CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS

Section 2.01 Holders of CVRs; Appointment of Rights Agent.

(a) Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each holder of any shares of Company Common Stock shall be entitled to one CVR for each such share.

(b) Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each holder of a Vested In-the-Money Option shall be entitled to one CVR for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such option.

(c) Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each holder of an Unvested In-the-Money Option shall be entitled to one unvested CVR for each share of Company Common Stock corresponding to such option, provided that such unvested CVR will be subject to vesting upon the same

 

5


time-vesting schedule that applied to the corresponding In-the-Money Option, provided, further, that if the holder of such unvested CVR is employed or in the service of Lantheus, the Surviving Corporation or one of their Subsidiaries on the date a payment is due under this Agreement, then such unvested CVR will be deemed vested on such date with respect to such payment. In the event that the employment or other service with Lantheus, the Surviving Corporation or one of their Subsidiaries of a holder of an unvested CVR is terminated prior to the vesting of the unvested CVR for any reason that would trigger the forfeiture of the corresponding Unvested In-the-Money Option, such unvested CVR will be forfeited without payment.

(d) Lantheus hereby appoints the Rights Agent to act as rights agent for Lantheus in accordance with the express terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the Rights Agent hereby accepts such appointment.

Section 2.02 Nontransferable. CVRs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or disposed of in any other manner, in whole or in part, other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer. Any attempted sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, encumbrance or disposition of CVRs, in whole or in part, in violation of this Section 2.02 shall be void ab initio and of no effect.

Section 2.03 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.

(a) CVRs shall not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

(b) The Rights Agent shall keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the purposes of (i) identifying the Holders of CVRs and (ii) registering CVRs and Permitted Transfers thereof. The CVR Register will initially show one position for Cede & Co. representing all of the CVRs issued to the former holders of Company Common Stock held by DTC on behalf of the former street holders of Company Common Stock.

(c) Without limiting the restriction on transferability set forth in Section 2.02, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and other requested documentation in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Rights Agent, duly executed by the registered Holder or Holders thereof, or by the duly appointed legal representative, personal representative or survivor of such Holder or Holders, setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances relating to the transfer demonstrating that such proposed transfer is a Permitted Transfer. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Rights Agent shall notify Lantheus that it has received such written notice. Upon receipt of such notice from the Rights Agent, Lantheus shall in good faith reasonably determine whether the transfer is a Permitted Transfer and otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, and if Lantheus so reasonably determines that such transfer does so comply, Lantheus shall instruct the Rights Agent in writing to register the transfer of the applicable CVRs in the CVR Register. All duly transferred CVRs registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of Lantheus, evidencing the same right, and entitling the transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement, as those held by the transferor. No transfer of a CVR shall be valid until registered in the CVR Register in accordance with this Agreement. Any transfer or assignment of CVRs shall be without charge (other than the cost of any stamp, documentary, transfer Tax or similar Tax or charge) to the applicable Holder. Lantheus and the Rights Agent may require the Holder proposing to make a Permitted Transfer to pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp, documentary, transfer or other similar Tax or charge that is imposed in connection with any such registration of transfer.

(d) A Holder may make a written request to the Rights Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. Such written request must be duly executed by such Holder. Upon receipt of such written request, the Rights Agent shall promptly record the change of address in the CVR Register.

Section 2.04 Payment Procedures.

(a) Payments to Rights Agent. On each Net Sales Payment Date, Lantheus shall pay to the Rights Agent, by wire transfer to the account designated by the Rights Agent, an amount in U.S. Dollars comprising the Net Sales Payment due, if any, in respect of the Net Sales Measuring Period ended immediately preceding such Net Sales Payment Date. No later than seven (7) calendar days after the applicable Net Sales Payment Date, the Rights Agent will then distribute the Net Sales Payment to the Holders, pro rata, based on the number of CVRs held by each Holder as of such date, by distributing the applicable amount to each Holder in accordance with Section 2.04(b), in accordance with instructions solicited by the Rights Agent from, and provided by, the respective Holders. Except as set forth in Section 4.03 of this Agreement, following delivery of such Net Sales Payment to the Rights Agent, Lantheus will have no further liability or obligation to any Person with respect thereto.

