Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”), Sellers shall transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Acquisition Sub, and Acquisition Sub shall purchase and acquire from Sellers, all of Sellers’ right, title and interest in and to the Transferred Interests (the “Sale”).

2.2 Purchase Price; Allocation.

(a) In consideration for the Transferred Interests, Purchasers shall pay to Sellers an aggregate of (a) Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) in cash (the “Initial Purchase Price”) plus (b) the Warrant (collectively, the “Purchase Price”) at the Closing. The Initial Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.4 through Section 2.7.

(b) The Parties agree that:

(i) For U.S. federal Income Tax purposes, the sale of (A) the Transferred Interests in Alkermes Gainesville (which is a disregarded entity with respect to Eagle Holdings) shall be treated as a sale of the assets of Alkermes Gainesville and (B) the Transferred Interests in Newco (which is a disregarded entity with respect to APIL) shall be treated as a sale of the assets of Newco;

(ii) An amount of the Initial Purchase Price equal to the lesser of (A) the Appraised Value of Alkermes Gainesville (as determined pursuant to Section 2.2(d)) less any liabilities of Alkermes Gainesville that are required to be treated as part of the purchase price of the assets of Alkermes Gainesville for U.S. federal Income Tax purposes and (B) the Initial Purchase Price shall be allocated to, and paid to Eagle Holdings in full payment for the Transferred Interests in Alkermes Gainesville; and

(iii) The balance of the Initial Purchase Price plus the Warrant shall be allocated to and paid to APIL in full payment for the Transferred Interests in Newco and the Earn-Out Consideration shall be allocated to and paid to APIL in full payment of the amounts due under the terms of the IP License Agreement.

(d) Eagle Holdings shall retain Duff & Phelps Corporation which shall conduct an appraisal and determine the gross fair market value of the assets of Alkermes Gainesville (the “Appraised Value”). Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Eagle Holdings shall deliver to Purchasers a schedule setting forth the Appraised Value and the allocation of the Initial Purchase Price allocable to the Transferred Interests in Alkermes Gainesville (as determined pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(ii)) (plus any liabilities of Alkermes Gainesville that are required to be treated as part of the purchase price of the assets of Alkermes Gainesville for U.S. federal Income Tax purposes) among the asset classes of Alkermes Gainesville (the “Allocation Schedule”), with the asset classes being those set forth in Treas. Reg. Sec. 1.338-6. The Allocation Schedule will not allocate to various assets within the asset class. The Appraised Value and Allocation Schedule shall be subject to such appropriate adjustments, if any, by the appraisers and Eagle Holdings upon the determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment. The Allocation Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. The Appraised Value and Allocation Schedule shall be deemed final unless Purchasers notify Eagle Holdings in writing that Purchasers object to the Appraised Value and/or one or more items reflected in the Allocation Schedule within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Purchasers. In the event of any such objection, Sellers and Purchasers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Sellers and Purchasers are unable to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Sellers, such dispute shall be resolved by an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants mutually appointed by Sellers and Purchasers whose determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchasers, on the other hand; provided, however, that if one such side substantially prevails in such dispute, then the non-prevailing Party(ies) shall bear all such fees and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt a Party shall be deemed to have “substantially prevailed” if the final determination by the accounting firm, in the case of Purchasers, is at least twenty percent (20%) greater than the Appraised Value, and, in the case of Sellers, is not more than twenty percent (20%) greater than the Appraised Value. Sellers and Purchasers agree to file their respective IRS Forms 8594 and all Tax Returns in accordance with the Allocation Schedule. Neither Purchasers nor Sellers shall take any position in a filed Income Tax Return or statement that is inconsistent with such allocations and Purchasers and Sellers will use reasonable efforts to sustain such position in any Tax Proceeding.

(e) Purchasers shall have the right to withhold all Taxes it is required by Law to withhold from all payments made hereunder, and will provide Sellers with proof of deposit or payment of any such Taxes withheld. For the avoidance of doubt, however, in connection with the sale of the Transferred Interests in Newco, APIL shall provide to Purchasers a valid and properly completed W-8BEN-E establishing its status as the beneficial owner for purposes of the U.S.-Ireland Treaty of those payments to APIL of the Purchase Price (including, for the avoidance of doubt, portions of the Initial Purchase Price, the Warrant and the Earn-Out Consideration) made under Section 2.2(b)(ii) and so long as APIL has provided Purchasers with such a W-8BEN-E that has not expired, Purchasers shall treat all such payments to APIL as exempt from U.S. federal Income Tax pursuant to the Code and/or Article 12 or Article 13 of

As promptly as practicable but no later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchasers shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a statement (the “Initial Post-Closing Adjustment Statement”) of (i) the Closing Working Capital, (ii) the Closing Cash Amount, (iii) the Closing Date Indebtedness, (iv) the Closing Date Transaction Fees; and (v) the Adjustment Amount, setting forth Purchasers’ calculation of the Adjustment Amount as of the Closing together with reasonable supporting calculations and detail.

