The Company shall timely pay all such amounts shown as due on such Returns. All such Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the past practice of the Company and each Company Subsidiary, except as required by applicable law.

(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Acquiror, the Company and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by another Party, in connection with the filing of Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any action or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such action or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Acquiror, the Company and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Acquiror, any extensions thereof), and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any governmental entity and (B) to give the other Parties reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Acquiror, the Company and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, as the case may be, shall allow the other Parties to take possession of such books and records at such other Party’s expense.

(d) Tax Claims. If, subsequent to the Closing, any of Acquiror, the Company or the Securityholders’ Representative Committee receives notice of a claim by any Tax Authority that, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment hereunder (a “Tax Claim”), then within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice, Acquiror, the Company or the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, as the case may be, shall give written notice of such Tax Claim to the other Parties. The Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, however, that if the resolution of any such Tax Claim (or any portion thereof) may affect the Taxes or tax attributes of the Company for a post-Closing tax period, then Acquiror shall control the conduct and resolution of such Tax Claim (or portion thereof) and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such Tax Claim, and Acquiror shall not settle such Tax Claim without the written consent of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Securityholders’ Representative Committee and Acquiror shall jointly control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”). If the Securityholders’ Representative Committee elects not to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or to participate in the conduct and resolution of any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Period, the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall notify Acquiror in writing and Acquiror shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of such Tax Claim; provided, however, that Acquiror shall keep the Securityholders’ Representative Committee informed of all developments on a timely basis and Acquiror shall not resolve such Tax Claim in a manner that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Company Securityholders’ indemnification obligations under this Agreement without Securityholders’ Representative Committee’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. With respect to any Tax Claim actually controlled by the Securityholders’ Representative Committee pursuant to this paragraph, the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall keep Acquiror informed of all developments on a timely basis and Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall not resolve such Tax Claim in a manner that would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the Indemnifying Persons without Acquiror’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each Party shall bear its own costs incurred in participating in any proceeding relating to any Tax Claim.

Subsidiary) is or was a member, on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or foreign law or regulation, (iii) all Taxes of any person imposed on any Indemnified Person as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation as the result of transactions or events occurring with respect to the Company or a Company Subsidiary on or prior to the Closing Date, (iv) all employer Taxes associated with payments in respect of Company Options, exercises of Company Options, or other transaction-related compensation arising in contemplation of, or in connection with, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Option Agreement, (v) all Taxes of the Company and any Company Subsidiary attributable to the Divestiture, (vi) any reduction in the total amount of Company NOLs determined as of the Closing Date (prior to the application of any usage limitations under the Code and its regulations) to an amount less than the difference between $[*] and the aggregate amount of income and gain recognized by the Company in connection with the Divestiture (not to exceed $[*]), and any reduction in the actual amount of orphan drug and research and development tax credits of the Company determined as of the Closing Date below $[*] (any such reduction of Company NOLs or Tax credits, a “Tax Benefit Reduction”), (vii) any limitation on the Indemnified Persons’ ability to use Company NOLs or tax credits (an “Additional Limitation”) under Sections 382 or 383 of the Code (or analogous state income tax laws) resulting solely from an “ownership change” of the Company within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Code occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, other than (A) such a limitation resulting solely from the closing of the Merger or (B) such a limitation, if any, resulting solely from execution of the Option Agreement, and (viii) the breach of any representation or warranty pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof.

(f) Calculation of Certain Tax-Related Damages.

(i) The Damages resulting from a Tax Benefit Reduction or an Additional Limitation (each, a “Tax Benefit Loss”) shall be equal to the actual increase in any Tax liability of any Indemnified Person (a “Tax Increase”) for a Tax year ending on or before December 31, 2026 (the “Tax Benefit Survival Date”), resulting from such Tax Benefit Loss (as compared to such Tax liability if such Tax Benefit Loss had not occurred), and shall be offset promptly after an Indemnified Person pays such additional Tax liability. Acquiror will determine each Tax Increase in reasonable good faith and shall provide its calculation showing reasonable detail to support the amount of the Tax Increase to the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, subject to customary confidentiality and nondisclosure restrictions.

