effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets, properties or business or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary, taken as a whole, or (ii) impair in any material respect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate any transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (any such effect as described in clauses (i) or (ii), a “Material Adverse Effect”).

None of the Company’s active and registered Intellectual Property have expired or terminated, or, by the terms and conditions thereof, will expire or terminate within two years from the date of the Agreement. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its Subsidiaries of, and, to the Company’s knowledge, neither the Company, any Subsidiary nor their respective business or operations (including products sold thereby) are, or have been in the past three years, infringing, any Intellectual Property of others, or of any such development of similar or identical trade secrets or technical information by others with respect to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ Intellectual Property, and there is no claim, action or proceeding being made or brought against, or to the Company’s knowledge, being threatened against, the Company or its Subsidiaries regarding Intellectual Property.
3.10 The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) are, and have been in the last three years, in material compliance with any and all applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations, including those administered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or similar governmental body and those relating to the protection of human health and safety or the environment and with respect to hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (“Environmental Laws”), (ii) have received and hold all material permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable laws (including Environmental Laws) to conduct their respective businesses and (iii) are, and have been in the last three years in material compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval.

3.12 The Company and each Subsidiary carries, or is covered by, insurance (including directors’ and officers’ liability insurance) provided by recognized, financially sound and reputable institutions with policies in such amounts and covering such risks as is adequate for the conduct of their respective businesses and the value of its properties and as is customary for companies engaged in similar businesses in similar industries.

3.20 The Board of Directors of the Company has unanimously approved the execution of this Agreement, the Warrant Amendment and the Warrants and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and no approval of the stockholders of the Company is required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Warrant Amendment or the Warrants or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than the requirement to obtain Stockholder Approval of the Subsequent Closing. Each director and executive officer of the Company intends, to the knowledge of the Company, to vote all of the shares of capital stock of the Company owned thereby in favor of all matters to be presented to the stockholders of the Company in connection with seeking the Stockholder Approval. Without limiting the foregoing, the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company constitutes approval for purposes of any anti-takeover statute or similar statute or regulation that is or may become applicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

At the Subsequent Closing, (a) the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver to each Investor the number of Subsequent Closing Shares set forth on the Signature Page of such Investor registered in the name of such Investor or, if so indicated on the Investor Questionnaire of such Investor attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the name of a nominee designated by such Investor, (b) the Company shall cause to be delivered to such Investor a Subsequent Closing Warrant for the number of Subsequent Closing Warrant Shares set forth on the Signature Page of such Investor and (c) the aggregate purchase price for the Subsequent Closing Shares and the Subsequent Closing Warrants being purchased by such Investor at such Subsequent Closing as set forth on the Signature Page of such Investor will be delivered by or on behalf of such Investor to the Company.

If the Subsequent Closing has not occurred on or prior to April 29, 2016 (which date may be extended in the sole discretion of the Company or the Investors to no later May 31, 2016 but only if the conditions to the Subsequent Closing set forth in Section 4.2(c) and Section 4.2(d) shall not have been satisfied or waived on or prior to April 29, 2016, provided that if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to April 29, 2016 and the reason therefor is the breach by any party of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder, the breaching party shall not have the right to exercise the extension right described in this sentence), no Subsequent Closing shall occur hereunder and the Company and the Investors shall be relieved of all obligations in respect thereof, without limitation of any liability of any such party for any breach of any terms hereof that relate thereto.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Investors.
Each Investor severally (as to itself and not the other Investor) acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company that:
5.1 Such Investor (a) is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make decisions with respect to, investments in securities representing an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Securities, including investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable companies, (b) has answered all questions on the Signature Page and the Investor Questionnaire and the answers thereto are true and correct as of the date hereof and will be true and correct as of the Closing Date and (c) in connection with its decision to purchase the Shares and the Warrants set forth on the Signature Page, has received (or had full access to) and is relying only upon the Disclosure Package and the documents incorporated by reference therein and the Offering Information and the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the Warrant.
5.2 (a) Such Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and (b) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Investor enforceable against such Investor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except as to the enforceability of any rights to indemnification or contribution that may be violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule or regulation (including any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation).
5.3 Such Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, the Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, the Offering Information or any other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares and the Warrants constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors and made such investigation as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Shares and Warrants. Such Investor also understands that there is no established public trading market for the Warrants being offered in the Offering, and that the Company does not expect such a market to develop. In addition, the Company does not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any securities exchange or other trading market. Such Investor understands that without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.
5.4 Since December 1, 2015, representing the date at which the Company first contacted such Investor about the Offering, such Investor has not disclosed any information regarding the Offering to any third parties (other than its employees or the employees of its affiliates or their respective legal, accounting and other advisors) and has not engaged in any purchases or sales of the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales (as defined herein) involving the Company’s securities). Such Investor covenants that it will not engage in any purchases or sales of the securities of the Company (including Short Sales), other than the purchases of the Shares and the Warrants as contemplated hereby, prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed (it being understood and agreed that such transactions shall be publicly disclosed no later than one business day following the execution of this Agreement by all parties hereto). Such Investor agrees that it will not use any of the Securities acquired pursuant to this Agreement to cover any short position in the Common Stock if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities laws. For purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, whether or not against the box, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sales contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.
6. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company and the Investors herein will survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Investors of the Shares and Warrants being purchased and the payment therefor at each Closing.

