INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME.

In addition, if any Buyer is an affiliate of the Company, the Common Shares issued to such Buyer may bear the following “affiliates” legend:

The Company and each of its subsidiaries is an entity duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, and has the requisite corporate (or other) power and authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. The Company and each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on (i) the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, individually or taken as a whole, or (ii) on the transactions contemplated hereby and the other Transaction Documents or (iii) on the other Transaction Documents or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or (iv) on the authority or ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents or (v) on the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents, except that any of the following, either alone or in combination, shall not be deemed a Material Adverse Effect: (a) effects caused by changes or circumstances affecting general market or other conditions in the U.S. economy or which are generally applicable to the industry in which the Company operates, provided that such effects are not borne to a materially disproportionate degree by the Company compared to other companies operating in the same industry as the Company, (b) effects resulting from or relating to the announcement or disclosure of the sale of the Common Shares or other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (c) effects caused by any event, occurrence or condition resulting from or relating to the taking of any action in accordance with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or (d) effects resulting from Hatch-Waxman based litigation relating to the Company’s LIQ861 product candidate, or from any litigation set forth in the SEC Reports.

(b)            Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and each of the other agreements entered into by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and to issue the Common Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares, have been duly authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors and (other than the filing of a Form D with the SEC and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies), no further filing, consent or authorization is required by the Company, its Boards of Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

Assuming the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement, the offer and issuance by the Company of the Common Shares is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act. The offer and issuance of the Common Shares hereunder will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Company Common Stock or other securities to any other Person (other than the Buyers) and will not result in the adjustment of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended and restated and as in effect on the date hereof or on the Closing, as applicable (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), or the Company’s bylaws, as amended and restated and as in effect on the date hereof or on the Closing, as applicable (the “Bylaws”), or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq) applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(t)            Employee Relations. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement, nor does it employ any member of a union.

No executive officer or other key employee of the Company is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject the Company to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company is in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company has taken commercially reasonable efforts to protect, enforce and maintain the material Company Intellectual Property. All present or former employees, consultants or independent contractors involved the development of any material Company Intellectual Property have executed written agreements under which he, she or it assigns all rights to such Intellectual Property to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and agrees to protect Company’s and its subsidiaries’ trade secrets and other confidential information.

(gg)        Disclosure Controls. The Company maintains systems of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved and to maintain asset accountability; (c) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (d) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Other than as set forth in the SEC Reports, the Company is not aware of any material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting. To the knowledge of the Company, since the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company included within the SEC Reports, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the certifying officers by others within the Company, particularly during the period in which the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that would significantly adversely affect the Company’s internal controls. To the knowledge of the Company, the Company’s “internal control over financial reporting” and “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such terms are defined under the 1934 Act) are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

(nn)        Bank Holding Company Act. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) and to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”).

(pp)        Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company is in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof, except where the failure to be in such compliance would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

21

There is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between the Company or any of its subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in its 1934 Act filings and is not so disclosed or that otherwise would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.            COVENANTS.

(a)            Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Each party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts timely to satisfy each of the covenants and the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Agreement.

(b)            No Conflicting Agreements. The Company will not take any action, enter into any agreement or make any commitment that would conflict or interfere in any respect with the Company’s obligations to the Buyers under the Transaction Documents.

(c)            Nasdaq Listing. Until the date the Buyers have sold all of the Common Shares (the “Reporting Period”), the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing and trading of Company Common Stock on Nasdaq, and, in accordance therewith, will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such market or exchange, as applicable.

(d)            Reporting Status. During the Reporting Period, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would otherwise permit such termination and the Company shall take all actions necessary to maintain its eligibility to register the Common Shares for resale by the Buyers on Form S-3.

(e)            Transfer or Resale. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents, each Buyer covenants that the Common Shares may be disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the 1933 Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Common Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) pursuant to Rule 144 at a time when the transferor is not at the time of the sale, or during the ninety (90) days immediately preceding such sale, an affiliate of the Company, or (iii) to the Company, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Common Shares under the 1933 Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that no affiliate of such Buyer serves on the Board of Directors of the Company, the Common Shares may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Common Shares and such pledge of Common Shares shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Shares hereunder, and no such Buyer effecting a pledge of Common Shares shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, this Section 4(e).

22

(f)            Removal of Legends. Subject to the Company’s right to request an opinion of counsel as set forth in Section 4(e), the legend set forth in Section 2(o) shall be removed and the Company shall issue or cause to be issued a certificate or book-entry evidence of ownership without such legend or any other legend (except for any “affiliates” legend as set forth in Section 2(o) to the extent applicable) to the holder of the applicable Common Shares upon which it is stamped, if (i) such Common Shares are registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, (ii) such Common Shares are eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 at a time the transferor is not, and has not been for ninety (90) days prior to such time, an affiliate of the Company or (iii) such Common Shares are sold or transferred in compliance with Rule 144, including without limitation in compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 if applicable to the Company at the time of such sale or transfer, and, in the cases of clauses (ii) and (iii), the holder and its broker have delivered customary documents reasonably requested by counsel to the Company in connection with such sale or transfer, provided that such documents shall not include a legal opinion if the Common Shares are proposed to be as described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) set forth in Section 4(e). Any fees (with respect to the counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company.

(g)            Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares in a manner consistent with the Company’s public statements and filings and for general corporate purposes, but not for (i) the repayment of any outstanding Indebtedness (other than in connection with the potential refinancing of the Company’s credit facility existing on the date hereof) or (ii) the redemption or repurchase of any equity securities (other than in connection with net issuances pursuant to the Company’s equity plans existing on the date hereof).

(h)            Fees. The Company and the Buyers shall each pay the fees and expenses of their respective advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

(i)            Short Sales and Confidentiality After the Date Hereof.  Each Buyer covenants that neither it nor any Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any “short sales” during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced or (ii) this Agreement is terminated in full. Each Buyer covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company, such Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction), other than to such Person’s outside attorney, accountant, auditor or investment advisor only to the extent necessary to permit evaluation of the investment, and the performance of the necessary or required tax, accounting, financial, legal, or administrative tasks and services and other than as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall preclude any actions with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect “short sales” or similar transactions in the future. Each Buyer understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of “short sales” of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with securities included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 239.10 of the Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.

23

(j)            Intentionally Omitted.

The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Common Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Buyer promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Common Shares for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Common Shares required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States following the Closing Date.

(m)            No Integrated Offering. None of the Company, its affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Common Shares under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of any of the Common Shares to be integrated with other offerings for purposes of any such applicable shareholder approval provisions.

(n)            Registration Rights. Upon the written request by such Buyer, the Company agrees to promptly file with the SEC a resale Registration Statement on Form S-3 or such other appropriate form for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 pursuant to which all of the Common Shares sold at the Closing to such Buyer shall be registered for resale by such Buyer.

Each of the parties hereto hereby (a) irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of New York (or, if the Supreme Court of the State of New York declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of New York) in the event that any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction or venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of New York (or, if the Supreme Court of the State of New York declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of New York).

(b)            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile, .pdf or any other electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (e.g., www.docusign.com) shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile, .pdf or other electronic signature.

(d)            Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

No provisions hereto may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the Buyers or holders of the applicable Common Shares then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and holders of Common Shares, as the case may be.
