Capitalized terms used herein (including in the immediately preceding sentence) and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Section 8.01 hereof.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Aytu and the Target entered into a Mutual Confidentiality and Standstill Agreement on August 2, 2019 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) and a Promissory Note on August 8, 2019 in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “Promissory Note”);

WHEREAS, the parties intend that Merger Sub be merged with and into the Target, with the Target surviving that merger on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Target (the "Target Board") has unanimously: (a) determined that it is in the best interests of the Target and the holders of shares of the Target's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Target Common Stock"), and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement with Aytu and Merger Sub; (b) approved the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger; (c) resolved, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the stockholders of the Target; in each case, in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”);

WHEREAS, the respective Boards of Directors of Aytu (the "Aytu Board") and Merger Sub (the "Merger Sub Board") have each unanimously: (a) determined that it is in the best interests of Aytu or Merger Sub, as applicable, and their respective stockholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement; and (b) approved the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger; in each case, in accordance with their relevant corporation law (DGCL or NRS);

WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, the parties intend that the Merger qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and that this Agreement be, and is hereby, adopted as a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code;.

WHEREAS, certain Aytu and Target stockholders together holding approximately 35% and 17%, respectively, of the outstanding voting shares of such companies have entered into voting agreements providing for their agreement to vote in favor of the Merger, among other things; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and also to prescribe certain terms and conditions to the Merger.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements contained in this Agreement, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
The Merger

Section 1.01 The Merger. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL, at the Effective Time: (a) Merger Sub will merge with and into the Target (the "Merger"); (b) the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease; and (c) the Target will continue its corporate existence under the DGCL as the surviving corporation in the Merger and a Subsidiary of Aytu (sometimes referred to herein as the "Surviving Corporation").

Section 1.02 Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the closing of the Merger (the "Closing") will take place at 9:00 AM, Salt Lake City time, as soon as practicable (and, in any event, within three Business Days) after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all conditions to the Merger set forth in ARTICLE VI (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all such conditions), unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The Closing shall be held at the offices of Dorsey & Whitney LLP at 111 South Main Street, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111 unless another place is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto, and the actual date of the Closing is hereinafter referred to as the "Closing Date."

Section 1.03 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, the Target, Aytu, and Merger Sub will cause a certificate of merger or articles of merger, as applicable, (collectively, the "Certificate of Merger") to be executed, acknowledged, and filed with the Secretary of State of the States of Delaware and Nevada in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL and the NRS and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL and the NRS, as applicable. The Merger will become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger has been duly filed with the Secretary of State of the States of Delaware and Nevada or at such later date or time as may be agreed by the Target and Aytu in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the DGCL (the effective time of the Merger being hereinafter referred to as the "Effective Time").

Section 1.04 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, all property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises, licenses, and authority of the Target and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, and duties of each of the Target and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 1.05 Certificate of Incorporation; By-Laws. At the Effective Time: (a) the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated so as to read in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A, and, as so amended and restated, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof or as provided by applicable Law; and (b) the by-laws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Corporation, except that references to Merger Sub's name shall be replaced with references to the Surviving Corporation's name, until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, or as provided by applicable Law.

Section 1.06 Directors and Officers. The directors and officers of Merger Sub, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors and officers, respectively, of the Surviving Corporation until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal in accordance with the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II
Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock; Exchange of certificates

Section 2.01 Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of Aytu, Merger Sub, or the Target or the holder of any capital stock of Aytu, Merger Sub, or the Target:

(a) Cancellation of Certain Target Common Stock. Each share of Target Common Stock that is owned by Aytu or the Target (as treasury stock or otherwise) or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "Cancelled Shares") will automatically be cancelled and retired and will cease to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Conversion of Target Common Stock. Each share of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares) will be converted into the right to receive: (i) one non-transferable CVR having the rights set forth in the Contingent Value Rights Agreement, plus the number of shares of AYTU Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (as calculated in Section 2.01(b)(i) below) (together, the "Merger Consideration"); (ii) any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Aytu Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.01(f); and (iii) any dividends or other distributions to which the holder thereof becomes entitled to upon the surrender of such shares of Target Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.02(g).

(i) The “Exchange Ratio” shall be determined as of the date of Closing by dividing (X) the number of shares of Aytu Common Stock determined by dividing the Consideration Value (as calculated below) by $1.69 by (Y) the number of outstanding Target Common Shares.

(ii) Subject to the below adjustments, the starting “Consideration Value” is $8,000,000, less the amount due under the Promissory Note and other outstanding indebtedness owed Aytu as of the Effective Time. The Consideration Value will then be reduced as follows:

(A) The Consideration Value will be reduced by (i) an amount equal to the aggregate of the following (but only to the extent such aggregate amount exceeds $1.3 million): (i) the total value of Aytu preferred stock issued to holders of the Terminated Warrants pursuant to Section 2.01(d) below in connection with the Warrant Offer (valued on the basis set forth in such clause) plus (ii) the Black-Scholes Value of all other warrants containing Cash Out Rights (as defined in Section 2.01(d) below). “Black-Scholes Value” means value based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) determined as of the day of this Agreement for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Effective Time, (B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered at Closing.

(B) Notwithstanding the above, to the extent the GAAP total liabilities balance of Target as of the end of the last completed calendar month prior to Closing (the “Closing Liability Balance”), exclusive of (a) the Promissory Note and any additional notes provided by Aytu, and exclusive of (b) the Interim Operating Loss (the “Adjusted Closing Liability Balance”), is greater than the June 30 Total Liability Balance, then the Consideration Value will be reduced by the amount by which the Adjusted Closing Liability Balance exceeds the June 30 Total Liability Balance. There will be no adjustment in the event the Adjusted Closing Liability Balance is less than the June 30 Total Liability Balance. All assumptions, estimates and other management judgments necessary to account for the Closing Liability Balance will both be in accordance with GAAP and will adhere to methodologies, policies and procedures as existed at June 30, 2019. See Exhibit H for example calculations.

