PAYMENTS; BOOKS AND RECORDS 5.1 Payment Method. All payments under this Agreement shall be made by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Array. All dollar amounts specified in this Agreement, and all payments made hereunder, are and shall be made in U.S. dollars. Any payments due under this Agreement which are not paid by the date such payments are due under this Agreement shall bear interest to the extent permitted by applicable law at the U.S. prime rate per annum quoted in the "Money Rates" column of The Wall Street Journal (U.S., Western Edition) on the first business day after such payment is due, plus an additional two percentage points (2%), calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent. This Section 5.1 shall in no way limit any other remedies available to either party. -8- CONFIDENTIAL [***] CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED OF REDACTED PORTIONS 5.2 Currency Conversion. If any currency conversion shall be required in connection with the calculation of amounts payable hereunder, such conversion shall be made using the average of the buying and selling exchange rate for conversion of the foreign currency in U.S. dollars, quoted for current transactions reported in The Wall Street Journal (U.S., Western Edition) for the last business day of the calendar quarter to which such payment pertains. 5.3 Taxes. (a) Generally. Each party shall bear and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 5.3, pay any and all taxes, duties, levies, and other similar charges (and any related interest and penalties), however designated, imposed on that party as a result of the existence or operation of this Agreement. If laws or regulations require that taxes be withheld, the paying party will (i) deduct those taxes from the remittable payment, (ii) timely pay the taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) send proof of payment to the other party within sixty (60) days following that payment. (b) Certain Payments. Notwithstanding Section 5.3(a) above, all payments by Takeda specified in Article 4 above are expressed as net amounts and shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes, which are otherwise imposed on payments to Array, shall be the sole responsibility of Takeda. Takeda shall provide Array with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority or such other evidence as is reasonably requested by Array to establish that such taxes have been paid. Takeda may provide written notice to Array of any foreign tax credits that may be available for use by Array to offset any withholding taxes paid by Takeda under this Agreement, and upon any such notification, Array shall use its best efforts, at Takeda's expense, to obtain such foreign tax credit. If Array uses a foreign tax credit received by Array as a result of the payment of withholding taxes by Takeda and thereby reduces the amount of U.S. income tax that Array otherwise would have paid, Array shall refund to Takeda the amount of such reduction with respect to such foreign tax credit. 5.4 Royalties. (a) Quarterly Reports. Beginning with the first quarter in which a sale of a Lead Product occurs, Takeda shall make quarterly reports to Array within sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar quarter, setting forth in reasonable detail, a calculation of any Net Sales in such quarter. Concurrently with making such report, Takeda shall remit payment to Array for any royalty due under Section 4.3 above. (b) Records; Inspection. Takeda shall keep, and require its Affiliates and licensees to keep, complete, true and accurate books of accounts and records for the purpose of determining payments due pursuant to Section 4.3 of this Agreement, if any. Such books and records shall be kept for at least five (5) years following the end of the calendar quarter to which they pertain. Such records will be open for inspection at the principal place of business of Takeda during such five (5) year period by an independent auditor chosen by Array and reasonably acceptable to -9- CONFIDENTIAL [***] CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED OF REDACTED PORTIONS Takeda for the purpose of verifying the amounts payable by Array hereunder. Such inspections may be made no more than once each calendar year, at reasonable times and on reasonable notice. Array's independent auditor shall be obligated to execute a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to commencing any such inspection and shall inform Array only of the accuracy of payments due pursuant to Section 4.3. Inspections conducted under this Section 5.4 shall be at the expense of Array, unless a variation or error producing an underpayment in amounts payable exceeding ten percent (10%) of the amount paid for the period covered by the inspection is established in the course of any such inspection, whereupon all costs relating to the inspection for such period and any underpaid amounts that are discovered will be paid by Takeda, together with interest on such underpaid amounts at the rate set forth in Section 5.1 above. The parties will endeavor to minimize disruption of Takeda's normal business activities to the extent reasonably practicable. 6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 6.1 Ownership of Inventions; Disclosure.

In addition, all compositions of matter within the Collaboration Technology made by Array employees (solely or jointly with Takeda) that fall within the scope of a patent claim that covers a Lead Compound shall be solely owned by Takeda, whether or not such compositions of matter have been synthesized in the course of the Research Program, and Array hereby assigns all of its rights therein to Takeda. Nothing herein shall prevent Takeda from filing a patent or patent application claiming a composition of matter, or method of use thereof, on any invention made solely by Takeda, whether or not such compositions of matter have not been synthesized in the course of the Research Program. 6.2 Patent Prosecution. (a) Jointly-Owned Inventions. Takeda shall have the first right to control the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of patent applications and patents directed to jointly-owned Collaboration Technology, and conducting any interferences, re-examinations, -10- CONFIDENTIAL [***] CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED OF REDACTED PORTIONS reissues and oppositions with respect thereto.
