For purposes of this section, “Legal Proceeding” shall mean any action, suit, litigation, arbitration, proceeding (including any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate proceeding), hearing, inquiry, audit, examination or investigation commenced, brought, conducted or heard by or before, or otherwise involving, any court or other Governmental Body or any arbitrator or arbitration panel.
7

5.14 Counterparts; Exchanges by Facsimile or Electronic Delivery.

No failure on the part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Voting Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Person in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Voting Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No Person shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Voting Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Voting Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Person; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
5.17 Independence of Obligations. The covenants and obligations of Stockholder set forth in this Voting Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other contract between Stockholder, on the one hand, and IgDraSol or Sorrento, on the other. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Stockholder against IgDraSol or Sorrento shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of any of such covenants or obligations against Stockholder.

EXHIBIT A
FORM OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY
IRREVOCABLE PROXY
The undersigned stockholder (the “Stockholder”) of IgDraSol, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “IgDraSol”), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by law) appoints and constitutes Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sorrento”), and Xx. Xxxxx Ji and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, solely in their capacities as executive officers of Sorrento, and each of them, the attorneys and proxies of the Stockholder, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholder’s rights with respect to the outstanding shares of capital stock of IgDraSol owned of record by the Stockholder as of the date of this proxy, which shares are specified in this proxy, and all shares of capital stock of IgDraSol that may be owned of record by the Stockholder after the date of this proxy. (The shares of the capital stock of IgDraSol referred to in the immediately preceding sentence are referred to as the “Shares.”) Upon the execution of this proxy, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect to any of the Shares are hereby revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies inconsistent with this Proxy will be given with respect to any of the Shares.
This proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with, and as security for, the Voting Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Sorrento, IgDraSol and the Stockholder (the “Voting Agreement”), and is granted in consideration of Sorrento entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, among Sorrento, STI Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation, IgDraSol and Xxxxx Xxxxx as the Stockholders’ Agent. This proxy will terminate on the Expiration Date (as defined in the Voting Agreement).
Prior to the Expiration Date, the attorneys and proxies named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote any Shares owned by the undersigned, at any meeting of the stockholders of IgDraSol, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of IgDraSol:
(a) in favor of the Merger, the execution and delivery by IgDraSol of the Merger Agreement and the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the terms thereof, in favor of each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and in favor of any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing;
(b) in favor of any proposal to adjourn or postpone the meeting of the stockholders of IgDraSol to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for adoption of the Merger Agreement on the date on which such meeting is held;
(c) against any action or agreement that would result in a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of IgDraSol in the Merger Agreement; and
(d) against any action which is (i) intended to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or this Voting Agreement, or (ii) would reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, materially delay, materially postpone, discourage or adversely affect in any material way the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or this Voting Agreement.
Proxy
The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all other matters not referred to in this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect to such other matters.
This proxy shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Shares).
Any term or provision of this proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this proxy or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this proxy so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.
