Note 1 — Company Overview

Eton is an innovative pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases. The Company currently has five commercial rare disease products: ALKINDI SPRINKLE® for the treatment of pediatric adrenocortical insufficiency; Carglumic Acid for the treatment of hyperammonemia due to N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS) deficiency; Betaine Anhydrous for the treatment of homocystinuria; Nitisinone for the treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1); and PKU GOLIKE® medical formula for patients with phenylketonuria (“PKU”). The Company has three additional product candidates in late-stage development: ET-400, ET-600, and ZENEO® hydrocortisone autoinjector.

Note 2 — Liquidity Considerations

The Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents of $20,261 as of September 30, 2024 in addition to revenues from products will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of filing of this quarterly report. This estimate is based on the Company’s current assumptions, including assumptions relating to estimated sales and its ability to manage spending. The Company could use its available capital resources sooner than currently expected. Accordingly, the Company could seek to obtain additional capital through equity financings, the issuance of debt or other arrangements. However, the Company cannot make assurances that it will be able to raise additional capital if needed or under acceptable terms. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing stockholders, and newly issued stock could contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding common shares. The Company’s existing debt obligation contains covenants and limits the Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders. If the Company experiences delays in product development or sales growth, obtaining regulatory approval for its other product candidates, or is unable to secure such additional financing, it might need to scale back operations.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying condensed financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying interim condensed financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are also unaudited. The results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, any other interim periods, or any future year or period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, provisions for uncollectible receivables, chargebacks and sales returns, Medicaid program rebates, valuation of inventories, useful lives of assets and the recoverability of long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, the accrual of research and development expenses and milestones, and the valuation of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts, and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates or assumptions.

Segment Information

The Company operates the business on the basis of a single reportable segment, which is the business of developing and commercializing prescription drug products. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who evaluates the Company as a single operating segment.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents are held in U.S. financial institutions or invested in short-term U.S. treasury bills or high-grade money market funds. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s cash is in a non-interest-bearing account and a government money market fund. From time to time, amounts deposited with its bank exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes the associated credit risk to be minimal.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are non-interest bearing. Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for credit losses, cash discounts for prompt payment, distribution fees, chargebacks, rebates, and returns. The total for these reserves amounted to $229 and $129 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company considers historical collection rates and the current financial status of its customers, as well as information from internal and external sources, macroeconomic and industry-specific factors, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts when evaluating potential credit losses. Historically, the Company's accounts receivable balances have been highly concentrated with a select number of customers, consisting primarily of specialty pharmacies and large wholesale pharmaceutical distributors. Given the size and creditworthiness of these customers, we have not experienced and do not expect to experience material credit losses.

Inventories

The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out method of valuation. The Company reviews its inventories for potential excess or obsolete issues on an ongoing basis and will record a write-down if an impairment is identified. Inventories at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, consist solely of purchased finished goods. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, inventories are shown net of reserves for ALKINDI SPRINKLE® of $72 and $76, respectively, due to the risk of expiry before this entire stock of inventories is sold.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed utilizing the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives: computer hardware and software is depreciated over three years; equipment, furniture and fixtures is depreciated over five years; and leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and improvements are capitalized.

Intangible Assets

The Company capitalizes payments it makes for licensed products when the payment relates to a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)-approved product, and the cost is recoverable based on expected future cash flows from the product. The cost is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the product commencing on the approval date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. In November 2021, the Company purchased the rights for its Carglumic Acid product for $3,250, and that cost is being amortized over ten years. In September 2022, the Company purchased the rights for its Betaine Anhydrous product for $2,125, and that cost is being amortized over five years. In October 2023, the Company purchased the rights for its Nitisinone product for $650, and that cost is being amortized over five years. In March 2024, the Company purchased the rights for its PKU GOLIKE® product which resulted in a $1,868 intangible asset that is being amortized over ten years. The intangible assets, net on the Company’s balance sheet, reflected $2,039 of accumulated amortization as of September 30, 2024. The Company recorded $267 and $753, respectively, of amortization expense for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024. The table below shows the estimated remaining amortization for these products for each of the five years from 2024 to 2028 and thereafter.

	*Amortization*
Year	*Expense*
Remainder of 2024	$	266
2025		1,067
2026		1,067
2027		943
2028		609
Thereafter		1,902
Total estimated amortization expense	$	5,854

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. No impairment was recognized during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 or 2023.

Deferred Financing Costs, Debt Discount and Detachable Debt-Related Warrants

Costs incurred to issue debt are deferred and recorded as a reduction to the debt balance in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs over the expected term of the related debt under the effective interest method. Debt discounts related to the relative fair value of warrants issued in conjunction with debt are also recorded as a reduction to the debt balance and accreted over the expected term into interest expense using the effective interested method. The fair value of warrants related to the issuance of a delayed draw term loan commitment is capitalized as short-term assets. Once a draw is made, the unamortized asset is reclassified as a reduction to the related debt balance and amortized into interest expense under the effective interest method.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Leases

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842 – Leases. The Company reviews all relevant facts and circumstances of a contract to determine if it is a lease whereby the terms of the agreement convey the right to control the direct use and receive substantially all the economic benefits of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The associated right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement. The Company measures lease liabilities based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term discounted using the rate it would pay on a loan with the equivalent payments and term for the lease. The Company does not include the impact for lease term options that would extend or terminate the lease unless it is reasonably certain that it will exercise any such options. The Company accounts for the lease components separately from non-lease components for its operating leases.

The Company measures right-of-use assets based on the corresponding lease liabilities adjusted for (i) any prepayments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, (ii) initial direct costs it incurs, and (iii) any incentives under the lease. In addition, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its right-of-use assets for possible impairment in accordance with its long-lived assets policy.

Operating leases are reflected on the balance sheets as operating lease right-of-use assets, current accrued liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities. The Company did not have any finance leases as of September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

The Company commences recognizing operating lease expense when the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use by the Company and the operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Variable lease payments are expensed as incurred.

The Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less; such lease costs are recorded in the statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Sources of Supply and Significant Customers

The Company is subject to credit risk for its cash and cash equivalents which are invested in high-grade money market funds and short-term U.S. treasury bills from time to time. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalent balances with one major commercial bank, and the deposits held with the financial institution exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits and is exposed to credit risk in the event of a default by the financial institutions holding its cash and cash equivalents to the extent recorded on the balance sheets. The Company believes the associated credit risk to be minimal.

The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers for its products and product candidates. In particular, the Company relies, and expects to continue to rely, on a small number of suppliers to manufacture key chemicals, approved products and process its product candidates as part of its development programs. These programs could be adversely affected by a significant interruption in the manufacturing process.

