Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents from vendors that are necessary in order to provide any of the Services to Ironwood under this Agreement; provided, however, that a Service Provider will not be required to pay any out-of-pocket fees to any vendor in order to obtain such consent, but will, instead, request that Ironwood pay such out-of-pocket fees.  In the event that a Service Provider is unable to obtain any such consent, Cyclerion’s sole liability and obligation and Ironwood’s sole remedy will be to require the Parties hereto to work together to agree upon a commercially reasonable alternative arrangement, which may include identification of alternate resources and equivalent services from such alternative resources on commercially reasonable terms.  Any costs specified in the second sentence of Section 3.1 and any actual out-of-pocket fees levied on a Service Provider (a) in connection with its efforts to obtain and implement such consents and (b) in connection with the implementation of any such commercially reasonable alternative arrangement, will be borne by Ironwood.  For the avoidance of doubt, any costs incurred by a Service Provider in connection with obtaining consents prior to the Distribution Effective Time will be borne by Cyclerion.
