Notwithstanding Section 12(a), if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Lucid Shareholder Approval, Lucid receives a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, Lucid may engage in or participate in discussions or negotiations with such Person regarding such Acquisition Proposal and provide copies of, access to or disclosure of confidential information, properties, facilities, books or records of Lucid or its Subsidiaries, if and only if:

the Lucid Board first determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and its outside legal counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to a Superior Proposal;

(B)
such Person was not restricted from making such Acquisition Proposal pursuant to an existing standstill or similar restriction;

(C)
prior to providing any such copies, access, or disclosure, Lucid enters into a confidentiality and standstill agreement with such Person having terms that are not less onerous than those set out in the Confidentiality Agreement and any such copies, access or disclosure provided to such Person shall have already been or are concurrently provided to FSD; and

(D)
prior to providing any such copies, access or disclosure, Lucid provides FSD with a true, complete and final executed copy of the confidentiality agreement referred to in Subsection 12(c)(i)(C).


19


(ii)
Nothing contained in this Section 12 shall prohibit the Lucid Board from making disclosure to Lucid Shareholders as required by Applicable Law relating to the provision of a directors' circular in respect of an Acquisition Proposal.

(d)
Right to Match

(i)
If Lucid receives an Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal prior to the approval of the Amalgamation Resolution by the Lucid Shareholders, the Lucid Board may authorize Lucid to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, if and only if:

(A)
the Person making the Superior Proposal was not restricted from making such Superior Proposal pursuant to an existing confidentiality, standstill, non-disclosure, use, business purpose or similar restriction;

(B)
Company has been, and continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under this Section 12;

(C)
the Company has delivered to FSD a written notice of the determination of the Lucid Board that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and of the intention of the Lucid Board to enter into such definitive agreement, together with a copy of the definitive agreement for such Superior Proposal and written notice from the Lucid Board regarding the value and financial terms that the Lucid Board has, in consultation with its financial advisors, determined should be ascribed to any non-cash consideration offered under such Superior Proposal (collectively, the “Superior Proposal Notice”);
(D)
at least five (5) Business Days (the “Matching Period”) have elapsed from the date on which FSD received the Superior Proposal Notice;

(E)
during any Matching Period, FSD has had the opportunity (but not the obligation), in accordance with Subsection 12(d)(ii), to offer to amend this Agreement and the Amalgamation in order for such Acquisition Proposal to cease to be a Superior Proposal;

(F)
if FSD has offered to amend this Agreement and the Amalgamation under Subsection 12(d)(ii), the Lucid Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with Lucid’s outside legal counsel and financial advisers, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal compared to the terms of the Amalgamation as proposed to be amended by FSD under Subsection 12(d)(ii);


20

(G)
the Lucid Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with Lucid’s outside legal counsel, that the failure of the Lucid Board to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties; and

(H)
prior to entering into such definitive agreement Lucid terminates this Agreement pursuant to Subsection 24(a)(iv) and pays the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 26.

(ii)
During the Matching Period, or such longer period as Lucid may approve in writing for such purpose: (a) the Lucid Board shall review any offer made by FSD under Subsection 12(d)(i)(E) to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Amalgamation in good faith in order to determine whether such proposal would, upon acceptance, result in the Acquisition Proposal previously constituting a Superior Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal; and (b) if it would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal, Lucid shall negotiate in good faith with FSD to make such amendments to the terms of this Agreement and the Amalgamation as would enable FSD to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such amended terms. If the Lucid Board determines that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal, Lucid shall promptly so advise FSD and Lucid and FSD shall amend this Agreement to reflect such offer made by FSD, and shall take and cause to be taken all such actions as are necessary to give effect to the foregoing.

(iii)
Each successive amendment to any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of this Section 12, and FSD shall be afforded a new five Business Day Matching Period from the date on which FSD received the Superior Proposal Notice for the new Superior Proposal from Lucid.

(iv)
The Lucid Board shall promptly reaffirm the recommendation of the Lucid Board by press release after any Acquisition Proposal which is not determined to be a Superior Proposal is publicly announced or the Lucid Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of this Agreement as contemplated under Subsection12(d) would result in an Acquisition Proposal no longer being a Superior Proposal. Lucid shall provide FSD and its legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review the form and content of any such press release and shall make all reasonable amendments to such press release as reasonably requested by FSD and its legal counsel.