The Company is also subject to credit risk from its accounts receivable related to product sales as it extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and collateral is not required. The Company considers historical collection rates and the current financial status of its customers, as well as information from internal and external sources, macroeconomic and industry-specific factors, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts when evaluating potential credit losses. Historically, the Company's accounts receivable balances have been highly concentrated with a select number of customers, consisting primarily of specialty pharmacies and large wholesale pharmaceutical distributors. Given the size and creditworthiness of these customers, we have not experienced and do not expect to experience material credit losses. Based upon the review of these factors, the Company did not record an allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2024 or 2023. The accounts receivable balance at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and product sales revenue recognized during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, primarily consist of sales to and amounts due from AnovoRx for sales of the Company’s ALKINDI SPRINKLE® and Carglumic Acid products. AnovoRx sales made up 93.6% of total net revenues recognized in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 and 98.5% of net accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024, and 72.9% of total net revenues recognized in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, and 97.4% of net accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023. Given the size and creditworthiness of these customers, we have not experienced and do not expect to experience material credit losses.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Revenue Recognition for Contracts with Customers

The Company accounts for contracts with its customers in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards. Under ASC 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations to assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Arrangements that include rights to additional goods or services that are exercisable at a customer’s discretion are generally considered options. The Company assesses whether these options provide a material right to the customer and, if so, they are considered performance obligations. The exercise of a material right is accounted for as a contract modification for accounting purposes.

The Company recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or over time, and if over time this is based on the use of an output or input method. Any amounts received prior to revenue recognition will be recorded as deferred revenue. Amounts expected to be recognized as revenue within the twelve months following the balance sheet date will be classified as current portion of deferred revenue in the Company’s balance sheets. Amounts not expected to be recognized as revenue within the twelve months following the balance sheet date are classified as long-term deferred revenue, net of current portion.

Milestone Payments – If a commercial contract arrangement includes development and regulatory milestone payments, the Company will evaluate whether the milestone conditions have been achieved and if it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur before recognizing the associated revenue. Milestone payments that are not within the Company’s control or the licensee’s control, such as regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received.

Royalties – For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on a level of sales, which are the result of a customer-vendor relationship and for which the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, the Company will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied or partially satisfied.

Significant Financing Component – In determining the transaction price, the Company will adjust consideration for the effects of the time value of money if the expected period between payment by the licensees and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the licensees will be more than one year.

The Company sells its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® products to pharmacy distributor customers which provide order fulfilment and inventory storage/distribution services. The Company may sell products in the U.S. to wholesale pharmaceutical distributors, who then sell the product to hospitals and other end-user customers. Sales to wholesalers are made pursuant to purchase orders subject to the terms of a master agreement, and delivery of individual shipments represent performance obligations under each purchase order. The Company uses a third-party logistics (“3PL”) vendor to process and fulfill orders and has concluded it is the principal in the sales to wholesalers because it controls access to the 3PL vendor services rendered and directs the 3PL vendor activities. The Company has no significant obligations to wholesalers to generate pull-through sales.

For its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® products, the Company bills at the initial product list price which are subject to offsets for patient co-pay assistance and potential state Medicaid reimbursements which are estimated and recorded as a reduction of net revenues at the date of sale/shipment. Selling prices initially billed to wholesalers are subject to discounts for prompt payment and subsequent chargebacks when the wholesalers sell products at negotiated discounted prices to members of certain group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) and government programs. Because of the shelf life of the product and the Company’s lengthy return period, there may be a significant period of time between when the product is shipped and when it issues credits on returned product.

The Company estimates the transaction price when it receives each purchase order taking into account the expected reductions of the selling price initially billed to the wholesaler/distributor arising from all of the above factors. The Company has developed estimates for future returns and chargebacks and the impact of other discounts and fees it pays. When estimating these adjustments to the transaction price, the Company reduces it sufficiently to be able to assert that it is probable that there will be no significant reversal of revenue when the ultimate adjustment amounts are known.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Company stores its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® inventory at its pharmacy distributor customer locations, and revenue is recorded when stock is pulled and shipped to fulfill specific orders. The Company may recognize revenue and cost of sales from products sold to wholesalers upon delivery to the wholesaler location. At that time, the wholesalers take control of the product as they take title, bear the risk of loss of ownership and have an enforceable obligation to pay the Company. They also have the ability to direct sales of product to their customers on terms and at prices they negotiate. Although wholesalers have product return rights, the Company does not believe they have a significant incentive to return the product.

Upon recognition of revenue from product sales, the estimated amounts of credit for product returns, chargebacks, distribution fees, prompt payment discounts, state Medicaid and GPO fees are included in sales reserves, accrued liabilities and net accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, estimated state Medicaid liability was $8,047 and $3,627, respectively. The Company monitors actual product returns, chargebacks, discounts and fees subsequent to the sale. If these amounts end up differing from its estimates, it will make adjustments to these allowances, which are applied to increase or reduce product sales revenue and earnings in the period of adjustment.

Cost of Sales

Cost of product sales consists of the profit-sharing and royalty fees with the Company’s product licensing and development partners, the purchase costs for finished products from third-party manufacturers, freight and handling/storage from the Company’s 3PL logistics service providers, and amortization expense of certain intangible assets. The costs of sales for profit-sharing, royalty fees, purchased finished products, and the associated inbound freight expense are recorded when the associated product sale revenue is recognized in accordance with the terms of shipment to customers while outbound freight and handling/storage fees charged by the 3PL service provider are expensed as they are incurred. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the product. Cost of product sales also reflects any write-downs or reserve adjustments for the Company’s inventories.

Cost of licensing revenue consists of the profit-sharing fees related to the Company’s product licensing and development partners.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses include both internal R&D activities and external contracted services. Internal R&D activity expenses include salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation, and other costs to support the Company’s R&D operations. External contracted services include product development efforts such as certain product licensor milestone payments, clinical trial activities, manufacturing and control-related activities, and regulatory costs. R&D expenses are charged to operations as incurred. The Company reviews and accrues R&D expenses based on services performed and relies upon estimates of those costs applicable to the stage of completion of each project. Significant judgments and estimates are made in determining the accrued balances at the end of any reporting period. Actual results could differ from the Company’s estimates.

Upfront payments and milestone payments made for the licensing of products that are not yet approved by the FDA are expensed as R&D in the period in which they are incurred. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services to be received in the future for use in R&D activities are recorded as prepaid expenses and are expensed as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing the Company’s financial statements, the Company must estimate the actual current tax liabilities and assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the balance sheets. The Company must assess the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance must be established. To the extent the Company establishes a valuation allowance or increase or decrease to this allowance in a period, the impact will be included in income tax expense in the statements of operations. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has established a 100% valuation reserve against its deferred tax assets.