The Parties shall cooperate during such Resolution Period and Sellers and their Representatives shall have access to the books and records, working papers, schedules and calculations of the Purchasers and the Transferred Entities used in the preparation of the Initial Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, the Notice of Disagreement and the determination of the Disputed Items, and to the personnel involved in the preparation and calculation thereof, during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice.

(d) Dispute Resolution.

(i) If, at the end of the Resolution Period, Sellers and Purchasers have been unable to resolve all Disputed Items, Sellers and Purchasers shall submit the remaining Disputed Items with respect to the Notice of Disagreement (along with a copy of the Initial Post-Closing Adjustment Statement marked to indicate those line items that are not in dispute) to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or, if that firm declines to act as provided in this Section 2.5(d) or it is determined that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP would not be considered “independent” under applicable professional standards, another firm of independent public accountants, selected promptly by and mutually reasonably acceptable to Purchasers and Sellers (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The Independent Accounting Firm shall be instructed to make, within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Resolution Period or, if applicable, the date of selection of the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to the preceding sentence, a final determination in accordance with this Agreement, binding on the Parties, of the appropriate amount of each of the Disputed Items which Sellers and Purchasers have submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm, calculated in accordance with the standards set forth in this Agreement, and to promptly notify the Parties in writing of its determination. With respect to each amount in dispute, the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Sellers or Purchasers, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Sellers in the Notice of Disagreement or by Purchasers in the Initial Post-Closing Adjustment Statement with respect to such disputed amount.

(ii) During the review by the Independent Accounting Firm, Purchasers and Sellers will each provide the Independent Accounting Firm with such access to their respective books, records, accountants, audit work papers and relevant employees as may be reasonably required by the Independent Accounting Firm to fulfill its obligations under this Section 2.5; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 2.5 shall require Sellers, Purchasers or any of their respective Affiliates to disclose any attorney-client privileged information to the extent that disclosure thereof might result in the loss of attorney-client privilege.

(iii) All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be split equally between Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchasers on the other hand.

2.6 Post-Closing Adjustment. The “Post-Closing Adjustment” shall be equal to (i) the Final Adjustment Amount set forth in the Final Post-Closing Adjustment Statement less (ii) the Closing Adjustment.

(c) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 5.14 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the other Party, including without limitation such Party’s confidential information and goodwill. Each Party agrees, and shall not contest, that the other Party’s remedies at law for any breach or threat of breach by such Party or its Affiliates of the provisions of this Section 5.14 will be inadequate, and that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Section 5.14 and to enforce specifically such terms and provisions, in addition to any other remedy to which the other Party may be entitled at law or in equity.

any loss, claim, liability, expense or other damage attributable to any Taxes imposed on Sellers and their Affiliates (including, prior to Closing, the Transferred Entities) caused by, resulting from, consisting of, or related to (i) Purchasers’ failure to comply with their obligations under Section 2.2(b) with respect to the allocation and reporting of the Purchase Price for the Transferred Interests or failure to treat any portion of the Initial Purchase Price, the Warrant or the Earn-Out Consideration paid to APIL (other than by reason of APIL failing to meet its obligations under Section 2.2(e) to provide Purchasers with valid withholding certificates as set forth therein) as exempt from United States federal Income Tax under the Code and/or Article 12 or Article 13 of the U.S.-Ireland Tax Treaty or for exemption from FATCA Taxes, and (ii) any transaction entered into or action taken by Purchasers occurring on or after the Closing Date after the Closing (including, without limitation, any Divestiture by Purchasers).

(b) Purchasers and Sellers further agree, upon request, to use their best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(b) Each Party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 9.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if Purchasers fail promptly to pay the amounts due pursuant to this Section 9.4, and, in order to obtain such payments, Sellers commence a suit that results in a judgment against Purchasers for the amounts set forth in this Section 9.4, Purchasers will pay to Sellers, Sellers’ costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) in connection with such suit. The Parties acknowledge that the Reverse Termination Fee shall not constitute a penalty but rather is liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Sellers in the circumstances in which the Reverse Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Sale, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 9.4(b), in any circumstance in which Sellers have the right to receive the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.4(a), Sellers’ termination of this Agreement and receipt of the Reverse Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Sellers and their Affiliates against Purchasers, the financing sources of the Debt Financing and any of their respective, direct or indirect, former, current or future general or limited partners, managers, members, stockholders, officers, directors, Affiliates, employees, representatives, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or the Debt Financing Agreements, and upon such termination by Sellers and receipt of the Reverse Termination Fee, none of the Purchasers, the financing sources of the Debt Financing, or any of their respective Purchaser Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or the Debt Financing Agreements (except that the applicable Purchaser Related Parties of the Purchasers (and not the Purchaser Related Parties of the financing sources of the Debt Financing) shall remain obligated for, and Sellers and their Subsidiaries may be entitled to remedies with respect to, any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or the provisions of Section 11.3, whether in equity or at law, in contract, in tort or otherwise).

ARTICLE X

Subject to the provisions of this Article X, from and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchasers and its Affiliates, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchasers Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses to the extent resulting from or arising out of:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty of Sellers contained in Article III of this Agreement as of the Closing Date (or with respect to representations and warranties that are made as of a specific date, as of such date);

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed by Sellers after the Closing; and

(c) the Initial Retention Bonuses.

