(b)

In-License Agreements.

(1)

If VistaGen or any of its Affiliates negotiates with a Third Party at arms’ length to obtain a license to any Know-How or Patent that are necessary or reasonably useful for the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or other Exploitation of the Compound or any Licensed Product (such Know-How or Patent, “VistaGen Third Party IP”, such license, an “In-License Agreement”), then VistaGen shall promptly notify EverInsight and identify the relevant VistaGen Third Party IP, with a copy to the JSC. The applicable VistaGen Third Party IP shall be included in the license granted to EverInsight under Section 2.1 (License to EverInsight) and considered VistaGen Patents and VistaGen Know-How, respectively, only if VistaGen discloses the substantive terms of the In-License Agreement to EverInsight, which VistaGen hereby agrees to do, and EverInsight agrees in writing to (A) comply with all the relevant obligations of such In-License Agreement, and (B) pay [*****] of the portion of all upfront, milestone, royalty and other payments under the In-License Agreement that are allocable to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory; provided, however, that, such upfront, milestone, royalty and other payments

-17-

should be (x) at fair market value for such a license in the Territory; and (y) directly attributable to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory by EverInsight or any of its Affiliates or any Sublicensees; and (z) for any such payment that is applicable to the Respective Territories of both Parties (such as upfront payment), such payment shall be allocated between the Parties’ Respective Territories based on the relative value of the market for the Licensed Product in each Party’s Respective Territory, and EverInsight shall pay [*****] of the portion allocable to the Territory (for clarity, VistaGen shall be solely responsible for, and EverInsight shall have no obligation to pay any portion of, all such payment that is not allocable to the Territory, such as royalty payment for the sale of Licensed Product outside the Territory). For the avoidance of doubt, if EverInsight reasonably determines that such VistaGen Third Party IP under the In-License Agreement is not necessary for the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory, EverInsight has the right not to pay any costs associated with such In-License Agreement, in which case such VistaGen Third Party IP shall not be included in the license granted to EverInsight under Section 2.1 (License to EverInsight) and shall not be considered to be VistaGen Patents and VistaGen Know-How.

(2)

If EverInsight or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees negotiates with a Third Party at arms’ length to obtain a license to any Know-How or Patent that are necessary or reasonably useful for the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or other Exploitation of the Compound or any Licensed Product and actually applies such Know-How or Patent in the Development, Manufacture, Commercialization or other Exploitation of the Compound or any Licensed Product (such Know-How or Patent, “EverInsight Third Party IP”, such license, an “EverInsight In-License Agreement”), then EverInsight shall promptly notify VistaGen and identify the relevant EverInsight Third Party IP, with a copy to the JSC. The applicable EverInsight Third Party IP shall be included in the license granted by EverInsight to VistaGen under Section 2.2 (License to VistaGen) and considered EverInsight Patents and EverInsight Know-How, respectively, only if EverInsight discloses the substantive terms of such EverInsight In-License Agreement to VistaGen, which EverInsight hereby agrees to do, and VistaGen agrees in writing to (A) comply with all the relevant obligations of such EverInsight In-License Agreement; (B) pay [*****] of the portion of all upfront, milestone, royalty and other payments under the EverInsight In-License Agreement that are allocable to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory, which VistaGen hereby agrees to do; and (C) pay [*****] of the portion of all upfront, milestone, royalty and other payments applicable to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field outside the Territory; provided, however, that, such upfront, milestone, royalty and other payments under clause (B) above should be (x) at fair market value for such a license in the

-18-

Territory; and (y) directly attributable to the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory by EverInsight or any of its Affiliates or any Sublicensees; and (z) for any such payment that is applicable to the Respective Territories of both Parties (such as upfront payment), such payment shall be allocated between the Parties’ Respective Territories based on the relative value of the market for the Licensed Product in each Party’s Respective Territory, and VistaGen shall pay [*****] of the portion allocable to the Territory (for clarity, pursuant to clause (C) above, VistaGen shall be solely responsible for, and shall reimburse EverInsight for, all such payment that is not allocable to the Territory, such as royalty payment for the sale of Licensed Product outside the Territory). For the avoidance of doubt, if VistaGen reasonably determines that such EverInsight Third Party IP is not necessary for the Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of the Compound or any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field outside the Territory, VistaGen has the right not to pay the costs associated with such EverInsight In-License Agreement outside the Territory under clause (C) above (for further clarity, VistaGen shall remain obligated to pay its share of the costs associated with such EverInsight In-License Agreement in the Territory under clause (B) above), in which case such EverInsight Third-Party IP shall not be included in the license granted to VistaGen under Section 2.2 (License to VistaGen) and shall not be considered to be EverInsight Patents and EverInsight Know-How. In the event that VistaGen does agree to accept such Third-Party license outside of the Territory, the provisions of clauses (3), (4) and (5) of this Section 2.4(b) (In-License Agreements) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any such Third Party license.

(3)

Subject to this Section 2.4(b) (In-License Agreements), the licenses granted by VistaGen in Section 2.1 (License to EverInsight) include sublicenses solely under the applicable license rights granted to VistaGen or its Affiliates by Third Parties under the In-License Agreements. Any Sublicense with respect to Know-How or Patents of a Third Party hereunder and any right of EverInsight (if any) to grant a further sublicense thereunder, shall be subject and subordinate to the terms and conditions of the In-License Agreement under which such sublicense is granted and shall be effective solely to the extent permitted under the terms of such agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, in the event and to the extent that any In-License Agreement requires that particular terms or conditions of such In-License Agreement be contained or incorporated in any agreement granting a sublicense thereunder, such terms and conditions are hereby deemed to be incorporated herein by reference and made applicable to the sublicense granted herein under such In-License Agreement.

(4)

The Parties shall cooperate with each other in good faith to support each other in negotiating rights under EverInsight Third Party IP in order for VistaGen to obtain such rights outside of the Territory and in complying with VistaGen’s and its Affiliates’ obligations under each In-License Agreement.

If, during the following Calendar Quarter, EverInsight discovers that it reported an incorrect amount of Net Sales in the Territory and/or the amounts payment due on such Net Sales in the immediately preceding Calendar Quarter, then EverInsight may, subject to review by VistaGen, adjust and reconcile any such calculation of Net Sales and/or any such underpayment or overpayment of royalty payments due, and shall timely report the same within thirty (30) calendar days after such following Calendar Quarter.

