Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event may Licensor exercise the Put Right with respect to any Licensed Patents that are involved in any threatened or actual action or proceeding other than either an action or proceeding that is commenced by Licensee or an action or proceeding that directly relates to an action or proceeding threatened or commenced by Licensee with respect to infringement of the Licensed Patents.
