The Company shall use its

4


 

reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the Commission the definitive Proxy Statement and to cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after the filing of the definitive Proxy Statement with the Commission. The Company shall take any action required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with this Agreement. The Company shall notify the Purchasers promptly of the receipt of any written comments from the Commission or its staff and of any request by the Commission or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and shall supply the Purchasers with copies of all correspondence between the Company or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the Commission or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement. Prior to filing or mailing the preliminary or definitive Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to the comments of the Commission with respect thereto, the Company (i) shall provide the Purchasers a reasonable opportunity to review such document or response and (ii) shall consider in good faith comments proposed by the Purchasers on such document or response.

(a)(i) The Board of Directors shall elect, (A) effective as of the Tranche 1 Closing, one designee of each of (x) Caligan and its Affiliates and (y) Velan and its Affiliates (each of (x) and (y), a “Purchaser” for purposes of this Section 4.14), which Caligan designee shall initially be Mike Kaseta and which Velan designee shall initially be Adam Morgan (or such other individuals designated by the applicable Purchasers (including in the event any of its designees is unable to serve, or no longer serves, as a director for any reason), which other individuals are acceptable to the Company, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) to the Board of Directors of the Company, to serve as a Class I Director and a Class III Director, respectively (as such term is defined in the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation as filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware) with such designee’s initial terms expiring at the Company’s 2023 and 2025 annual meetings of stockholders, respectively, and (B) effective as of the Tranche 2 Closing, Jason Werner (or such other individual designated by Velan and its Affiliates, which other individual is acceptable to the Company, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that such designee must be an “independent director” as defined in applicable Nasdaq and Commission rules and regulations) to the Board of Directors of the Company, to

5


 

serve as a Class II Director with an initial term expiring at the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, and (ii) effective as of the Tranche 2 Closing, Ross DeMont (or such other individual designated by Caligan and its Affiliates, which other individual is acceptable to the Company, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) shall have been appointed as an observer to the Board of Directors, with the rights and subject to the limitations of Section 4.14(b), and the Board of Directors shall elect Ross DeMont (or such other individual designated by Caligan and its Affiliates, which other individual is acceptable to the Company, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld provided, however, that such designee must be an “independent director” as defined in applicable Nasdaq and Commission rules and regulations) to the Board of Directors of the Company to be effective upon Stockholder Approval (collectively, the “Board Representation Right”). Each Purchaser shall retain its Board Representation Right for so long as such Purchaser owns 50% of the shares of Common Stock (calculated on an as-converted basis) such Purchaser acquired pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that, notwithstanding any Purchaser’s retention of such shares, if any Purchaser’s ownership position in the Company is materially reduced, whether through sales by such Purchaser or additional issuances by the Company, such Board Representation Right shall be concomitantly reduced in any year if required by applicable Nasdaq rules. The Board of Directors shall also accept the resignations of (i) two incumbent directors effective as of the Tranche 1 Closing, (ii) one incumbent director effective as of the Tranche 2 Closing and (iii) one incumbent director effective upon Stockholder Approval, such that the size of the Board of Directors shall not be increased in connection with the director appointments pursuant to the Board Representation Right.  Further, the Board of Directors shall reduce to no more than seven directors, including the Purchaser-designated directors, no later than the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”), whereat the Company shall submit to its stockholders a proposal to declassify the structure of the Board of Directors on a phased-in basis, such that, if approved by the Company’s stockholders, directors elected at and subsequent to the 2024 Annual Meeting shall be elected to one-year terms and the entire Board of Directors shall be annually elected beginning with the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Declassification Proposal”). The Board of Directors shall recommend in favor of, and use its reasonable best efforts to solicit stockholder approval of the Declassification Proposal at the 2024 Annual Meeting and to have all directors and executive officers of the Company vote all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them and over which they have voting control in favor of the Declassification Proposal. Immediately following the appointment of each Purchaser designee to the Board of Directors, the Company shall (a) add such designee as a covered party under the Company’s current director and officer insurance policy, and (b) deliver to such designee an indemnification agreement, duly executed by the Company and in the same form entered into by the Company with each of the Company’s other directors.

2.14 The last sentence of Section 4.14(b) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:

6

Miscellaneous

6.1 Termination. This Amendment shall automatically terminate and be of no effect if the Tranche 2 Closing has not been consummated on or before June 15, 2023; provided,  however, that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by any other party (or parties). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and each Purchaser, with respect to such Purchaser only and

7


 

without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between the Company and any other Purchaser, may, by mutual written agreement, extend the term of this Amendment.

6.2 Continued Validity of Purchase Agreement.  Except as amended hereby, the Purchase Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as originally constituted and is ratified and affirmed by the parties hereto.

6.3 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Amendment and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

6.4 Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.

6.5 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Amendment is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.6 of the Purchase Agreement.

6.6 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Amendment shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Amendment (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Amendment and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

6.8 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth in this Amendment or the Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is

8


 

hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

6.9 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Amendment, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
