NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term “Obligations”, as used in the Loan Agreement, shall include without limitation all of Borrower’s indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement and all documents and agreements relating hereto, and this Agreement and all documents and agreements relating hereto are “Loan Documents” for all purposes of the Loan Agreement and this Agreement.

2. Acknowledgements. Borrower acknowledges that: (i) the Specified Default has occurred and presently exists under the Loan Documents, and the same is a material Event of Default, (ii) the Obligations (including the Existing Debt) are due and owing from Borrower to PFG without any defense, offset or counterclaim of any kind; (iii) pursuant to the Loan Documents, PFG has a valid, perfected first-priority (subject to Permitted Liens to the extent the Loan Agreement expressly allows them to be prior to the security interest of PFG) security interest in all of the Borrower’s present and future Collateral; (iv) subject to the forbearance agreement set forth in Section 3 below, PFG has the right to take immediate possession of, and foreclose upon, all of the Collateral, pursuant to the Loan Documents and to exercise all other rights and remedies granted to it under the Loan Documents and by law; (v) PFG is not obligated to make any additional Loans or other credit extensions to the Borrower, under the Loan Agreement or otherwise, and (vi) PFG is not agreeing in any way to waive the Specified Default as a result of this Agreement or the performance by the parties of their respective obligations hereunder.

3. Forbearance; Forbearance Period.

(a) Forbearance. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and subject to performance by Borrower of all of the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents after the date hereof, PFG shall forbear from exercising any remedies that PFG has against Borrower as a result of the occurrence of the Specified Default, until the earlier of the following dates (the “Forbearance Period”): (i) the Scheduled Expiration Date, (ii) the date on which Senior Lender’s agreement to forbear from exercising its rights or remedies pursuant the Senior Lender Forbearance Agreement ends, or (iii) the date any Additional Default shall occur. In agreeing to forbear from exercising its remedies, PFG is not waiving the Specified Defaults or any rights or remedies in connection therewith, all of which are expressly reserved. Upon the expiration of the Forbearance Period, PFG may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, exercise any and all rights or remedies in connection with the Specified Defaults, without further notice. This forbearance shall not be deemed a continuing waiver or forbearance with respect to any Event of Default of a nature similar to the Specified Default that may have occurred before or may occur after the date of this Agreement.

(b) Additional Default. As used in this Agreement, “Additional Default” means any of the following (but not including the Specified Defaults): (i) any default, Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any breach of any term or provision of this Agreement, and any default or Event of Default which has occurred as of this date other than the Specified Defaults), or (ii) any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, PFG may, in its sole and absolute discretion, waive an Additional Default, but only in a specific written waiver signed by PFG, and no such waiver shall imply or constitute an agreement on the part of PFG to any other Additional Defaults, whether or not similar to the Additional Default waived. Borrower agrees to give PFG immediate written notice of any Additional Default. The occurrence of an Additional Default shall constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, without the necessity of any notice or the passage of any time period.

(c) Scheduled Expiration Date. As used in this Agreement, “Scheduled Expiration Date” means February 15, 2019; provided that if and only if the LOI/Term Sheet Conditions are fully and timely satisfied, thereafter “Scheduled Expiration Date” shall mean February 28, 2019; provided further that if and only if the LOI/Term Sheet Conditions and the Confirmation Conditions are both fully and timely satisfied, thereafter “Scheduled Expiration Date” shall mean April 15, 2019.

4. Senior Lender Forbearance. Borrower covenants and agrees that, within two Business Days after the date hereof, (i) Senior Lender shall agree in writing to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies under the Senior Loan Documents with respect to defaults and events of defaults thereunder that exist as of the date of such agreement, pursuant to a forbearance agreement between Senior Lender and Borrower acceptable to PFG in its sole discretion (the “Senior Lender Forbearance Agreement”) and (ii) Borrower shall provide PFG with evidence thereof satisfactory to PFG in its sole discretion. Without limitation on what constitutes an Event of Default under the existing terms of the Loan Agreement, the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Senior Loan Documents with respect to which Senior Lender has not agreed to forbear pursuant to the Senior Lender Forbearance Agreement shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Loan Agreement and Additional Default hereunder.