(v)
If Lucid provides a Superior Proposal Notice to FSD after a date that is less than 10 days before the date of the Lucid Meeting, Lucid shall either proceed with or shall postpone the Lucid Meeting, as directed FSD, to a date that is not more than 10 days after the scheduled date of the Lucid Meeting (and in any event, prior to the Outside Date).

26.
Termination Fee

(a)
If a Termination Fee Event occurs, the Company shall pay the Termination Fee to FSD (or as FSD may direct by notice in writing) in accordance with Subsection 26(c).

(b)
For the purposes of this Agreement, “Termination Fee Event” means the termination of this Agreement:

(i)
by FSD pursuant to Subsection 24(a)(ii)(C) [Failure to Obtain Lucid Shareholder Approval];

(ii)
by FSD pursuant to Subsection 24(a)(iii)(A) [Change of Recommendation or Material Breach of Non-Solicit];

(iii)
by Lucid pursuant to Subsection 24(a)(iv)(A) [Superior Proposal]; or

(iv)
by FSD pursuant to Subsection 24(a)(iii)(B) [Breach of Representation, Warranty or Covenant by the Company] due to a wilful breach if prior to such termination, an Acquisition Proposal is proposed, offered, made or publicly announced or otherwise publicly disclosed or any Person publicly announces an intention to do so. For purposes of this Subsection 24(a)(iii), all references to “20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “50%”.

48

(c)
The Termination Fee shall be paid by Lucid to FSD as follows, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by FSD:

(i)
if a Termination Fee Event occurs due to a termination of this Agreement described in Subsection 24(b)(i), within two Business Days of the occurrence of such Termination Fee Event;

(ii)
if a Termination Fee Event occurs due to a termination of this Agreement described in Subsection 24(b)(ii), on or prior to the occurrence of such Termination Fee Event; and

(iii)
if a Termination Fee Event occurs due to a termination of this Agreement described in Subsection 24(b)(iii), on or prior to the consummation of the applicable Acquisition Proposal.

(d)
If Lucid fails to pay the Termination Fee when due pursuant to this Section 26 and, in order to obtain such payment, FSD commences a suit that results in a judgment against Lucid for the Termination Fee, Lucid shall also pay to FSD its costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the Termination Fee at the prime rate of The Bank of Canada  in effect on the date the Termination Fee was required to be made through the date of payment.

(e)
Each of the Parties acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 26 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that without those agreements the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that all of the payment amounts set out in this Section 26 are payments of liquidated damages which are a genuine pre-estimate of the damages which FSD will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such payment and the resultant termination of this Agreement and are not penalties. Lucid hereby irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defence that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive.

(f)
FSD agrees that the payment of the Termination Fee in the manner provided in this Section 26 is the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of FSD in respect of the event giving rise to such payment and the termination of this Agreement, and following receipt of the Termination Fee, as applicable, FSD shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against Lucid or any of its affiliates arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (or the termination thereof) or the transactions contemplated herein and neither Lucid nor any of its affiliates shall have any further liability with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to FSD or any of its affiliates; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply in the event of fraud or a wilful breach by Lucid of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement (which breach and any liability therefore shall not be affected by termination of this Agreement or any payment of the Termination Fee). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Lucid be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

49


(g)
Prior to the termination of this Agreement, the terms of this Section 26 will not preclude FSD from seeking injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach by Lucid of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or otherwise obtain specific performance of any of such acts, covenants or agreements in accordance with Section 28.

27.
Expenses and Expense Reimbursement

Except as otherwise provided herein, all out-of-pocket third-party transaction expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Amalgamation, including all costs, expenses and fees of Lucid or FSD incurred prior to or after the Effective Date in connection with, or incidental to, the Amalgamation, shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Amalgamation is consummated.

28.
Equitable Remedies.
 
Each party acknowledges and agrees that (a) a breach or threatened breach by such party of any of its obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy, and (b) if a breach or a threatened breach by such party of any such obligations occurs, the other parties hereto will, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to such parties at law, at equity, or otherwise in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction, without any requirement to (i) post a bond or other security, or (ii) prove actual damages or that monetary damages will not afford an adequate remedy. Each party agrees that such party shall not oppose or otherwise challenge the appropriateness of equitable relief or the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order granting equitable relief, in either case, consistent with the terms of this Section 28.
 
