Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Effective February 13, 2017, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”) with select institutional investors (“Investors”), whereby the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors an aggregate of 7,049 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock units (the "Units") at a price per Unit of $1,495, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $10.5 million (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of: (i) one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company ("Preferred Shares"); and (ii) 1,000 Series A-1 Warrants ("Warrants") to purchase one share of Common Stock") ("Warrant Shares") at an exercise price equal to $1.37 (the "Exercise Price"). Each Preferred Share may be converted at the holder's option at any time into 1,000 shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock") at $1.37 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Warrants may be exercised beginning six months after the date of issuance and through the seventh anniversary of the date of issuance. The Preferred Shares and the Warrants may not be converted or exercised to the extent that the holder thereof would, following such exercise or conversion, beneficially own more than 9.99% (or other lesser percent as designated by each holder) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Preferred Shares and Warrants also contain customary provisions that adjust the Conversion Price or Exercise Price and the number of shares of common stock into which the Preferred Shares and Warrants are convertible or exercisable in the event of a corporate transaction. In addition to the Offering, the SPA also provides that, until February 13, 2018, the Investors shall be entitled to participate in the Company's subsequent bona fide capital raising transactions.

The Company conducted the Offering pursuant to Rule 506(b) and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The closing for the purchase of the Units occurred on Wednesday, February 15, 2017. The Offering was made to select investors directly without an underwriter or broker. The Company received approximately $10.5 million net proceeds from this Offering, including extinguishment of approximately $1.6M of future cash payments related to ongoing device development activities, after deducting the estimated offering expenses of approximately $70,000.

The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering primarily to complete the ongoing phase 2b clinical trial for AEROSURF^® (lucinactant for inhalation) in premature infants 28 to 32 week gestational age, and an ongoing AEROSURF phase 2a clinical program in premature infants 26 to 28 week gestational age, and fund the Company’s activities through the announcement of the resulting phase 2b data. The Company expects to complete the phase 2b program and announce results mid-year 2017. Pending application of the net proceeds, the Company expects to invest the proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing instruments or other investment-grade securities.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to file within 50 days of the closing date a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register for subsequent resale the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares.

Except as may be required under Delaware corporate law, the Preferred Shares do not have voting rights. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Designations”)), the holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets available for distribution to stockholders (i) before any payment is made to the holder of Common Stock, an amount per Preferred Share equal to $1,495 (the “Liquidation Value”), and after payment of any other preferential amounts payable to holders of other outstanding classes of preferred stock, (ii) out of the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, the holders of the Preferred Shares and Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation entitled to share in such distribution, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such securities as if they had been converted to Common Stock in accordance with their terms; provided that if the aggregate amount which the holders of Preferred Shares are entitled to receive exceeds an amount per share equal to three times (3x) the Liquidation Value, then the holders of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, if greater, the amount such holder would have received if all Preferred Shares had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such distribution.

The Company may cause the Preferred Shares to be mandatorily converted if after the first anniversary of the original issue date, the market value per share of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $4.11 for at least 20 consecutive trading days. Such mandatory conversion shall be subject to the beneficial ownership limitation described above.

The description of the terms and conditions of the SPA and the Registration Rights Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Company and the Investors in connection therewith are qualified by reference in their entirety to the definitive terms and conditions of the SPA and the Registration Rights Agreement, forms of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 hereto. In addition, the description of the rights and preferences of the Preferred Shares herein is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Designations, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto, and description of the Warrants herein is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Warrant, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto.

The foregoing description of the transaction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreements filed as exhibits to this report and incorporated herein by reference. The SPA and the Registration Rights Agreement are being filed in order to provide investors and the Company’s stockholders with information regarding their terms and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. Pursuant to each of the SPA and Registration Rights Agreement, each of the Company and the Investors made customary representations, warranties and covenants and agreed to indemnify each other for certain losses arising out of breaches of such representations, warranties, covenants and other specified matters. The representations, warranties and covenants were made by the parties to and solely for the benefit of each other and any expressly intended third party beneficiaries in the context of all of the terms and conditions of the agreements and in the context of the specific relationship between the parties. Accordingly, investors and stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants. Furthermore, investors and stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants as characterizations of the actual state of facts or continuing intentions of the parties, since they were only made as of the date of the agreements. Information concerning the subject matter of such representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the agreements, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s reports or other filings with the Commission.

