(b) The Company’s Right to Require Regular Purchases. Subject to item (d) below and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on any given Business Day after the Commencement Date, the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to direct the Buyer by its delivery to the Buyer of a Purchase Notice from time to time, and the Buyer thereupon shall have the obligation, to buy the number of Purchase Shares specified in such notice, up to 500,000 Purchase Shares, on such Business Day (as long as such notice is delivered on or before 9:00 a.m. Eastern time on such Business Day), unless delivery of a Purchase Notice is waived by Buyer in its sole discretion (each such purchase, a “Regular Purchase”) at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date; however, in no event shall the Purchase Amount of a Regular Purchase exceed Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) per Business Day, unless the Buyer and the Company mutually agree. The Company and the Buyer may mutually agree to increase the number of Purchase Shares that may be sold pursuant to a Regular Purchase to as much as an additional 2,000,000 Purchase Shares per Business Day. The Company may deliver additional Purchase Notices to the Buyer from time to time so long as the most recent purchase has been completed. The share amounts in this Section 1(b) shall be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. Unless waived by the Buyer, the Company is prohibited from requesting Regular and/or Additional Purchases for five (5) Business Days from the Commencement Date.

(c) Additional Purchases. Subject to item (d) below and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in addition to purchases of Purchase Shares as described in Section 1(b) above, with one Business Day’s prior written notice, the Company shall also have the right but not the obligation to direct the Buyer by delivery to the Buyer of an Additional Purchase Notice from time to time, and the Buyer thereupon shall have the obligation, to buy up to an additional 30% of the trading volume of the Common Stock for the next Business Day (each such purchase, an “Additional Purchase”) at the Additional Purchase Price. The Company may deliver an Additional Purchase Notice to the Buyer on or before 9:00 a.m. Eastern time on a date on which (i) the Company also submitted a Purchase Notice for a Regular Purchase of at least 200,000 Purchase Shares to the Buyer and (ii) the Closing Bid Price is higher than $0.10. The share amount in the prior sentence shall be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. Upon completion of each Additional Purchase, the Buyer shall submit to the Company a confirmation of the Additional Purchase in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Company may deliver Additional Purchase Notices to the Buyer from time to time so long as the most recent purchase has been completed.

(d) Limitation on Purchases. In the event the Company delivers a Purchase Notice or Additional Purchase Notice to Buyer for more than thirty percent (30%) of the average of the five (5) previous Business Days dollar volume of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. based on a Trading Day from 9:30 AM (NYC time) to 4:02 PM (NYC time) for the nearest preceding Business Day (“Volume Limitation”), the Buyer, in its sole discretion, may either accept or reject the Purchase Notice or Additional Purchase Notice, in whole or in part. Furthermore, provided the Company can deliver the Purchase Shares or Additional Purchase Shares via DWAC, the Company shall be obligated to require Regular Purchases and/or Additional Purchases for an aggregate number of Purchase Shares and/or Additional Purchase Shares representing a dollar value of an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 per month, subject to the Volume Limitation. Upon failure of the Company to comply with its obligation to sell to Buyer a number of Purchase Shares with an aggregate value of at least $1,000,000, the Company will pay to the Buyer as liquidated damages the sum of $50,000 for each thirty (30) day period such failure continues. If for any reason the Transfer Agent does not timely deliver the Shares via DWAC, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may then cancel the Purchase and the Company will be required to pay Buyer as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty the sum of $5,000. If the Buyer elects not to cancel the Purchase Notice and/or an Additional Purchase Notice, the Company will pay to the Buyer as liquidated damages the sum of $5,000 per day until the Transfer Agent delivers the Purchase Shares to Buyer. In the event the Principal Market is closed or there is no trading in the Common Stock or trading has been halted for any reason whatsoever, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may reject a part of or all of the Purchase Notice or Additional Purchase Notice.

(e) Payment for Purchase Shares. For each Regular Purchase, the Buyer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Purchase Amount minus any amounts or credits whatsoever due to Buyer, as full payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds on or before the fourth Business Day following delivery of the Purchase Shares to Buyer. For each Additional Purchase, the Buyer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the Additional Purchase Amount minus any amounts or credits whatsoever due to Buyer, as full payment for such Additional Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds on or before the fourth Business Day following the delivery of Additional Purchase Shares to Buyer. All payments made under this Agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America via wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Company may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Agreement is due on any day that is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day. Failure to deliver the Purchase Shares or Additional Purchase Shares within three Business Days of the Purchase Date or Additional Purchase Date, the Company will pay Buyer as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, five percent (5%) of the value of the Common Stock based on the closing bid price of the Common stock for each such day until the Shares are delivered to Buyer.

(f) Purchase Price Floor. The Company and the Buyer shall not effect any sales under this Agreement on any Purchase Date where the Closing Bid Price is less than the Floor Price, unless waived by Buyer. “Floor Price” means $0.10 per share of Common Stock, which shall be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction.

(g) Records of Purchases. The Buyer and the Company shall each maintain records showing the remaining Available Amount at any given time and the dates and Purchase Amounts for each purchase, or shall use such other method reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and the Company to reconcile the remaining Available Amount.