8.5

Royalty Adjustments. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, royalties due hereunder are subject to adjustment as set forth below (such adjustments to be prorated for the Calendar Quarter in which the adjustment becomes applicable):

(a)

Royalty Adjustment for Patent Expiration. In the event that in any jurisdiction in the Territory in any Calendar Quarter during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product, there is no Valid Claim that provides effective market exclusivity for such Licensed Product (or the Compound contained in such Licensed Product) in such jurisdiction in such Calendar Quarter, then the royalty rate set forth in Section 8.4(a) (Royalty Rate) with respect to such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction in such Calendar Quarter shall be reduced by [*****];

(b)

Royalty Adjustment for Generic Competition. In the event that in any jurisdiction in the Territory in any Calendar Quarter during the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product, there is Generic Competition for such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction in such Calendar Quarter, then the royalty rate set forth in Section 8.4(a) (Royalty Rate) with respect to such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction in such Calendar Quarter shall be reduced by [*****] (provided however that the royalty reduction under Section 8.5(a) shall not apply to such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction in such Calendar Quarter if the royalty reduction under Section 8.5(b) applies).

8.6

Currency; Exchange Rate; Payments. All payments required to be made by EverInsight under this Agreement shall be made in Dollars. All payments payable to, or invoiced from or on behalf of, VistaGen shall be paid bank wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more bank accounts of VistaGen as designated in written notice from VistaGen. If any currency conversion shall be required in connection with any payment hereunder, such conversion shall be made by using the exchange rates at the closing on the last Business Day of the Calendar Quarter to which such payment relates as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the following day.

8.7

Late Payments. Any payments or portions thereof due hereunder that are not paid on the date such payments are due under this Agreement shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the prime rate as published by The Wall Street Journal or any

-38-

successor thereto on the first day of each Calendar Quarter in which such payments are overdue calculated on the number of days such payment is delinquent.

8.8

Taxes.

(a)

Taxes on Income. Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 8.8 (Taxes), each Party shall solely bear and pay all Taxes imposed on such Party’s net income or gain (however denominated) arising directly or indirectly from the activities of the Parties under this Agreement.

(b)

Tax Payments. The upfront payment, milestone payments, royalties, and any other payment payable by EverInsight to VistaGen pursuant to this Agreement (each, a “Payment”) shall be paid free and clear of any and all Taxes (which, for clarity, shall be the responsibility of EverInsight), except for any Taxes required by Applicable Laws to be withheld or deducted. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and use reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce Tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of the payments made under this Agreement. To the extent EverInsight is required to deduct and withhold Taxes on any payment to VistaGen, EverInsight shall deduct those Taxes from the remittable payment, pay the Taxes to the proper tax authority in a timely manner, and promptly send proof of payment to VistaGen. VistaGen shall provide EverInsight any tax forms that may be reasonably necessary in order for EverInsight to not withhold tax or to withhold tax at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. VistaGen shall use reasonable efforts to provide any such tax forms to EverInsight in advance of the due date.

8.9

Financial Records and Audit. EverInsight shall (and shall ensure that its Affiliates and Sublicensees will) maintain complete and accurate books and records pertaining to the Commercialization of Licensed Product hereunder, including books and records of invoiced sales and Net Sales of Licensed Product, in sufficient detail to calculate and verify all amounts payable hereunder and in sufficient detail to permit VistaGen to confirm the accuracy of any royalty payments, other amounts paid or payable under this Agreement and to verify the achievement of Milestone Events under this Agreement. EverInsight shall and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their Sublicensees to, retain such books and records until the later of (a) three (3) years after the end of the period to which such books and records pertain; (b) the expiration of the applicable tax statute of limitations (or any extensions thereof); and (c) for such period as may be required by Applicable Laws. Upon at least thirty (30) Business Days’ prior notice, such records shall be open for examination, during regular business hours, for a period of three (3) Calendar Years from the end of the Calendar Year to which such records pertain, and not more often than once each Calendar Year, by an independent and internationally recognized certified public accountant selected by VistaGen and reasonably acceptable to EverInsight, for the sole purpose of verifying for VistaGen the accuracy of the financial reports furnished by EverInsight under this Agreement or of any payments made, or required to be made, by EverInsight to VistaGen pursuant to this Agreement. The independent public accountant shall disclose to VistaGen only (x) the accuracy of Net Sales reported and the basis for royalty, Milestone Payments and any other payments made to VistaGen under this Agreement and (y) the difference, if any, by which such reported and paid amounts vary from amounts determined as a result of the audit and the

-39-

details concerning such difference. Except as required by Applicable Laws, no other information shall be provided to VistaGen. No record may be audited more than once. VistaGen shall bear the full cost of such audit unless such audit reveals an underpayment by EverInsight of more than one hundred thousand Dollars ($100,000) or five percent (5%) of the amount actually due (whichever is greater) for any Calendar Year being audited, in which case EverInsight shall reimburse VistaGen for the reasonable costs and expenses for such audit. Unless disputed pursuant to Section 8.10 (Audit Dispute), EverInsight shall pay to VistaGen any underpayment discovered by such audit within thirty (30) days after the accountant’s report, plus interest (as set forth in Section 8.7 (Late Payments)) from the original due date. If the audit reveals an overpayment by EverInsight, then EverInsight may take a credit for such overpayment against any future payments due to VistaGen and, if there will be no future payment due, VistaGen shall promptly refund such overpayment to EverInsight.

8.10

Audit Dispute. If EverInsight disputes the results of any audit conducted pursuant to Section 8.9 (Financial Records and Audit), the Parties shall work in good faith to resolve the disagreement. If the Parties are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of any such dispute within thirty (30) days, the dispute shall be submitted for resolution to a certified public accounting firm jointly selected by each Party’s certified public accountants or to such other Person as the Parties shall mutually agree (the “Auditor”). The decision of the Auditor shall be final and the costs of such procedure shall be borne between the Parties in such manner as the Auditor shall determine. If the Auditor determines that there has been an underpayment by EverInsight, EverInsight shall pay to VistaGen the underpayment within thirty (30) days after the Auditor’s decision, plus interest (as set forth in Section 8.7 (Late Payments)) from the original due date. If the Auditor determines that there has been an overpayment by EverInsight, then EverInsight may take a credit for such overpayment against any future payments due to VistaGen and, if there will be no future payment due, VistaGen shall promptly refund such overpayment to EverInsight.

