Section 1.08 Effect on Equity Interests and Company Options. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party hereto, any Equityholder or any other Person:

(a) Equity Interests of Merger Sub. Each equity interest of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be converted into and exchanged for one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable limited liability company interest of the Surviving Company.

(b) Company Shares. Each Company Share held by a Company Member immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be converted into the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.09 (including with respect to the withholding of the Adjustment Escrow Amount and any distribution out of the Adjustment Escrow Fund), the portion of the Merger Consideration set forth in the Allocation Schedule. The amount of cash each Company Member is entitled to receive for such Company Shares shall be rounded to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all Company Shares held by such Company Member.

(c) Company Options.

(i) Each Company Option (whether a Vested Company Option or an Unvested Company Option) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Closing shall be terminated and canceled at or prior to the Effective Time and shall not be assumed by Parent, and no Company Option shall be substituted with any equivalent option or right to purchase or otherwise acquire any capital stock or other securities of Parent. With respect to each Company Option that is cancelled pursuant to the immediately prior sentence, if the holder of such Company Option has executed and delivered an Option Treatment Agreement to the Company prior to the Closing, then such holder shall be entitled to receive the following in respect of each such cancelled Company Option, subject to and in accordance with Section 1.09 (including with respect to the withholding of the Adjustment Escrow Amount and any distribution out of the Adjustment Escrow Fund), (A) the portion of the Closing Cash Consideration set forth on the Allocation Schedule, (B) with respect to the Milestone Payment (as defined in the Contingent Payment Agreement), if any, that is payable on or prior to the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date pursuant to the Contingent Payment Agreement, the portion of the Milestone Payment payable to such holder as set forth on the Allocation Schedule, which shall be paid in cash pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Contingent Payment Agreement, (C) with respect to each Net Sales Payment (as defined in the Contingent Payment Agreement), if any, that is payable on or prior to the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date pursuant to the Contingent Payment Agreement, the portion of the Net Sales Payment payable to such holder as set forth on the Allocation Schedule, which shall be paid in cash pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Contingent Payment Agreement, and (D) any amounts payable to such holder pursuant to the Equity Value Recognition Bonus Plan, if any, in cash pursuant to the terms of the Equity Value Recognition Bonus Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the vesting of any Unvested Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Closing and that is held by a holder of Company Options who is employed by the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and had not given notice of intent to terminate employment with the Company) shall be automatically accelerated in full effective as of immediately prior to the Closing in order to give effect to this Section 1.08(c)(i). In no event shall amounts related to Milestone Payments or Net Sales Payments be paid to any Company Optionholder more than five (5) years following the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the holder of a Company Option (whether a Vested Company Option or an Unvested Company Option) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Closing fails to execute and deliver an Option Treatment Agreement to the Company prior to the Closing, such holder shall have no rights to any payments or other consideration of the Company Options forfeited pursuant to this Section 1.08(c)(i).

5

(ii) The Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Equity Plan) shall adopt resolutions or take such other actions (including obtaining any required consents or delivering any required notices) as may be required to effect the transactions described in this Section 1.08(c) as of the Effective Time; provided that in no event shall any such action involve the payment or commitment to pay any additional amounts or the incurrence of any additional liabilities other than payment of the consideration set forth herein.

(iii) The Company shall terminate the Company Equity Plan as of the Effective Time and ensure that from and after the Effective Time there are no outstanding rights to acquire any Company Shares pursuant to the Company Equity Plan. The Company shall provide to Parent, at least ten (10) business days prior to the Closing, copies of all documentation evidencing satisfactory completion of the actions necessary and appropriate to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 1.08(c) and will accept all reasonable comments to such documentation as proposed by Parent.

Section 1.09 Payment of Merger Consideration.

(a) Parent Payments and Deposits.

(i) No later than the Effective Time, subject to Section 1.09(b), (A) Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) to each Equityholder such Equityholder’s allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of the Closing Cash Consideration (less any Compensation Payments to be paid pursuant to ‎Section 1.08(c)(i)(A)) in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds (to such account as may be indicated by such Equityholder prior to Closing) and (B) Parent shall issue to each Consenting Company Member such Consenting Company Member’s allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of a number of Parent Shares equal to the Parent Share Amount in the aggregate (the “Closing Share Consideration”); provided that, at any time prior to the Closing Date, a Consenting Company Member may elect, by written notice to Parent, to receive, in lieu of any of the Parent Shares it is so entitled to receive, a Closing Share Warrant exercisable for such number of Parent Shares (in which case, such Closing Share Warrant and the Parent Shares issuable upon exercise thereof, shall constitute part of the Closing Share Consideration).

(ii) No later than the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Escrow Agent the Adjustment Escrow Amount in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing to Parent by the Escrow Agent.

(iii) No later than the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) with the Members’ Representative the Members’ Representative Reserve in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing to Parent by the Members’ Representative (such designation to be made at least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date and set forth in the Spreadsheet).

(iv) No later than the Effective Time, Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) the aggregate amount of unpaid Transaction Expenses as set forth in the Spreadsheet for remittance to the eligible payees in the amounts set forth in the Spreadsheet in accordance with invoices and wire instructions delivered to Parent at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date.

(v) As additional Merger Consideration, Parent shall make the contingent payments required under the Contingent Payment Agreement to the Company Members in accordance with the terms of the Contingent Payment Agreement. Within ten (10) business days of the date such Company Optionholder becomes entitled to such payment pursuant to Section 1.09(c)(i)(B), Section 1.09(c)(i)(C) or Section 1.09(c)(i)(D), Parent will pay (or cause to be paid) such amounts to each such Company Optionholder through Parent’s or the Surviving Company’s payroll systems.

6

(b) Compensation Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely to the extent the payment of any portion of the consideration payable to Company Optionholders (including terminated employees) is compensation with respect to which Parent or its affiliates (including the Surviving Company) is required to deduct or withhold any Taxes pursuant to applicable Law or to report such payments on a Form W-2 (such payments, “Compensation Payments”), Parent will pay (or cause to be paid) such amounts to each such Company Optionholder through Parent’s or the Surviving Company’s payroll systems within ten (10) business days of the date such Company Optionholder becomes entitled to such payment pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Adjustment Escrow Fund.

(i) By virtue of this Agreement and as security for the Shortfall Payment (if any), on the Closing Date, Parent shall withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to the Equityholders and will deposit with Citibank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), the Adjustment Escrow Amount (any and all of such deposits to constitute escrow funds to be governed by the terms of the Escrow Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Escrow Agreement”)), without any act of the Equityholders. Parent shall be deemed to have contributed with respect to each Equityholder its allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of the Adjustment Escrow Amount to the Adjustment Escrow Fund, rounded to the nearest cent ($0.01) (with amounts greater than or equal to $0.005 rounded up). Amounts released from the Adjustment Escrow Fund to the Equityholders shall be distributed to the Equityholders in accordance with their respective allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) and the applicable terms of this Agreement.

(ii) The Adjustment Escrow Amount plus any interest or earnings paid thereon in accordance with the Escrow Agreement (the “Adjustment Escrow Fund”) shall be governed by Section 1.10 and the terms of the Escrow Agreement and shall secure Parent’s right to receive the Shortfall Payment (if any).

(d) Adjustments. If, between the Agreement Date and the Effective Time, the outstanding Company Shares are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any membership interest split, division or subdivision of shares, dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Shares or Company Options. The applicable portion of the Merger Consideration paid or payable as a result of the conversion of the Company Shares and Company Options in accordance with this Agreement shall be paid or payable in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Shares and Company Options, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Company of Company Shares or Company Options that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f) Withholding Rights. Each of the Company, the Surviving Company, Parent, the Escrow Agent, any of their respective agents and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, including to any former holder of Company Shares or Company Options, such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. The Company, the Surviving Company, Parent, any of their respective agents and any other applicable withholding agent shall reasonably cooperate with the recipient of such payment to reduce or eliminate any such required withholding, including providing advance notice that it intends to make such deduction or withholding and the basis therefor. The Company, the Surviving Company, Parent, any of their respective agents and any other applicable withholding agent shall promptly pay over the amount deducted and withheld to the appropriate Tax Authority. Any such Taxes that are so deducted or withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount shall be deducted or withheld from any payments of Merger Consideration made to a Consenting Company Member which has provided a completed and executed IRS Form W-9 other than (i) amounts that are required by Law to be treated as compensatory, or (ii) amounts required to be withheld due to a change in Law after the date hereof.

7

Section 1.10 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Within seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, to the Members’ Representative a statement (the “Closing Statement”), setting forth its good faith determination of the amount of Company Cash, Company Debt, Working Capital, Transaction Expenses and, based on the foregoing, Parent’s proposed Adjusted Closing Cash Consideration. The Closing Statement shall be based solely on (i) facts and circumstance as they exist on or prior to the Closing and (ii) shall not include, reflect, or be based on, in any respect: (A) any of the plans, transactions or changes which Parent intends to initiate or make, or cause to be initiated or made, after the Closing with respect to the Surviving Company or its businesses or assets, (B) the effect of any decision by the Surviving Company or Parent, or event occurring, on or after the Closing, (C) purchase accounting adjustments or other adjustments arising from or resulting as a consequence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (D) the introduction of any rules, guidelines, methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies different from those set forth in the Working Capital Principles.

(b) The Members’ Representative may object to Parent’s calculation of the Company Cash, Company Debt, Working Capital, Transaction Expenses and, based on the foregoing, Parent’s proposed Adjusted Closing Cash Consideration set forth in the Closing Statement by providing written notice of such objection (the “Notice of Objection”) to Parent within thirty (30) days after Parent’s delivery of the Closing Statement (such 30-day period, the “Objection Period”). Such Notice of Objection shall specify in reasonable detail each item that the Members’ Representative disputes (each, a “Disputed Item”), the amount in dispute for each such Disputed Item and the reasons supporting the Members’ Representative’s objection. The Members’ Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement not so disputed by the Members’ Representative.

(c) If the Members’ Representative provides a Notice of Objection to Parent within the Objection Period, the Members’ Representative and Parent shall, during the 30-day period following Parent’s receipt of the Notice of Objection (such 30-day period, the “Resolution Period”), attempt in good faith to resolve each Disputed Item. If the Members’ Representative and Parent are unable to resolve all of the Disputed Items within the Resolution Period (the “Unresolved Items”), the Unresolved Items shall be submitted to a nationally recognized independent valuation, accounting or specialty firm to be mutually agreed upon by the Members’ Representative and Parent (such agreed firm being the “Independent Expert”); provided that, if the Members’ Representative and Parent are unable to so agree within ten (10) days after the end of the Resolution Period, then Parent and the Members’ Representative shall each select a firm and such firms shall jointly select a third nationally recognized valuation or accounting firm to resolve the Unresolved Items. The Independent Expert shall be engaged pursuant to an engagement letter among the Members’ Representative, Parent and the Independent Expert containing customary confidentiality terms and otherwise on terms and conditions consistent with this Section 1.10(c). The Independent Expert shall be instructed, pursuant to such engagement letter, to resolve only the Unresolved Items and not to otherwise investigate any matter independently. The Members’ Representative and Parent each agree to furnish to the Independent Expert access, except as required by Law, to such individuals and such information, books and records as may be reasonably requested by the Independent Expert to make its final determination (and any such information, books and records shall be provided to the other such party prior to its submission or presentation to the Independent Expert). The Members’ Representative and Parent shall also instruct the Independent Expert to render its reasoned written decision as promptly as practicable but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date that information related to the Unresolved Items is presented to the Independent Expert by the Members’ Representative and Parent; provided that if either the Members’ Representative or Parent fails to present requested information or furnish access to the Independent Expert within the time reasonably determined by the Independent Expert, then the Independent Expert shall render its decision based solely on the information actually presented and access actually furnished to it by the Members’ Representative and Parent. With respect to each Unresolved Item, such decision shall be made based on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and, if not in accordance with the position of either the Members’ Representative or Parent, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Parent in the Closing Statement or the Members’ Representative in the Notice of Objection with respect to such Unresolved Item. Except as the Members’ Representative and Parent may otherwise agree, all communications related to the Transactions between the Members’ Representative or Parent or any of their respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Expert, on the other hand, shall be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the other such party. The resolution of Unresolved Items by the Independent Expert shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto (absent manifest error). All fees and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne on a proportionate basis by Parent, on the one hand, and the Members’ Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders), on the other hand, based on the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded in favor of Parent or the Members’ Representative bears to the amount actually contested by such Person. For example, if Parent’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment to Parent, and the Members’ Representative’s calculations would have resulted in a $100,000 net payment to the Equityholders and the Independent Expert’s final determination as adopted pursuant to this Section 1.10(c) results in an aggregate net payment of $50,000 to the Equityholders, then Parent, on the one hand, and the Members’ Representative (on behalf of the Equityholders), on the other hand, shall pay 75% and 25%, respectively, of such fees and expenses.