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective until all shares subject thereto have been sold or otherwise disposed of by the Investors. If the Investors shall elect for any such registration to be an underwritten offering, the Company shall provide such assistance in connection therewith as the Investors may reasonably request, including allowing the underwriters to conduct due diligence and causing the accountants and counsel to the Company to cooperate in connection therewith, including by providing customary comfort letters and legal opinions The requirements under this Section 15.1 will terminate when upon the Investors and their affiliates owning less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (assuming conversion of all convertible securities, including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants, held by the Investors and their affiliates).
15.2 The Company shall indemnify each Investor and, as applicable, each of its officers, affiliates, directors, partners, beneficiaries, members, and each person controlling each such Investor within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, with respect to each registration effected pursuant to the terms hereof, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document utilized in connection with any such registration, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, and will reimburse each such Investor and, as applicable, each of its affiliates, officers, directors, partners, beneficiaries, and members, and each person controlling each such Investor within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each

16. Resale of Securities.

17. Interim Covenants; Other Matters
17.1 During the period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of the (i) termination of this Agreement, and (ii) the Subsequent Closing, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of the Investors, (1) issue, grant, deliver or sell, or authorize the issuance, grant, delivery or sale of, or purchase, repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, or propose the purchase, repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of, any equity or equity-linked securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any securities or rights convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), except that nothing contained in this Section 17.1 shall prohibit the issuance of any of the foregoing to, or the repurchase of any of the foregoing from, employees, consultants or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (solely in the case of repurchases, in connection with the cessation of service to the Company or its Subsidiaries) pursuant to the Company’s equity plans in existence as of the date hereof and described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (2) adopt or propose any change in its Articles of Incorporation, By-laws or comparable organizational documents, (3) make any declaration, set aside or payment of any dividend or other distribution with respect to any capital stock thereof, (4) incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money or otherwise if the principal amount of all such indebtedness so incurred, assumed or guaranteed would exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate, or (5) otherwise take any action that would have, or be reasonably likely to have, an adverse effect on the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