(C) Notwithstanding the above, to the extent that Target’s net working capital deficit according to GAAP as of the end of the last completed calendar month prior to Closing (the “Closing Net Working Capital Deficit”), exclusive of (a) the Promissory Note and any additional notes provided by Aytu and exclusive of (b) the Interim Operating Loss (the “Adjusted Net Working Capital Deficit”) than the June 30 Net Working Capital Deficit, then the value of the Consideration Value will be reduced by the amount by which the Adjusted Net Working Capital Balance is lower (more negative) than the June 30 Net Working Capital Balance. There will be no adjustment in the event the Adjusted Net Working Capital Deficit is higher (less negative) than the June 30 Net Working Capital Balance. See Exhibit I for example calculations.

(D) Notwithstanding the above, any unrecorded liabilities that arise over the subsequent 90 days pertaining to the period prior to the Effective Time will further adjust the (a) “Adjusted Net Working Capital Deficit” and (b) Total Liabilities as of the Closing for purposes of applying the above.

(iii) Target will provide access to all books and records in advance of the Closing Date such that there is sufficient time to allow Aytu review of the books and records necessary to evaluate the aforementioned adjustments to the (i) Adjusted Closing Liability Balance and (ii) Adjusted Net Working Capital Balance. Further, if such balances cannot be determined consistent with GAAP at the time of the Closing due to the fact that the financial accounts for the last completed calendar month have not yet been finalized (and Aytu and Target cannot agree on serviceable estimates for such balances), then, notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Closing shall be postponed until such accounts have been finalized; provided, however, that if by postponing the Closing, the effect would be that the Merger would not be consummated on or before the End Date, then the End Date will be extended until the date of such postponed Closing.

(c) Cancellation of Shares. At the Effective Time, all shares of Target Common Stock will no longer be outstanding and all shares of Target Common Stock will be cancelled and retired and will cease to exist, and each holder of: (i) a certificate formerly representing any shares of Target Common Stock (each, a "Certificate"); or (ii) any book-entry shares which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Target Common Stock (each, a "Book-Entry Share") will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive (A) the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, (B) any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Aytu Common Stock payable pursuant to Section 2.01(f), and (C) any dividends or other distributions to which the holder thereof becomes entitled to upon the surrender of such shares of Target Common Stock in accordance with Section 2.02(g).

(d) Treatment of Warrants and other Target Securities. All warrants and other Target Securities convertible into or exercisable for Target Common Stock will be treated in the Merger in accordance with their terms and provisions. In addition, prior to the Effective Time, Aytu intends to make an offer (the “Warrant Offer”) to certain holders of Target’s warrants, including those that contain a right to receive a cash payment in connection with the Merger (the “Cash Out Right”). Such Warrant Offer will provide for the exchange of such warrants for shares of preferred stock of Aytu. The Aytu shares to be issued to them will be valued at the greater of (i) the last reported sale price of Aytu Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") on the last complete trading day prior to the date of the Effective Time or (ii) $1.69 per share. The warrants of those holders who accept the Warrant Offer will be terminated at the Effective Time (the “Terminated Warrants”).

(e) Conversion of Merger Sub Capital Stock. Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one newly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation with the same rights, powers, and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(f) Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Aytu Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Target Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01(b) and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of shares of Aytu Common Stock. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Target Common Stock converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Aytu Common Stock (after taking into account all shares of Target Common Stock exchanged by such holder) shall in lieu thereof, upon surrender of such holder's Certificates and Book-Entry Shares, receive in cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, an amount equal to such fractional amount multiplied by the last reported sale price of Aytu Common Stock on Nasdaq on the last complete trading day prior to the date of the Effective Time.

Section 2.02 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Exchange Agent; Exchange Fund. Prior to the Effective Time, Aytu shall appoint an exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") to act as the agent for the purpose of paying the Merger Consideration for the Certificates and the Book-Entry Shares. At or promptly following the Effective Time, Aytu shall deposit, or cause the Surviving Corporation to deposit, with the Exchange Agent: (i) certificates representing the shares of Aytu Common Stock to be issued as Merger Consideration (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Aytu Common Stock represented by book-entry shares will be issued); and (ii) cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.01(f). In addition, Aytu shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time, any dividends or other distributions, if any, to which the holders of Target Common Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(g) for distributions or dividends, on the Aytu Common Stock to which they are entitled to pursuant to Section 2.01(b), with both a record and payment date after the Effective Time and prior to the surrender of the Target Common Shares in exchange for such Aytu Common Stock. Such cash and shares of Aytu Common Stock, together with any dividends or other distributions deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.02(a), are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the "Exchange Fund."

(b) Procedures for Surrender; No Interest. Promptly after the Effective Time, Aytu shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to each record holder of shares of Target Common Stock at the Effective Time, whose Target Common Stock was converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, and which letter of transmittal will be in customary form and have such other provisions as Aytu and the Surviving Corporation may reasonably specify) for use in such exchange. Each holder of shares of Target Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Target Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) in respect of the Target Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, any cash in lieu of fractional shares which the holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.01(f), and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.02(g) upon: (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate; or (ii) receipt of an "agent's message" by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-Entry Shares; in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE II, each Certificate or Certificates or Book-Entry Share or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, shall immediately be cancelled.