8

(d) Each party hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide promptly to the other party all information, books and records and reasonable access to Representatives as such other party shall reasonably request in connection with review of the Closing Statement or the Notice of Objection, as the case may be, including all work papers of the accountants who audited, compiled or reviewed such statements or notices (subject to execution of customary work access paper letters if requested by such other party’s auditors), and shall otherwise cooperate in good faith with such other party to arrive at a final determination of the Closing Statement, except as required by Law.

(e) If the Adjusted Closing Cash Consideration exceeds the Closing Cash Consideration (such excess, the “Excess Payment”), then, within five (5) business days after the date on which the Closing Statement is finalized pursuant to this Section 1.10, the Members’ Representative, acting on behalf of the Equityholders, and Parent shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to, subject to Section 1.09(b), pay (or cause to be paid) to each Equityholder from the Adjustment Escrow Amount such Equityholder’s allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of the Adjustment Escrow Fund, and Parent will, subject to Section 1.09(b), pay (or cause to be paid) in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to each Equityholder such Equityholder’s allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of the Excess Payment; provided that, if the aggregate Excess Payment is less than $50,000, then the Excess Payment shall be deemed to be $0. In no event shall Parent be liable under this Section 1.10 for any amount in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Amount, which shall represent each Equityholder’s sole and exclusive recourse with respect to the Closing Cash Consideration.

(f) If the Closing Cash Consideration exceeds the Adjusted Closing Cash Consideration (such amount, the “Shortfall Payment”), then, within five (5) business days after the date on which the Closing Statement is finalized pursuant to this Section 1.10, the Members’ Representative, acting on behalf of the Equityholders, and Parent shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release to Parent (by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Parent) from the Adjustment Escrow Amount the Shortfall Payment and to, subject to Section 1.09(b), pay (or cause to be paid) to each Equityholder from the Adjustment Escrow Amount such Equityholder’s allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule) of the funds remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Amount; provided that, if the Shortfall Payment is less than $50,000, then the Shortfall Payment shall be deemed to be $0. In no event shall the Equityholders be liable under this Section 1.10 for any amount in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Amount, which shall represent Parent’s sole and exclusive recourse with respect to the Closing Cash Consideration.

(g) For Tax purposes, any payment pursuant to Section 1.10(e) or Section 1.10(f) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 1.11 Tax Consequences. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub makes any representations or warranties to any member of the Company Group or to any Equityholder regarding the Tax treatment of the Merger, or any of the Tax consequences to any member of the Company Group or any Equityholder of this Agreement, the Merger or the other Transactions or the other agreements contemplated by this Agreement. The Company acknowledges that the Company Group and the Equityholders are relying solely on their own Tax advisors in connection with the Tax consequences of this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions and the other agreements contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 1.12 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Closing, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and interest in, to and under, and/or possession of, all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Company are fully authorized, in the name and on behalf of the Company or otherwise, to take all lawful action necessary or desirable to accomplish such purpose or acts, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

Section 1.13 Members’ Representative.

(a) Appointment; Authority. By approving the Merger and by receiving the benefits thereof, including any consideration payable hereunder, each Equityholder irrevocably approves the constitution and appointment of, and hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, as of the Closing, as the sole, exclusive, true and lawful agent, representative and attorney-in-fact of all of the Equityholders and each of them with respect to any and all matters relating to, arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, including (i) to execute and deliver this Agreement and all amendments, waivers, Ancillary Agreements, certificates and documents that the Members’ Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, (ii) to do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of the Equityholders that the Members’ Representative deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement as fully and completely as the Equityholders could do if personally present, (iii) to comply with Judgments and awards of arbitrators related thereto, (iv) to discuss, negotiate, resolve and fully and finally settle on behalf of the Equityholders any matters relating to Taxes pursuant to Section 5.11, (v) to take any action, including litigating, defending or enforcing any actions, and to make, deliver and sign any certificate, notice, consent or instrument required or permitted to be made or delivered under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (an “Instrument”) which the Members’ Representative determines in its sole and absolute discretion to be necessary, appropriate or desirable in connection therewith, (vi) to incur and pay expenses on behalf of the Equityholders and to hire or retain, at the sole expense of the Equityholders, such counsel, investment bankers, accountants, representatives and other professional advisors as it determines in its sole and absolute discretion to be necessary, advisable or appropriate in order to carry out and perform its rights and obligations hereunder, (vii) to give and receive all documents, certificates and notices and make all determinations on behalf of the Equityholders required under this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, (viii) to receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements hereto, (ix) to discuss, negotiate, resolve and fully and finally settle on behalf of the Equityholders any matters relating to the Contingent Payment Agreement and (x) take any and all actions relating to the administration of any Additional Consideration, including the initiation, defense and/or settlement of any disputes relating to any Additional Consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members’ Representative shall have no obligation to act on behalf of the Equityholders, except as expressly provided herein, and for purposes of clarity, there are no obligations of the Members’ Representative in any other Ancillary Agreement, schedule or exhibit hereto or thereto or the Company Disclosure Letter. All actions, notices, instructions, communications and determinations of the Members’ Representative shall conclusively be deemed to have been authorized by, and shall be binding upon, each Equityholder and such Equityholder’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Equityholder, and all defenses which may be available to any Equityholder to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest any action of the Members’ Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement are waived. The Members’ Representative is authorized to act on behalf of the Equityholders notwithstanding any dispute among the Equityholders. Any party hereto or its affiliates receiving an Instrument from the Members’ Representative shall have the right to rely in good faith upon such Instrument, and to act in accordance with the Instrument without independent investigation. The Members’ Representative shall be entitled to: (A) rely upon the Spreadsheet, (B) rely upon any signature it reasonably believes to be genuine, and (C) reasonably assume that a signatory has proper authorization to sign on behalf of the applicable Equityholder or other party. The Equityholders hereby authorize the Members’ Representative to use and disclose their personal information in connection with and for purposes consistent with the Members’ Representative’s appointment hereunder.

(b) Resignation, Election and Replacement. The Members’ Representative may resign at any time. From and after the Closing until the date when all obligations under this Agreement have been discharged, the Consenting Company Members, may, from time to time upon written notice to the Members’ Representative and Parent, remove any Members’ Representative or appoint a new Members’ Representative to fill any vacancy created by the death, incapacitation, resignation or removal of any Members’ Representative. A copy of any appointment by the Consenting Company Members of any successor Members’ Representative shall be provided to Parent promptly after it shall have been effected. Each successor Members’ Representative shall have all of the power, authority, rights and privileges conferred by this Agreement upon the original Members’ Representative, and the term “Members’ Representative” as used herein shall be deemed to include any successor Members’ Representative.

(c) No Liability of Members’ Representative or Parent. Neither the Members’ Representative nor its members, managers, directors, officers, contractors, agents or employees (collectively, the “Members’ Representative Group”) shall be liable in connection with its services pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. The Members’ Representative Group shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel. Each of Parent, the Surviving Company, each member of the Company Group and each of their respective affiliates and Representatives may rely entirely and conclusively, without further inquiry, on its dealings with, and notices to and from, the Members’ Representative to satisfy any obligations it may have under this Agreement or otherwise to the Equityholders. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall have any liability to any Equityholder or any other Person for any action taken by the Members’ Representative.

10

(d) Indemnity; Costs and Expenses. The Equityholders shall indemnify the Members’ Representative against any reasonable, documented, and out-of-pocket losses, liabilities and expenses (“Members’ Representative’s Costs”) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and any related agreements, in each case as such Members’ Representative’s Cost is suffered or incurred; provided that in the event that any such Members’ Representative’s Cost is finally adjudicated to have been caused by the bad faith or fraud of the Members’ Representative, the Members’ Representative will reimburse the Equityholders the amount of such indemnified Members’ Representative’s Cost to the extent attributable to such bad faith or fraud. Members’ Representative’s Costs may be recovered by the Members’ Representative from (i) the funds in the Members’ Representative Reserve and (ii) any other funds that become payable to the Equityholders under this Agreement at such time as such amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Equityholders; provided that while the Members’ Representative may be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Equityholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Members’ Representative’s Costs as they are suffered or incurred. In no event will the Members’ Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Equityholders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Equityholders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Members’ Representative hereunder. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Members’ Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Members’ Representative Reserve. The Members’ Representative Reserve shall be maintained by the Members’ Representative in a segregated account. The Members’ Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Members’ Representative Reserve shall be used for the purposes of paying directly or reimbursing the Members’ Representative for any expenses incurred by the Members’ Representative pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. The Equityholders shall not receive interest or other earnings on the Members’ Representative Reserve and the Equityholders irrevocably transfer and assign to the Members’ Representative any ownership right that they may have in any interest or earnings that may accrue on funds held in the Members’ Representative Reserve. The Members’ Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Members’ Representative Reserve and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations. The Equityholders acknowledge that the Members’ Representative is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice. The Members’ Representative shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Members’ Representative Reserve other than as a result of its bad faith or fraud. The Members’ Representative may contribute funds to the Members’ Representative Reserve from any consideration otherwise distributable to the Equityholders. For Tax purposes, the Members’ Representative Reserve shall be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Equityholders at the time of Closing. Upon the reasonable determination of the Members’ Representative that the Members’ Representative Reserve is no longer required to be withheld, the Members’ Representative shall deliver (solely out of the Members’ Representative Reserve) the amount remaining in the Members’ Representative Reserve, if any, (after payment of all of the Members’ Representative’s Costs) to the Equityholders, in the case of the portion of such amount remaining in the Members’ Representative Reserve to be paid to applicable Equityholders, for payment to such Equityholders.

(f) Representations and Warranties of the Members’ Representative. The Members’ Representative represents and warrants to the each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub that (i) it has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, (ii) the execution and delivery by the Members’ Representative of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action and no other proceedings are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and (iii) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Members’ Representative and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of the Members’ Representative in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by the Bankruptcy, Equity and Indemnity Exception (subject to the laws of agency).

Section 1.14 Letter of Transmittal.

(a) On the Closing Date, to the extent not previously made available, the Company will deliver or cause to be delivered to each Company Member, a letter of transmittal substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Letter of Transmittal”). Any Letter of Transmittal received prior to the Closing shall be deemed effective immediately following the Effective Time.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as may be required pursuant to Law, no payments shall be made hereunder to any Company Member unless and until such Person has delivered to Parent (i) a duly executed Letter of Transmittal and (ii) an executed Form W-9 (collectively, the “LOT Documents”). For the avoidance of doubt, any Company Member who delivers the LOT Documents in accordance with this Section 1.14 prior to the Closing shall receive the amounts payable to such Person at the Closing.

Section 1.15 Reliance on Allocation Schedule. The parties agree that Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company and the Members’ Representative shall be entitled to rely on the Allocation Schedule in making payments under this Agreement and shall not be responsible for, and shall have no liability to any Person for any liabilities with respect to, the calculations or the determinations regarding such calculations in such Allocation Schedule or updated Allocation Schedule, and all obligations to make such payments shall be deemed fulfilled to the extent such payments are made in accordance with the Allocation Schedule or any updated Allocation Schedule. Payment of all amounts payable by or on behalf of Parent as set forth in the Allocation Schedule (or any updated Allocation Schedule) shall be deemed to constitute payment by Parent to each of the Equityholders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and satisfaction of Parent’s obligation to pay such amounts under this Agreement. In the event of any error or omission in the Allocation Schedule (or any updated Allocation Schedule) or dispute regarding any payments made in accordance therewith, each Equityholder shall look only to the other Equityholders (and not to the Surviving Company or Parent) for payment and, subject to Parent’s obligation to pay the Merger Consideration under Section 1.09(a), hereby waives any claim, action or proceeding against the Surviving Company or Parent with respect thereto (or any right to assert such claim, action or proceeding) and forever discharges Parent and the Surviving Company from any liabilities in connection therewith or resulting therefrom. Each Equityholder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless Parent and the Surviving Company for its pro rata share of any liabilities arising out of, or resulting from, any errors or omissions in the Allocation Schedule or any calculation set forth therein or payments made in accordance therewith. No error in or omission from the Allocation Schedule shall effect the finality of the Closing.

