Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Nektar Therapeutics, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company” or the “Issuer”), and each of the Guarantors (as hereinafter defined) hereby
agree with you as follows:

 

1.          Issuance of Notes. Subject
to the terms and conditions herein contained, the Issuer proposes to issue and sell to Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”)
and CRT Capital Group LLC (“CRT” and, together with Cowen, the “Initial Purchasers”) $125,000,000
in aggregate principal amount of 12.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (each a “Note” and, collectively, the
“Notes”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), to be dated
as of July 11, 2012, by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee
(in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”).
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in the “Description of the Notes”
section of the Final Offering Memorandum (as hereinafter defined).

 

The Notes will be offered and sold to the
Initial Purchasers pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder (collectively, the “Securities
Act”). Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements
of the Securities Act, the Notes shall bear the legends set forth in the final offering memorandum, dated the date hereof (the
“Final Offering Memorandum”). The Issuer has prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated July 2, 2012
(the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), (ii) a pricing term sheet, dated the date hereof, attached hereto as
Schedule II, which includes pricing terms and other information with respect to the Notes (the “Pricing Supplement”),
and (iii) the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case, relating to the offer and sale of the Notes (the “Offering”).
All references in this Agreement to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document (as hereinafter defined) or
the Final Offering Memorandum include, unless expressly stated otherwise, (i) all amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) all documents,
financial statements and schedules and other information contained, incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference
therein (and references in this Agreement to such information being “contained,” “included” or “stated”
(and other references of like import) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum
shall be deemed to mean all such information contained, incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference therein),
(iii) any electronic Time of Sale Document or Final Offering Memorandum and (iv) any offering memorandum “wrapper”
to be used in connection with offers to sell, solicitations of offers to buy or sales of the Notes in non-U.S. jurisdictions. The
Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are collectively referred to herein as the “Time of Sale Document.”

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

2.          Terms of Offering. The
Initial Purchasers have advised the Issuer, and the Issuer understands, that the Initial Purchasers will make offers to sell (the
“Exempt Resales”) some or all of the Notes purchased by the Initial Purchasers hereunder on the terms set forth
in the Final Offering Memorandum to persons (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) whom the Initial Purchasers reasonably
believe (i) are “qualified institutional buyers” (“QIBs”) (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act), or (ii) are not “U.S. persons” (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) and in compliance with the
laws applicable to such persons in jurisdictions outside of the United States.

 

Pursuant to the Indenture, all Domestic
Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company shall fully and unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis,
to each holder of the Notes and the Trustee, the payment and performance of the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture
and the Notes (each such subsidiary being referred to herein as a “Guarantor” and each such guarantee being
referred to herein as a “Guarantee” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Collateral
Documents, all of the obligations under the Securities and the Indenture will be secured by a first priority lien and security
interest in substantially all of the assets (other than the Excluded Assets and subject to the Excluded Perfection Assets) of the
Issuer and the Guarantors (except for any prior ranking liens by holders of certain Permitted Liens). The Company will enter into
an Escrow and Deposit Account Control Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), to be dated as of the Closing Date,
with the Collateral Agent and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as escrow agent, pursuant to which the Company will deposit
$25.0 million of the proceeds of the Notes into a segregated escrow account.

 

This Agreement, the Indenture, the Escrow
Agreement, the Collateral Documents, the Notes, the Guarantees and the Engagement Letter, dated May 15, 2012 (the “Engagement
Letter”) between the Company and the Initial Purchasers
are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents,” and the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions.”
Nothing in this Agreement should be read to limit or otherwise modify the terms and provisions of the Engagement Letter,
provided that, in the event any terms of the Engagement Letter are inconsistent with or contradict any terms of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall govern.

place as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers); provided, however, that if the Closing has not
taken place on the Closing Date because of a failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions specified in Section 7 hereof and

shall mean 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the first business day following the satisfaction (or waiver) of all such conditions.

3.          Representations and Warranties
of the Issuer and the Guarantors. Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors jointly and severally represents and warrants to,
and agrees with, the Initial Purchasers that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

 

		(a)	Offering Materials Furnished to Initial Purchasers. The Issuer has delivered to the Initial Purchasers the Time of Sale
Document, the Final Offering Memorandum and each Issuer Additional Written Communication (as hereinafter defined) in such quantities
and at such places as the Initial Purchasers have reasonably requested.