The Company recorded income tax benefit of ($126) and zero for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company recorded income tax benefit of ($72) and zero for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our effective tax rate was (25.1%) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 and zero for the three month period ended September 30, 2023. Our effective tax rate was 2.4% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 and zero for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740 - Income Taxes. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties in its balance sheets at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and has not recognized interest and penalties in the statement of operations for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

In addition, under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards and other pre-change tax attributes (such as research tax credits) to offset its post-change income may be limited.

Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as unvested restricted stock, stock options, RSUs and warrants that are outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, common stock equivalents excluded 4,896,038 and 5,618,663, respectively, that were anti-dilutive. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, common stock equivalents excluded 6,319,907 and 4,821,906, respectively, that were anti-dilutive. Included in the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share calculation are RSUs awarded to directors that have vested, but the issuance and delivery of the shares of common stock are deferred until the director retires from service as a director.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The guidance under ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant and record expense over the related service periods, which are generally the vesting period of the equity awards.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based option awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“BSM”). The BSM requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, the calculation of expected term, forfeitures and the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, among other inputs. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields for zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term approximating the expected life of the options or warrants. Dividends on common stock are assumed to be zero for the BSM valuation of the stock options. The expected term of stock options granted is based on vesting periods and the contractual life of the options. Expected volatilities are based on the Company's historical volatility subsequent to our IPO, which we believe represents the most accurate basis for estimating expected future volatility under the current conditions. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Fair Value Measurements

We measure certain of our assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value accounting requires characterization of the inputs used to measure fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 — Observable inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent from the entity.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available.

Fair value measurements are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The determination of the fair values stated below take into account the market for the Company’s financials, assets and liabilities, the associated credit risk and other factors as required. The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and debt obligation. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the carrying value of the debt obligation approximates its fair value.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07 Segment Reporting - Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures. The standard requires enhanced disclosures of a public company's significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), and any additional measures of a segment's profit or loss used by the CODM when making resource allocation decisions, including for companies with a single reportable segment. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods after December 15, 2023 and in interim periods in 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts of the amendments, and it does not expect this pronouncement to have a material effect on its financial statements as the Company only has one reportable segment.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid, amongst others. The standard will be effective for public companies for annual periods beginning in 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on its financial statements.

Note 5 — Long-Term Debt

SWK Loan

In November 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “SWK Credit Agreement”) with SWK Holdings Corporation (“SWK”) which provided for up to $10,000 in financing. The Company received proceeds of $5,000 at closing and borrowed an additional $5,000 upon the FDA approval of a second product developed by the Company. In March 2020, the Company and SWK amended the SWK Credit Agreement, and the Company borrowed an additional $2,000 in August 2020. The term of the SWK Credit Agreement is for five years, and borrowings bear interest at a rate of LIBOR 3-month plus 10.0%, subject to a stated LIBOR floor rate of 2.0%. A 2.0% unused credit limit fee was assessed during the first twelve months after the date of the SWK Credit Agreement and loan fees include a 5.0% exit fee based on the principal amounts drawn which is payable at the end of the term of the SWK Credit Agreement. The Company was required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $3,000, only pay interest on the debt until February 2022 and then pay 5.5% of the loan principal balance commencing on February 15, 2022 and then every three months thereafter until November 13, 2024 at which time the remaining principal balance is due. Borrowings under the SWK Credit Agreement are secured by the Company’s assets. The SWK Credit Agreement contains customary default provisions and covenants which limit additional indebtedness.

In connection with the initial $5,000 borrowed under the SWK Credit Agreement, the Company issued warrants to SWK to purchase 51,239 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $5.86 per share. The relative fair value of these warrants was $226 and was estimated using BSM with the following assumptions: fair value of the Company’s common stock at issuance of $5.75 per share; seven-year contractual term; 95% volatility; 0% dividend rate; and a risk-free interest rate of 1.8%.

In connection with the additional $2,000 borrowed in August 2020, the Company issued warrants for 18,141 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $6.62 per share. The relative fair value of the 18,141 warrants was $94 and was estimated using BSM with the following assumptions: fair value of the Company’s common stock at issuance of $6.85 per share; seven-year contractual term; 95% volatility; 0% dividend rate; and a risk-free interest rate of 0.4%.

Note 5 — Long-Term Debt (continued)

In April 2022, the Company and SWK further amended the SWK Credit Agreement to allow for a deferral of loan principal payments until May 2023 and reduce the interest rate to LIBOR 3-month plus 8.0%, subject to a stated LIBOR floor rate of 2.0%. Because LIBOR was phased out as of June 30, 2023, the Company amended the Credit Agreement in August 2023 to refer to the secured overnight financing rate ("Term SOFR"), with an interest rate of Term SOFR plus 8.26%, subject to a stated Term SOFR floor rate of 5.0%.

In September 2024, the Company and SWK further amended the SWK Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date of the existing loan to December 31, 2024 and expand the credit facility by $25,695 to $30,000, contingent upon closing of the October 2024 purchase agreement for Increlex® (see Note 12). Under the terms of the amendment, the facility’s maturity will be extended to 3 years from closing of the October 2024 purchase agreement and reduce the annual interest rate to Term SOFR plus 6.75% with no change to the Term SOFR floor rate of 5.0%. In accordance with the change, the Company has classified $4,125 as principal due in the next 12 months in its balance sheet at September 30, 2024.

In connection with the additional $25,695 to be borrowed at closing of the October 2024 purchase agreement, the Company has agreed to issue warrants for 289,736 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $5.32 per share. The pro rata fair value of the warrants related to the extension of the debt is deferred and recorded as a reduction to the debt balance in the accompanying balance sheets, and the Company amortizes these costs over the expected term of the related debt under the effective interest method. The pro rata fair value of the warrants related to the issuance of a delayed draw term loan commitment is capitalized as short-term assets. Once a draw is made, the unamortized asset is reclassified as a reduction to the related debt balance and amortized into interest expense under the effective interest method. All warrants (the “SWK Warrants”) are exercisable upon issuance and have a term of seven years from the date of issuance. The SWK Warrants are subject to a cashless exercise feature, with the exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise subject to change in connection with stock splits, dividends, reclassifications and other conditions.

Interest expense of $211 was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2024, which included $22 of debt discount amortization. Interest expense of $267 was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2023, which included $29 of debt discount amortization. Interest expense of $672 was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which included $70 of debt discount amortization. Interest expense of $805 was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which included $90 of debt discount amortization. As of September 30, 2024, $408 of accrued interest is included in accrued liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, $332 of accrued interest is included in accrued liabilities.

