Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Stock Purchase Agreement

On February 10, 2017 (the “Equity Closing Date”), the Reporting Person and the Issuer entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Issuer issued, and the Reporting Person purchased, the Purchased Shares, which represented approximately 2.75% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $14.7 million.

CUSIP No. 452907108 13D Page 5 of 8 Pages

Warrant Agreement and Warrant

On February 16, 2017, the Issuer and Broadridge, as warrant agent, entered into the Warrant Agreement pursuant to which the Issuer issued to, and in favor of, the Reporting Person, the Warrant on customary terms, pursuant to which the Reporting Person would have the right, until February 10, 2020, to purchase up to 8,655,804 additional shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $4.90 per share (in each case, subject to customary anti-dilution and other adjustments in accordance with the terms of the Warrant). In connection with the Reporting Person’s and the Issuer’s agreement to terminate the development and license agreement, the Issuer agreed to amend the Warrant to be exercisable until the later of December 31, 2017 and the date that is six months following the date that sufficient shares of the Common Stock have been authorized to enable full exercise of the Warrant.

At the time of the Warrant’s issuance, the Issuer had 744,611 shares of Common Stock available for issuance (calculated as the difference between the 3,744,611 shares of Common Stock available for issuance disclosed in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on February 9, 2017 and the 3,000,000 Purchased Shares issued on February 10, 2017). This limit on the shares of Common Stock available for issuance would have permitted only the partial exercise of the Warrant. The full exercise of the Warrant would be subject to the approval by the Issuer’s stockholders of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to increase the maximum number of authorized shares of Common Stock, which was a material contingency outside of the control of the Reporting Person. Accordingly, at the time of the Warrant’s issuance, the Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership (consisting of the Purchased Shares and the number of authorized shares available for issuance upon partial exercise of the Warrant) was approximately 3.5% of the outstanding Common Stock. On June 29, 2017, the Issuer’s stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation to increase the maximum number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The increase provided for a sufficient number of authorized shares to permit the full exercise of the Warrant. As a result, on June 29, 2017, the Reporting Person’s beneficial ownership (consisting of the Purchased Shares and the full number of Warrant Shares) increased to 8.2% of the outstanding Common Stock.

Upon the occurrence of certain transactions prior to the expiration date of the Warrant directly or indirectly constituting a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets, purchase offer, tender offer, exchange offer, reclassification or reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock, compulsory exchange of Common Stock or sale to another person of more than 50% of the Common Stock (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of any warrant under the Warrant Agreement, the Reporting Person (so long as it owns any warrant under the Warrant Agreement) will have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at its option, the number of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the successor or acquiring corporation of the Issuer, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which such warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.

As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Person has not exercised the Warrant. The Reporting Person is not entitled, by virtue of holding the Warrant, to vote, to consent, to receive dividends, to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder with respect to any meeting of stockholders for the election of the Issuer’s directors or any other matter, or to exercise any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Issuer unless, until and only to the extent the Reporting Person becomes a holder of record of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

The issuances of the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, and neither the Purchased Shares nor the Warrant Shares may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under or exemption from the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

CUSIP No. 452907108 13D Page 6 of 8 Pages

Registration Rights Agreement

On the Equity Closing Date, the Reporting Person entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Issuer pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to file a registration statement in respect of the Shares. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer is required to file a registration statement with respect to the Shares with the SEC and to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC within certain time periods following the Equity Closing Date. The Issuer has also agreed to other customary obligations regarding registration of the Shares, including matters relating to indemnification, maintenance of the registration statement and payment of certain expenses.

The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Warrant Agreement, Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of such agreements filed as Exhibits 99.1 through 99.4 hereto.