VistaGen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to control the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of all Licensed Patents and Joint Patents, both in and outside the Territory, by counsel of its own choice, except that such counsel in the Territory shall be reasonably acceptable to EverInsight (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). VistaGen shall consult with EverInsight and keep EverInsight informed of the status of such Patents in the Territory and also in the US and EU, and shall promptly provide EverInsight with all material correspondence received from any patent authority in the Territory and also in the US and EU in connection therewith. In addition, VistaGen shall promptly provide EverInsight with drafts of all proposed material filings and correspondence to any patent authority in the Territory and also in the US and EU with respect to such Patents for EverInsight’s review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the submission of such proposed filings and correspondence. VistaGen shall confer with EverInsight and consider in good faith EverInsight’s comments prior to submitting such filings and correspondence, provided that EverInsight provides such comments within fifteen (15) days (or a shorter period reasonably designated by VistaGen if fifteen (15) days is not practicable given the filing deadline) of receiving the draft filings and correspondence from VistaGen. VistaGen shall also keep EverInsight informed as to the payment schedule for patent maintenance fee for the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents. VistaGen shall be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred by VistaGen for the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents both in and outside the Territory. For the avoidance of doubt, VistaGen shall be responsible for all costs incurred prior to the Effective Date with respect to the prosecution and maintenance of any Licensed

-42-

Patents. If EverInsight reasonably determines that a Licensed Patent added after the Effective Date (other than Patent Rights added by an In-License Agreement that EverInsight has accepted pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(1) (In-License Agreements)) or Joint Patent that EverInsight subsequently determines is of low value to EverInsight, then EverInsight has the right upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to remove such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent from the Licensed Technology hereunder, in which case, following delivery of such notice to VistaGen, (1) the license of Licensed Technology to EverInsight under Section 2.1 (License to EverInsight) as to such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent shall be terminated; (2) the claims of such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent, as the case may be, shall be excluded from Valid Claim; and (3) if requested by VistaGen, EverInsight shall assign, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their (sub)licensees and Sublicensees to so assign, to VistaGen, without additional compensation, EverInsight’s right, title and interest in and to the relevant Joint Patent (provided that EverInsight shall retain a non-exclusive, fully paid, royalty free, sublicenseable (through multiple tiers), perpetual and irrevocable license and right under the Joint Patent assigned to VistaGen).

(b)

In the event that VistaGen desires to abandon or cease prosecution or maintenance of any Licensed Patent in the Territory (or any jurisdiction therein) or any Joint Patent anywhere in the world, VistaGen shall provide reasonable prior written notice to EverInsight of such intention to abandon (which notice shall, to the extent possible, be given no later than thirty (30) days prior to the next deadline for any action that must be taken with respect to any such Patent in the relevant patent office). In such case, upon EverInsight’s written election provided no later than twenty (20) days after such notice from VistaGen, EverInsight shall have the right to assume prosecution and maintenance of such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent at EverInsight’s sole cost and expense. If EverInsight does not provide such election within twenty (20) days after such notice from VistaGen, VistaGen may, in its sole discretion, abandon or cease prosecution and maintenance of such Patent in the Territory (or the relevant jurisdiction).

(c)

EverInsight shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to control the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of all EverInsight Patents throughout the world, at EverInsight’s own cost and expense.

9.3

Cooperation of the Parties. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully in the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Patents under Section 9.2 (Patent Prosecution and Maintenance), at its own cost. Such cooperation includes: (a) executing all papers and instruments, or requiring its employees or contractors, to execute such papers and instruments, so as enable the applicable Party to apply for and to prosecute patent applications in any country as permitted by Section 9.2 (Patent Prosecution and Maintenance); and (b) promptly informing the other Party of any matters coming to such Party’s attention that may affect the preparation, filing, prosecution or maintenance of any such patent applications.

9.4

Infringement by Third Parties.

(a)

Notice. In the event that either VistaGen or EverInsight becomes aware of any infringement or threatened infringement by a Third Party of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in and/or outside the Territory, which infringing activity involves the using, making, importing, offering for sale and/or selling of a Licensed Product or any product that falls within the scope of the Licensed Patents (regardless of whether or not EverInsight and/or VistaGen is currently Developing using, making, importing, offering for sale, selling, and/or otherwise Commercializing the same Licensed Product), or the submission to a Party or a Regulatory Authority in and/or outside the Territory of an application for a product referencing a Licensed Product, or any declaratory judgment or equivalent action challenging any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent in and/or inside the Territory in connection with any such infringement (each, a “Product Infringement”), it will promptly notify the other Party in writing to that effect. Any such notice shall include evidence to support an allegation of infringement or threatened infringement, or declaratory judgment or equivalent action, by such Third Party.

(b)

Enforcement of Licensed Patents and Joint Patents. To the extent permitted by the Pherin License, EverInsight shall have the first right, as between VistaGen and EverInsight, but not the obligation, to bring an appropriate suit or take other action against any Person or entity engaged in, or to defend against, such Product Infringement in the Territory of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent, at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice. VistaGen shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action in the Territory by counsel of its own choice, and EverInsight and its counsel will reasonably cooperate with VistaGen and its counsel in strategizing, preparing and prosecuting any such action or proceeding. If EverInsight fails to bring an action or proceeding in the Territory with respect to such Product Infringement of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent within (A) ninety (90) days following the notice of alleged infringement or declaratory judgment or (B) sixty (60) days before the time limit, if any, set forth in the Applicable Laws for the filing of such actions, whichever comes first, VistaGen shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring and control any such action in the Territory at its own expense and by counsel of its own choice, and EverInsight shall have the right, at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by counsel of its own choice. Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties as part of a cost-sharing arrangement, any recovery or damages realized as a result of such action or proceeding with respect to Product Infringement of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent, or settlement of the same, shall be used (A) first, to reimburse the Parties’ documented out-of-pocket legal expenses relating to the action or proceeding; and (B) any remainder after such reimbursement is made shall be retained by the enforcing Party, provided, that if EverInsight is the enforcing Party, then to the extent that any award or settlement (whether by judgment or otherwise) with respect to any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent is attributable to loss of sales or profits with respect to a Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory, such amounts (except punitive damages) that may be recovered or realized by EverInsight after reimbursement of enforcement cost shall be considered Net Sales and subject to the royalty obligations under Section 8.4 (Royalty Payments) and the commercial Milestone Payment obligations under Section 8.3 (Commercial Milestones)

-44-

(provided that such amount shall be evenly spread (on Calendar Quarterly basis) over the time period during which the lost sales or profits occurred for the purpose of determine aggregate annual Net Sales, royalty tiers and achievement of commercial milestones). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 9, in the event that patent enforcement or patent defense litigation regarding the Licensed Patents occurs in multiple countries, within or outside the Territory, then VistaGen shall have the first right but not the obligation to bring an appropriate suit or take other appropriate action.