10.3 Indemnification by Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, from and after the Closing Date, Purchasers shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and their Affiliates, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing from and against any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of:

under this Article X except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure, it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 10.1 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, other than a Tax Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, to undertake, conduct and control the settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party); provided that the Indemnifying Party shall only be entitled to undertake, conduct and control such settlement or defense if it acknowledges, in writing, to the Indemnified Party, its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to the terms and subject to the limitations of this Article X. The Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 10.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense through counsel of its own choice, and the reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with such defense shall be considered Losses hereunder with respect to the subject matter of such claim, indemnifiable to the extent provided in this Article X, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the settlement or defense of a Third Party Claim under this Section 10.4(b) unless: (A) the Third Party Claim involves solely monetary damages, (B) the Indemnifying Party demonstrates to the Indemnified Party’s reasonable satisfaction that the Indemnifying Party has sufficient financial resources in order to indemnify for the full amount of such potential Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is reasonably likely to be liable pursuant to this Article X, and (C) the amount of such potential Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is reasonably likely to be liable does not exceed the Cap. If either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party assumes the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as applicable, shall select counsel and shall use commercially reasonable efforts in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim. Purchasers or Sellers, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, as applicable, in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing Books and Records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Indemnified Party; provided that such settlement or judgment shall consist solely of a recovery of monetary damages for which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to this Article X, and the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts in such settlement or judgment (other than solely with respect to the Deductible would be applicable in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 10.5) and (ii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete and unconditional release of any Indemnified Party affected by such Third Party Claim. Except as set forth in the previous sentence, no Party shall settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,

conditioned or delayed; provided, that is shall not be unreasonable for an Indemnified Party to withhold its consent to any settlement that involves any injunctive relief binding on any of the Indemnified Parties or a finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party. No Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 10.4 shall be subject to the provisions of any Contract providing for the defense or prosecution of any Action.

10.5 Limitations.

(a) Sellers shall have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a) with respect to Losses for which indemnification is provided thereunder, (i) to the extent such Losses were included in the calculation of Working Capital on the Final Post-Closing Adjustment Statement, as finally determined pursuant to Sections 2.4 through 2.7, (ii) to the extent that Purchasers received a benefit from the reflection of such matter in the calculation of the adjustment of the Initial Purchase Price, if any, as finally determined pursuant to Sections 2.4 through 2.7, (iii) that are De Minimis Damages or (iv) unless the aggregate of all Losses (other than De Minimis Damages) exceeds Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Deductible”) in which case Sellers shall be liable for all such Losses (other than De Minimis Damages) in excess of the amount of the Deductible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a) with respect to Losses of any aggregate amount that exceeds the Cap, it being understood that in the event any Purchasers Indemnified Party seeks indemnification for Losses in excess of the Cap and the Cap subsequently increases to a greater value as a result of the payment of Development Milestone Earn-Out Consideration and/or Commercial Milestone Earn-Out Consideration to APIL, such Purchasers Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek indemnification in accordance with such increased Cap and the terms of this Agreement.

(b) The Deductible and the Cap shall not apply to any Losses arising out of or resulting from (1) the breach of any Fundamental Representation, (2) the breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.12 (Taxes); (3) the breach of any Purchasers Fundamental Representation; (4) the breach of any covenant set forth in this Agreement; or (5) fraud.

(c) Purchasers shall have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.3(a) with respect to Losses for which indemnification is provided thereunder, (i) that are De Minimis Damages or (ii) unless the aggregate of all Losses (other than De Minimis Damages) exceeds the Deductible, in which case Purchasers shall be liable for all such Losses (other than De Minimis Damages) in excess of the amount of the Deductible.

(d) For purposes of calculating the amount of any Losses arising out of or resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty of set forth in this Agreement, any reference to “Material Adverse Effect” or “materiality” or other correlative terms in such representations or warranties shall be disregarded.

(e) Sellers shall not be liable under this Article X for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement if Purchasers had knowledge, based solely upon written documentation included in the data room, of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing. For purposes of this Section 10.5(e), Purchasers shall be deemed to have knowledge of all written documentation included in the data room as of the date hereof and included on the disk delivered pursuant to Section 5.21.

10.6 Mitigation; Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(a) Each Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that an Indemnified Party asserts under this Article X (including by taking reasonable best efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity provisions covering any Losses for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder, to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder).

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, Losses shall be calculated after giving effect to amounts actually received under any insurance policy, (net of any costs to recover such amounts and increases in premiums resulting from such claim).

(c) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided shall be adjusted to take into account the amount of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of the incurrence or payment of any such Losses in the form of a refund or reduction in Taxes otherwise payable within the tax year in which the Losses were incurred or paid, or the next two immediately succeeding tax years, in each case, calculated by comparing Taxes that would have been payable without taking into account any deduction or credit resulting from such Losses and Taxes actually payable by taking into account such deductions or credits (but only after all other items of income, gain, loss and deduction have been taken into account). If the Indemnified Party actually realizes a Tax benefit after an indemnification payment is made to it that was not taken into account at the time the indemnification payment was made, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount that the indemnification payment would have been reduced by if such Tax benefit had been actually realized prior to the time such indemnification payment was made.

