(iii)    For any Stock Election or Mixed Election as to a Stockholder’s Per Share Contingent Consideration, the portion of each Stockholder’s Per Share Contingent Consideration to be paid in shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Stock Election Contingent Portion”) will be that number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined in accordance with the applicable FDA Milestone CVR Agreement or Sales Milestone CVR Agreement, as the case may be.

(iv)    If a Stockholder other than a PSS Party (a “Non-Electing Stockholder”) fails to deliver to the Company a properly completed Election Form and duly executed Stockholder Agreement on or before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the date which is five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and such Non-Electing Stockholder’s Stockholder Agreement is not necessary to fulfill the condition set forth in Section 6.2(j), or Parent otherwise waives the condition set forth in Section 6.2(j) as to such Non-Electing Stockholder so that the Merger can be consummated, such Non-Electing Stockholder will be deemed to have made a Cash Election as to such Non-Electing Stockholder’s Per Share Closing Consideration.

(v)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or a CVR Agreement to the contrary, if an Unaffiliated Stockholder is unable to demonstrate, through the delivery of customary personal representations and certifications, to Parent’s

-10-

reasonable satisfaction prior to the Closing that such Stockholder is an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) as of the Closing, then, regardless of whether or not such Stockholder has made an Election or executed and delivered a Stockholder Agreement, such Stockholder will be deemed to have made a Cash Election as to such Stockholder’s Per Share Closing Consideration and Per Share Contingent Consideration (such Stockholder is referred to herein as an “Unaccredited Unaffiliated Stockholder”). Parent may rely on a Stockholder’s representation as to such Stockholder’s accredited investor status in the Stockholder Agreement, or such other customary evidence of accredited investor status as Parent shall determine in its reasonable discretion to be reliable. Each Non-Electing Stockholder will also be considered to be an Unaccredited Unaffiliated Stockholder for purposes of clause (vii) below unless Parent otherwise concludes to its reasonable satisfaction that such Non-Electing Stockholder is an Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder.

(vi)    The Company will prepare and deliver to Parent not more than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date a draft of a spreadsheet (the “Stockholder Spreadsheet”) indicating for each Stockholder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) the name and current address of such Stockholder, (ii) the number of shares of each class or series of Company Capital Stock held by such Stockholder (iii) such Stockholder’s Election (or, if a Non-Electing Stockholder, such Stockholder’s deemed Election) as to the Per Share Closing Consideration and Per Share Contingent Consideration, as of the Effective Time, and (iv) number of CVRs issuable to such Stockholder in the Merger; in each case as such Elections have been adjusted pursuant to Section 2.7(c)(vii) below, as applicable. Parent shall be given the opportunity to review and comment on the draft Stockholder Spreadsheet and discuss same with the Company. The Company will deliver the final Stockholder Spreadsheet to Parent in connection with the Closing.

(vii)    The aggregate amount of cash elected to be received by all Stockholders making (or being deemed to have made) Cash Elections and Mixed Elections for such Stockholder’s Per Share Closing Consideration is referred to herein as the “Aggregate Elected Cash Closing Merger Consideration.” Notwithstanding the Elections of all or any Stockholders, but subject to Section 2.7(c)(vii)(B), the Aggregate Elected Cash Closing Merger Consideration payable to Stockholders shall not exceed $85 million (the “Closing Cash Maximum”). If the Elections would cause the aggregate amount of Cash Closing Merger Consideration to exceed the Closing Cash Maximum, then the Aggregate Elected Cash Closing Merger Consideration will be deemed to equal the Closing Cash Maximum, and the Elections of all such Stockholders, and the amount of cash payable to each Stockholder making a Cash Election or Mixed Election for its Per Share Closing Consideration, will be adjusted as follows:

(A)    First, the Elections will be adjusted to assure that the Unaccredited Unaffiliated Stockholders receive only cash; and

(B)    Next, to the extent funds comprising the Closing Cash Maximum are available after giving effect to Section 2.7(c)(vii)(A), the Elections of the Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholders making Cash Elections and Mixed Elections will be adjusted by the Company in its judgment and reflected on the final Stockholder Spreadsheet so that the amount of cash payable to each such Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder

-11-

will be reduced on a pro rata basis based upon each such Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder’s relative cash Elections (i.e., each such Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder will receive an amount out of the Closing Cash Maximum not paid to the Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholders (the “Remaining Closing Cash Maximum”) equal to the product obtained by multiplying the Remaining Closing Cash Maximum by such Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder’s Cut Back Percentage); provided that any such Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholder making a Cash Election or Mixed Election shall not, giving effect to Section 2.7(c)(vii)(A) receive in cash an amount per share less than (1) $1.00 (even if the Remaining Closing Cash Maximum must be increased to achieve such result) or (2) if such Stockholder elected less than $1.00 of cash, such lesser amount. The portion of the Per Share Closing Consideration to be paid in shares of Parent Common Stock after giving effect to this Section 2.7(c)(viii)(B) shall increase the Stock Election Closing Portion. The Company’s determination of the adjustments to the Elections as described in this Section 2.7(c)(vii) and reflected in the final Stockholder Spreadsheet delivered to Parent at the Closing shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto and on the Stockholders absent manifest error.

(viii)    Each of the PSS Parties has agreed irrevocably to make, and shall be deemed to have made, a Stock Election with respect to all shares of Company Capital Stock held by any PSS Party for the Per Share Closing Consideration and the Per Share Contingent Consideration payable to the PSS Parties.

(d)    No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued as part of the Merger Consideration. In lieu of any such fractional share of Parent Common Stock, each holder of Company Common Stock otherwise entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock will be entitled to receive a cash payment in an amount, rounded down to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (i) such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by (ii) the Parent Stock Value. Such payment will be in addition to, and in no way affect, the Closing Cash Maximum.

(e)    At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Capital Stock thereafter on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of certificates representing shares of Company Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Company Capital Stock, except as provided in this Agreement or by applicable Law.

(f)    The shares of Parent Common Stock and CVRs to be issued as part of the Merger Consideration have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or any other federal or state securities or “blue-sky” laws and regulations, or the securities laws and regulations of any other jurisdiction, and will be subject to restrictions on transfer imposed by such laws and regulations.

The Parent’s assumption of each Company Option pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the holder of such Company Option executing and delivering to the Parent an Option Assumption Agreement in a form mutually agreed by the Parent and Company. Parent will reserve sufficient shares of Parent Common Stock for issuance under this Section 2.8(a).

(b)    Company Warrants. Each warrant to acquire shares of Company Common Stock (“Company Warrants”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, pursuant to a Warrant Assumption Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex VI (a “Warrant Assumption Agreement”), to be executed and delivered to the Company by each holder thereof, be assumed and converted at the Effective Time into a warrant to acquire the number of shares of Parent Common Stock specified in such Warrant Assumption Agreement at the exercise price specified in such Warrant Assumption Agreement (each, a “Parent Warrant”). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock offered to the holders of Company Warrants will be calculated by Parent, in its reasonable discretion, based on the per share value of the Merger Consideration exchanged for the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Merger and shall have an exercise price for such shares of Parent Common Stock based upon the relative value of the exercise price of such Company Warrants to the per share value of the Merger Consideration exchanged for the Company Common Stock pursuant to the Merger. If required, each such Company Warrant shall be amended to provide for the issuance of Parent Common Stock as contemplated by this Section 2.8(b).

2.9.    Withholding Rights; Deductions from Merger Consideration. Each of the Surviving Entity and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment to any Person under this Agreement such amounts as it is required by Law to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment or any other Tax withholding obligation with respect to the Merger Consideration. To the extent that amounts are so

-13-

withheld or deducted by the Surviving Entity or by Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Entity or by Parent, as the case may be. Parent or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall pay over to the appropriate Governmental Entity all amounts withheld under this Section 2.9.

2.10.    Dissenting Shares.

(a)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any shares of Company Capital Stock held by a Stockholder who demands and perfects appraisal rights for such shares in accordance with the DGCL and who, as of the Effective Time, has not effectively withdrawn or lost such appraisal rights (collectively, “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7, but the holder thereof shall only be entitled to such rights as are granted by the DGCL.

(b)    If any Stockholder who holds Dissenting Shares as of the Effective Time effectively withdraws or loses (through passage of time, failure to demand or perfect, or otherwise) the right to demand and perfect appraisal rights under the DGCL, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder’s shares that were Dissenting Shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration pursuant to and subject to Section 2.7 without interest thereon upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares.

(c)    The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt written notice of any demands for appraisal of any shares of Company Capital Stock, withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments or notices served pursuant to the DGCL on the Company and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, voluntarily make or agree to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Capital Stock, or settle or offer to settle any such demands.