(h) Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp or similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of any shares of Common Stock to the Buyer made under this Agreement.

(i) Compliance with Principal Market Rules. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under this Agreement, including the Commitment Fee (as defined in Section 4(e) hereof), shall not exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market (the number of shares which may be issued without violating such rules and regulations, the “Exchange Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market for issuances of shares of Common Stock in excess of such amount The Exchange Cap shall be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. The Company may, in its sole discretion, determine whether to obtain stockholder approval to issue more shares of Common Stock hereunder than is permitted by the Exchange Cap if such issuance would require stockholder approval under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market.

(j) Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not issue, and the Buyer shall not purchase any shares of Common Stock under this Agreement, if such shares proposed to be issued and sold, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then owned beneficially (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by the Buyer and its affiliates would result in the beneficial ownership by the Buyer and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, unless waived in writing by Buyer.

(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Buyer, including by merger or consolidation; provided, however, that any transaction, whether by merger, reorganization, restructuring, consolidation, financing or otherwise, whereby the Company remains the surviving entity immediately after such transaction, shall not be deemed a succession or assignment. The Buyer may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.

(h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.

(i) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(j) Termination. This Agreement may be terminated only as follows:

(i) By the Buyer any time an Event of Default exists without any liability or payment to the Company. However, if pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law, the Company commences a voluntary case or any Person commences a proceeding against the Company, a Custodian is appointed for the Company or for all or substantially all of its property, or the Company makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (any of which would be an Event of Default as described in Sections 9(f), 9(g) and 9(h) hereof) this Agreement shall automatically terminate without any liability or payment to the Company without further action or notice by any Person. No such termination of this Agreement under this Section 11(k)(i) shall affect the Company’s or the Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to pending purchases and the Company and the Buyer shall complete their respective obligations with respect to any pending purchases under this Agreement.

(ii) In the event that the Commencement shall not have occurred by November 15, 2016, the Company shall have the option to terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason without any liability whatsoever of either party to the other party under this Agreement.

(iii) In the event that the Commencement shall not have occurred within ten (10) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, due to the failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 above with respect to the Commencement, either party shall have the option to terminate this Agreement at the close of business on such date or thereafter without liability of either party to any other party except as described herein; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11(k)(iii) shall not be available to either party if such failure to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 is the result of a breach of this Agreement by such party or the failure of any representation or warranty of such party included in this Agreement to be true and correct in all material respects. A termination fee pursuant to this Paragraph (j)(iii) of $250,000 in cash, shares or a combination thereof, at Buyer’s election with such shares to be valued at the Purchase Price, will be immediately payable by the Company to Buyer.

(iv) At any time after the Commencement Date, the Company shall have the option to terminate this Agreement for any reason or for no reason by delivering notice (a “Company Termination Notice”) to the Buyer electing to terminate this Agreement without any liability whatsoever of either party to the other party under this Agreement except that the Company must transmit to Buyer a Termination Fee of $250,000 in cash or shares, at Buyer’s election with such shares to be valued at the Purchase Price, within two (2) Business Days following delivery of the Company Termination Notice. The Company Termination Notice shall not be effective until one (1) Business Day after it has been received by the Buyer. If the Termination Fee is not received within two (2) Business Days following delivery of the Company Termination Notice, the Company will pay the Buyer as liquidated damages of $5,000 per day in cash, shares or a combination thereof, at Buyer’s election with such shares to be valued at the Purchase Price, for each day of delay in payment of the Termination Fee together with any applicable legal fees.

(v) This Agreement shall automatically terminate on the date that the Company sells and the Buyer purchases the full Available Amount as provided herein, without any action or notice on the part of any party and without any liability whatsoever of any party to any other party under this Agreement.

(vi) If by the Maturity Date for any reason or for no reason the full Available Amount under this Agreement has not been purchased as provided for in Section 1 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date, without any action or notice on the part of any party and without any liability whatsoever of any party to any other party under this Agreement.

Except as set forth in Sections 11(j)(i) (in respect of an Event of Default under Sections 9(f), 9(g) and 9(h)), 11(j)(v) and 11(j)(vi), any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11(j) shall be effected by written notice from the Company to the Buyer, or the Buyer to the Company, as the case may be, setting forth the basis for the termination hereof. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Buyer contained in Sections 2, 3 and 5 hereof, the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 8 hereof and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4(e) and 11, shall survive the Commencement and any termination of this Agreement. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the Company’s or the Buyer’s rights or obligations (i) under the Registration Rights Agreement which shall survive any such termination in accordance with its terms or (ii) under this Agreement with respect to pending purchases and the Company and the Buyer shall complete their respective obligations with respect to any pending purchases under this Agreement.

(k) No Financial Advisor, Placement Agent, Broker or Finder. The Company represents and warrants to the Buyer that it has not engaged any financial advisor, placement agent, broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Buyer represents and warrants to the Company that it has not engaged any financial advisor, placement agent, broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party shall be responsible for the payment of any fees or commissions, if any, of any financial advisor, placement agent, broker or finder engaged by such party relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party shall pay, and hold the other party harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and out of pocket expenses) arising in connection with any such claim.