(ii) In the event the Securityholders’ Representative Committee disputes any calculation described in clause (i) above, Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee will work together in mutual good faith to resolve their disagreement. If such disagreement cannot be resolved after thirty (30) days, Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee will submit such dispute to an independent, mutually agreed nationally recognized accounting firm for resolution, and such firm’s resolution shall be applied by Acquiror and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee.

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 80

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Tax shall not be taken into account when calculating Damages resulting from an increase in a different type of Tax that would not otherwise be offset by available Company NOLs. For example, the economic benefit of Company NOLs as determined for federal income tax purposes shall not be considered when calculating Damages attributable to an increase in California property Tax, even though such Company NOLs may represent a present or future economic benefit to Acquiror. Similarly (as an additional example) the economic benefit to an Indemnified Person of any Company Tax credits shall not be considered when calculating Damages attributable to an increase in Company employment Taxes.

(g) Limitations on Tax Indemnification; Method for Recovery. The sole remedy available to the Indemnified Persons for Damages indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be to offset (subject to Section 8.4) an amount equal to such Damages against any and all amounts payable to the Company Securityholders pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (but subject to the first sentence of this Section 5.9(g), the Company Securityholders’ obligations pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall not be subject to any of the limitations on indemnification set forth in Article VIII (and, for the avoidance of doubt shall be uncapped and shall not be subject to any deductible or basket), provided that Damages resulting solely due to an Additional Limitation shall be subject to the Offset Cap. All of the Company Securityholders’ indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall survive until and terminate upon the [*] anniversary of the Closing Date (such date, the “Tax Survival Date”), except that (x) the obligation to indemnify for Damages attributable to a Tax Benefit Loss shall continue until the Tax Benefit Survival Date, and (y) if a claim for indemnification is made prior to the Tax Survival Date or the Tax Benefit Survival Date, as applicable, the obligation of the Company Securityholders pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall continue until such claim is fully resolved.

Acquiror shall pay [*] of such tail policy at the Closing and [*] percent ([*]%) of the cost of such tail policy shall be treated as a Transaction Expense of the Company hereunder.

(b) For a period of [*] years from and after the Closing Date, Acquiror and the Surviving Corporation agree to fulfill and honor the obligations of the Company with respect to the Company’s directors and officers pursuant to the indemnification provisions in the Company Certificate of Incorporation, the Company Bylaws and/or each indemnification agreement between the Company and any of its directors or officers, in each case as in effect on the Termination Right Lapse Date.

Subject to the terms hereof, the Company shall use, and the Company shall cause its Company Subsidiaries to use, their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain at the earliest practicable date all consents, waivers and approvals from, and provide all notices to, all Persons that are not a Governmental Entity that are listed on Section 2.6 of the Disclosure Schedule.

The Company Securityholders acknowledge and agree that, if the Surviving Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Corporation as an Indemnified Person) Acquiror shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the stock of the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach. For the avoidance of doubt, indemnification for breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 2.11 hereof shall be subject to Section 5.9 and not this Section 8.1.

8.3 Damages Basket; Other Limitations.

(a) Subject to Section 8.3(b), no indemnification shall be available under Section 8.2(i) unless and until all Damages exceed $[*] (the “Basket”), in which case indemnification shall be available for all Damages; provided, however, the Basket shall not apply with respect to any Damages arising from or out of (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation or (ii) inaccuracies in or breaches of any of the Specified Representations.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.9 hereof, if the Merger is consummated, recovery pursuant to the Offset Cap shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Indemnified Persons for any claims by the Indemnified Persons against the Company Securityholders, or otherwise, arising out of or related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however that recourse to the Offset Cap and the Additional Offset Cap shall be available for Damages pursuant to Section 5.9 and for Damages resulting from or arising out of [*] (collectively, “Specified Damages”); provided further, however, that the Additional Offset Cap shall only be available for any claims made by an Indemnified Person during the Additional Offset Claim Period, unless, at any time prior to the expiration of the Additional Offset Claim Period, any Indemnified Person delivers to the Securityholders’ Representative Committee a written notice in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.4(a) alleging that such Indemnified Person has suffered or incurred any Specified Damages and asserting a claim for recovery under Section 5.9 or Section 8.2 in respect thereof, in which event the Additional Offset Cap shall remain available for such Specified Damages until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no recovery or other limitations with respect to claims for indemnification involving fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

(c) Damages that may be recovered pursuant to the Offset Cap and/or the Additional Offset Cap shall take account of and be reduced by (i) any amounts actually received by the Indemnified Persons pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any Third Party, and (ii) the amount of any insurance proceeds, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by the Indemnified Person in respect thereof (each Person named and source identified in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Collateral Source”). If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under Section 8.2 is determined after payment by the Company Securityholders of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Person under this Article VIII, the Indemnified Persons shall repay to the Company

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 92

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Securityholders, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Company Securityholders would not have had to pay pursuant to this Section 8.3(c) had such determination been made at the time of such payment. The Indemnified Persons shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Damages that may be recovered.