(c) Payments to Non-Registered Holders. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Book-Entry Share, as applicable, is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that: (i) such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred; and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(d) Full Satisfaction. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates or transfer of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Target Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Target Common Stock on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this ARTICLE II.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Target Common Stock six months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Aytu, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Target Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.02 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Aytu (subject to abandoned property, escheat, or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for payment of the Merger Consideration without any interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Aytu, Merger Sub, Target or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of shares of Target Common Stock for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat, or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Target Common Stock two years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity) shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Aytu free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Shares of Target Common Stock. All shares of Aytu Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by Aytu in respect of the Aytu Common Stock, the record date for which is after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions in respect of the Aytu Common Stock shall be paid to any holder of any Unsurrendered Target Common Share until the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu of the Certificate as provided in Section 2.06) or Book-Entry Share is surrendered for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.02. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following such surrender, there shall be issued or paid to the holder of record of the whole shares of Aytu Common Stock issued in exchange for Target Common Shares in accordance with this Section 2.02, without interest: (i) at the time of such surrender, the dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to such whole shares of Aytu Common Stock and not paid; and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such whole shares of Aytu Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to surrender.

Section 2.03 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 2.01, and subject to NRS 92A.300 through 92A.500 (the “Dissenting Statute”), shares of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(a)) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing, and who is entitled to demand and has properly exercised dissenters rights of such shares in accordance with the Dissenting Statute (such shares of Target Common Stock being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.01(b), but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by the Dissenting Statute; provided, however, if such holder fails to perfect, or otherwise waives, withdraws, or loses such holder’s right to dissent pursuant to the Dissenting Statute or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by the Dissenting Statute, such shares of Target Common Stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.01(b), without interest thereon, upon surrender of such Certificate formerly representing such share or transfer of such Book-Entry Share, as the case may be. The Target shall promptly provide Aytu with written notice of any demands received by the Target for appraisal of shares of Target Common Stock, any waiver or withdrawal of any such demand, and any other demand, notice, or instrument delivered to Target prior to the Effective Time that relates to such demand, and Aytu shall have the opportunity and right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Except with the prior written consent of Aytu, the Target shall not make any payment with respect to, or settle, or offer to settle, any such demands.

Section 2.04 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Target or the Aytu Common Stock shall occur (other than the issuance of additional shares of capital stock of the Target or Aytu as permitted by this Agreement), including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split), or combination, exchange, readjustment of shares, or similar transaction, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Exchange Ratio and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit Aytu or the Target to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.05 Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Aytu, Merger Sub, and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this ARTICLE II such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any Tax Laws.

In such notice, the Target shall identify the third party making, and details of the material terms and conditions of, any such proposal, indication or request. Target shall keep Aytu fully informed, on a current basis, of the status and material terms of any such proposal, indication or request, including any material amendments or proposed amendments as to price and other material terms thereof. Target shall provide Aytu with at least 48 hours prior notice of any meeting of its board of directors, or any committee thereof (or such lesser notice as is provided to the members of its board of directors or committee thereof) at which the Target’s board of directors, or any committee thereof, is reasonably expected to consider any proposal for a Target Alternative Transaction. Target shall promptly provide Aytu with a list of any non-public information concerning Target’s or any of its Subsidiaries' business, present or future performance, financial condition, or results of operations, provided to any third party, and, to the extent such information has not been previously provided to Aytu, copies of such information.

(d) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 5.05, the Target Board shall not effect a Target Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into (or permit any of its respective Subsidiaries to enter into) an Acquisition Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the receipt of: (i) the Requisite Target Vote, the Target Board may effect a Target Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into (or permit any Subsidiary to enter into) an Acquisition Agreement, if (A) Target promptly notifies Aytu, in writing, at least five Business Days (the "Superior Proposal Notice Period") before making a Target Adverse Recommendation Change or entering into (or causing one of its Subsidiaries to enter into) an Acquisition Agreement, of its intention to take such action with respect to a Superior Proposal, which notice shall state expressly that Target has received a proposal for a Target Alternative Transaction that Target’s board of directors (or a committee thereof) intends to declare a Superior Proposal and that it intends to effect a Target Adverse Recommendation Change and/or Target intends to enter into an Acquisition Agreement, (B) Target attaches to such notice the most current version of the proposed agreement (which version shall be updated on a prompt basis) and the identity of the third party making such Superior Proposal, (C) Target shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, during the Superior Proposal Notice Period, negotiate with Aytu in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such proposal for a Target Alternative Transaction ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal, if Aytu, in its discretion, proposes to make such adjustments (it being agreed that in the event that, after commencement of the Superior Proposal Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Superior Proposal, including, any revision in price, the Superior Proposal Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least three Business Days remains in the Superior Proposal Notice Period subsequent to the time that Target notifies Aytu of any such material revision (it being understood that there may be multiple extensions)), and (D) Target’s board of directors (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that such proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal after taking into account any adjustments made by Aytu during the Superior Proposal Notice Period in the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

For a period of six years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Aytu shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification, and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of the Charter Documents of the Target as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to acts or omissions by any Indemnified Party occurring prior to the Effective Time, and shall not amend, repeal, or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any Indemnified Party; provided that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claim made for indemnification within such period shall continue until the disposition of such action or resolution of such claim.

If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at an annual premium equal to or less than the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation will obtain, and Aytu will cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain, the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(c) The obligations of Aytu, Merger Sub, and the Surviving Corporation under this Section 5.11 shall survive the consummation of the Merger and shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 5.11 applies without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 5.11 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.11, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 5.11).

The agreements and covenants contained herein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which any Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract, or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, shall be construed to, or shall release, waive, or impair any rights to directors' and officers' insurance claims under any policy that is or has been in existence with respect to the Target or its officers, directors, and employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.11 is not prior to, or in substitution for, any such claims under any such policies.