(l) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

(m) Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

Transaction Documents

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the transactions described in the Purchase Agreement are hereby approved and the Chief Executive Officer, the Principal Financial Officer of the Company (the “Authorized Officers”) are severally authorized to execute and deliver the Purchase Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A hereto, and any other agreements or documents contemplated thereby including, without limitation, a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B hereto providing for the registration of the issuance and/or sale of shares of Common Stock to HLHW under the Purchase Agreement, with such amendments, changes, additions and deletions as the Authorized Officers may deem to be appropriate and approve on behalf of the Company, such approval to be conclusively evidenced by the signature of an Authorized Officer thereon; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the terms and provisions of the Form of Transfer Agent Instructions (the “Instructions”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C hereto are hereby approved and the Authorized Officers are authorized to execute and deliver the Instructions (pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement), with such amendments, changes, additions and deletions as the Authorized Officers may deem appropriate and approve on behalf of the Company, such approval to be conclusively evidenced by the signature of an Authorized Officer thereon; and

Issuance of Common Stock

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Company is hereby authorized to issue shares of Common Stock upon the purchase of Purchase Shares from time to time with an aggregate purchase price of up to $10,000,000 under the Purchase Agreement, at a price per share equal to or greater than $[REQUIRES COMPLETION], in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, provided that the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (including all Purchase Shares and Additional Purchase Shares) (the “Purchase Shares” and “Additional Purchase Shares”, the “HLHW Shares”) shall not exceed 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof without the affirmative consent of the stockholders; and that, upon issuance of the Purchase Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including payment therefor, the Purchase Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Company is authorized to, and hereby does, reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that is issuable to HLHW under the Purchase Agreement, subject to automatic adjustment from time to time as Purchase Shares are sold to HLHW; and

Proceeds

FURTHER RESOLVED, that following the sale of the Purchase Shares, it is the intention of the Company (a) to continue to be primarily engaged in the business of drug discovery, development and commercialization (the “Company Business”), rather than in the business of investing or reinvesting in, or owning, holding or trading securities; (b) to employ the proceeds of the sale of the Purchase Shares in the Company Business; and (c) as soon as is reasonably possible, but in any event within one year from the closing of any sale of Purchase Shares, to have invested the proceeds of such sale not theretofore expended in the Company Business in a manner consistent with their preservation for future use in the Company Business and with the Company not being an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that, of the consideration to be received by the Company for the Purchase Shares, an amount equal to the par value per share sold is hereby determined to be capital to be allocated on the books of the Company to the Common Stock capital account, and the difference between the aggregate amount so allocated and the aggregate consideration received for the Purchase Shares shall be credited on the books of the Company as additional paid-in capital for purposes of financial reporting and as surplus for purposes of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; and

State Securities Laws

FURTHER RESOLVED, that it is desirable and in the best interests of the Company that its Common Stock be qualified or registered for sale, to the extent required by law, in various states and other jurisdictions, and that the Authorized Officers are each hereby authorized and directed to determine the states and other jurisdictions in which appropriate action shall be taken to (i) qualify or register for sale all or such part of such Common Stock and (ii) register the Company as a dealer or broker; that the Authorized Officers be, and hereby are, authorized to perform on behalf of the Company any and all such acts as the officer so acting may deem necessary or advisable in order to comply with the applicable laws of any such states and other jurisdictions, and in connection therewith to execute, affix the Company’s seal to and file all requisite papers and documents, including, without limitation, applications, resolutions, reports, surety bonds, irrevocable consents and appointments of attorneys for service of process; and that execution by any of the Authorized Officers of any such paper or document or the doing by any of the Authorized Officers of any act in connection with the foregoing matters shall conclusively establish the authority of the officers so acting therefor from the Company and the approval and ratification by the Company of the papers and documents so executed and the action so taken; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that if the securities or “blue sky” laws of any of the states or other jurisdictions in which any of the Authorized Officers deem it necessary or advisable to qualify or register for sale all or part of the Common Stock or to register the Company as a dealer or broker, or any authority administering such laws, requires a prescribed form of preambles or resolutions relating to such sale or to any application, statement, instrument or other document connected therewith, each such preamble or resolution is hereby adopted by the Board, and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company is hereby authorized to certify the adoption of any such preamble or resolution to any party who may so request and to insert all such preambles and resolutions in the minute book of the Company immediately following these resolutions; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that, without limiting the foregoing, the Authorized Officers are, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed to proceed on behalf of the Company and to take all such steps as deemed necessary or appropriate, with the advice and assistance of counsel, to cause the Company to consummate the agreements referred to herein and to perform its obligations under such agreements; and

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers be, and each of them hereby is, authorized, empowered and directed on behalf of and in the name of the Company, to take or cause to be taken all such further actions and to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all such further agreements, amendments, documents, certificates, reports, schedules, applications, notices, letters and undertakings and to incur and pay all such fees and expenses as in their judgment shall be necessary, proper or desirable to carry into effect the purpose and intent of any and all of the foregoing resolutions, and that all actions heretofore taken by any officer or director of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the agreements described herein are hereby approved, ratified and confirmed in all respects.
