In the event the Company is unable with the exercise of due diligence to eliminate or modify all unacceptable matters, Whitebox may accept title subject to the unacceptable matters raised by Whitebox, in which event Whitebox’s objections to such matters shall be deemed to be waived for all purposes.

(c) Current Survey. Prior to Closing, Whitebox may obtain, at Whitebox’s sole cost and expense, a current boundary line and topographical survey of the Real Property (the “Survey”).

This Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Whitebox, has been duly executed and delivered by Whitebox, and is the valid and binding agreement of Whitebox and is enforceable against Whitebox in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to judicial limitations on the remedy of specific enforcement and other equitable remedies.

Section 4.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with Whitebox in reliance upon Whitebox’s representation to the Company, which by Whitebox’s execution of this Agreement Whitebox hereby confirms, that the New Note and Conversion Shares are being acquired for investment for Whitebox’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Whitebox has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Whitebox further represents that Whitebox does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any third party to sell, transfer or grant participations to such third party or to any third Person, with respect to any portion of the New Note or Conversion Shares.

Section 4.3 Reliance Upon Whitebox’s Representations; Restrictions on Resale. Whitebox understands that neither the New Note nor the Conversion Shares have been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws by reason of their contemplated issuance in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof or Rule 505 or 506 promulgated under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and that the reliance of the Company and others upon these exemptions is predicated in part upon this representation by Whitebox. Whitebox further understands that the New Note and the Conversion Shares may not be transferred or resold without (i) registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or (ii) an exemption from the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Whitebox also understands that any Conversion Shares will be issued without prior registration thereof under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and transactional exemptions from registration under applicable state securities laws based upon appropriate representations of Whitebox. As such, the Conversion Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions similar to restrictions applicable to the New Notes. Whitebox understands (i) that an exemption from such registration is not presently available pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act by the SEC and (ii) that in any event Whitebox may not sell any securities acquired hereunder pursuant to Rule 144 prior to the expiration of a one-year period (or such shorter period as the Commission may hereafter adopt) after Whitebox has acquired such securities. Whitebox understands that any sales pursuant to Rule 144 can be made only in full compliance with the provisions of Rule 144.

Section 4.4 Receipt of Information. Whitebox represents that the Company has provided Whitebox sufficient opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company’s management concerning the Company’s business, management and financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the New Note and the Conversion Shares and to obtain any additional information (which the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense) as may be necessary to verify the accuracy of information furnished to Whitebox. Whitebox hereby represents that it has made an independent decision to purchase cancel the Second Amended and Restated Notes and purchase the New Note and Conversion Shares as contemplated by this Agreement on the information available to Whitebox, which Whitebox has determined is adequate for that purpose. No GeoPharma Entity and no Affiliate thereof has given any investment advice or rendered any opinion to Whitebox as to whether the transactions contemplated hereby are prudent or suitable, and Whitebox is not relying on any representation or warranty by any GeoPharma Entity or any Affiliate thereof, except as expressly set forth herein. Whitebox has reviewed the representations concerning the Company contained in this Agreement. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement or the right of Whitebox to rely thereon.

Section 4.5 Investment Experience. Whitebox represents that it is experienced in evaluating and investing in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the New Note and the Conversion Shares. Whitebox further represents that it is a sophisticated investor and has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition of GeoPharma including, without limitation, the transactions involving Xxxxxxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. described in Section 6.5 hereof and the Securities Exchange Agreement of even date herewith by and between GeoPharma and the other parties thereto and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Contemporaneous Transactions”), and understands the disadvantage to which it may be subject on account of any disparity of information that may exist between the parties hereto. Whitebox believes, by reason of its business or financial experience, that it is capable of evaluating the merits, risks and relative fairness of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Contemporaneous Transactions. Whitebox further acknowledges that (a) the GeoPharma Entities and their Affiliates may possess material non-public information not known to Whitebox regarding the GeoPharma Entities or relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation information concerning the business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects or future plans of the GeoPharma Entities, and (b) it is fully aware of the interest in and involvement of certain shareholders and directors of GeoPharma in the transactions involving Xxxxxxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. described in Section 6.5 hereof and agrees that no GeoPharma Entity or Affiliate or their respective past and present directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys and representatives shall have any liability whatsoever (and Whitebox hereby waives and releases all claims that it may otherwise have) with respect to (x) the nondisclosure of any such material non-public information, whether before or after the date of this Agreement or (y) the Contemporaneous Transactions. Whitebox further confirms that it understands the significance of the foregoing waiver and release.

Section 4.6 Accredited Whitebox. Whitebox is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect.

Section 4.7 Legends. The New Note will bear the legends set forth in Exhibit A. Additionally, each certificate or other document evidencing the Conversion Shares shall be endorsed with the legends set forth below:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED ABSENT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

Whitebox covenants that, except to the extent such restrictions are waived by the Company, Whitebox shall not transfer the New Notes or Conversion Shares without complying with the restrictions on transfer described in such legends. The Company shall make a notation regarding the restrictions on transfer of the Conversion Shares and the New Note in its books and the Conversion Shares and other New Note shall be transferred on the books of the Company only if transferred or sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the securities to be transferred or an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required; provided, however, that (i) the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances and (ii) the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transfers to affiliated entities managed by the same manager or managing partner or management company, or managed by an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with such manager, managing partner or management company so long as the transferor certifies in writing to the Company that the transferor is not receiving any consideration in connection with the transfer and so long as the transferee will be subject to the terms of these restrictions to the same extent as if such transferee were an original Whitebox hereunder.

Section 4.8 Trading in Company Common Stock. Whitebox represents that it will comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, in connection with any purchases or sales of the Company’s Common Stock or any short sales or “derivative” transactions related thereto.