ARTICLE II.
Contingent Value Rights

2.1	Authority; Issuance of CVRs; Appointment of Rights Agent.

(a) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any government authority is required by or with respect to the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company or the consummation by Company of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) The CVRs are a form of Merger Consideration described in the Merger Agreement and will be issued in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and this Agreement.

(c) The Company hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as rights agent for the Company in accordance with the instructions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement, and the Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment.

2.2	Nontransferable.

The CVRs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer.

2.3	No Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.

(a) The CVRs will be issued in book-entry form only and will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

(b) The Rights Agent will keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of CVRs. The Rights Agent is hereby initially appointed CVR Registrar (the “CVR Registrar”) for the purpose of registering CVRs and Permitted Transfers of CVRs as herein provided. Upon any change in the identity of the Rights Agent, the successor Rights Agent will automatically also become the successor CVR Registrar.

(c) Subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to effect a Permitted Transfer of a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer and any other requested documentation in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the CVR Registrar, duly executed by the registered Holder or Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney, including the evidence of authority of the party presenting the CVR for transfer which authority may include, if applicable, a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association. A request for a transfer of a CVR must be accompanied by such documentation establishing that the transfer is a Permitted Transfer as may be reasonably requested by the Company and/or the CVR Registrar, if appropriate. Upon receipt of such written request and materials, the CVR Registrar will, subject to its reasonable determination that the transfer instrument is in proper form and the transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein, register the transfer of the CVRs in the CVR Register. All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register will be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same right and will entitle the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement, as those previously held by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR will be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any transfer not duly registered in the CVR Register will be void and invalid. All costs and expenses related to any transfer or assignment of the CVRs (including the cost of any transfer tax) will be the responsibility of the transferor.

(d) A Holder (or an authorized representative thereof) may make a request to the CVR Registrar to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. Upon receipt of such request, the CVR Registrar will promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register.

2.4	Payment Procedures.

(a) No later than February 28 of the year following the Milestone Period relating to a particular Earnout Achievement, the Company will deliver to the Holders’ Representative and the Rights Agent a certificate (the “Achievement Certificate”), certifying that the Holders are entitled to receive a CVR Payment Amount (and setting forth the calculation of such CVR Payment Amount). A Milestone Period can be used to measure the attainment of more than one Revenue Target Achievement in the following circumstances: if the Consumer Business Unit records any of the annual revenue targets in a Milestone Period that is earlier than the identified Milestone Period for such target, then the Company shall calculate and deliver the applicable CVR Payment Amount also at that earlier time. For example, if the Consumer Business Unit achieves $40 million in revenues in calendar year 2020, then, no later than February 28, 2021, the Company will deliver to the Holders’ Representative and the Rights Agent an Achievement Certificate certifying that the Holders are entitled to receive the CVR Payment Amounts associated with the Revenue Target Achievement for both Milestone 2 and Milestone 3. For the avoidance of doubt, a CVR Payment Amount may be earned only once following the initial Earnout Achievement of each revenue target and no amounts shall be due or payable for subsequent or repeated achievement of the same revenue target.

(b) If no Earnout Achievement has occurred during a particular Milestone Period, then, as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of such Milestone Period, but in no event later than February 28 of the year following such Milestone Period, the Company will deliver to the Holders’ Representative and the Rights Agent a certificate (the “Non-Achievement Certificate”), stating that no Earnout Achievement occurred.

(c) During the period from February 28 to May 31 of each year following a particular Milestone Period (the “Objection Period”), the Holders’ Representative may send a notice (the “Notice of Objection”) to the Rights Agent detailing either their objection to the proposed calculation of the CVR Payment Amount for the prior Milestone Period set forth in the Achievement Certificate or their objection to the Non-Achievement Certificate, in either case by providing a basis for their objection. Following the receipt of a Notice of Objection, the Company shall permit, and shall cause its Affiliates to permit, the Holders’ Representative, and, if requested by the Holders’ Representative, the Independent Accountant, to have access to the records of the Company or its Affiliates as may be reasonably necessary to investigate the basis for the Notice of Objection. Any dispute arising from a Notice of Objection will be resolved in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 9.10, which decision will be binding on the parties hereto and every Holder. If a Notice of Objection has not been delivered to the Company within the Objection Period for a particular Milestone Period, then the Holders’ Representative will have no right to receive the disputed CVR Payment Amount, and the Company and the Rights Agent will have no further obligations with respect to such CVR Payment Amount.

(d) If the Company delivers an Achievement Certificate to the Rights Agent, no later than March 20 of the year following the Milestone Period during which an Earnout Achievement was met (the “Share Determination Date”), the Company will deposit with the Rights Agent certificates representing the CVR Payment Shares relating to the applicable CVR Payment Amount (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Common Stock represented by book-entry shares will be issued); provided however, rather than depositing CVR Payment Shares, the Company may at its sole election deposit with the Rights Agent a cash amount (the “Cash Replacement Amount”) reflecting all or a part of the applicable CVR Payment Amount, in which case the number of applicable CVR Payment Shares will be appropriately reduced. In no case shall the sum of (i) the fair value of CVR Payment Shares to be issued and (ii) Cash Replacement Amount be less than the total Milestone Payment Amount. No later than ten (10) calendar days after the applicable Share Determination Date, the Rights Agent will then distribute to each Holder the portion of the CVR Payment Amount that is equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Share by (i) depositing the applicable number of CVR Payment Shares in the account of such Holder pursuant to procedures communicated by the Rights Agent and (ii) with respect to any Cash Replacement Amount, distributing the applicable amount to each Holder either by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in the CVR Register, or, with respect to any Holder who has provided the Rights Agent with wire transfer instructions meeting the Rights Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account. Notwithstanding the above, to the extent a Holder’s Pro Rata Share would result in such Holder receiving a fractional share of Common Stock, such Holder shall instead receive a full additional share if the fractional share is .5 or greater and shall forfeit such fractional share if the fractional share is less than .5.