29.
Binding Effect.
 
This Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
 
30.

This Agreement, the Amalgamation Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Voting and Support Agreements and the Lock-Up Agreements and any ancillary documents delivered by the parties pursuant to this Agreement or the Amalgamation Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

No party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each of the other parties.

Public Announcements.
 
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no party to this Agreement shall make any public disclosure or press release in connection with the Amalgamation or other matters contemplated hereby without prior written consent of FSD and Lucid, provided however that this Section 33 shall not be interpreted so as to prohibit any party from complying with its timely disclosure and other obligations under Applicable Laws.

INDEMNIFICATION AND LOCK-UP AGREEMENT
 
August ___, 2021
 
FSD Pharma Inc. (“FSD”)
2861435 Ontario Inc (“Acquireco”)
Lucid Psycheceuticals Inc. (“Lucid”)
ILace Therapeutics International Inc. (“ILace”)
Kotra Trust (“Kotra Trust”)
Lakshmi Kotra (“Kotra”, and collectively with ILace and Kotra Trust, “Kotra Parties”)
Tiziana Romano (“Tiziana”)
Dia International Inc. (“Dia”)
Joseph Romano (“Romano”, and collectively with Tiziana and Dia, “Romano Parties”)

Re:            Acquisition Shares Indemnification and Lock-up Agreement
 
Each of the Kotra Parties and Romano Parties (each a “Securityholder” and together the “Securityholders”) understands that FSD and Acquireco (together, the “Purchasers”), among others, have entered into a master agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) in connection with the acquisition of Lucid by the Purchasers (the “Acquisition”) and that it is a condition to the completion of the Acquisition that the Securityholders enter into this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement.
 
All capitalized terms used in this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning given to them in the Definitive Agreement.
 
1.            In consideration of the benefit that the Acquisition will confer upon the Securityholders, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Securityholders hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers on the terms and conditions set forth in this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement.
 
2.            For the purposes of this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement, all provisions of the Definitive Agreement, shall not merge on Closing of the transactions contemplated in the Definitive Agreement but shall survive the execution and delivery of the Definitive Agreement and performance of the obligations provided for therein, the Closing and the execution and delivery of any other agreements, certificates and instruments delivered pursuant to the Definitive Agreement.
 
3.            Each of the Securityholders, severally and not jointly and severally, hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each of the Purchasers and their respective Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees and shareholders of each of them (the “Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties”), and will reimburse them for, any Damages arising from, in connection with or related in any manner whatsoever to:
B-2


(a)
any incorrectness in or breach of any representation or warranty of Lucid contained in the Definitive Agreement; and

(b)
any breach or any non-fulfilment of any covenant or agreement on the part of Lucid contained in the Definitive Agreement, which was not waived prior to Closing by the Purchasers.

For greater certainty and without limiting the generality of the provisions of Sections 3(a) and (b), the indemnity provided for in Section 3(b) shall extend to any Damages arising from any act, omission or state of facts that occurred or existed prior to the Closing Time, and whether or not disclosed in any Schedule to the Definitive Agreement.  The rights to indemnification of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties under Section 3 shall apply notwithstanding any inspection or inquiries made by or on behalf of any of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties, or any knowledge acquired or capable of being acquired by any of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties or facts actually known to any of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties (whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement and whether before or after Closing). The waiver of any condition based upon the accuracy of any representation and warranty or the performance of any covenant shall not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representation, warranty or covenant.
 