2.11.    Surrender of Certificates and Payment.

(a)    Payments Administrator. From and after the Effective Time, Parent and Company hereby appoint Acquiom Clearinghouse LLC to act as payments administrator (the “Payments Administrator”) pursuant to the Payments Agreement in effecting the payment of the applicable Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement. Prior to or at the Effective Time, Parent will deposit with the Payments Administrator such amount of cash and such number of shares of Parent Common Stock that, in the aggregate, is sufficient to pay all Stockholders the Per Share Closing Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.11.

(b)    Exchange Procedures and Payment. With the delivery to the Stockholders of the Stockholder Agreement and Election forms, the Company or the Payments Administrator will also send to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (the “Certificates”) representing the outstanding shares of Company Capital Stock forms of (i) a letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) which shall specify

-14-

that delivery of Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Payments Administrator at Closing and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Company and Parent may agree and shall contain a form of affidavit meeting the requirements of Section 2.11(c), (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the amount of the Merger Consideration payable in exchange therefore, and (iii) any applicable notice required by the DGCL in connection with the actions taken by the Stockholders or dissenters’ rights. The Letter of Transmittal shall indicate, among other things, that applicable withholding Taxes with respect to payments on account of shares of Company Capital Stock that were obtained upon the exercise of Company Stock Rights will be withheld, if required, from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable to each holder thereof in connection with the Merger and that other amounts may be withheld from any Stockholder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As promptly as is practicable following the Effective Time, and upon delivery to the Payments Administrator of a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal, together with surrender of a Certificate (or Certificates) for cancellation (or an affidavit pursuant to Section 2.11(c)), the Payments Administrator shall deliver to each Stockholder (A) the portion of the Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.7, and (B) a certificates or certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock payable at the Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.7. The Certificate(s) so surrendered shall be canceled. Following the Effective Time, until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate that, prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Company Capital Stock will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence only the right to receive the portion of Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.7.

(c)    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Payments Administrator shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the Merger Consideration required pursuant to Section 2.7; provided, that Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to provide an indemnity reasonably acceptable to Parent against any claim that may be made against Parent or the Surviving Entity with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.12.    Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Entity with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of Parent, the Company and Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action.

2.13.    No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Surviving Entity nor any party hereto shall be liable for any amount properly paid to a public official in compliance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

2.14.    Tax-Free Reorganization. The parties intend that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the Code and will

-15-

report the Merger for federal and applicable state income tax purposes consistent (and take no tax reporting position inconsistent) with such treatment. No party has any plan or intention to take any action that would be reasonably likely to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the CVR Agreements or any Elections made pursuant to Election Forms, the allocation as among cash and Parent Stock of each Milestone Payment payable to Accredited Unaffiliated Stockholders shall be adjusted, by decreasing the cash portion and correspondingly increasing the portion paid in Parent Stock, if and to the extent necessary to assure that the Stockholders receive sufficient voting stock of Parent such that, when aggregated with the Parent voting stock issued in connection with the Closing and any Milestone Payment previously made, the amount of Parent voting stock is not less than the minimum amount of such voting stock necessary to satisfy the requirements for qualification as a reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1)(A) and 368(a)(2)(E) of the Code.

For purposes of determining Indemnifiable Losses, the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Article III of this Agreement and the covenants of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation by or on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub, and the effectiveness of the Merger, and shall terminate at 11:59 P.M. Pacific time on the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (such date, the “Expiration Date”), except with respect to any representation as to which Parent shall have provided written notice of an indemnification claim to the Stockholder Representative prior to such termination as set forth herein.

7.2.    Indemnifiable Losses. The Indemnifiable Losses shall consist of any Losses resulting from or arising out of the following:

(a)     the failure of any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Article III of this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, or, with respect to any such representation or warranty that addresses matters only as of a particular date, the failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct as of such particular date;

(b)     any failure by the Company to fully perform, fulfill or comply with any covenant set forth herein;

(c)     any Dissenting Share Payments;

(d)     any claims by any current or former holder of Company Capital Stock, Company Options, Company Warrants or other Company Stock Rights relating to or arising out of the Merger, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby, including the allocation of the Merger Consideration, or any Person’s status as an equity holder or ownership of equity interests in the Company at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, whether for breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise; and

(e)     any claim made by any Stockholder based upon any alleged breach of fiduciary or other duty by any officer, director or stockholder of the Company in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any claims by any officer, director or Stockholder to indemnification by the Company or the Surviving Entity in the Merger with respect to any such claims.

