Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, as a result thereof, Bionik filed with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing such restatements (the “Restatement”); and
WHEREAS, Bionik intends to file amended Quarterly Reports to reflect the Restatement (the “Amendments”); and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to amend the Merger Agreement and waive any and all potential or actual breaches and/or defaults by Bionik of its representations, warranties and/or covenants in the Merger Agreement as a result of the Restatement and the Amendments pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, and to confirm the parties’ intention to proceed towards the Closing.
