Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Effective October 27, 2017, Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with LPH Investments Limited, a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“LPH”). LPH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lee’s Pharmaceutical Holdings Limited, a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Lee’s”). Under the SPA, LPH invested $10,000,000 (the "Investment") in the Company and acquired from the Company 46,232,085 shares of the Company's common stock (the “Shares”), at a price of $0.2163 per share, which represents a 15% premium over the average of the daily volume-weighted average price per share (VWAP) over the 10-day trading period ending on and including the date of the SPA. Following the transactions described herein, Lee's beneficially owned 73% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the "Common Stock"). The Investment includes cancellation of $3,900,000 in outstanding loans that the Company borrowed from Lee’s Pharmaceutical (HK) Ltd., a Hong Kong company organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong (“Lee's (HK)”) under that certain Loan Agreement, effective August 14, 2017, between the Company and Lee's (HK). Pursuant to the SPA, the Company granted LPH the right to appoint up to two individuals to serve on the Company's Board of Directors, and LPH may designate such individuals on or prior to the 30th day following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the SPA (the "Closing"). In addition, the SPA also amends the executive employment agreement of each of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer (Craig Fraser), Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (John A. Tattory) and Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer (Steven G. Simonson, M.D.), such that in lieu of the Annual Bonuses (as defined in each executive's employment agreement) that would have been payable to the executives during the 24 month period following the Closing, the executives are entitled to an award of equity under the Company’s 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended, having a value when issued equal to the combined total value of the 2017 and 2018 Target Bonus Amounts (as defined in each executive's employment agreement) and vesting in two equal installments on March 15, 2018 and March 15, 2019. Under the terms of the SPA, the Company also granted to LPH a preemptive right to purchase in future offerings of equity securities up to that number of shares of the Company's equity securities needed to maintain LPH's percentage of beneficial ownership of the Company's outstanding voting stock immediately prior to each such offering, subject to certain limitations and exclusions.

Contemporaneously with the execution of the SPA, the Company and LPH entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the Shares under the SPA, which rights are limited to registration of up to 25% of the Shares during the initial 18-month period following the closing of the SPA. The Company issued the Shares to LPH pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D and Regulation S under, and Section 4(a)(2) of, the Securities Act of 1933.

Contemporaneously with the execution of the SPA, the Company and affiliates of Deerfield Management Company, L.P. (“Deerfield”) entered into an Exchange and Termination Agreement (the "Exchange and Termination Agreement"). Under the Exchange and Termination Agreement, (i) promissory notes evidencing an aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 owed to Deerfield under that certain Facility Agreement dated as of February 13, 2013 (the "Facility Agreement"), as amended from time to time, and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $39.34 per share held by Deerfield (the “Deerfield Warrants”) were cancelled in consideration for (i) a cash payment in the aggregate amount of $2,500,000, (ii) an aggregate of 1,422,250 shares of Common Stock and (iii) the right to receive certain milestone payments ("Milestone Payments") based on achievement of specified development and commercial milestones related to the Company's AEROSURF® development program, which, if achieved, could potentially total up to $15,000,000. Contemporaneously with the execution of the Exchange and Termination Agreement, the Company and Deerfield entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued to Deerfield under the Exchange and Termination Agreement. The Company issued the shares of Common Stock to Deerfield pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under, and Section 4(a)(2) of, the Securities Act of 1933.

On November 1, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), the Company, Lee's and Deerfield consummated the transactions contemplated by the SPA and the Exchange and Termination Agreement. Effective upon the Closing Date, (i) the Facility Agreement, including the outstanding promissory notes thereunder, and (ii) that certain Security Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2013, among Deerfield and the Company were cancelled and terminated.

The foregoing descriptions of the SPA, the Exchange and Termination Agreement, and the registration rights agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the agreements themselves. A copy of the SPA, the Exchange and Termination Agreement and the registration rights agreements are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Such agreements are being filed to provide investors and the Company’s stockholders with information regarding the terms thereof and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. Pursuant to such agreements, each of the parties thereto 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.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

Reference is made to the SPA described in Item 1.01. To facilitate consummation of the SPA, effective upon the Closing, Battelle Memorial Institute, holder of an aggregate of 1,095 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company ("Preferred Shares"), executed a waiver wherein Battelle waived its right to the Liquid Preference (as defined in the Designation Of Preferences, Rights And Limitations for the Preferred Shares) with respect to their Preferred Shares. In addition, the Company and Battelle entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding outlining the key terms for a potential restructuring of the amounts due to Battelle under development and collaboration agreements between the Company and Battelle.