To the extent that any Promised Equity Grantee has not signed a Promised Equity Cancellation Agreement prior to the date that is five (5) business days prior to the Closing, the Company shall grant fully-vested Company Options covering a number of Company Common Shares so promised to such Promised Equity Grantee on the date that is five (5) business days prior to the Closing, such Company Option to have a per share exercise price that equals or exceed the then-current fair market value of a Company Common Share and will provide for forfeiture for no consideration if not exercised prior to the Closing.

(d) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to assume, honor and continue the Company Severance Plan (as defined in the Company Disclosure Letter), any Contracts providing for severance and set forth in Section 5.05(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter in accordance with their respective terms as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and the Equity Value Recognition Bonus Plan.

(e) If the Company has not paid annual bonuses in respect of the 2025 fiscal year (the “2025 Annual Bonuses”) prior to the Effective Time, then, no later than March 15, 2026, and subject to all such unpaid amounts in respect of any portion of the Company’s 2025 fiscal year prior to the Closing being included as a Current Liability, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to pay, through the Surviving Company’s payroll systems, bonuses to each individual who was employed by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time in an amount equal to such individual’s annual cash bonus in respect of the 2025 calendar year, calculated as if any performance targets conditioning the payment of such bonus have been achieved in full, in each case net of any amounts as are required to be withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, subject to the individual’s continued employment through the payment date (the “Payment Date”). If Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their respective affiliates terminates the employment of any Company Employee for any reason other than for Cause (as defined in the Company Severance Plan) or on account of such Company Employee’s death or disability prior to the Payment Date and provided that the 2025 Annual Bonuses and any amounts payable pursuant to the Company Sales Incentive Plan, in each case, in respect of any portion of the Company’s 2025 fiscal year prior to the Closing being included as a Current Liability, (i) such Company Employee shall receive a pro-rata portion of their 2025 Annual Bonus within five (5) business days of the their date of termination, subject to such individual’s execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, Parent and related Persons (as required by the Company Severance Plan), and (ii) if such Company Employee participated in a Company Sales Incentive Plan, then such Company Employee shall receive a pro-rata portion of their award thereunder for the payment period in which such individual was terminated within five (5) business days of the their date of termination, as if such individual had achieved their sales quota for such period (the “Pro-Rated 2025 Annual Bonuses”).

51

(g) With respect to any group health plan maintained by Parent or any of its subsidiaries in which any Company Employee is eligible to participate after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such employees and their eligible dependents and beneficiaries, to the extent such limitations were waived, satisfied or did not apply to such employees or eligible dependents or beneficiaries under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan in which such employees participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Company Employees and their eligible dependents and beneficiaries with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Effective Time under any Company Benefit Plan in satisfying any analogous deductible or out-of-pocket maximum requirements for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to waive any waiting period or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a Company Employee and his or her eligible dependents on or after the Effective Time, in each case to the extent such Company Employee or eligible dependent had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous Company Benefit Plan prior to the Effective Time.

(h) With respect to any accrued but unused vacation time to which any Company Employee is entitled pursuant to the vacation policies applicable to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, as applicable (and without duplication of benefits), allow such Company Employee to use such accrued vacation time in accordance with the practice and policies of Parent or the Surviving Company, as they may be amended from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, all accrued but unused vacation time to which any Company Employee is entitled pursuant to the vacation policies applicable to such Company Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be included as a Current Liability to the extent required by the Working Capital Principles.

(i) No provision of this Section 5.05(i) shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary rights in any Company Employee or any other Person (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) in respect of this Section 5.05 or any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Company Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Agreement or any Surviving Company Plan or other employee program or any plan or arrangement of Parent or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) be construed to modify, amend or establish any benefit plan, program or arrangement or (iii) subject to the Parent’s compliance with its obligations to provide the severance benefits specified in Section 5.05(d), pay the 2025 Annual Bonuses and amounts pursuant to the Company Sales Incentive Plan pursuant to Section 5.05(e), in any way affect the ability of the parties hereto or any other Person to modify, amend or terminate any of its benefit plans, programs or arrangements.

55

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Members’ Representative shall have no obligation to prepare or file any Tax Returns.

(c) Apportionment of Straddle Tax Periods. For purposes of this Agreement (including for purposes of determining Accrued Income Taxes), the parties agree to use the following conventions for determining the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the Straddle Tax Period ending on the Closing Date: (i) in the case of property Taxes and other similar Taxes imposed on a periodic basis, the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Tax Period ending on and including the Closing Date shall be determined by multiplying the Taxes for the entire Straddle Tax Period by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Tax Period; and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes (including income Taxes, sales Taxes, employment Taxes and withholding Taxes), the amount attributable to the portion of the Straddle Tax Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined as if the Company and/or such Subsidiary filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Tax Period ending as of the end of the day on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books” methodology. Any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Tax Period ending on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Tax Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Tax Period.

Parent shall pay to the Equityholders and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, for disbursement to the Equityholders (in accordance with their allocable portion (as set forth on the Allocation Schedule)) any such ERC Payroll Tax Refund Amount within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. If Parent or the Surviving Company has to subsequently repay such ERC Payroll Tax Refund Amount (including any interest in respect thereof) to any Governmental Entity, the Equityholders shall promptly repay any amounts received by them under this Section  ‎5.11(d) to Parent. Any other Tax refunds received by Parent or the Surviving Corporation may be retained by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable.

(e) Pre-Closing Distribution.

(i) Tax Reporting Matters. For U.S. federal, state and local income Tax reporting purposes, the Parties intend, and agree to treat, the Pre-Closing Distribution as a distribution of property governed by Section 301 of the Code (the fair market value of which shall be determined pursuant to Section 5.11(e)(ii)). The Company and Parent currently expect to report the amount of the Pre-Closing Distribution as a non-dividend distribution in Box 3 of IRS Form 1099-DIV. At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for issuing IRS Form 1099-DIV for the Pre-Closing Distribution to the Consenting Company Members, Parent shall provide written notification to the Consenting Company Members either confirming its intention to report the Pre-Closing Distribution as a non-dividend distribution on Form 1099-DIV or, if it cannot provide such confirmation because the Company expects to report positive earnings and profits for such taxable year, informing the Consenting Company Members of its determination that the Company expects to report positive earnings and profits for such taxable year and the estimated amount thereof.  In that event, Parent shall consult the Consenting Company Members in good faith as to whether it is possible to eliminate the Company’s positive earnings and profits and, if requested by the Consenting Company Members, shall cause the Company to elect under Section 174A(f)(2)(A)(i) to deduct any and all remaining unamortized domestic research and experimentation expenditures in the Company’s Pre-Closing Tax Period ending with the Closing Date. Consistent with the foregoing, Parent shall cause the Company to file IRS Form 5452 and any other tax forms required to substantiate the reporting of the Pre-Closing Distribution.

56

(ii) Valuation of Pre-Closing Distribution. For U.S. federal and state income Tax purposes (including Sections 301 and 311(b) of the Code), the fair market value of the Pre-Closing Distribution will be as mutually determined and agreed by Parent and the Consenting Company Members. If Parent and Consenting Company Members, acting in good faith, are unable to agree on the fair market value of the Pre-Closing Distribution by thirty (30) days prior to the due date for issuing IRS Form 1099-DIV reporting the Pre-Closing Distribution to the Consenting Company Members, the fair market value will be determined by a reputable third-party valuation firm mutually acceptable to Parent and the Consenting Company Members. Each of Parent and the Consenting Company Members will bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees of such valuation firm.

Section 5.12 Merger Sub and Surviving Company Compliance. Parent shall cause Merger Sub or the Surviving Company, as applicable, to comply with all of its respective obligations under this Agreement and Merger Sub shall not engage in any activities of any nature except as provided in or contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.13 280G Approval. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement (and no later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date), the Company shall (i) obtain waivers (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent) from each Person who has a right to any payments and/or benefits as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and as to which such Person waives his or her rights to some or all of such payments and/or benefits (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) applicable to such Person so that all remaining payments and/or benefits applicable to such Person shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) and (ii) following the execution of the waivers described in clause (i), submit to the Company Members for approval any Waived 280G Benefits pursuant to a vote intended to meet the requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, in a manner and with a disclosure document that shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, and prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent notification and documentation reasonably satisfactory to Parent that a vote of the Company Members was solicited in conformance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and that either the requisite member approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the member vote (the “280G Member Approval”), or that the 280G Member Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, that the Waived 280G Benefits shall not be made or provided. At least five (5) days prior to obtaining any waiver or soliciting stockholder approval, the Company shall provide Parent with copies of all Section 280G-related documents, including, without limitation, any Section 280G analysis prepared by or on behalf of the Company, the stockholder disclosure document, waivers and stockholder consents, for Parent’s review and approval and shall accept all reasonable comments made thereto by Parent (with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

57

Section 5.14 R&W Policy. From and after the period commencing on the Closing Date and terminating on the expiration of the applicable coverage period as set forth in the R&W Policy delivered to the Company at the Closing, Parent (a) shall (and shall cause its affiliates to) maintain the R&W Policy on substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the R&W Policy delivered to the Company at the Closing, (b) shall cause the R&W Policy at the Closing to provide that the insurer shall waive and not pursue any subrogation rights against any Equityholder, the Members’ Representative or any of their respective affiliates or Representatives, other than subrogation rights against the such party in the case of actual Fraud committed by such party, (c) shall not (and shall cause its affiliates to not) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision in the R&W Policy in a manner material and adverse to any Equityholder, the Members’ Representative or any of their respective affiliates or Representatives without the prior written consent of the Members’ Representative and (d) shall cause the R&W Policy at Closing to provide that the Equityholders are third-party beneficiaries of the subrogation and related provisions in the R&W Policy. Parent shall pay all costs and expenses related to the R&W Policy, including the total premium, underwriting costs, brokerage commissions, Taxes related to the R&W Policy and other fees and expenses of the R&W Policy.

Section 5.15 Third-Party Consents. Prior to the Closing, except as otherwise agreed by Parent and the Company, Parent and the Company shall cooperate with the other in connection with, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not require any concession or expenditure) to make, obtain or deliver (as applicable), the consents, waivers and approvals of, or notices to, third parties (other than Governmental Entities) required in connection with the Transactions (collectively, the “Third-Party Consents”). For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to obtain any such consent, waiver or approval shall not constitute a breach of covenant or agreement for any purposes of this Agreement.

Section 5.16  Pre-Closing Distribution. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and the Company shall cause each of its applicable affiliates to effect, by way of a dividend declaration, the assignment of the Company’s right, title and interest in and to the Feptanbli Product and the Feptanbli License Agreement, in accordance with an assignment agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (such assignment agreement, the “Feptanbli Assignment Agreement” and, the actions contemplated thereby and by this Section 5.16, the “Pre-Closing Distribution”).

Section 5.17 TOPROL Acquisition. Following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, comply with the terms and conditions of an asset purchase agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L (the “TOPROL Acquisition Agreement”).

(ii) if any Legal Restraint permanently preventing or prohibiting the consummation of the Merger or other Transactions shall be in effect and shall have become final and non-appealable; provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section ‎5.04 in respect of any such Legal Restraint;

(c) by Parent, (i) if the Company breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform individually or in the aggregate with all such other breaches or failures to perform (A) would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section ‎6.03(a) to be satisfied and (B) cannot be cured by the Outside Date, or if capable of being cured by the Outside Date, has not been cured prior to the earlier of (I) thirty (30) days after the giving of written notice to the Company of such breach or failure to perform and (II) three (3) business days prior to the Outside Date (provided that Parent and Merger Sub are not then in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement) or (ii) if the Company does not deliver to Parent the Written Consent constituting the Company Member Approval within twelve (12) hours after the execution and delivery of this Agreement; or

The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section ‎7.01 (other than pursuant to Section ‎7.01(a)) shall give written notice of such termination to each other party hereto and specify the applicable provision or provisions hereof pursuant to which such termination is being effected.

Section 7.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either the Company or Parent as provided in Section ‎7.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Parent or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, except that (a) the last sentence of Section ‎5.01, Section ‎5.07, this Section ‎7.02 and Article VIII, and any definitions contained in this Agreement and referred to but not contained in any such provisions, shall survive such termination and (b) no such termination shall relieve any party of any liability or damages to any other party resulting from Fraud or the willful and material breach by such party of any representation, warranty or covenant set forth in this Agreement, in which case the non-breaching party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity (including, in the case of any such Fraud or willful and material breach by Parent or Merger Sub, damages payable to the Company based on the lost opportunity to receive the Merger Consideration that the Company Members would have received if the Merger were consummated in accordance with this Agreement).