(b) Payments to Holders. With respect to any Net Sales Payment that is payable pursuant to this Agreement, the Rights Agent shall pay the applicable amount to each of the Holders (the amount to which each Holder is entitled to receive will be based on the number of CVRs held by each Holder as of such Net Sales Payment Date) by (i) check mailed to the address of each Holder as reflected on the CVR Register as of the close of business on the last Business Day prior to such payment date or (ii) with respect to Holders that are due amounts equal to or in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate who have provided Lantheus with wire transfer instructions in writing, the Rights Agent will make payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the written instructions of Lantheus. Lantheus shall cause the Rights Agent, on behalf of and at the expense of Lantheus, to mail with (or, in the case of payments made to Holders who have provided Lantheus with wire instructions, at the same time as) each payment made, a copy of the Net Sales Statement to which such payment relates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Net Sales Payment that is payable to Holders of CVRs granted with respect to Vested In-the-Money Options and Unvested In-the-Money Options pursuant to Section 2.01(b) and (c) hereof, the Rights Agent shall pay the applicable amount to Progenics or Lantheus, as applicable, and Lantheus shall pay or cause Progenics to pay each such Holder the applicable amount through the Progenics or Lantheus payroll system, as applicable (subject to any applicable Tax withholding).

(c) Withholdings. Lantheus, Progenics and the Rights Agent (and any of their respective representatives) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of United States state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that such amounts are so withheld and paid over to or deposited with the relevant governmental entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction, withholding and payment was made. Lantheus, Progenics and the Rights Agent (and their respective representatives) will use commercially reasonable efforts to request any necessary Tax forms, including a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-2, W-9 or the appropriate series of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable, or any similar information from persons entitled to payment pursuant to this Agreement and such persons shall promptly provide such documents or information upon request.

(d) Investment of Funds. The Rights Agent shall hold any cash held by it for payment to the Holders in a custodial account, non-interest bearing account or otherwise, as reasonably directed by Lantheus in writing. Solely to the extent directed by Lantheus to be invested in an interest bearing accounting or otherwise, any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall be treated as earned by Lantheus for income Tax purposes and shall promptly be paid to Lantheus or an Affiliate of Lantheus, as directed by Lantheus in writing (subject to any applicable Tax withholding). The Rights Agent shall comply with all its information reporting obligations as required by applicable Law, including but not limited to the filing of all applicable U.S. Internal Revenue Service forms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Lantheus shall be responsible for providing the Rights Agent with sufficient funds to satisfy its payment obligations to the Holders.

 

7


(e) Treatment of Undistributed Funds or Shares. Any amount that remains undistributed to the Holders of CVRs twelve (12) months after such payment is due in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be delivered to Lantheus within two (2) Business Days following expiration of such twelve (12) month period, and shall be held in trust by Lantheus in a segregated account for the benefit of the Holders. Any Holders of CVRs who have not theretofore received payment with respect to such CVRs shall thereafter look only to Lantheus for payment of their claim therefor (subject to abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws). Neither Lantheus nor the Rights Agent will be liable to any person in respect of any Net Sales Payment or portion thereof delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If, despite Lantheus’ and/or the Rights Agent’s commercially reasonable efforts to deliver a Net Sales Payment to a Holder, any portion of the amount provided by Lantheus to the Rights Agent remains unclaimed prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any governmental entity, such amount shall, immediately prior to such time, to the extent permitted by Law, become the property of Lantheus free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(f) Books and Records; Inspection. Lantheus shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, keep true, complete and accurate records in sufficient detail to enable the Acting Holders’ professional advisors who sign a confidentiality agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Lantheus to determine the amounts payable hereunder. The Rights Agent shall keep copies of this Agreement available for inspection by the Holders during normal business hours at its office. Lantheus shall supply the Rights Agent from time to time with such numbers of copies of this Agreement as the Rights Agent may request.

(g) Maximum Aggregate Cash Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or otherwise, in no event shall the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of payments paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement (including any interest on such amounts paid or payable to the Rights Agent or any Holders under this Agreement) and (ii) the amount of any other cash or the fair market value of any property (other than the Parent Common Stock or the CVRs) paid or payable to the Company stockholders as consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement (A) exceed 19.9% of the aggregate amount of consideration paid or payable to the Company stockholders in the Merger or (B) constitute an amount the payment of which, in the opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel, would more likely than not prevent the Merger from satisfying the requirement of Section 368(a)(2)(E)(ii) of the Code.

Section 2.05 No Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest.

(a) CVRs shall not have any voting or dividend rights, and, except as set forth in Section 4.03 of this Agreement, interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable in respect of CVRs.

(b) CVRs shall not represent any equity or ownership interest in Lantheus, any constituent company to the Merger or any of their respective Affiliates.

Section 2.06 Ability to Abandon CVRs. A Holder may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a CVR by transferring such CVR to Lantheus without consideration therefor. Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Lantheus or any of its Affiliates from offering to acquire or acquiring any CVRs for consideration from the Holders, in private transactions or otherwise, in its sole discretion. Any CVRs acquired by Lantheus or any of its Affiliates shall be automatically deemed extinguished and no longer outstanding for purposes of the definition of Acting Holders, Article V and Section 6.04.