The table below reflects the future payments for the SWK loan principal and interest as of September 30, 2024.

Note 8 — Share-Based Payment Awards

The Company adopted the Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), which authorized the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and in 2018 it adopted the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan as amended December 2020 (the “2018 Plan”) which replaced the 2017 Plan. The Company has granted restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), stock options and RSUs for its common stock under both plans as detailed in the tables below. There were 470,511 shares available for future issuance under the 2018 Plan as of September 30, 2024.

Share awards that expire, terminate, are surrendered, or canceled without having been fully exercised will be available for future awards under the 2018 Plan. In addition, the 2018 Plan provides that commencing January 1, 2019 and through January 1, 2028, the share reserve will be increased annually by 4% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the preceding December 31, subject to a reduction at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. The exercise price for stock options granted is not less than the fair value of common stock as determined by the board of directors as of the date of grant. The Company uses the closing stock price on the date of grant as the exercise price.

To date, all stock options issued have been non-qualified stock options, and the exercise prices were set at the fair value for the shares at the dates of grant. Options typically have a ten-year life.

The Company’s previous Chief Financial Officer had 474,295 employee stock options with an exercise price range of $1.37 to $8.61 which were set to expire three months after his retirement date of May 31, 2022; however, the Company extended the expiration date to April 10, 2023. Of these options, 365,858 options were exercised on a cashless basis in January and March 2023, and the remainder expired in April 2023. No other terms were modified.

In August 2024, the Company’s board of directors approved a modification of certain outstanding awards of a senior executive who retired in August 2024. The combined awards had an exercise price range of $3.47 to $8.61 which were set to expire 90 days after retirement or termination as the case may be, and the Company extended the expiration dates to November 2025 in conjunction with ongoing consulting services. No other terms were modified. Due to these modifications, the Company incurred a modification expense of $75 that is included in general and administration expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s total stock-based compensation expense was $2,383 and $2,387, respectively. Of these amounts, $2,138 and $2,191 were recorded in general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses, respectively, and $245 and $196 were recorded in research and development expenses, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock at September 30, 2024 for those stock options that had strike prices lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

Stock-based compensation related to stock options was $559 and $639 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Stock based compensation related to stock options was $1,991 and $2,115 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, there was a total of $5,266 of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock option awards. The weighted average grant date fair value of stock option awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $2.94 per share. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued 2,500 shares of its stock resulting from stock option exercises at a weighted average exercise price of $2.97 per share with an intrinsic value of $2.

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)

The following table summarizes restricted stock unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

	*Number of Units*			*Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Unit*
Outstanding and unvested as of December 31, 2023		274,204		$	2.63
Granted		—		$	—
Vested		(90,402	)	$	—
Forfeited		(23,000	)	$	—
Outstanding and unvested as of September 30, 2024		160,802		$	2.63

Stock-based compensation related to RSUs was $171 and $179 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, there was $376 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested RSUs, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) provides for an initial reserve of 150,000 shares, and this reserve is automatically increased on January 1 of each year by the lesser of 1% of the outstanding common shares at December 31 of the preceding year or 150,000 shares, subject to reduction at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. As of September 30, 2024, there were 718,274 shares available for issuance under the ESPP.

The annual offerings consist of two stock purchase periods, with the first purchase period ending in June and the second ending in December. The terms of the ESPP permit employees of the Company to use payroll deductions to purchase stock at a price per share that is at least the lesser of (1) 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the first date of an offering or (2) 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of purchase. After the offering period ends, subsequent twelve-month offering periods automatically commence over the term of the ESPP on the day that immediately follows the conclusion of the preceding offering, each consisting of two purchase periods approximately six months in duration. The terms of the ESPP provide a restart feature if the Company's stock price is lower at the end of a six-month period within the twelve-month offering period than it was at the beginning of the twelve-month offering period.

For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, there were 55,240 and 57,616 share issuances, respectively, under the ESPP. The weighted average fair value of share awards in the first nine months of 2024 and 2023 was $1.34 and $1.22, respectively. Employees contributed $209 and $181 via payroll deductions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company recorded an expense of $145 and $93 related to the ESPP in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the accompanying condensed balance sheets include $48 and $24, respectively, in accrued liabilities for employee ESPP contributions.

Note 9 — Related-Party Transactions

Chief Executive Officer

The CEO has a partial interest in a company that the Company had partnered with for its EM-100/Alaway® Preservative Free eye allergy product as described below.

The Company acquired the exclusive rights to sell the EM-100 product in the United States pursuant to a Sales and Marketing Agreement (the “Eyemax Agreement”) dated August 11, 2017, between the Company and Eyemax LLC (“Eyemax”), an entity affiliated with the Company’s CEO. Under the terms of the Eyemax Agreement, the Company would pay Eyemax $250 upon FDA approval, $500 upon the first commercial sale of the product, and a royalty of 10% on the net sales of all products. The Eyemax Agreement was for an initial term of ten years from the date of the Eyemax Agreement, subject to successive two-year renewals unless the Company elected to terminate the Eyemax Agreement.

On February 18, 2019, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement with Eyemax amending the Sales Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amended Agreement, Eyemax sold the Company all of its right, title and interest in EM-100, including any such product that incorporates or utilizes Eyemax’s intellectual property rights. Pursuant to the Amended Agreement, the Company paid Eyemax two milestone payments: (i) one milestone payment for $250 upon regulatory approval in the territory by the FDA of the first single agent product and (ii) one milestone payment for $500 following the first commercial sale of the first single agent product in the territory. From the effective date of the Amended Agreement, the Company has realized a total of $1,840 of the non-royalty and royalty revenue through September 30, 2024. The EM-100 asset and its associated product rights were sold to Bausch Health on February 18, 2019, and future potential royalties of twelve percent on Bausch Health sales of the product, named Alaway® Preservative Free by Bausch, which was approved by the FDA in September 2020, would be split between Eyemax and the Company. There were no amounts due to Eyemax under the terms of the Amended Agreement as of September 30, 2024, and Bausch Health discontinued sales of Alaway® Preservative Free effective March 24, 2023.

The CEO has a partial interest in a company that the Company has entered into an agreement with as described below.

Previously, the Company acquired DS-200 and all related intellectual property pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the “Selenix Agreement”) dated June 23, 2017 between the Company and Selenix LLC (“Selenix”), an entity affiliated with the CEO. On August 30, 2024, the Company amended the Selenix Agreement in tandem with an agreement to sell DS-200 in August 2024 (see Note 11). Pursuant to the terms of the amended Selenix Agreement, Selenix waived its rights to future milestone payments and 50% of DS-200 profit in exchange for 45% of proceeds received by Eton from the DS-200 sale agreement. Selenix is 50% owned by Messa Holdings LLC (“Messa”), which is 100% owned by the CEO. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s balance sheet reflected a $220 payment due to Selenix in accrued liabilities.