On November 1, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the SPA with LPH, and the Exchange and Termination Agreement with Deerfield. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.4.

During the conference call, the Company plans to review its key objectives for 2018, which include, among other things (i) completing development and validation of an improved next generation aerosol delivery system (“NextGen ADS”) based on the same aerosolization technology used in the Company’s phase 2 clinical program, with significantly improved ergonomics, interface, controls, dose monitoring and a new modular design. Importantly, changes to filter size and specifications, and certain other design enhancements are expected to mitigate the risks of clogging and related treatment interruptions experienced during the phase 2b clinical trial; and (ii) a confirmatory bridging clinical study to gain experience with the NextGen ADS, to confirm whether development objectives have been met, and to generate additional higher dose treatment data to augment the higher dose data obtained in the phase 2b clinical trial, which was adversely affected by treatment interruptions due to device clogging.

In addition, the Company reports that, as of November 1, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.4 million. Before any additional financings, the Company anticipates that it will have sufficient cash available to fund its operations and support the continued development of AEROSURF into January 2018, while it seeks to secure the additional capital required to satisfy its existing obligations and support its development programs and continuing operations through 2018.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the "Company" in this Agreement include Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. and its Subsidiary, Discovery Laboratories, Inc.

The Company is not in violation of any term of or in default under any material contract, agreement, mortgage, indebtedness, indenture, instrument, judgment, decree or order or any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, except for possible violations, defaults, terminations or amendments that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.02. Record Keeping; Reporting; Audit and Other Information Rights.

(a) Records. Borrower shall keep and maintain until the later of (i) ten (10) years after the Agreement Date and (ii) the payment of each of the Milestone Payments, accounts and records of all data reasonably required to verify (x) any information required to be provided to Lenders under this Agreement and (y) (A) the gross amounts invoiced or otherwise sold in respect of the Product and (B) the calculation of cumulative Net Sales.

(b) Reporting of Milestone Events. Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days of (i) the occurrence of any of the Milestone Events or (ii) in the case of Milestone Events relating to Net Sales thresholds, the good faith determination by Borrower of the achievement of such threshold within thirty (30) days following the end of the calendar quarter in which such Milestone Event shall occur, but in no event later than the payment of the Milestone Payment associated with such Milestone Event, notify Lenders of each occurrence of a Milestone Event (and, upon any Lender’s reasonable request, shall promptly provide material documents and information related to such Milestone Event including, in the case of Net Sales, as to the calculation thereof, with respect to Bundled Products or otherwise), and shall make public disclosure thereof (in the form of a widely disseminated press release or filing of a Form 8-K with the SEC) on or prior to the notification thereof to Lenders.

(c) Audit Rights. From the Agreement Date until the termination of this Agreement, upon prior written notice to Borrower, Lenders shall have the right, no more than once in any twelve (12) month period, to audit, through an independent certified public accountant selected by Lenders and reasonably acceptable to Borrower, those financial accounts and records of Borrower and any Affiliate of Borrower (excluding Lee’s or other licensee) relating to Net Sales of the Product as may be reasonably necessary to verify Borrower’s and any Affiliates’ of Borrower’s compliance with Section 2.02(b) of this Agreement (including any accounts or records of Borrower and any Affiliate of Borrower relating to sales of the Product by any Distributors); provided, however, that Lenders may conduct an additional “for cause” audit upon written notice to Borrower if the final report of the independent certified public accountant on the prior audit shows that, in respect of any audit then being reviewed, a Milestone Payment was due and owning by Borrower, but was not timely paid within fifteen (15) or thirty (30) days of the due date therefor as herein provided. Such audits must occur during normal business hours, shall be concluded as expeditiously as possible under the circumstances and shall be conducted in a manner so as not to disrupt the ongoing operations of Borrower. Lenders shall be solely responsible for all the expenses of any such audit, unless the independent certified public accountant’s report shows, in respect of any period then being reviewed, that a Milestone Payment was due and owing by Borrower, but was not timely paid within fifteen (15) or thirty (30) days of the due date therefor as herein provided, in which case Borrower shall be responsible for the reasonable expenses incurred by Lenders for the independent certified public accountant’s services. At least ten (10) Business Days prior to providing Lenders with the final audit report, the independent certified public accountant shall provide Borrower with a preliminary report, in order to ensure Borrower has provided, and the independent certified public accountant has received and properly considered, all necessary information to make its conclusion in the final audit report. A copy of the independent certified public accountant’s final report shall be provided to the Lenders and Borrower simultaneously. If the final report shows that Borrower failed to make a Milestone Payment, then Borrower will pay the amount of such Milestone Payment to Lenders within five (5) days after receipt of the audit report (without limiting Lender’s rights and remedies with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely make such Milestone Payment). All accounting hereunder, including all determinations of Net Sales (including all adjustments and deductions permitted to be made hereunder in calculating the same), and all calculations underlying such determinations, shall be made in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied by Borrower in the preparation of its financial statements at the time of such payment.