(c)

Cooperation. In the event a Party brings an action in accordance with this Section 9.4 (Infringement by Third Parties), the other Party shall cooperate fully at its own expense, including, if required to bring such action, and providing access to relevant documents and other evidence including, without limitation, making its employees available at reasonable business hours to the Party’s counsel for all pre-trial and trial proceedings, as well as the furnishing of a power of attorney or being named as a party to such action as may reasonably be necessary.

(d)

Other Infringement. VistaGen shall have the sole right, but not the obligation, to bring and control, at its own cost and expense, any legal action in connection with any Product Infringement of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent outside the Territory and any legal action in connection with any infringement of any Licensed Patent that is not a Product Infringement; provided, however, that such legal action is not combined with a legal action involving a Product Infringement. The Parties shall jointly control any legal action in connection with any infringement of any Joint Patent anywhere in the world that is not a Product Infringement and is not combined with a Product Infringement legal action. Any recovery or damages realized as a result of such action or proceeding with respect to Product Infringement of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent shall be used (A) first, but only if a Joint Patent was the subject of such legal action, to reimburse the Parties’ documented out-of-pocket legal expenses relating to such action or proceeding; and (B) any remainder after such reimbursement, if applicable, shall be retained by the Party initiating such action or proceeding (or, in the case of Joint Patent, shared by the Parties equally).

(e)

Effect of Pherin License. The Parties acknowledge that provisions of the Pherin License may affect the standing and ability of a Party to bring and control infringement litigation, notwithstanding the contemplated allocation of litigation-related enforcement rights as between the Parties in this Agreement.

9.5

Infringement Claims by Third Parties. If the Exploitation of a Licensed Product in the Licensed Field 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 against EverInsight or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees alleging infringement by EverInsight or any of its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees, distributors or customers (a “Third Party Infringement Claim”), including any defense or counterclaim in connection with a Product Infringement action initiated pursuant to Section 9.4(b) (Enforcement of Licensed Patents and Joint Patents), the Party first becoming aware of such alleged infringement shall promptly notify the other Party thereof in writing. As between the Parties, subject to ARTICLE 13 (Indemnification; Liability): (a) VistaGen shall be

-45-

responsible for defending any such claim, suit or proceeding at its sole cost and expense, using counsel of VistaGen’s choice; (b) EverInsight may participate in any such claim, suit or proceeding with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense; provided that VistaGen shall retain the right to control such claim, suit or proceeding; (c)EverInsight shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, assist and co-operate with VistaGen, as VistaGen may reasonably request from time to time, in connection with its activities set forth in this Section 9.5 (Infringement Claims by Third Parties), 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 access to relevant documents and other evidence and making its employees available at reasonable business hours; provided that VistaGen shall reimburse EverInsight for its reasonable and verifiable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith; (d) VistaGen shall keep EverInsight reasonably informed of all material developments in connection with any such claim, suit or proceeding; (e) VistaGen agrees to provide EverInsight with copies of all material pleadings filed in such action and to allow EverInsight reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of the Claims; and (f) any damages, or awards, including royalties, incurred or awarded in connection with any Third Party Infringement Claim defended under this Section 9.5 (Infringement Claims by Third Parties) shall be borne by VistaGen, and VistaGen shall indemnify and hold EverInsight Indemnitee harmless from such Third Party Infringement Claim pursuant Section 13.1(d).

9.6

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, Joint Patents or EverInsight Patents worldwide, by a Third Party and of which such Party becomes aware. As between the Parties: (a) VistaGen and EverInsight shall coordinate with each other to defend and control the defense of the validity and enforceability of any Joint Patents in the Territory and share the cost and expense thereof; (b) VistaGen shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend and control the defense of the validity and enforceability of any Licensed Patents, at its sole cost and expense, using counsel of VistaGen’s choice; (c) EverInsight shall have the first right, but not the obligation, to defend and control the defense of the validity and enforceability of any EverInsight Patents, at its sole cost and expense, using counsel of EverInsight’s choice; provided however that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 9.4 shall control with respect to any such claim that is a Product Infringement or is a counter claim in an enforcement action against a Project Infringement. For purposes of this Section 9.6 (Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions), the Party defending and controlling the defense of the validity and enforceability pursuant to the foregoing sentence with respect to a Patent shall be the “Controlling Party”. With respect to any such claim, suit or proceeding in the Territory under this Section 9.6 (Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions), the non-Controlling Party may participate in such claim, suit or proceeding with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense; provided that the Controlling Party shall retain control of the defense in such claim, suit or proceeding. If the Controlling Party elects not to defend the applicable Patents in a suit, then the Controlling Party shall notify the non-Controlling Party of such election at least sixty (60) days before the time limit, if any, set forth in Applicable Laws for defending such actions, with the proviso that if the Controlling Party is VistaGen, then, to the extent permitted under the Pherin License, EverInsight shall have the right, but not the obligation, for any such Invalidity or Unenforceability Defenses or Actions, to assume control of the defense of any such claim, suit or proceeding at its sole cost and expense.

9.8

Common Ownership under Joint Research Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE 9, no Party shall have the right to make an election under 35 U.S.C. 102(c) when exercising its rights under this ARTICLE 9 without the prior written consent of the other Party.

9.10

Trademarks. VistaGen and EverInsight shall provide to the other Party prompt written notice of any actual or threatened infringement of the Product Trademarks or Licensed Trademarks in the Territory and of any actual or threatened Claim that the use of the Product Trademarks or Licensed Trademarks in the Territory violates the rights of any Third Party, in each case, of which such Party becomes aware. EverInsight shall have the right to select and register, and shall own and be responsible for, at its expense, all Product Trademarks, trade names, branding or logos related to the Compound or Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory. EverInsight shall have the sole right to take such action as EverInsight deems

-47-

necessary against a Third Party based on any alleged, threatened or actual infringement, dilution, misappropriation or other violation of or unfair trade practices or any other like offense relating to, the Product Trademarks by a Third Party in the Territory at its sole cost and expense and using counsel of its own choice and EverInsight shall retain any damages or other amounts collected in connection therewith.