5. Borrower Sale. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that:

(a) Receipt of LOI/Term Sheet; LOI/Term Sheet Conditions. After the date hereof and on or before February 15, 2019, Borrower shall (i) receive either a signed letter of intent or signed bona fide term sheet (the “LOI/Term Sheet”) for the sale of all or substantially all of Borrower’s equity securities or assets to buyers satisfactory to PFG in all respects with an anticipated closing date of on or before April 15, 2019 (the “Borrower Sale”) and (ii) provide PFG with a copy of the LOI/Term Sheet and such other evidence of the occurrence of the requirements of clause (i) above as is satisfactory to PFG in its sole discretion (collectively, the “LOI/Term Sheet Conditions”).

(b) Receipt of Confirmation; Confirmation Conditions. After February 15, 2019 and on or before February 28, 2019, Borrower shall provide PFG with evidence satisfactory to PFG in its sole discretion that, after February 15, 2019, the buyers outlined in the LOI/Term Sheet have provided written confirmation that such buyers and Borrower have agreed to proceed with the Borrower Sale and that any due diligence required by such buyers in connection therewith has begun (collectively, the “Confirmation Conditions”).

“(i) commencing on the first Monday following the date of the Fourth Modification and continuing every Monday of each calendar week thereafter, by 5:00 PM (Boston, Massachusetts time) of each such Monday, (y) weekly cash flow projections for at least the immediately succeeding fourteen (14) week period (inclusive of the calendar week during which such projections are hereby required to be provided) that includes all expenses and foreseeable expenses, and (z) for the prior week, an actual results variance report that compares the projections that had been made for that week to the actual results for such week and sets forth any material (as determined by PFG in its reasonable judgment) variance; all in form and substance acceptable to PFG in all respects (including without limitation presentation in Excel spreadsheet format and explanations of any such material variances).”

9. Fee. Borrower shall pay PFG a fee of $75,000 in connection with this Agreement, which fee is fully earned and nonrefundable as of the date hereof but shall be due and payable by Borrower upon the earliest to occur of: (i) April 15, 2019, (ii) repayment of the monetary Obligations, and (iii) the occurrence of any Additional Default.

10. Consent and Reaffirmation. Concurrently herewith, Borrower shall cause VIVOPHARM PTY LTD to execute and deliver to PFG the Consent and Reaffirmation attached hereto as Schedule 1.

11. Ratification by Borrower of PFG’s First Priority Security Interest in Collateral. Borrower hereby confirms and ratifies PFG’s first priority lien and security interest in and to all Collateral. Borrower shall execute such security agreements, financing statements and other documents as PFG may from time to time reasonably request to carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Agreement. Borrower authorizes PFG to file such financing statements and amendments relating to the Collateral. Such liens and security interests shall secure all of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Agreement.

12. Receipt and Application of Payments. All payments hereunder and under the Loan Agreement may, at PFG’s option, be applied to the Obligations in such order and manner as PFG shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Acceptance by PFG of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be an Event of Default pursuant to this Agreement and the Loan Agreement. To the extent that PFG receives any payment or benefit and such payment or benefit, or any part thereof, is required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy or insolvency statute or law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or benefit, the Existing Debt, or any part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or benefit had not been made, shall accrue interest at the highest rate applicable to any portion thereof, shall be secured by the Collateral and payable on demand.

13. Costs and Expenses. Without limiting the provisions of the Loan Agreement, Borrower shall reimburse PFG for all of the costs, fees and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) which PFG has incurred or hereafter incurs in connection with the negotiation, drafting or enforcement of this Agreement, or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, whether or not there is any litigation between the parties hereto.

14. Representations and Warranties. Borrower represents and warrants to PFG as follows:

(a) No Event of Default or failure of condition has occurred or exists, or would exist with notice or lapse of time or both under the Loan Agreement, other than the Specified Default.

(b) The Forbearance Period granted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is reasonable.

(c) All representations and warranties of Borrower in this Agreement and the Loan Agreement (as amended by this Agreement) and other Loan Documents are true and correct as of the date hereof, and shall survive the execution of this Agreement.

(d) PFG has not at any time directed or participated in any aspect of the management of Borrower or the conduct of Borrower’s business. Borrower has made all business decisions independently of PFG, and PFG has limited its actions to those of a lender of money and as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

(e) PFG is not obligated to renew or forbear to enforce any obligations of Borrower other than the specific limited forbearance set forth in this Agreement.

