hereinafter set forth. Such offer shall be in writing and shall specify the nature of the Transfer in which the Selling Stockholder desires to engage, including the name or names of the other party or parties to such proposed transaction and the terms thereof, including the purchase price and payment terms, if any, and shall have attached a written copy of the proposed offer to or from the other party or parties to the proposed transaction. Mayne Pharma may irrevocably accept the offer as to all, but not less than all, of the shares, in writing within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof.

7.4. Purchase Price and Terms. The purchase price and terms of payment set forth in any offer by a Selling Stockholder under Section 7.1 shall be identical to any offer given or received by such Selling Stockholder to or from a proposed third-party purchaser, except that if the consideration to be paid the Selling Stockholder by such proposed third-party purchaser consists in whole or in part of property (rather than cash), the purchaser(s) hereunder may transfer cash or other property of similar kind and equivalent value to the Selling Stockholder in payment for his shares of Common Stock. If a Selling Stockholder desires to pledge, give or otherwise encumber his shares of Common Stock, or make such other Transfer where the consideration for such Transfer is other than cash, then the purchase price for each share of Common Stock sold to Mayne Pharma pursuant to Section 7.1 of this Agreement shall be equal to the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, OTCQB Marketplace or any exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded for the 20-day trading period ending on the trading date immediately prior to the date of acceptance by Mayne Pharma of the offer set forth in Section 7.1 (the “Price Per Share”).

7.5. Acceptance of Offers. Any offer made pursuant to Section 7.1 may be accepted by Mayne Pharma within the time provided for acceptance of such offer by Mayne Pharma giving written notice of its irrevocable acceptance to the Person making the offer. An offer shall be deemed to be rejected unless written notice of acceptance of the offer has been received by the Person making the offer prior to the expiration of the time for acceptance set forth in Section 7.1 hereof.
7.6. Closing of Purchase.

The purchase price for all shares of Common Stock sold pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof shall be paid in accordance with the terms of payment determined as set forth in Section 7.4 above. The Selling Stockholder shall represent and warrant to the purchasers that he is conveying to them such shares, with full warranties of title, free and clear of any claims, options, charges, encumbrances or rights of others, except as may be created by this Agreement.
7.7. Release from Restriction. If Mayne Pharma rejects the offer, fails to accept the offer in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof, or elects to purchase some but not all of the shares of Common Stock offered by the Selling Stockholder purusant to Section 7.1, then for a period of ninety (90) days after said thirty (30) day period, the shares of Common Stock subject to the offer which are not elected for purchase by Mayne Pharma and are desired to be Transferred by the Selling Stockholder may be Transferred only to such described party or parties and on the terms and conditions therein described, but on no more favorable terms, all as described in the offer pursuant to Section 7.1.