Note 10 — Leases

The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for substantially all leases, including operating leases, and separates lease components from non-lease components related to its office space lease.

In June 2024, the Company renewed its office lease for a two-year period through March 2027 and recorded $219 in ROU assets and $219 in operating lease liabilities in association with the lease extension.

The Company’s operating lease cost as presented as G&A in the condensed statements of operations was $61 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and $57 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $35 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and $66 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The ROU asset non-cash lease expense was $53 and $50 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is reflected within non-cash lease expense on the Company’s condensed statements of cash flows. As of September 30, 2024, the weighted-average remaining lease term was 2.50 years, and the weighted-average incremental borrowing rate was 8.6%.

The table below presents the lease-related assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 (in thousands).

Legal

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that may arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation matters at this time that would have a material impact on the operations of the Company.

License and product development agreements

The Company has entered into various agreements in addition to those discussed above which are described below.

The three oral solution pediatric neurology product candidates discussed below, Topiramate, Zonisamide, and Lamotrigine were developed by the Company and its various product candidate development partners, and the Company subsequently sold certain rights and interests in these three products to Azurity in 2021, but retained rights to certain royalties. The Company has recognized $27,500 in milestone revenues to date from these three products, and in June 2023 the Company amended its asset purchase agreement with Azurity and sold the remaining royalty interests it received back to Azurity for $5,500. Azurity will assume royalty or profit share obligations owed to development partners as well as additional milestone payments based on sales volume targets.

In March 2020, the Company entered into an Exclusive Licensing and Supply Agreement (the “Alkindi License Agreement”) with Diurnal for marketing ALKINDI SPRINKLE® in the United States. In September 2020, ALKINDI SPRINKLE®’s New Drug Application (NDA) was approved by the FDA as a replacement therapy for pediatric patients with adrenocortical insufficiency.

For the initial licensing milestone fee, the Company paid Diurnal $3,500 in cash and issued 379,474 shares of its common stock to Diurnal which were valued at $1,264 based on the Company’s closing stock price of $3.33 on March 26, 2020. The Company paid Diurnal $1,000 for a 2023 sales milestone in January 2024 that was recorded as licensing cost of sales in December 2023, and will also pay Diurnal $2,500 if the product obtains orphan drug exclusivity status from the FDA.

In June 2021, the Company acquired U.S. and Canadian rights to Crossject’s ZENEO® hydrocortisone needleless autoinjector, which is under development as a rescue treatment for adrenal crisis. The Company paid Crossject $500 upon signing, $500 in March 2022 upon a completion of a successful technical batch and could pay up to $3,500 in additional development milestones and up to $6,000 in commercial milestones, as well as a 10% royalty on net sales.

In October 2021, the Company acquired the U.S. marketing rights to Carglumic Acid Tablets. The product’s Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”), which is owned by Novitium Pharma, was approved by the FDA on October 12, 2021. The product is an AB-rated, substitutable generic version of Carbaglu®. The Company paid $3,250 upon signing and retains 50% of the product profits with the balance being distributed to the licensor and manufacturer. The Company launched this product in December 2021.

Note 11 — Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

In September 2022, the Company acquired an FDA-approved ANDA for Betaine Anhydrous for oral solution. The ANDA was approved by the FDA in January 2022. The Company paid $2,000 to the seller upon signing and an additional $125 in November 2023, and could pay up to $1,000 in commercial milestones based on future product sales. The Company will retain 65% of the product profits with the balance being distributed to the licensor.

In March 2023, the Company acquired rare disease endocrinology product candidate ET-600 from Tulex Pharmaceuticals. The Company paid $450 to Tulex in July 2023 as a result of successful manufacturing of registration batches. The Company will pay Tulex $200 upon acceptance by the FDA of the NDA for the product, $250 upon first commercial sale of the product, and tiered royalties of 12.5% to 17.0% on net sales.

In October 2023, the Company acquired an FDA-approved ANDA for Nitisinone. The ANDA was approved by the FDA in May 2023. The Company paid $150 to the seller and an additional $500 of cure amounts owed to the manufacturer upon signing. The Company will retain 80% of the product profits with the balance being distributed to the manufacturer.

In March 2024, the Company acquired the rights to PKU GOLIKE® medical formula. The Company paid $2,350 to the seller upon signing, which was allocated as $482 of inventory and $1,868 of an intangible asset (product licensing rights) based on the relative fair value of the purchased assets. The Company could pay up to $2,000 in commercial milestones based on future product sales and will pay the seller a royalty of 30% of net sales, which will include the cost of the product.

In August 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its DS-200 product candidate. The Company received $500 upfront and could receive additional payments of up to $6,500 based on the achievement of certain future regulatory and commercial milestones related to DS-200. The Company will retain 45% of the proceeds from the transaction with the balance being distributed to other partners.

Indemnification

As permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, the Company is required to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is or was serving in such capacity. The Company is also party to indemnification agreements with its directors and officers. The Company believes the fair value of the indemnification rights and agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any liabilities for these indemnification rights and agreements as of September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Note 12 — Subsequent Events

On October 2, 2024, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Ipsen Biopharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Seller”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to acquire Increlex® (mecasermin injection) from Seller. Increlex is a biologic product used to treat children who suffer from severe primary insulin-like growth factor 1 deficiency (SPIGFD) because their bodies do not produce enough insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). The product is approved in 40 territories, including the United States and the European Union.

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will purchase Increlex® for $22.5 million at closing and will pay an additional $7.5 million for product inventory. The Company will also make payments to Seller of $2.5 million on each of the first and second anniversaries of closing. In addition, the Company will be obligated to purchase additional inventory over 30 months, in an amount not to exceed €15.0 million.

The acquisition is structured as an all-cash purchase without any financing contingencies (see Note 5) and is expected to close near year-end 2024, subject to customary closing conditions. Each of the Company and Seller have made customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in the Purchase Agreement. As part of the acquisition, the parties have entered into a transition services agreement, whereby Seller will continue to distribute the product in markets outside the United States for a period of six months following the closing. The Company will immediately commercialize the product within the United States upon closing.