(d) Each Company Securityholder waives, and acknowledges and agrees that such Company Securityholder shall not have and shall not exercise or assert (or attempt to exercise or assert), any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Surviving Corporation in connection with any indemnification obligation to which such Company Securityholder may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, such waiver shall not apply to any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Surviving Corporation contemplated by Section 5.10.

8.4 Adjustment Pursuant to Offsets.

(a) In order to seek indemnification under Section 5.9 or Section 8.2, the Indemnified Person shall deliver to the Securityholders’ Representative Committee a certificate signed by any officer of Acquiror (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after Acquiror has knowledge of a claim that may result in indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII; provided, that any delay in providing such notice shall not result in the Indemnified Person losing its rights under this Article VIII except to the extent (and only to the extent that) the Securityholders’ Representative Committee demonstrates that the defense of such a claim is materially prejudiced thereby:

(i) stating the facts or circumstances giving rise to such right to an indemnity;

(ii) stating the basis for such claim for indemnification, and the Damages resulting therefrom, if quantifiable (the “Claimed Amount”); and

(iii) specifying in reasonable detail (based upon the information then possessed by Acquiror) the individual items of such Damages included in the amount so stated, and the nature of the claim to which such Damages are related, and the provision of this Agreement which gives rise to the claim.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Claimed Amount may be increased by Acquiror as additional information regarding any claim for indemnification becomes available to Acquiror, and the information provided pursuant to clause (iii) above shall not limit Acquiror’s ability to increase the Claimed Amount.

(b) Acquiror shall be entitled to retain and setoff against any Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration payments and/or Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments the Claimed Amounts set forth in Claim Notices that have been delivered prior to the date such payments are to be made, and that have not been finally resolved as of such date, until such time as such claim is finally resolved. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration payments and Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments also are subject to setoff pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Development Agreement (subject to the limitations set forth therein).

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 93

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

(c) The Securityholders’ Representative Committee may, at any time on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following its receipt of a Claim Notice (the “Objection Period”), object (a “Claim Objection”) to a claim made in such Claim Notice by delivering written notice to Acquiror. The Claim Objection shall set forth in reasonable detail the reasons for the objection to such claim and the portion of the Claimed Amount which is disputed. If Acquiror does not receive a Claim Objection in respect of any Claim Notice within the Objection Period in accordance with this Section 8.4(c), or receives a notice agreeing that the Claimed Amount is owed, Acquiror may permanently retain the Claimed Amount withheld from any Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration payments and/or Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments, if such amount has not been so withheld, Acquiror may offset and permanently retain the Claimed Amount from the next payment of Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration or Post-Closing Merger Consideration. If Acquiror receives a Claim Objection in respect of any Claim Notice within the Objection Period in accordance with this section in which a portion, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is agreed to be owed (such amount, the “Agreed Amount”), Acquiror may permanently retain the Agreed Amount withheld from any Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration payments and/or Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments, or, if such amount has not been so withheld, Acquiror may offset and permanently retain the Agreed Amount from the next payment of Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration or Post-Closing Merger Consideration.

(d) During the twenty (20) day period following the delivery of a Claim Objection in accordance with Section 8.3(b), the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and the Indemnified Person shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute. If the dispute is not resolved with such twenty (20) day period, either the Securityholders’ Representative Committee or the Indemnified Person may bring suit in the Delaware Courts. Following the resolution of the dispute (whether by mutual written agreement or by final judicial decision), Acquiror may (i) permanently retain amounts that have been withheld from any Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration payments and/or Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments, (ii) permanently retain and offset from the next payment of Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration or Post-Closing Merger Consideration amounts that have not been so withheld or (iii) pay in accordance with Section 1.17 amounts that have been so withheld, in each case in accordance with the resolution of such dispute.

