(c) It is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

(d) It understands that the Securities will not be transferable except (1) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (2) upon receipt by the Corporation of a written opinion of counsel for such Investor reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation to the effect that the proposed transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and relevant state securities laws. Restrictive legends shall be placed on all certificates representing any Securities, substantially as follows:

“NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS IN EFFECT THEREUNDER AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS (SUCH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS, THE “SECURITIES LAWS”) OR (B) IF THE CORPORATION HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, WHICH OPINION AND COUNSEL SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH

TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(e) The execution, delivery and performance by it of the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all requisite action of it.

(f) It understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Corporation, and that a public market may never exist for the Shares.

(g) It understands that the sale of the Securities has not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent as expressed herein. Such Investor understands and acknowledges that the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that the sale provided for in this Agreement and the issuance of securities hereunder is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(h) Either alone or with its investment adviser, it has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters and with respect to investments in securities of privately-held companies so as to enable it to understand and evaluate the risks of its investment in the Securities and form an investment decision with respect thereto. It has been afforded the opportunity during the course of negotiating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to ask questions of, and to secure such information from, the Corporation and its officers and directors with regard to both the Corporation and IAC, as it deems necessary to evaluate the merits of entering into such transactions. Such Investor understands and acknowledges that such discussions, as well as any written information issued by the Corporation, (i) were intended to describe the aspects of the Corporation’s business and prospects which the Corporation believes to be material, but were not necessarily an exhaustive description, and (ii) may have contained forward-looking statements involving known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause the Corporation’s actual results in future periods or plans for future periods to differ materially from what was anticipated and that no representations or warranties were or are being made with respect to any such forward-looking statements or the probability of achieving any of the results projected in any of such forward-looking statements. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Corporation in Section 3 of this Agreement or the right of the Investors to rely thereon.

(i) If it is a natural person, it has the power and authority to enter into the Transaction Documents. If it is not a natural person, it is duly organized and validly existing and has the power and authority to enter into the Transaction Documents.

(j) It has adequate net worth and means of providing for its current needs and personal contingencies to sustain a complete loss of its investment in the Corporation. Such Investor understands that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed material and to have been relied upon by the Corporation.

If the Merger is not consummated immediately following the Closing (and in any event no later than the end of the day on the date hereof) or the Upstream Merger is not consummated as promptly as practicable thereafter (and in any event no later than the end of the business day following the closing of the Merger), then, unless otherwise consented to in writing by an Investor and the Corporation, the Corporation shall immediately return to each Investor (other than any consenting Investor) the entire aggregate cash Purchase Price paid by such Investor to the Corporation at the Closing, and the Corporation and such Investor shall thereafter deem the purchase and sale of the Shares and the Warrant by such Investor at the Closing to be rescinded as if it never occurred.

The Super 8-K (i) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (ii) shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder.

(e) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds from the sale of Shares hereunder [* * *] shall be used by the Corporation from and after the consummation of the Merger, solely for: (i) consideration for the redemption of securities under the Redemption Agreement (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement), which shall not exceed $80,000 (including the expenses of the existing stockholders of IAC that are reimbursable by the Corporation); (ii) the fees and expenses of the Placement Agent with respect to its services in connection with the sale of Securities hereunder, the Merger [* * *], together with the fees and expenses of any other placement agent, broker, finder or advisor [* * *], which shall not exceed $3,600,000 in the aggregate; (iii) all other out of pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Corporation in connection with the sale of the Securities hereunder, the Merger, [* * *] and future financing activities (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Corporation’s legal counsel and auditors); and (iv) general corporate purposes, including clinical development of Neratinib.

(f) Board of IAC. From and after the closing of the Merger and until the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the Board may consist of up to seven members, and shall include Alan H. Auerbach, Thomas R. Malley and, at the election of the Majority Investors, (i) one of two representatives designated by the Majority Investors (which designee shall be selected by Mr. Auerbach), or (ii) two of four representatives designated by the Majority Investors (which designees shall be selected by Mr. Auerbach), and such other directors as designated by the Board, up to a maximum of seven directors.

(g) [* * *]

(h) Access to Information. Prior to the Merger, the Corporation will afford each Investor and its respective representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the Corporation’s premises, properties, books, records, financial, tax and accounting records, agreements, and personnel, to obtain all information concerning its respective business, including the status of product development efforts, properties, results of operations and personnel, as such Investor may reasonably request.

[***] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.