The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Section 7.04 Procedure for Termination, Amendment, Extension or Waiver. A termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section ‎7.01 or an amendment of this Agreement or an extension or waiver with respect to this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.03 shall, in order to be effective, require, in the case of the Company prior to the Closing, action by its Board of Directors or the duly authorized designee of its Board of Directors.

Section 8.10 Specific Enforcement; Jurisdiction.

(a) The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court referred to in Section ‎8.10(b), without proof of damages or otherwise (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or other security in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The right to specific enforcement shall include the right of the Company to cause Parent and Merger Sub to cause the Merger and the other Transactions to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without such right, none of the parties would have entered into this Agreement. If, prior to the Outside Date, any party brings any Proceeding, in each case in accordance with Section ‎8.10(b), to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Proceeding is pending, plus twenty (20) business days or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Proceeding, as the case may be.

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the State of Delaware, for the purpose of any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to such Proceeding may be heard and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, any other court of the State of Delaware or any Federal court sitting in the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery, any other court of the State of Delaware and any Federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in the event any Proceeding arises out of this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other Transactions, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) irrevocably consents to the service of process in any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other Transactions, on behalf of itself or its property, by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section ‎8.02 (provided that nothing in this Section ‎8.10(b) shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law) and (iv) agrees that it will not bring any Proceeding relating to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other Transactions in any court other than the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or any Federal court sitting in the State of Delaware). The parties hereto agree that a final trial court judgment in any such Proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law; provided that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.

82

Section 8.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE MERGER, ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION ‎8.11.

Section 8.12 Cooperation. The parties agree to provide reasonable cooperation with each other and to execute and deliver such further documents, certificates, agreements and instruments and to take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the other parties to evidence or effect the Transactions and to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

Section 8.13 Representation. Each of the parties hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees and affiliates, that Fenwick & West LLP may serve as counsel to each and any of the Members’ Representative, the Equityholders and their respective affiliates (individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”), on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, Fenwick & West LLP (or any successor) may serve as counsel to the Seller Group or any director, member, partner, officer, employee or affiliate of the Seller Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such representation of the Company, and each of the parties hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each of such parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Upon and after the Closing, the Surviving Company shall cease to have any future attorney-client relationship with Fenwick & West LLP, unless and to the extent Fenwick & West LLP is specifically engaged in writing by the Surviving Company to represent the Surviving Company after the Closing and such engagement involves no conflict of interest with respect to the Equityholders. The parties agree to take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that any privilege attaching as a result of Fenwick & West LLP representing the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect. As to any privileged attorney-client communications between Fenwick & West LLP and the Company prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”), each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company, together with any of their respective affiliates, subsidiaries, successors or assigns, agree that no such party may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action against or involving any of the parties after the Closing; provided that the foregoing does not waive or excuse Fenwick & West LLP from complying with all applicable rules of professional conduct regarding the confidentiality of any client information of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a dispute arises between Parent or any of its affiliates (including the Surviving Company), on the one hand, and a third party other than (and unaffiliated with) the Equityholders, on the other hand, after the Closing, then Parent and its affiliates (including the Surviving Company) may assert such attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such third party of confidential communications by Fenwick & West LLP.

83

Section 8.14 Independent Nature of Company Members. The obligations of each Company Member under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection herewith are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Company Member, and no Company Member shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Company Member under this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith. Each Company Member shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection herewith. The decision of each Company Member to acquire rights under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection herewith has been made by such Company Member independently of any other Company Member and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Parent or any of its subsidiaries that may have been made or given by any other Company Member or by any agent, attorney, advisor, representative or employee of any other Company Member and no Company Member nor any of its agents, attorneys, advisors, representatives or employees shall have any liability to any other Company Member (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith, and no action taken by any Company Member pursuant hereto or thereto (including an Company Member’s acquisition of rights hereunder or thereunder), shall be deemed to constitute the Company Members as, and each of the Company Members acknowledges and agrees that the Company Members do not thereby constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Company Members are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and neither Parent nor any of its affiliates shall assert any contrary position.

(b)if the Average Sale Price of such Product included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product can be determined but the Average Sale Price of the other products or, solely with respect to Bundled Products, services included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, cannot be determined, then multiply the Net Sales of such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, by the fraction A/C where “A” is the Average Sale Price of such Product included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, when sold separately and “C” is the Average Sale Price of such Bundled Product; or

(c)if (1) the Average Sale Price of such Product included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, is not available for such period or (2) such Product included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, is not sold separately in material numbers, then multiply the Net Sales of such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, by a percentage reasonably determined by mutual agreement of Parent and the Members’ Representative that represents the proportionate economic value of such Product included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable, relative to the economic value contributed by the other products or, solely with respect to Bundled Products, services included in such Combination Product or Bundled Product, as applicable.

If The Wall Street Journal ceases to publish such exchange rate, then the rate of exchange to be used shall be that reported in such other business publication of national circulation in the U.S. on which Parent and the Members’ Representative reasonably agree.

(e)Records Retention and Inspection Rights.

(i)Parent shall maintain (and shall cause its Affiliates, including the Surviving Company to maintain) complete and accurate data and records pertaining to Net Sales of each Product for at least three (3) years following the end of the calendar quarter to which they pertain.

The independent certified public accountant shall report to the Member’s Representative only whether there has been an underpayment or overpayment of the Net Sales Payments and, if so, the amount thereof and information related to the determination of such amount, and such accountant’s determinations shall be final and binding upon the Parties, absent manifest error. Any inspection conducted under this Section 3(e)(ii) shall be at the expense of (A) Parent, if such inspection establishes any underpayment of the Net Sales Payments required to be made hereunder of five percent (5%) or more for any applicable period, (B) the Member’s Representative, if such inspection establishes no underpayment of the Net Sales Payments required to be made hereunder for any applicable period, and (C) shall be split as between Parent and the Member’s Representative based on linear interpolation in the event of an underpayment of Net Sales Payments of between one one-hundredth of one percent (.01%) and five percent (5%) for any applicable period (by way of example, if an inspection is initiated in accordance with this Section 3(e)(ii) that determines an underpayment of three percent (3.0%) of the total Net Sales Payments for the applicable period, Parent shall be responsible for sixty percent (60%) of the applicable expense). Any underpayment shall be paid by Parent to each Contingent Payment Holder, based on such Contingent Payment Holder’s Pro Rata Share thereof, within fifteen (15) Business Days, with interest on the underpayment at the rate specified in Section 3(a) above from the date such payment was originally due. Any overpayment shall be paid by the Member’s Representative to Parent within fifteen (15) Business Days or credited against future Net Sales Payments due, at Parent’s sole discretion.

Exhibit E-14

4. M&A Transaction or Exclusive Licensing Transaction. In the event that Parent desires to consummate an M&A Transaction or an Exclusive Licensing Transaction with respect to any Product after the Effective Time and prior to the later of (x) the expiration of the Milestone Period and (y) the expiration of the Extended Net Sales Payment Period, Parent shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof, including, as applicable, the Agreed Disclosure Process, (i) give written notice of such decision to the Members’ Representative as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of such transaction), which such notice shall include (A) a reasonably detailed description of such transaction, (B) the name of, and detailed financial and other information in respect of, the counterparty to such proposed transaction (the “Assignee”), including, as applicable, information necessary to determine if the Assignee is a Qualified Assignee, and (C) the counterparty’s plans for commercialization of such Product, and (ii) cause such Assignee to (x) expressly agree in writing to assume and succeed to all of the obligations, duties and covenants of Parent and its Affiliates under this Agreement, (y) abide by and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as Parent as though such Assignee were directly party to this Agreement, including, in all cases, the obligations of Parent with respect to each Milestone Payment and the Net Sales Payments and the diligence obligations set forth in Sections 2(a)(ii) and 3(b) and (z) deliver to the Members’ Representative an instrument of assumption, for the benefit of the Contingent Payment Holders, effecting the assumption and succession of all of the obligations, duties and covenants of Parent and its Affiliates under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates to not, effect any M&A Transaction or Exclusive Licensing Transaction without the prior written consent of the Members’ Representative unless the Assignee is a Qualified Assignee and the requirements set forth above in this Section 4 have been satisfied in full. Parent shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates to not, effect any Parent Change of Control within the meaning of clause (a) of the definition thereof unless the requirements set forth in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 4 have been satisfied in full, with the Person acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of Parent being deemed the Assignee for purposes thereof.

Exhibit E-15

5. MNPI. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, other than as set forth in any Net Sales Report (but subject to compliance with Section 4(c)) Parent shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, representatives and agents, to not, provide the Members’ Representative, the Contingent Payment Holders or any of their respective Affiliates, representatives or agents, with any MNPI regarding Parent or any of its Affiliates without the express prior written consent of the Members’ Representative and any such other Person. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Members’ Representative nor any Contingent Payment Holder (nor any of their respective Affiliates) shall have any duty of trust or confidence with respect to, or duty not to trade on the basis of, any MNPI regarding Parent or its securities (i) provided by, or on behalf of, Parent, any of its Subsidiaries, any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives or agents in violation of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 5 or (ii) otherwise possessed by any such Person as a result of any violation of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement requiring Parent to publicly disclose information in a press release, filing with the SEC or otherwise (collectively, including the covenants set forth in this Section 5, the “Disclosure Covenants”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that Parent believes that a notice or communication to the Members’ Representative or any Contingent Payment Holder (other than a Net Sales Report but subject to compliance with Section 4(c)) contains MNPI relating to Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of their respective property or equity, Parent shall (i) provide such notice or communication to counsel to the Members’ Representative (which shall be Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Attn: Mark D. Wood) or such other counsel as shall have been designated in writing by the Members’ Representative, and (ii) notify the Members’ Representative or such Contingent Payment Holder, as applicable that such a notice or communication has been provided to such counsel (without disclosing any details thereof that might constitute MNPI). Upon receipt or delivery by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, unless Parent has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates or their respective property or equity, Parent shall within one (1) Business Day after any such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information in a widely disseminated press release and/or filing with the SEC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Parent determines in good faith that it is necessary to disclose MNPI to the Members’ Representative for any purpose relating to this Agreement (a “Necessary Disclosure”), Parent shall inform counsel to the Members’ Representative (which shall be Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Attn: Mark D. Wood) or such other counsel as shall have been designated in writing by the Members’ Representative) of such determination without disclosing the applicable MNPI, and Parent and such counsel on behalf of the Members’ Representative shall endeavor to agree upon a process for making such Necessary Disclosure to the Members’ Representative or its representatives that is mutually acceptable to the Members’ Representative and Parent (an “Agreed Disclosure Process”). Thereafter, Parent shall be permitted to make such Necessary Disclosure only in accordance with the Agreed Disclosure Process. Parent acknowledges and agrees that the Contingent Payment Holders and their Affiliates will rely upon the foregoing representations, warranties and agreements and the other disclosure obligations of Parent hereunder in effecting transactions in Parent Shares and other securities of Parent and other Persons.

Exhibit E-16

6.Representations and Warranties of Parent. Parent and the Company jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Members’ Representative and the Contingent Payment Holders that:

(a)Organization. Each of Parent and the Company is conducting its business in compliance with, and is not in violation of, its organizational documents. Parent’s organizational documents are in full force and effect. Parent is validly existing as a Delaware corporation and is in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. Each of Parent and the Company (i) has full power and authority (and all governmental licenses, authorizations, permits, consents and approvals) to (x) own its properties, conduct its business, (y) enter into, and perform its obligations under, this Agreement and, in the case of Parent, any Parent Share Warrants, and (z) consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) is duly qualified as a foreign entity, and licensed and in good standing, under the Laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification or license, in each case of this clause (ii), where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

(b)Authority; Execution; Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of Parent and the Company, and any Parent Share Warrants will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by Parent, and no further consent or authorization is or will be required by Parent, the Company, Parent’s or the Company’s board of directors (or other equivalent governing body) or the holders of any of Parent’s or the Company’s equity. This Agreement constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of each of Parent and the Company, and any Parent Share Warrant will constitute a valid, legal and binding obligation of Parent, in each case enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or filing with any Governmental Entity is required for (i) the execution, delivery and performance by Parent or the Company of this Agreement or the execution, delivery and performance by Parent of any Parent Share Warrants, or (ii) the consummation by Parent or the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in each case except as expressly contemplated thereby.

(c)Current Effect. Other than pursuant to the express terms of the Merger Agreement, as of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, neither Parent nor the Company has granted any license or sublicense with respect to or entered into any other agreement to Transfer or otherwise encumber, any of the Products.