8.5 Securityholders’ Representative Committee.

(a) Each Company Securityholder by virtue of the approval and adoption of this Agreement or other appointment authorization documentation (other than such Company Stockholders, if any, who have perfected appraisal rights under Delaware Laws or California Laws) or by accepting any consideration payable hereunder shall be deemed to have agreed to appoint [*] (as Chair), [*] and [*] as its agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Securityholders’ Representative Committee”) for and on behalf of the Company Securityholders to act for the Company Securityholders with regard to matters pertaining to Sections 1.1, 1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 5.9, 5.16 and 7.3 and Articles VIII and IX, give and receive notices and communications or permit

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 94

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Acquiror offsets against Post-Closing Merger Consideration payments in satisfaction of claims by any Indemnified Person, object to such payments, agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to such claims, assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts with respect to, any other claim by any Indemnified Person against any Company Securityholder or by any Company Securityholder against any Indemnified Person or any dispute between any Indemnified Person and any such Company Securityholder, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement. Such agency may be changed by the Company Securityholders with the right to a majority of the Post-Closing Merger Consideration from time-to-time; provided, that no such change in agency shall in any way negate or otherwise affect prior consents, approvals or actions by the Securityholders’ Representative Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securityholders’ Representative Committee may resign at any time by providing written notice of intent to resign to the Company Securityholders, which resignation shall be effective upon the earlier of (A) thirty (30) calendar days following delivery of such written notice or (B) the appointment of a successor by the Company Securityholders with the right to a majority of the sum of the Non-Contingent Holdback Consideration and the Post-Closing Merger Consideration from time-to-time. No bond shall be required of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, and the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall not receive any compensation for its services.

(b) By executing this Agreement under the heading “Securityholders’ Representative Committee,” each of [*] (as Chair), [*] and [*] hereby (i) accepts his appointment and authorization to act as a member of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee as attorney-in-fact and agent on behalf of the Company Securityholders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) agrees to perform its obligations under, and otherwise comply with, this Section 8.5.

(c) The Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Securityholders’ Representative Committee while acting in good faith, even if such act or omission constitutes some form of negligence on the part of such Securityholders’ Representative Committee. The Company Securityholders shall severally indemnify and hold each member of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without bad faith or intentional misconduct on the part of such member of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties hereunder. The Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall only have the duties expressly stated in this Agreement and shall have no other duty, express or implied. A reserve has been established pursuant to the Option Agreement (the “Reserve”) to fund potential expenses of the Securityholders’ Representative in carrying out its authorized duties. The Securityholders’ Representative Committee may engage attorneys, accountants and other professionals and experts at the cost and expense of the Company Securityholders and paid out of the Reserve. On the final Survival Date, the Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall release all remaining funds with respect to the Reserve held by the Securityholders’ Representative Committee (and not used by the Securityholders’ Representative in accordance with this Section 8.5(c) or subject to a pending indemnification claim of an Indemnified Person) to the Company Securityholders in accordance with the Liquidation Rights.

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 95

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

(d) The Securityholders’ Representative Committee may in good faith rely conclusively upon information, reports, statements and opinions prepared or presented by such professionals, and any action taken by the Securityholders’ Representative Committee based on such reliance shall be deemed conclusively to have been taken in good faith. A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, including an amendment, extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to its authority hereunder, shall constitute a decision of the Company Securityholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company Securityholders.

(e) Acquiror, Sub, the Surviving Corporation and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the power and authority of the Securityholders’ Representative without independent investigation.

(f) The Securityholders’ Representative Committee shall at all times have a person designated as the “Chairman” for the purposes of Section 5.16(e)(i).

