PolyOne shall provide Integral with a written receipt or other documentary evidence of payment from the taxing authority, and cooperate with Integral in the exemption from, avoidance, or mitigation of such withholding tax requirement (to the extent allowed by applicable law) and in obtaining any available corresponding tax credit.

6.3.2

(d)

such other details as are reasonably necessary for an accurate accounting of the payment of Royalty Fees due for the applicable Royalty Period.

6.4

Records, Audits, and Payment Corrections.

6.4.1

Records. PolyOne shall keep, in accordance with its standard policies, practices, and procedures for accounting and financial reporting, those books and records sufficient for verifying the accuracy and completeness of any Royalty Report and PolyOne’s calculations of Royalty Fees (“Records”). PolyOne shall preserve Records for no less than two (2) years following the end of the Royalty Period to which they pertain.

6.4.2

Audit. At any time within one (1) year after receiving any Royalty Report from PolyOne, Integral may nominate and, subject to PolyOne’s approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld, retain an independent certified public accounting firm (“Auditor”) for purposes of verifying the accuracy and completeness of the Royalty Report and PolyOne’s calculations of Royalty Fees paid in accordance therewith. Upon thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice from Integral, PolyOne shall provide the Auditor, during normal business hours and subject to PolyOne’s reasonable confidentiality requirements, with reasonable access to the Records for the applicable Royalty Period for the Auditor’s inspection. Upon conclusion of the Auditor’s inspection, the Auditor shall provide a written report of its findings, which shall be limited to the applicable Royalty Period, to Integral and PolyOne. Integral shall bear all costs and expenses of the Auditor unless the Auditor’s written report concludes that PolyOne has underpaid Royalty Fees for the applicable Royalty Period by more than the lesser of ten percent (10%) or fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000 USD), in which event PolyOne shall bear all costs and expenses of the Auditor. Such inspection by an Auditor shall occur no more frequently than one time per calendar year.

6.4.3

Payment Corrections.

6.4.3.1

Underpayments. If the Auditor’s written report provided pursuant to Section 6.4.2 concludes that PolyOne’s payment of Royalty Fees is deficient, PolyOne shall pay to Integral the deficient amount within one (1) calendar month after PolyOne’s receipt of the Auditor’s written report.

6.4.3.2

Overpayments.

6.4.3.2.1

Following Audit. If the Auditor’s written report provided pursuant to Section 6.4.2 concludes that PolyOne’s payment of Royalty Fees is in excess of the required payment amount, Integral shall pay to PolyOne the excess amount within one (1) calendar month after Integral’s receipt of the Auditor’s written report.

6.4.3.2.2

PolyOne Correction. At any time within one (1) year after providing any Royalty Report to Integral, PolyOne may provide Integral with a corrected Royalty Report in the event that PolyOne determines its payment of Royalty Fees is in excess of the required amount by more than ten percent (10%) for the applicable Royalty Period as supported by applicable Records and demonstrated by the corrected Royalty Report. Within one (1) calendar month after Integral’s receipt of the corrected Royalty Report, Integral shall, at PolyOne’s option, pay to PolyOne the excess amount or credit PolyOne for the excess amount against any future payments of Royalty Fees. Otherwise, within one (1) calendar month after Integral’s receipt of the corrected Royalty Report, Integral may nominate an Auditor pursuant to Section 6.4.2 for purposes of reviewing the accuracy and completeness of the corrected Royalty Report.

6.4.4

Acceptance. The failure of Integral to request verification of any Royalty Report by an Auditor within the one (1) year period set forth in Section 6.4.2 is deemed acceptance by Integral of the accuracy and completeness of the Royalty Report and the payments made by PolyOne in accordance with the Royalty Report, except in the event any Royalty Report is, in whole or in part, demonstrated to be fraudulent.

7.1

PolyOne Obligations. All Know-How disclosed to PolyOne and its participating Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated by PolyOne and its participating Affiliates as Integral’s Confidential Information subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Article 9.

7.2

Integral Obligations. During the Term, subject to Integral’s limited right to disclose the Know-How to a third party pursuant to Section 7.3, Integral shall (a) protect the Know-How using efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy, and (b) preserve the Know-How’s independent economic value, actual or potential, that derives from it not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means, by other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.

7.3

No Third Party Recipients in the Field. During the Term, Integral shall not disclose the Know-How or any portion thereof to a third party for any use in the Field in the Territory or for any other use or purpose not consistent with the License or PolyOne’s other rights under this Agreement.

All costs and expenses of any such action (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be borne by the Party instituting the action, or, if the Parties elect to cooperate in instituting and maintaining such action, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the Parties in such proportions as they may agree in writing. Each Party shall execute all necessary and proper documents and take such actions as shall be appropriate to allow the other Party to institute and prosecute such action. Any recovery received pursuant to such action (whether by way of settlement or otherwise) shall be paid to the Party who instituted and maintained such action, or, if both Parties instituted and maintained such action, such recovery shall be allocated among the Parties in proportion to their respective contributions to the costs and expenses incurred in such action.