 

    	3

(including any roadshow or investor presentation materials) or other written communications, in each case used in accordance with

and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the respective dates and for the respective periods indicated. All other financial, statistical
and market and industry data contained in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum are based on or derived from
sources that the Company believes to be reliable and accurate or represent the Company’s good faith estimates that are made
on the basis of data derived from such sources. No person who has been suspended or barred from being associated with a registered
public accounting firm, or who has failed to comply with any sanction pursuant to Rule 5300 promulgated by the PCAOB, has participated
in or otherwise aided the preparation of, or audited, the Financial Statements or other financial data, included in or filed with
the SEC and incorporated by reference as a part of, the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum.

to result in a material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects,
whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, of the Company and its Subsidiaries, considered as
one entity (any such change is called a “Material Adverse Change”); (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries, considered
as one entity, have not incurred any material liability or obligation, indirect, direct or contingent, not in the ordinary course
of business nor entered into any material transaction or agreement not in the ordinary course of business, other than the transactions
contemplated pursuant to this Agreement; and (iii) there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made
by the Company or, except for dividends paid to the Company or other Subsidiaries, any of its Subsidiaries on any class of capital

partnership or limited liability company power, as applicable, and authority (corporate or other) to own, lease and operate its
properties and to conduct its business as described in the Time of Sale Document and in the Final Offering Memorandum and, in the
case of the Company, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, except where the failure to be in good standing
would not, individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Each of the
Company and each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable,
to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of
the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing

refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company or any such Subsidiary. There are no authorized
or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other rights to purchase, or equity or debt securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries other than those
accurately described in the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum.

executed and delivered by the Issuer and the Guarantors. Each of the Indenture and the Collateral Documents has been duly authorized
by the Issuer and the Guarantors. Each of the Indenture, the Escrow Agreement and the Collateral Documents, when executed and delivered

constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation the Issuer and the Guarantors, enforceable against the Issuer and the Guarantors
in accordance with its terms, except that the enforcement thereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
receivership, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating
to creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (whether applied by a court of law or equity) and the
discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. When executed and delivered, the Indenture, the Escrow

Initial Purchasers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Indenture, will have been duly executed, authenticated,

with their terms, except that the enforcement thereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership,

		(o)	Compliance with Existing Instruments. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of its charter
or by-laws, partnership agreement or operating agreement or similar organizational document, as applicable, or is in default (or,
with the giving of notice or lapse of time, would be in default) (“Default”) under any indenture, mortgage,
loan or credit agreement, note, contract, franchise, lease or other instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound (including, without limitation, any credit agreement, indenture, pledge agreement,
security agreement or other instrument or agreement evidencing, guaranteeing, securing or relating to indebtedness of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries ), or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject (each,
an “Existing Instrument”), except for such Defaults as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. The Company’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement,
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum and the issuance
and sale of the Securities (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not result in any violation
of the provisions of the charter or by-laws, partnership agreement or operating agreement or similar organizational document of
the Company or any Subsidiary, as applicable, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default or a Debt Repayment
Triggering Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien (other than Permitted Liens), charge
or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to, or require the consent of any
other party to, any Existing Instrument, except for such breaches, Defaults or results, or failure to obtain such consent, as would
not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Change and (iii) will not result
in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary
(the “Applicable Laws”), except for such violations as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in
the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Change. As used herein, a “Debt Repayment Triggering Event” means
any event or condition which gives, or with the giving of notice or lapse of time would give, the holder of any note, debenture
or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption
or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

		(p)	No Consents. No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other
governmental or regulatory authority or agency, is required for the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum,
except such (i) as have been obtained or made by the Company and are in full force and effect (ii) as may be required under the
Securities Act, applicable state and non-U.S. securities or blue sky laws and from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(“FINRA”) and (iii) those contemplated by the Collateral Documents.