(i) Amendment of IAC Certificate of Incorporation. Assuming the Corporation shall have received the written consent of at least the Majority Investors adopting and approving an amendment to the certificate of incorporation of IAC to remove the authorized shares of preferred stock (the “Charter Amendment”), the Corporation shall, promptly, but in no event more than thirty (30) days following the Merger, take all such steps as may be necessary, including, but not limited to, filing and circulating an information statement on Schedule 14C pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, to cause the Charter Amendment to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Corporation covenants and agrees not to issue, sell or transfer any shares of preferred stock of the Corporation prior to the effective date of the Charter Amendment.

Section 7. Expenses.

The Corporation and each Investor shall bear their own expenses and legal fees incurred on their behalf with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that the Corporation shall reimburse Adage Capital Partners, L.P. (“Adage”) for all of its reasonable fees and expenses associated with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) subject to a maximum aggregate amount of $125,000. The amount of such reimbursable fees and expenses shall be deducted by Adage from the aggregate Purchase Price it is obligated to pay for the Securities purchased hereunder.

Section 8. Exchanges; Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Certificates.

Upon surrender by any Investor to the Corporation of certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued, purchased or acquired by such Investor hereunder, the Corporation, at its expense, will issue in exchange therefor, and deliver to such Investor, a new certificate or certificates representing such shares in such denominations as may be requested by such Investor. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate representing any Securities purchased or acquired by any Investor hereunder and, in case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of any indemnity agreement satisfactory to the Corporation, or in case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such certificate, the Corporation, at its expense, will issue and deliver to such Investor a new certificate for such Securities, of like tenor, in lieu of such lost, stolen or mutilated certificate.

Section 9. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

The representations and warranties set forth herein shall survive the Closing indefinitely. The covenants set forth herein shall survive the Closing and continue until fully performed in

accordance with their terms.

Section 10. Delays and Omissions.

No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any holder of any Shares upon any breach or default of the Corporation under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such holder, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any holder of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any holder of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing or as provided in this Agreement. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any holder, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

Section 11. Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Corporation and each of the Investors and the respective permitted successors and assigns of each of the Investors and the permitted successors and assigns of the Corporation. This Agreement and the rights and duties of the Investors set forth herein may be freely assigned, in whole or in part, by the Investors; provided that (i) such assignment be accompanied by the transfer of the lesser of (A) at least 100,000 Shares or (B) 100% of the Shares purchased by such Investor hereunder and (ii) such assignee agrees in writing with the Corporation to be bound and comply with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or duties of the Corporation set forth herein shall be assigned by the Corporation, in whole or in part, without having first received the written consent of the Majority Investors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the consummation of the Merger and with respect to all times following the consummation of the Merger, (i) the Corporation shall, and hereby does, irrevocably assign all of its rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement to IAC and (ii) IAC, by executing this Agreement as an anticipated successor and assign to the Corporation, does hereby irrevocably assume, effective upon the consummation of the Merger, all of the Corporation’s rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement (the “IAC Assignment”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all of the covenants, rights, duties and obligations of the Corporation in Sections 6(b)6(g) shall, from and after the consummation of the Merger, as a result of the foregoing assignment and assumption, automatically, by operation of law, become the covenants, rights, duties and obligations of IAC and all references to Shares in such sections shall be references to IAC Shares. All parties to this Agreement, including the Majority Investors, hereby consent to the assignment and assumption contemplated between the Corporation and IAC set forth in this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt and by way of example, the Corporation, the Investors and IAC acknowledge and agree that, as a result of the IAC Assignment, (i) the Exchange Listing shall be undertaken by IAC and such listing shall be made with respect to IAC Shares, (ii) the Super 8-K shall be filed by IAC and such filing shall be

 

18

made with respect to IAC, (iii) covenants regarding the use of proceeds from the sale of Securities shall be binding on IAC, (iv) the size and composition of the board of directors of IAC shall be fixed and determined in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 6(f), and (v) [* * *].

Section 12. Exculpation Among Investors; Independent Obligations and Rights.

Each Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon any representations made by any person other than the Corporation in making its investment or decision to invest in the Corporation. Each Investor agrees that no Investor nor any respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents or employees of any Investor shall be liable to any other Investor for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities hereunder. The obligations of each Investor are several and not joint. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein and no action taken by an Investor shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no other Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Section 13. Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, together with the other writings referred to herein, or delivered hereunder and which form a part hereof, contains the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and amends, restates and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous arrangements or understandings, whether written or oral, with respect thereto.

Section 14. Notices.

All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder to any party shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written instrument delivered in person or duly sent by first class registered, certified or overnight mail, postage prepaid or telecopied or e-mailed with a confirmation copy by regular mail, addressed, telecopied or e-mailed, as the case may be, to such party at the address, telecopier number or e-mail address, as the case may be, set forth below or such other address, telecopier number or e-mail address, as the case may be, as may hereafter be designated in writing by the addressee to the addressor listing all parties:
