AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 28, 2020, by and among BIOPHARMX CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), BITI MERGER SUB, INC., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and TIMBER PHARMACEUTICALS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

A. Parent and the Company intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement, the DGCL, and the DLLCA. Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist and the Company will become a wholly-owned, limited liability company subsidiary of Parent.

B. The Parties intend that the Merger constitute a transaction described in Section 351(a) of the Code.

C. The Parent Board has (i) determined that the Contemplated Transactions are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders, (ii) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock to the members of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (iii) determined to recommend, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, that the stockholders of Parent vote to approve the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock to the members of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

D. The Merger Sub Board has (i) determined that the Contemplated Transactions are fair to, advisable, and in the best interests of Merger Sub and its sole stockholder, (ii) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions and (iii) determined to recommend, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, that the stockholder of Merger Sub vote to adopt this Agreement and thereby approve the Contemplated Transactions.

E. The Company Managers have (i) determined that the Contemplated Transactions are fair to, advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its members, (ii) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions and (iii) determined to recommend, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, that the members of the Company vote to adopt this Agreement and thereby approve the Contemplated Transactions.

F. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as a condition and inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, all of the officers and directors of Parent (who are listed on Section A of the Company Disclosure Schedule (solely in their capacity as stockholders of Parent)) are executing support agreements in favor of the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Parent Stockholder Support Agreement”), pursuant to which such Persons have, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein and herein, agreed to vote all shares of Parent Common Stock of which they are the beneficial owner (as defined by Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) in favor of the Parent Stockholder Matters.

G. It is expected that on the date that Parent holds the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, the holders of membership interests in the Company sufficient to adopt and approve this Agreement and the Merger as required under the DLLCA and the Company’s Organizational Documents will execute and deliver an action by written consent adopting this Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent, in order to obtain the Required Company Member Vote (the “Company Member Written Consent”).

AGREEMENT

The Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Section 1 DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company will continue as the surviving limited liability company in the Merger (the “Surviving Entity”).

1.2 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL and the DLLCA. As a result of the Merger, the Company will become a wholly-owned, limited liability company subsidiary of Parent.

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. Unless this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8, the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than the second Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8, other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions), or at such other time, date and place as Parent and the Company may mutually agree. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.” At the Closing, the Parties shall cause the Merger to be consummated by executing and filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger with respect to the Merger, satisfying the applicable requirements of the DGCL and the DLLCA and in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company (the “Certificate of Merger”). The Merger shall become effective at the time of the filing of such Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as may be specified in such Certificate of Merger with the consent of Parent and the Company (the time as of which the Merger becomes effective being referred to as the “Effective Time”).

1.4 Certificate of Formation; Directors, Managers and Officers. At the Effective Time:

(a) the Certificate of Formation of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Certificate of Formation of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable Law.

(b) the limited liability company agreement of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Entity, until thereafter amended as provided by the DLLCA and such limited liability company agreement and as provided herein;

(c) the certificate of incorporation of Parent shall be identical to the certificate of incorporation of Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time, until thereafter amended as provided by the DGCL and such certificate of incorporation;

(d) the directors and officers of Parent, each to hold office in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent, shall be designated by the Company, and as set forth in Section 5.11; and

(e) the managers and officers of the Surviving Entity, each to hold office in accordance with the limited liability company agreement of the Surviving Entity, shall be the managers and officers of the

-2-

Company as set forth in Section 5.11, after giving effect to the provisions of Section 5.11, or such other persons as shall be mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company.

1.5 Conversion of Shares and Membership Interests.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any member of the Company or stockholder of Parent;

(i) The Company Preferred Equity outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of shares of a class of newly issued Parent Preferred Stock which shall not be convertible to Parent Common Stock but which shall have economic terms which are substantially the same as the economic terms of the Company Preferred Equity currently outstanding. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith prior to filing the Form S-4 with the SEC for the form of Certificate of Designations with respect to the Parent Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to this paragraph.

(ii) The Company Common Equity, together with the Company VARs specified by the Company pursuant to Exhibit C annexed hereto, outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Parent Common Stock and/or options or warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock equal in the aggregate to the Timber Allocation Number (the “Merger Consideration”).

(iii) Exhibit C annexed hereto describes how the Merger Consideration is to be allocated among shares of stock, options and warrants of the Parent and among the Company Equity holders including, if elected by the Company prior to Closing, holders of the Company VARs of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (with the treatment of vesting and any such repurchase options or risks of forfeiture, also described in Exhibit C).