 

    	9

    	 

    

  

		(q)	No Material Applicable Laws or Proceedings. Except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum,
there are no legal or governmental actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, threatened
(i) against or directly affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) which have as the subject thereof any officer or
director (in their capacity as such) of, or property owned or leased by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) relating
to environmental or discrimination matters, where in any such case (A) to the Company’s knowledge, there is a substantial
likelihood that such action, suit or proceeding will be determined adversely to the Company, such Subsidiary or such officer or
director, (B) any such action, suit or proceeding, if so determined adversely, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Change or adversely affect the consummation of the Transactions or (C) any such action, suit or proceeding is or would
be material in the context of the sale of the Securities.

 

		(r)	All Necessary Permits. The Company and each Subsidiary possess such valid and current certificates, authorizations or
permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct their respective
businesses, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, or has any reason to believe that it will receive, any notice
of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of, or non-compliance with, any such certificate, authorization or permit
which, individually or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Change.

 

		(s)	Title to Properties. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of the real and personal
property and other assets owned by it, in each case free and clear of any security interests, mortgages, liens, encumbrances, equities,
adverse claims and other defects, except as set forth in the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum or as do not materially
and adversely affect the value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such
property by the Company or such Subsidiary. To the Company’s knowledge, the real property, improvements, equipment and personal
property held under lease by the Company or any Subsidiary are held under valid and enforceable leases, with such exceptions as
are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such real property, improvements,
equipment or personal property by the Company or such Subsidiary.

 

		(t)	Tax Law Compliance. The Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries have filed all necessary federal, state and foreign
income and franchise tax returns or have properly requested extensions thereof and have paid all taxes required to be paid by any
of them and, if due and payable, any related or similar assessment, fine or penalty levied against any of them except as may be
being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings. The Company has made adequate charges, accruals and reserves in the
applicable Financial Statements in respect of all federal, state and foreign income and franchise taxes for all periods as to which
the tax liability of the Company or any of its consolidated Subsidiaries has not been finally determined.

 

    	10

    	 

    

  

		(u)	Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess, or can acquire or license on reasonable
terms, sufficient trademarks, trade names, patent rights, copyrights, domain names, licenses, approvals, trade secrets and other
similar rights (collectively, “Intellectual Property Rights”) reasonably necessary to conduct their businesses
as now conducted, except as such failure to own, possess, license, or acquire such rights would not reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Change; and the expected expiration of any of such Intellectual Property Rights would not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Change. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received, or has any reason to believe that it will receive, any notice of infringement
or conflict with asserted Intellectual Property Rights of others. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result, individually
or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change, (A) to the Company’s knowledge, there is no infringement, misappropriation
or violation by third parties of any of the Intellectual Property Rights owned by the Company; (B) there is no pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging the rights of
the Company and its Subsidiaries in or to any such Intellectual Property Rights, and the Company is unaware of any facts which
would form a reasonable basis for any such claim, that would individually, or in the aggregate, together with any other claims
in this subsection (v), reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; (C) the Intellectual Property Rights owned
by the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the Company’s knowledge, the Intellectual Property Rights licensed to the Company
and its Subsidiaries have not been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part,
and there is no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging
the validity or scope of any such Intellectual Property Rights, and the Company is unaware of any facts which would form a reasonable
basis for any such claim that would individually, or in the aggregate, together with any other claims in this subsection (v), reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; (D) there is no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened action,
suit, proceeding or claim by others that the Company or its Subsidiaries infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any Intellectual
Property Rights or other proprietary rights of others, the Company and its Subsidiaries have not received any written notice of
such claim and the Company is unaware of any other facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such claim that would individually,
or in the aggregate, together with any other claims in this subsection (v) reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change; (E) the Company is not aware of any prior art that could reasonably be expected to render any patent held by or licensed
to the Company or any Subsidiary invalid or any U.S. patent application held by or licensed to the Company or any Subsidiary unpatentable
which prior art was required to be disclosed to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during the prosecution of the applicable patent
application and which was not so disclosed to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the failure of which to so disclose would individually,
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; (F) to the Company’s knowledge, all prior
art references relevant to the patentability of any pending claim of any patent applications comprising or that have resulted in
Intellectual Property Rights known to the Company, applicable inventor(s) or licensors, or any of their counsel during the prosecution
of such patent applications that were required to be disclosed to the relevant patent authority were so disclosed by the required
time, except where the failure to so disclose would not individually, or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Change, and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, neither the Company nor any such inventor, licensor
or counsel made any misrepresentation to, or omitted any material fact from, the relevant patent authority during such prosecution,
which would individually, or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; and (G) to the Company’s
knowledge, no employee of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is in or has ever been in violation in any material respect
of any term of any employment contract, patent disclosure agreement, invention assignment agreement, non-competition agreement,
non-solicitation agreement, nondisclosure agreement or any restrictive covenant to or with a former employer where the basis of
such violation relates to such employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, or actions undertaken
by the employee while employed with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company and would reasonably be expected to result, individually
or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Change. To the Company’s knowledge, all material technical information developed
by and belonging to the Company and its Subsidiaries for which they have not sought, and do not intend to seek to patent or otherwise
protect pursuant to applicable intellectual property laws has been kept confidential or has been disclosed only under obligations
of confidentiality. The Company is not a party to or bound by any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the Intellectual
Property Rights of any other person or entity that are required to be set forth in the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering
Memorandum and are not described therein. None of the technology employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has been obtained
or is being used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of any contractual obligation binding on the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s knowledge, any of its or its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors or employees
or otherwise in violation of the rights of any persons, except in each case for such violations that would not reasonably be expected
to result in a Material Adverse Change.

