redacted to protect third party confidential information provided
that such redaction does not materially diminish the ability for
Licensor to conduct a meaningful verification. The Accountant shall
be entitled to take copies of such records and books solely for the
purposes of carrying out the verification and shall only disclose
the records to the Licensor to the extent necessary to support its
position that the statement is inaccurate (including in the course
of legal proceedings) and then only to the Personnel directly
responsible for such matters. Each such inspection shall be limited
to pertinent books and records as the Accountant may require for
verification purposes only. Licensor shall be responsible
for
|
|
|
|
|
ensuring that each designee or
representative of Licensor that conducts an inspection and audit of
the Licensee records shall comply with the confidentiality
obligations set out in this Agreement.

|
8.3
|

The
Licensor shall be entitled to have inspections carried out pursuant
to Clause 8.2 once every calendar year (and once following
termination or expiry of this Agreement) on up to three calendar
years worth of statements, on giving the Licensee and its
Sub-Licensees 30 days’ written notice prior to each
inspection.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
8.4
|
|
The
Licensor shall bear the cost of carrying out the inspections
referred to in Clause 8.2 unless there is an error of more than
7.5% in any four consecutive royalty statements provided by the
Licensee or its Sub-Licensees in which case the Licensee shall
immediately pay to the Licensor the costs of making the relevant
inspection. If the Licensor’s inspection shows that the
Licensee has paid more than the amounts properly due under this
Agreement then the Licensee shall be entitled to deduct such excess
from any sums payable to the Licensor under this Agreement. If the
Licensor’s inspection reveals a deficit then, without
prejudice to any other right or remedy available to the Licensor,
the Licensee shall promptly make good the deficit; and pay interest
on the deficit at London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (6 months) plus
5% from the date upon which the deficit arose to the date upon
which the deficit was paid.
