B.                                    The Company, ANI and ANI Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of BioSante (“Merger Sub”), are entering into Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended from time to time, the “Amended and Restated  Merger Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into ANI (the “Merger”), after which time ANI will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company;

 

C.                                    As of the date hereof, Stockholder is the Beneficial Owner (as defined below) of, and has the sole right to vote and dispose of, that number of shares of common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Class C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (the “ANI Shares”) of ANI set forth beside Stockholder’s name on Schedule A hereto; and

 

D.                                    Concurrently with the entry by the Company, ANI and Merger Sub into the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to the willingness of the Company to enter into the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and incur the obligations set forth therein, the Company has required that Stockholder enter into this Agreement in order to amend and restate the Original Voting Agreement in its entirety;

 

Accordingly, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I.
  Definitions

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement are used in this Agreement with the meanings given to such terms in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement.  In addition, for purposes of this Agreement:

 

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified person, a person who, at the time of determination, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such specified person.  For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to Stockholder, “Affiliate” does not include ANI and the persons that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, are controlled by ANI.  For the avoidance of

 

B-1











 

doubt, no officer or director of ANI will be deemed an Affiliate of another officer or director of ANI by virtue of his or her status as an officer or director of ANI.

 

“Beneficially Owned” or “Beneficial Ownership” with respect to any securities means having beneficial ownership of such securities (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, disregarding the phrase “within 60 days” in paragraph (d)(1)(i) thereof), including pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing.  Without duplicative counting of the same securities, securities Beneficially Owned by a person include securities Beneficially Owned by (i) all Affiliates of such person, and (ii) all other persons with whom such person would constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

 

“Beneficial Owner” with respect to any securities means a person that has Beneficial Ownership of such securities.

 

“person” has the meaning ascribed thereto in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement.

 

“Subject Shares” means, with respect to Stockholder, without duplication, (i) the ANI Shares owned by Stockholder on the date hereof as described on Schedule A, and (ii) any additional ANI Shares acquired by Stockholder or over which Stockholder acquires Beneficial Ownership from and after the date hereof, whether pursuant to existing stock option agreements, warrants or otherwise.  Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, in the event that ANI changes the number of ANI Shares issued and outstanding prior to the Expiration Date as a result of a reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, combination, recapitalization, subdivision, or other similar transaction, the number of Subject Shares subject to this Agreement will be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

 

“Transfer” means, with respect to a security, the sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or disposition of such security or the Beneficial Ownership thereof, and each option, agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing, to effect any of the foregoing.  As a verb, “Transfer” has a correlative meaning.

 

ARTICLE II.
  Covenants of Stockholder

 

2.1                               Irrevocable Proxy.  Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Stockholder agrees to deliver to the Company a proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Proxy”), which will be irrevocable to the extent provided in Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), with respect to the Subject Shares referred to therein.

Any vote or consent (or withholding of consent) by Stockholder that is not in accordance with this Section 2.2 will be considered null and void, and the provisions of the Proxy will be deemed to take immediate effect.

Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of furnishing any non-public information relating to ANI or any of its Subsidiaries), or knowingly induce or knowingly take any other action which would reasonably be expected to lead to the making, submission or announcement of, any proposal or inquiry that

 

B-3











 

constitutes, or is reasonably likely to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (b) other than informing Persons of the provisions contained in Section 5.3 of the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, enter into, continue or participate in any discussions or any negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal or otherwise take any action to knowingly facilitate or knowingly induce any effort or attempt to make or implement an Acquisition Proposal (including any Acquisition Proposal received prior to the date of this Agreement); (iii) approve, endorse or recommend an Acquisition Proposal or any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or Contract contemplating an Acquisition Proposal or requiring ANI to abandon or terminate its obligations under the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, or enter into any of the foregoing; or (iv) agree, resolve or commit to do any of the foregoing.

 

2.5                               No Transfer of Subject Shares; Publicity.  Stockholder agrees that:

 

(a)                                 Stockholder (i) will not Transfer or agree to Transfer any of the Subject Shares or, with respect to any matter described in Section 2.2(a), grant any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any of the Subject Shares, (ii) will take all action reasonably necessary to prevent creditors in respect of any pledge of the Subject Shares from exercising their rights under such pledge, and (iii) will not take any action that would make in a material respect any of its representations or warranties contained herein untrue or incorrect or would have the effect of preventing or disabling the Stockholder from performing any of its material obligations hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stockholder may Transfer and agree to Transfer any of the Subject Shares provided that each person to which any such Subject Shares are Transferred has (x) executed a counterpart of this Agreement and a Proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (with such modifications as the Company may reasonably request), and (y) agreed in writing to hold such Subject Shares subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Unless required by Applicable Law or permitted by the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, Stockholder will not, and will not authorize or direct any of its Affiliates or Representatives to, make any press release or public announcement with respect to this Agreement or the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, without the prior written consent of the Company in each instance.

Stockholder is entering into this Agreement solely in Stockholder’s capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner, as applicable, of the Subject Shares and not in Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of ANI.

