to be borne by BDSI to the extent relating to Patent Rights outside the Territory, and by Meda to the extent relating to Patent Rights in the Territory. BDSI shall keep Meda advised by forwarding to Meda copies of all official correspondence (including, but not limited to, applications, office actions, responses, etc.) relating to the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights, and shall provide Meda an opportunity to comment on any proposed responses, voluntary amendments, submissions, or other actions of any kind to be made with respect to Licensed Patent Rights.

In the event that BDSI desires to abandon any Licensed Patent Rights and/or the Marks in the Territory, BDSI shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Meda of its intention to abandon. In the event that BDSI provides such notice to Meda, then Meda shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon written notice to BDSI, to assume responsibility for the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance thereof, provided, however that such assumption shall include Meda’s acknowledgement of its continued indemnification responsibilities as described in Section 10.02. Upon Meda’s assumption of responsibility for the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance of such Licensed Patent Rights or Marks pursuant to the foregoing, Meda will thereafter use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to prosecute and maintain the same at its own cost to the extent that Meda desires to do so and Meda shall keep BDSI and CDC advised by forwarding to them copies of all official correspondence (including, but not limited to, applications, office actions, responses, etc.) relating to the prosecution and maintenance of such Licensed Patent Rights, and shall provide CDC and BDSI an opportunity to comment on any proposed responses, voluntary amendments, submissions, or other actions of any kind to be made with respect to such Licensed Patent Rights.

potential or actual infringement, using counsel reasonably acceptable to BDSI, and Meda shall solely bear the cost with respect thereto. If Meda is unable to initiate or to prosecute such action solely in its own name or it is otherwise Commercially Reasonable and reasonably advisable to obtain an effective remedy, BDSI shall join such action and will execute, and cause its Affiliates to execute, all documents necessary for Meda to initiate litigation to prosecute and maintain such action. The above notwithstanding, Meda may only settle or enter into any form of voluntary disposition of any such claim with BDSI’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that any such settlement or voluntary disposition which (i) admits fault or wrongdoing, or incurs liability, on the part of BDSI or (ii) adversely affects any of the Licensed Patent Rights, Licensed Know-How, or Marks shall require BDSI’s prior written consent, which BDSI may withhold in its sole discretion. BDSI shall provide, at Meda’s expense, such assistance and cooperation to Meda as may be necessary to successfully prosecute any action against such Third Party. Any damages, monetary awards, or other amounts recovered or received in settlement by Meda shall be applied proportionately first to defray the unreimbursed costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Meda and BDSI in the action. If any balance remains, Meda shall be entitled to retain an amount equal to *** percent ( *** %) of the portion of such balance with the remaining balance being paid to BDSI by Meda.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Meda wishes BDSI to share the costs of pursuing any such actual, potential, or alleged infringer of the Licensed Patent Rights and/or Marks in the Territory, it shall provide written notice thereof to BDSI within *** of Meda’s becoming aware of the actual, potential, or alleged infringement. Upon written notice thereof, the Parties shall enter into good faith discussions for a period not to exceed *** concerning the possibility and terms of any such cost-sharing, provided that (i) neither Party shall have any obligation to enter into such an arrangement and (ii) any such arrangement will provide for the sharing of any damages, monetary awards, or other amounts recovered or received in settlement of such matter in a manner, based on the portion of such costs to be shared by BDSI, proportionately more favorable to BDSI than the sharing of any such damages, monetary awards, or other amounts recovered or received in settlement absent such cost-sharing, as contemplated under the first paragraph of this Section 7.03.

In the event Meda fails to institute proceedings or undertake reasonable efforts to terminate any such Third Party infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights and/or Marks in the Territory within *** of the later of: (a) receiving notification from BDSI of any such infringement or (b) sending notice to BDSI of such action, or the Parties are unable to reach an agreement concerning the sharing of the costs of pursuing any actual, potential, or alleged infringer (and increased share of any proceeds from such action for the benefit of BDSI, as contemplated by the preceding paragraph) within *** of Meda’s notice indicating its desire to enter into such discussions, BDSI may take (but shall have no obligation to take) such action as it deems appropriate, including the filing of a lawsuit against such Third Party. In such event Meda will provide such assistance and cooperation to BDSI as may be necessary, at BDSI’s cost and expense, and BDSI shall be entitled to retain the entire balance of any recovery or settlement from any such action.

The above notwithstanding, if Meda elects not to defend a Third Party Claim that is not based upon, or does not result from, activities of BDSI or a Third Party under an agreement between BDSI and such Third Party, or the grant of rights from BDSI to such Third Party, and involves a material adverse risk to either Party or Net Sales notwithstanding the survivability provisions of Section 13.06(e), the License may be terminated or rendered nonexclusive by BDSI to the extent Arius’ License (as defined in Section 3.02 of the Arius Two Agreement) is terminated or rendered nonexclusive by Arius Two pursuant to Section 7.04 of the Arius Two Agreement, upon notice to Meda within *** of Meda’s election not to defend such Third Party Claim, and, in any event and independent of (i) any action or lack thereof by Arius Two under the Arius Two Agreement and (ii) any termination or rendering nonexclusive of the License by BDSI pursuant to the foregoing, BDSI shall have the right to control the defense of such claims at BDSI’s cost and expense using counsel of its own choice.

4.7 Meda shall return to BDSI, at BDSI’s cost, any Products rejected properly in accordance with this Article 4, in which case BDSI shall, consistent with Section 4.6 above, refund the amount actually paid by Meda to BDSI for such Products or promptly replace such Products at no additional charge, and pay to Meda the actual, reasonable, documented cost incurred by Meda in effecting the return of such Products.

4.8 If, with respect to any Products which have been replaced and/or for which the amount actually paid by Meda therefore has been refunded is, following investigation, found by reasonable, independent, neutral, third party laboratory analysis pursuant to generally-accepted scientific methods, to have complied with the applicable Product Specifications, Packaging Specifications, and all regulatory requirements (including but not limited to those described in applicable Governmental Approvals and GMP), Meda shall:

(a) accept those Products as part of the next order and, if no Order will be placed before the termination of this Agreement, pay BDSI the applicable amount therefore pursuant to this Agreement, and

(b) refund any additional amount paid by BDSI to Meda with respect thereto.

4.9 If BDSI determines that it will not be able to supply Products to Meda in material satisfaction of the most recent Orders and/or Forecast, BDSI shall promptly notify Meda in writing of such determination, which notice shall provide Meda with the details on the extent of the expected shortfall of supply, the causes of such inability to supply, and BDSI’s proposed solution to the problem. Upon such notice of a supply problem, or in any event upon occurrence of any Back-Up Trigger (as defined below), (i) Meda and BDSI will immediately meet and work together, in good faith, to identify an appropriate resolution to the supply problem, provided that Section 4.10 shall remain applicable with respect to the occurrence of such Back-Up Trigger in the absence of any such resolution, and (ii) BDSI shall, during any such shortfall of supply, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to continue to supply to Meda Products in an amount that is