Lantheus’ obligations under this Section 3.02(e) to indemnify the Rights Agent shall survive the resignation or removal of any Rights Agent and the termination of this Agreement.

(f) In addition to the indemnification provided under Section 3.02(e), but without duplication, Lantheus agrees (i) to pay the fees of the Rights Agent in connection with the Rights Agent’s performance of its obligations hereunder, as agreed upon in writing by the Rights Agent and Lantheus on or prior to the date of this Agreement, and (ii) to reimburse the Rights Agent promptly upon demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, incurred by the Rights Agent in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

Notice of such removal shall be given by Lantheus to the Rights Agent, which notice shall be sent at least sixty (60) days prior to the date so specified.

(c) If the Rights Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, Lantheus shall promptly appoint a qualified successor Rights Agent that is a member of The Securities Transfer Association, Inc., which appointment shall require the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding CVRs (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS

Section 4.01 List of Holders. Lantheus shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Rights Agent the names and addresses of the Holders within thirty (30) Business Days following the Effective Time. The CVRs shall, in the case of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, be registered in the names and addresses of the holder as set forth in the applicable letter of transmittal accompanying the shares of Company Common Stock surrendered by the holder thereof in connection with the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement and in a denomination equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock so surrendered.

Section 4.02 Net Sales Statement.

(a) Lantheus shall cause a Net Sales Statement in respect of each Net Sales Measuring Period to be delivered to the Rights Agent within thirty (30) days after the annual report on 10-K for the immediately preceding Net Sales Measuring Period is filed with the SEC.

 

10


(b) In the event that the Acting Holder(s) elect to challenge the accuracy of the Net Sales Statement, including the calculations or amount of the Net Sales Payment, the Acting Holder(s) may initiate the review procedure set forth in Section 4.03, provided that the Acting Holder(s) do so within sixty (60) days of Lantheus’ delivery of the Net Sales Statement to the Rights Agent (the “Review Request Period”). If, upon the expiration of the Review Request Period, the Acting Holder(s) have not requested a review of the Net Sales Statement in accordance with this Section 4.02(b), the calculation of the Net Sales Payment as set forth in the Net Sales Statement shall be binding and conclusive upon the Holders, and Lantheus shall be released from any liability or accountability with respect to payments in excess of such Net Sales Payment.

Section 4.03 Independent Accountant Review. Upon the written request of the Acting Holder(s) delivered to Lantheus within the Review Request Period, Lantheus shall permit the Independent Accountant to have access upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours to such of the records of Lantheus and its Affiliates as is reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Net Sales Statement and the figures underlying the calculation of Net Sales. The Independent Accountant shall be charged to come to a final determination with respect to those specific items in the Net Sales Statement that the parties disagree on and submit to the Independent Accountant for resolution. All other items in the Net Sales Statement that the parties do not submit, prior to the end of the Review Request Period, to the Independent Accountant for resolution shall be deemed to be agreed and the Independent Accountant shall not be charged with calculating or validating those agreed upon items. Each Person seeking to receive information from Lantheus or the Independent Accountant, as the case may be, in connection with an audit shall enter into, and shall cause its accounting firm to enter into, a reasonable and mutually satisfactory confidentiality agreement with Lantheus obligating such party to retain all such financial and other information disclosed to such party in confidence pursuant to such confidentiality agreement. In the event that the Independent Accountant provides any information to the Acting Holders, it will concurrently provide Lantheus with a copy of such information. No later than thirty (30) days following access to such records of Lantheus as are reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Net Sales Statement and the figures underlying the calculation of Net Sales, the Independent Accountant shall deliver a written report to Lantheus and the Acting Holders of its preliminary findings regarding the applicable Net Sales Payment (the “Preliminary Statement”). Lantheus and the Acting Holders shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of the Preliminary Statement from the Independent Accountant (the “Preliminary Statement Review Period”) to review and comment upon the Preliminary Statement. The Independent Accountant shall take into consideration in good faith any comments received from Lantheus or the Acting Holders during the Preliminary Statement Review Period. No later than ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the Preliminary Statement Review Period, the Independent Accountant shall deliver a final written report to Lantheus and the Acting Holders (the “Final Statement”). If the Independent Accountant in the Final Statement concludes that the Holders are entitled to a Net Sales Payment in an amount greater than the Net Sales Payment set forth in the Net Sales Statement and paid to Holders (the difference being the “CVR Shortfall”) (and such payment has not been made by Lantheus), then, subject to Section 2.04(g) no later than ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of the Final Statement, Lantheus shall deliver an amount in cash to the Rights Agent sufficient to pay to the Holders such CVR Shortfall, together with interest at the “prime rate” as published in the Wall Street Journal from time to time, from the date that the applicable Net Sales Payment was due. The Final Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on Lantheus and the Holders, shall be nonappealable and shall not be subject to further review, absent manifest error. In the event that the Independent Accountant determines that the CVR Shortfall is more than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the applicable Net Sales Payment that was due, Lantheus will pay for the fees charged by the Independent Accountant; in the event that the Independent Accountant determines that the CVR Shortfall is equal to or less than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the Net Sales Payment that was due, the Holders will pay for the fees charged by the Independent Accountant, which amount shall be deducted from the Net Sales Payment for such Net Sales Measuring Period, any related CVR Shortfall, or any subsequent Net Sales Payment and such deducted amount shall not be paid to the Holders and shall be returned to Lantheus by the Rights Agent if such amount was previously transferred to the Rights Agent.