15. Rights and Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Additional Default, PFG may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:

(i) Without notice to Borrower, set off and apply to the amounts due and owing under the Loan Agreement and this Agreement:

(ii) Take action against Borrower for payment under the Loan Agreement and this Agreement;

(iii) Exercise any right and remedy under the Loan Agreement and/or this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document and/or applicable law.

(b) PFG’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents and under applicable law shall be cumulative. PFG shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by PFG of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by PFG of any Event of Default on the part of any Borrower shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by PFG shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. PFG shall have the right to take any action it deems necessary against any Borrower in order to enforce or perfect, or to realize on its security interest in any collateral provided by such Borrower.

(c) Upon the expiration of the Forbearance Period PFG may exercise any right and remedy under the Loan Agreement and/or this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document and/or applicable law.

16. Power of Attorney. Without limiting PFG’s other rights and remedies, PFG shall have the rights set forth in Section 6.4 of the Loan Agreement upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (unless otherwise provided for in Section 6.4 of the Loan Agreement).

17. Waivers of Notice and Cure. Borrower acknowledges that Events of Default have occurred under the Loan Agreement that, but for this Agreement, would have entitled PFG to exercise all the remedies available to PFG under the Loan Agreement and applicable law. Borrower waives all notices of default and rights to cure that are otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, any Loan Documents or applicable law. Borrower further waives any claim that a sale or other disposition by PFG of the Collateral is not commercially reasonable because PFG disclaims any warranties with respect to such sale or other disposition, including, without limitation, disclaimers of warranties relating to title, possession, quiet enjoyment, or the like.

18. Release.

(a) Borrower acknowledges that PFG would not enter into this Agreement without Borrower’s assurance hereunder. Except for the obligations arising hereafter under this Agreement and obligations arising hereafter under the Loan Agreement, Borrower hereby absolutely discharges and releases PFG, any person or entity that has obtained any interest from PFG under the Loan Agreement and each of PFG’s and such entity’s former and present partners, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, successors, assignees, agents and attorneys from any known or unknown claims which the Borrower now has against PFG of any nature, including any claims that Borrower, its successors, counsel, and advisors may in the future discover they would have now had if they had known facts not now known to them, whether founded in contract, in tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, including but not limited to any claims arising out of or related to the Loan Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.

(b) The provisions, waivers and releases set forth in this section are binding upon Borrower and Borrower’s shareholders, agents, employees, assigns and successors in interest, and each and every party claiming rights by or through Borrower. The provisions, waivers and releases of this section shall inure to the benefit of PFG and its agents, employees, officers, directors, assigns and successors in interest.

(c) Borrower warrants and represents that Borrower is the sole and lawful owner of all right, title and interest in and to all of the claims released hereby and Borrower has not heretofore voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, assigned or transferred or purported to assign or transfer to any person any such claim or any portion thereof. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless PFG from and against any claim, demand, damage, debt, liability (including payment of attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred whether or not litigation is commenced) based on or arising out of any assignment or transfer.

(d) The provisions of this section shall survive payment in full of the Obligations, full performance of all the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Agreement, and/or PFG’s actions to exercise any remedy available under the Loan Agreement or otherwise.

19. Consultation of Counsel. Borrower acknowledges that Borrower has had the opportunity to be represented by legal counsel of its own choice throughout all of the negotiations that preceded the execution of this Agreement. Borrower has executed this Agreement after reviewing and understanding each provision of this Agreement and without reliance upon any promise or representation of any person or persons acting for or on behalf of PFG. Borrower further acknowledges that Borrower and its counsel have had adequate opportunity to make whatever investigation or inquiry they may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement prior to the execution hereof and the delivery and acceptance of the consideration described herein.

20. Miscellaneous.

(c) Recitals. The recitals in this Agreement are confirmed by the parties as true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference. The recitals are a substantive, contractual part of this Agreement.

(d) Course of Dealing; Waivers. No course of dealing on the part of PFG or its officers, nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by PFG, shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise of any such right. PFG’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision shall not affect any right of PFG thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of PFG.

(e) Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence as to each and every term and provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Agreement.
