[…]

8.4. If you do not protect, manage or commercialise any Wellcome-funded IP to our reasonable satisfaction, then we will have the right by giving you six months’ written notice to protect, manage and commercialise the Wellcome-funded IP on your behalf. We may exercise this right sooner where we reasonably consider that the opportunity to protect, manage or commercialise the Wellcome-funded IP for the public benefit could be lost if more immediate action is not taken. You agree to do, and will ensure that the Grantholder and any Participants and Organisations do, all acts required to assist us in such protection, management and commercialisation.