(b) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Equity who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share and upon delivery by such holder of a Stock Registration Form in accordance with Section 1.7(b) and any accompanying documents as required therein, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the Parent Closing Price.

(c) All shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for 100% of the membership interests of the Surviving Entity.

(d) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding Units of Company Equity or shares of Parent Common Stock shall have been changed into, or exchanged for, a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares or other like change, the Timber Allocation Number shall, to the extent necessary, be equitably adjusted to reflect such change to the extent necessary to provide the holders of Company Equity and Parent Common Stock with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange of shares or other like change; provided, however, that nothing herein will be construed to permit the Company or Parent to take any action with respect to Company Equity or Parent Common Stock, respectively, that is prohibited or not expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

-3-

1.6 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) all Company Equity outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated in accordance with Exhibit C and all holders of Company Equity that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as equity holders of the Company; and (b) the transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all Company Equity outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such Company Equity shall be made on such transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate (if any) previously representing any Company Equity outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Entity, such Certificate shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Exhibit C.

1.7 Issuance of Certificates.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Parent shall deposit with its transfer agent (the “Exchange Agent”): (i) certificates or evidence of book-entry shares representing the Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5(a) and Exhibit C and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.5(b). The Parent Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent, together with any dividends or distributions received by the Exchange Agent with respect to such shares, are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, the Parties shall cause the holders of Company Equity listed on Exhibit C to deliver to the Exchange Agent a completed and executed Stock Registration Form in the form of Exhibit D. Upon delivery of each Stock Registration Form to the Exchange Agent (A) the holder of such Company Equity shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate or certificates or book-entry shares representing the Merger Consideration (in a number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5(a) and Exhibit C (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5(b)).

1.8 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by the Surviving Entity to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Entity with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of the Company, then the officers and directors of the Surviving Entity shall be fully authorized, and shall use their and its commercially reasonable efforts (in the name of the Company, in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Surviving Entity and otherwise) to take such action.

(i) Each Person who is or was an employee or contractor of the Parent and who is or was involved in the creation or development of any Parent IP Rights has signed a valid, enforceable agreement containing an assignment of such Intellectual Property to the Parent and confidentiality provisions protecting confidential information of the Parent and Parent has no reason to believe that any such Person is unwilling to provide Parent with cooperation as may reasonably be required to complete or prosecute all Parent IP Rights.

(ii) No current nor, to the Knowledge of Parent, former member, officer, director, or employee of the Parent has any claim, right (whether or not currently exercisable), or interest to or in any Parent IP Rights purported to be owned by the Parent.

(vi) To the Knowledge of the Parent, (i) the Parent IP Rights are valid and enforceable and (ii) constitute all Intellectual Property necessary for the Parent to conduct its business as currently conducted and planned to be conducted.

(b) The Company agrees that: (i) the Company Managers shall recommend that the Company’s members vote to adopt and approve this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions and shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit such approval within the time set forth in Section 5.2(a) (the recommendation of the Company Managers that the Company’s members vote to adopt and approve this Agreement being referred to as the “Company Managers Recommendation”); and (ii) the Company Managers Recommendation shall not be withdrawn or modified (and the Company Managers shall not publicly propose to withdraw or modify the Company Managers Recommendation) in a manner adverse to Parent, and no resolution by the Company Managers or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Company Managers Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent or to adopt, approve or recommend (or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend) any Acquisition Proposal shall be adopted or proposed (the actions set forth in the foregoing clause (ii), collectively, a “Company Managers Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.2(b), and subject to compliance with Section 4.5 and Section 5.2, if at any time prior to the approval of the Required Parent Stockholder Matters by the Required Parent Stockholder Vote, the Company receives a bona fide written Superior Offer, the Company Managers may make a Company Managers Adverse Recommendation Change if, but only if, following the receipt of and on account of such Superior Offer, (i) the Company Managers determine in good faith, based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Company Managers Adverse Recommendation Change would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, (ii) the Company has, and has caused its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to, during the Company Notice Period (as defined below), negotiate with Parent in good faith (if Parent so desires) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Offer, and (iii) if after Parent shall have delivered to the Company a written offer to alter the terms or conditions of this Agreement during the Company Notice Period, the Company Managers shall have determined in good faith, based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Company Managers Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (after taking into account such alterations of the terms and conditions of this Agreement); provided that Parent receives written notice from the Company confirming that the Company Managers have determined to change their recommendation at least four Business Days in advance of such Company Managers Adverse Recommendation Change, (the “Company Notice Period”), which notice shall

-45-

include written copies of any relevant proposed transaction agreements with any party making a potential Superior Offer. In the event of any material amendment to any Superior Offer, the Company shall be required to provide Parent with notice of such material amendment and the Company Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least two Business Days remain in the Company Notice Period following such notification during which the Parties shall comply again with the requirements of this Section 5.3(c) and the Company Managers shall not make a Company Managers Adverse Recommendation Change prior to the end of such Company Notice Period as so extended.