(d) No Indemnified Party will, in any event, be entitled to any incidental, indirect, consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages, including actual or potential lost profits, diminution in value or measures of damages based on a multiple.

10.7 Liquidated Damages. In the event of the occurrence of an event described on Section 10.7 of the Sellers Disclosure Letter (a “Liquidated Damages Event”), monetary damages would be difficult, if not impossible, to measure. The Parties therefore agree that liquidated damages shall be payable by Sellers to Purchasers in the manner and amount described on Schedule 10.7 of the Sellers Disclosure Letter. Such payments shall begin to be made to Purchasers within sixty (60) days of receipt by Sellers from Purchasers of written notice of the existence of a Liquidated Damages Event, and thereafter shall be made within thirty (30) days of the end of any month in which a Liquidated Damages Event exists. The Parties

acknowledge and agree that this liquidated damages provision is reasonable and does not constitute a penalty. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Parties further agree that this is the sole and exclusive remedy for any Losses arising from or in connection with the events or circumstances set forth on Section 10.7 of the Sellers Disclosure Letter.

10.8 Exclusive Remedies. Except with respect to the matters covered by Section 2.5, Section 2.6, Section 5.14, Section 10.7, Section 11.10, and, with respect to indemnification for Tax matters, Article VII, Sellers and Purchasers acknowledge and agree that, following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Sellers and Purchasers, respectively, for any Losses (whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, Environmental Law (including CERCLA or any similar state law) or otherwise) that each Party may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with, any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by the other Parties or any failure by the other Parties to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, by such other Parties prior to the Closing.

10.9 Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party (including pursuant to this Agreement) in connection with any claim or demand by any Person other than the Parties hereto or their respective Affiliates, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnified Party as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right, defense or claim relating to such claim or demand against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such claim or demand. Such Indemnified Party shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost of such Indemnifying Party, in presenting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

10.10 Tax Indemnification Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article X, the above provisions of this Article X shall not apply to Tax indemnification matters, which shall instead be governed by Article VII.

10.11 No Duplication. Any liability for indemnification under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery due to the facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, 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. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile or as an attachment to an e-mail and upon such delivery the signature will be deemed to have the same effect as if the original signature had been delivered to the other Parties.

No Party to this Agreement shall seek a jury trial in any Action based upon, or arising out of, this Agreement or any related instruments or the relationship between the Parties.

(c) Except as expressly permitted pursuant to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Intellectual Property Transfer and License Agreement and the IP License Agreement, from and after the Closing Date, Purchasers will refrain from, either alone or in conjunction with any other Person, or directly or indirectly through its Affiliates or Representatives, disclosing to any other Person, or using in any manner, any confidential, proprietary or secret information relating to the Sellers and their businesses other than the Transferred Entities and the Business (“Seller Confidential Information”); provided that the foregoing obligations of confidentiality and non-use will not apply to any portion of the Seller Confidential Information that (A) is or becomes generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain after the Closing Date and other than through any act or omission of the foregoing Persons or their Affiliates in breach of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Intellectual Property Transfer and License Agreement or the IP License Agreement, (B) is disclosed after the Closing Date to the foregoing Persons on a non-confidential basis by a third party that is not subject to an obligation of confidentiality with respect to such Seller Confidential Information, and (C) is independently discovered or developed by the foregoing Persons or their Affiliates after the Closing Date without the aid, application, or use of such Seller Confidential Information.

(e) The Parties acknowledge that either or both Parties may be obligated to make filings (including, but not limited to, the filing of a copy of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements) with the SEC or other Governmental Entity. Each Party shall be entitled to make such required filings, provided that it requests confidential treatment of at least the financial

terms and sensitive technical terms of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements to the extent such confidential treatment is reasonably available to such Party. In the event of any such filing of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, the Party making such filing shall provide notice to the other Party with a copy of such disclosure and, if applicable, a copy of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements marked to show provisions for which such Party intends to seek confidential treatment not less than five (5) Business Days prior to such filing (and any revisions to such portions of the proposed filing a reasonable time prior to the filing thereof), and shall give good faith consideration to the other Party’s comments thereon to the extent consistent with the legal requirements. No such notice shall be required under this Section 11.3(e) if the substance of the description of or reference to this Agreement contained in the proposed filing has been included in any previous filing made by either Party hereunder or otherwise approved by the other Party.

11.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement) together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Confidential Disclosure Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements contain the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any prior discussion, correspondence, negotiation, proposed term sheet, agreement, understanding or arrangement, and there are no agreements, understandings, representations or warranties among the Parties other than those set forth or referred to in these documents. None of the Parties shall be liable or bound to any other Party in any manner by any representations, warranties or covenants relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement), the Ancillary Agreements or the Confidentiality Agreement.

11.5 Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or not, all legal and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses and any such costs of Sellers shall be the obligation of Parent; provided, however, that all filing fees paid in connection with the antitrust filings made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) shall be borne equally by Purchasers and Sellers.

