If any VAT is chargeable in respect of any Payments, Biohaven shall pay VAT at the applicable rate in respect of any such Payments following the receipt of a VAT invoice in the appropriate form issued by Highlightll in respect of those Payments, such VAT to be payable on the later of the due date of the payment of the Payments to which such VAT relates and [***] after the receipt by Biohaven of the applicable invoice relating to that VAT payment.
4.8.Interest on Late Payments. Any amount owed by Biohaven to Highlightll under this Agreement that is not paid on or before the date such payment is due as set forth herein shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the one month USD-LIBOR as quoted on Bloomberg (or if it no longer exists, a similarly authoritative source) plus two percentage points.

4.10.Audit. At the request of Highlightll or, solely in the event of a Highlightll Territory Clinical Event, Biohaven, the other Party shall and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their Sublicensees to, permit an independent auditor designated by the auditing Party and reasonably acceptable to the audited Party, or permit the auditing Party at the audited Party’s sole discretion, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice of at least [***], to audit the books and records maintained pursuant to Section 4.9 to ensure the accuracy of all reports and payments made hereunder. Except as provided below, the cost of this audit shall be borne by the auditing Party, unless the audit reveals, with respect to a certain Calendar Quarter, a variance of more than [***] from the reported amounts for such Calendar Quarter, in which case the audited Party shall bear the cost of the audit. Unless disputed pursuant to Section 4.11 below, if such audit concludes that (i) additional amounts were owed by the audited Party, the audited Party shall pay the additional amounts, with interest from the date originally due as provided in Section 4.8 or (ii) excess payments were made by the audited Party, then the audited Party may credit such excess payments against future royalties, provided that if no future royalties are anticipated, the audited Party may request that the auditing party reimburse such excess payments, in either case ((i) or (ii)), within [***] after the date on which such audit is completed by the auditing Party.
4.11.Audit Dispute. In the event of a dispute with respect to any audit under Section 4.10, the Parties shall work in good faith to resolve the disagreement. If the Parties are unable to reach a

25



counterclaim in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim, at Biohaven’s sole cost and expense, using counsel of Biohaven’s choice provided that, if Highlightll reasonably believes that any proposed action to prosecute any Infringement with respect to the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in the Biohaven Territory may materially adversely affect the scope or validity of the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents in the Highlightll Territory, the Parties will confer in good faith prior to Biohaven taking such action. If Biohaven declines to prosecute any Infringement with respect to the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents in the Biohaven Territory, then Highlightll reserves the right to prosecute the Infringement and Highlightll may (but will have no obligation to) prosecute such infringement at its own cost and expense.
(ii)As between the Parties, Highlightll shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to prosecute any Infringement with respect to the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in the Highlightll Territory, including as a defense or counterclaim in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim, at Highlightll’s sole cost and expense, using counsel of Highlightll’s choice; provided that, if Biohaven reasonably believes that any proposed action to prosecute any Infringement with respect to the Licensed Patents and and Joint Patents in the Highlightll Territory may materially adversely affect the scope or validity of the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents in the Biohaven Territory, the Parties will confer in good faith prior to Highlightll taking such action taking into account the economic value of the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in the Biohaven Territory relative to the Highlightll Territory. If Highlightll declines to prosecute any Infringement with respect to the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents in the Highlightll Territory, then Biohaven reserves the right to prosecute the Infringement and Biohaven may (but will have no obligation to) prosecute such infringement at its own cost and expense.
(iii)For purposes of Section 5.3, the Party prosecuting any Infringement pursuant to the foregoing sentences with respect to a Patent shall be the “Enforcing Party.” In the event Highlightll prosecutes any such Infringement in the Biohaven Territory or Highlightll Territory, Biohaven shall have the right to join as a party to such claim, suit or proceeding and participate with its own counsel at its sole cost and expense; provided that Highlightll shall retain control of the prosecution of such claim, suit or proceeding, including the response to any defense or defense of any counterclaim raised in connection therewith. In the event Biohaven prosecutes any such Infringement in the Biohaven Territory or Highlightll Territory, Highlightll shall have the right to join as a party to such claim, suit or proceeding and participate with its own counsel at its sole cost and expense; provided that Biohaven shall retain control of the prosecution of such claim, suit or proceeding, including the response to any defense or defense of any counterclaim raised in connection therewith.
(iv)Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party will enforce a Licensed Patent or Joint Patent that contains a Valid Claim that covers both Licensed Compounds and other compounds for alleged or threatened infringement in its Territory without the prior consent of the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

Unless otherwise set forth herein, the Enforcing Party shall have the right to settle such claim; provided that neither Party shall have the right to settle any Infringement litigation under this Section 5.3 in a manner that has a material adverse effect on the rights or interest of the other Party or in a manner that imposes any costs or liability on or involves any admission by, the other Party, without the express written consent of such other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In connection with any activities with respect to an Infringement action prosecuted by the applicable Enforcing Party pursuant to this Section 5.3 involving Patents Controlled by or licensed under Article 2 to the other Party, the Enforcing Party shall (i) consult with the other Party as to the strategy for the prosecution of such claim, suit or proceeding, (ii) consider in good faith any comments from the other Party with respect thereto and (iii) keep the other Party reasonably informed of any material steps taken and provide copies of all material documents filed, in connection with such action.

