Patent Validity. 14.1 If, in any proceeding in which the validity, infringement, or priority of invention of any claim of the LICENSED PATENT(S) to LICENSEE is in issue, a judgment or decree is entered which becomes final (below referred to as an “final judgment”), the construction placed upon any such claim by such final judgment shall thereafter be followed, not only as to such claim but as to all claims to which such construction applies, with respect to subsequently occurring acts. If such final judgment holds any claim invalid, LICENSEE shall be relieved prospectively (1) from including in its reports ROYALTY-BASE PRODUCTS and ROYALTY-BASE SERVICES sold or otherwise disposed of covered only by such claim or any broader claim to which such final judgment is applicable, and (2) from the performance of those other acts which may be required by this Agreement only because of any such claim. However, if there are two or more conflicting final judgments with respect to the same claim based on the same grounds or where the same issues were raised, the decision of the higher tribunal shall be followed, but if the tribunals be of equal dignity, then the decision more favorable to the claim shall be followed.