Section 5. Liquidation and Deemed Liquidation Event.

a) Preferential Payments to Holders of Series A Preferred Stock. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or Deemed Liquidation Event, the holders of shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders (i) before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to $1,495.00 (the "Liquidation Value") and, (ii) after the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of all shares of outstanding classes of preferred stock, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the shares of the Preferred Stock, Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation entitled to share in such distribution, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such securities as if they had been converted to Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation, winding up of the Corporation or Deemed Liquidation Event, provided, however, that if the aggregate amount which the holders of the outstanding Preferred Stock are entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5(a)(i) and (ii) exceeds an amount per share equal to three times (3x) the Liquidation Value (the "Maximum Participation Amount"), then each holder of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or Deemed Liquidation Event the greater of (1) the Maximum Participation Amount and (2) the amount such holder would have received if all shares of the Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or Deemed Liquidation Event. The amount per share which a holder of a share of the Preferred Stock is entitled to receive under Section 5(a) is hereinafter referred to as the "Liquidation Amount." For the avoidance of doubt, all holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock would receive the same form of consideration. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or Deemed Liquidation Event, the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of the Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled under this Section 5(a), the holders of shares of the Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.

(b) Effecting a Deemed Liquidation Event. The Corporation shall not have the power to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event pursuant to a merger or consolidation unless the agreement or plan of merger or consolidation for such transaction (the "Merger Agreement") provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Section 5(a). In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in clause (b) of its definition, if the Corporation does not effect a dissolution of the Corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law within 90 days after such Deemed Liquidation Event, then (i) the Corporation shall send a written notice to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock no later than the 90th day after the Deemed Liquidation Event advising such holders of their right (and the requirements to be met to secure such right) pursuant to the terms of the following clause (ii) to require the redemption of such shares of Preferred Stock, and (ii) if the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock so request in a written instrument delivered to the Corporation not later than 120 days after such Deemed Liquidation Event, the Corporation shall initiate a voluntary dissolution and winding up of the Corporation in accordance with Section 5(a).

(c) Amount Deemed Paid or Distributed. The amount deemed paid or distributed to the holders of capital stock of the Corporation upon any such merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, exclusive license, other disposition or redemption shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities paid or distributed to such holders by the Corporation or the acquiring person, firm or other entity. The value of such property, rights or securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

(d) Allocation of Escrow and Contingent Consideration. In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event pursuant to a merger or consolidation, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation is payable only upon satisfaction of contingencies (the "Additional Consideration"), then (i) the portion of such consideration that is not Additional Consideration (such portion, the "Initial Consideration") shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Section 5(a) as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event and (ii) any Additional Consideration which becomes payable to the stockholders of the Corporation upon satisfaction of such contingencies shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Section 5(a) after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction. For the purposes of this Section 5(d), consideration placed into escrow or retained as holdback to be available for satisfaction of indemnification or similar obligations in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event shall be deemed to be Initial Consideration.

Section 6. Conversion.

a) Conversions at Option of Holder. Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Original Issue Date at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6(e)) determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price. Holders shall effect conversions by providing the Corporation with the form of optional conversion notice attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Optional Conversion”). Each Notice of Optional Conversion shall specify the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned prior to the conversion at issue, the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the conversion at issue and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the applicable Holder delivers by facsimile such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation (such date, the “Optional Conversion Date”). If no Optional Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Optional Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation is deemed delivered hereunder. The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required. Shares of Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock or redeemed in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and shall not be reissued.

b) Mandatory Conversion. If the closing price of the Common Stock, as listed or quoted on the Principal Market, is equal to or greater than $4.11 for at least 20 consecutive trading days on or after the first anniversary of the Original Issue Date, then the Corporation, at its option, may cause the Preferred Stock to be converted in whole, or in part, on a pro rata basis among the holders of the Preferred Stock, into shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6(e)) by sending a notice of mandatory conversion a form of which is attached hereto as Annex B (a “Notice of Mandatory Conversion”) to each Holder of Preferred Stock stating (i) that the condition for mandatory conversion pursuant to this Section 6(b) has been met, (ii) the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted, (iii) the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned prior to the mandatory conversion at issue, (iv) the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the mandatory conversion at issue, and (v) the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may be no earlier than five (5) Business Days and no later than twenty (20) Business Days following the date the Corporation delivers the Notice of Mandatory Conversion (the “Mandatory Conversion Date”).

c) Conversion Price. The conversion price for the Preferred Stock shall equal $1.37, subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Price”). The number of shares of Common Stock that each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible into is equal to the Stated Value divided by the Conversion Price.