		(v)	ERISA Matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries and any “employee benefit plan” (as defined under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (collectively,
“ERISA”)) established or maintained by the Company, its Subsidiaries or their “ERISA Affiliates”
(as defined below) are in compliance in all material respects with ERISA. “ERISA Affiliate” means, with respect
to the Company or a Subsidiary, any member of any group of organizations described in Sections 414(b),(c),(m) or (o) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (the “Code”)
of which the Company or such Subsidiary is a member. No “reportable event” (as defined under ERISA) has occurred or
is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any “employee benefit plan” established or maintained by the Company,
its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates. No “employee benefit plan” subject to Title IV of ERISA established
or maintained by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates, if such “employee benefit plan” were
terminated, would have any “amount of unfunded benefit liabilities” (as defined under ERISA). Neither the Company,
its Subsidiaries nor any of their ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability under Title IV of
ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “employee benefit plan.” Each “employee benefit
plan” established or maintained by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates that is intended to be
qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, which
would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification.

 

    	12

    	 

    

  

		(w)	Labor Matters. (i) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is party to any collective bargaining agreement with
any labor organization; and (ii) no labor dispute with the employees of the Company or the Guarantors exists or, to the knowledge
of the Company or the Guarantors, is imminent that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

		(x)	Compliance with Environmental Laws. Except as described in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum
and except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, (i) neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, rule, regulation,
ordinance, code, policy or rule of common law or any judicial or administrative interpretation thereof, including any judicial
or administrative order, consent, decree or judgment, relating to pollution or protection of human health, the environment (including,
without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata) or wildlife, including, without
limitation, laws and regulations relating to the release or threatened release of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, wastes,
toxic substances, hazardous substances, petroleum or petroleum products (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”)
or to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials
(collectively, “Environmental Laws”), (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries have all permits, authorizations
and approvals required under any applicable Environmental Laws and are each in compliance with their requirements, (iii) there
are no pending or threatened administrative, regulatory or judicial actions, suits, demands, demand letters, claims, liens, notices
of noncompliance or violation, investigation or proceedings relating to any Environmental Law against the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries and (iv) there are no events or circumstances that might reasonably be expected to form the basis of an order for
clean-up or remediation, or an action, suit or proceeding by any private party or governmental body or agency, against or affecting
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to Hazardous Materials or any Environmental Laws.

 

		(y)	Insurance. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is insured by recognized, financially sound and reputable institutions
with policies in such amounts and with such deductibles and covering such risks as are generally deemed adequate and customary
for their businesses including, but not limited to, policies covering real and personal property owned or leased by the Company
and its Subsidiaries against theft, damage, destruction, acts of vandalism and policies covering the Company and its Subsidiaries
for product liability claims and clinical trial liability claims. The Company has no reason to believe that it or any Subsidiary
will not be able (i) to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such policies expire or (ii) to obtain comparable coverage
from similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct its business as now conducted and at a cost that would
not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. During the past three years, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
has been denied any insurance coverage which it has sought or for which it has applied.