6.5                               Entire Agreement and Modification.  This Agreement, the Proxy and any other documents delivered by the parties in connection herewith constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to its subject matter and constitute (along with the documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter.  This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written document executed by the party against whose interest the modification will operate.  The parties will not enter into any other agreement inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Proxy, or that addresses any of the subject matters addressed in this Agreement and the Proxy.

 

6.6                               Drafting and Representation.  The parties agree that the terms and language of this Agreement were the result of negotiations between the parties and, as a result, there will be no presumption that any ambiguities in this Agreement will be resolved against any party.  Any controversy over construction of this Agreement will be decided without regard to events of authorship or negotiation.

 

6.7                               Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof.  Any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision will be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

 

6.8                               No Third-Party Rights.  Stockholder may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, except as permitted pursuant to Section 2.5(a).  The Company may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to Stockholder without the

 

B-8











 

prior written consent of Stockholder.  This Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of each of the respective successors, personal or legal representatives, heirs, distributes, devisees, legatees, executors, administrators and permitted assigns of Stockholder and the successors and permitted assigns of the Company.  Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any person, other than the parties to this Agreement, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement except such rights as may inure to a successor or permitted assignee under this Section.

 

6.9                               Enforcement of Agreement.  Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the Company could be damaged irreparably if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by Stockholder could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages.  Accordingly, Stockholder agrees that, (a) it will waive, in any action for specific performance, the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law, and (b) in addition to any other right or remedy to which the Company may be entitled, at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

 

6.10                        Waiver.  The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative.  Neither any failure nor any delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, the Proxy or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement, the Proxy or any of the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in a written document signed by the other party, (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given, and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement, the Proxy or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

 

6.11                        Governing Law.  This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto will be governed by, construed under and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts or choice of law.

 

6.12                        Consent to Jurisdiction.  Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement, the Proxy or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will be brought exclusively in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or, if such court does not have jurisdiction over the subject matter of such proceeding or if such jurisdiction is not available, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, and each of the parties hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts (and of the appropriate appellate

 

B-9











 

courts therefrom) in any suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any of those courts or that any suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any of those courts has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  Process in any suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any of the named courts.  Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on it by notice as provided in Section 6.3 will be deemed effective service of process.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

6.13                        Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original, but all of which, taken together, will constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature (including signatures in Adobe PDF or similar format).

EXHIBIT A

 

IRREVOCABLE PROXY

 

From and after the date hereof and until the Expiration Date (as defined below), the undersigned stockholder (“Stockholder”) of ANIP Acquisition Company, a Delaware corporation (“ANI”), hereby irrevocably (to the full extent permitted by Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) grants to, and appoints, BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and any designee of the Company, and each of them individually, as the sole and exclusive attorney and proxy of the undersigned, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote the Subject Shares (as defined in the Voting Agreement) of the Stockholder, or grant a consent or approval in respect of the Subject Shares of the Stockholder, in a manner consistent with Section 2.2 of the Voting Agreement (as defined below).  Upon the undersigned’s execution of this Proxy, any and all prior proxies given by the undersigned with respect to any Subject Shares relating to the voting rights expressly provided herein are hereby revoked and the undersigned agrees not to grant any subsequent proxies with respect to the Subject Shares relating to such voting rights at any time prior to the Expiration Date.

 

This Proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted pursuant to that certain Voting Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Voting Agreement”) of even date herewith, by and among the Company and Stockholder, and is granted in consideration of the Company entering into the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement (as defined in the Voting Agreement).  As used herein, the term “Expiration Date,” and all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined, will have the meanings set forth in the Voting Agreement.  The Stockholder agrees that this proxy will be irrevocable until the Expiration Date and is coupled with an interest sufficient at law to support an irrevocable proxy and given to the Company as an inducement to enter into the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, will be valid and binding on any person to whom Stockholder may transfer any of his, her or its Subject Shares in breach of the Voting Agreement.  The Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

 

The attorneys and proxies named above, and each of them, are hereby authorized and empowered by the undersigned, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, to act as the undersigned’s attorney and proxy to vote the Subject Shares, and to exercise all voting and other rights of the undersigned with respect to the Subject Shares (including, without limitation, the power to execute and deliver written consents pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law), at every annual, special or adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in every written consent in lieu of such meeting in a manner consistent with Section 2.2 of the Voting Agreement.

 

This Proxy will be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Subject Shares), and all authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred will survive the death or incapacity of the Stockholder.

 

B-13











 

If any provision of this Proxy or any part of any such provision is held under any circumstances to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then (a) such provision or part thereof will, with respect to such circumstances and in such jurisdiction, be deemed amended to conform to applicable laws so as to be valid and enforceable to the fullest possible extent, (b) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision or part thereof under such circumstances and in such jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision or part thereof under any other circumstances or in any other jurisdiction, and (c) the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision or part thereof will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of such provision or the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Proxy.  Each provision of this Proxy is separable from every other provision of this Proxy, and each part of each provision of this Proxy is separable from every other part of such provision.
