NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Voting Provisions Regarding Board of Directors.
1.1. Size of the Board. Each Stockholder agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all Shares (as defined below) owned by such Stockholder, or over which such Stockholder has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to ensure that the size of the Post-Financing Board shall be five (5) directors, unless the Post-Financing Board resolves to expand its size to seven (7) directors, in which case the size of the Post-Financing Board shall be seven (7) directors. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Shares” shall mean and include any securities of the Company the holders of which are entitled to vote for members of the Post-Financing Board, including without limitation, all shares of Common Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, by whatever name called, now owned or subsequently acquired by a Stockholder, however acquired, whether through stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations, similar events or otherwise.
1.2. Board Composition. Each Stockholder agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all Shares owned by such Stockholder, or over which such Stockholder has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to ensure that at each annual or special meeting of stockholders at which an election of directors is held or pursuant to any written consent of the stockholders, the following persons shall be elected to the Post-Financing Board:
(a) one (1) director of the Company designated by the Lane Holders (the “Lane Representative”). The Lane Representative shall initially be Lane;
(b) one (1) director of the Company designated by the Singh Holders (the “Singh Representative”). The Singh Representative shall initially be Singh;
(c) three (3) directors of the Company designated by the Xxxxxxx Holders (the “Xxxxxxx Representatives”); provided that if the size of the Post-Financing Board is increased to seven (7), then the Xxxxxxx Holders may designate one (1) additional director of the Company.

The Stockholders hereby agree that no Xxxxxxx Representative, Lane Representative, or Singh Representative shall ever be Xxxxxx Xxxxx or an Affiliate (as defined below) thereof;
(d) If the size of the Post-Financing Board is increased to seven (7), then the IB Holders shall be entitled to designate one (1) director of the Company who shall
-2-
preferably be a Certified Public Accountant or a candidate who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and any rules and regulations thereunder.
(e) In the event that any of the Lane Holders, the Singh Holders, or the Xxxxxxx Holders shall cease to beneficially own (determined in accordance with Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder) at least 4% of the outstanding Common Stock determined as of the date hereof after giving effect to the initial Closing of the offering by the Company of Series C Preferred Stock, then the right of such holders falling below such 4% beneficial ownership to designate the Lane Representative, the Singh Representative, or the Maneesh Representative, as applicable, shall terminate and such right shall be vested in the entire Post-Financing Board. After such initial Closing, the Company shall notify the Stockholders of the number of shares of Common Stock equal to 4% as so determined above.
1.3. Failure to Designate a Board Member. In the absence of any designation from the persons or groups with the right to designate a director as specified above, the director previously designated by them and then serving shall be reelected if still eligible to serve as provided herein.
1.4. Removal of Board Members. Each Stockholder also agrees to vote, or cause to be voted, all Shares owned by such Stockholder, or over which such Stockholder has voting control, from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to ensure that:
(a) no director elected pursuant to Sections 1.2 or Section 1.3 of this Agreement may be removed from office unless (i) such removal is directed or approved by the affirmative vote of the Person(s) (as defined below), or of the holders of the class of stock, entitled under Section 1.2 to designate that director or (ii) the Person(s) originally entitled to designate or approve such director or occupy such Post-Financing Board seat pursuant to Section 1.2 is no longer so entitled to designate or approve such director or occupy such Post-Financing Board seat; and
(b) any vacancies created by the resignation, removal or death of a director elected pursuant to Sections 1.2 or Section 1.3 shall be filled pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.
All Stockholders agree to execute any written consents required to perform the obligations of this Agreement, and the Company agrees at the request of any party entitled to designate directors to call a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing directors.
1.5. No Liability for Election of Recommended Directors. No party, nor any Affiliate of any such party, shall have any liability as a result of designating a Person for election as a director for any act or omission by such designated Person in his or her capacity as a director of the Company, nor shall any party have any liability as a result of voting for any such designee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

1.6 Xxxxx and Affiliates. Each of the Stockholders agrees that it shall not vote its respective shares, contrary to the resolution of a majority of disinterested directors of the Company, to engage in any fashion Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, Nostrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. or any of their respective affiliates or associates (the “Xxxxx Parties”), other than to resolve outstanding disputes between the Company and any affiliates thereof and any Xxxxx Parties.
2. Remedies.
2.1. Irrevocable Proxy. Each party to this Agreement hereby constitutes and appoints a designee of each of the Lane Holders, the Singh Holder and the Xxxxxxx Holders, and each of them, with full power of substitution, as the proxies of the party with respect to the matters set forth herein, including without limitation, election of persons as members of the Post-Financing Board in accordance with Section 1 hereto, and hereby authorizes each of them to represent and to vote, if and only if the party (i) fails to vote or (ii) attempts to vote (whether by proxy, in person or by written consent), in a manner which is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, all of such party’s Shares in favor of the election of persons as members of the Post-Financing Board determined pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The proxy granted pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is given in consideration of the agreements and covenants of the Company and the parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, as such, is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable unless and until this Agreement terminates or expires pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