5.3 Parent Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a) Parent shall take all action necessary under applicable Law to call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of Parent Common Stock to consider and vote to (i) approve the issuance of the shares of Parent Common Stock to the members of the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Share Issuance Proposal”), (ii) approve the change of the corporate name of Parent (the “Name Change Proposal”), (iii) approve the reverse stock split of the Company (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”), (iv) approve, if required, (a) the terms of the Parent Preferred Stock to be issued to the current holders of the preferred membership interests of the Company and (b) the issuance of Parent Common Stock underlying the warrants, if any, being issued to any financing sources related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (v) approve such other matters as are determined to be required to complete the Closing (collectively, the “Parent Stockholder Matters” and such meeting, the “Parent Stockholders’ Meeting”). The Parent Stockholders’ Meeting shall be held as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act. Parent shall take reasonable measures to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on the date of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, or a date preceding the date on which the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting is scheduled, Parent reasonably believes that (i) it will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain the Required Parent Stockholder Vote, whether or not a quorum would be present or (ii) it will not have sufficient shares of Parent Common Stock represented (whether in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, Parent shall postpone or adjourn, or make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of, the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting as long as the date of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting is not postponed or adjourned more than an aggregate of 60 calendar days in connection with any postponements or adjournments. Parent agrees that in connection with the reverse stock split, it will obtain the consent of the Company prior to (a) fixing any range for the reverse split to be approved by Parent’s shareholders and (b) setting a final reverse stock split ratio to be effected by the Parent. Parent shall retain, and be responsible for the fees and expenses of, a nationally-recognized proxy solicitor, to be retained for the purpose of the solicitation of votes at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting and any postponements or adjournments thereof.

(b) Parent agrees that, subject to Section 5(c): (i) the Parent Board shall recommend that the holders of Parent Common Stock vote to approve the Parent Stockholder Matters, (ii) the Proxy Statement shall include a statement to the effect that the Parent Board recommends that Parent’s stockholders vote to approve the Parent Stockholder Matters (the recommendation of the Parent Board being referred to as the “Parent Board Recommendation”); and (iii) the Parent Board Recommendation shall not be withheld, amended, withdrawn or modified (and the Parent Board shall not publicly propose to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation) in a manner adverse to the Company (the actions set forth in the foregoing clause (iii), collectively, a “Parent Board Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.3(b), and subject to compliance with Section 4.4 and Section 5.3, if at any time prior to the approval of the Required Parent Stockholder Matters by the Required Parent Stockholder Vote, Parent receives a bona fide written Superior Offer,

-46-

the Parent Board may make a Parent Board Adverse Recommendation Change if, but only if, following the receipt of and on account of such Superior Offer, (i) the Parent Board determines in good faith, based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Parent Board Adverse Recommendation Change would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, (ii) Parent has, and has caused its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to, during the Parent Notice Period (as defined below), negotiate with the Company in good faith (if the Company so desires) to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Offer, and (iii) if after the Company shall have delivered to Parent a written offer to alter the terms or conditions of this Agreement during the Parent Notice Period, the Parent Board shall have determined in good faith, based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to withhold, amend, withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (after taking into account such alterations of the terms and conditions of this Agreement); provided that the Company receives written notice from Parent confirming that the Parent Board has determined to change its recommendation at least four Business Days in advance of such Parent Board Adverse Recommendation Change, (the “Parent Notice Period”), which notice shall include written copies of any relevant proposed transaction agreements with any party making a potential Superior Offer. In the event of any material amendment to any Superior Offer, Parent shall be required to provide the Company with notice of such material amendment and the Parent Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least two Business Days remain in the Parent Notice Period following such notification during which the Parties shall comply again with the requirements of this Section 5.3(c) and the Parent Board shall not make a Parent Board Adverse Recommendation Change prior to the end of such Parent Notice Period as so extended.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent or the Parent Board from (i) complying with Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, (ii) issuing a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or (iii) otherwise making any disclosure to the Parent stockholders; provided however, that in the case of the foregoing clause (iii) the Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to make such disclosure would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with applicable Law, including its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, further, that any such disclosures (other than a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act) shall be deemed to be a change of the Parent Board Recommendation unless the Parent Board expressly publicly reaffirms the Parent Board Recommendation (i) in such communication or (ii) within three Business Days after being requested in writing to do so by the Company.

