(c)         Cooperation. Seller and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this Section 7.3 or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of DERMAdoctor.

All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, including any transfer or similar Tax imposed by any Taxing Authority (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne and paid by Buyer when due. Buyer shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Transfer Taxes (and Seller shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary). The Parties shall cooperate to minimize or avoid any such Transfer Taxes that might be imposed to the extent permitted by Law.

(e)           Tax Proceedings.

(i)    Buyer shall notify Seller or Seller shall notify Buyer in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt by such party of notice of any claim for Taxes, including notice of any Tax audits, examinations or assessments that could give rise to claim for indemnity (any such claim, a “Tax Claim”); provided, that the failure of a party to give notice to any other party shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the party that was supposed to receive notice is actually prejudiced thereby.

- 18 -

(iii)    With respect to any other Tax Claim, Buyer shall control the defense and settlement of the Tax Claim, but (1) Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed as to the status of such Tax Claim and (2) if the resolution of such Tax Claim would reasonably be expected to result in any Tax for which Seller is liable hereunder, then (A) Seller shall be entitled to participate in any Proceeding relating to such Tax Claim at Seller’s own expense; and (B) Buyer shall not settle or otherwise compromise such Tax Claim without Seller’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Buyer and Seller shall not take any position for Tax purposes (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by a final determination defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code.

(g)          Tax Refunds. Refunds of Tax (net of any Tax costs incurred or accrued on account of the receipt of such refund and any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such receipt) relating to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date shall be the sole property of Seller.

7.4          Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation of Employees.

(a)          Non-Competition. From the Closing Date through December 31, 2024 (the “Non-Competition Period”), Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in any Competitive Business Activities in the Territory without the prior written consent of Buyer.

The representations and warranties of Buyer set forth in Article 6 shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except those representations and warranties that address matters only as of a specified date, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of that specified date), except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct would not have a material adverse effect on Buyer’s ability to consummate the Contemplated Transactions.

(b)          Compliance with Agreements. The covenants and agreements required by this Agreement to be performed by Buyer at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects at or prior to the Closing.

There shall not be pending any Proceeding challenging or seeking to make illegal or otherwise directly or indirectly restrain, enjoin or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions or that has the effect of making the Contemplated Transactions illegal, and no Proceeding seeking the foregoing shall be pending.

8.4          Frustration of Closing Conditions. None of Seller, DERMAdoctor or Buyer may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Article 8 to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s own failure to act in good faith or such party’s own failure to use its reasonable best effort to cause the Closing to occur as provided herein.

(a)          Buyer Indemnification. Subject to the limitations, conditions and other provisions of this Article 10, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates, respective agents, representatives, successors and assigns (the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against any Losses and Proceedings that may be sustained, suffered or incurred by the Seller Indemnitees, and that arise out of, result from or relate to (i) any inaccuracy or breach by Buyer of its Fundamental Representations and Warranties; (ii) any breach or non-fulfillment by Buyer of its covenants, agreements or obligations pursuant to this Agreement that by their terms are to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; and (iii) any Liabilities of DERMAdoctor arising from actions or events taken following the Closing.

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, Seller’s aggregate maximum Liability for all indemnification claims by Buyer or any Buyer Indemnitee under this Agreement is limited to and shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 75% of the Purchase Price (the “Maximum Amount”).

10.3        Third-Party Claims. If any Third-Party Claims shall be commenced, or any claim or demand shall be asserted (other than audits or contests with Taxing Authorities relating to Taxes), in respect of which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under Sections 10.2(a) or 10.2(b), as the case may be, then the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such demand within thirty (30) days of receipt, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the claim and a reasonable estimate of the amount of such claim and/or Losses sustained, if estimable. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the entire control of the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third-Party Claim for which indemnification is available hereunder (including the selection of counsel), and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle and compromise such claim only with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided, however, such consent of the Indemnified Party is not required where: (i) such settlement provides the Indemnified Party with a complete and unconditional release from such Third-Party Claim; and (ii) the sole relief provided in such settlement is monetary damages that are satisfied in full or assumed by the Indemnifying Party; and (iii) such settlement does not include any finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of wrongdoing on the part of any Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance (including access to employees) and books, records and other materials as may be reasonably requested. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend or settle such Third-Party Claim or fails to notify the Indemnified Party in writing of the Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 10.3, then the Indemnified Party may defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

- 26 -

10.4      Procedure for Direct Claims. Any Direct Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party (each a “Direct Claim Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the claim and a reasonable estimate of the amount of such claim, if estimable. The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) Business Days from the date of receipt (the “Direct Claim Notice Period”) within which to respond to a Direct Claim Notice. During the Direct Claim Notice Period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party's investigation by giving such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not respond in writing within the Direct Claim Notice Period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected responsibility for the claimed indemnification in the Direct Claim Notice, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party as provided in this Article 10.

