for the period commencing the date of the consummation of the Merger and ending on the later of (i) first anniversary of the consummation of the Merger, or (ii) the closing of the database for the Corporation’s (including though its subsidiary) planned Phase II randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled study of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease patients in Russia, which is expected to occur in the first half of 2006, but, notwithstanding the foregoing time periods, the lock-up period will not exceed two years after the consummation of the Merger.
Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, this lock-up agreement will not prevent any Transfer of any or all of the Restricted Shares, [i] either during the undersigned’s lifetime or on the undersigned’s death, by gift, will or intestate succession, to the undersigned’s “family member” or to trusts, family limited partnerships and similar entities for the benefit of the undersigned or the undersigned’s “family members”; or if the undersigned is an entity, to the stockholders, members or other owners of such entity, provided, however, that in each and any such event it shall be a condition to the Transfer that the transferee execute an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Restricted Shares subject to the provision of this lock-up agreement, and other than to return the Restricted Shares to the former ownership, there shall be no further Transfer of the Restricted Shares except in accordance with this lock-up agreement, or [ii] upon the approval by unanimous written consent of the then board of directors of the Corporation. For purposes of this sub-paragraph, “family member” shall mean spouse, lineal descendants, stepchildren, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor or of the transferor’s spouse.
The undersigned has submitted or in the future will submit any certificates representing the Restricted Shares to the Corporation so that it may apply the appropriate legend thereto to reflect the existence and general terms of this lock-up agreement.
This lock-up agreement will be legally binding on the undersigned and on the undersigned’s heirs, successors, executors, administrators, conservators and permitted assigns, executed as an instrument governed by the laws of the State of California.
Very truly yours,