8.6 Third Party Claims. In the event of the assertion or commencement by any third party of any claim or Proceeding (whether against the Surviving Corporation, against Acquiror or against any other Person) with respect to which any of the Company Securityholders may become obligated to hold harmless, indemnify, compensate or reimburse any Indemnified Person pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnified Person shall give written notice thereof to the Securityholders’ Representative Committee, and thereafter shall keep the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and the party, or parties, from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”) reasonably informed with respect thereto; provided, however, that failure of the Indemnified Person to give the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and Indemnitor notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent (and only to the extent) that such failure materially prejudices the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such claim against a third party. The Indemnitor may, within ten (10) days after receiving the notice from Indemnified Person as set forth herein, give written notice to the Indemnified Person stating that the Indemnitor agrees to be liable for all Damages of the Indemnified Person in connection with such third party claim and intends to defend against such claim at the Indemnitor’s own cost and expense (the “Defense Notice”). If an Indemnitor properly and timely delivers a Defense Notice, counsel for the defense shall be selected by the Indemnitor (subject to the consent of such Indemnified Person which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume such defense; provided, however, that from and after the delivery of the notice of a claim by Indemnified Person and until such time as the Indemnitor delivers a Defense Notice, the Indemnified Person may take such actions related to the defense of such claim as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to defend such claim, and any such actions shall be at the Indemnitor’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume or continue the defense of any Proceeding if (i) the Indemnified Person shall have one or more legal or equitable defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Person, counsel for the Indemnitor

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 96

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Person because such interests could be in conflict with those of the Indemnitor, (ii) such Proceeding is reasonably likely to cause a material and adverse effect on any other matter beyond the scope or limits of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnitor, (iii) the Indemnitor shall not have assumed the defense of the Proceeding in a timely fashion (but in any event at least 5 days prior to the deadline for the filing of any necessary filings or pleadings), or shall at any point cease to actively and diligently conduct the defense of the Proceeding or (iv) the third party claim that is the subject of the Proceeding relates to, or otherwise arises in connection with, Taxes or any criminal or regulatory enforcement action. If the Indemnitor shall assume the defense of any Proceeding, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to participate in any Proceeding at its expense, and the Indemnitor shall not settle such Proceeding unless the settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff of a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Person, from all liability with respect to the matters that are subject to such Proceeding, or otherwise shall have been approved reasonably by the Indemnified Person. In the event that the Indemnitor does not elect to, or is not permitted to assume sole control over the defense of a Proceeding pursuant to this Section 8.6, and the Indemnified Person proceeds with the defense of any such claim or Proceeding, (i) all reasonable expenses relating to the defense of such claim or Proceeding shall be borne and paid exclusively by the Indemnitor, (ii) each Company Securityholder shall make available to the Indemnified Person any documents and materials in his possession or control that may be necessary to the defense of such claim or Proceeding, and (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such claim or Legal Proceeding with the consent of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee; provided, however, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

9.2 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Articles, Sections or Exhibits, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of, or an Exhibit to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The phrases “provided to,” “furnished to,” “made available” and phrases of similar import when used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, shall mean that a true, correct and complete copy of the information or material referred to has been provided to the Party to whom such information or material is to be provided. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires: (a) words of any gender include each other gender; (b) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively; and (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereunder” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement. All references herein to “$” or “Dollars” shall mean US Dollars. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase does not mean simply “if.” All references herein to the Company’s business shall be deemed to refer to the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

9.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed manually, by electronic transmission or by facsimile by the Parties, in any number of counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties; it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart.

9.4 Entire Agreement; Parties in Interest. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including all the exhibits attached hereto and the Disclosure Schedule, (a) constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, except for the Confidentiality Agreement and the Letters of Transmittal, which shall continue in full force and effect, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement, in accordance with their respective terms and (b) are not intended to confer, and shall not be construed as conferring, upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder (except that Article VIII is intended to benefit Indemnified Persons).

9.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law, or otherwise by any of the Parties, without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 99

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Acquiror may assign this Agreement to any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror without the prior consent of the Company; provided, however, that Acquiror shall remain liable for all of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding two sentences, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

9.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the Parties. The Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.7 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any Party to this Agreement of any covenant, obligation or other provision set forth in this Agreement for the benefit of another Party to this Agreement, such other Party shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it) to (a) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach, and the Parties hereby waive the requirement of any posting of a bond in connection with the remedies described herein.

9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of law. Each of the Parties hereby expressly and irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the jurisdiction of the any other competent court of the State of Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”), preserving, however, all rights of removal to such federal court under 28 U.S.C. 1441, in respect of all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including resolution of disputes under Section 8.4), and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and the documents referred to in this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, that it is not subject to such jurisdiction, or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts, or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate, or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the Parties irrevocably agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in the Delaware Courts. The Parties hereby consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of

[*]    Confidential treatment requested. 100

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

such Parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.1 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees that each of the other Parties shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding for enforcement of any order or judgment entered by a Delaware Court in any other court having jurisdiction.