9.11

Licensed Trademarks. If EverInsight is lawfully required by any Regulatory Authority or otherwise desires to use any of the Licensed Trademarks or any other Trademark used by VistaGen (either in connection with or in lieu of Product Trademarks selected by EverInsight) to market, promote, distribute and/or sell any Licensed Product in the Licensed Field outside the Territory for the purpose of Commercialization of the relevant Licensed Product in a jurisdiction in the Territory, EverInsight shall promptly notify VistaGen, and VistaGen shall immediately grant EverInsight an exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free and sublicensable license to use such Licensed Trademark or such other Trademark solely in connection with the Commercialization of the relevant Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in such jurisdiction in the Territory; provided that any such license shall automatically terminate upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement with respect to such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction.

10.3

Authorized Disclosures. Notwithstanding the obligations set forth in Section 10.1 (Duty of Confidence), the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party and the terms of this Agreement to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary for such Disclosing Party to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement, in the following instances:

(g)

such disclosure is required by court order, judicial or administrative process or Applicable Laws; provided that in such event the Receiving Party shall promptly inform the Disclosing Party of such required disclosure and provide the Disclosing Party an opportunity to challenge or limit the disclosure obligations.

The other Party may reasonably request a reasonable delay in publication or presentation in order to protect patentable information. If the other Party reasonably requests a delay, then the publishing or presenting Party shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliate(s) or the Sublicensee(s) shall, delay submission or presentation for a period of sixty (60) calendar days (or such shorter period as may be mutually agreed by the Parties) to enable the other Party to file patent applications protecting the other Party’s rights in such information.

10.5

Publicity/Use of Names.

Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(a)

A Party may disclose this Agreement and its terms, and material developments or material information generated under this Agreement, in news releases and securities filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (or equivalent foreign agency) to the extent required by Applicable Laws after complying with the procedure set forth in this Section 10.5 (Publicity/Use of Names). In such event, the Party seeking to make such disclosure will prepare a draft of such disclosure together with, if applicable, a confidential treatment request to request confidential treatment for this Agreement and proposed redacted version of this Agreement, and the other Party agrees to promptly (and in any event, no less than three (3) Business Days after receipt of such request for disclosure required for 8-K and no less than five (5) Business Days for other disclosure, including, if applicable, proposed redactions) give its input in a reasonable manner in order to allow the Party seeking disclosure to file its request within the time lines prescribed by applicable SEC regulations. The Party seeking such disclosure shall exercise Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain confidential treatment of this Agreement from the SEC as represented by the redacted version reviewed and agreed upon in good faith by the other Party.

(b)

Further, each Party acknowledges that the other Party may be legally required, or may be required by the listing rules of any exchange on which the other Party’s or its Affiliate’s securities are traded or advised by its counsel, to make public disclosures (including in filings with the SEC or other agency) of certain material developments or material information generated under this Agreement and agrees that each Party may make such disclosures as required by law, listing rules or advice; provided that the Party seeking such disclosure shall provide the other Party with a copy of the proposed text of such disclosure sufficiently in advance of the scheduled release to afford such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon.

(d)

The Parties agree that after a public disclosure has been made or a press release or other public announcement has been issued in compliance with subsection (a), (b) or (c) hereof, each Party may make subsequent public disclosures or issue press releases or

-51-

other public announcements disclosing the same content without having to obtain the other Party’s prior consent and approval.

10.6

Reporting of Financial Information. From and after the Effective Date, to the extent required by the SEC (or equivalent foreign agency) in connection with EverInsight or an Affiliate of EverInsight registering securities in a public offering, VistaGen shall (a) cooperate with EverInsight or its Affiliates and their respective accountants and auditors by providing copies of books, and records related to the Licensed Product as EverInsight may reasonably request in connection with the preparation by EverInsight or its Affiliates of historical and pro forma financial statements related to the Licensed Product as may be required to be included in any filing made by EverInsight or any of its Affiliates under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation S-X (or equivalent foreign laws and regulations) and (b) without limiting the foregoing, shall provide EverInsight with such information as is required for EverInsight or its Affiliates to prepare audited “carve out” financial statements related to the Licensed Product, for the three (3) Calendar Years prior to the Effective Date (or such shorter period as agreed to by EverInsight) and information requested by EverInsight and reasonably necessary to prepare any applicable pro forma financial information required to be filed by EverInsight with the SEC (or equivalent foreign agency). EverInsight may also derive such “carve out” financial statements from VistaGen’s historical financial statements and accurately present in all material respects the financial position of the Licensed Product in the Licensed Field in the Territory as of the dates thereof. EverInsight shall (i) submit to VistaGen any proposed filing containing or incorporating by reference any financial statements provided to EverInsight under this Section 10.6 (Reporting of Financial Information) as far in advance as reasonably practicable (and in no event, unless inconsistent with Applicable Laws, less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated date of filing) so as to provide VistaGen a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon and (ii) in good faith consider incorporating such comments. All information of VistaGen obtained by or on behalf of EverInsight under this Section 10.6 (Reporting of Financial Information) shall be deemed Confidential Information of VistaGen.

10.7

Privileged Communications. In furtherance of this Agreement, it is expected that the Parties may, from time to time, disclose to one another privileged communications with counsel, including opinions, memoranda, letters and other written, electronic and verbal communications. Such disclosures are made with the understanding that they shall remain confidential in accordance with this ARTICLE 10 (Confidentiality; Publication), that they will not be deemed to waive any applicable attorney-client or attorney work product or other privilege and that they are made in connection with the shared community of legal interests existing between VistaGen and EverInsight, including the community of legal interests in avoiding infringement of any valid, enforceable patents of Third Parties and maintaining the validity of the Licensed Patents, EverInsight Patents and Joint Patents. In the event of any litigation (or potential litigation) with a Third Party related to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, the Parties shall, upon either Party’s request, enter into a reasonable and customary joint defense or common interest agreement. In any event, each Party shall consult in a timely manner with the other Party before engaging in any conduct (e.g., producing Information or documents) in connection with litigation or other proceedings that could conceivably implicate privileges maintained by the other Party. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 10.7 (Privileged Communications), nothing

-52-

in this Agreement shall prejudice a Party’s ability to take discovery of the other Party in disputes between them relating to the Agreement and no information otherwise admissible or discoverable by a Party shall become inadmissible or immune from discovery solely by this Section 10.7 (Privileged Communications).