 

    	13

    	 

    

  

		(z)	Accounting System. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries make and keep accurate books and records and maintain a
system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance
with management’s general or specific authorization; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only
in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared
with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. There has not been
and is no material weakness or significant deficiency in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether
or not remediated) and since December 31, 2011, 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.

 

		(aa)	Use of Proceeds; Solvency; Going Concern. All indebtedness represented by the Securities is being incurred for the purposes
described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum. On the
Closing Date, after giving pro forma effect to the Offering and the use of proceeds therefrom described under the caption “Use
of Proceeds” in the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum, the Issuer and each Guarantor will be Solvent (as
hereinafter defined). As used in this paragraph, the term “Solvent” means, with respect to a particular date, that
on such date (i) the present fair market value (or present fair saleable value) of the assets of the Issuer and each Guarantor
is not less than the total amount required to pay the liabilities of such Issuer or Guarantor on its total existing debts and liabilities
(including contingent liabilities) as they become absolute and matured; (ii) the Issuer and each Guarantor is able to pay
its debts and other liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments as they mature; (iii) assuming consummation of the
issuance of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement and the Time of Sale Document and Final Offering Memorandum, the Issuer
and each Guarantor is not incurring debts or liabilities beyond its ability to pay as such debts and liabilities mature; and (iv) neither
the Issuer nor any of the Guarantors is engaged in any business or transaction, and does not propose to engage in any business
or transaction, for which its property would constitute unreasonably small capital after giving due consideration to the prevailing
practice in the industry in which such Issuer or Guarantor are engaged.

 

		(bb)	No Price Stabilization or Manipulation. Neither the Issuer nor any of its respective Affiliates (as defined in Rule
501(b) under the Securities Act) has and, to the Issuer’s knowledge, after due inquiry, no one acting on such Issuer’s
or Affiliate’s behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that has constituted
or which might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Issuer,
whether to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities or otherwise, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid anyone any
compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Document and
the Final Offering Memorandum, paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other
securities of the Issuer.

 

    	14

    	 

    

  

		(cc)	No Registration Required Under the Securities Act or Qualification Under the TIA. Without limiting any provision herein,
no registration under the Securities Act and no qualification of the Indenture under the TIA is required for the offer or sale
of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers as contemplated hereby or for the Exempt Resales, assuming (i) that the purchasers
in the Exempt Resales are QIBs or are not “U.S. persons” (as defined under Regulation S of the Securities Act) and
(ii) the accuracy of the Initial Purchasers’ representations contained herein regarding the absence of general solicitation
in connection with the sale of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers and in the Exempt Resales.

 

		(dd)	No Integration. The Securities will be, upon issuance, eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities
Act and no other securities of the Issuer are of the same class (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act) as the
Securities and listed on a national securities exchange registered under Section 6 of the Exchange Act, or quoted in a U.S. automated
inter-dealer quotation system. No securities of the Issuer of the same class as the Securities have been offered, issued or sold
by the Issuer or any of its respective Affiliates within the six-month period immediately prior to the date hereof; and the Issuer
has no intention of making, and will not make, an offer or sale of such securities of the Issuer of the same class as the Securities,
for a period of six months after the date of this Agreement, except for the offering of the Securities as contemplated by this
Agreement. As used in this paragraph, the terms “offer” and “sale” have the meanings specified in Section
2(a)(3) of the Securities Act.

 

		(ee)	No Directed Selling Efforts. Neither the Issuer, nor any of its respective Affiliates or any other person acting on
behalf of the Issuer has, with respect to Securities sold outside the United States, offered the Securities to buyers qualifying
as “U.S. persons” (as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act) or engaged in any directed selling efforts within
the meaning of Rule 902 under the Securities Act; the Issuer, any Affiliate of the Issuer and any person acting on behalf of the
Issuer has complied with and will implement the “offering restrictions” within the meaning of such Rule 902; and neither
the Issuer nor any of its respective Affiliates has entered or will enter into any arrangement or agreement with respect to the
distribution of the Securities, except for this Agreement; provided that no representation is made in this paragraph with
respect to the actions of the Initial Purchasers. 

 

		(ff)	No Applicable Registration or Other Similar Rights. There are no persons with registration or other similar rights to
have any equity or debt securities of the Issuer or any Affiliate registered for sale under a registration statement, except for
rights as have been duly waived.  