10.5        Adjustment to Purchase Price for Tax Purposes. All indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article 10 or otherwise shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price as determined for Tax purposes.

10.6        Mitigation; Insurance; Recovery. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the Losses incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of any matter for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar Contract for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement. The amount of any claims or Losses subject to indemnification under Section 10.2(b) shall be calculated net of any actual cash amounts recovered by Buyer or its Affiliates (including DERMAdoctor after the Closing) under applicable insurance policies held by Buyer or its Affiliates. No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to duplicate recovery of any Losses for the same event when the facts and circumstances resulting in such Losses from the same event constitute a breach or inaccuracy of more than one representation and warranty and/or give rise to indemnification under more than one of the provisions hereunder.

10.7        Exclusive Remedies; Certain Losses. 

(a)       Subject to and except for Section 11.14, the parties acknowledge and agree that from and after Closing their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims of Fraud against a party hereto committing Fraud) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 10. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, from and after Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to Section 11.14 or the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 10. Nothing in this Section 10.7 shall limit any Person's right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 11.14 or to pursue a claim of Fraud against a party hereto committing Fraud.

- 27 -

(b)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Indemnifying Party hereto shall be liable to the Indemnified Party for any special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, punitive or indirect damages.

This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions (whether in Law or in equity, in Contract, in tort or otherwise) shall be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Laws rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

11.4        Entire Agreement. Except the Confidentiality Agreement that shall remain in full force and effect, this Agreement, together with the Disclosure Schedules hereto, which are incorporated by reference herein and the other Transaction Documents, and the Exhibits, Schedules hereto and thereto, constitute the sole and entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous representations, warranties, understandings and  other Contracts, whether oral or written.

- 29 -

11.6       Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, 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 in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Contemplated Transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

11.7        Amendment; Effect of Waiver and Consent. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto (or in the case of Section 11.16 only, Seller Law Firm) or any successor thereof. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

11.8        Successors and Assigns. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be construed to give any Person (other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns and as expressly provided herein) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenants, conditions or provisions contained herein, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise.

11.9       Assignability. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of Buyer and Seller; provided, however, that the prior written consent shall not be required with respect to any assignment under this Agreement toa successor of any party hereto upon a reorganization, consolidation, merger or any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of such party’s properties or assets so long as such obligations transfer to such successor.

11.10      No Other Duties. The only duties and obligations of the parties are as specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no other duties or obligations shall be implied in fact, Law or equity, or under any principle of fiduciary obligation.

11.13      Public Announcements. Unless expressly permitted under this Agreement, the parties shall not make any press releases or any other public announcements regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, unless such release or other announcement (a) is required by Law, (b) is necessary to comply with any employment and/or labor obligations, (c) has received the prior written consent of the other non-disclosing party, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; or (d) made to satisfy federal securities reporting and disclosure obligations of such party, including applicable rules of any stock exchange applicable to such party. Buyer acknowledges that Seller is required by Law to disclose publicly this Agreement, the terms set forth in this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, by filing this Agreement and, if applicable, other Transaction Documents in public filings with the Commission and may do so without further consent of any other party; provided, that Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow Buyer reasonable time (which shall not exceed the number of days Seller is required to make any such disclosure) to reasonably comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance.

11.14      Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law if any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, without the proof of actual damages, including in the form of an injunction or injunctions or Orders for specific performance (including the remedy of rescission), in the courts described in Section 11.3 in order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Such equitable relief shall be in addition to any other remedy to which the parties hereto are entitled at Law or in equity as a remedy for such nonperformance, breach or threatened breach. Each party agrees to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy. The rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative (and not alternative). The right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Contemplated Transactions and without that right, neither party would have entered into this Agreement.

11.16      Conflict Waiver; Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a)          Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, managers, members, stockholders, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP has acted as counsel to Seller and DERMAdoctor in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions. Buyer agrees, and shall cause DERMAdoctor to agree, that, following consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, such representation and any prior representation of DERMAdoctor by Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP (or any successor) (the “Seller Law Firm”) shall not preclude Seller Law Firm from serving as counsel to Seller, including any successor, or any director, manager, member, stockholder, partner, officer or employee of Seller, in connection with any litigation, dispute, claim, obligation or other Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or the Contemplated Transactions.