(e) If a CVR Payment Amount is determined to be payable following a Notice of Objection pursuant to Section 2.4(c) above (whether by agreement of the parties or the decision of an arbitrator under Section 9.10), then within ten (10) Business Days of such determination, the Company will deposit with the Rights Agent certificates representing the applicable CVR Payment Shares (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Common Stock represented by book-entry shares will be issued); provided however, rather than depositing CVR Payment Shares, the Company may at its sole election deposit with the Rights Agent a Cash Replacement Amount reflecting all or a part of the applicable CVR Payment Amount, in which case the number of CVR Payment Shares will be appropriately reduced. In no case shall the sum of (i) the fair value of CVR Payment Shares to be issued and (ii) Cash Replacement Amount be less than the total Milestone Payment Amount. No later than ten (10) Business Days later, the Rights Agent will then distribute to each Holder the portion of the CVR Payment Amount that is equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Share by (i) depositing the applicable number of CVR Payment Shares in the account of such Holder pursuant to procedures communicated by the Rights Agent and (ii) with respect to any Cash Replacement Amount, distributing the applicable amount to each Holder either by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in the CVR Register, or, with respect to any Holder who has provided the Rights Agent with wire transfer instructions meeting the Rights Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account. Notwithstanding the above, to the extent a Holder’s Pro Rata Share would result in such Holder receiving a fractional share of Common Stock, such Holder shall instead receive a full additional share if the fractional share is .5 or greater and shall forfeit such fractional share if the fractional share is less than .5.

(f) The Company will be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from each CVR Payment Amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, CVR Payment Shares or Cash Replacement Amounts, as applicable, in such amount as the Company or the applicable Affiliate of the Company is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld are paid over to or deposited with the relevant governmental entity, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(g) The Company will promptly furnish to the Rights Agent all information and documentation in connection with this Agreement and the CVRs that the Rights Agent may reasonably request in order to perform under this Agreement.

2.5	No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in the Company.

(a) Except for those associated with actual CVR Payment Shares, if and when issued, the CVRs will not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest will not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs to any Holder.

(b) Except for those associated with the actual CVR Payment Shares, if and when issued, the CVRs will not represent any equity or ownership interest in the Company.

(c) Each Holder acknowledges and agrees to the appointment and authority of the Holders’ Representative to act as the exclusive representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of such Holder and all Holders as set forth in this Agreement. Each Holder agrees that such Holder will not challenge or contest any action, inaction, determination or decision of the Holders’ Representative or the authority or power of the Holders’ Representative and will not threaten, bring, commence, institute, maintain, prosecute or voluntarily aid any action, which challenges the validity of or seeks to enjoin the operation of any provision of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions related to the authority of the Holders’ Representative to act on behalf of such Holder and all Holders as set forth in this Agreement.

ARTICLE III.
The Rights Agent

3.1	Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

(a) The Rights Agent will not have any liability for any actions taken or not taken in connection with this Agreement, except to the extent of its willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence. No provision of this Agreement will require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Rights Agent’s aggregate liability under this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the Rights Agent as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses.

(b) All rights of action under this Agreement may be enforced by the Rights Agent, and any action, suit or proceeding instituted by the Rights Agent will be brought in its name as Rights Agent, and any recovery of judgment will be for the ratable benefit of all the Holders, as their respective rights or interests may appear.

3.2	Certain Rights of Rights Agent.

The Rights Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into this Agreement against the Rights Agent. In addition:

(g) the Rights Agent will not be required to give any note or surety in respect of the execution of such powers or otherwise in respect of the premises;

(h) the Company agrees to indemnify the Rights Agent for, and hold the Rights Agent harmless against, any loss, liability, claim, demands, suits or expense (in each case pertaining to the Rights Agent’s own account only) arising out of or in connection with the Rights Agent’s duties under this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending the Rights Agent against any claims, charges, demands, suits or loss, unless such loss has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be a result of the Rights Agent’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence; and

(i) the Company agrees (i) to pay the fees and expenses of the Rights Agent in connection with this Agreement, and (ii) to reimburse the Rights Agent for all taxes and governmental charges, reasonable expenses and other charges of any kind and nature incurred by the Rights Agent in the execution of this Agreement (other than taxes measured by the Rights Agent’s net income). The Rights Agent will also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of the Rights Agent’s counsel and agent) paid or incurred by it in connection with the administration by the Rights Agent of its duties hereunder. An invoice for the Rights Agent Fee will be rendered a reasonable time before, and paid on, the effective date of the applicable transaction. An invoice for any out-of-pocket expenses and per item fees realized will be rendered and payable within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Company. The Company agrees to pay to Rights Agent any amounts, including fees and expenses, payable in favor of the Rights Agent in connection with any dispute, resolution or arbitration arising under or in connection with the Agreement. In no event will any expense incurred by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.2 be deducted from any CVR Payment Amount.

3.3	Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

(a) The Rights Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company specifying a date when such resignation will take effect, which notice will be sent at least thirty (30) days before the date so specified.

(b) If the Rights Agent will resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, the Company, by way of a Board Resolution, will promptly appoint a qualified successor Rights Agent who, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Holders’ Representative, shall be a stock transfer agent of national reputation or the corporate trust department of a commercial bank. The successor Rights Agent so appointed will, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with this Section 3.3(b), become the successor Rights Agent.

(c) The Company will give notice of each resignation and each removal of a Rights Agent and each appointment of a successor Rights Agent by mailing written notice of such event by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders as their names and addresses appear in the CVR Register. Each notice will include the name and address of the successor Rights Agent. If the Company fails to send such notice within five (5) Business Days after acceptance of appointment by a successor Rights Agent, upon Company’s request the successor Rights Agent will cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company. In no event will any expense incurred by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.3 be deducted from any CVR Payment Amount.

