its own expense and will cooperate fully with the Party bringing such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Party bringing an action under this [Section 10.3(b)(ii)] shall discuss any such action with the other Party, and shall not take any substantive position in any such enforcement proceeding or take any action in such enforcement proceeding that would have the potential to adversely affect or limit the scope, validity, or enforceability of any claim in any of Verrica Patents, Licensee Patents, or Joint Patents.