ARTICLE 11 TERM AND TERMINATION

11.1

Term. Unless earlier terminated as permitted by this Agreement, the term of this Agreement will commence upon the Effective Date and continue in full force and effect, on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction and Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product basis, until expiration of the Royalty Term for such Licensed Product in such jurisdiction the Territory (the “Term”). Following the expiration (but not the earlier termination) of the Royalty Term for a Licensed Product in a jurisdiction in the Territory, the grants in Section 2.1 (Licenses to EverInsight) shall continue and become exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, and irrevocable for such Licensed Product (existing at the time of such expiration) in such jurisdiction. For clarity, (a) upon the expiration (but not the earlier termination) of the Term, the grants in Section 2.1 (Licenses to EverInsight) shall become exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, and irrevocable in their entirety solely as to the Licensed Product in the Territory at the time of such expiration and (b) upon the expiration (but not the earlier termination) of the Term, the grant in Section 2.2 (License to VistaGen) shall become an exclusive, perpetual, fully- paid, royalty-free and irrevocable license under the EverInsight Technology to Exploit the Licensed Product (existing at the time of such expiration) in the Licensed Field outside the Territory, in each case with the right to grant sublicenses.

11.2

Termination.

(a)

Automatic Termination for Nonpayment of Upfront Payment. If EverInsight fails to pay VistaGen the upfront payment set forth in Section 8.1 (Upfront Payment) within thirty (30) Business Days after the Effective Date; then, in any such case, this Agreement will automatically and immediately terminate.

(b)

Termination by EverInsight for Convenience. At any time, EverInsight may terminate this Agreement (either in its entirety or on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis), at its sole discretion and for any reason or no reason, by providing written notice of termination to VistaGen, which notice includes an effective date of termination at least [*****] after the date of the notice.

(c)

Termination for Cause. If either VistaGen or EverInsight believes that the other Party is in material breach of its obligations hereunder, then the non-breaching Party may deliver notice of such breach to the other Party. The allegedly breaching Party shall have (i) [*****] Business Days in the case of a payment breach and or (ii) [*****] Business Days in the case of a non-payment breach, to cure such breach from the receipt of the notice. If the allegedly breaching Party fails to cure that breach within the applicable period set forth above, or has not undertaken reasonable steps to cure the breach if a complete cure is not reasonably to be expected within such period, then the

-53-

Party originally delivering the notice of breach may terminate this Agreement on written notice of termination. Any right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.2(c) (Termination for Cause) shall be stayed and the applicable cure period tolled in the event that, during such cure period, the Party alleged to have been in material breach shall have initiated dispute resolution in accordance with Section 14.10 (Dispute Resolution) with respect to the alleged breach, which stay and tolling shall continue until such dispute has been resolved in accordance with Section 14.10 (Dispute Resolution). If a Party is determined to be in material breach of this Agreement, the other Party may terminate this Agreement if the breaching Party fails to cure the breach within thirty (30) Business Days after the conclusion of the dispute resolution procedure (and such termination shall then be effective upon written notification from the notifying Party to the breaching Party).

(d)

Termination for Patent Challenge. VistaGen may terminate this Agreement immediately upon prior written notice to EverInsight if EverInsight or its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees, individually or in association with any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, commences or participates in a Challenge to the validity or enforceability of any Licensed Patents, unless EverInsight, such Affiliate or Sublicensee dismisses or withdraws such Challenge within [*****] days, or in the case of a Challenge by a Sublicensee, EverInsight terminates the sublicense agreement with such Sublicensee within [*****] days. EverInsight may terminate the license granted by EverInsight to VistaGen this Agreement (but retain the license granted by VistaGen to EverInsight hereunder) immediately upon prior written notice to VistaGen if VistaGen or its Affiliates or its or their Sublicensees, individually or in association with any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, commences or participates in a Challenge to the validity or enforceability of any EverInsight Patents, unless VistaGen, such Affiliate or Sublicensee dismisses or withdraws such Challenge within [*****] days, or in the case of a Challenge by a Sublicensee, VistaGen terminates the sublicense agreement with such Sublicensee within [*****] days.

(e)

Termination for Bankruptcy. This Agreement may be terminated at any time during the Term by either Party upon the other Party’s filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of the assets for the benefit of creditors by the other Party; provided that in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy proceeding such right to terminate shall only become effective if the Party consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such proceeding is not dismissed within [*****] days after the filing thereof.

11.3

Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by either Party, the following consequences shall apply and shall be effective as of the effective date of such termination (if this Agreement is terminated on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, then this Section 11.3 shall only apply to the terminated Licensed Product in the terminated jurisdiction):

(a)

EverInsight’s license under Section 2.1 (License to EverInsight) shall terminate and all milestone and any other payments accruing prior to the effective date of termination will be paid by EverInsight on or before the termination date and all reports

and accountings that are due prior to the effective date of termination shall be submitted by EverInsight on or before the termination date.

(b)

If this Agreement is terminated in its entirety by VistaGen pursuant to Section 11.2(c) (Termination for Cause), 11.2(d) (Termination for Patent Challenge), or 11.2(e) (Termination for Bankruptcy), or if this Agreement is terminated by EverInsight in its entirety pursuant to Section 11.2(b) (Termination by EverInsight for Convenience), then EverInsight hereby grants to VistaGen, effective only upon such termination, an exclusive (even as to EverInsight), royalty-free, fully-paid, perpetual and irrevocable license, with the right to grant sublicenses through multiple tiers, under the EverInsight Technology, EverInsight Development Data and EverInsight Regulatory Documentation, to Develop, make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell and otherwise Commercialize or Exploit the Compound and any product containing the Compound anywhere in the world in all fields of use. During a reasonable period of time (but no more than six (6) months) after termination, EverInsight shall reasonably cooperate with VistaGen to facility the transfer of the Development and regulatory activities for the Compound and Licensed Product to VistaGen.

(c)

If this Agreement is terminated by EverInsight pursuant to Section 11.2(c) (Termination for Cause), or 11.2(e) (Termination for Bankruptcy), then VistaGen may request, within [*****] days of such termination, that EverInsight enter into good faith negotiations for no more than [*****] days concerning the terms of an agreement with EverInsight granting to VistaGen an exclusive (even as to EverInsight) license under the EverInsight Technology, EverInsight Development Data and EverInsight Regulatory Documentation. If no agreement is reached, then the license to VistaGen under Section 2.2 (License to VistaGen) shall terminate.

