Rights Agreement), and may not be
-5-
transferred unless (A) the Shares are subsequently registered thereunder or (B)
the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably
satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the
Shares may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such
registration; (2) any sale of the Shares made in reliance on Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act may be made only in accordance with the terms of
said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of such Shares
under circumstances in which the seller, or the person through whom the sale is
made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is used in the 1933 Act,
may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules
and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (3) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register the Shares (other than pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement) under the 1933 Act or to comply with the
terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Buyer may transfer a portion of the Shares only
if the number of Shares to be transferred had an original purchase price
pursuant to this Agreement of at least $2,000,000.00 and the transferee agrees
in writing with the Company to be bound by the provisions of Sections 4(g) and
4(h) hereof with respect to the Shares so transferred.

until such time as the Shares have been registered for resale under the 1933 Act
as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, the certificates for the
Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a
stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the
Shares):
The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The shares have been
acquired for investment and may not be sold, transferred or assigned
in the absence of an effective registration statement for these shares
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the
Company, that registration is not required under said Act.
C. REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT. The parties hereto agree to enter
into the Registration Rights Agreement, in the form attached hereto as ANNEX II,
on or before the Closing Date.
D. FORM D; BLUE SKY LAWS. The Company agrees to file a Form D with
respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy
thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or
before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably
determine is necessary to qualify the Shares for, or obtain exemption for the
Shares for, sale to the Buyer at the closing pursuant to this Agreement under
applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the
-0-
Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the

after the Closing Date so long as the Buyer beneficially owns any of the Shares,
the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"1934 Act"), and the Company shall not, terminate its status as an issuer
required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules
and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.

of the Shares for the Company's internal working capital purposes and shall not,
directly or indirectly, use such proceeds for any loan to or investment in any
other corporation, partnership, enterprise or other person; provided, however,
-------- -------
that nothing in this Section 4(f) shall restrict the Company from using such
proceeds for (1) temporary liquid investments consistent with the Company's
practices for investing cash and cash equivalents for the period from January 1,
1995 to the date of this Agreement, (2) expenses in connection with arrangements
for marketing the Company's pharmaceutical products, (3) investments in

G. LIMITATION ON CERTAIN ADDITIONAL PURCHASES. The Buyer agrees not
to become a Beneficial Owner (as hereinafter defined) of any Voting Stock (as
hereinafter defined) of the Company for the purposes or with the intention of,
as a result of such acquisition, becoming an Acquiring Person (as hereinafter
defined) for purposes of the Rights Agreement. If the Buyer shall have made
good faith efforts to comply with this Section 4(g), but shall nonetheless have
become a Beneficial Owner (as so defined) of any Voting Stock (as so defined) as
a result of which the Buyer shall have become an Acquiring Person (as so
defined), then, so long as for purposes of Section 1(a) of the Rights Agreement
there are at the time in office not less than two Continuing Directors (as
hereinafter defined), the Board of Directors will make such determinations as
contemplated by Section 1(a) of the Rights Agreement as shall permit the Buyer
to cease to be an Acquiring Person (as so defined), if the Buyer divests as
promptly as practicable a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock so that
the Buyer would no longer be an Acquiring Person (as so defined) and the Buyer
hereby agrees to make such divestiture. Capitalized terms used in this Section
4(g) and not otherwise defined in this
-7-
Agreement shall have the respective meanings provided in the Rights Agreement.

offering of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of
Common Stock for the account of the Company, if the Registration Statement
required by Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement shall at the time
be effective and shall have been effective for at least 120 consecutive days
since it was first ordered effective by the SEC and the Company shall otherwise
have complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement, then, on at least 20 days prior written
notice, the Buyer shall enter into such written agreement as shall be reasonably
requested by the underwriter or underwriters for such offering pursuant to which
the Buyer shall agree not to make any public sale of the Shares for such period
of consecutive days (not in excess of 90 days) as other stockholders of the
Company agree to restrict the sale of their shares of Common Stock in connection
with such underwritten offering (the "Lock-up Period"). The provisions of this
Section 4(h) shall be applicable to no more than four such underwritten public
offerings as follows: (1) not more than two such underwritten public offerings
during the 24 months following the date the Registration Statement required by
Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement is first ordered effective by
the SEC (the "Effective Date"); provided, however, that the second such period
-------- -------
of up to 90 days pursuant to this clause (1) may not commence earlier than 180
days after the end of the first such period of up to 90 days pursuant to this
clause (1), and (2) not more than two such public offerings during the 12 month
period commencing 25 months and ending 36 months after the Effective Date;
provided, however, that the first such period of up to 90 days pursuant to this
-------- -------
clause (2) may not commence earlier than 120 days after the end of the then most
recent period of up to 90 days pursuant to the preceding clause (1) and the
second such period of up to 90 days pursuant to this clause (2) may not commence
earlier than 120 days after the end of the first such period pursuant to this
clause (2). If the Company shall have given a notice as contemplated by this
Section 4(h) but the Lock-up Period shall not have commenced and prior to the
commencement of such Lock-up Period the Company shall have withdraw such notice
by notice to the Buyer, then the Company shall continue to have the right
thereafter to invoke this Section 4(h) on one occasion in lieu thereof. The
form of any such agreement by the Buyer shall be substantially the same as that
entered into by other stockholders who enter into such agreements in connection
with such underwritten offering.
I. CERTAIN EXPENSES. Notwithstanding the joint and several
liability of the Company and the Buyer to the Escrow Agent under Section 11 of
the Joint Escrow Instructions, as between the Company and the Buyer any claims,
liabilities, costs or expenses of the Escrow Agent which are payable as provided
in Section 11 of

the Joint Escrow Instructions shall be paid equally and if either the Company or
the Buyer shall have paid more than its share thereof then the other party shall
reimburse the party who has paid any such excess for the amount thereof on
demand.

subscription price for the Shares in accordance with Section 1(c) hereof, the
Company will instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates for
the Shares, bearing the restrictive legend specified in Section 4(b) of this
Agreement prior to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act, registered in
the name of the Buyer or its nominee and in such denominations to be specified
by the Buyer at least one business day prior to the date of the closing. The
Company warrants that no instruction other than such instructions referred to in
this Section 5 and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 4(a)
hereof prior to the registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act will be given
by the Company to the transfer agent with respect to the Shares and that the
Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the
Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer's
obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon
resale of the Shares. If the Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of
counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company,
that registration of a resale by the Buyer of any of the Shares in accordance
with clause (1)(B) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not required under the
1933 Act, the Company shall permit the transfer of the Shares and promptly
instruct the Company's transfer agent to issue one or more share certificates in
such name or names and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer.