18. Additional Director.
18.1 So long as the Investors and their controlled affiliates beneficially own (as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act but assuming that any convertible securities (including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants) owned by the Investors or any controlled affiliate thereof are immediately exercisable) shares of Common Stock that satisfies the Ownership Threshold, the Investors will have the right, at any time on or after the First Closing Date, to direct the Company to appoint one person (the “Sarissa Designee”) to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company reasonably acceptable to the Board, it being understood and agreed that upon the exercise by the Investors of the right to appoint the Sarissa Designee, such Sarissa Designee shall be placed in the class of directors chosen by the Investors (so long as the Company maintains a staggered Board). Upon the exercise by the Investors of their rights set forth in this Section 18, the Company shall promptly thereafter expand the size of the Board by one seat and appoint the Sarissa Designee to fill the resulting vacancy. If, at any time following the appointment of any Sarissa Designee to the Board, such Sarissa Designee shall resign therefrom or be unable to serve on the Board, then the Investors, so long as they and their controlled affiliates beneficially own (as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act but assuming that any convertible securities (including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants) owned by the Investors or any controlled affiliate thereof are immediately exercisable) shares of Common Stock that satisfies the Ownership Threshold shall have the right to designate a replacement therefor and promptly
following such designation, the Company shall cause such person to become a member of the Board as the Sarissa Designee. For purposes hereof, the “Ownership Threshold” will be deemed satisfied so long as the Investors and their controlled affiliates beneficially own (as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act but assuming that any convertible securities (including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants) have been converted into Common Stock) at least 4,635,878 shares of Common Stock (which amount shall be subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations or similar actions).
18.2 The Sarissa Designee agrees to submit (to the extent not already submitted) to the Company a fully completed copy of the Company’s standard directors’ and officers’ questionnaire, conflict of interest questionnaire, and other reasonable and customary director onboarding documentation required by the Company in connection with the appointment or election of a new director as soon as practicable on or after the exercise by Sarissa of its rights set forth in this Section 18 and to be governed by the same obligations regarding conflicts of interest, fiduciary duties, trading and disclosure policies and other governance guidelines as are applicable to all other directors of the Company. As a condition to the Sarissa Designee’s appointment to the Board and nomination at any annual meeting, the Investors agree to provide to the Company, and request that the Sarissa Designee provide to the Company, such information as is required to be disclosed in proxy statements under applicable law or would otherwise be necessary for inclusion of the Sarissa Designee in connection with the appointment or election of a member of the Board.
18.3 The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the election of the Sarissa Designee so nominated by the Investors at each meeting of the stockholders at which such election is considered (including listing the Sarissa Designee in the proxy statement and proxy card prepared, filed and delivered in connection with such meeting and recommending that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the election of the Sarissa Designee (along with all other Company nominees) and otherwise supporting the Sarissa Designee for election in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees).
18.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time after the date hereof, the Investors (together with its controlled affiliates) cease to beneficially own (as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act but assuming that any convertible securities (including the Warrants) owned by the Investors or any controlled affiliate thereof are immediately exercisable) shares of Common Stock that satisfies the Ownership Threshold, then the Sarissa Designee shall promptly tender his resignation from the Board and any committee of the Board on which he is a member and the Company shall have no further obligations under this Section 18.
19. Preemptive Rights.
19.1 In the event that the Company determines to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities or instruments convertible into shares of Common Stock (“Equity Securities”), other than Excluded Securities (as defined below) (such Equity Securities excluding Excluded Securities, the “Proposed Securities”), the Company shall provide written notice (a “Preemptive Rights Notice”) thereof to the Investors so long as the Investors (together with its controlled affiliates) beneficially own (as set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act but assuming that any convertible securities (including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants) owned by the Investors or any controlled affiliate thereof are immediately exercisable) shares of Common Stock that satisfies the Ownership Threshold. The Preemptive Rights Notice must be delivered to the Investors at least five (5) business days prior to the date of such issuance and shall set forth a summary of the material terms of such Proposed Securities, including the amount of Proposed Securities to be issued, the purchase price therefor and the date of issuance of such Proposed Securities. Each Investor shall have the right (a “Preemptive Right”) to purchase a portion (the “Pro Rata Portion”) of the Proposed Securities equal to up to the number of Proposed Securities proposed to be issued multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Investor at the time of the Preemptive Rights Notice (assuming, for these purposes, the conversion or exercise of any securities of the Company that are convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants), and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are issued and outstanding as of the date of the Preemptive Rights Notice. Each Investor that desires to exercise its Preemptive Rights hereunder must exercise such Preemptive Right within five (5) business days after receipt of the Preemptive Rights Notice from the Company, and any failure to exercise such Preemptive Right within such time period shall be deemed a waiver of the Preemptive Right in respect of the Proposed Securities referred to in the related Preemptive Rights Notice.
19.2 Upon the expiration of the offering periods described above, the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Investors have not elected to purchase during the ninety (90) days following such expiration on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to such Investors. Any Proposed Securities that the Investors do not elect to purchase and that are offered or sold by the Company after such ninety (90)-day period must be reoffered to the Investors pursuant to the terms hereof.