ARTICLE VIII.
COMMERCIALIZATION OF PRODUCT
8.1. Consequences if Commercialization Goal Not Met.
(a) HPPI agrees to use its reasonable commercial efforts, and the funds available under the HPLLC Promissory Note, to implement the Development Plan and commercialize the Product as soon as practicable and consistent with the Supply and License Agreement. The parties agree that HPPI shall (i) by ***, (ii) by December 31, 2014, close an equity financing, the gross proceeds of which received by HPPI shall be at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Follow On Offering”), provided, however, that such financing shall be subject to the terms and conditions provided herein and that HPPI shall grant to Mayne Pharma equivalent registration rights if any such registration rights are granted in such offering, (iii) by ***, and (iv) by ***.
(b) If HPPI fails to satisfy any of (i) through (iv) of Section 8.1(a) (the “Performance Goals”), then Mayne Pharma shall have the right by written notice to FEO and/or Virca, as the case may be, with a copy to HPPI, to demand the resignation by FEO and/or Virca, as the case may be, of his position as an officer, employee and Director, as the case may be, of HPPI, and FEO and/or Virca, as the case may be, shall submit to HPPI such written resignation within three (3) Business Days after his receipt of such notice from Mayne Pharma.
(c) If either (i) an Event of Default (as defined in the HPLLC Promissory Note) has occurred under the HPLLC Promissory Note, or (ii) HPLLC otherwise breaches the HPLLC Promissory Note, then Mayne Pharma shall have the right by written notice to FEO, with a copy to HPPI, to demand the resignation by FEO of his position as an officer, employee and Director, as the case may be, of HPPI, and FEO shall submit to HPPI such written resignation within three (3) Business Days after his receipt of such notice from Mayne Pharma.
(d) If either FEO or Virca, as the case may be, fails to submit such resignation, then HPPI shall terminate the employment or service of FEO or Virca, as the case may be, and the Board shall remove FEO or Virca, as the case may be, as an officer, and HPLLC and Mayne Pharma, as Stockholders, shall promptly take all necessary action to remove FEO from the Board. Virca agrees that if he is either terminated or required to resign under this Section 8.1, then such termination will be for Cause (as defined in the Virca Employment Agreement) and such resignation will not be for Good Reason (as defined in the Virca Employment Agreement), in each case under the Virca Employment Agreement. FEO and Virca each agree that if his resignation is required or he is terminated under this Section 8.1, then, notwithstanding any employment agreement or other service agreement he may have with HPPI, no severance, compensation, consideration or other payment shall be due or payable in connection therewith or herewith. HPLLC, FEO and Virca, and any transferee thereof, agrees (and shall cause any Affiliate) to vote any shares of Equity Securities he or it may own from time to time, to cause compliance with this Section 8.1(d) at any meeting of Stockholders at which such matter is considered, including calling such meeting of Stockholders, or execute a written consent of Stockholders in favor of such matter.
(e) FEO and Virca, and each of them, acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Performance Goals, and each of them, is fair, reasonable and attainable and (ii) the remedies to which either of them is subject, whether in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, for the failure by HPPI to satisfy the Performance Goals are fair and reasonable.

8.2. Surrender of Options; Sale and Forfeiture of Equity Securities; Purchase Right of Equity Securities.
(a) Each of FEO and Virca agrees that whether he resigns pursuant to the demand of Mayne Pharma under Section 8.1, or is terminated by HPPI pursuant to Section 8.1, then he shall forfeit all then unvested options, warrants, restricted stock units, or other right to acquire Equity Securities held personally of record and waive any claim to severance pay. Furthermore, upon such resignation or termination, Mayne Pharma shall have the right to purchase by written notice to FEO or Virca, as the case may be, delivered within sixty (60) days after such resignation or termination, all Equity Securities, vested options, vested warrants, vested restricted stock units and the like held personally of record by FEO and/or Virca or otherwise transferred by either of them, as the case may be, at the fair market value as of the date of such resignation or termination. The fair market value of any issued and outstanding Equity Securities held by FEO or Virca shall be determined by the Price Per Share, and the fair market value of any vested option or warrant shall equal to (i) the aggregate value of all Equity Securities determined by the Price Per Share which may be purchased pursuant to such option or warrant, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price to purchase such Equity Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock that is a FEO Indirect Share shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2(a) as long as such Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock is a FEO Indirect Share.
(b) If either (i) HPPI fails to satisfy any of the Performance Goals, (ii) an Event of Default has occurred under the HPLLC Promissory Note or (iii) HPLLC otherwise breaches the HPLLC Promissory Note, then HPPI shall have the right at its election and as full liquidated damages to declare by written notice to HPLLC and to Mayne Pharma that some or all of the HPLLC At Risk Shares shall be forfeited by HPLLC to HPPI (“Default Notice”). If HPPI makes such election, it shall have waived and released any and all claims it may have for any damages it may have suffered as a result of HPPI failing to satisfy the Performance Goals. HPLLC agrees that upon receipt of such Default Notice electing forfeiture, it shall, without payment or additional consideration, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Default Notice deliver to HPPI any and all stock certificates in its possession or control evidencing any of the HPLLC At Risk Shares duly endorsed for Transfer back to HPPI or accompanied by an executed stock power for Transfer back to HPPI. Such HPLLC At Risk Shares shall be Transferred back to HPPI free and clear of all Liens or claims of any nature. HPLLC further agrees upon HPPI delivering such Default Notice, HPPI shall be entitled to Transfer, and HPLLC hereby directs HPPI to Transfer, on its stock ledger back to HPPI any and all HPLLC At Risk Shares. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in light of the fact that (X) the purpose of the Performance Goals is for HPPI to pursue the Supply and License Agreement and to continue HPPI’s development of its products in order to seek additional funding from other sources, and (Y) the purpose of the HPLLC Promissory Note is to provide HPPI the necessary funds to maintain the agreed upon funding schedule to pursue the Performance Goals, it would be difficult or impossible to accurately and precisely ascertain the actual damages suffered by HPPI by failing to satisfy the Performance Goals and experiencing an Event of Default, and therefore agree that the forfeiture by HPLLC of the HPLLC At Risk Shares (together with the possible forfeiture of the Purchased Shares (as defined in the HPLLC Stock Purchase Agreement)) is a reasonable pre-estimate of the probable damages and loss suffered by HPPI in
19

