STOCKHOLDER:
EXHIBIT A
FORM OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY
The undersigned stockholder (the Stockholder ) of INHIBITEX, INC., a Delaware corporation (Parent), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by law) appoints and constitutes Gabriele M. Cerrone, Geoffrey W. Henson and FERMAVIR PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Florida corporation (the Company), and each of them, the attorneys and proxies of the Stockholder with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholders rights with respect to (i) the outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent owned of record by the Stockholder as of the date of this proxy, which shares are specified on the final page of this proxy, and (ii) any and all other shares of capital stock of Parent which the Stockholder may acquire on or after the date hereof. (The shares of the capital stock of Parent referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence are collectively referred to as the Shares.) Upon the execution hereof, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect to any of the Shares are hereby revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies will be given with respect to any of the Shares.
This proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with the Parent Voting Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, the Stockholder and the other stockholders of Parent appearing as signatories thereto (the Voting Agreement), and is granted in consideration of the Company entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the Merger Agreement), dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, Parent and Frost Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (Merger Sub), providing for the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub being the surviving corporation and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the Merger). This proxy will terminate on the Voting Covenant Expiration Date (as defined in the Voting Agreement).
The attorneys and proxies named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote the Shares at any time until the Voting Covenant Expiration Date at any meeting of the stockholders of the Parent, however called (and any postponement or adjournment thereof), and in connection with any written action by consent of stockholders of the Parent, as applicable:
(i) in favor of the issuance of Parents Common Stock to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Parent Plan Increase and in favor of any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing;
(ii) against any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Parent in the Merger Agreement; and
(iii) against the following actions (other than the Merger and the Parent Plan Increase, including the matters described in subsection (i) above): (A) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving Parent or Merger Sub; (B) any reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution or liquidation of Parent or Merger Sub; (C) any change in a majority of the board of directors of Parent; (D) any material change in the capitalization of Parent or Parents corporate structure (except as described in subsection (a) above); and (E) any other action which is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
For clarification, the Stockholder shall not vote the Shares (whether in person or by proxy, other than this proxy) at any meeting of the stockholders of Parent, however called (and any postponement or adjournment thereof), or in connection with any written action by consent of stockholders of Parent, as applicable, with regard to the foregoing matters unless requested by any of the attorneys and proxies named above to do so, in which event, the Stockholder shall vote his, her or its Shares as required by Section 3.1 of the Voting Agreement.
The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all other matters not subject to this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect to such other matters.
This proxy shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Shares).
Any term or provision of this proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Stockholder agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this proxy shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Stockholder agrees to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.