19.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 19, the Company may offer and sell Proposed Securities without prior notice to the Investors if the Company has been advised by an investment bank, underwriter, placement agent or other financial advisor that compliance with the terms of Section 19.1 could reasonably be expected to jeopardize the ability of the Company to consummate such offering; provided, however, that, subject to the rules and regulations of the Commission and the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, immediately following the consummation of the applicable offering, each Investor shall have the right thereafter to purchase up to a number of Proposed Securities such that the Investors own the same percentage of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company that they (and their affiliates) owned immediately prior to such offering giving rise to the Preemptive Rights described herein (assuming any convertible securities held by the Investors and their affiliates (including the Warrants and the Prior Warrants) have been exercised) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the applicable offering and under the same conditions and within the timeframe set forth in Section 19.1.
19.4 For purposes hereof, “Excluded Securities” means (a) any shares of capital stock of the Company issued as a dividend or distribution on any outstanding shares of capital stock thereof, (b) any shares of Common Stock or options or other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock issued or granted to employees, service providers, officers, directors, managers of, or contractors, consultants or advisors to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to incentive, service or employment agreements, equity purchase or equity option plans, equity bonuses or awards, warrants, contracts or other arrangements that are approved by the Board, (c) any shares of capital stock issued by the Company upon the exercise or conversion of warrants to purchase capital stock of the Company or other convertible securities (i) outstanding immediately prior to the First Closing or (ii) issued after the First Closing pursuant to an exemption from this Section 19 or otherwise in compliance with this Section 19, (d) any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock that are issued in connection with any bona fide third party debt financing of the Company that is approved by the Board, and (e) any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock that are issued as consideration (and not financing) pursuant to the acquisition of another person that is not an affiliated of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or a license, collaboration, distribution or similar commercial arrangement entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with a person that is not an affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and that is approved by the Board (other than any such arrangement primarily for capital-raising purposes).
19.5 Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that such Investor’s execution of this Agreement shall serve as a waiver, in respect of the shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Investors pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Investors in accordance with the terms hereof, of the Preemptive Rights Notice requirement for the Preemptive Rights set forth and defined in the Subscription Agreement between the Company and the Investors dated February 10, 2015 (the “Prior Subscription Agreement”), and consents to the calculation of such Investor’s Pro Rata Portion (as defined in, and pursuant to the rights under, the Prior Subscription Agreement) of the Shares and Warrants being sold pursuant to this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements with the Other Investors, notwithstanding any requirements to the contrary in the Prior Subscription Agreement; provided that the foregoing waiver shall be void and of no further force or effect if the First Closing and the First Closing with the Other Investors shall not have been consummated on or before the second business day following the date hereof.
20. Termination of Covenants under Prior Subscription Agreement. Upon execution of this Agreement by the Company and the Investors, Sections 17, 18, and 19 of the Prior Subscription Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect.
21. Stockholder Approval.
21.1 The Company shall provide each stockholder entitled to vote at a special meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholder Meeting”), which shall be held as soon as reasonably possible following the mailing of the proxy statement to the stockholders of the Company in respect thereof (the “Proxy Statement”), but not later than three business days prior to April 29, 2016, unless such date is extended in the sole discretion of the Company or the Investors pursuant to Section 4.1(b), in which
case the Stockholder Meeting shall be held not later than three business days prior to May 31, 2016 (three business days prior to April 29, 2016 or May 31, 2016, as applicable, being referred to herein as the “Stockholder Meeting Outside Date”), a copy of the Proxy Statement, at the expense of the Company, soliciting each such stockholder’s affirmative vote at the Stockholder Meeting for approval of a proposal providing for issuance of the Subsequent Closing Shares and Subsequent Closing Warrants and such other matters relating thereto as the Investors may reasonably request, in each case in compliance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, the Bylaws of the Company and applicable law (collectively, the “Stockholder Approval”, and the date the Stockholder Approval is obtained, the “Stockholder Approval Date”). As reasonably promptly as practicable after execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than January 25, 2016, the Company shall, in consultation with the Investors, prepare and file with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the preliminary Proxy Statement and related proxy materials in compliance with Section 14 of the Exchange Act. As reasonably promptly as practicable after comments, if any, are received from the Commission thereon and after the furnishing by the Company and the Investors of all information required to be contained therein, the Company shall, in consultation with the Investors, prepare and the Company shall file any required amendments to the Proxy Statement with the Commission. The Company shall notify the Investors reasonably promptly of the receipt of any comments from the Commission or its staff and of any request by the Commission or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and shall consult with the Investors regarding, and supply the Investors with copies of, all correspondence between the Company or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the Commission or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement. Prior to filing or mailing the initial Proxy Statement or any proposed amendment of or supplement to the Proxy Statement, the Company shall provide the Investors a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document and shall incorporate therein any reasonable comments of the Investors thereto. The Company shall use its best efforts to have the Proxy Statement cleared by the Commission and shall thereafter mail to the stockholders of the Company as reasonably promptly as possible the Proxy Statement and all other proxy materials for the Stockholder Meeting.