Lantheus and its Affiliates shall not consummate any sale of assets, spin-off, split-off or exclusive licensing transaction, other than a Sale Transaction in accordance with Section 4.06, pursuant to which (a) any rights in or to PyL Product or other rights necessary for the development or commercialization of PyL Product in the United States or (b) all or substantially all of the assets used or held for use in connection with PyL Product in the United States, in each case (in respect of the foregoing (a) and (b)) are, directly or indirectly, disposed of, sold, exclusively licensed, assigned, conveyed, or transferred to or acquired by any Person other than Lantheus or any of Lantheus’ direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (any such transaction, an “Assignment Transaction”), unless:

(a) such Person is assigned or exclusively licensed for any and all uses all rights and assets related to PyL Product that are necessary for obtaining FDA Approval and commercializing PyL Product in the United States;

(b) such Person expressly assumes in writing all of Lantheus’ obligations, duties and covenants under this Agreement; and

(c) Lantheus has delivered to the Rights Agent an Officers’ Certificate stating that such transaction complies with this Section 4.05 and all conditions precedent herein related to such transaction have been complied with.

An “Assignment Transaction” shall not include sales of PyL Product made by Lantheus or its Affiliates or ordinary course, non-exclusive licensing arrangements between Lantheus and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and third party licensees, distributors and contract manufacturers, on the other hand, entered into in the ordinary course of business for purposes of developing, manufacturing, distributing and selling PyL Product and for which the gross amounts invoiced for sales of PyL Product by the applicable third party licensee, distributor or contract manufacturer will be reflected in Net Sales of PyL Product in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 4.06 Consolidation, Merger, Sale or Conveyance.

(a) Lantheus will not merge or consolidate with or into any other Person or transfer, lease, sell or convey all or substantially all of its assets to any Person (a “Sale Transaction”), unless Lantheus shall deliver to the Rights Agent an Officers’ Certificate, stating that such Sale Transaction complies with this Section 4.06.

(b) Upon any Sale Transaction, the successor Person shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, and shall assume all of the obligations of Lantheus under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as Lantheus herein.

Any attempted assignment of this Agreement or any of such rights in violation of this Section 6.04 shall be void ab initio and of no effect.

Section 6.05 Benefits of Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall 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. The Holders shall have no rights hereunder except as are expressly set forth herein.

Section 6.08 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (iv) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.08.

Section 6.09 Further Assurances. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the parties hereto will, from time to time, do all acts and things and execute and deliver all such further documents and instruments, as the other parties hereto may reasonably require to effectively carry out or better evidence or perfect the full intent and meaning of this Agreement.

Section 6.10 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect, insofar as the foregoing can be accomplished without materially affecting the economic benefits anticipated by the parties to this Agreement. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 6.11 Headings. The headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 6.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

Section 6.13 Termination. This Agreement shall be terminated and of no force or effect, and the parties hereto shall have no liability hereunder (other than to the extent of any obligations which expressly survive or provide for performance following termination), upon the earlier of (i) payment of the Net Sales Payment for the Second Net Sales Measuring Period including any applicable CVR Shortfall in accordance with Section 4.03 hereof and (ii) the date that it is determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement that no Net Sales Payment for the Second Net Sales Measuring Period is due and payable. For avoidance of doubt, if there has been a request for an audit pursuant to Section 4.03 prior to the expiration of the Review Request Period, this Agreement shall survive until such audit has been completed and any CVR Shortfall determined to be payable as a result of such audit, if applicable, has been paid.

 

16


Section 6.14 Legal Holidays. In the event that the day on which any Net Sales Payment is due shall not be 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 or prior to such date need not be made on or prior to such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the last day on which such Net Sales Payment is due.