Confidential treatment requested with respect to certain portions hereof denoted with “***”
the event of such default. Any of the HPLLC At Risk Shares forfeited to HPPI under this Section 8.2(b) shall be cancelled on the books and records of HPPI. Any election and decision made by HPPI pursuant to this Section 8.2(b) shall be made by the majority approval of the disinterested Directors; for purposes of this Section 8.2(b), FEO shall be deemed to be an interested Director.
(c) If FEO, Virca or HPLLC, as the case may be, fails to deliver to HPPI or Mayne Pharma, as the case may be, the certificates or other instruments described in Section 8.2, the officers of HPPI, or any of them, are each hereby appointed as attorney-in-fact for FEO, Virca or HPLLC, as the case may be, for the purpose of complying with this Section 8.2, including Transferring any Equity Securities, and delivering any of the aforesaid certificates or other instruments to HPPI or Mayne Pharma, as the case may be, whereupon FEO or Virca’s rights with respect to the Equity Securities shall cease. Such officers shall incur no liability for such actions described in this Section 8.2(c). This appointment of the officers as attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest and such appointment is irrevocable.
(d) HPPI hereby grants Mayne Pharma the following purchase right (the “Purchase Right”) to purchase all or any part of the Purchase Right Shares at the Exercise Price (as defined below) per share and during the Purchase Right Term (as defined below).
(i) The “Purchase Right Term” shall be the period beginning on the date HPPI gives the Default Notice and continuing until the sixtieth (60th) day after such date. This Purchase Right may be exercised regardless of whether HPLLC honors its obligation to convey the HPLLC At Risk Shares back to HPPI as set forth in Section 8.2(b) above. If HPLLC does not honor its obligation to convey the HPLLC At Risk Shares back to HPPI, Mayne Pharma shall nevertheless have the right to purchase, and this Purchase Right shall be for, the Purchase Right Shares predicated upon the HPLLC At Risk Shares which HPLLC should have conveyed back to HPPI, and each of HPPI and Mayne Pharma shall have the right to seek specific performance to require HPLLC to convey the HPLLC At Risk Shares back to HPPI.
(ii) The “Exercise Price” per share of Common Stock shall be equal to the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board, OTCQB Marketplace or any exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded for the 20-day trading period ending on the trading date immediately prior to the date that Mayne Pharma gives the Notice of Exercise (as defined below). If the Purchase Right Shares are shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the “Exercise Price” per share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be the Exercise Price as determined by the prior sentence multiplied by the then-applicable conversion ratio.
(iii) This Purchase Right may be exercised by Mayne Pharma at any time prior to the expiration of the Purchase Right Term, in whole or in part, by delivering written notice of exercise (the “Notice of Exercise”), duly executed by Mayne Pharma to HPPI at its principal office, accompanied by payment, in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the order of HPPI and to an account designated by HPPI, of the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares designated in the Notice of
20

