SECTION 4

REPRESENTATIONS, COVENANTS, AND WARRANTIES

OF THE CUREDM MEMBERS

Each of the CureDM Members, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to BTHE as of the Closing Date, as follows:

4.1 Ownership and Restrictions on CureDM Membership Interest. Such CureDM Member is not a party to any agreement, written or oral, creating rights in respect of the CureDM Membership Interests owned by such CureDM Member in any third person or, except as set forth in the CureDM Organizational Documents, relating to the voting of such CureDM Membership Interest. Such CureDM Member is the lawful and beneficial owner of the CureDM Membership Interest set forth opposite such CureDM Member’s name on Schedule A hereto, free and clear of all security interests, liens, encumbrances, equities and other charges, except for any applicable restrictions under U.S. securities laws and under the CureDM Organizational Documents. There are no existing warrants, options, stock purchase agreements, redemption agreements, restrictions of any nature, calls or rights to subscribe of any character relating to such CureDM Membership Interest owned by such CureDM Member, nor does such CureDM Member hold any other securities convertible into membership interests in CureDM.

4.2 No Registration. Such CureDM Member understands that the issuance of the BTHE Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act.

4.4 Investment Intent. The BTHE Shares, when issued, will be acquired for such CureDM Member’s own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view for distribution or resale to others. Such CureDM Member will not sell or otherwise transfer the BTHE Shares unless such sale is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption to or exclusion from such registration requirement is available. BTHE is under no obligation to register the offer or sale of the BTHE Shares under the Securities Act. Following the issuance of the BTHE Shares, legends shall be placed on the certificates representing the BTHE Shares to the effect that they have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and appropriate notations thereof will be made in BTHE’s books and stop transfer instructions may be placed with BTHE’s transfer agent.

Although BTHE’s common stock is quoted for trading by a marketplace operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., trading has been both low-volume and sporadic and there are no assurances a more robust trading market will develop in the near future, if at all; accordingly, the BTHE Shares are considered an illiquid investment.

Such CureDM Member is an experienced and sophisticated investor, is able to fend for himself, herself or itself in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the risks and merits of acquiring the BTHE Shares. Such CureDM Member is an accredited investor as such term is defined under the Securities Act, and understands the meaning of the term “accredited investor.” Each CureDM Member who is not an accredited investor is listed on Schedule 4.4 and either alone or with his, her or it representative(s) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment. Such CureDM Member understands that the offer and sale of the BTHE Shares is being made only by means of this Agreement and that BTHE has not authorized the use of, and such CureDM Member confirms that he, she or it is not relying upon, any other information, written or oral, other than material contained in this Agreement and the BTHE SEC Documents.

4.5 Independent Evaluation. Such CureDM Member conducted its own independent evaluation, made its own analysis and consulted with advisors (including legal, accounting, and tax advisors) as it has deemed necessary, prudent or advisable in order for such CureDM Member to make its own determination and decision to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to execute and deliver this Agreement.

4.6 Acknowledgement of BTHE Representations. CureDM Members acknowledge and agree that BTHE does not make, nor has it made, any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.

No investigation by a party hereto shall, however, diminish or constitute a waiver of, in any way, any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any other party under this Agreement.

5.2 Expenses. Each party hereto agrees to pay its own costs and expenses incurred in negotiating this Agreement and consummating the transactions described herein.

5.3 Further Assurances. The parties shall execute such documents and other papers and take such further actions, as may be reasonably required or desirable, to carry out the provisions hereof and the transactions contemplated hereby.

The use of the Equity Financing proceeds shall be designated as working capital for at least, but not limited to the synthesis of HIP2B clinical material.¹ In the event the Equity Financing is not closed as of the Equity Financing Date, then, if both BTHE and CureDM, Inc. mutually agree, (i) this Agreement – other than the provisions of Section 13, will then be null and void and have no further force and effect and all other rights and liabilities of the parties hereunder will terminate without any liability of any party to any other party and (ii) each party shall have released, remised and forever discharged any and all rights and claims that it has had, now has or might now have against the other. Further, the CureDM Members will return all BTHE Shares to BTHE for cancellation. The CureDM Members will deliver all required documents required to cancel the BTHE Shares, including, but not limited to, a medallion guaranteed stock power. The CureDM Members hereby appoint CureDM, Inc. as its agent in fact in order to implement the cancellation of the BTHE Shares as contemplated herein and to sign all related documentation in connection with the cancellation of the BTHE Shares, including, but not limited to, a medallion guaranteed stock power. Upon receipt of the BTHE Shares and all related documentation, BTHE shall return all CureDM Membership Interest to the CureDM Members. In order to ensure compliance with this section, the CureDM Members hereby agree that until the Equity Financing is closed, the CureDM Members shall not sell, offer to sell, contract to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, assignment, pledge or other disposition of the BTHE Shares.