d) Mechanics of Conversion

i. Mechanics of Conversion - Delivery of Shares. Not later than three (3) Business Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting Holder the Conversion Shares which, if converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the issuance or resale of the Conversion Shares underlying the Preferred Stock or Rule 144 is available for resale of such Conversion Shares without volume and manner of sale limitations, such certificate shall be issued free of all legends, provided that, in the case of legend-free issuance in reliance on Rule 144, the Holder provides a representation letter in the form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Corporation that such Conversion Shares may be issued without a restrictive legend. The Corporation shall use its best efforts to deliver any Conversion Shares required to be delivered by the Corporation under this Section 6 electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.

ii. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Preferred Stock), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 7) upon the conversion of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and payment of dividends hereunder. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if the Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall be registered for public resale in accordance with such Registration Statement (subject to such Holder’s compliance with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement).

iii. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

iv. Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares upon conversion of Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid. The Corporation shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion.

e) Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Preferred Stock, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below) after giving effect to such exercise, or immediately prior to giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Stated Value of Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of unexercised or unconverted portion of any other Common Stock Equivalents of the Corporation that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Warrants) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 6(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 6(e) applies, the determination of whether the Preferred Stock is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of how many shares of Preferred Stock are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether the shares of Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and how many shares of the Preferred Stock are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Corporation each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Corporation shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 6(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Corporation’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Corporation or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Corporation shall within two Business Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined by the Holder after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including the Preferred Stock, by such Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” initially shall be such percent of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock held by the Holder, as set forth next to the name of each Buyer (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) on Schedule I of the Purchase Agreement. A Holder, upon notice to the Corporation, may decrease or thereafter increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provided in this Section 6(e) applicable to such Holder’s Preferred Stock, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event may exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Preferred Stock held by such Holder and this Section 6(e) shall continue to apply. Any such change in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61^st day after such notice is delivered to the Corporation and shall only apply to such Holder and no other Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of Preferred Stock.

Section 7. Certain Adjustments.

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time while this Preferred Stock is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any other Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation upon conversion of, or payment of a dividend on, this Preferred Stock), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

b) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Preferred Stock is outstanding, if the Corporation declares or makes any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Preferred Stock, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete Conversion of this Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on Conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(c) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7(b) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any options, convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property of the Company pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights, provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) issued and outstanding.

e) Notice to the Holders.

i. Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Corporation shall promptly deliver to each Holder by facsimile or e-mail a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the Corporation shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Corporation shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Corporation shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Corporation shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Corporation shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, then, in each case, the Corporation shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to each Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Corporation, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Corporation or any of the Subsidiaries, the Corporation shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to convert the Stated Value of this Preferred Stock (or any part hereof) during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

Section 8. Miscellaneous.

a) Notices.

Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of the Purchase Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Delaware Courts, or such Delaware Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.

WINDTREE THERAPEUTICS, INC.

SERIES A-1 WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

Series A-1 Warrant No.:

Number of Shares of Common Stock:

Date of Issuance: February 15, 2017 (“Issuance Date”)

Windtree Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, , the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Series A-1 Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Series A-1 Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times from the date that is six (6) months after the Issuance Date (the “Exercisability Date”), but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), ( ) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15.

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a)

Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Exercisability Date, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant to the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agent” and “Transfer Agent”) and (ii) if applicable, delivery of this Warrant to the Warrant Agent for cancellation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Warrant Agent until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Warrant Agent for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Exercise Notice is delivered to the Warrant Agent. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice with respect to a partial Exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Notice shall indicate if the Holder has elected a Cashless Exercise (as defined below) pursuant to Section 1(d) of this Warrant. Within three (3) Business Days following the Exercise, Holder shall deliver payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, unless such Holder has elected a Cashless Exercise pursuant to Section 1(d). On or before the third (3rd) Business Day following the date on which the Warrant has been duly Exercised (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company or the Warrant Agent shall (X) provided that the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder and provided the Holder causes its prime broker to initiate a Deposit Withdrawal At Custodian (“DWAC”) deposit, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or upon a cash Exercise at a time when a registration statement covering the issuance of Warrant Shares is not effective, issue and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such Exercise, provided that, unless such Holder has elected a Cashless Exercise pursuant to Section 1(d), the Company shall not be obligated to deliver shares of Common Stock hereunder unless the Company has received the Aggregate Exercise Price by the Share Delivery Date. Upon Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been Exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than five Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an affiliate thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

(b)

Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $1.37 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(c)

Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder within three (3) Business Days of Exercise in compliance with the terms of this Section 1, a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled, as applicable, upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant, then (i) the Holder shall be entitled, but not required, to rescind the previously submitted Notice of Exercise and the Company shall return all consideration paid by Holder for such shares upon such rescission and (ii) if on or after the end of such three (3) Business Day period the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s request, (1) pay cash to the Holder in the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased in the Buy-In, exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company has failed to deliver in connection with the exercise, by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to the Buy-In was executed; and (2) at the option of the Holder, either (xx) deliver to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with the Exercise Notice and its delivery obligations hereunder, or (yy) provided the conditions for cashless exercise set forth in Section 1(d) are satisfied, notify the Company that the Warrant should be exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)), or (zz) reinstate that portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares that the Company failed to deliver (prior to receipt by the Holder of the Exercise Shares). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to make any cash payments to the Holder in lieu of issuance of the Warrant Shares.