Exercise by the Exercise Price. For purposes hereof, “Exercise Date” shall mean the date on which all deliveries required to be made to HPPI upon exercise of this Purchase Right pursuant to this Section 8.2(d)(iii) shall have been made.
(iv) As soon as practicable (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days) after the valid exercise of this Purchase Right, in whole or in part, in accordance with clause (iii) immediately above, HPPI, at its expense, shall cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to Mayne Pharma a certificate or certificates (which shall contain appropriate restrictive legends) for the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares to which Mayne Pharma shall be entitled upon such exercise. Mayne Pharma shall for all purposes hereof be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the Exercise Date irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or certificates.
(v) The issuance of the shares upon the exercise of this Purchase Right, and the delivery of certificates or other instruments representing such shares, shall be made without charge to Mayne Pharma for any tax or other charge of whatever nature in respect of such issuance and HPPI shall bear any such taxes in respect of such issuance.
8.3. Mayne Pharma Remedy on Default. Mayne Pharma shall have the right to terminate the Supply and License Agreement without damages, penalty, or any liability whatsoever to any party hereto if: (x) either FEO or Virca fails to submit his resignation as demanded by Mayne Pharma under Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(c), and (y) within five (5) Business Days after written notice to HPPI, there has not been full compliance with Section 8.1(d). Mayne Pharma’s rights under this Section 8.3 are in addition to all other rights and remedies available under any agreement, at law or in equity. Mayne Pharma and HPPI agree that the Supply and License Agreement shall be deemed amended to add the provision of this Section 8.3.
8.4. Mayne Pharma Exercise of Rights; Covenant Not to ▇▇▇. The parties hereto agree that Mayne Pharma may decide in its sole and absolute discretion whether and when to exercise any of its rights under this Article VIII and that it may exercise such rights for any reason. In consideration of the benefits conferred upon them in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation the Agreed Reduction, and as a material inducement to Mayne Pharma’s agreement to the Agreed Reduction, HPPI, HPLLC, FEO, and Virca each covenant and agree that he or it will not ▇▇▇ or otherwise assert any claim against Mayne Pharma or any of its Affiliates as result of Mayne Pharma’s exercise of its rights under this Article VIII or for any act or omission leading up to, causing, or contributing to the failure to satisfy any of the Performance Goals, other than acts or omissions constituting fraud or other willful misconduct.
8.5. No Restrictions. No Transfer under this Article VIII shall be subject to the provisions of Article II, Article IV (except that any Transfer under 8.2(b) shall be subject to Article IV), Article V, Article VI or Article VII.

The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of a provision contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement; but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of a provision, had never been contained herein, and such provisions or part reformed so that it would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.
11.3. Dispute Resolution.

(a) If there is a Dispute within the scope of this Section 11.3, and if any party to this Agreement is a party to another agreement that contains an arbitration, forum selection, or other dispute resolution provision that is different from or inconsistent with this Section 11.3 (“Other Dispute Resolution Provision”), then the Dispute shall be governed by this Section 11.3 and not by the Other Dispute Resolution Provision notwithstanding whether such other agreement was entered into after the Effective Date, except to the extent each of the parties hereto agrees in writing by express reference to this Section 11.3(a).
(b) In any Dispute, the arbitrator shall award to the prevailing party all of such party’s costs (including fees and costs of the arbitrator and AAA) and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith. As used herein, “attorneys’ fees” shall mean the full and actual costs of any legal services actually rendered in connection with the matters involved, calculated on the basis of the usual fee charged by the attorneys performing such services.
(c) If any party fails to perform a specific act required under this Agreement (including without limitation acts required to be performed under Article VIII of this Agreement) or under any of the other Transaction Documents, the party for whose benefit the act was to be taken will be irreparably harmed. Accordingly, in any Dispute, the arbitrator shall award specific performance, in addition to any other remedy available at law, in equity, or under the applicable AAA rules.
(d) This Agreement and all Disputes shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within such State, without regard to its conflict of law rules.
11.4. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf), or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
11.5. Amendments, Waivers and Consents. This Agreement may be amended and any provision of this Agreement may be waived with the prior written consent of HPPI, HPLLC and Mayne Pharma; provided, however, no such amendment shall be valid which adversely affects FEO and/or Virca without the additional written consent of FEO and/or Virca, whichever one or both are adversely affected. No waiver by any party shall be effective unless in writing and no such waiver shall extend to or affect any other obligation not expressly waived. No failure or delay on the part of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
11.6. Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and legatees.