(d)No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by each of Parent and the Company, Parent’s and the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions thereof and, in the case of Parent, any Parent Share Warrants, and Parent’s and the Company’s consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, are not prohibited or limited by, and do not and will not conflict with or result in the breach of or a default under, any provision of the certificate of organization, operating agreement or other formation documents of Parent or the Company, any contract, agreement or instrument binding on or affecting Parent or the Company or any Laws. The offer, issuance and delivery of any Parent Shares pursuant to this Agreement and/or upon exercise of any Parent Share Warrants are (and will be) exempt from the registration and qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any state securities (Blue Sky) Laws.

(e)Authorization of Parent Shares. All Parent Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement or upon exercise of any Parent Share Warrants have been duly authorized and, when issued when issued and delivered as contemplated hereby or thereby, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to any preemptive rights. The issuance and delivery of any Parent Shares and/or Parent Share Warrants pursuant to this Agreement, or any Parent Shares upon exercise of any Parent Share Warrants, will not, (a) obligate Parent to offer to issue, or issue, Parent Shares or other securities to any Person (other than the Contingent Payment Holders) pursuant to any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, rights of participation or similar rights, or (b) result in any adjustment (automatic, at the election of any Person or otherwise) of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under, or any other anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to, any outstanding securities of Parent.

Exhibit E-17

7.General Provisions.

(a)Tax Treatment. For income tax purposes, any payment (whether made in cash, in Parent Share Warrants or in Parent Shares) made under this Agreement to an Initial Contingent Payment Holder shall be treated as additional consideration paid for the Company Shares to the maximum extent permitted by Law, and none of the Parties hereto nor their respective Affiliates shall take any contrary position except as otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of applicable state or local Law).

(b)Withholding. Each Initial Contingent Payment Holder shall deliver to Parent a completed and executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. No amount shall be deducted or withheld from any payments made hereunder to any Contingent Payment Holder that has provided a Form W-9.

(d)Members’ Representative. Neither the Members’ Representative nor its members, managers, directors, officers, contractors, agents or employees, including the Initial Contingent Payment Holders (collectively, the “Members’ Representative Group”) shall be liable in connection with this Agreement, except and only to the extent of the Members’ Representative Group’s bad faith or fraud. Parent and its Affiliates and Representatives may rely entirely and conclusively, without further inquiry, on its dealings with, and notices to and from, the Members’ Representative to satisfy any obligations it may have under this Agreement. The Person then serving as Members’ Representative may at any time provide written notice to Parent that it is designating a different Person as successor Member’s Representative, whereupon such different Person shall be the Members’ Representative for all purposes under this Agreement.

(e)Payment. All payments hereunder (whether in cash, in Parent Share Warrants or in Parent Shares) shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and, except to the extent payable in Parent Share Warrants or Parent Shares in Parent Shares as provided herein, shall be made in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds, using, in the case of the Initial Contingent Payment Holders, such wire information or address for such applicable Initial Contingent Payment Holder as is set forth on Schedule 2 hereto, or at such bank or place as the applicable Contingent Payment Holder shall from time to time designate in writing prior to the date such payment is due. Parent shall pay all and any fees, costs and expenses (administrative or otherwise) imposed by banks, clearing houses or any other financial institutions in connection with making any payments under this Agreement, and each Contingent Payment Holder shall pay all and any fees, costs and expenses (administrative or otherwise) imposed on such Contingent Payment Holder by banks, clearing houses or any other financial institutions engaged by such Contingent Payment Holder in connection with receiving such Contingent Payment Holder’s payments under this Agreement.

(f)Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Section 4 of this Agreement (and subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in this Agreement), neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by Parent without the prior written consent of the Contingent Payment Holders; provided that no such consent shall be required in connection with an assignment of this Agreement to a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent; provided that no such assignment shall release Parent from, and Parent shall remain responsible for all of, its obligations under this Agreement. Each Contingent Payment Holder shall have the right to assign this Agreement or its right to receive Net Sales Payments, in each case, in whole or in part, upon written notice to, but without the consent of, Parent, the Members’ Representative or any other Person.

Exhibit E-19

(g)Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(h)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic image scan transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(i)Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Exhibits or Schedules hereto and thereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

(j)Independent Nature of Contingent Payment Holders. The obligations of each Contingent Payment Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Contingent Payment Holder, and no Contingent Payment Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Contingent Payment Holder under this Agreement. The obligations of each Contingent Payment Holder under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection therewith are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Contingent Payment Holder, and no Contingent Payment Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Contingent Payment Holder under this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection therewith. Each Contingent Payment Holder shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection therewith. The decision of each Contingent Payment Holder to acquire rights under this Agreement and any other agreement entered into in connection therewith (including rights to received Milestone Payments and Net Sales Payments) has been made by such Contingent Payment Holder independently of any other Contingent Payment Holder and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that may have been made or given by any other Contingent Payment Holder or by any agent, attorney, advisor, representative or employee of any other Contingent Payment Holder, and no Contingent Payment Holder nor any of its agents, attorneys, advisors, representatives or employees shall have any liability to any other Contingent Payment Holder (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection therewith, and no action taken by any Contingent Payment Holder pursuant hereto or thereto (including a Contingent Payment Holder’s acquisition of rights hereunder or thereunder), shall be deemed to constitute the Contingent Payment Holders as, and each of the Contingent Payment Holders acknowledges and agrees that the Contingent Payment Holders do not thereby constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Contingent Payment Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and neither Parent nor its Affiliates shall assert any contrary position.

Exhibit E-20

(k)Amendment; Extension; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent and the Members’ Representative. Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver with respect to this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party (which, in the case of an extension or waiver of any obligation of Parent following the Closing, shall be the Members’ Representative). The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such right. In the event of any proposed amendment or modification of this Agreement, Parent shall provide the Administrator (as defined in the Melinta Therapeutics, LLC Equity Value Recognition Plan dated as of [____]) with notice of all terms of such amendment or modification.

(l)Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. All Exhibits and Schedules annexed hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. Any Exhibit or any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto but not otherwise defined therein shall have the meaning as defined in this Agreement. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning as the word “shall”. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. Whenever the word “or” is used in this Agreement, it shall not be deemed exclusive. All references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to the lawful currency of the U.S. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any contract, instrument or other document or any Law herein shall be construed as referring to such contract, instrument or other document or Law as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “hereby”, “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof and (d) all references herein to Sections and Exhibits shall be construed to refer to Sections of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(m)Cooperation. The Parties agree to provide reasonable cooperation with each other and to execute and deliver such further documents, certificates, agreements and instruments and to take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the other parties to evidence or effect the transactions contemplated by, and to carry out the intent and purposes of, this Agreement.

Exhibit E-21

(n)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, and all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved under, the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws of any jurisdiction.

(o)Cumulative Remedies. Upon the breach by Parent of any representation, warranty, covenant or term of this Agreement, the Contingent Payment Holders shall have all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement, under Law or in equity to which they are entitled, including as provided in Section 7(p)(i). Without limiting the foregoing, in the event the Members’ Representative or any Contingent Payment Holder reasonably disputes the occurrence of any Milestone, any amount of Net Sales or Parent’s use of Commercially Reasonable Efforts with respect to any Product, such may pursue available remedies in accordance herewith.

(p)Specific Enforcement; Jurisdiction.

(i)The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court referred to in clause (ii) of this Section 7, without proof of damages or otherwise (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond or other security in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of this Agreement and without such right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement.

(ii)Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the State of Delaware, for the purpose of any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of Parent or any Contingent Payment Holder in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims with respect to such proceeding may be heard and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, any other court of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware. Each of the Parties (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery, any other court of the State of Delaware and any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in the event any proceeding arises out of this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) irrevocably consents to the service of process in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property, by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 7(c) (provided that nothing in this Section 7(p)(ii) shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law) and (iv) agrees that it will not bring any proceeding relating to this Agreement in any court other than the Delaware Court of Chancery (or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall be unavailable, any other court of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware). The Parties agree that a final trial court judgment in any such proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law; provided that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.

3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with any Registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a. The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the SEC as soon as practicable after such registration obligation arises hereunder (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline), such Registration Statements with respect to the Registrable Securities as provided in Section 2(a), and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective no later than the applicable Registration Deadline, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement current and effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times after its effective date until the date on which all of the securities included in such Registration Statement no longer constitute Registrable Securities (the “Registration Period”), which Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and Prospectuses contained therein or related thereto), except for information provided in writing by a Holder pursuant to Section 4(a), shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. In the event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of any Registrable Securities hereunder (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without in any way affecting the Company’s obligation to Register the resale of the Registrable Securities on such other form as is available, as provided in Section 2(a)), (i) the Company shall undertake to file, within twenty (20) days of such time as such form is available for such Registration, a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement then in effect, or otherwise file a Registration Statement on Form S-3, registering such Registrable Securities on Form S-3; provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement (or post-effective amendment) on Form S-3 covering such Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC, and (ii) the Company shall provide that any Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed hereunder shall incorporate documents by reference (including by way of forward incorporation by reference) to the maximum extent possible. If the Company is a “well-known seasoned issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) at the time the Company is requested or required hereunder to file a Registration Statement or amendment to a Registration Statement hereunder (including pursuant to Section 3(b)), the Company shall use its best efforts to file the Registration Statement or amendment as an “automatic shelf registration statement” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act).

Exhibit F-5

b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection with each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep each Registration Statement (or, as applicable, another Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities) current and effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during the Registration Period, shall comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the event that on any Trading Day (as defined below) (the “Registration Trigger Date”) the number of shares available under the Registration Statements filed pursuant to this Agreement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, including all of the Contingent Warrant Shares and Merger Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of Parent Share Warrants and Closing Share Warrants (in each case, assuming the exercise thereof for cash, and without giving effect to any limitations on the exercise thereof), the Company shall amend the Registration Statements, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover the total number of Registrable Securities so issued or issuable (assuming the exercise of the Parent Share Warrants and Closing Share Warrants for cash, and without giving effect to any limitations on the exercise thereof) as of the Registration Trigger Date as soon as practicable, but in any event within twenty (20) days after the Registration Trigger Date. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in any event the Company shall cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective within sixty (60) days of the Registration Trigger Date (or, if earlier, five (5) Trading Days after the Company is first notified by the SEC that such Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comment) or as promptly as practicable in the event the Company is required to increase its authorized shares.

c. The Company shall furnish to each Holder and Legal Counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, publicly filed with the SEC or received by the Company, one copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment thereto (other than the Company’s filings under the Exchange Act and other than any amendment or supplement to a Registration Statement that is substantially similar to the Company’s filings under the Exchange Act), each preliminary Prospectus and Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and, each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought or intends to seek confidential treatment or which contains or reflects any material non-public information with respect to the Company or its securities), and (ii) such number of copies of a Prospectus, including a preliminary Prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as a Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided that the Company may provide any such copies in electronic form only. The Company will promptly notify each of the Holders by electronic mail of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly respond to any and all comments received from the SEC with respect to any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, with a view towards causing each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto to become effective (to the extent required, by declaration or ordering of effectiveness, of such Registration Statement or amendment by the SEC) as soon as practicable, and, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days, following the resolution or clearance of all SEC comments or, if applicable, following notification by the SEC that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review, shall file a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement (to the extent required for such Registration Statement or amendment to become effective, by declaration or ordering of effectiveness, of such Registration Statement or amendment by the SEC) to a time and date not later than two (2) Business Days after the submission of such request. No later than one (1) Business Days after the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company shall file with the SEC the final Prospectus included in the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 424 (or successor thereto) under the Securities Act.