(d)

If this Agreement is terminated in its entirety, VistaGen shall be solely responsible for all future worldwide Development, Manufacture and Commercialization of the Compound and Licensed Product in the Licensed Field, at its sole cost and expense.

(e)

If this Agreement is terminated in its entirety, each Party shall return to the other Party or destroy, at the other Party’s election, all Confidential Information of the other Party, including all copies thereof and all materials, substances and compositions delivered or provided by or on behalf of the other Party; except that (i) each Party may retain one copy of the other Party’s Confidential Information for legal archival purpose, and neither Party shall be required to delete or destroy any electronic back-up tapes or other electronic back-up files that have been created solely by automatic or routine archiving and back-up procedures; and (ii) if the Parties reach agreement with respect to a license grant by EverInsight to VistaGen under clause (c) or VistaGen has license rights under clause (b), then VistaGen shall not be required to return or destroy EverInsight’s Confidential Information to the extent VistaGen has the right to use such Confidential Information solely as necessary to practice such license.

-55-

(f)

If VistaGen automatically has license rights under clause 11.3(b) or the Parties reach agreement with respect to a license grant by EverInsight to VistaGen under clause 11.3(c) then:

(i)

EverInsight shall deliver to VistaGen all Regulatory Filings and Regulatory Approvals for the Compound and any Licensed Product, all EverInsight Development Data and all EverInsight Know-How.

(ii)

EverInsight shall (1) disclose to VistaGen all EverInsight Know-How, EverInsight Development Data and all Joint Inventions to the extent not already known to VistaGen, which may be necessary or reasonably useful for VistaGen to continue to Develop, Manufacture and Commercialize the Compound and Licensed Product in the Licensed Field; and (2), at VistaGen’s request, provide reasonable technical assistance and transfer all EverInsight Know-How, EverInsight Development Data and Joint Inventions necessary to Manufacture the Compound or Licensed Product to VistaGen or its designee; provided that VistaGen shall reimburse EverInsight for the reasonable cost and expense of such technical assistance.

(iii)

EverInsight shall, at VistaGen’s request and election, introduce VistaGen to EverInsight’s Third Party providers of clinical research, manufacturing and/or distribution services and assign any contracts with such entities to VistaGen to the extent such contracts (or portions thereof, such as a work order under a master services agreement) relate solely to the Licensed Product and are assignable to VistaGen.

EverInsight shall, and hereby does, effective on such termination, assign to VistaGen all of EverInsight’s and its Affiliates’ right, title and interest in and to any and all Product Trademarks and other trademarks used by EverInsight and its Affiliates in the Territory in connection with its Development, Manufacture or Commercialization of Licensed Product (excluding any such trademarks that include, in whole or part, any corporate name or logo of EverInsight or its Affiliates), including all goodwill therein, and EverInsight shall promptly take such actions and execute such instruments, assignments and documents as may be necessary to effect, evidence, register and record such assignment.

11.4

Survival. Expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party of any obligation accruing prior to such expiration or termination, nor shall expiration or any termination of this Agreement preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, with respect to breach of this Agreement. In addition, the provisions of ARTICLE 1 (Definitions), subclauses (b) through (d) of Section 5.4 (Rights of Reference), Section 8.8 (Taxes), Section 8.9 (Financial Records and Audit), Section

In addition, in the event that the this Agreement is terminated by EverInsight pursuant to Section 11.2(c) (Termination for Cause) and, pursuant to Section 11.3 (Effect of Termination), either VistaGen does not timely request that EverInsight enter into good faith negotiations concerning the terms of an agreement with VistaGen granting VistaGen a license under the EverInsight Technology and EverInsight Development Data, or if no agreement is timely reached, then the provisions of Sections 9.2 through 9.9 of ARTICLE 9 (Intellectual Property), solely with respect to Joint Inventions, shall also survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

11.6

Alternative Remedy for VistaGen’s Breach. In the event EverInsight would be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant Section 11.2(c) for VistaGen’s uncured material breach, but if EverInsight does not desire to exercise such termination right, then, EverInsight may, in its sole discretion and without waiving or releasing any right, claim or remedy for such breach, elect to maintain this Agreement in full force and effect and reduce all future payments due to VistaGen hereunder by [*****].

-63-

13.3

Indemnification Procedure.

(a)

Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims in respect of a Party, its Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party shall give the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) a prompt written notice (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Claims or discovery of fact upon which such Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under this ARTICLE 13 (Indemnification; Liability) within [*****] days from written receipt of such Claim or discovery of facts that that might give rise to such Claim. Each Indemnification Claim Notice must contain a description of the Claim and the nature and amount of such Claim (to the extent that the nature and amount of such Claim is known at such time).

(b)

Control of Defense. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [*****] days after the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a 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 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 Claim, the Indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the 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). In the event the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Claim, upon the Indemnifying Party’s relevant notice the Indemnified Party shall immediately deliver to the Indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Claim. Should the Indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Claim, except as provided in Section 13.3(c) (Right to Participate in Defense), the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Claim unless specifically requested and approved in writing by the Indemnifying Party. In the event that it is ultimately determined that the Indemnifying Party is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against the Claim, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any and all reasonable and verifiable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) incurred by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this ARTICLE 13 (Indemnification; Liability) in its defense of the Claim.

(c)

Right to Participate in Defense. Any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however, that such employment shall be at the Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized in writing in advance by the Indemnifying Party (in which case, the defense shall be controlled as provided in Section 13.3(b) (Control of Defense), with such provisions applying mutatis mutandis; (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense

-64-

and employ counsel in accordance with Section 13.3(b) (Control of Defense) (in which case the Indemnified Party shall control the defense, with the reasonable out-of-pocket expense with respect thereto borne by the Indemnifying Party); or (iii) the interests of the indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Claim are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under Applicable Laws, ethical rules or equitable principles (in which case, the Indemnified Party shall control its defense, with the reasonable out-of-pocket expense with respect thereto borne by the indemnifying Party).

(d)

Settlement. With respect to any Claims relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Claim that shall not result in the applicable indemnitee(s) becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affect the business or interests of the Indemnified Party in any manner and as to which the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the applicable indemnitee hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Claim, on such terms as the Indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other Claims in connection with Claims, where the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Claim in accordance with Section 13.3(b) (Control of Defense), the Indemnifying Party shall have authority to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Claim; 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 Claim as provided above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Claim; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e)

Cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Claim, the Indemnified Party shall and shall cause each indemnitee to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the indemnifying Party in connection therewith. 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 Claim and making the Indemnified Party, the indemnitees 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 of its, its Affiliates’ and its and their sublicensees’ or their respective directors’, officers’, employees’ and agents’, as applicable, reasonable and verifiable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.