(d)

Cashless Exercise. In the event that a registration statement covering the issuance of Warrant Shares is not effective, the Holder may, at its option, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Net Number

(A x B) – (A x C)

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

A =		the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

B =		the arithmetic average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

C =		the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

The Company shall notify the Holder at any time prior to the Expiration Date that a registration statement covering the issuance of Warrant Shares is not effective. For sake of clarity, in the event that neither a registration statement nor an exemption from registration is available, there is no circumstance that requires the Company to effect a net cash settlement of the Warrant.

(e)

Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed in accordance with the delivery obligations set forth in this Warrant.

(f)

Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect any exercise of the Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of the Warrant, to the extent that, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below) after giving effect to such exercise, or immediately prior to giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of unexercised or unconverted portion of any other Common Stock Equivalents of the Company that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Warrants) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1(f) applies, the determination of whether the Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise (or partial exercise) shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether the Warrant may be exercised (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise (or partial exercise), in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Exercise that such Notice of Exercise has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 1(f), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Business Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined by the Holder after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Warrant, by such Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” initially shall be such percent of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant held by the applicable Holder, as set forth next to the name of each Buyer (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) on Schedule I of the Purchase Agreement. A Holder, upon notice to the Company, may decrease or thereafter increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provided in this Section 1(f) applicable to such Holder’s Warrant, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event may exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant held by such Holder and this Section 1(f) shall continue to apply. Any such change in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and shall only apply to such Holder and no other Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of the Warrant.

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

(a)

Adjustment upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, scheme, arrangement or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(b)

Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of Section 2(a) but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features to the holders of the Company’s equity securities), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares and provide that the record date for stockholders entitled to participate in such event shall be the effective date for such adjustment so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(b) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction), then, in each such case, the Holder, as the holder of this Warrant, shall be entitled to receive such dividends paid and distributions of any kind made to the holders of Common Stock of the Company to the same extent as if the Holder had Exercised this Warrant into Common Stock (without regard to any limitations on exercise herein or elsewhere and without regard to whether or not a sufficient number of shares are authorized and reserved to effect any such exercise and issuance) and had held such shares of Common Stock on the record date for such dividends and distributions. Payments under the preceding sentence shall be made concurrently with the dividend or distribution to the holders of Common Stock, except that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such distributions would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to such distribution to such extent, and such distribution to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as the distribution to such extent thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

(a)

Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property of the Company pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights, provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(b)

Fundamental Transactions. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, any Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to any Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, any Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights), if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant but, in any event, prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall not enter into or be a party to a Fundamental Transaction unless provision is made with respect to the Holder’s right under this Section 4(b) in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant. The Holder may waive its rights under this Section 4(b) with respect to any particular Fundamental Transaction.

5. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) shall, so long as this Warrant is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

7. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

(a)

Registration of Warrant. The Company or its Transfer Agent shall register this Warrant, upon the records to be maintained by the Company or its Transfer Agent for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.

(f) No Governmental Review.

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

The Company represents and warrants to each Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date applicable to each Buyer (unless as of a specified date therein) that:

(a) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and its "Subsidiaries" (which for purposes of this Agreement means any entity (i) in which the Company, directly or indirectly, owns capital stock or holds an equity or similar interest and (ii) which has operations and material assets) are corporations duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are incorporated, and have the requisite corporate power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted. Each of the Company and 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 have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no Subsidiaries other than its presently inactive subsidiary, Discovery Laboratories, Inc., formerly known as Acute Therapeutics, Inc. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company” in this Agreement include Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. and its Subsidiary, Discovery Laboratories, Inc. As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that changes relating to (i) the economy in general, (ii) the Company’s industry in general, (iii) the Company’s working capital and liquidity or (iv) the listing of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market ("NASDAQ") shall not in itself be deemed to arise to a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms thereof. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Preferred Shares and the Warrants and the reservation for issuance and the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or the exercise of the Warrants, as applicable, have been duly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and no further consent or authorization is required by the Company, its Board 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 rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity, including as to limitations on the enforcement of the remedy of specific performance and other equitable remedies (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' and contracting parties’ rights and remedies.