In addition to Borrower’s reporting requirements under Section 6.02(b) and Lender’s audit rights under Section 6.02(c), Borrower shall provide to each Lender access to view (through Borrower’s virtual document review facility (VDR) any material documents related to, and any other documentation, records and information related to the Development or commercialization of the Product, as may be reasonably requested by such Lender, provided that such Lender enters into a confidentiality agreement in customary form with the Company (a “Confidentiality Agreement”) in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be obligated to provide any materials that constitute trade secrets of Borrower or that otherwise are the subject of a third party confidentiality agreement that prohibits such disclosure. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that it will not create or permit the creation of screen prints of any of Borrower’s confidential materials and will not share the contents thereof with any persons except on a need to know basis.

Section 6.03. Disclosure; Material Non-public Information. On or before 7:00 a.m., New York time, on the Business Day after the Closing Date, Borrower shall file one or more Current Reports on Form 8-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including the consummation thereof), attaching this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and disclosing any other presently material non-public information (if any) provided or made available to Lenders (or Lenders’ agents or representatives) on or prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “8-K Filing”). From and after the 8-K Filing, Borrower shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) provided or made available to Lenders (or Lenders’ agents or representatives) by Borrower or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or otherwise on or prior to the Agreement Date. In the event that Borrower believes that a notice or communication to any such Lender contains material non-public information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates, Borrower shall so indicate to such Lender and shall not effect delivery of such notice or communication unless such Lender expressly agrees in writing to make such matters subject to a Confidentiality Agreement or Borrower shall contemporaneously with delivery of such notice or communication publicly discloses such material non-public information (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the foregoing shall not affect Borrower’s filing and public disclosure obligations under Section 6.02(b), the first sentence of this Section 6.03 and Section 6.05). In the absence of any such indication, such Lender shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice or communication do not constitute material non-public information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates. In the event of a breach of the covenants set forth in this Section 6.03 by Borrower or any of its Affiliates, agents, advisors, attorneys or other representatives acting on Borrower’s behalf, in addition to, and without limiting, any other remedy provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Lender shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of material non-public information disclosed to such Lender in violation of this Section 6.03 without the prior approval of any of Borrower or any of its Affiliates, agents, advisors, attorneys or representatives; provided that, in the event of a breach of this Section 6.03 by Borrower, such Lender shall first provide Borrower with an opportunity to make immediate public disclosure of such information in lieu of such Lender making public disclosure of such information in accordance with this Section 6.03. No Lender shall have any liability to Borrower or any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, advisors, attorneys or other representatives for any public disclosure made in accordance with this Section 6.03. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, after giving effect to the 8-K Filing, Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Lender shall have (unless expressly agreed to by such Lender after the date hereof in a Confidentiality Agreement) any duty of trust or confidence with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any information regarding Borrower that such Lender has received from Borrower or any of its Affiliates, agents, advisors, attorneys or other representatives acting on Borrower’s behalf.

Section 6.04. Legends.

(a) Restrictive Legend. Each Lender understands that until such time as the resale of the Exchange Shares has been registered under the Securities Act as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or the Exchange Shares otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Exchange Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities):

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER SECTION 4(a)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[(a)](1) AND A HALF SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”

(b) Removal of Restrictive Legends. The certificates evidencing the Exchange Shares shall not contain any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above in Subsection 6.04(a)): (A) while a registration statement covering the resale of such Exchange Shares by the Lender is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of such Exchange Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Exchange Shares are eligible for sale under rule 144(b)(1) (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). Each Lender agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from the Exchange Shares in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence is predicated upon Borrower’s reliance that (i) such Lender will dispose of such Exchange Shares pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if such Exchange Shares are sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein. Borrower agrees that, following the Effective Date or at such time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions are otherwise met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 7.03, it will, no later than two (2) Trading Days following the delivery by any Lender to Borrower or the transfer agent for the Common Stock of any certificate representing Exchange Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered the Exchange Shares to such Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its DWAC system, free from all restrictive and other legends and stop transfer instructions.