7.3.    Limitations.

(a)     The liability of the Unaffiliated Stockholders for Indemnifiable Losses under this Article VII shall be satisfied solely by deduction and set-off of amounts which may otherwise be payable to the Unaffiliated Stockholders in connection with the

-36-

achievement of the FDA Milestone (as defined in the FDA Milestone CVR Agreement and the Unaccredited CVR Agreement). The right of Parent to set-off such liability herein shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Indemnitees after the Closing with respect to this Article VII; provided, that Parent may seek equitable relief, including the remedies of specific performance and injunction, with respect to the breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed by the Company.

(b)     (ii)No claim may be made by any Parent Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII unless and until (A) the amount of Indemnifiable Losses related to any individual claim exceeds $150,000 (provided that such claims shall be aggregated for the purposes of determining whether the Deductible has been reached); and (B) the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Losses exceeds an amount equal to $1,000,000 (the “Deductible”), at which point the Unaffiliated Stockholders shall be liable for only those Indemnifiable Losses in excess of the Deductible.

(c)     The indemnification obligations of the Unaffiliated Stockholders under this Agreement are subject to the following limitations:

(i)    The FDA Milestone Payment payable to Unaffiliated Stockholders shall serve as the sole and exclusive source of funding for any Indemnifiable Losses under this Agreement; and

(ii)    The Unaffiliated Stockholders shall not be required to indemnify any Parent Indemnitees for amounts in the aggregate in excess of an amount equal to $16,000,000.

(d)     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.3, the limitations of this Section 7.3 shall not apply with respect to a claim of fraud or intentional misrepresentation against the Person who committed such fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(e)     The amount of any Indemnifiable Losses shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the Parent Indemnitee under third party insurance policies with respect to such Indemnifiable Losses.

(f)    The provisions of this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any Parent Indemnitee from and after the Effective Time for any claims arising under this Agreement and the CVR Agreements.

7.4.    Calculation of Indemnifiable Losses; No Investigation. Solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss (but not for purposes of determining whether there has been any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant), any qualifications in the representations, warranties and covenants herein with respect to materiality, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar terms shall be disregarded and will not have any effect with respect to the calculation of the amount of any Indemnifiable Losses attributable to a breach of any such representation, warranty or covenant. The right of Parent Indemnitees to and the determination of the amount of any Indemnifiable Losses will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being

-37-

acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, by or on behalf of Parent.

7.5.    Third-Party Claims.

(a)     Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim (a “Third-Party Claim”) against a Parent Indemnitee that, in the judgment of Parent, may result in the incurrence of Indemnifiable Losses for which such Parent Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII, Parent shall deliver to the Stockholder Representative a written notice describing in reasonable detail such Third-Party Claim (“Claim Notice”) and specifying the specific representation, warranty or covenant alleged to have been breached and estimating the amount of Indemnifiable Losses; provided, that no delay in notifying the Stockholder Representative will relieve the Unaffiliated Stockholders of any liability or obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Unaffiliated Stockholders have been prejudiced thereby, and then only to such extent. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, indemnification shall not be available if the Claim Notice has not been delivered prior to the Expiration Date.

(b)     If the Stockholder Representative acknowledges in writing the obligation of the Unaffiliated Stockholders to indemnify the Parent Indemnitees against any Indemnifiable Losses that may result from such Third-Party Claim, then the Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim through counsel of its choice (such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to the Parent Indemnitee) if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Parent Indemnitee within 30 days of the receipt of Claim Notice; provided, that the Stockholder Representative shall not have the right to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim if (A) any such claim seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary losses, any injunctive or other equitable relief, (B) there is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate (in the judgment of the Parent Indemnitee in its reasonable discretion) for the same counsel to represent both the Parent Indemnitee and the Stockholder Representative, or (iii) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third-Party Claim may establish (in the good faith judgment of the Parent Indemnitee) a precedential custom or practice adverse to the business interests of the Parent Indemnitee; provided further, that if by reason of the Third-Party Claim a lien, attachment, garnishment, execution or other encumbrance is placed upon any of the property or assets of such Parent Indemnitee, the Stockholder Representative, if it desires to exercise its right to assume such defense of the Third-Party Claim, must agree to furnish a satisfactory indemnity bond to obtain the prompt release of such lien, attachment, garnishment, execution or other encumbrance. If the Stockholder Representative assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (ii), it will conduct the defense actively, diligently and at its own expense, and it will agree that the Unaffiliated Stockholders shall hold all Parent Indemnitees harmless from and against all Losses caused by or arising out of any settlement thereof. The Parent Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Stockholder Representative in such defense and make available to the Stockholder Representative, at the Unaffiliated Stockholders’ expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Parent Indemnitee’s possession or under the Parent Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by the Stockholder Representative. Except with the written consent of the Parent Indemnitee (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Stockholder Representative will not, in the defense of a Third-Party Claim, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (1) which does not