21.2 The Company hereby covenants and agrees that (a) the Proxy Statement will, when filed, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and (b) none of the information included or incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date it is first mailed to the stockholders of the Company or at the time of the Stockholder Meeting or at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
21.3 The Company shall take, in accordance with applicable law and its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, all action necessary to convene the Stockholder Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable but no later than April 1, 2016 and to submit at the Stockholder Meeting for approval by the requisite vote of the stockholders of the Company the matters subject to Stockholder Approval. In connection with the Stockholder Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof, (i) the Board of
Directors shall recommend that its stockholders vote in favor of all matters submitted thereto as such meeting and (ii) neither the Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall withdraw or modify, or propose or resolve to withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to the Investors, such recommendation. The Company shall take all lawful action to solicit from the stockholders of the Company proxies in favor of the Stockholder Approval and take all other action reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of the stockholders that are required by the rules of Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and applicable law, including, if necessary or appropriate or if requested by the Investors, adjourning the Stockholder Meeting to solicit additional proxies. For the avoidance of doubt, if requested by the Investors and subject to compliance with applicable law, the Company shall adjourn or postpone the Stockholder Meeting, but no later than three business days prior to Stockholder Meeting Outside Date, if necessary to solicit additional proxies to allow for the matters subject to the Stockholder Meeting to be duly adopted and approved by the stockholders of the Company. The Company will enforce any and all voting agreements entered into by the Other Investors in respect of the matters subject to the Stockholder Meeting.
22. Voting Agreement. Each of the Investors agrees to vote all shares of voting capital stock of the Company (including but not limited to all shares of Common Stock) registered in its name or beneficially owned by it as of the date hereof and any and all other securities of the Company legally or beneficially acquired by it after the date hereof (other than the First Closing Shares) at the Stockholder Meeting in favor of the Stockholder Approval (i.e., the proposal providing for issuance of the Subsequent Closing Shares and Subsequent Closing Warrants in compliance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC). In the event that such Investor fails to vote the shares it is entitled to vote in the manner set forth above, such Investor shall be deemed immediately upon the existence of such breach to have appointed the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, with full power of substitution, as the proxy of such Investor with respect to the matters set forth herein, and hereby authorizes and directs such proxy to represent and vote such Investor’s shares to ensure that such shares will be voted as set forth herein. Each of the Investors acknowledges that each proxy granted hereby, including any successive proxy if need be, is given to secure the performance of a duty, is coupled with an interest, and shall be irrevocable until the duty is performed. Each Investor hereby revokes any and all previous proxies with respect to the shares of the Company’s voting capital stock as it relates to the Stockholder Meeting. Each Investor agrees not to grant any proxy with respect to such shares of voting capital stock of the Company or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust agreement or other arrangement of any kind that is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for clarity, the First Closing Shares shall not be not counted for purposes of the Stockholder Approval pursuant to the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.
23. Expenses; Indemnity. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, each party shall pay any fees or expenses incurred thereby in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the First Closing, the Company shall pay or reimburse the Investors in respect of all fees and expenses of outside legal counsel to the Investors, such payment or reimbursement in respect of the fees and expenses of outside legal
counsel not to exceed $40,000 in the aggregate. In addition, should any litigation, action or proceeding be commenced or threatened in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or other documents and agreements being executed in connection therewith, the Company will indemnify and hold the Investors harmless with respect thereto, including in respect of reasonable fees and expenses of outside legal counsel to the Investors, provided that the foregoing shall not apply in the case of (a) any litigation, action or proceeding commenced by the Company in connection with any breach by the Investors of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Investors set forth in this Agreement, or (b) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Investors, in each case as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
24. Specific Performance. Each party hereby acknowledges and agrees that the failure of the other parties to perform their respective agreements and covenants hereunder will cause irreparable injury to the other parties, for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each party hereby agrees that any other party shall be entitled to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such party’s obligations, and the parties waive the requirement to post a bond or other collateral in connection therewith or any defense that money damages is a sufficient remedy.
25. Further Assurances. The Company agrees to execute and deliver, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, and each Investor agrees to execute and deliver, such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings and to take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary or desirable in order to consummate or implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other documents referred to herein.

APRICUS BIOSCIENCES, INC.
I, the undersigned, do hereby certify:
(1) That I am the duly elected, qualified and acting Chief Executive Officer of Apricus Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”); and
(2) That the resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on January [ ˜ ], 2016, did amend the Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company to delete Article II, Section 2.7 in its entirety and replace it with the following:
“Section 2.7. Quorum. 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders. If less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. At a meeting resumed after any such adjournment at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. Once a quorum is established, stockholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, even if stockholders withdraw their shares in such number that less than a quorum remain.”
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name this ___ day of ________________, 2016.