During the period commencing on the Agreement Date and ending on the later of (a) the first (1^st) anniversary of the Closing Date and (b) the first date on which the Lenders collectively hold no more than ten percent (10%) of the Exchange Shares, but in no event later than the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, Borrower shall (a) timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, (b) not terminate the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or otherwise terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act, even if the securities laws would otherwise permit any such termination, and (c) take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the Common Shares to remain at all times quoted on the OTCQB Market or listed on a U.S. national securities exchange.

Section 6.06. Material Contracts.

Section 6.08. No Disposition of Rights. Borrower shall not encumber, sell, assign, transfer, license, sublicense, deliver, or otherwise dispose of all or any of Borrower’s or any Affiliate’s right, title, or interest in or to any Product Assets that are material to the manufacture, Development or commercialization of the Product if such disposition would prevent, or otherwise, materially impair or delay Borrower in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the achievement of any of the Milestone Events.

Section 6.09. IP Obligations. Borrower shall use (and shall cause the other Responsible Parties to use) commercially reasonable efforts to:

Section 8.06. Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) As part of the consideration and mutual promises being exchanged and given in connection with this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that all claims, controversies and disputes of any kind or nature arising under or relating in any way to the enforcement or interpretation of this Agreement or to the parties’ dealings, rights or obligations in connection herewith, including disputes relating to the negotiations for, inducements to enter into, or execution of, this Agreement, and disputes concerning the interpretation, enforceability, performance, breach, termination or validity of all or any portion of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its choice or conflicts of laws principles.

(b) The parties hereto agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the commercial division, New York State Supreme Court, or the federal courts, in each case sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan (and, in each case, the applicable state and federal appeals courts sitting in the City of New York or, if not available or applicable, the State of New York), which shall hear any dispute, claim or controversy arising in connection with or related to this Agreement, including the validity, breach, enforcement or termination hereof. With respect to any such disputes, claims or controversies, each of the parties hereby irrevocably:

(i) submits itself and its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action in any court or tribunal other than the aforesaid courts;

(ii) waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding (A) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named court for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 8.05, (B) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in any such court (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (C) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable law, any claim that (1) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (2) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (3) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by any such court; and

(iii) WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (II) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.05.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 8.05, a party may commence any action or proceeding in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

Section 8.07. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement and any amendment hereto may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. In the event that any signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof. No party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement or any amendment hereto or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

Section 8.08. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon the Person (other than the parties to this Agreement) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except as provided in Section 8.09.

Section 8.09. Specific Performance. The parties to this Agreement agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties to this Agreement would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case without the necessity of posting bond or other security or showing actual damages, and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 8.10. Indemnification. Borrower hereby agree to indemnify, defend, hold harmless and reimburse each Lender and its Affiliates, and their respective managers, directors, officers, employees, agents and its and their respective successors, heirs and assigns, from and against any losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and professional fees and other expenses of litigation) arising out of claims, suits, actions or demands, in each case brought by a Third Party, or settlements or judgments arising therefrom (including personal injury, products liability and intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claims) as a result or arising out of (i) any Responsible Party’s or its or agent’s or contractor’s development, promotion, marketing, handling, manufacture, packaging, labeling, storage, distribution, pricing, reimbursement, transport, use, sale or other disposition of the Product; (ii) any breach by Borrower of a representation or warranty of Borrower contained in this Agreement; (iii) any breach by Borrower of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Borrower contained in this Agreement; (iv) any Responsible Party’s failure to comply with Applicable Law in the performance of its obligations related to the Product; or (v) any negligence or willful misconduct by a Responsible Party or the directors, officers, employees or agents of any Responsible Party in the performance of its or their obligations related to the Product; provided, however, that Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify any Lender for any losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and professional fees and other expenses of litigation) which are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from Lenders’ willful misconduct, negligence or material breach of this Agreement or a Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 8.11. Effect of Headings. The section and subsection headings herein are for convenience only and not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

Section 8.12. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

Section 8.13. Further Assurances. Borrower and Lenders hereby agree, from time to time, as and when requested by another party, to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents, instruments and agreements, including secretary’s certificates, stock powers and transfer agent instructions, and to take or cause to be taken such further or other action, as such party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

Section 8.14. 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 rule of strict construction will be applied against any party.