(c) Issuance of Securities. The Preferred Shares and the Warrants are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof and receipt by the Company of the Purchase Price therefor, shall be validly issued and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than arising under federal or state securities or "blue sky" laws and regulations) with respect to the issue thereof and the Preferred Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable. As of the Closing Date, the Company shall have duly authorized and reserved for issuance a number of shares of Common Stock which equals the number of Conversion Shares plus Warrant Shares. The Company shall, so long as any of the Preferred Shares or Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued capital stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Preferred Shares and the exercise of the Warrants, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants (subject to reduction from time to time for Common Stock issued upon conversion of Preferred Shares or exercise of the Warrants). A form of an instruction letter to the Company's Common Stock transfer agent instructing the transfer agent to reserve 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants is attached hereto as Exhibit D. Upon conversion of the Preferred Shares in accordance with the Certificate of Designation, or upon exercise in accordance with the Warrants, the Conversion Shares and/or the Warrant Shares, as applicable, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof (other than arising under federal or state securities or "blue sky" laws and regulations), with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock. Subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Buyer contained in Section 2 of this Agreement, issuance by the Company of the Securities contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.

(d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Preferred Shares and Warrants and reservation for issuance and issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") or Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") of the Company or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of the securities exchange or securities quotation service where the Common Stock is principally listed or quoted for trading (the "Principal Market")) applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, except in the case of clauses (i) through (iii), above, for such matters which, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company has offered securities for sale only to "accredited investors" within the meaning of Rule 501 under the 1933 Act. None of the Company, its affiliates and any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings, for purposes of the 1933 Act or the requirements of the Principal Market.

(c) Reporting Status. Until the date which is the later of the date on which (i) the Investor (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) shall have sold all the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares and the Preferred Shares and Warrants are no longer outstanding or (ii) the Company is no longer obligated under the Registration Rights Agreement to maintain the registration statement filed thereunder (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.

(d) Financial Information. At an Investor's written request, the Company agrees to send the following to any requesting Investor during the Reporting Period, within two (2) Business Days after such written request, unless it is filed with the SEC and available to the public through the SEC's EDGAR system: (i) a copy of its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, any Current Reports on Form 8-K and any registration statements (other than on Form S-8) or amendments filed pursuant to the 1933 Act, and (ii) copies of any notices and other information made available or given to the stockholders of the Company generally. As used herein, "Business Day" means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or other day on which the Primary Market or commercial banks in The City of New York are authorized or required by law to remain closed.

(e) Listing. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Common Stock's listing on NASDAQ. If after using commercially reasonable efforts the Company is unable to maintain such listing on NASDAQ, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that the Common Stock is quoted for trading on the over-the-counter market.

(f) Disclosure of Transactions and Other Material Information. The Company shall, on or before 8:30 a.m., New York City Time, no later than the first Business Day after the first Closing Date, issue a press release (the "Press Release") disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall provide the Buyer an advance copy of the Press Release and agrees to consider comments that the Buyer may provide but shall nevertheless be entitled to make such disclosure as it deems appropriate to meet its disclosure obligations under the 1934 Act. On or before 8:30 a.m., New York City Time, no later than the third Business Day following the first Closing Date, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the 1934 Act (the "8-K Filing"). From and after the issuance of the Press Release, the Company shall ensure that the Buyer shall not be in possession of any material, nonpublic information received from the Company or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents, that is not disclosed in the Press Release. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide the Buyer with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company from and after the filing of the Press Release without the express written consent of the Buyer pursuant to a Confidentiality and Nondisclosure Agreement.

(g) Conduct of Business. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct its business to avoid violations of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except where such violations would not, either individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(h) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents (the "Required Minimum"). If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the Required Minimum (minus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), then the Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s certificate or articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time (minus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 120th day after such date; provided that the Company will not be required at any time to authorize a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued after such time pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

5. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

(a) Transfer Restrictions. If (i) all or any Preferred Shares are converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the issuance or resale of the Conversion Shares underlying the Preferred Shares or Rule 144 is available for resale of such Conversion Shares underlying the Preferred Shares without volume or manner of sale restrictions, the Conversion Shares underlying the Preferred Shares issued pursuant to any such conversion shall be issued free of all legends, provided that, in the case of legend-free issuance in reliance on Rule 144, the Holder provides a representation letter in the form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company that such Conversion Shares may be issued without a restrictive legend, and (ii) all or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares or if the Warrant is exercised via cashless exercise and the applicable non-affiliate holding period under Rule 144 has been met, the Warrant Shares issued pursuant to any such exercise shall be issued free of all legends, provided that, in the case of legend-free issuance in reliance on Rule 144, the Holder provides a representation letter in the form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company that such Warrant Shares may be issued without a restrictive legend.