5.4 Regulatory Approvals. Each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to file or otherwise submit, as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, all applications, notices, reports and other documents reasonably required to be filed by such Party with or otherwise submitted by such Party to any Governmental Body with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, and to submit promptly any additional information requested by any such Governmental Body.

5.5 Employee Benefits. For purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate, and level of benefits under the benefit plans, programs, contracts or arrangements of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Surviving Entity) providing benefits to any Continuing Employee after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Plans”), each employee who continues to be employed by the Surviving Entity or any of their respective Subsidiaries immediately following the Closing (“Continuing Employees”) shall be credited with his or her years of service with Parent, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for purposes of each Post-Closing Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to a Continuing Employee, Parent shall cause

-47-

all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Post-Closing Plan to be waived for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents except to the extent such conditions would not have been waived or satisfied under the employee benefit plan whose coverage is being replaced under the Post-Closing Plan, and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any eligible expenses incurred by a Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of such plan year in which coverage is replaced with coverage under a Post-Closing Plan to be taken into account under such Post-Closing Plan with respect to the plan year in which participation in such Post-Closing Plan begins for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for such plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Post-Closing Plan.

5.6 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) From the Effective Time through the sixth anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, each of Parent and the Surviving Entity shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director, manager, officer, fiduciary or agent of Parent or the Company, respectively (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (collectively, “Costs”), incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the D&O Indemnified Party is or was a director, manager, officer, fiduciary or agent of Parent or of the Company, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law. Each D&O Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from each of Parent and the Surviving Entity, jointly and severally, upon receipt by Parent or the Surviving Entity from the D&O Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any such person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to Parent, to the extent then required by the DGCL, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) The provisions of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors and officers of Parent that are presently set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent shall not be amended, modified or repealed for a period of six years from the Effective Time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were officers or directors of Parent. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Entity shall contain, and Parent shall cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Entity to so contain, provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors and officers as those presently set forth in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Parent.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, (i) the Surviving Entity shall fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of the Company to its D&O Indemnified Parties as of immediately prior to the Closing pursuant to any indemnification provisions under the Company’s Organizational Documents and pursuant to any indemnification agreements between the Company and such D&O Indemnified Parties, with respect to claims arising out of matters occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and (ii) Parent shall fulfill and honor in all respects the obligations of Parent to its D&O Indemnified Parties as of immediately prior to the Closing pursuant to any indemnification provisions under Parent’s Organizational Documents and pursuant to any indemnification agreements between Parent and such D&O Indemnified Parties, with respect to claims arising out of matters occurring at or prior to the Effective Time.

-48-

(d) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, with an effective date as of the Closing Date, on commercially available terms and conditions and with coverage limits customary for U.S. public companies similarly situated to Parent.

(e) From and after the Effective Time, Surviving Entity shall pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that are incurred by the persons referred to in this Section 5.6 in connection with their successful enforcement of the rights provided to such persons in this Section 5.6.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.6 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current and former officers and directors of Parent and the Company by Law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

(g) In the event Parent or the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.6. Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to perform all of the obligations of the Surviving Entity under this Section 5.6.

5.7 Additional Agreements. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be taken all actions necessary to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

At least thirty (30) days prior to the Anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall furnish the following information to Parent for each individual who, immediately after the Effective Time, will become subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Parent: (a) the number of shares of Company Equity owned by such individual and expected to be exchanged for shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger, and (b) the number of other derivative securities (if any) with respect to Company Equity owned by such individual and expected to be converted into shares of Parent Common Stock or derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

Any Company Dispute Notice shall identify in reasonable detail the nature of any proposed revisions to the calculation of Parent Net Cash set forth in the Parent Net Cash Schedule. If on or prior to the Parent Net Cash Response Date, (i) the Company notifies Parent in writing that it has no objections to the Parent Net Cash Schedule or (ii) the Company fails to deliver a Company Dispute Notice, then Parent Net Cash as set forth in the Parent Net Cash Schedule shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Parent Net Cash at the Anticipated Closing Date for purposes of this Agreement.

The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any Party does not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breaches such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that any other Party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

10.12 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the Parties and the D&O Indemnified Parties to the extent of their respective rights pursuant to Section 5.6) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
