Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) dated February 13, 2012, between ADMA Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”). Pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company is offering, through the Placement Agent, shares of Common Stock. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Placement Agency Agreement.
To induce the Placement Agent’s continuing efforts in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Placement Agency Agreement, the undersigned agrees that, without the Placement Agent’s prior written consent, the undersigned will not, for a period commencing on the closing of the Merger and ending 180 days after such date (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, exercisable for, or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing restriction (i) shall not limit the right of the undersigned during the Lock-Up Period to make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, exercisable for, or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock so long as there are no sales of such shares of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period and (ii) shall include, without limitation, any securities issued to the undersigned in (i) the Offerings and (ii) the Merger in exchange for securities of the Company.
Any Common Stock acquired by the undersigned in the open market on or after the closing of the Merger will not be subject to this agreement. A transfer of Common Stock to a family member or a trust for the benefit of the undersigned or a family member (including by will or intestacy) or a distribution to partners, members or shareholders of the undersigned may be made, provided the transferee agrees in writing prior to such transfer to be bound by the terms of this agreement as if it were a party hereto.
The foregoing restriction shall not apply to bona fide gifts by the undersigned, provided that (a) each resulting transferee of Common Stock executes and delivers to the Placement Agent an agreement certifying that such transferee is bound by the terms of this agreement and has been in compliance with the terms hereof since the date first above written as if it had been an original
party hereto and (b) to the extent any interest in Common Stock is retained by the undersigned (or such spouse or family member), such Common Stock shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this agreement.
The undersigned agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar relating to the transfer of the undersigned’s shares of Common Stock except in compliance with the restrictions described above.
The provisions of this agreement may not be waived by the Placement Agent without the prior written consent of the Company.
This agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect if the Merger is not consummated by February 10, 2012, provided that, if the Company and the Placement Agent exercise their option to extend the offering through March 12, 2012, this agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect if the Merger is not consummated by such date.
This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to such State’s principles of conflict of laws. Delivery of a signed copy of this letter by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of the original hereof.
Very truly yours,