(b) Breach. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 5 will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

6. CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL.

The obligation of the Company hereunder to issue and sell the Units to a Buyer at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction by such Buyer, at or before the first Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for the Company's sole benefit and may be waived by the Company at any time in its sole discretion by providing such Buyer with prior written notice thereof:

(c) The representations and warranties of such Buyer shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date when made and as of the Closing Date applicable to such Buyer as though made at that time (except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date), and such Buyer shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by such Buyer at or prior to the Closing Date applicable to such Buyer.

Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k) Indemnification. In consideration of the Buyer's execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company's other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer, any affiliate of Buyer and each of their respective partners, members, officers, directors, employees and investors and any of the foregoing Persons' accounting and legal representatives retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated thereby, or (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any certificate, instrument or document contemplated thereby.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(l) Participation in Future Financing.

(i) During the period ending on the first anniversary of this Agreement, upon any issuance by the Company of Common Stock, Common Stock equivalents, or a combination thereof for cash consideration in a bona fide capital raising transaction (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Buyer shall have the right to participate in the Subsequent Financing to maintain the same Beneficial Ownership Percentage (as defined below) immediately after the Subsequent Financing that such Buyer had immediately prior to the Subsequent Financing. This participation right entitles the Buyer to participate in the Subsequent Financing on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to structure such Subsequent Financing to accommodate investments from Buyers who may wish to remain within the Beneficial Ownership Limitation as defined in the Preferred Stock Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations and the Warrants (i.e., by offering common stock equivalents to Buyers that would not cause such Buyers to exceed their Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

(ii) At least six (6) trading days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer a written notice of its intention to effect the Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask each Buyer if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Buyer, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) trading day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Buyer. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.

(iii) Any Buyer desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) trading day after all Buyers have received the Pre-Notice that such Buyer is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Buyer’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Buyer has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from a Buyer as of such fifth (5th) trading day, such Buyer shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate. At any time on or after 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) trading day after all of the Buyers have received the Pre-Notice, the Company may effect the Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Person(s) set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

(iv) To the extent one or more Buyers decline all or part of their participation right under this Section 9(l), then the Company shall offer the securities purchasable under such declined participation right (the "Refused Securities"), to each Buyer that elected to participate in the Subsequent Financing to the maximum amount originally allocated to such Buyer (each such Buyer, referred to as an "Eligible Buyer" and such offer of the Refused Securities, referred to as the "Subsequent Financing Re-allocation"). Each Eligible Buyer shall be entitled to participate in the Subsequent Financing Re-allocation on a pro rata basis based on such Eligible Buyer’s participation (expressed as a percent) in the original offering provided under this Agreement. The Company shall effect the Subsequent Financing Re-allocation, if any, by providing a notice (the "Re-allocation Notice") to each Eligible Buyer not later than one (1) trading day prior to closing of the Subsequent Financing, and such notice shall set forth the number of Refused Securities offered to such Eligible Buyer. Any Eligible Buyer desiring to purchase any Refused Securities offered to them under the Subsequent Financing Re-allocation must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 10:00 a.m. on next trading day after the Company provides the Re-allocation Notice to the Eligible Buyers. If the Company does not receive a written notice from an Eligible Buyer by such time, such Eligible Buyer shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate in the Subsequent Financing Re-allocation.

(v) For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9(l) shall not apply in respect of (1) any transactions pursuant to that certain At-The-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement dated as of February 11, 2013, as amended from time to time, between the Company and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, (2) the issuance of shares of Common Stock, options to acquire shares of Common Stock or other awards granted pursuant to the Company’s benefit plans, as such plans may be amended, (3) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any such options or other awards, (4) the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to any options, warrants or convertible instrument outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, or the issuance in a Subsequent Financing of any shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock pursuant to a stock purchase agreement in an amount of up to $2 million, (5) the issuance of up to 1 million shares of Common Stock to consultants or other service providers of the Company in consideration for services rendered, or (6) the issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents, including convertible instruments (and issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of such convertible instrument) in connection with strategic alliances involving the Company and other entities, including, without limitation, joint venture, co-marketing, co-development or other collaboration arrangements.

(vi) For the purposes of this Section 9(l), Beneficial Ownership Percentage of each Buyer shall be calculated on a partially diluted basis, without regard to any beneficial ownership limitation provisions applicable to the Buyer, by dividing the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock held by such Buyer, plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of convertible preferred stock of the Company held by such Buyer, and plus (3) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants held by such Buyer with respect to the exercise price of which has been fully paid, by the sum of (A) the number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of convertible preferred stock of the Company, plus (C) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants the exercise price of which has been fully paid.