-38-

include as an unconditional term thereof the giving to the Parent Indemnitee by the third party of a release from all liability with respect to such suit, claim, action, or proceeding; and (2) unless there is no finding or admission of (A) any violation of law by the Parent Indemnitee (or any Affiliate thereof), (B) any liability on the part of the Parent Indemnitee (or any Affiliate thereof) or (C) any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims of a similar nature that may be made by the same third party against the Parent Indemnitee (or any Affiliate thereof).

(c)     In the event that the Stockholder Representative fails or elects not to assume the defense of a Parent Indemnitee against such Third-Party Claim which the Stockholder Representative had the right to assume pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Parent Indemnitee shall have the right to defend or prosecute such claim in any manner as it may reasonably deem appropriate and may settle such claim after giving written notice thereof to the Stockholder Representative and obtaining the Stockholder Representative’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) to the terms of the settlement.

(d)     In the event that the Stockholder Representative is not entitled to assume the defense of the Parent Indemnitee against such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 7.5(b) above, the Parent Indemnitee shall have the right, at the expense of the Unaffiliated Stockholders, to defend or prosecute such claim and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate after giving written notice thereof to the Stockholder Representative. In such case, the Parent Indemnitee shall conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently, and the Stockholder Representative shall cooperate with the Parent Indemnitee in such defense and make available to the Parent Indemnitee all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Stockholder Representative’s possession or under the Stockholder Representative’s control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by the Parent Indemnitee. The Parent Indemnitee may settle such claim after giving written notice thereof to the Stockholder Representative and obtaining the Stockholder Representative’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) to the terms of the settlement.

7.6.    Direct Claims. Any claim by a Parent Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) will be asserted by giving the Stockholder Representative written notice thereof promptly after Parent Indemnitee becomes aware of any fact, condition or event giving rise to Indemnifiable Losses for which indemnification may be sought. Such notice (as well as any notice of a Third-Party Claim) by the Parent Indemnitee will describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail (specifying the representation, warranty or covenant alleged to have been breached), will include copies of all available material written evidence thereof, and will indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of Indemnifiable Losses that has been or may be sustained by the Parent Indemnitee. The Stockholder Representative will have a period of twenty (20) Business Days within which to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Stockholder Representative notifies the Parent Indemnitee that it does not dispute the claim described in such Direct Claim notice or fails to respond within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of such Claim Notice, the Indemnifiable Losses identified in the Direct Claim notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Unaffiliated Stockholders named thereunder. If the Stockholder Representative disputes liability with respect to such Direct Claim or the

-39-

estimated amount of such Indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this Article VII, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, that if such dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) Business Days following receipt of such Direct Claim notice, then the Stockholder Representative and the Parent Indemnitee may seek legal redress in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

7.7.    Recovery of Losses. The aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Losses which are the subject of any and all Third Party Claims and Direct Claims and determined pursuant to this Article VII, subject to the limitations of Section 7.3, is referred to as the “Indemnification Amount.” As provided in Section 7.3(c)(i), the Indemnification Amount when finally determined to be owing by the Unaffiliated Stockholders will be set off against and deducted from any FDA Milestone Payment otherwise payable to the Unaffiliated Stockholders, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.3.

7.8.    Waiver of Claims Against Surviving Entity. No Unaffiliated Stockholder, as a former stockholder of the Company or otherwise, has (and each Unaffiliated Stockholder, as a former stockholder of the Company or otherwise, waives) any right of indemnification or contribution against the Surviving Entity with respect to any breach by any Unaffiliated Stockholder, as a former stockholder of the Company or otherwise, or the Company of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or otherwise, whether by virtue of any contractual or statutory right of indemnity or otherwise, and all claims to the contrary are hereby waived and released. In addition, each Unaffiliated Stockholder, as a former stockholder of the Company or otherwise, hereby agrees that such Unaffiliated Stockholder, as a former stockholder of the Company or otherwise, will not make any claim for indemnification against the Surviving Entity by reason of the fact that such Unaffiliated Stockholder was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company or was serving at the request of the Company as a partner, trustee, director, officer, employee, or agent of another Person (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, losses, expenses, or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any statute, charter document, bylaw, agreement, or otherwise) to the extent that any action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand brought against such Unaffiliated Stockholder relates to an Indemnifiable Loss described herein (whether such action, suit, proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand is pursuant to this Agreement, applicable law, or otherwise).