Exhibit F-6

d. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, in any jurisdiction where registration and/or qualification is required, the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders shall reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be reasonably necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; except that in no event shall the Company be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it would not, but for the requirements of this paragraph (d), be required to be so qualified, to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction, except where the Company is then already required to be so qualified, already subject to taxation or required to consent to general service of process, as applicable.

e. Subject to Section 11, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall (i) notify each Holder that holds Registrable Securities of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the Prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, subject to Section 3(r), (ii) shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and (iii) deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Holder as such Holder may reasonably request.

f. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order as promptly as reasonably practicable and to notify each Holder that holds Registrable Securities (and, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable.

g. The Company shall permit one outside legal counsel designated by the Holders (which shall be Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Attn: Mark D. Wood) or such other counsel as shall have been designated by the Required Holders) (“Legal Counsel”) to review such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (as well as all requests for acceleration or effectiveness thereof but excluding the Company’s filings under the Exchange Act and excluding any amendment or supplement to a Registration Statement that is substantially similar to the Company’s filings under the Exchange Act), a reasonable period of time prior to their filing with the SEC (not less than three (3) Business Days prior to such filing) and not file any documents in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be (i) required to file any document with the SEC which in the view of the Company or its counsel contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make any statement therein not misleading or (ii) prohibited from filing any document with the SEC which the Company or its counsel reasonably believes to be required by law to be so filed.

h. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning a Holder provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws or otherwise required in the context of any Registration Statement or offering of securities in which any Holder participates, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning any Holder is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Holder prior to making such disclosure, and allow such Holder, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

Exhibit F-7

i. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, and to arrange for at least two market makers to register with FINRA as such with respect to such Registrable Securities.

j. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the initial Registration Statement.

k. The Company shall cooperate with each Holder that holds Registrable Securities being offered to facilitate the timely (i) preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such Registration Statement, and enable such certificates to be registered in such names and in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, or (ii) crediting of the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement to the applicable account (or accounts) with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian (DWAC) system, in any such case as such Holder may reasonably request.

l. At the reasonable request of a Holder, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any Prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement, in each case as promptly as is reasonably practicable.

m. The Company shall not, and shall not agree to, allow the holders of any Common Stock or other securities of the Company to include any of their securities (other than Registrable Securities) in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of the Required Holders. In addition, the Company shall not include any securities for its own account or the account of others in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or any amendment or supplement thereto filed pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of the Required Holders.

n. The Company shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws related to a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities and all applicable rules and regulations of governmental authorities in connection therewith (including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC).

o. If required by the FINRA Corporate Financing Department, the Company shall promptly effect a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 (or successor thereto) with respect to the public offering contemplated by resales of securities under the Registration Statement (an “Issuer Filing”), and pay the filing fee required by such Issuer Filing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to pursue the Issuer Filing until FINRA issues a letter confirming that it does not object to the terms of the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement.

Exhibit F-8

p. If at any time the SEC advises the Company in writing that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to persuade the SEC that the offering contemplated by a Registration Statement is a bona fide secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Holders is an “underwriter.” The Holders shall have the right to participate or have one legal counsel on behalf of all Holders participate in any meetings or discussions with the SEC regarding the SEC’s position and to comment or have their respective counsel comment on any written submission made to the SEC with respect thereto. In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 3(p), the SEC refuses to alter its position, the Company shall remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities as the SEC requires in writing be removed therefrom. Any such cut-back imposed by the SEC as contemplated by this Section 3(p) shall be imposed on such Registrable Securities as the Required Holders may elect, on a pro rata basis (based upon the applicable type of Registrable Securities held by each of the Holders), except to the extent otherwise required by the SEC.

q. Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all other reasonable actions arising out of its obligations under this Agreement and necessary to facilitate the disposition by the Holders of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

r. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3(e), the Company may postpone effecting a Registration with respect to any Registration Statements that may be required pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) or Section 3(b) or, at any time after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company may suspend the use of any prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement if the Company determines, based on the advice of counsel, that it would otherwise be required to disclose material non-public information concerning the Company, the disclosure of which (i) is not otherwise required (based on the advice of counsel) and which the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving in confidence and (ii) at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company and its counsel, in the best interests of the Company (the period of such suspension, a “Grace Period”); provided, that the Company shall (i) promptly notify the Holders in writing of the existence of material non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each notice the Company shall not disclose the content of such material non-public information to any Holder unless otherwise requested in writing by such Holder) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) as soon as such date may be determined, promptly notify the Holders in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided, further, that (A) no Grace Period shall exceed forty-five (45) consecutive days, (B) during any three hundred sixty-five (365) day period, such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of ninety (90) days, and (C) the first day of any Grace Period must be at least forty-five (45) days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each Grace Period that satisfies all of the requirements of this Section 3(r) being referred to as an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Holders receive the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Holders receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 3(e) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(e) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material non-public information is no longer applicable.

Exhibit F-9

s. The Company shall not grant any Person any registration rights with respect to shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company other than registration rights that will not adversely affect the rights of the Holders hereunder (including by limiting in any way the number of Registrable Securities that could be included in any Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415) and shall not otherwise enter into any agreement that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders hereunder; provided that the grant of registration rights to other current or future securityholders shall not in and of itself be deemed to adversely affect the rights of the Holders.

t. At all times during the Registration Period, (a) the Common Stock shall be eligible for clearing through DTC, through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian (DWAC) system; (b) the Company shall be eligible and participating in the Direct Registration System (DRS) of DTC with respect to the Common Stock; (c) the transfer agent for the Common Stock shall be a participant in, and the Common Stock shall be eligible for transfer pursuant to, DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (or successor thereto); and (d) the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Common Stock to not at any time be subject to any DTC “chill,” “freeze” or similar restriction with respect to any DTC services, including the clearing of shares of Common Stock through DTC, and, in the event the Common Stock becomes subject to any DTC “chill,” “freeze” or similar restriction with respect to any DTC services, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such “chill,” “freeze” or similar restriction to be removed at the earliest possible time.

4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE HOLDERS.

a. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the Registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the Registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Holder of the information the Company requires from such Holder. Any such information shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

b. Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or Section 3(f), such Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or Section 3(f); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit or require the Holder to discontinue the settlement of any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Holder has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Holder’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or 3(f).

The Company shall also reimburse the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of Legal Counsel in the aggregate amount up to $35,000 per Registration in connection with Registrations pursuant to Section 2 or 3 of this Agreement.

7. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

a. The Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) each Holder and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees and agents of each Holder, and each Person who controls any Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, if any, (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, “Claims”) to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any filing made under state securities laws as required hereby, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable and documented legal fees and other reasonable and documented expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 7(a) shall not apply to a Claim by any Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation to the extent that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or to any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by any of the Holders pursuant to Section 10.

Exhibit F-11

b. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 7, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be;

provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable and documented fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the opinion of counsel for such Indemnified Person, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel (plus one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, if necessary) for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by the Holders. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced by such failure in its ability to defend such action, and shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person otherwise than pursuant to this Section 7. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be or has been sought hereunder (whether or not any such Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Persons of a full release from all liability with respect to such Claim or which includes any admission as to fault, culpability or failure to act on the part of any Indemnified Person. The indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as any expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.

c. Each Holder will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees and agents of the Company, if any (each, a “Company Indemnified Person”), against any Claims to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities, which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, of false or misleading information about such Holder, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(c) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and provided, further, however, that a Holder shall be liable under this Section 7(c) for only that amount of a Claim as does not exceed the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

Exhibit F-12

d. Promptly after receipt by a Company Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Company Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Holder under this Section 7, deliver to such Holder a written notice of the commencement thereof, and such Holder shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent such Holder so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to such Holder and such Company Indemnified Person. No Holder shall, without the prior written consent of the Company, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be or has been sought by any Company Indemnified Person hereunder (whether or not any such Company Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Company Indemnified Persons of a full release from all liability with respect to such Claim or which includes any admission as to fault, culpability or failure to act on the part of any Company Indemnified Person.

8. CONTRIBUTION. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(c) (as applicable) is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) as a result of the Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) and the indemnifying party (provided that the relative fault of any Company Indemnified Person shall be deemed to include the fault of all other Company Indemnified Persons), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a Holder be greater in amount than the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement (net of the aggregate amount of any damages or other amounts such Holder has otherwise been required to pay (pursuant to Section 7(c) or otherwise) by reason of such Holder’s untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission).

9. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holders to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to, during the period when there are Registrable Securities outstanding (or deemed hereunder to be outstanding):

a. make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

Exhibit F-13

b. file with the SEC in a timely manner (without giving effect to any extensions pursuant to Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

c. remain continuously subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act for a period of at least one year following the date of this Agreement;

d. so long as any of the Holders owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, furnish to such Holder (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act as required for applicable provisions of Rule 144 and (ii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit such Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

10. LEGEND REMOVAL.

a. The Registrable Securities held by any Holder (and any certificates or electronic book entries evidencing the Registrable Securities) shall not contain or be subject to (and such Holder shall be entitled to removal of) any legend (or stop transfer or similar instruction) restricting the transfer thereof (including any legend pertaining to restrictions on transfer under Applicable Securities Laws) if : (i) (A) a Registration Statement covering the sale or resale of such securities is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) such Holder provides customary paperwork to the effect that it has sold, or is selling substantially contemporaneously with the delivery of such paperwork, such securities pursuant to such a Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (C) such securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act as set forth in customary, non-affiliate certifications provided by such Holder, or (D) at any time on or after the date hereof such Holder certifies that it is an “affiliate” (within the meaning of such term under Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company (a “Rule 144 Affiliate”), and has not been a Rule 144 Affiliate for the preceding three (3) months, and that such Holder’s holding period for purposes of Rule 144 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof) is at least six (6) months, and if such holding period is less than one (1) year, the current public information requirement of Rule 144(b)(1) is then met, or (E) legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC) as determined in good faith by counsel to the Company and (ii) in each case, such Registrable Securities are not subject to the Lock-Up, to the extent applicable (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) (with a copy to each Holder), promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) after such time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions has been satisfied with respect to any Registrable Securities (which in the case of Registrable Securities that are not subject to the Lock-Up, shall be the Registration Effective Date), if the Transfer Agent requires such an opinion to effect the issuance of such Registrable Securities, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder.

b. The Company agrees that at such time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions is met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 10 in respect of any Registrable Securities, which in the case of Registrable Securities that are not subject to the Lock-Up shall include any time following the Registration Effective Date,, it will, no later than the earlier of (x) (1) Trading Day and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the delivery by a Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of the Registrable Securities issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder or its designee the Registrable Securities free from all restrictive and other legends (or similar notations) by crediting the account of such Holder’s prime broker with DTC, through its DWAC system.

Exhibit F-14

11. LOCK-UP.

a. Each Holder agrees that during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending at 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on the one hundred twentieth (120^th) day following the date hereof (the “Lock-Up Period”), without the prior written approval of the Company, such Holder shall not lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly (“Transfer”), any Restricted Shares; provided, that:

(i) on the date that is sixty (60) days following the Closing (the “First Lock-Up Release Date”), the Merger Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Tranche 1 Closing Share Warrants shall be released from the Lock-Up, shall cease to be “Restricted Shares” and shall become freely tradeable (subject only to restrictions on transfer under Federal securities laws described in Section 10), and

(ii) on the date that is one hundred and twenty (120) days following the Closing (the “Second Lock-Up Release Date” and, together with the First Lock-Up Release Date, the “Lock-Up Release Dates”), Merger Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Tranche 2 Closing Share Warrants shall be released from the Lock-Up and shall become freely tradeable (subject only to restrictions on transfer under Federal securities laws described in Section 10), and the Lock-Up shall terminate and be of no further force or effect (and none of the Registrable Securities shall be deemed Restricted Shares).

b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder shall at all times be permitted to Transfer the Restricted Shares (or any portion thereof): (i) to its affiliates, (ii) to any investment fund or other entity controlling, controlled by, managing or managed by or under common control with such Significant Company Shareholder or its Affiliates, (iii) to any direct or indirect equityholders or limited partners of a Significant Company Shareholder, (iv) to any family member or any Affiliate of any family member of a Holder, (v) to a charitable organization through a charitable distribution, and (vi) pursuant to a bona fide take-over bid, tender offer or similar transaction made to all holders of Common Stock, including without limitation, a merger, arrangement or amalgamation, involving a change of control of the Company and provided that in the event the take-over, tender offer or acquisition transaction is not completed, such Restricted Shares shall remain subject to the Lock-Up (unless released from the Lock-Up to the extent provided in Section 11(a)); provided that in the case of each of (i) through (v), such Transfer is without consideration and the applicable transferee remains subject to the Lock-Up.

Exhibit F-15

c. The Restricted Shares shall be subject to a restrictive legend (the “Lock-Up Legend”) in substantially the following form; provided that such legend shall be removed as and when provided in Section 10; and provided, further, that upon any exercise of a Closing Share Warrant a time when any Unrestricted Condition is satisfied with respect thereto, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise shall be issued free of any restrictive legend:

THE OFFER AND SALE OF THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER SECTION 4(a)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[a](1) AND A HALF SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES FOR WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD, AS SET FORTH IN A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDERS OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

12. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by each Holder to any transferee of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities or all or any portion of such Holder’s rights under the CPA if: (i) such Holder agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, and (iii) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated in clause (ii) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein as applicable to a Holder. In the event that the Company receives written notice from a Holder that it has transferred all or any portion of its Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 12, the Company, within ten (10) days, shall file any amendments or supplements necessary to keep a Registration Statement current, effective and available for the resale of all of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, except after obtaining the prior written consent of the Required Holders.