9.9 Rules of Construction. The Parties have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, hereby waive, with respect to this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule and each Exhibit attached hereto, the application of any Legal Requirement, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document.

9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

9.11 Attorney Fees. If any Party to this Agreement brings an action to enforce its rights under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with such action, including any appeal of such action.

9.12 Waiver of Conflicts. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, stockholders, partners, officers, employees, and Affiliates that the Company is the client of DLA Piper LLP (US) (“Firm”), and not any of its individual Company Securityholders. After the Closing, it is possible that Firm will represent the Company Securityholders, the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and their respective Affiliates (individually and collectively, the “Seller Group”) in connection with the transactions contemplated herein or in any claims made pursuant to this Agreement. Acquiror and the Company hereby agree that the Firm (or any successor) may represent the Seller Group in the future in connection with issues that may arise under this Agreement and any claims that may be made hereunder. The Firm (or any successor) may serve as counsel to all or a portion of the Seller Group or any director, stockholder, partner, officer, employee, representative, or Affiliate of the Seller Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of the Parties consents thereto, and waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each such Party shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each of the Parties acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary,

that it has been carefully considered, and that the Parties have consulted with counsel or have been advised they should do so in this connection. Communications between the Company and the Firm relating to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, the Option Agreement, the Development Agreement and the License Agreement (as defined in the Option Agreement) (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not communications between the Company and the Firm relating to the Product) will become the property of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee and the Company Securityholders following the Closing and will not be disclosed to Acquiror without the consent of the Securityholders’ Representative Committee.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION

Internal Revenue Service Circular 230 Notice

TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE CIRCULAR 230, YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT: (A) ANY DISCUSSION OF UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX ISSUES IN THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE USED, AND CANNOT BE USED, BY HOLDERS FOR THE PURPOSE OF AVOIDING PENALTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON HOLDERS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED; (B) SUCH DISCUSSION IS WRITTEN TO SUPPORT THE PROMOTION OR MARKETING OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR MATTERS ADDRESSED HEREIN; AND (C) HOLDERS SHOULD SEEK ADVICE BASED ON THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES FROM AN INDEPENDENT TAX ADVISOR.

United States federal income tax law generally requires that if your shares are accepted for payment, you or your assignee (in either case, the “Payee”), must provide the Paying Agent (the “Payor”) with the Payee’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”), which, in the case of a Payee who is an individual, generally is the Payee’s social security number. If the Payor is not provided with the correct TIN or an adequate basis for an exemption, the Payee may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and backup withholding in an amount equal to 28% of the gross proceeds received pursuant to the Merger. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of a person subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained, provided that the required information is timely provided to the IRS.

To prevent backup withholding, each U.S. Payee must provide such Payee’s correct TIN by completing the “Substitute Form W-9” set forth herein, certifying that (i) the TIN provided is correct, (ii) (a) the Payee is exempt from backup withholding, (b) the Payee has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that such Payee is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) the IRS has notified the payee that such Payee is no longer subject to backup withholding, and (iii) the Payee is a U.S. person for U.S. tax purposes (including a U.S. resident alien).

If the Payee does not have a TIN, such Payee should consult the enclosed Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9 (the “Guidelines”) for instructions on applying for a TIN, write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN provided on the attached Substitute Form W-9, and must also complete the attached “Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number” in order to prevent backup withholding. . If such Payee does not provide a TIN to the Payor by the time of payment, backup withholding will apply.

If the Shares are held in more than one name or are not held in the name of the actual owner, consult the Guidelines for information on which TIN to report.

Exempt Payees (including, among others, all corporations and certain foreign individuals) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. To prevent possible erroneous backup withholding, an exempt Payee should check the “Exempt from backup withholding” box on the Substitute Form W-9. See the Guidelines for additional instructions. In order for a nonresident alien or foreign entity to qualify as exempt, such person must submit an appropriate and properly completed Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY, as the case may be, signed under penalties of perjury attesting to such exempt status. Such forms may be obtained from the Paying Agent or the IRS at its Internet website: xxx.xxx.xxx.