Overview

Eton is an innovative pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases. The Company currently has five commercial rare disease products: ALKINDI SPRINKLE® for the treatment of pediatric adrenocortical insufficiency; Carglumic Acid for the treatment of hyperammonemia due to N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS) deficiency; Betaine Anhydrous for the treatment of homocystinuria; Nitisinone for the treatment of hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1); and PKU GOLIKE® medical formula for patients with phenylketonuria (“PKU”). The Company has three additional product candidates in late-stage development: ET-400, ET-600, and ZENEO® hydrocortisone autoinjector.

Results of Operations (dollars in thousands)

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had $10,324 in total revenue that generated a gross profit of $6,302. We had total revenue of $7,028 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023 that generated a gross profit of $4,403 for the period. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume of the Company's ALKINDI SPRINKLE® and Carglumic Acid products, along with sales volume from Nitisinone and PKU GOLIKE® products launched in 2024 and licensing revenue of $500 from the sale of its DS-200 product candidate in September 2024.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we had $27,364 in total revenue that generated a gross profit of $16,935. We had total revenue of $24,329 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 that generated a gross profit of $17,431 for the period. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume of the Company's ALKINDI SPRINKLE® and Carglumic Acid products, along with sales volume from Nitisinone and PKU GOLIKE® products launched in 2024, which were offset by decreased licensing revenue of $5,500 from the sale of royalty interests to Azurity in June 2023.

Research and Development Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $505 of research and development (“R&D”) expenses as compared to $615 for the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to decreased expenses associated with ET-400 project development activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $4,126 of research and development (“R&D”) expenses as compared to $2,275 for the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to increased expenses associated with ET-400 project development activities.

Table of Contents

General and Administrative Expenses

G&A expenses consist primarily of employee compensation expenses, legal and professional fees, product marketing expenses, distribution expenses, business insurance, travel expenses, and general office expenses.

For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $5,288 and $4,336, respectively, of G&A expenses. The increase in G&A expenses was mainly due to increased sales and marketing expenses and employee related expenses.

For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred $16,035 and $14,355, respectively, of G&A expenses. The increase in G&A expenses was mainly due to increased sales and marketing expenses, legal fees, and employee related expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, we had total assets of $35.8 million, cash and cash equivalents of $20.3 million and working capital of $10.0 million. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand, along with continued product revenues, will be sufficient for at least the next twelve months of our operations. However, our projected estimates for our product development spending, administrative expenses, and our working capital requirements could be inaccurate, or we may experience growth more quickly or on a larger scale than we expect, any of which could result in the depletion of capital resources more rapidly than anticipated and could require us to seek additional financing earlier than we expect to support our operations.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):

	Nine months ended			Nine months ended
	September 30, 2024			September 30, 2023
Net cash from operating activities	$	1,734		$	6,428
Cash from investing activities		(1,882	)		—
Cash from financing activities		(979	)		(663	)
Change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(1,127	)	$	5,765

The decrease in cash from operating activities was primarily due to a $5,500 sale of royalty interests to Azurity in June 2023, a $1,000 milestone payment related to 2023 ALKINDI SPRINKLE® sales in January 2024, and increased inventory purchases for ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Nitisinone, and PKU GOLIKE® in 2024. The decrease in cash from investing activities was due to a $1,868 payment related to the acquisition of the PKU GOLIKE® product license in March 2024. The decrease in cash from financing activities was primarily due to payments on the Company's long-term debt.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses in our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 3 to our financial statements included herein, we believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

We account for contracts with our customers in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards. Under ASC 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

At contract inception, once we determine the contract falls within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Arrangements that include rights to additional goods or services that are exercisable at a customer’s discretion are generally considered options. We assess whether these options provide a material right to the customer and, if so, they are considered performance obligations. The exercise of a material right is accounted for as a contract modification for accounting purposes.

We recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or over time, and if over time this is based on the use of an output or input method. Any amounts received prior to revenue recognition will be recorded as deferred revenue. Amounts expected to be recognized as revenue within the twelve months following the balance sheet date will be classified as current portion of deferred revenue in our balance sheets. Amounts not expected to be recognized as revenue within the twelve months following the balance sheet date are classified as long-term deferred revenue, net of current portion.

Milestone Payments – If a commercial contract arrangement includes development and regulatory milestone payments, we will evaluate whether the milestone conditions have been achieved and if it is probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur before recognizing the associated revenue. Milestone payments that are not within our control or the licensee’s control, such as regulatory approvals, are generally not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received.

Royalties – For arrangements that include sales-based royalties, including milestone payments based on a level of sales, which are the result of a customer-vendor relationship and for which the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, we will recognize revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied or partially satisfied.

Significant Financing Component – In determining the transaction price, we will adjust consideration for the effects of the time value of money if the expected period between payment by the licensees and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the licensees will be more than one year.

Table of Contents

The Company sells its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® products to pharmacy distributor customers which provide order fulfilment and inventory storage/distribution services. The Company may sell products in the U.S. to wholesale pharmaceutical distributors, who then sell the product to hospitals and other end-user customers. Sales to wholesalers are made pursuant to purchase orders subject to the terms of a master agreement, and delivery of individual shipments represent performance obligations under each purchase order. The Company uses a third-party logistics (“3PL”) vendor to process and fulfill orders and has concluded it is the principal in the sales to wholesalers because it controls access to the 3PL vendor services rendered and directs the 3PL vendor activities. The Company has no significant obligations to wholesalers to generate pull-through sales.

For its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® products, the Company bills at the initial product list price which are subject to offsets for patient co-pay assistance and potential state Medicaid reimbursements which are estimated and recorded as a reduction of net revenues at the date of sale/shipment. Selling prices initially billed to wholesalers are subject to discounts for prompt payment and subsequent chargebacks when the wholesalers sell products at negotiated discounted prices to members of certain group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) and government programs. Because of the shelf life of the product and the Company’s lengthy return period, there may be a significant period of time between when the product is shipped and when the Company issues credits on returned product.

The Company stores its ALKINDI SPRINKLE®, Carglumic Acid, Betaine Anhydrous, Nisitinone, and PKU GOLIKE® inventory at its pharmacy distributor customer locations, and sales are recorded when stock is pulled and shipped to fulfill specific patient orders. The Company may recognize revenue and cost of sales from products sold to wholesalers upon delivery to the wholesaler location. At that time, the wholesalers take control of the product as they take title, bear the risk of loss of ownership and have an enforceable obligation to pay the Company. They also have the ability to direct sales of product to their customers on terms and at prices they negotiate. Although wholesalers have product return rights, the Company does not believe they have a significant incentive to return the product.