Section 8.15. Interpretative Matters. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules, Appendices or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (b) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (c) the words “hereof,” “herein” and words of similar effect shall reference this Agreement in its entirety, and (d) the use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each party hereto has caused this Exchange and Termination Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first written above.

NOW, THEREFORE, In consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Buyer hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS.

(ii) At any time, and from time to time, after the expiration of the First Tranche Registration Period, but in any event not more than (ii) once in each 12-month period if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, or (ii) twice in each 12-month period if the Company is then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3,the Buyer may request the registration by the Company under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities outstanding that are not registered under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

If at any time the Company files with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its securities (other than debt securities or securities being registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans) (each, a “Piggy-back Registration Statement”), the Company shall include in such Piggy-back Registration Statement for the resale of (i) the number of Registrable Securities that, together with the total number of Registrable Securities covered under existing effective Registration Statements, shall not exceed 25% of the Registrable Securities, if such Piggy-back Registration Statement is filed on or prior to the last day of the First Tranche Registration Period, or (ii) all or a part of Registrable Securities, as determined by the Buyer in its sole discretion, if such Piggy-back Registration Statement is filed after the last day of the First Tranche Registration Period.

3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with the registration of the Registration Securities pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a. The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the SEC, as soon as practicable; provided that, with respect to any registration request made by the Buyer pursuant to Section 2(a), in no event later than 30 days following such registration request, a Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall cause such Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective no later than 90 days from the date of filing, and shall keep the Registration Statement current and effective, and available for the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Buyer pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at all times until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement (in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Buyer) may be immediately sold to the public without registration or restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof), and without compliance with any “current public information” requirement, pursuant to Rule 144 (or successor thereto) under the Securities Act (the “Registration Period”), which 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 not misleading (except that such provision shall not apply to any information provided by the Buyer or any transferee of the Buyer pursuant to Section 4(a)). The Registration Statement shall contain a plan of distribution approved by the Buyer.

b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement current and effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities 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 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.

c. The Company will immediately notify the Buyer by email or facsimile of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment. The Company will respond to any and all comments received from the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable, with a view towards causing such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable and shall file an acceleration request as soon as practicable, but no later than five (5) business days, following the resolution or clearance of all SEC comments or, if applicable, following notification by the SEC that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review. No later than the second business day after the Registration Statement becomes effective, if required, the Company will file with the SEC the final prospectus included therein pursuant to Rule 424 (or successor thereto) under the Securities Act.

d. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, in any jurisdiction where registration and/or qualification is required, the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Buyer shall reasonably request, (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(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify the Buyer of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and use its reasonable best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to the Buyer as the Buyer may reasonably request.

f. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Buyer who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.

g. The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by the Buyer (“Legal Counsel”) to review, at Buyer' own cost, such Registration Statement, and all amendments and supplements thereto, a reasonable period of time (but not less than five (5) business days) prior to their filing with the SEC and not file any documents in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects and will not request acceleration of such Registration Statement without prior notice to Legal Counsel. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Buyer 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 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 or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Buyer is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Buyer prior to making such disclosure, and allow the Buyer, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

h. Within two (2) business days after a Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company cause the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to Buyer) an appropriate instruction and, if required by the transfer agent, an opinion of such counsel in the form required by the transfer agent in order to issue the Registrable Securities free of restrictive legends.

i. At the reasonable request of the Buyer, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement.

j. The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Buyer of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE BUYER. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Buyer shall have the following obligations:

a. 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 the Buyer that the Buyer shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Buyer of the information the Company requires from the Buyer. Any such information 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 not misleading.

b. The Buyer agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless the Buyer has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

c. The Buyer agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or 3(f), the Buyer will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until the Buyer’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or 3(f) and, if so directed by the Company, the Buyer shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in the Buyer’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All reasonable expenses incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualification fees, printers and accounting fees, and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company (but not including fees and disbursements for counsel for any Buyer) shall be borne by the Company.