7.9.    Stockholder Representative; Power of Attorney.

(a)    Appointment. By virtue of the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the Stockholders, each Unaffiliated Stockholder (regardless of whether or not such Stockholder votes in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger, whether at a meeting or by written consent in lieu thereof), and whether or not such Stockholder has executed and delivered a Stockholder Agreement, hereby appoints, as of the date of the Closing, Shareholder Representative Services LLC (together with its permitted successors, the “Stockholder Representative”), as his, her or its true and lawful representative, agent and attorney-in-fact to enter into any Related Agreement and any transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the CVR Agreements, and to: (i) give and accept notices and communications from Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnified Party) after the Effective Time relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions and other matters contemplated hereby (except to

-40-

the extent that this Agreement expressly contemplates that any such notice or communication shall be given or received by such Stockholders individually); (ii) authorize Parent to reduce any payment in respect of the Unaccredited CVR Agreement and/or the FDA Milestone CVR Agreement in satisfaction of claims asserted by Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Indemnitee, including by not objecting to claims thereto); (iii) object to any claims by Parent to reduce any payment under the Unaccredited CVR Agreement and/or the FDA Milestone CVR Agreement; (iv) consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and agree to arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims; (v) assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and agree to arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, any other claim by any Indemnitee against any such Stockholder or by any such Unaffiliated Stockholder against any Indemnitee or any dispute between any Indemnitee and any such Unaffiliated Stockholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (vi) amend this Agreement or any other Related Agreement or other agreement referred to herein or contemplated hereby; and (vii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance; provided that the Stockholder Representative will comply with the provisions of Section 7.9(b). The Stockholder Representative shall have the sole and exclusive right on behalf of each Unaffiliated Stockholder with respect to the foregoing actions. Any such actions taken, exercises of rights, power or authority, and any decision or determination made by the Stockholder Representative, shall be absolutely and irrevocably binding on each Unaffiliated Stockholder as if such Unaffiliated Stockholder personally had taken such action, exercised such rights, power or authority or made such decision or determination in such Unaffiliated Stockholder’s individual capacity, and no Unaffiliated Stockholder shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. Any action required to be taken by the Unaffiliated Stockholders hereunder or any action that the Unaffiliated Stockholders, at their election, have the right to take hereunder, shall be taken only by the Stockholder Representative and no Unaffiliated Stockholder acting on its own shall be entitled to take any such action.

(b)    Advisory Committee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the Contrary, the Stockholder Representative agrees not to take any material action hereunder or under any of the CVR Agreements (including, without limitation, sending or receiving notices hereunder or thereunder or binding any Unaffiliated Stockholder to any agreement or course of action hereunder or thereunder) without approval of the Advisory Committee (acting via a majority of the members thereof). The Stockholder Representative shall provide copies of any and all material notices received by it under this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements to the Advisory Committee and shall keep all members of the Advisory Committee informed of all material actions related to or undertaken in connection with this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements. If any member of the Advisory Committee resigns, dies or becomes legally incapacitated, then a majority of the Unaffiliated Stockholders, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares, may promptly designate in writing to Buyer and the Stockholder Representative a single individual or entity to fill such Advisory Committee vacancy. Advisory Committee Members shall not have any liability to the Unaffiliated Stockholders for any act done or omitted hereunder or under any Related Agreements as an Advisory Committee Member other than for acts of willful misconduct or bad faith. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.9(b), after Closing, Parent shall be

-41-

entitled to deal exclusively with the Stockholder Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement and the CVR Agreements and shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever, including any evidence of approval or lack thereof by the Advisory Committee) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Unaffiliated Stockholder by the Stockholder Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Unaffiliated Stockholder by the Stockholder Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person.

(c)    Acceptance. The Stockholder Representative hereby accepts its appointment as Stockholder Representative.