11.7 Assignment.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Party to this Agreement will assign its rights or delegate any or all of its obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of each other Party to this Agreement, except that either Party may assign its benefits under this Agreement to an Affiliate of that Party. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 11.7 shall be void.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.7(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, APIL may assign its rights to any third party to (a) receive the Net Sales Earn-Out Consideration, (b) receive the Net Sales Report, (c) audit the records of Purchasers,

their Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees as described in Section 3.3 of Exhibit E, and (d) make indemnification claims against Purchasers, in connection with any securitization or monetization of the Net Sales Earn-Out Consideration (a “Securitization”), and APIL may disclose Business Confidential Information to a third party in connection with a Securitization to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the third party to evaluate the Securitization opportunity and to allow APIL to exercise its rights under this Section 11.7(b).

11.8 Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person not a party to this Agreement (and their successors and assigns) any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, that the rights of the financing sources of the Debt Financing provided in this Section 11.8 and Section 9.4(c), Section 11.9 and Section 11.14 shall be enforceable by the financing sources of the Debt Financing, their Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns.

11.9 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought. Each Party to this Agreement may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other Parties to this Agreement with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other Parties to this Agreement to be performed or complied with. The waiver by any Party to this Agreement of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment or waiver of this sentence of Section 11.9 or Section 9.4(c), Section 11.8 or Section 11.14 shall require the prior written consent of Orbimed Royalty Opportunities II, LP, but only to the extent that such Sections relate to the financing sources of the Debt Financing, their Affiliates or their respective successors or assigns.

11.10 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches by the Parties of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any of the other Parties has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any Party against whom an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement is sought hereby waives any requirement for the Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction. The foregoing is in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled at law, in equity or otherwise. The Parties further agree that nothing set forth in this Section 11.10 shall require any Party hereto to institute any Action for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any Action for) specific performance under this Section 11.10 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article IX (and pursuing damages after such termination).

such books and records shall be open during regular business hours for a period of three (3) years from the creation of individual books and records for examination, by an independent certified public accountant selected by APIL and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser for the sole purpose of verifying for APIL the accuracy of the financial statements, reports and notices furnished by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and this Exhibit E, and of any payments made, or required to be made, by Purchaser to APIL pursuant to this Agreement and this Exhibit E.

  ARTICLE 4

Reversion.

4.1 Determination of Reversion Event.

(a) A “Reversion Event” shall exist in the event that Purchaser, itself or through one or more of its Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees, (i) fails to satisfy the NDA Requirement, or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of APIL, fails to comply with its Commercially Reasonable Efforts requirements under Section 3.1 of this Exhibit E; provided that, any such failure is not attributable to the material breach by APIL or any of its Affiliates of any of the Ancillary Agreements, which material breach was noticed by Purchaser prior to its receipt of a Reversion Notice from APIL under this Section 4.1.

(A) In the event the failure to satisfy the NDA Requirement is the result of a change in the FDA’s policies or procedures regarding the approval of the Earn-Out Product or drugs in the same class as the Earn-Out Product, and Purchaser, its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees have used Commercially Reasonable Efforts to accommodate such change and were still unable to satisfy the NDA Requirement, then the deadline shall be extended for a reasonable period of time, but not more than three-hundred sixty-five (365) calendar days or such longer period of time as determined by APIL in good faith based on the impact of such change in the FDA’s policies or procedures on their ability to accommodate such change in policies or procedures. (B) In the event the failure to satisfy the NDA Requirement is the result of other delays or circumstances that are outside of the reasonable control of Purchaser or its Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees, and Purchaser, its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees have used Commercially Reasonable Efforts consistent with Section 3.1 of this Exhibit E to overcome such delay or circumstance, then APIL will reasonably consider extending the deadline for a reasonable period of time, but not more than three-hundred sixty-five (365) days, to overcome such failure. In each case of (A) or (B), the compliance with such new deadline shall remain an obligation of Purchaser, its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees subject to their diligence efforts under Section 3.1 of this Exhibit E and APIL’s rights under this Section 4.1(a).

(b) Upon a Reversion Event, APIL shall provide Purchaser with written notice of such Reversion Event (a “Reversion Notice”). If Purchaser disagrees with APIL regarding the existence of a Reversion Event, it shall notify APIL within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a Reversion Notice of its disagreement (such period, the “Challenge Period,” and such notice, a “Disagreement Notice”). For a period of thirty (30) Business Days following the delivery of such Disagreement Notice, Purchaser and APIL shall seek in good faith to come to an agreement on the existence of the Reversion Event. If at the end of such thirty (30) Business Day period the Purchaser and APIL have not reached an agreement, they shall jointly select an independent mediator, free of any conflict with either Party, having the requisite licensing and pharmaceutical industry experience to render a decision regarding the existence of a Reversion Event, and selected from a panel of persons experienced in the pharmaceutical and life sciences