Upon recognition of revenue from product sales, the estimated amounts of credit for product returns, chargebacks, distribution fees, prompt payment discounts, state Medicaid and GPO fees are included in sales reserves, accrued liabilities and net accounts receivable. The Company monitors actual product returns, chargebacks, discounts and fees subsequent to the sale. If these amounts end up differing from its estimates, it will make adjustments to these allowances, which are applied to increase or reduce product sales revenue and earnings in the period of adjustment.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The guidance under ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant and record expense over the related service periods, which are generally the vesting period of the equity awards.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based option awards using the BSM. The BSM requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, the calculation of expected term, forfeitures and the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, among other inputs. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields for zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term approximating the expected life of the options or warrants. Dividends on common stock are assumed to be zero for the BSM valuation of the stock options. The expected term of stock options granted is based on vesting periods and the contractual life of the options. Expected volatilities are based on the Company's historical volatility subsequent to our IPO, which we believe represents the most accurate basis for estimating expected future volatility under the current conditions. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Research and Development Expenses

R&D expenses include both internal R&D activities and external contracted services. Internal R&D activity expenses include salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation, and other costs to support our R&D operations. External contracted services include product development efforts including certain product licensor milestone payments, clinical trial activities, manufacturing and control-related activities, and regulatory costs. R&D expenses are charged to operations as incurred. We review and accrue R&D expenses based on services performed and rely upon estimates of those costs applicable to the stage of completion of each project. Significant judgments and estimates are made in determining the accrued balances at the end of any reporting period. Actual results could differ from our estimates.

Upfront payments and milestone payments made for the licensing of products that are not yet approved by the FDA are expensed as R&D in the period in which they are incurred. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services to be received in the future for use in R&D activities are recorded as prepaid expenses and are expensed as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed.

Off Balance Sheet Transactions

We do not have any off-balance sheet transactions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve capital. We do not utilize hedging contracts or similar instruments. We are exposed to certain market risks relating primarily to interest rate risk on our cash and cash equivalents and risks relating to the financial viability of the institutions which hold our capital and through which we have invested our funds. We manage such risks by investing in short-term, liquid, highly rated instruments. As of September 30, 2024, our cash equivalents only included cash deposits at our bank. From time to time, we do have cash investments in short-term money market or U.S. treasury bills. We do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk in the current interest rate environment and the short duration of the invested funds we hold. Declines in interest rates would reduce our investment income but would not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. We do not currently have exposure to foreign currency risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating these disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective

The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

With respect to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management does not expect that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We operate in a dynamic and rapidly changing environment that involves numerous risks and uncertainties. Certain factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and you should carefully consider them. Other events that we do not currently anticipate or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our results of operations and financial condition.

You should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2023 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, cash flows or future results. The risk factors described in our 2023 10-K, are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results.

(b) On or about August 11, 2020, the Lenders, severally and for themselves alone, made an additional term loan in the original principal amount of $2,000,000.00, resulted in an aggregate, outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan of $7,000,000.00 immediately following the funding of such advance (the “August 2020 Term Loan”).

2.4 Indebtedness Absolute; No Offset; Waiver.

As of the Closing Date, the Loan has not been compromised, adjusted, extended, satisfied, rescinded, set-off or modified, and the Loan Documents are not subject to any litigation, dispute, refund, claims of rescission, set-off, netting, counterclaim or defense whatsoever, including but not limited to, claims by or against any Loan Party or any other Person.

Without limitation to the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law and notwithstanding any other term or provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Borrower hereby waives (and shall cause each Loan Party to waive) (a) presentment, protest and demand, notice of default (except as expressly required in the Loan Documents), notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, notice of protest, notice of demand and of dishonor and non-payment of the Obligations, (b) any requirement of diligence or promptness on Agent’s part in the enforcement of its rights under the provisions of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, (c) any rights, legal or equitable, to require any marshalling of assets or to require foreclosure sales in a particular order, (d) all notices of every kind and description which may be required to be given by any statute or rule of law except as specifically required hereunder, (e) the benefit of all laws now existing or that may hereafter be enacted providing for any appraisement before sale or any portion of the Collateral, (f) all rights of homestead, exemption, redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the Obligations in the event of foreclosure of the Liens created by the Loan Documents, (g) [reserved], and (h) any defense to the obligation to make any payments required under the Loan Documents, including the obligation to pay taxes based on any damage to, defects in or destruction of the Collateral or any other event, including obsolescence of any of the Collateral, it being agreed and acknowledged that such payment obligations are unconditional and irrevocable. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees (i) to any substitution, subordination, exchange or release of any security or the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable for the payment of the Loan; (ii) that Agent shall not be required to first institute suit or exhaust its remedies hereon against others liable for repayment of all or any part of the Loan, whether primarily or secondarily (collectively, the “Obligors”), or to perfect or enforce its rights against any Obligor or any security for the Loan; and (iii) that its liability for payment of the Loan shall not be affected or impaired by any determination that any security interest or lien taken by Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders to secure the Loan is invalid or unperfected. Borrower acknowledges, warrants and represents in connection with each waiver of any right or remedy of Borrower contained in any Loan Document, that it has been fully informed with respect to, and represented by counsel of its choice in connection with, such rights and remedies, and all such waivers, and after such advice and consultation, has presently and actually intended, with full knowledge of its rights and remedies otherwise available at law or in equity, to waive or relinquish such rights and remedies to the full extent specified in each such waiver.

-19-

2.5 Loan Accounting.

2.5.1 Recordkeeping.

Agent, on behalf of each Lender, shall record in its records the date and amount of the Loan made by each Lender, each prepayment and repayment thereof. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be final, binding and conclusive absent manifest error. The failure to so record any such amount or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of the Loans hereunder, together with all interest accruing thereon.

2.5.2 Notes.

At the request of any Lender, the Loan of such Lender shall be evidenced by a Note, with appropriate insertions, payable to such Lender in a face principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share and payable in such amounts and on such dates as are set forth herein.

2.6 Payment of Interest.

2.6.1 Interest Rates.

(a) The outstanding principal balance under the Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate of interest equal to the Contract Rate (as may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with this Section 2.6.1). Whenever, subsequent to the date hereof, the Term SOFR Rate is increased or decreased (as determined on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to each Payment Date), the Contract Rate, as set forth herein, shall be similarly changed effective as of such subsequent Payment Date, without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such change in the Term SOFR Rate on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to each such Payment Date. The interest due on the principal balance of the Loan outstanding as of any Payment Date shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed during the period in question on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days and shall be calculated by determining the daily principal balance outstanding for each day of such period in question. The daily rate shall be equal to 1/360th times the Contract Rate. If any statement furnished by Agent for the amount of a payment due exceeded the actual amount that should have been paid because the Term SOFR Rate decreased and such decrease was not reflected in such statement, Borrower shall make the payment specified in such statement from Agent and Borrower shall receive a credit for the overpayment, which credit shall be applied towards the next subsequent payment due hereunder. If any statement furnished by Agent for the amount of a payment due was less than the actual amount that should have been paid because the Term SOFR Rate increased and such increase was not reflected in such statement, Borrower shall make the payment specified in such statement from Agent and Borrower shall be required to pay any resulting underpayment with the next subsequent payment due hereunder.