Exhibit F-16

13. MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION.

a. From and after the date hereof, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, representatives and agents to not, provide any Holder or any Holder’s Affiliates, representatives or agents, with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company, any of its Affiliates or any other Person (“MNPI”) without the express prior written consent of such Holder. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither any Holder nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any duty of trust or confidence with respect to, or duty not to trade on the basis of, any MNPI (i) provided by, or on behalf of, the Company, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or representatives or (ii) otherwise possessed (or continued to be possessed) by any Holder (or any Affiliate, agent or representative thereof) as a result of any breach or violation of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement requiring the Company to publicly disclose information in a press release, filing with the SEC or otherwise (collectively, the “Disclosure Covenants”).

b. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to any Holder or any Holder’s Affiliates, attorneys, agents or representatives contains MNPI, the Company shall, prior to the delivery of such notice or communication, (i) so indicate to such Holder, and such indication shall provide such Holder the means to refuse to receive such notice or communication, and in the absence of any such indication, such Holder, the other holders of the Registrable Securities and their respective Affiliates, agents and representatives shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice or communication do not constitute MNPI and (ii) provide such notice or communication to counsel to such Holder (which shall be Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Attn: Mark D. Wood) or such other counsel as shall have been designated in writing by such Holder). In the event that the Company either (A) fails to indicate that a notice or communication to a Holder contains MNPI or otherwise provides any Holder with MNPI without such Holder’s prior written consent or (B) provides such notice or communication to any Holder notwithstanding any such Holder’s refusal in writing to receive such notice or communication, such Holder shall have the right to make a public disclosure in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise of the applicable MNPI without the prior approval by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, attorneys, representatives or agents, and no Holder (nor any of its Affiliates, agents or representatives) shall have any liability to the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, stockholders, attorneys, representatives or agents for any such disclosure.

c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Company reasonably and in good faith determines that it is necessary to disclose MNPI to any Holder for purposes relating to this Agreement or the Merger Agreement(a “Necessary Disclosure”), the Company shall inform counsel to such Holder (which shall be Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP (Attn: Mark D. Wood) or such other counsel as shall have been designated in writing by such Holder) of such determination without disclosing the applicable MNPI, and the Company and such counsel on behalf of such Holder shall endeavor to agree upon a process for making such Necessary Disclosure to the applicable Holder or its representatives that is mutually acceptable to such Holder and the Company (an “Agreed Disclosure Process”). Thereafter, the Company shall be permitted to make such Necessary Disclosure (only) in accordance with the Agreed Disclosure Process. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders and their Affiliates will rely upon the foregoing representations, warranties and agreements and the other disclosure obligations of the Company hereunder in effecting transactions in Common Stock and other securities of the Company and other Persons.

Exhibit F-17

14. MISCELLANEOUS.

a. A Person is deemed to hold, and be a holder of, shares of Common Stock or other Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns of record or beneficially through a “street name” holder such shares of Common Stock or other Registrable Securities (or the Closing Share Warrants or Parent Share Warrants upon exercise of which such Registrable Securities are directly or indirectly issuable, without giving effect to any limitation on exercise thereof) or may become entitled to under the CPA, and solely for purposes hereof, Registrable Securities shall be deemed outstanding to the extent they are or may become directly or indirectly issuable under the CPA or upon exercise of any Closing Share Warrants or Parent Share Warrants (in each case, without giving effect to any limitation on exercise thereof), assuming the maximum amount of Milestone Payments become payable thereunder and the Company elects to satisfy all of its obligations to make such payments through the issuance and delivery of Contingent Payment Shares or Parent Warrant Shares. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities (or Closing Share Warrants or Parent Share Warrants).

b. Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms hereof shall be delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by electronic mail and shall be effective upon receipt, in each case addressed to a party. The addresses for such communications shall be:

If to the Company:

Email: [***]

If to a Holder, to the address set forth in such Holder’s signature page to this Agreement.

The Company shall provide notice to each Holder, and each Holder shall provide notice to the Company, of any change in such party’s address.

c. Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

Exhibit F-18

d. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved under, the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof that would result in the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, solely if the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, any other court of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the state of Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury. If any party commences an action or proceeding to enforce any provision of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the adverse parties to such action for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

e. This Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the CPA, the Closing Share Warrants, the Parent Share Warrants and the instruments referenced herein and therein (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”), constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including all schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto) supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

f. Subject to the requirements of Section 11 hereof, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties hereto, and the provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person and Company Indemnified Person (as applicable).

g. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with written consent of the Company and the Required Holders. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11 shall be binding upon each of the Holders and the Company.

h. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

Exhibit F-19

i. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed and delivered in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto is delivered by facsimile transmission, by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file or by other electronic means, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile, “.pdf” or other electronic signature page were an original thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine, e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file or other electronic means to deliver a signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine, e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file or other electronic means as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

j. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the non-breaching part(y)(ies) hereto by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the remedy at law for breach of its obligations hereunder will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by any party hereto of any of the provisions hereunder, that the non-breaching party shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies in law or in equity, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

k. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party.

l. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

m. In the event a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Registrable Securities, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the number of Registrable Securities included in a Registration Statement for such transferor.

n. There shall be no oral modifications or amendments to this Agreement. This Agreement may be modified or amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Required Holders, and any amendment or modification so adopted shall be binding upon all of the Holders.

Exhibit F-20

o. The obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder, and no provision of this Agreement (or any other Transaction Document) is intended to confer any obligations on any Holder vis-à-vis any other Holder. Nothing contained herein (or in any Transaction Document), and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto (or thereto), shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated herein (or therein).

p. Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural, and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iii) the use of the word “include,” “includes” and “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation, and (iv) the word “or” is not exclusive (i.e., “or” shall mean “and/or”).

q. The provisions of this Agreement that refer to a number of shares of Common Stock or a number of Registrable Securities shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock split or other subdivision of outstanding Common Stock, combination of outstanding Common Stock (including by reverse stock split), payment of a stock dividend in shares of Common Stock, , or other similar transaction of such character that outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock.

PRE-FUNDED WARRANT
TO PURCHASE
SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
OF

CORMEDIX, INC.

Original Issue Date: [___] No. [__]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, CorMedix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), hereby certifies that [___________] or any transferee, assignee or other subsequent holder hereof (the “Holder”) is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, at the Exercise Price per share, the Warrant Share Number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain [Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among the Company, Coriander BidCo, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Melinta Therapeutics, LLC and Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., solely in its capacity as the Members’ Representative, dated as of [●], 2025 (together with all exhibits and schedules thereto and as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Merger Agreement”)] / [Contingent Payment Agreement, dated as of [●], 2025 (together with all exhibits and schedules thereto and as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Contingent Payment Agreement”), by and among Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., Deerfield Private Design Fund III, L.P., the Company, Melinta Therapeutics, LLC and Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., solely in its capacity as representative]. The Common Shares (as defined below) issuable hereunder (the “Warrant Shares”) are entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below). Capitalized terms used in this Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 8 hereof or, if not specified in Section 8 hereof, the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the [Merger Agreement]/[Contingent Payment Agreement].

¹ NTD: Legend to be included in the form of Closing Share Warrant. The form of Parent Share Warrant to be included in the Contingent Payment Agreement will not bear a restrictive legend.

Exhibit M-1

1. Term. The right to subscribe for and purchase Warrant Shares represented hereby commences on the Original Issue Date and shall expire at such time as this Warrant shall have been exercised in full (such period being the “Term”).

2. Exercise Price; Method of Exercise; Payment; Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Exercise Price. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.001 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company on or prior to the Original Issue Date by virtue of its issuance pursuant to the [Merger Agreement] / [Contingent Payment Agreement] and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever. The remaining unpaid exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.001, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

(b) Exercise of Warrant. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time during the Term by delivering to the Company (by electronic mail or otherwise in accordance with Section 11) written notice of such exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, an “Exercise Form”) and the applicable Exercise Price, which may be satisfied by a Cash Exercise or a Cashless Exercise (as each is defined below), for each Warrant Share as to which this Warrant is being exercised. The “Exercise Date” in respect of each exercise of this Warrant shall be defined as the date that the Exercise Form in respect of such exercise is delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) Cash Exercise. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in respect of any Warrant Share(s) in cash (a “Cash Exercise”). In the case of a Cash Exercise, within one (1) Trading Day (or, if less, the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period on the Exercise Date) following the Exercise Date as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Exercise Form by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank.

(d) Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of paying the Exercise Price in respect of any Warrant Share(s) in cash, the Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) on a cashless basis by making appropriate notation on the applicable Exercise Form (provided, that in the absence of any indication as to whether an Exercise Form relates to a cash exercise or a Cashless Exercise, the exercise pursuant to such Exercise Form shall be deemed to be Cashless Exercise), in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Where:	X	= the number of the Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
	Y	= the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is exercised.
	A	= the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date.
	B	= the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

Exhibit M-2

For purposes of this Section 2(c), the “fair market value” of one share of Common Stock on the date of determination shall mean:

(i) if the Market Price can be calculated in accordance with the definitions of “Market Price” and “Volume Weighted Average Price,” the Market Price per share of Common Stock as of the Exercise Date; and

(ii) if the Market Price cannot be calculated in accordance with the definitions of “Market Price” and “Volume Weighted Average Price,” the fair market value of a share of Common Stock shall be such fair market value as determined in good faith by the Company in reliance on an opinion of a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company for this purpose; provided that the Holder shall have a right to receive from the Company the calculations performed to arrive at such fair market value and a copy of the opinion of such investment banking firm and any report prepared by such investment banking firm and delivered to the Company in connection therewith.

The date of determination for purposes of this Section 2(c) shall be the date the Exercise Form is delivered by the Holder to the Company.

(e) Issuance of Warrant Shares and New Warrant. In the event of any exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be delivered by the Company, (i) in the case of an exercise at a time when any of the Unrestricted Conditions is met as of the Exercise Date in respect of such Warrant Shares, by causing the Company’s designated transfer agent (“Transfer Agent”) to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system, as specified in the relevant Exercise Form, no later than the later of (x) one (1) Trading Day (or, if less, the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period) after the relevant Exercise Date and, (y) in the case of a Cash Exercise, one (1) Trading Day after the date the applicable aggregate Exercise Price is received by the Company, provided that a delay in delivering the Warrant Shares in accordance with this clause (i) to the extent it is caused solely by a failure by the Holder or its designee to accept such DWAC transmission shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 2(d), or (ii) in the case of an exercise at a time when the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise are required to bear a restrictive legend pursuant to Section 2(f)(ii) because none of the Unrestricted Conditions is met in respect thereof, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Form, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise, within five (5) Trading Days after the relevant Exercise Date. Upon the exercise of this Warrant or any part hereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering an opinion of counsel, if applicable, as shall be necessary to enable the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder in accordance with this Section 2(d) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the Transfer Agent in respect of the Warrant Shares and that the Warrant Shares will not contain any legend or be subject to any stop transfer or similar instruction if any of the Unrestricted Conditions is met in respect thereof. Upon the delivery of an Exercise Form in accordance with Section 2(a), the Holder shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s or its designee’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. The Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company, except as provided in Section 2(e) in connection with a transfer of this Warrant. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Form with respect to a partial exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the remaining number of Warrant Shares. The Holder and any assignee of the Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledges and agrees that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the Warrant Share Number (and, therefore, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder) at any given time may be less than the amount stated herein.

Exhibit M-3

(f) Transferability of Warrant. Subject to Section 2(f)(iii), [following the Lock-Up Release Date]², this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder without charge to the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices with a properly completed and duly executed Assignment Form in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Within three (3) Trading Days of such surrender and delivery (the “Transfer Delivery Period”), the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly thereafter be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares immediately upon such assignment without having a new Warrant issued. The Holder shall pay any Transfer Taxes (as such term is defined in Section 5(b) below) imposed in connection with such transfer or assignment (if any).

(g) Restrictive Legend.

(i) The Holder understands that[, in addition to any legend required or permitted under the Registration Rights Agreement prior to the Lock-Up Release Date,] until such time as [this Warrant and]³ the Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, [this Warrant and] the Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order consistent therewith may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities) (the “Securities Law Legend”):

“THE OFFER AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER SECTION 4(a)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[(a)](1) AND A HALF SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

² NTD: To be included in Closing Share Warrants subject to the Lock-Up (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).

³ NTD: References to “this Warrant” to be included in the Closing Share Warrant. References to “this Warrant” will not be included in the Parent Share Warrant.