(f)

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 sublicensees and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, as

-65-

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.

13.4

Mitigation of Loss. Each Indemnified Party will take and will procure that its Affiliates take all such reasonable steps and actions as are reasonably necessary or as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require in order to mitigate any Claims (or potential losses or damages) under this ARTICLE 13 (Indemnification; Liability). Nothing in this Agreement shall or shall be deemed to relieve any Party of any common law or other duty to mitigate any losses incurred by it.

13.5

Special, Indirect and Other Losses. EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF A BREACH OF SECTION 2.7 (NON-DIVERSION), SECTION 2.8 (NON-COMPETE) OR ARTICLE 10 (CONFIDENTIALITY; PUBLICATION), NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM THE OTHER PARTY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LICENSE GRANTED HEREUNDER; provided, however, that this Section 13.5 shall not be construed to limit either Party’s indemnification obligations under Section 13.1 (Indemnification by VistaGen) or Section 13.2 (Indemnification by EverInsight), as applicable.

13.6

Insurance. Each Party, at its own expense, shall maintain product liability and other appropriate insurance in an amount consistent with sound business practice and reasonable in light of its obligations under this Agreement during the Term. Each Party shall provide a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage to the other Party upon request.

ARTICLE 14 GENERAL PROVISIONS

14.2

Except as expressly provided hereunder, neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that either Party may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder without the other Party’s consent: (a) in connection with the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of such Party to which this Agreement relates to a Third Party, whether by merger, consolidation, divesture, restructure, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise; provided that in the event of any such transaction (whether this Agreement is actually assigned or is assumed by the acquiring party by operation of law (e.g., in the context of a reverse triangular merger)),

-66-

intellectual property rights of the acquiring party to such transaction (if other than one of the Parties to this Agreement) and its Affiliates existing prior to the transaction shall not be included in the technology licensed hereunder; or (b) to an Affiliate, provided that the assigning Party shall remain liable and responsible to the non-assigning Party hereto for the performance and observance of all such duties and obligations by such Affiliate; and provided, further, that in any such case the assigning Party shall provide written notice to the other Party within five (5) calendar days after such assignment or transfer. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties, and the name of a Party appearing herein will be deemed to include the name of such Party’s successors and permitted assigns to the extent necessary to carry out the intent of this section. Any assignment not in accordance with this Section 14.2 (Assignment) shall be null and void.

14.5

Non-Waiver.

Dispute Resolution.

(a)

Except as provided in Section 3.3(b)(i), (b)(ii), (c) or Excluded Claims as set forth in subsection 14.10(g) below, if a dispute arises within the JSC with respect to any decision under the jurisdiction of the JSC that remains unresolved pursuant to Section 3.3 (JSC Decision-Making) or otherwise between the Parties in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith (collectively, a “Dispute”), then either Party shall have the right to refer such Dispute to the Executive Officers for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations during a period of forty-five (45) days. Any final decision mutually agreed to in writing by the Executive Officers shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(b)

The Executive Officers shall negotiate in good faith and use reasonable efforts to settle any Dispute arising from or related to this Agreement or the breach thereof within such forty-five (45) day period. Subject to Section 14.10(h) (Dispute Resolution - subsection (h)), in the event the Executive Officers cannot fully resolve or settle such Dispute within such period, and a Party wishes to pursue the matter further, each such Dispute that is not an Excluded Claim (defined in Section 14.10(g) (Dispute Resolution - subsection (g)) below) shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) in accordance with its arbitration rules then in effect.

(c)

The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) neutral arbitrators experienced in the pharmaceutical business, none of whom shall be a current or former employee or director, or a current stockholder, of either Party or any of their respective Affiliates or any Sublicensee. Within thirty (30) days after initiation of arbitration, each Party shall select one (1) person to act as arbitrator and the two (2) Party-selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days of their appointment. If the arbitrators selected by the Parties are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the HKIAC (or its successor entity) in accordance with the then-current HKIAC arbitration rules, except as modified in this Agreement. The place of arbitration shall be in Hong Kong, and all proceedings and communications shall be in English. The procedures for the taking of evidence shall be governed by the HKIAC. The decision or award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final, binding, conclusive and non-appealable, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with Applicable Laws in the Hong Kong or any other court of competent jurisdiction.

(d)

Either Party may apply to the arbitrators for interim injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. The arbitrators’

-70-

authority to award punitive or any other type of damages not measured by a Party’s compensatory damages shall be subject to the limitation set forth in Section 13.5 (Special, Indirect and Other Losses). Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees and an equal share of the arbitrators’ fees and any administrative fees of arbitration.

(e)

Except to the extent necessary to confirm or enforce an award or as may be required by law, neither Party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of the other Party. In no event shall an arbitration be initiated after the date when commencement of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the dispute, controversy or claim would be barred by the applicable Hong Kong statute of limitations.

(f)

The Parties agree that, in the event of a dispute over the nature or quality of performance under this Agreement, neither Party may terminate this Agreement until final resolution of the dispute through arbitration or other judicial determination. The Parties further agree that any payments made pursuant to this Agreement pending resolution of the dispute shall be refunded if an arbitrator or court determines that such payments are not due.

(g)

As used in this Section, the term “Excluded Claim” means a dispute, controversy or claim that concerns the construction, scope, validity, enforceability, inventorship or infringement of a patent, patent application, trademark or copyright.

(h)

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall deny either Party the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in the context of a bona fide emergency or prospective irreparable harm, and such an action may be filed and maintained notwithstanding any ongoing discussions between the Parties or any ongoing arbitration proceeding. In addition, either Party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to resolve disputes pertaining to the construction, scope, validity, enforceability, inventorship or infringement of a patent, patent application, trademark or copyright, and no such claim shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 14.10 (Dispute Resolution). Both Parties agree to waive any requirement that the other (i) post a bond or other security as a condition for obtaining any such relief; or (ii) show irreparable harm, balancing of xxxxx, consideration of the public interest or inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy.

14.11

Performance by Affiliates. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any rights hereunder through any of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first proceed against such Party’s Affiliate.