4.            Damages” means , whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, any loss, cost, liability, claim, interest, fine, penalty, assessment, taxes, damages available at law or in equity (including incidental, consequential, special, aggravated, exemplary or punitive damages), expense (including consultant’s and expert’s fees and expenses and reasonable costs, fees and expenses of legal counsel on a full indemnity basis, without reduction for tariff rates or similar reductions and reasonable costs, fees and expenses of investigation, defence or settlement) or diminution in value
 
5.            If a Purchaser Indemnified Party becomes aware of any act, omission or state of facts that may give rise to Damages in respect of which a right of indemnification is provided for under Section 3, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”) to the Securityholders.  The Claim Notice shall specify whether the potential Damages arise as a result of a claim by a Person against the Purchaser Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the potential Damages arise as a result of a claim directly by the Purchaser Indemnified Party against the Securityholders (a “Direct Claim”), and shall also specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the information is available), the factual basis for the Direct Claim or Third Party Claim, as the case may be, and the amount of the potential Damages arising therefrom, if known.
 
6.            If, through the fault of the Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Securityholders do not receive a Claim Notice in time effectively to contest the determination of any liability susceptible of being contested or to assert a right to recover an amount under applicable insurance coverage, then the liability of the Securityholders to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement shall be reduced only to the extent that Damages are actually incurred by the Securityholders resulting from the Purchaser Indemnified Party’s failure to give the Claim Notice on a timely basis.  Nothing in this Section 6 shall be construed to affect the time within which a Claim Notice must be delivered pursuant to Section 5 in order to permit recovery pursuant to Section 3.
 
7.            No Damages may be recovered from the Securityholders pursuant to Section 3(a) unless (subject to the fraud exception below) a Claim Notice is delivered by the Purchasers on or before the date that is eighteen months provided, however, that in the event of fraud relating to a representation and warranty of Lucid in the Definitive is Agreement, then notwithstanding the foregoing time limitations, the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to deliver a Claim Notice at any time for purposes of such a claim.  Unless (subject to the fraud exception above) a Claim Notice has been given in accordance with the timing set out herein, the Securityholders shall be released eighteen-month, from all obligations to indemnify the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties under this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement.
B-3

8.            No Damages may be recovered from the Securityholders pursuant to Section 3(a) unless and until the accumulated aggregate amount of Damages of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties exceeds $100,000, in which event the accumulated aggregate amount of all such Damages may be recovered. Such limitation shall have no application to any claim to recover Damages based on indemnities in Section 3(b). The maximum aggregate liability of the Securityholders shall not exceed the total value of the FSD Shares issued to the Securityholders in connection with the Amalgamation. The liability of the Securityholders shall be several and not joint and several and for each of them. In the case of Kotra Parties, they shall be liable for 45.79% of the amount of any Damages for which indemnification is payable under this Agreement and, in the case of Romano Parties, they shall be liable for 29.21% of the amount of any Damages for which indemnification is payable under this Agreement. The amount of any indemnification payable under this Agreement shall be satisfied only by the delivery of FSD Shares for cancellation. For greater certainty, no amount of cash shall be payable to satisfy any indemnification obligation of the Securityholders hereunder. For the purposes of determining the number of FSD Shares to be delivered in satisfaction of any indemnification amount owing under this Agreement, FSD Shares shall be deemed to be the greater of (i) the same value as they did in the Amalgamation; and (ii) the deemed price at the time the Claim Notice is issued.
 
9.            Notwithstanding the provisions of the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario) or any other statute, a Purchaser Indemnified Party may commence a proceeding in respect of Damages arising from any incorrectness in or breach of any representation and warranty of Lucid as referred to in a Claim Notice delivered within the time periods stipulated in Section 5 at any time on or before the later of:
 
(a)
the second anniversary of the last date upon which such Claim Notice is permitted to be delivered under Section 5; and

(b)
the expiry of the limitation period otherwise applicable to such claim,
and any applicable limitation period is hereby so extended to the full extent permitted by law.
 
10.            The limitation period applicable to any proceeding relating to a claim referred to in a Claim Notice in respect of any matter in Section 3(b) shall be solely as prescribed in sections 15-17 of the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario) and any other limitation period in respect of such claim (including that provided for in section 4 of the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario)) is extended accordingly.
 
11.            For greater certainty, for the purpose only of calculating the amount of Damages under this Indemnification and Lock-Up Agreement, the representations and warranties of Lucid contained in The Definitive Agreement or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made without qualifications as to materiality where the words or phrases “material”, “immaterial”, “in all material respects” or words or phrases of similar import are used, such that the amount of Damages payable to an Indemnified Party is not subject to any deduction in respect of amounts below the level of materiality stated in the relevant representation and warranty.  Further, the calculation of such amount shall not be affected by any inspection or inquiries made by or on behalf of the Party entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement.
B-4

12.            FSD hereby accepts each indemnity in favour of each of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties who are not Parties as agent and trustee of such Persons.  FSD may enforce an indemnity in favour of any of the Purchasers’ Indemnified Parties on behalf of each such Persons.
 