SECTION 12

INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Obligation of BTHE to Indemnify. Subject to the limitations on the survival of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in Section 9 and subject to the closing of the Equity Financing (or no mutual agreement to unwind the transaction per Section 5.6 in the event of no Equity Financing by the Equity Financing Date), BTHE hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the CureDM Members from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, costs and expenses (including interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) (each, a “Loss” and collectively, the “Losses”) based upon, arising out of or otherwise due to any breach of, any material representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of BTHE contained in this Agreement. BTHE may not settle or compromise any such Loss without the prior written consent of the CureDM Members who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, held a majority in interest of the CureDM Membership Interests, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Except to the extent the CureDM Members are disproportionately affected by any such Loss, all amounts paid or payable by BTHE in connection with any indemnification claim made pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be allocated ratably among the CureDM Members in accordance with their relative holdings of CureDM Membership Interests as set forth on Schedule A.

12.2 Obligation of the CureDM Members to Indemnify Related to Section 4 Representations and Warranties. Subject to the limitations on the survival of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in Section 10 and subject to the closing of the Equity Financing (or no mutual agreement to unwind the transaction per Section 5.6 in the event of no Equity Financing by the Equity Financing Date), each CureDM Member agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless BTHE from and against any Loss based upon, arising out of, or otherwise due to any breach of any material representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by such CureDM Member and contained in Section 4 of this Agreement. The CureDM Members may not settle or compromise any such Loss without the prior written consent of BTHE, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that each CureDM Member’s aggregate liability under this Section 12.2 shall in no event exceed 50% of the lesser of: (i) the value of the Closing BTHE Shares received by such CureDM Member as of the Closing Date and (ii) the value of such Closing BTHE Shares as of the date of the Indemnification Notice (defined below) or if such Closing BTHE Shares have been disposed of or sold by such CureDM Member prior to the date of the Indemnification Notice, the consideration received in the sale of such Closing BTHE Shares. In the event the BTHE Shares are no longer publicly traded as of the date of the Indemnification Notice, such CureDM Member shall have the option to tender 50% of the Closing BTHE Shares received by such CureDM Member as of the Closing Date in satisfaction of the indemnification obligation hereunder.

12.3 Obligation of CureDM, Inc. and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx to Indemnify Related to Section 2 Representations and Warranties. Subject to the limitations on the survival of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in Section 10 and subject to the closing of the Equity Financing (or no mutual agreement to unwind the transaction per Section 5.6 in the event of no Equity Financing by the Equity Financing Date), CureDM, Inc. and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx each agree, severally but not jointly on a pro rata basis based upon such Member’s total membership interest in CureDM as of the Closing Date (and in addition to the obligations in Section 12.2 above), to indemnify, defend and hold harmless BTHE from and against any Loss based upon, arising out of, or otherwise due to any breach of any material representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by such CureDM Member and contained in Section 2 of this Agreement. CureDM, Inc. and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx may not settle or compromise any such Loss without the prior written consent of BTHE, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the respective aggregate liability of either CureDM, Inc. and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx under this Section 12.3 shall in no event exceed 10% of the lesser of: (i) the value of the Closing BTHE Shares received by CureDM, Inc. or Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, as applicable, as of the Closing Date and (ii) the value of such Closing BTHE Shares as of the date of the Indemnification Notice (defined below) or if such Closing BTHE Shares have been disposed of or sold by CureDM, Inc. or Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, as applicable, prior to the date of the Indemnification Notice, the consideration received in the sale of such Closing BTHE Shares. In the event the BTHE Shares are no longer publicly traded as of the date of the Indemnification Notice, CureDM, Inc. and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, as applicable, shall have the option to tender 10% of their respective Closing BTHE Shares received as of the Closing Date in satisfaction of the indemnification obligation hereunder.

12.4 Deductible. An Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party until the aggregate amount of all Losses for which the Indemnifying Party would, but for this Section 12.4 be liable under Sections 12.1, 12.2 or 12.3, as applicable, exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to $50,000 (the “Deductible”), in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall become liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible (but shall not be liable for losses below or up to the amount of the Deductible).

12.5 Defense of Third-Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement of any claim with respect to which a party may be entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement pursuant to this Section 12 (an “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its election, to proceed with the defense of such claim or proceeding on its own with counsel. Except as provided in Section 12.1, 12.2 or 12.3, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or proceeding, and shall provide the party required to provide such indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) with prompt notice after it becomes aware of the commencement of any such claim or proceeding (the “Indemnification Notice”); provided, however, that any failure on the part of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnified Party, or any of the rights of the Indemnified Party, under this Section 12 (except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the defense of such claim or proceeding). If the Indemnified Party does not elect to proceed with the defense of any such claim or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party may proceed with the defense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not settle or compromise any such claim or proceeding without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

SECTION 13

13.4 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in New York County, State of New York, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