 

		(gg)	Margin Requirements. None of the Transactions or the application of the proceeds of the Securities will violate or result
in a violation of Regulation T (12 C.F.R. Part 220), Regulation U (12 C.F.R. Part 221) or Regulation X (12 C.F.R. Part 224) of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

		(hh)	Investment Company Act. The Company has been advised of the rules and requirements under the Investment Company Act

of payment for the Securities or after the application of the proceeds therefrom as described under “Use of Proceeds”
in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment
Company Act and will conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act.

 

		(ii)	No Brokers. There is no broker, finder or other party that is entitled to receive from the Company any brokerage or
finder’s fee or other fee or commission as a result of any Transactions (other than commissions or fees to the Initial Purchasers
and the Collateral Agent).

 

		(jj)	No Restrictions on Payments of Dividends. No Subsidiary of the Company is prohibited or restricted, directly or indirectly,
from paying dividends to the Company, or from making any other distribution with respect to such Subsidiary’s equity securities
or from repaying to the Company or any other Subsidiary of the Company any amounts that may from time to time become due under
any loans or advances to such Subsidiary from the Company or from transferring any property or assets to the Company or to any
other Subsidiary.

 

		(kk)	Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. None of the Company, any Subsidiary or, to the Company’s knowledge, any director,
officer, employee or any agent, or other person acting on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, is aware of or has taken any
action, directly or indirectly, that has resulted or would result in a violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977,
as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “FCPA”), including, without limitation, making use
of the mails or any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay
or authorization of the payment of any money, or other property, gift, promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything
of value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or official
thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention of the FCPA; and the Company and its Subsidiaries and,
to the Company’s knowledge, the Company’s affiliates have conducted their respective businesses in compliance with
the FCPA and have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure, and which are reasonably expected to continue
to ensure, continued compliance therewith.

 

		(ll)	Money Laundering. The operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries are, and have been conducted at all times, in compliance
with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970,
as amended, the money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related
or similar applicable rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively,
the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency,
authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws

sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”); and
the Company will not directly or indirectly use the proceeds of this offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available

its Subsidiaries were and, if still pending, are being conducted in compliance with experimental protocols, procedures and controls
pursuant to accepted professional scientific standards and all applicable laws and authorizations, including, without limitation,
the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, except where the failure to be in
compliance has not resulted and would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; the descriptions of the
results of such studies, tests and trials contained in the Time of Sale Document and the Final Offering Memorandum are accurate
and complete in all material respects and fairly present the data derived from such studies, tests and trials; the Company is not
aware of any studies, tests or trials, the results of which the Company believes reasonably call into question the study, test,

are not conducting business in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations of the jurisdictions in which it is conducting
business, except where failure to be so in compliance would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.
The Company has not received any FDA Form 483, notice of adverse finding, warning letter, untitled letter or other correspondence

has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)), which

(each an “Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities of any kind to which such
Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation,
or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent
of the Company, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon:

 

    	26

    	 

    

  

(i)          any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Time of Sale Document, any Issuer Additional Written

with investigating, defending against, settling, compromising, paying or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with
any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that neither the
Issuer nor the Guarantors will be liable in any such case to the extent (but only to the extent) that a court of competent jurisdiction
shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arose out of or was
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Time of Sale Document,
any Issuer Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case, as amended or supplemented, in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Issuer by the Initial Purchasers specifically for use therein,
it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Initial Purchasers to the Issuer consists of the
information set forth in Section 13. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section shall be in addition to any liability that
the Issuer and the Guarantors may otherwise have to the indemnified parties.