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

a. The Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Buyer and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, agents and each Person who controls the Buyer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, if any (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, “Claims”) to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (preliminary, final, free writing or otherwise), or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange 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 (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable 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 provision contained in this Section 7(a) shall not apply (i) to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation to the extent that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or behalf of any Indemnified Person for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (ii) to any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim 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 sale of the Registrable Securities by the Buyer.

b. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 7, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the opinion of counsel for the Buyer, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel (as well as local counsel) for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Buyer. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action, and shall not otherwise relieve the Company of any liability. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be or has been sought hereunder (whether or not any such Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Persons of a full release from all liability with respect to such Claim or which includes any admission as to fault or culpability on the part of any Indemnified Person.

c. The Buyer will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, or agents of the Company, if any (each, a “Company Indemnified Person”), against any Claims to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any Violation which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about the Buyer, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by the Buyer or on behalf of the Buyer for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(c) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, however, that a Buyer shall be liable under this Section 7(c) for only that amount of an Indemnity Claim as does not exceed the net amount of proceeds received by such Buyer as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

d. Promptly after receipt by a Company Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Company Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against a Buyer under this Section 7, deliver to such Buyer a written notice of the commencement thereof, and such Buyer shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent such Buyer so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to such Buyer and the Company Indemnified Person, as the case may be.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Company Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Buyer, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Company, the representation by such counsel of the Company Indemnified Person and the Buyer would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Company Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Buyer shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Company Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected in the reasonable judgment of the Company.

e. The indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable.

8. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by the Company or the Buyer is prohibited or limited by law, each of the Company and the Buyer agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 7 to the fullest extent permitted by law, based upon a comparative fault standard.

9. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT. With a view to making available to the Buyer the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Buyer to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, 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 Securities Act and the Exchange 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. so long as the Buyer owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, furnish to the Buyer (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act as required for applicable provisions of Rule 144, (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 Buyer to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

10. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by the Buyer to any transferee of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities if: (i) such Buyer 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, and (iii) 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. In the event that a Buyer transfers all or any portion of its Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section, the Company shall have at least ten (10) days to file any amendments or supplements necessary to keep a Registration Statement current and effective, and available for the resale of all of the Registrable Securities, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act.

11. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority in interest of then-outstanding Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11 shall be binding upon each of the Buyer and the Company.

12. MISCELLANEOUS.

a. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities (the “Registered Owner”) whenever such Person owns of record or beneficially through a “street name” holder 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 Registered Owner of such Registrable Securities.

b. Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms hereof shall be sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by facsimile or email and shall be effective five days after being placed in the mail, if mailed by regular United States mail, or upon receipt, if delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by facsimile or email, in each case addressed to a party.

B. To induce the Lenders and Deerfield PDI Financing II, L.P. to execute and deliver the Exchange and Termination Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights for the Exchange Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws.

If at any time prior to the date that is five business days following the date that Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2017 (the "Piggy-back Registration Period"), the Company files with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its securities (other than debt securities or securities being registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans), the Company shall include in such registration statement all of the Exchange Shares, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible, and in no event later than 90 days, after the date of filing thereof.

b. MANDATORY REGISTRATION. If the Company shall have failed to include all of the Exchange Shares in a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its securities pursuant to Section 2(a) above during the Piggy-back Registration Period, or shall have failed to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC no later than 90 days from the date of filing thereof (the “Effectiveness Deadline”), then the Company shall file with the SEC a Registration Statement for the resale of all of the Exchange Shares no later than (i) one business day following the end of the Piggy-back Registration Period or (ii) in the event that the Company has included all of the Exchange Shares in a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) and used its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as possible thereafter, but such Registration Statement has not be declared effective by the Registration Deadline, no later than one business day following the Effectiveness Deadline.

3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with the registration of the Exchange Shares, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a. The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the SEC, as soon as practicable, a Registration Statement with respect to the Exchange Shares (whether pursuant to Section 2(a) or 2(b)) and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to the Exchange Shares to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall cause such Registration Statement relating to the Exchange Shares to become effective no later than the 90 days from the date of filing, and shall keep the Registration Statement current and effective, and available for the resale of all of the Exchange Shares by the Lenders pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at all times until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Exchange Shares for such Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) the date on which all of the Exchange Shares for such Registration Statement (in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Lenders) may be immediately sold to the public without registration or restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof), and without compliance with any “current public information” requirement, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the “Registration Period”), which 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 not misleading (except that such provision shall not apply to any information provided by a Lender or any transferee of a Lender pursuant to Section 4(a)). The Registration Statement shall contain a plan of distribution approved by the Lenders.

b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement current and effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Exchange Shares of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Exchange Shares 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.