Any remainder after such reimbursement is made shall be retained by the Enforcing Party; provided, however, that any award or settlement received by; (i) Biohaven will be treated as Net Sales and be subject to royalties for the Calendar Quarter in which such amounts are received by Biohaven, and (ii) Highlightll will be treated as Net Sales subject to fees under Section 4.4.2 for the Calendar Quarter in which such amounts are received by Highlightll in the event of a Highlightll Territory Clinical Event.
5.4.Infringement Claims by Third Parties. If the Exploitation of a Licensed Product in the Territory pursuant to this Agreement results in, or is reasonably expected to result in, any claim, suit or proceeding by a Third Party alleging infringement by Biohaven or any of its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”), including any defense or counterclaim in connection with an Infringement action initiated pursuant to Section 5.3, the Party first becoming aware of such alleged infringement shall promptly notify the other Party thereof in writing. As between the Parties, Biohaven shall be responsible for defending any such claim, suit or proceeding at its sole cost and expense, using counsel of Biohaven’s choice. Highlightll may participate in any such claim, suit or proceeding with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense; provided that Biohaven shall retain the right to control such claim, suit or proceeding. Highlightll shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, assist and cooperate with Biohaven, as Biohaven may reasonably request from time to time, in connection with its activities set forth in this Section, including where necessary, furnishing a power of attorney solely for such purpose or joining in, or being named as a necessary party to, such action, providing

Biohaven shall keep Highlightll reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding. Biohaven agrees to provide Highlightll with copies of all material pleadings filed in such action and to allow Highlightll reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the claims. Biohaven shall have the right to settle such Third Party Infringement Claims; provided that Biohaven shall not have the right to settle any Third Party Infringement Claim in a manner that has a material adverse effect on the rights or interest of Highlightll or in a manner that imposes any costs or liability on or involves any admission by Highlightll, without the express written consent of Highlightll (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Any damages, including royalties incurred in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim defended under this Section 5.4 shall be borne by Biohaven.
5.5.Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any alleged or threatened assertion of invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Licensed Patents or Joint Patents by a Third Party and of which such Party becomes aware.

5.6.Third Party Patent Rights. If in the reasonable opinion of Biohaven, the Exploitation of the Licensed Compounds or Licensed Product in the Biohaven Territory by Biohaven, any of its Affiliates or any of its or their Sublicensees infringes or is reasonably expected to infringe any Patent of a Third Party in any country in the Biohaven Territory (such right, a “Third Party Patent Right”), then, as between the Parties, Biohaven shall have the right, but not the obligation, to negotiate and obtain a license from such Third Party owning such Third Party Patent Right as necessary or desirable for Biohaven or its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees to Exploit the Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products in the Biohaven Field in such country; provided that (i) subject to Section 4.4.4 (as applicable), as between the Parties, Biohaven shall bear all expenses incurred in connection therewith, including any royalties, milestones or other payments incurred under any such license. Biohaven will notify Highlightll in advance of entering into any such license for a Third Party Patent Right to provide Highlightll an opportunity to negotiate an agreement with the Third Party for the Highlightll Territory. Upon reasonable request by Highlightll, Biohaven will provide a copy of any such license to Highlightll, which Highlightll will treat as the Confidential Information of Biohaven.

Specific aspects or details of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because the Confidential Information is embraced by more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party. Further, any combination of Confidential Information shall not be considered in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because individual elements of such Confidential Information are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party unless the combination and its principles are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

Neither Party shall be required to seek the permission of the other Party to repeat any information regarding the terms of this Agreement or any amendment hereto that has already been publicly disclosed by such Party or by the other Party, in accordance with this Section 6.4; provided that such information remains accurate as of such time and provided the frequency and form of such disclosure are reasonable.

Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the claim and the nature and amount of such Loss (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Loss is known at such time). The Indemnified Party shall furnish promptly to the indemnifying Party copies of all papers and official documents received in respect of any Losses and Third Party Claims.
8.3.2.Control of Defense. The indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [***] after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice; provided that the indemnifying Party expressly agrees to defend the claim against the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of the Third Party Claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party; provided that it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

the indemnifying Party in writing (in which case, the defense shall be controlled as provided in Section 8.3.2), (ii) the indemnifying Party has failed to assume (or diligently continue) the defense and employ counsel in accordance with Section 8.3.2 (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense) or (iii) the interests of the indemnitee and the indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under Applicable Law, ethical rules or equitable principles (in which case, the Indemnified Party shall control its defense).
8.3.4.Settlement. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 8.3.2, the indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss; provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If the indemnifying Party does not assume and conduct the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
8.3.5.Cooperation.

Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to the indemnifying Party to and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and making Indemnified Parties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and the indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its, its Affiliates’ and its and their (sub)licensees’/licensors’ or their respective directors’, officers’, employees’ and agents’, as applicable, reasonable costs and verifiable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.
8.3.6.Expenses. Except as provided above, the costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates and its and their (sub)licensees/licensors and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, as applicable, in connection with any claim shall be reimbursed on a Calendar Quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.
8.4.Special, Indirect and Other Losses.
