Primary shall, in the event it pursues any actual, potential or suspected infringement of Licensed Primary Patents in the Legacy Field to the extent they Cover Viamet Derived Products or Licensed VDCs in accordance with this [Section 8.2], be entitled, subject to the reimbursement of Legacy’s expenses related to such action as contemplated above, to retain one hundred percent (100%) of any resulting recoveries, damages, or other amounts received with respect to such actual, potential or suspected infringement.