3.4	Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

Every successor Rights Agent appointed hereunder will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Rights Agent an instrument accepting such appointment and a counterpart of this Agreement, and thereupon such successor Rights Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, will become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Rights Agent; provided, however, that upon the request of the Company or the successor Rights Agent, such retiring Rights Agent will cooperate in the transfer of all relevant data, including the CVR Register, to the successor Rights Agent.

ARTICLE IV.
Covenants

4.1	List of Holders.

The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Rights Agent in such form as the Company receives from its transfer agent (or other agent performing similar services for the Company), the names, addresses and shareholdings of registered holders of Common Stock as of the Effective Time. The Rights Agent will share with the Company, upon the Company’s request, a copy of the CVR Register and other information relating to the Holders, including any correspondence, unless the Rights Agent is restricted by law from sharing any such information, in which case the portion protected by law (and only such portion) will be redacted or otherwise subtracted from the materials provided to the Company.

4.2	Payment of CVR Payment Amount.

The Company will duly and promptly issue to Rights Agent the CVR Payment Amount, when and if payable, in shares of Common Stock to be distributed to the Holders in the manner provided for in Section 2.4 and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4.3	Operating Covenants & Keepwell

(a) Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or December 31, 2024, the Company will account for the results of the Consumer Business Unit pursuant to segment level reporting (whether or not it is in fact reported as a segment of the Company). Such reporting will be done in accordance with GAAP, except that appropriate adjustments for allocations of overhead consisting of those incremental costs incurred by the Company as a result of the Merger and other costs that are intended to fairly reflect the historical costs of the Consumer Business Unit, including any adjustments that may occur in accordance with Section 4.5, shall be applied.

(b) Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or December 31, 2024, the Company will provide (on the whole) reasonably sufficient commercial support to the Consumer Business Unit to allow it to meet the Revenue Target Achievement for each Milestone Period; provided however, that in any event the Company will not be required to provide more commercial support (on the whole) in any particular Milestone Period and on a proportionate basis relative to the Revenue Target Achievement for that period, than the amount of commercial support (on the whole) provided to such business by Innovus in 2018 relative to the revenue achieved in 2018.

(c) Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or December 31, 2024, the Company will also maintain product registrations, licenses and approvals and respond to queries and challenges and perform marketing activities of core products in a manner consistent with Innovus management of the Consumer Business Unit throughout 2018. After December 31, 2024, Company management will manage such matters in the Consumer Business Unit as they would in the ordinary course of business depending on prospects and expected performance of the Consumer Business Unit and its various product lines. In no event will the Company or its management team operate in bad faith with an intention to undermine the ability of the Consumer Business Unit from achieving the applicable Milestones.

4.4	Books and Records; Holders’ Representative Operating Covenant Review.

The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, keep true, complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to enable the Holders and their consultants or professional advisors to confirm the applicable CVR Payment Amount payable to each Holder hereunder in accordance with the terms specified in this Agreement. In connection with the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 4.3, the Holders’ Representative shall have the right to reasonably inspect and review the Company’s compliance with such obligations and, if the Holders’ Representative objects to the Company’s compliance related to Section 4.3, then the Company and the Holders’ Representative shall reasonably negotiate to resolve such dispute; provided, that if such dispute cannot be resolved despite the parties’ best commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within 15 business days, then the dispute shall be resolved via arbitration pursuant to Section 9.10 hereof.

4.5	Audits.

(a) In addition to the right of the Holders’ Representative to inspect the records of the Company in connection with a Notice of Objection as set forth in Section 2.4(c), upon the written request of the Holders’ Representative provided to the Company not less than forty-five (45) days in advance (such request not to be made more than once in any twelve (12) month period), the Company shall permit, and shall cause its Affiliates to permit, the Independent Accountant to have access during normal business hours to such of the records of the Company or its Affiliates as may be reasonably necessary to determine the accuracy of the results of the Consumer Business Unit reported by the Company, particularly as it pertains to the achievement or non-achievement, as the case may be, of any Milestones and the payment of any applicable CVR Payment Amounts. The Company shall, and shall cause to its Affiliates to, furnish to the Independent Accountant such access, work papers and other documents and information reasonably necessary for the Independent Accountant to calculate and verify the results of the Consumer Business Unit; provided that the Company may, and may cause its Affiliates to, redact documents and information not relevant for such calculation pursuant to this Section 4.5. The Independent Accountant shall disclose to the Company and the Holders’ Representative any matters directly related to its findings to the extent reasonably necessary to verify the results of the Consumer Business Unit.

(b) If the Independent Accountant concludes that a Milestone was achieved for which a Non-Achievement Certificate was previously delivered to the Holders’ Representative and the Rights Agent for which a CVR Payment Amount was properly due but not paid to the Rights Agent, or that any CVR Payment Amount made was in an amount less than the amount due, the Company shall pay the CVR Payment Amount or underpayment thereof to the Rights Agent for further distribution to the Holders plus interest on such amount at the “prime rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal or similar reputable data source from time to time, calculated from when the full CVR Payment Amount should have been paid to the date of actual payment (such amount including interest being the “CVR Shortfall”). The CVR Shortfall shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after the date the Independent Accountant delivers to Company and the Holders’ Representative the Independent Accountant’s written report. The decision of the Independent Accountant shall be final, conclusive and binding on Company and the Holders, shall be non-appealable and shall not be subject to further review. The fees charged by the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the Company.

(c) Each Person seeking to receive information from the Company in connection with a review pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall enter into, and shall cause its accounting firm to enter into, a reasonable and mutually satisfactory confidentiality agreement with the Company or any controlled Affiliate obligating such party to retain all such information disclosed to such party in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement.