industries provided by Judicial Administration and Arbitration Services or its successor (“JAMS”). If the Parties do not agree on an independent mediator within five (5) Business Days of initiating mediation under this Section 4.1(b), the independent mediator shall be selected by JAMS in accordance with its rules. Each Party shall prepare and submit a written summary of such Party’s position, which shall not exceed twenty-five (25) pages, and any relevant evidence in support thereof to the independent mediator within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the independent mediator. Upon receipt of such summaries from both Parties, the independent mediator shall provide copies of the same to the other Party. The independent mediator shall be authorized to solicit briefing or other submissions on particular questions and to set specific page limits for such additional briefing and submissions. Within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such summaries by the independent mediator, each Party shall submit a written rebuttal of the other Party’s summary and may also amend and re-submit its original summary, with each Party’s response to include a supporting explanation of why its proposed terms are more appropriate than the other Party’s proposed terms and any documentary evidence in support thereof. Oral presentations shall not be permitted unless otherwise requested by the independent mediator. Only if so permitted, a neutral location of any such oral presentations shall be selected by the independent mediator. The independent mediator shall make a final decision with respect to the arbitration matter within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the last of such rebuttal statements submitted by the Parties, and shall make a determination by selecting the resolution proposed by one of the Parties that as a whole is the most fair and reasonable to the Parties in light of the totality of the circumstances, and shall provide the Parties with a written statement setting forth the basis of the determination in connection therewith. For clarity, the independent mediator shall only have the right to select a resolution proposed by one of the Parties in its entirety and without modification. The decision of the independent mediator shall be controlling regarding the existence of a Reversion Event. The Purchaser and APIL shall bear the costs of the independent mediator equally.

(c) If the existence of a Reversion Event, other than one that involves a failure to satisfy the NDA Requirement, is confirmed, through (i) Purchaser’s non-delivery of a Notice of Disagreement or (ii) through the determination of an independent mediator, Purchaser, itself or through one or more of its Affiliates, licensees or sublicensees shall have the right to cure such Reversion Event for a period of four (4) months from the determination of such Reversion Event (such period, the “Cure Period”) and, if it elects to exercise such right, shall notify APIL in writing of the same. In the case that such Reversion Event is cured in APIL’s reasonable judgment during or by the end of the Cure Period, such Reversion Event shall no longer exist and APIL shall not have the right to invoke any other rights under this Article 4 in connection with such event that would have remained a Reversion Event but for such cure.

(d) For purposes of this Article 4, the “Reversion Date” shall be (i) the date on which the Challenge Period expires without Purchaser having sent a Disagreement Notice to APIL, unless the Reversion Event at issue qualifies for a right to cure pursuant to Section 4.1(c) of this Exhibit E and Purchaser has elected to exercise such right to cure in which case clause (d)(iii) below shall apply, (ii) where the Reversion Event involves a failure to satisfy the NDA Requirement and Purchaser has sent a Disagreement Notice in connection therewith, the date on which the Parties agree, or the independent mediator issues its determination, that such Reversion Event has occurred, or (iii) where the Reversion Event does not involve a failure to satisfy the NDA Requirement, and Purchaser has elected its right to cure pursuant to Section 4.1(c) of this Exhibit E, the date on which the Cure Period expires without Purchaser having cured such Reversion Event to APIL’s reasonable satisfaction.

4.2 Events Upon Determination of a Reversion Event.

(a) On the Reversion Date, all licenses and other rights of Purchaser and its Affiliates, licensees and sublicensees under the Intellectual Property Transfer and License Agreement

Holder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time on any day on or prior to the Expiration Date, by delivering the original of this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the net exercise right set forth in Article 1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check, wire transfer (to an account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased.

1.2 Net Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Article 1.1, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares by (b) the fair market value of one Share.

Article 1.2 are intended, in part, to ensure that a full or partial exchange of this Warrant pursuant to this Article 1.2 will qualify as a conversion, within the meaning of paragraph (d)(3)(ii) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. At the request of Holder, the Company will accept reasonable modifications to the exchange procedures provided for in this Article in order to accomplish such intent. For all purposes of this Warrant (other than this Article 1.2), any reference herein to the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to include a reference to the exchange of this Warrant into Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article 1.2.

1.3 Fair Market Value. If the Company’s common stock is traded in a public market, the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price of a share of common stock reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company. If the Company’s common stock is not traded in a public market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value of a Share (the “Appraised Value”) in its reasonable good faith judgment. If Holder (as defined below) shall, for any reason whatsoever, disagree with such Appraised Value, then such Holder shall, by giving written notice to the Company (an “Appraisal Notice”) within ten (10) days after the Company notifies the Holder of such determination, elect to dispute such determination, and such dispute shall be resolved as set forth in Article 1.3.1 below.

1.3.1 Appraisal Resolution. The Company shall within ten (10) days after an Appraisal Notice shall have been given, engage an independent investment bank of national repute (the “Appraiser”) that is mutually agreeable to the Company and Holder and retained pursuant to an engagement letter between the Company and the Appraiser with respect to such valuation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Holder, to make an independent determination of the Appraised Value of a Share. The costs of engagement of such investment bank for any such determination of Appraised Value shall be shared equally between the Company and Holder and Holder shall promptly reimburse the Company for fifty percent (50%) of such costs.