(m) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

(n) Remedies. The Buyer shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.

Correspondence re: potential Nasdaq delisting

On May 19, 2016, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000. In the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of ($4,977,000), which is below the minimum stockholders’ equity required for continued listing pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). Further, as of May 19, 2016, the Company had not met the alternative compliance standards under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b) of (i) a market value of listed securities of at least $35,000,000, or (ii) net income of $500,000 from continuing operations.

The Company submitted its plan to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule on July 5, 2016 and, on July 12, 2016, the Staff notified the Company that it has determined to grant the Company an extension until November 15, 2016 to evidence compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Rule. Under the terms of the extension, the Company was required to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Rule no later than November 15, 2016. The Company failed to regain compliance on o before November 15, 2016

On November 16, 2016, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying the Company that it had not met the terms of the extension and as a result, the Company’s common stock was subject to delisting from Nasdaq. The Company requested a hearing before a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series, which automatically stayed the delisting of the Company’s common stock pending the issuance of the Panel’s decision.

The Company submitted to Nasdaq its plan to regain compliance and various other documents and appeared before the Panel on January 12, 2017.

On January 18, 2017, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that the Panel had determined to allow the Company’s listing on Nasdaq to continue until May 15, 2017. During the extension, the Company is required to provide the Panel interim reports of its progress toward regaining compliance. The Panel will evaluate each of the Company’s reports and may delist the Company if it fails to demonstrate a reasonable likelihood of regaining compliance on or before May 15, 2017. Should the Company fail to demonstrate full compliance with the minimum $2.5 million stockholders’ equity requirement by May 15, 2017, the Panel will issue a final delist determination and the Company will be suspended from trading on Nasdaq

The Company shall have sole discretion in choosing whether to file the Registration Statement on Form S-1 or S-3. The Registration Statement shall contain the "Selling Stockholder" and "Plan of Distribution" sections, an initial draft of which shall be prepared by the Company, and provided to the Investors for review and comment at least three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC promptly after the Company is notified in writing by the SEC that it has no comments (or no further comments) on the Registration Statement, but in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline. By 9:30 am on the Business Day following the Effective Date, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424 under the 1933 Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement.

b. Exclusivity of Registrable Securities. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement without the prior written consent of the Required Holders.

c. Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event that at any time the number of shares registered under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement, the Company shall within 12 calendar months from the effective date of such Registration Statement, file a new Registration Statement so as to cover the balance of the Registrable Securities. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

d. Registration and Related Defaults. Should an Event (as defined below) occur, then upon the occurrence of such Event, and on every monthly anniversary thereof until the applicable Event is cured, as partial relief for the damages suffered therefrom by the Buyer (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available under this Agreement, at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to the Buyer an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.0% (the “Percentage”) of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Buyer for the Securities. The payments to which the Buyer shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(e) are referred to herein as "Event Payments." In the event the Company fails to make Event Payments in a timely manner, such Event Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.0% per month until paid in full. In no event shall the aggregate Event Payments required to be paid hereunder exceed 3% of the aggregate purchase price payable for the Registrable Securities. For such purposes, each of the following shall constitute an “Event:”

(i) the Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline; or

(ii) the Company fails to have available a sufficient number of authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of Common Stock available to issue Conversion Shares upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares or the Warrant Shares upon any exercise of the Warrant

3. Related Obligations.

At such time as the Company is obligated to file a Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a), 2(c) or 2(d), the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a. The Company shall submit to the SEC, within two (2) Business Days after the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the SEC or that the staff has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than two (2) Business Days after the submission of such request. The Company shall keep each Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Investors that are not affiliated with the Company may sell all of their Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without current public information pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the 1933 Act (assuming Cashless Exercise of the Warrants) or (ii) the date on which the Investors shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the "Registration Period"). The Company shall ensure that each Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading.

b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement.

c. The Company shall permit the Investor to review and comment upon the “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution” sections of the Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto as proposed to be filed; (i) in the case of a Registration Statement, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to its filing with the SEC and (ii) in the case of any amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement (except for reports or other filings made pursuant to the 1934 Act), within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the SEC; provided that, the failure of any Investor or its counsel to respond to such proposed documents within two business days after receipt thereof shall be deemed approval of same; and provided, further, that no such review and comment shall inhibit the Company from filing the Registration Statement or otherwise from complying with its obligations under this Agreement or under the 1933 Act or 1934 Act. The Company shall furnish to the Buyer, without charge, upon the Buyer’s request (i) electronic copies of any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives relating to the “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution” sections of the Registration Statement and (ii) electronic copies of the Registration Statement, any amendment(s) thereto, and prospectuses as may be required by the 1933 Act and such other documents as the Buyer may reasonably request.