c. The Company will immediately notify the Lenders by email or facsimile of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment. The Company will respond to any and all comments received from the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable, with a view towards causing such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable and shall file an acceleration request as soon as practicable, but no later than five (5) business days, following the resolution or clearance of all SEC comments or, if applicable, following notification by the SEC that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review. No later than the second business day after the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company will file with the SEC the final prospectus included therein pursuant to Rule 424 (or successor thereto) under the Securities Act.

d. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, in any jurisdiction where registration and/or qualification is required, the Exchange Shares covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Lenders shall reasonably request, (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 Exchange Shares 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(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify each Lender of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and use its reasonable best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Lender as such Lender may reasonably request.

f. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment and to notify each Lender who holds Exchange Shares being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.

g. The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by the Lenders (“Legal Counsel”) to review, at Lenders' own cost, such Registration Statement, and all amendments and supplements thereto, a reasonable period of time (but not less than five (5) business days) prior to their filing with the SEC and not file any documents in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects and will not request acceleration of such Registration Statement without prior notice to Legal Counsel. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning a Lender 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 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 or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning such Lender is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Lender prior to making such disclosure, and allow such Lender, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

h. Within two (2) business days after a Registration Statement which includes Exchange Shares is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company cause the transfer agent for the Exchange Shares (with copies to each Lender) an appropriate instruction and, if required by the transfer agent, an opinion of such counsel in the form required by the transfer agent in order to issue the Exchange Shares free of restrictive legends.

i. At the reasonable request of a Lender, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement.

j. The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Lenders of Exchange Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement.

4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE DEERFIELD PARTY. In connection with the registration of the Exchange Shares, each Lender shall have the following obligations:

a. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Exchange Shares of a Lender that such Lender shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Exchange Shares held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Exchange Shares held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Exchange Shares and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Lender of the information the Company requires from such Lender. Any such information 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 not misleading.

b. Each Lender, by such Lender’s acceptance of the Exchange Shares, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Lender has notified the Company in writing of the Lender’s election to exclude all of such Lender’s Exchange Shares from such Registration Statement.

c. Each Lender agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or 3(f), the Lender will immediately discontinue disposition of Exchange Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Exchange Shares until the Lender’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or 3(f) and, if so directed by the Company, the Lender shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in the Lender’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Exchange Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice.

7. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Exchange Shares are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

a. The Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) each Lender and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, agents and each Person who controls any Lender within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, if any (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, “Claims”) to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (preliminary, final, free writing or otherwise), or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange 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 Exchange Shares (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable 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 provision contained in this Section 7(a) shall not apply (i) to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation to the extent that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or behalf of any Indemnified Person for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (ii) to any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim 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 sale of the Exchange Shares by the Lenders.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the opinion of counsel for the Lenders, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel (as well as local counsel) for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Lenders. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action, and shall not otherwise relieve the Company of any liability. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be or has been sought hereunder (whether or not any such Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Persons of a full release from all liability with respect to such Claim or which includes any admission as to fault or culpability on the part of any Indemnified Person.

c. Each Lender will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, or agents of the Company, if any (each, a “Company Indemnified Person”), against any Claims to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any Violation which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about a Lender, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by such Lender or on behalf of such Lender for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(c) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Lenders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, however, that a Lender shall be liable under this Section 7(c) for only that amount of an Indemnity Claim as does not exceed the net amount of proceeds received by such Lender as a result of the sale of Exchange Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement.

d. Promptly after receipt by a Company Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Company Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against a Lender under this Section 7, deliver to such Lender a written notice of the commencement thereof, and such Lender shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent such Lender so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to such Lender and the Company Indemnified Person, as the case may be.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Company Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Lenders, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Company, the representation by such counsel of the Company Indemnified Person and the Lender would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Company Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. A Lender shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Company Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected in the reasonable judgment of the Company.

8. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by the Company or any Lender is prohibited or limited by law, each of the Company and each Lender agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 7 to the fullest extent permitted by law, based upon a comparative fault standard.

9. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT. With a view to making available to the Lenders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Lenders to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

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

c. so long as any of the Lenders own Exchange Shares, promptly upon request, furnish to the Lenders (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act as required for applicable provisions of Rule 144, (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 Lenders to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

10. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by each Lender to any transferee of all or any portion of the Exchange Shares if: (i) such Lender 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, and (iii) 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. In the event that a Lender transfers all or any portion of its Exchange Shares pursuant to this Section, the Company shall have at least ten (10) days to file any amendments or supplements necessary to keep a Registration Statement current and effective, and available for the resale of all of the Exchange Shares, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act.

11. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority in interest of then-outstanding Exchange Shares. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11 shall be binding upon each of the Lenders and the Company.

12. MISCELLANEOUS.

a. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Exchange Shares whenever such Person owns of record or beneficially through a “street name” holder such Exchange Shares. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Exchange Shares, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Exchange Shares.

Windtree Successfully Completes Financial Restructuring Program

-Windtree and Lee’s Pharm Close $10 Million Share Purchase Agreement Giving Lee’s Pharm Controlling Interest in Windtree-

- Windtree and Deerfield Restructure and Retire $25 Million Long-term Debt -

-Windtree Improves Capital Structure to Support Advancing AEROSURF® and KL4 Platform-

-Windtree to Host Investor Conference Call Tomorrow November 2, 2017 at 8:00 AM ET-

WARRINGTON, PA and SHATIN, HONG KONG – November 1, 2017 – Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCQB: WINT), a biotechnology company focused on developing aerosolized KL4 surfactant therapies for respiratory diseases, and LPH Investments Limited (“LPHIL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lee's Pharmaceutical Holdings Limited ("Lee's Pharm," SEHK Stock Code: 0950), today announced that they have completed a financial restructuring of Windtree that includes a purchase by Lee’s Pharm via LPHIL of $10 million of Windtree’s common stock, giving Lee’s Pharm a controlling interest in Windtree, and a simultaneous restructuring and retirement of $25 million of long-term debt under the 2013 secured loan facility agreement between Windtree and affiliates of Deerfield Management Company, L.P. (“Deerfield”). The completion of these transactions improves Windtree’s balance sheet and better positions the Company to raise the capital needed to fund continued development of AEROSURF® for respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and potentially its pipeline of surfactant products utilizing its proprietary KL4 surfactant and aerosol device technologies.

“The successful completion of this financial restructuring is significant for Windtree. We now have a capital structure free of the financial overhang of long-term debt, and are better positioned to secure the additional capital necessary to realize the full potential of our KL4 surfactant and aerosol delivery platforms beginning with AEROSURF,” said Craig Fraser, President and Chief Executive Officer of Windtree. “Strategically, our broader collaboration with Lee’s Pharm expands our revenue potential and provides options to access capital from new markets and opportunities to diversify and build a broader portfolio.”

Under terms of the share purchase agreement, LPHIL purchased from Windtree $10 million of common stock to acquire a controlling interest of the Company at a price per share of $0.2163, representing a 15 percent premium to the average 10-day volume weighted average price per share (VWAP) through October 27, 2017. As partial consideration for the share purchase, Lee’s Pharm cancelled $3.9 million principal outstanding under an August 2017 loan agreement, which Lee’s Pharm had advanced in three equal installments in August, September, and October, 2017, to support AEROSURF development activities and sustain Windtree’s operations through October 31, 2017, while the parties negotiated the share purchase agreement.

To facilitate the share purchase by Lee’s Pharm, Deerfield agreed to restructure its $25 million secured loan to Windtree effective as of the closing of the share purchase agreement. Under the loan restructuring agreement, in exchange for return and cancellation of the Deerfield notes, Windtree paid to Deerfield $2.5 million in cash, and issued to Deerfield shares of common stock representing two percent of Windtree’s common stock post-closing on a fully-diluted basis, as defined in the loan restructuring agreement. In addition, Deerfield will be entitled to receive up to $15 million in future AEROSURF regulatory and commercial milestones, beginning with the filing for marketing approval in the United States.

“We firmly believe that Windtree’s KL4 surfactant platform represents a significant opportunity in China and elsewhere globally, with near-term potential that can be realized with the commercialization of SURFAXIN for RDS in FDA reference countries and even greater potential with SURFAXIN LS and especially AEROSURF in the future,” said Dr. Benjamin Li, Chief Executive Officer of Lee's Pharm. "It has long been our goal to globalize our business and have a majority interest in a public U.S. company that would strengthen our position in critical neonatal care and potentially allow us to further expand the reach of our acute pulmonary care portfolio. This transaction, and the potential it represents, comes at a value we could not ignore. The strength of Windtree’s management and revenue potential of its portfolio provide an opportunity that we are both confident in and very excited about.”