ARTICLE VI.
Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Conveyance

6.1	Consolidation

(a) Except as contemplated by the Merger, the Company will not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless:

(i) the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person that acquires by conveyance or transfer, or that leases, the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety (the “Surviving Person”) will expressly assume payment (if and to the extent required hereunder) of amounts on all the CVRs and the performance of every duty and covenant of this Agreement on the part of the Company to be performed or observed; and

(ii) the Company has delivered to the Rights Agent an Officer’s Certificate, stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease complies with this Article VI and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(b) In the event the Company conveys, transfers or leases its properties and assets substantially as an entirety in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 6.1, the Surviving Person will be liable for the payment of the CVR Payment Amount and the performance of every duty and covenant of this Agreement on the part of the Company to be performed or observed.

6.2	Buyback of De Minimis CVRs.

At any time, the Company will have the right to purchase all the outstanding CVRs of any Holder having a De Minimis amount of CVRs by paying that Holder an amount in cash that is equivalent to the aggregate consideration such Holder would be owed if all future Achievement Certificates were delivered (assuming an exchange ratio of .1667) (such amount, the “Holder Buyout Value”). For purposes of this section, a “De Minimis” amount of CVRs is an amount for which the Holder Buyout Value is less than $100.

6.3	Successor Substituted.

Upon any consolidation of or merger by the Company with or into any other Person, or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person in accordance with Section 6.1, the Surviving Person will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Agreement with the same effect as if the Surviving Person had been named as the Company herein, and thereafter the predecessor Person will be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Agreement and the CVRs.

ARTICLE VIII.

The Holders’ Representative

8.1 Appointment of Holders’ Representative. To the extent valid and binding under applicable law, the Holders’ Representative is hereby appointed, authorized and empowered to be the exclusive representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of each Holder, with full power of substitution, to make all decisions and determinations and to act (or not act) and execute, deliver and receive all agreements, documents, instruments and consents on behalf of and as agent for each Holder at any time in connection with, and that may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the intent and implement the provisions of this Agreement and to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation for purposes of (i) negotiating and settling, on behalf of the Holders, any dispute that arises under this Agreement, (ii) confirming the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and (iii) negotiating and settling matters with respect to the amounts to be paid to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement.

8.2 Authority. To the extent valid and binding under applicable law, the appointment of the Holders’ Representative by the Holders in accordance with this Agreement is coupled with an interest and may not be revoked in whole or in part (including, without limitation, upon the death or incapacity of any stockholder). Subject to the prior qualifications, such appointment shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, estates, personal representatives, officers, directors, security holders, successors and assigns of each Holder. To the extent valid and binding under applicable law, all decisions of the Holders’ Representative shall be final and binding on all Holders. The Company and the Rights Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, without independent investigation, any act, notice, instruction or communication from the Holders’ Representative and any document executed by the Holders’ Representative on behalf of any Holder and shall be fully protected in connection with any action or inaction taken or omitted to be taken in reliance thereon, absent willful misconduct by the Company or the Rights Agent (as such willful misconduct is determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Holders’ Representative shall not be responsible, and shall be indemnified by the Holders and the Company, for any loss suffered by, or liability of any kind to the Holders, including as a result of legal action, arising out of any act done or omitted by the Holders’ Representative in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Holders’ Representative’s duties hereunder, unless such act or omission involves gross negligence or willful misconduct.

8.3 Successor Holders’ Representative. The Holders’ Representative may be removed for any reason or no reason by written consent of the Acting Holders. In the event that the Holders’ Representative dies, becomes unable to perform his or her responsibilities hereunder or resigns or is removed from such position, the Acting Holders shall be authorized to and shall select another representative to fill such vacancy and such substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Holders’ Representative for all purposes of this Agreement. The newly-appointed Holders’ Representative shall notify the Company, the Rights Agent and any other appropriate Person in writing of his or her appointment, provide evidence that the Acting Holders approved such appointment and provide appropriate contact information for purposes of this Agreement. The Company and the Rights Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, without independent investigation, the identity and validity of such newly-appointed Holders’ Representative as set forth in such written notice. In the event that within 30 days after the Holders’ Representative dies, becomes unable to perform his or her responsibilities hereunder or resigns or is removed from such position, no successor Holders’ Representative has been so selected, the Company shall cause the Rights Agent to notify the Person holding the largest quantity of the outstanding CVRs (and who is not the Company or, to the Rights Agent’s actual knowledge, any Affiliate of the Company) that such Person is the successor Holders’ Representative, and such Person shall be the successor Holders’ Representative hereunder. If such Person notifies the Rights Agent in writing that such Person declines to serve, the Rights Agent shall forthwith notify the Person holding the next-largest quantity of the outstanding CVRs (and who is not the Company or, to the Rights Agent’s actual knowledge, any Affiliate of the Company) that such next-largest-quantity Person is the successor Holders’ Representative, and such next-largest-quantity Person shall be the successor Holders’ Representative hereunder. (And so on, to the extent as may be necessary.) The Holders are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 8.3. If a successor Holders’ Representative is not appointed pursuant to the preceding procedure within 60 days after the Holders’ Representative dies, becomes unable to perform his or her responsibilities hereunder or resigns or is removed from such position, the Company shall appoint a successor Holders’ Representative.

8.4 Termination of Duties and Obligations. The Holders’ Representative’s duties and obligations under this Agreement shall survive until no CVRs remain outstanding or until this Agreement expires or is terminated pursuant to Section 9.8, whichever is earlier.

Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders, such notice will be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) (i) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his, her or its address as it appears in the CVR Register, or (ii) if sent via email or email with PDF attachment at email addresses previously confirmed by Holders, in either case not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail or email, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.

