RECITALS

 

A.           WHEREAS, the Company has entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated March 13, 2015 by and among the Company, Ruthigen, Inc. (“Ruthigen”), a Delaware corporation and Ruthigen Merger, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ruthigen, Inc.; and

 

B.           WHEREAS, the Purchasers wish to purchase from the Company at the Closing (as defined in Section 2.2), and the Company wishes to sell 24,538,999 units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock $0.00001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) and a warrant to purchase 2.193140519 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $0.448266 per whole share in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000 to the Purchasers at the Closing; and

 

C.           WHEREAS, Each Purchaser has agreed to purchase the number of Units, set forth opposite each such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto and the Company has agreed to sell such Units on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Purchase Agreement, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

Article I
PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK

 

1.1Purchase and Sale of the Units to the Purchasers.

 

(a)          On or prior to the Closing (as defined below), the Company shall have authorized the sale and issuance to the Purchasers of up to 24,538,999 Units at the Closing (as defined below) in accordance with this Agreement.

 

(b)          Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Purchase Agreement and in reliance on the representations and warranties set forth or referred to herein, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, at the Closing referred to in Section 2.02 below, if such Closing occurs, the number of Units set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser on Schedule A attached hereto under the caption “Number of Units Purchased”.

 

(c)          The Purchase Price payable by each Purchaser for the Units purchased by it at the Closing under this Purchase Agreement shall be an amount set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto under the caption “Purchase Price”, as applicable. The aggregate purchase price of all Units to be issued and sold by the Company to the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be up to $10,000,000.

 

(d)          The Company and the Purchasers, having adverse interests as a result of arm's length bargaining, agree that (i) neither the Purchasers nor any of their affiliates or partners have rendered or agreed to render any services to the Company in connection with this Agreement or the issuance of the Common Stock. The Purchase Price payable by each Purchaser for the Units purchased by it at the Closing under this Purchase Agreement shall be an amount equal to the number of Units set forth opposite each Purchaser’s name on Schedule A, multiplied by $0.4075146, which amount is set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A hereto under the caption “Purchase Price” for each Closing.

 

 
 

  

1.2The Closing.

 

(a)          The closing of the sale and purchase of the Units under this Purchase Agreement shall be immediately prior to the closing of the Merger Agreement on the Effective Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement). No physical certificates evidencing the Units or the shares or Common Stock or Warrants comprising the Units will be issued and the Units, shares of Common Stock and Warrants will be issued in book-entry form only; provided, however, Pulmatrix shall cause Ruthigen to issue physical certificates for the securities of Ruthigen issued in exchange for the Common Stock and Warrants in the Merger. The parties agree that the delivery of this Purchase Agreement and any other documents at the Closing may be effected by means of an exchange of signatures by facsimile or electronic mail with original copies to follow by mail or courier service. From and after the Effective Date the Common Stock and Warrants comprising each Unit will automatically, without any further action of any person, separate. Prior to the Closing the Purchasers and the Company shall agree on a Purchase Price allocation among the shares of Common Stock and Warrants comprising the Units. Such allocation shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and no party shall take a different position regarding the purchase price allocation.