1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant and, if applicable, the Company receives payment of the aggregate Warrant Price, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Shares not so acquired.

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 amount 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.

1.6 Treatment of Warrant upon Corporate Reorganization.

1.6.1 Corporate Reorganization.

(a) Without limiting any of the provisions hereof, if any: (i) capital reorganization; (ii) reclassification of the capital stock of the Company; (iii) merger, consolidation or reorganization or other similar transaction or series of related transactions which results in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto representing immediately thereafter (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or acquiring entity) less than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of or economic interests in the Company or such surviving or acquiring entity outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization; (iv) sale, lease, license, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (v) sale of shares of capital stock of the Company, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, representing at least 50% of the voting power of the voting securities of or economic interests in the Company; or (vi) the acquisition by any “person” (together with his, her or its Affiliates) or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) directly or indirectly, of the beneficial ownership (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of outstanding shares of capital stock and/or other equity securities of the Company, in a single transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, one or more tender offers or exchange offers), representing at least 50% of the voting power of or economic interests in the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation (each of (i)-(vi) above a “Corporate Reorganization”) shall be effected, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Holder shall thereafter continue to have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Holder, shares of stock in the surviving or acquiring entity (“Acquirer”), as the case may be, such that the aggregate value of the Holder’s warrants to purchase such number of shares, where the value of each new warrant to purchase one share in the Acquirer is determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing formula set forth in Appendix 2 hereto, is at least equivalent to the aggregate value of the Warrants held by such Holder immediately prior to such Corporate Reorganization, where the value of each Warrant to purchase one share in the Company is determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing formula set forth Appendix 3 hereto. Furthermore, the new warrants to purchase shares in the Acquirer referred to herein shall have the same expiration date as the Warrant, and shall have a strike price, KAcq, that is calculated in accordance with Appendix 2 hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, if the surviving or acquiring entity, as the case may be, is a member of a consolidated group for financial reporting purposes, the “Acquirer” shall be deemed to be the parent of such consolidated group for purposes of this Article 1.6 and Appendix 2 hereto.

(b) Appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that prior to

or simultaneously with the consummation of a Corporate Reorganization, the successor corporation resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume by written instrument, reasonably deemed by the Board of Directors of the Company and Holder to be satisfactory in form and substance, the obligation to deliver to the holder of the Warrants, at the last address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under these Warrants. The provisions of this Article 1.6 shall similarly apply to successive Corporate Reorganizations. If the Company, in spite of using its commercially reasonable best efforts, is unable to cause these Warrants to continue in full force and effect until the Expiration Date in connection with any Corporate Reorganization, then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Holder, prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of any such Corporate Reorganization, an amount per Warrant to purchase one share in the Company that is calculated in accordance with the Black-Scholes Option Pricing formula set forth in Appendix 3 hereto. Such payment shall be made in cash in the event that the Corporate Reorganization results in the shareholders of the Company receiving cash from the Acquirer at the closing of the transaction, and shall be made in shares of the Company (with the value of each share in the Company is determined according to SCorp Appendix 3 hereto) in the event that the Corporate Reorganization results in the shareholders of the Company receiving shares in the Acquirer or other entity at the closing of the transaction, in the event that the shareholders of the Company receive both cash and shares at the closing of the transaction, such payment to Holder shall be also be made in both cash and shares in the same proportion as the consideration received by the shareholders.

ARTICLE 2

ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES

2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on the outstanding shares of the Class payable in common stock or other securities, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend occurred. If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the Class by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of the Class are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to the Holder a certificate pursuant to Article 2.6 below setting forth the number and kind of such new securities or other property issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant as a result of such stock dividend, subdivision, combination or consolidation by reclassification or otherwise or other event that results in a change to the number and/or class of securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant. The provisions of this Article 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive stock dividends, subdivisions, combinations, consolidations or other events.

2.2 Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include, without limitation, any automatic conversion of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a certificate pursuant to Article 2.6 below setting forth the number and kind of such new securities or other property issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant as a result of such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant. The provisions of this Article 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events.

2.3 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or bylaws or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, 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 to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this Article against impairment.

2.4 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the fair market value of a full Share.

2.5 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, Class and/or number of Shares, the Company shall promptly notify Holder in writing, and, at the Company’s expense, promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares.

2.6 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 Article 2, the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all Shares which the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrant.

3.2 Notice of Certain Events. If the Company proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution upon the outstanding shares of the Class, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend; (b) to offer for subscription or sale pro rata to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Class any additional shares of any class or series of the Company’s stock (other than pursuant to contractual pre-emptive rights); (c) to effect any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the shares of the Class; or (d) to effect an Acquisition or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder: (1) at least 10 days prior written notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of shares of the Class will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above; and (2) in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least 10 days prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of shares of the Class will be entitled to exchange their shares for the securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event).

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OF THE HOLDER

The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

4.1 Purchase for Investment.

COMPETITIVE HARM TO THE REGISTRANT IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

4.2 Unregistered Securities; Legend. Holder understands that the Warrants and the Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law, by reason of their issuance in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such laws, that the Warrants and the Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and such laws or a subsequent disposition thereof is exempt from registration, that the Warrants and the Shares shall bear a legend to such effect, and that appropriate stop transfer instructions may be issued. Holder further understands that such exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Holder’s investment intent expressed herein.