 

(b)          Indemnification
by the Initial Purchasers. Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer,
the Guarantors and each of their respective directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”)
against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Issuer, such Purchaser Indemnified Party may become subject
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act other federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as a court
of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final, unappealable judgment that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities

of any material fact contained in the Time of Sale Document or the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case, as amended or supplemented
or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent (but only to the extent) that

other expenses incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising

    	27

    	 

    

  

(c)          Notifications
and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement
of any action for which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification under this Section, such indemnified party will,
if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section, notify the indemnifying party of
the commencement thereof in writing; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve such indemnifying
party from any liability under Section 8(a) or (b) above unless and only to the extent it is materially prejudiced as a proximate
result thereof and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other
than the indemnification obligation provided in Section 8(a) and (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified
party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate
therein and, to the extent that it may elect, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified
party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however,
that if (i) the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and the indemnified
party shall have concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (ii)
the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party within a reasonable time after receipt by the indemnifying party of notice of the institution of such action, then, in each
such case, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party
or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf
of such indemnified party or parties at the expense of the indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by such indemnified party of counsel appointed
to defend such action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or
other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the
immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall
not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate
but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, designated
by the Initial Purchasers in the case of Section 8(a) or the Company in the case of Section 8(b), representing the indemnified
parties under such Section 8(a) or (b), as the case may be, who are parties to such action or actions), (ii) the indemnifying party
has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party or (iii)
the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent
the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and
expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party and shall be paid as they are incurred. After such
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party, the indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses
of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such indemnifying party waived in writing its rights under this Section,
in which case the indemnified party may effect such a settlement without such consent.

 

    	28

    	 

    

  

(d)          Settlements.
No indemnifying party shall be liable under this Section for any settlement of any claim or action (or threatened claim or action)
effected without its written consent, but if a claim or action settled with its written consent, or if there be a final judgment
for the plaintiff with respect to any such claim or action, each indemnifying party jointly and severally agrees, subject to the
exceptions and limitations set forth above, to indemnify and hold harmless each indemnified party from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (and legal and other expenses as set forth above) incurred by reason of such settlement
or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the indemnified
party is or could have been a party, or indemnity could have been sought hereunder by the indemnified party, unless such settlement
(A) includes an unconditional written release of the indemnified party, in form and substance satisfactory to the indemnified party,
from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to an admission
of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party.

 

    	29

    	 

    

 

(e)          Contribution.
In circumstances in which the indemnity agreements provided for in this Section is unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless,
an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), each indemnifying
party, in order to provide for just and equitable contributions, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified
party, on the other hand, from the Offering or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by
applicable law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand,
and the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions
that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on
the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses)
received by the Issuer bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers. The relative fault of the
parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer, on the one hand, or
the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 8(b) above, on the other hand, the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or alleged statement or omissions, and any other
equitable considerations appropriate in the circumstances. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject
of this subsection.

 

(f)          Equitable
Consideration. The Issuer, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be equitable if the amount of
such contribution determined pursuant to Section 8(e) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method
of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(e). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section, the Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate
exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchasers under this Agreement, less the
aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchasers have otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged
untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations in
this subsection (f) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint. No person guilty
of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of Section 8(e), each director, officer and employee
of the Initial Purchasers, and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Initial Purchasers, and each
director, officer and employee of the Issuer and the Guarantors, and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer or any of the
Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, shall have the same rights
to contribution as the Issuer and the Guarantors.

 

    	30

    	 

    

 

8.          Termination.
The Initial Purchasers may terminate this Agreement at any time prior to the Closing Date by written notice to the Company if any
of the events described in Sections 7(f) (No Material Adverse Change), 7(g) (No Hostilities) or 7(h) (No Suspension in Trading;
Banking Moratorium) shall have occurred or if the Initial Purchasers shall decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted
by this Agreement. Any termination pursuant to this Section shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Issuer or the Guarantors
to the Initial Purchasers, except that the Issuer and the Guarantors shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Initial
Purchasers pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof or (b) the Initial Purchasers to the Issuer or the Guarantors, except, in the case of
each of clauses (a) and (b), that the provisions of Sections 9 and 11 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive
such termination.

 

9.          Defaulting
Initial Purchaser.

 

(a)          If,
on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase
hereunder, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons
satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial
Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be
entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers
to purchase such Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting
Initial Purchaser, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full
business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Initial Purchasers
may be necessary in the Time of Sale Information, the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company
agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Time of Sale Information or the Offering Memorandum that effects
any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement
unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 10, purchases
Securities that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

 

(b)          If,
after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers
by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of
such Securities that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities,
then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Securities
that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Initial Purchaser’s pro rata share (based
on the principal amount of Securities that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting
Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made.

 

(c)          If,
after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers
by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of