13.            In the case of a Direct Claim, the Securityholders shall have 60 days from receipt of a Claim Notice in respect thereof within which to make such investigation as they consider necessary or desirable.  For the purpose of such investigation, the Purchasers shall make available to the Securityholders the information relied upon by the Purchasers’ Indemnified Party to substantiate its right to be indemnified under this Agreement, together with all such other information as the Securityholders may reasonably request.  If the Parties fail to agree at or before the expiration of such 60 day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Purchasers shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to it.
 
14.            In the event a Claim Notice is delivered with respect to a Third Party Claim, the Securityholders shall have the right, at their expense, to participate in but not control the negotiation, settlement or defence of the Third Party Claim, which control shall rest at all times with the Purchasers. The Purchasers shall have the exclusive right to contest, settle or pay the amount claimed and the Securityholders shall be bound by the results obtained by the Purchasers with respect to such Third Party Claim.
 
15.            Each of the Securityholders agrees not to, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, loan, hypothecate, pledge, grant or sell any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any securities of Lucid (collectively, along with any securities resulting from any reconstitution, conversion, exercise or exchange of such securities of Lucid prior to completion of the Acquisition, the “Subject Securities”), held of record or beneficially by the Securityholder as of the date hereof, or any FSD Shares that may be issued by FSD pursuant to the Acquisition to the Securityholder in exchange for the Subject Securities held of record or beneficially by the Securityholder immediately prior to the completion of the Acquisition, as any such shares of FSD may be reconstituted, consolidated, converted or otherwise modified (collectively, the “Acquisition Shares”), or make any short sale of, engage in any hedging transaction with respect to, or enter into any swap, forward or other transaction or arrangement that has the effect of transferring, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such Subject Securities or the Acquisition Shares (regardless of whether such transaction or arrangement is settled by the delivery of Acquisition Shares, other securities of FSD, of Lucid or of another person, cash or otherwise) or agree to or publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing, without the prior written consent of FSD, any such consent to be at the sole discretion of FSD, for a period commencing as of the date hereof and ending on the date that is eighteen (18) months following the completion date of the Acquisition (the completion date of the Acquisition is herein referred to as the “Effective Date”), subject to the exceptions set forth below.
 
16.            The foregoing restrictions and covenants in Section 15 shall cease to apply to the following number of Acquisition Shares effective as of the following dates (each, a “Release Date”) (rounded down in each case to the nearest whole number):
 

B-5


Release Date
Percentage of Acquisition Shares to be Released

6 months following the Effective Date
20%
12 months following the Effective Date
20%
18 months following the Effective Date

TERMINATION

the mutual written agreement of Acquiror and the Securityholder;

(b)
the termination of the Definitive Agreement in accordance with its terms; and

(c)
the Effective Date,

and may be terminated:
 
(a)
by the Securityholder: (i) if any of the representations and warranties of Acquiror in the Definitive Agreement shall not be true and correct in all material respects and such failure to be true and correct results in a Acquiror2 Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Definitive Agreement); (ii) if Acquiror shall not have complied with its covenants to the Securityholder contained in this Agreement, provided that the Securityholder has notified Acquiror in writing of any of the foregoing events and the same has not been cured within ten (10) business days of the date such notice was received by Acquiror; or (iii) if, without the prior written consent of the Securityholder, there is a material decrease in the amount of, or change in the form of, the consideration payable for the Company Shares as set out in the Definitive Agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a decrease in the market price of Acquiror’s shares will not constitute a decrease in the amount of the consideration payable for the Company Shares as set out in the Definitive Agreement; and
 
2 The use of the defined term “Acquiror Material Adverse Effect” is to protect the identity of the Acquiror. This defined term should be read as replacing the word Acquiror with the name of the Acquiror once public disclosure has been made regarding the identity of the Acquiror.