4.3 Status of the Holder. Holder has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Warrants or the Shares. Holder understands the term “accredited investor” as used in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and represents and warrants to the Company that Holder is an “accredited investor” for purposes of acquiring the Warrants and the Shares. If Holder is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986), Holder has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with this Agreement, including (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for issuance of this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of this Warrant or the Shares issuable upon exercise. Holder’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Warrant and Shares issuable upon exercise will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Holder’s jurisdiction.

4.4 Knowledge and Experience; Economic Risk. Holder has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial matters and with respect to investment in securities of privately held companies so as to enable it to analyze and evaluate the merits and risks of the investment contemplated hereby and is capable of protecting its interest in connection with this transaction. Holder is able to bear the economic risk of such investment, including a complete loss of the investment.

4.5 Access to Information. Holder acknowledges that Holder and its representatives have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from officers and representatives of the Company concerning the Company and its business and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to obtain any additional information which the Company possesses or can acquire that is necessary to verify the accuracy of the information regarding the Company herein set forth or otherwise desired in connection with its purchase of the Warrants and the Shares.

4.6 Rule 144. Holder understands that the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of which are known to such Investor) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act depends upon the satisfaction of various conditions, and that such exemption is not currently available.

APPENDIX 2

Black Scholes Option Pricing formula to be used when calculating the value of each new warrant to purchase one share in the Acquirer shall be:

 

LOGO

CAcq = value of each warrant to purchase one share in the Acquirer.

SAcq = price of Acquirer’s stock as determined by reference to the average of the closing prices on the securities exchange over the 20-day period ending three trading days prior to the closing of the Corporate Reorganization described in Article 1.6.1 if the Acquirer’s stock is then traded on such exchange or system, or the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) in the over-the-counter market over the 20-day period ending three trading days prior to the closing of the Corporate Reorganization if the Acquirer’s stock is then actively traded in the over-the-counter market, or the then most recently completed financing if the Acquirer’s stock is not then traded on a securities exchange or system or in the over-the-counter market.

TAcq = expiration date of new warrants to purchase shares in the Acquirer = TCorp.

tAcq = date of issue of new warrants to purchase shares in the Acquirer.

TAcq-tAcq = time until warrant expiration, expressed in years.

s = volatility = annualized standard deviation of daily log-returns (using a 262-day annualization factor) of the Acquirer’s stock price on the securities exchange over a 20-day trading period, determined by Holder, that is within the 100-day trading period ending on the trading day immediately after the public announcement of the Corporate Reorganization described in Article 1.6.1 if the Acquirer’s stock is then traded on such exchange or system, or the annualized standard deviation of daily-log returns (using a 262-day annualization factor) of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) in the over-the-counter market over a 20-day trading period, determined by the Holder, that is within the 100-day trading period ending on the trading day immediately after the public announcement of the Corporate Reorganization if the Acquirer’s stock is then actively traded in the over-the-counter market, or 0.6 (or 60%) if the Acquirer’s stock is not then traded on a securities exchange or system or in the over-the-counter market.

N = cumulative normal distribution function.

d1 = (ln(SAcq/KAcq) + (r- + l +s2/2)(TAcq-tAcq )) ÷ (sÖ(TAcq-tAcq)).

In = natural logarithm.

l - dividend rate of the Acquirer for the most recent 12-month period at the time of closing of the Corporate Reorganization.

KAcq = strike price of new warrants to purchase shares in the Acquirer = KCorp* (SAcq/ SCorp).

SCorp = price of Company stock as determined by reference to the average of the closing prices on the securities exchange over the 20-day period ending three trading days prior to the closing of the Corporate Reorganization described in Article 1.6.1 if the Company’s stock is then traded on such exchange or system, or the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) in the over-the-counter market over the 20-day period ending three trading days prior to the closing of the Corporate Reorganization if the Company’s stock is then actively traded in the over-the-counter market, or the then most recently completed financing if the Company’s stock is not then traded on a securities exchange or system or in the over-the-counter market.

TCorp = expiration date of Warrants to purchase shares in the Company.

tCorp - date of public announcement of transaction.

TCorp-tCorp - time until Warrant expiration, expressed in years.

s = volatility ~ the annualized standard deviation of daily log-returns (using a 262-day annualization factor) of the Company’s stock price on the securities exchange over a 20-day trading period, determined by Holder, that is within the 100-day trading period ending on the trading day immediately after the public announcement of the Corporate Reorganization described in Article 5(d) if the Company’s stock is then traded on such exchange or system, or the annualized standard deviation of daily-log returns (using a 262-day annualization factor) of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) in the over-the-counter market over a 20-day trading period, determined by the Holder, that is within the 100-day trading period ending on the trading day immediately after the public announcement of the Corporate Reorganization if the Company’s stock is then actively traded in the over-the-counter market, or 0.6 (or 60%) if the Company’s stock is not then traded on a securities exchange or system or in the over-the-counter market.
