Prosecution and Maintenance of Patent Rights ALNYLAM will have the right and responsibility to file, prosecute and maintain patent protection in the Territory for all ALNYLAM Patent Rights. [ * ]
Filing, Prosecution and Maintenance of Patents RENOVIS agrees to file, prosecute and maintain in the Territory, upon appropriate consultation with MERCK, the RENOVIS Patent Rights licensed to MERCK under this Agreement; provided, however, with respect to Joint Information and Inventions that are not Improvements to RENOVIS Patent Rights or RENOVIS Technology, MERCK shall have the first right to file patent applications for such Joint Information and Inventions. With respect to RENOVIS Information and Inventions, RENOVIS may elect not to file and if so MERCK shall have the right to file patent applications. In such event, RENOVIS shall execute such documents and perform such acts at RENOVIS’ expense as may be reasonably necessary to effect an assignment of such Patent Rights to MERCK in a timely manner to allow MERCK to continue such prosecution or maintenance. In each case, the filing Party shall give the non-filing Party an opportunity to review the text of the application before filing, shall consult with the non-filing Party with respect thereto, and shall supply the non-filing Party with a copy of the application as filed, together with notice of its filing date and serial number. RENOVIS shall keep MERCK advised of the status of the actual and prospective patent filings and upon the request of MERCK, provide advance copies of any papers related to the filing, prosecution and maintenance of such patent filings. RENOVIS shall promptly give notice to MERCK of the grant, lapse, revocation, surrender, invalidation or abandonment of any Patent Rights licensed to MERCK for which RENOVIS is responsible for the filing, prosecution and maintenance. With respect to all filings hereunder, the filing Party shall be responsible for payment of all costs and expenses related to such filings.

Notification and Defense of Claims The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Indemnitor in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information, or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder, but the failure so to notify the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability that the Indemnitor may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement unless the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced thereby. With respect to any such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitor of the commencement thereof:
Litigation and Government Claims There is no pending suit, claim, action or litigation or administrative, arbitration or other proceeding or governmental investigation or inquiry against OSI or Outback which would, severally or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, assets or the condition, financial or otherwise, of OSI and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. There are no such proceedings threatened or, to the knowledge of OSI or Outback, contemplated or any unasserted claims (whether or not the potential claimant may be aware of the claim), which might, severally or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, assets or the condition, financial or otherwise, of OSI and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