Exhibit M-4

(ii) This Warrant and Warrant Shares (and any certificates or electronic book entries evidencing the Warrant Shares) shall not contain or be subject to (and Holder shall be entitled to removal of) any legend (or stop transfer or similar instruction) restricting the transfer thereof (including the Securities Law Legend): if [(i)] (A) a registration statement (including a Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the sale or resale of such securities is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) the Holder provides customary certifications to the effect that it has sold, or is selling substantially contemporaneously with the delivery of such certifications, such securities pursuant to such a registration statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (C) such securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act as set forth in customary, non-affiliate certifications provided by the Holder, or (D) at any time on or after the date hereof that the Holder certifies that it is not a Rule 144 Affiliate and that the Holder’s holding period for purposes of Rule 144 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof) of at least six (6) months, and if such holding period is less than one (1) year, the current public information requirement of Rule 144(b)(1) is then met, or (E) such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC) as determined in good faith by counsel to the Company or as set forth in a legal opinion delivered by Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP or other nationally recognized counsel to the Holder; [and (ii) in each case, the Lock-Up Release Date shall have occurred]⁴ (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent, promptly after any of the Unrestricted Conditions has been satisfied, if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the issuance of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If any of the Unrestricted Conditions is met at the time of issuance of the Warrant Shares then such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends and stop-transfer instructions. The Company agrees that following any of the Unrestricted Conditions is met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 2(f), it will, no later than the earlier of (x) one (1) Trading Day and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of the Warrant Shares issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder or its designee the Warrant Shares free from all restrictive and other legends (or similar notations) by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with DTC, through its DWAC system. The Company acknowledges and agrees that, if the Holder delivers a certification that it is not an “affiliate” of the Company (as such term is used under Rule 144 under the Securities Act) and has not been an Affiliate for a period of three (3) months, then from and after the delivery thereof, the Holder shall be deemed to have certified that it is not an “affiliate” of the Company (as such term is used under Rule 144 under the Securities Act) upon each delivery of an Exercise Form, unless the Holder otherwise advises the Company in writing. For purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that (X) this Warrant shall be deemed to have been acquired, and the holding period thereof shall be deemed to have commenced, on [_____]⁵ [(i.e., the date of the Contingent Payment Agreement pursuant to which this Warrant was issued)]⁶, and (Y) the Warrant Shares issuable upon any exercise of this Warrant pursuant to a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired, and the holding period thereof shall be deemed to have commenced, on such date. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees that the removal of any restrictive legends from any securities as set forth in this Section 2(f)(ii) is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the Holder will sell such securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will be sold while such registration statement is effective and available for resales of such securities, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.

⁴ NTD: Clause (ii) will only be included in Closing Share Warrants subject to the Lock-Up (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).

⁵ NTD: Insert the Closing Date under the Merger Agreement.

⁶ NTD: Bracketed language to be included in the Parent Share Warrant (and not the Closing Share Warrant).

Exhibit M-5

(iii) The Holder covenants that it will not sell or otherwise transfer any Warrants or Warrant Shares except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration and prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

(h) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. If pursuant to an exercise of this Warrant the Holder would be entitled to a fractional Common Share, then either (i) the number of Common Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number of Common Shares or (ii) the Company will pay, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, a cash amount equal to the product of the related fraction and the Volume Weighted Average Price per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately before the related Exercise Date.

(i) Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and amount.

(j) No Rights of Stockholders. Except as otherwise provided herein, including in Section 4(b), the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or be otherwise deemed the holder of Common Shares or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose under this Agreement, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings.

Exhibit M-6

(k) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant (or issue any Warrant Shares thereupon), and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant or acquire Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(c) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise as contemplated by the applicable Exercise Form, the number of Common Shares then beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares beneficially owned by any “group” of which the Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) (the “Attribution Parties”), would exceed [4.9]⁷% of the total number of Common Shares issued (excluding treasury shares) (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the SEC, and the percentage beneficially owned by the Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as set forth in the Company’s most recent annual report filed with the SEC, or any report filed by the Company with the SEC subsequent thereto, in each case, unless the Company has confirmed to the Holder the number of Common Shares outstanding as provided in the next sentence (in which case the Holder may rely upon such confirmation); provided, that the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock for such purposes shall be determined after giving effect to the exercise or conversion of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, any other warrants and any convertible notes, by the Holder and its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days, confirm in writing to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. Each delivery of an Exercise Form by the Holder will constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the limitation set forth in this paragraph and determined that the issuance of the full number of Common Shares requested in such Exercise Form is permitted under this paragraph.

(l) Buy-in. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Holder under this Warrant, the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity, at the written election of the Holder made in the Holder’s sole discretion, if, on or after the last day of the Delivery Period in respect of such Exercise, the Holder or its brokerage firm purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder was entitled to receive upon such exercise (such purchased shares, “Buy-In Shares”), the Company shall (1) be obligated to promptly pay to the Holder (in addition to all other available remedies that the Holder may otherwise have), 100% of the amount by which (A) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for such Buy-In Shares exceeds (B) the net proceeds received by the Holder from the sale of a number of shares equal to up to the number of Warrant Shares such Holder was entitled to receive but had not received on or before the last day of such Delivery Period Date, and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of this Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (and refund the Exercise Price therefor, to the extent paid by Holder), or deliver to the Holder the number of Common Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver the Common Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof

⁷ NTD: Deerfield to confirm the level of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (i.e., 4.9% or 9.9%).

Exhibit M-7

(m) Void Exercise Form. If for any reason the Holder has not received all of the Warrant Shares (free of any restrictive legend, provided that any Unrestricted Condition is satisfied) prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after the expiration of the Delivery Period with respect to an exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Section 2(d), then the Holder, upon written notice to the Company by facsimile or electronic mail (a “Void Exercise Notice”), may void its Exercise Form with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant with respect to which Warrant Shares have not been delivered pursuant to the Holder’s Exercise Form.

3. Certain Representations and Agreements. The Company represents, covenants and agrees:

(a) This Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued.

(b) All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of, or otherwise pursuant to, this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such Warrant Shares are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any stockholder of the Company, and free from all taxes, liens and charges. As of the Original Issue Date, the Company has reserved from its authorized and unissued Common Shares, exclusively for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant, and from and after the Original Issue Date the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares solely for the purpose of effecting exercises of this Warrant, such number of Common Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant in full for cash (without giving effect to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation); and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Common Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of this Warrant in full, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Common Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders and/or any other relevant corporate body to amend the Company’s charter increasing the authorized share capital of the sufficiently high to meet the Company’s obligations under this Section 3(b).

(c) The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares are issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any securities exchange upon which shares of the Company’s capital stock may be listed at the time of such exercise.

(d) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to procure, subject to issuance or notice of issuance, the listing of any Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant on the principal stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded.

Exhibit M-8

4. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and Warrant Share Number shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided, that no single event shall cause an adjustment or distribution under more than one subsection of this Section 4 so as to result in duplication.

(a) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time (i) pay or make a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in Common Shares, (ii) split, subdivide or reclassify the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Share Number at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder immediately after such record date or effective date, as the case may be, shall be entitled to purchase the number of Common Shares which such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the Common Shares subject to this Warrant after such date had such Holder held a number of Common Shares equal to the Warrant Share Number immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. In the event of such adjustment, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be immediately adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the Warrant Share Number before the adjustment determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to such adjustment by (y) the new Warrant Share Number determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(b) Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(i)), the Holder, as the holder of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive, and shall be paid by the Company, any dividend paid or distribution of any kind made to the holders of Common Stock, other than a dividend or distribution resulting in an adjustment pursuant to Section 4(a), to the same extent as if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full in a Cash Exercise (without regard to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or any other limitations on exercise herein or elsewhere and without regard to whether or not a sufficient number of shares are authorized, reserved and available to effect any such exercise and issuance) and had held such Warrant Shares on the record date for such dividend or distribution (or, if there is no record date therefor, on the date of such dividend or distribution). Payments or distributions under this Section 4(b) shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to holders of the Common Stock.

Exhibit M-9

(c) Purchase Rights. If at any time on or after the Original Issue Date, the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property, in each case pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), and such grant, issuance or sale does not result in a dividend or distribution resulting in an adjustment pursuant to Section 4(a) or a distribution to the Holder pursuant to Section 4(b), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full in a cash exercise (without regard to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or any other limitations on exercise herein or elsewhere and without regard to whether or not a sufficient number of shares are authorized, reserved and available to effect any such exercise and issuance) and had held such Warrant Shares on the record date for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights. As used in this Section 9(c), (i) “Options” means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities and (ii) “Convertible Securities” mean any stock or securities (other than Options) directly or indirectly convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock.

(d) Organic Change.

(i) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding an Organic Change is consummated or otherwise occurs, then, upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to receive in lieu of (or in addition to, as the case may be) the Warrant Shares, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property of the Company or the Successor Entity, as the case may be, resulting from such Organic Change, which a Holder of the Warrant Share Number (at the time of such Organic Change and, for the avoidance of doubt, without regard to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or any other restriction or limitation on exercise and without regard to whether or not a sufficient number of shares are authorized, reserved and available to effect any such exercise and issuance) of Warrant Shares would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Organic Change if such Warrant Shares had been outstanding immediately prior to such Organic Change; and in any such case, if applicable, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder shall be appropriately adjusted (pursuant to a written agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder) so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to the Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant in exchange for any shares of stock or other securities or property pursuant to this paragraph. If holders of Common Shares are given any choice as to the kind and/or amount of stock and/or other securities or property (including cash) to be received in an Organic Change, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Organic Change.

(ii) The Company shall cause any acquiring, surviving or successor entity in an Organic Change in which the Company does not survive as the parent entity (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof pursuant to written agreements in form and substance approved by the Holder (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any such Organic Change in which there is a Successor Entity, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Organic Change, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein and therein.

Exhibit M-10

(e) Other Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of Section 4(a), 4(b), 4(c) or 4(d) or any other provision hereof that provides for an adjustment of Exercise Price, the Warrant Share Number, or the number and class of shares of capital stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, but not expressly provided for by any such provision occurs, then the Company shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price, the Warrant Share Number and/or number and class of shares of capital stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with such provisions; provided, that no such adjustment shall increase the Exercise Price or decrease the Warrant Share Number except as otherwise determined pursuant to the express provisions of Section 4(a).

(f) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a cent or to the nearest one-tenth (l/10th) of a share, as the case may be.

(g) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 4, the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and make available to the Holder a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price and Warrant Share Number that shall be in effect after such adjustment.

(h) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

(i) Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary, which may include obtaining regulatory, stock exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares (and any other securities, if applicable) that the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 4.

(b) HSR Submissions.  If the Holder determines in good faith that the exercise of this Warrant is subject to notification under the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “HSR Act”), each of the Company and the Holder agrees to (i) cooperate with the other party in the other party’s preparing and making such submission and any responses to inquiries of the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and/or Department of Justice (“DOJ”); and (ii) prepare and make any submission required to be filed by the Company or the Holder, as applicable, under the HSR Act and respond to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ in connection therewith. The Company shall pay, or reimburse the Holder for, the costs of any required filing fees for any submissions under the HSR Act. Where the Holder notifies the Company that, pursuant to this section, the Holder has determined that an HSR filing is required, the Company shall not issue Warrant Shares until the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act.

6. Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute between the Company and the Holder as to the determination of the Exercise Price, Market Price or Volume Weighted Average Price, the Company shall issue, or instruct the Transfer Agent to issue, as applicable, to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that is not disputed and shall transmit an explanation of the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the Holder via email within one (1) Business Day of receipt or deemed receipt of the Holder’s Exercise Form or other date of determination. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Exercise Price, Market Price or Volume Weighted Average Price within one (1) Business Day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being transmitted to the Holder, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) submit via email (A) the disputed determination of the Exercise Price, Market Price or Volume Weighted Average Price, as applicable, to an independent, reputable investment banking firm selected by the Company and subject to the approval of the Holder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), or (B) in the case of a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Volume Weighted Average Price, to an independent registered public accounting firm selected by the Company, subject to the approval of the Holder. The Company shall direct the investment bank or the accounting firm, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than two (2) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accounting firm’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent manifest error. Neither the Holder nor the Company shall have the right to dispute any determination pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6 unless such party notifies the other party of such dispute in writing no later than two (2) Business Days after the other party notifies the Holder or the Company, as applicable, in writing of such determination.

7. Frustration of Purpose. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any Common Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect and (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.

The parties acknowledge and agree that any party shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with its pursuit of an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Warrant and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, the Merger Agreement, each Ancillary Agreement, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).