9.3	Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries.

Neither this Agreement nor any right, interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that the Rights Agent may, without further consent of the other parties hereto, assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder to any affiliated transfer agent registered under Rule 17Ac2-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, will give to any Person (other than the parties hereto, the Holders and their permitted successors and assigns hereunder) any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, the Holders and their permitted successors and assigns.

9.5	Legal Holidays.

If a CVR Payment Date is not a Business Day, then, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any payment required to be made in respect of the CVRs on such date need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the CVR Payment Date.

9.6	Severability Clause.

Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination will have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such 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 Agreement will be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree 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 or provision.

9.7	Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by facsimile signatures, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party and each of which will be an original, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Agreement or amendments thereto and of signature pages by facsimile transmission or by e-mail transmission in portable digital format (or similar format) will constitute effective execution and delivery of such instrument(s) as to the parties and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement or amendment for all purposes. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile or by e-mail transmission in portable digital format (or similar format) will be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

9.8	Termination.

This Agreement will terminate and be of no further force or effect, and the parties hereto will have no liability hereunder, upon the earliest to occur of (a) the payment of the last possible CVR Payment Amount due hereunder, (b) if a Notice of Objection is not delivered within the Objection Period relating to the last Milestone for which an Achievement Certificate has not been issued, the expiration of such Objection Period, (c) in the event of the delivery of a Notice of Objection for such last Milestone period, either (i) the final determination in accordance with this Agreement that no further Earnout Achievement has been achieved or (ii) the fulfillment of any payment obligation required pursuant to a final determination made in accordance with this Agreement or (d) the date on which no CVRs are outstanding.

9.9	Entire Agreement.

This Agreement represents the entire understanding of the parties hereto with reference to the CVRs and this Agreement supersedes any and all other oral or written agreements made with respect to the CVRs.

9.10 Arbitration.

Any claim which the Holders’ Representative or the Holders have the right to assert hereunder (including any claims brought by the Acting Holders on behalf of the Holders) will be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Only the Company, the Rights Agent, the Holders’ Representative and/or the Acting Holders may initiate an arbitration for any matter relating to this Agreement. However, in the event of a dispute arising from the delivery of a Notice of Objection, the sole matter to be settled by arbitration will be whether an Earnout Achievement has occurred. The number of arbitrators will be one, and such arbitrator will be selected by the American Arbitration Association. The place of the arbitration will be Denver, Colorado. The arbitrator will be a lawyer or retired judge or accountant with experience in the pharmaceutical industry and with mergers and acquisitions. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties (provided that the Holders’ Representative may disclose to the Holders any such information without the consent of the Company). Any award payable in favor of the Holders or the Rights Agent as a result of arbitration will be distributed to the Holders based on their Pro Rata Share. The Company will pay all fees and expenses of the arbitration, including the costs and expenses billed by the arbitrator in connection with the performance of its duties described herein; provided, however, that if the arbitrator rules in favor of the Company, the arbitrator’s fees and expenses will be offset against any CVR Payment Amount or any other payment to be made thereafter hereunder. Each party will be responsible for its own attorney fees, expenses and costs of investigation.

9.11	Survival.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all provisions regarding indemnification, warranty, liability and limits thereon, and confidentiality and protection of proprietary rights and trade secrets shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

9.12	Force Majeure.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Rights Agent shall not be liable for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of God, terrorist acts, shortage of supply, breakdowns or malfunctions, interruptions or malfunctions of computer facilities, or loss of data due to power failures or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems, labor difficulties, war or civil unrest.

9.13	Confidentiality

(a) Definition. “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all technical or business information relating to a party, including, without limitation, financial, marketing and product development information, stockholder information (including any non-public information of such stockholder), and proprietary information that is disclosed or otherwise becomes known to the other party or its affiliates, agents or representatives before or during the term of this Agreement. Confidential Information constitutes trade secrets and is of great value to the owner (or its affiliates). Confidential Information shall not include any information that is: (a) already known to the other party or its affiliates at the time of the disclosure, provided that such prior knowledge can be substantiated by the written records of such party; (b) publicly known at the time of the disclosure or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or failure of the other party; (c) subsequently disclosed to the other party or its affiliates on a non-confidential basis by a third party not having a confidential relationship with the owner and which rightfully acquired such information; or (d) independently developed by one party without access to the Confidential Information of the other, provided that such independent development can be substantiated by the written records of such party. This Agreement, including all of its terms and conditions, will not be deemed to be Confidential Information and may be publicly disclosed by Company.

(b) Use and Disclosure. All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement such physical and other security measures and controls as are necessary to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 9.13.

(c) Required or Permitted Disclosure. In the event that any requests or demands are made for the disclosure of Confidential Information, other than requests to Rights Agent for stockholder records pursuant to standard subpoenas from state or federal government authorities (e.g., divorce and criminal actions), the party receiving such request will promptly notify the other party to secure instructions from an authorized officer of such party as to such request and to enable the other party the opportunity to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment, unless such notification is otherwise prohibited by law or court order. Each party expressly reserves the right, however, to disclose Confidential Information to any person whenever it is advised by counsel that it may be held liable for the failure to disclose such Confidential Information or if required by law or court order.

(d) Unauthorized Disclosure. As may be required by law and without limiting any party's rights in respect of a breach of this Section 9.13, each party will promptly:

(i) notify the other party in writing of any unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information by any person or entity that may become known to such party;

(ii) furnish to the other party full details of the unauthorized possession, use or disclosure; and

(iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent a recurrence of any such unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of Confidential Information.

(e) Costs. Each party will bear the costs it incurs as a result of compliance with this Section 9.13.