d. The Company shall furnish to each Investor, without charge and upon such Investor’s request, such electronic copies of the Registration Statement, any amendment(s) thereto, and prospectuses as may be required by the 1933 Act and such other documents as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor.

e. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by Investors of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

f. The Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic information), and, subject to Section 3(n), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission. The Company shall also promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each Investor by facsimile or by electronic mail on the same day of such effectiveness or by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.

g. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

h. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement. If the Company becomes legally compelled (by subpoena, civil or criminal investigative demand or similar process) to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise constrained by this Agreement, the Company shall give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor's expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

i. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts either to (i) cause all of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement on the over-the-counter market, provided however, that the Company has no obligation under this Section (i) following the occurrence of (A) if the Company is involved in a "Rule 13e-3 transaction" as defined in Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act, or (B) a merger or consolidation of the Company or a sale of more than one-half of the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(i).

j. The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (bearing any applicable restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may request.

k. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

l. If requested by an Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as an Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) as soon as practicable make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by an Investor holding any Registrable Securities.

m. Within two (2) Business Days after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.

n. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Effective Date, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a "Grace Period"); provided, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investors in writing of the existence of material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each notice the Company will not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Investors) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify the Investors in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided further, that no Grace Period shall exceed twenty (20) consecutive days or an aggregate of sixty (60) days during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period (an "Allowable Grace Period"). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 3(g) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the applicable Registration Statement (unless an exemption from such prospectus delivery requirement exists), prior to the Investor's receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

4. Obligations of the Investors.

a. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing by sending a Selling Stockholder Questionnaire, which shall promptly be completed by each Investor such that it shall contain the information the Company requires from each such Investor who holds Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company an accurate, completed Selling Stockholder Questionnaire regarding itself.

b. Each Investor, by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor's election to exclude all of such Investor's Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

c. Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of 3(f), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) or the first sentence of 3(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor's receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of 3(f) and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

d. Each Investor covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act as applicable to it or an exemption therefrom in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

5. Expenses of Registration.

All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be paid by the Company.

6. Indemnification.

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys' fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, "Claims") incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto ("Indemnified Damages"), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered ("Blue Sky Filing"), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or (iv) any violation of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being, collectively, "Violations"). Subject to Section 6(c), the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by any Indemnified Person for or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d) and (ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9.

b. In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an "Indemnified Party"), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(c), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9.

c. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. In the case of an Indemnified Person, legal counsel referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be selected by the Investors holding at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

d. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

e. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7. Contribution.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities, which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) in connection with such sale, shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

8. Reports Under the 1934 Act.

With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to:

a. make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

c. furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

9. Assignment of Registration Rights.

The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by the Investors to any transferee of all or any portion of such Investor's Registrable Securities if: (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

10. Amendment of Registration Rights.

The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Holders of a majority or more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, provided that, if any amendment, modification or waiver disproportionately and adversely impacts a Holder (or group of Holders), the consent of such disproportionately impacted Holder (or group of Holders) shall be required. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

11. Miscellaneous.

a. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the record owner of such Registrable Securities.

b. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

Exhibit 99.1

Windtree Therapeutics Completes $10.5 Million Private Offering

Company Now Adequately Funded Through AEROSURF^®Phase 2b Data in Mid-2017

WARRINGTON, PA - February 15, 2017 - Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: WINT), a biotechnology company focused on developing aerosolized KL^₄ surfactant therapies for respiratory diseases, today announced that it has completed a $10.5 million private placement of convertible preferred stock units and now expects that it has sufficient capital to fund its operations through the AEROSURF^® phase 2b clinical trial data release in mid-2017.

Windtree has received gross proceeds of approximately $10.5 million (including approximately $1.6 million in non-cash consideration in the form of a reduction in future payments of current development services expenses) from the sale of 7,049 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Units at a purchase price per unit of $1,495. Each unit consists of one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which is convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company's common stock, and 1,000 Series A-1 seven-year warrants to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.37.

In connection with the closing, Windtree has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the buyers of the units to provide for registration of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of warrants. The Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 50 calendar days following the closing date of the private placement, and to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within periods designated in the Registration Rights Agreement.

Both existing and new investors participated in this financing. In addition, certain officers and directors of the Company participated in the private placement and purchased an aggregate of 67 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Units.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

The securities sold in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. The securities were offered only to accredited investors.

Terms of the private placement can be found in a Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