(d)    Replacement. The Person serving as the Stockholder Representative may resign at any time, or may be replaced from time to time by majority vote of the Unaffiliated Stockholders, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares, upon not less than 10 days’ prior written notice to Parent. No bond shall be required of the Stockholder Representative. After the Closing, notices or communications to or from the Stockholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Unaffiliated Stockholders.

(e)    No Liability; Indemnification. The Stockholder Representative will incur no liability of any kind with respect to any action or omission by the Stockholder Representative in connection with its services pursuant to this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, except in the event of liability directly resulting from the Stockholder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Stockholder Representative shall not be liable for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of counsel. The Unaffiliated Stockholders will, severally (based on such Unaffiliated Stockholder’s respective Indemnification Percentage compared to the aggregate of the Indemnification Percentages of all Unaffiliated Stockholders) and not jointly, in the amount not to exceed the portion of the Merger Consideration actually paid to such Unaffiliated Stockholder, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Stockholder Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Stockholder Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Stockholder Representative, the Stockholder Representative will reimburse the Unaffiliated Stockholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Stockholder Representative by the Unaffiliated Stockholders, any such Representative Losses may be recovered by the Stockholder Representative from (i) the funds in the Expense Fund and (ii) any other amounts become distributable to the Unaffiliated Stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that while this section allows the Stockholder Representative to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Unaffiliated Stockholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred, nor does it prevent the Stockholder Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Stockholder

-42-

Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Unaffiliated Stockholders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of the Unaffiliated Stockholders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Stockholder Representative under this section. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Stockholder Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(f)    Access to Information. The Stockholder Representative shall have reasonable access to relevant information about the Company and the reasonable assistance of the Company’s employees for purposes of performing its duties and exercising his rights hereunder; provided that the Stockholder Representative shall treat confidentially and not disclose any nonpublic information from or about the Company to anyone (except on a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat such information confidentially).

(g)    Notice. After the Closing, any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Stockholder Representative shall constitute a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of all the Unaffiliated Stockholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Unaffiliated Stockholder; and each Indemnitee shall be entitled to rely upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every such Stockholder. Each Indemnitee is hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative.

(h)    Role of Stockholder Representative; No Contribution. Without limiting the generality or effect of Section 7.9(a), any claims or disputes between or among any Indemnitee, the Stockholder Representative and/or any one or more of the Unaffiliated Stockholders relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall in the case of any claim or dispute asserted by or against or involving any such Unaffiliated Stockholder (other than any claim against or dispute with the Stockholder Representative), be asserted or otherwise addressed solely by the Stockholder Representative on behalf of such Unaffiliated Stockholder (and not by such Unaffiliated Stockholder acting on its own behalf). Each Unaffiliated Stockholder waives, and acknowledges and agrees that he shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Surviving Entity in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which he may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

7.10.    No Subrogation. Following the Closing, no Unaffiliated Stockholder shall have any right of indemnification, contribution or subrogation against the Company with respect to any indemnification made by or on behalf of any Stockholder under this Article VII.

-43-

ARTICLE VIII

(a)    by written agreement of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub;

(b)    by either Parent or the Company if the Closing Date has not occurred by June 30, 2017 (the “Termination Date”); provided, that any party not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement may by notice to the other parties extend the Termination Date by up to thirty (30) days; and provided further that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation hereunder has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing Date to occur on or before the Termination Date and such action or failure constitutes a breach of this Agreement;

(c)    by Parent if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of the Company and as a result of such breach the conditions set forth in Section 6.2(a) or 6.2(b), as the case may be, would not then be satisfied; provided, that if such breach is curable by the Company prior to the Termination Date through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, then Parent may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(c) prior to the earlier of the Termination Date or the date that is 30 days following the Company’s receipt of written notice from Parent of such breach, it being understood that Parent may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if such breach by the Company is cured within such 30 day period so that the conditions would then be satisfied; or

(d)    by the Company if it is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of Parent or Merger Sub and as a result of such breach the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b), as the case may be, would not then be satisfied; provided, that if such breach is curable by Parent prior to the Termination Date through the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts, then the Company may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d) prior to the earlier of the Termination Date or the date that is 30 days following Parent’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach, it being understood that the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if such breach by Parent is cured within such 30-day period so that the conditions would then be satisfied.

-44-

Agreement. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the parties contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement.

8.3.    Amendment. Except as is otherwise required by applicable Law, prior to the Closing this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company. Except as is otherwise required by applicable Law, after the Closing this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed by Parent, the Surviving Entity and the Stockholder Representative.