-20-

(b) Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that any default on any payment, or portion thereof, due hereunder or to be made under any of the other Loan Documents, will result in losses and additional expenses to Agent in servicing the Loan, and in losses due to Lenders’ loss of the use of funds not timely received. Borrower further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any such Default, Lenders would be entitled to damages for the detriment proximately caused thereby, but that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain the extent of or compute such damages. Therefore, upon the Term Loan Maturity Date and/or upon the occurrence and during the existence of an Event of Default (or upon any acceleration), interest shall automatically accrue hereunder, without notice to Borrower, at the Default Rate. The Default Rate shall be calculated and due from the date that the Default occurred which led to the Event of Default without regard to any grace or cure period as may be applicable and shall be payable upon demand.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate for any Loan (if applicable), together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, “charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder (if applicable), together with all charges payable in respect of the Loan, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful, the interest and charges that would have been paid in respect of such Loan but were not paid as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest (if any) and charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. Any amount collected by such Lender that exceeds the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Loan or refunded to the Borrower so that at no time shall the interest (if any) and charges paid or payable in respect of such Loan exceed the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate.

2.6.2 Payments of Interest and Principal.

Borrower shall pay to Lenders all accrued interest on the Loan in arrears on each Payment Date, upon a prepayment of such Loan in accordance with Section 2.8 and at maturity in cash. Any partial prepayment of the Loan shall be applied in inverse order of maturity and so shall not reduce the amount of any quarterly principal amortization payment required pursuant to Section 2.9.1 (but this shall not be construed as permitting any partial prepayment other than as may be expressly permitted elsewhere in this Agreement).

2.7 Fees.

(a) Origination Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for its own account, a fee (the “Origination Fee”) in the amount of $100,000, which Origination Fee shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable on the Closing Date.

(b) September 2024 Term Loan Fee. Contemporaneously with the funding of the September 2024 Term Loan, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, an origination fee in the amount of $385,425, which origination fee shall be deemed fully-earned and non-refundable September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower hereby directs Agent to withhold funds from the advance of the September 2024 Term Loan to satisfy the origination fee set forth in this Section 2.7(b).

-21-

(c) Exit Fee. Upon the Termination Date, Borrower shall pay an exit fee (the “Exit Fee”) to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, in an amount equal to (x) five percent (5.0%) multiplied by (y) the aggregate, original principal amount of the Term Loan advanced hereunder, which Exit Fee shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable on the Termination Date.

2.8 Prepayment.

2.8.1 Mandatory Prepayment.

(a) Borrower shall prepay the Obligations within three (3) Business Days after the receipt by a Loan Party of any Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition, in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds.

(b) In connection with any prepayment of the Term Loan made pursuant to this Section 2.8.1, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, any amounts that would otherwise be due and payable on such date had Borrower voluntarily prepaid the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.8.2.

2.8.2 Voluntary Prepayment.

(a) Subject to clause (b) below and Section 2.8.3 hereof, Borrower may, from time to time on at least five (5) Business Days’ written notice or telephonic notice (followed on the same Business Day by written confirmation thereof) to Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender thereof) not later than 12:00 noon Dallas time on such day, prepay the Term Loan and all related Obligations in whole or in part at any time prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date; provided, that, (i) any such partial prepayment of the Obligations shall be in an amount equal to at least $1,000,000 or, if the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition is less than $1,000,000, the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds, (ii) such partial prepayments shall be limited to $5,000,000, in the aggregate, in either case from the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date until the two (2) year anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date, (iii) any such partial prepayments shall be applied (A) first to the outstanding principal balance of the Closing Date Term Loan, (B) second to the then outstanding principal balance of the August 2020 Term Loan and (C) third otherwise in accordance with Section 2.9.1(b) or Section 2.10.2 (as applicable) and (iv) shall not otherwise reduce any subsequent amortization requirements of Borrower that would otherwise be due and owing on subsequent Payment Dates.

-22-

(b) If Borrower makes a prepayment in full (but not in part) of the Term Loan under Section 2.8.2(a) prior to the two (2) year anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date, it shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders and in addition to any such prepayment in full of the Term Loan and related Obligations, a prepayment fee on the date of such prepayment calculated as follows (the “September 2024 Term Loan Prepayment Fee): the additional amount that would be needed to be paid such that the sum of:

(w) such September 2024 Term Loan Prepayment Fee, plus

(x) the aggregate payments actually made in cash to all Lenders on or prior to such date in respect of the principal amount of the September 2024 Term Loan (excluding, in each case, any amounts paid in respect of costs, indemnifications or reimbursements, any amounts realized by Agent and Lenders in connection with any warrants issued to Agent and Lenders in connection with the Term Loan from time to time and/or any fees paid to Agent and Lenders in connection with any amendments to this Agreement entered into from time to time), plus

(y) the Exit Fee allocable to the September 2024 Term Loan and the origination fee paid to Agent and Lenders in the amount of $385,425 (or deducted from the September 2024 Term Loan proceeds, as the case may be) in connection with the September 2024 Term Loan) plus (z) the aggregate interest payments actually made in cash to all Lenders on or prior to such date allocable to the September 2024 Term Loan (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any interest accrued at the Default Rate), results in an amount equal to:

(i) as it relates to any such prepayment prior to the three (3) month anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date, (A) one and five hundredths (1.05) multiplied by (B) the original principal amount of the September 2024 Term Loan;

(iv) as it relates to any such prepayment on or after the one (1) year anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date but prior to the two (2) year anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date, the amount that results in an internal rate of return of eighteen percent (18.0%) on the original principal amount of the September 2024 Term Loan.

For the avoidance of doubt, no prepayment fee shall otherwise be due and owing in connection with a prepayment in full of the Term Loan on or after the two (2) year anniversary of the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date.

-23-

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, a permitted payment under this Section 2.8.2 is independent of and in addition to Revenue-Based Payments that are credited toward the principal of the Loans under Section 2.9.1(b). Notwithstanding anything set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents to the contrary, any prepayment of the Loans other than via the application of Revenue-Based Payments made pursuant to Section 2.9.1 or Section 2.10.2, as applicable, or prepayments in accordance with Section 2.8.1 or Section 2.8.3 shall be limited and governed by this Section 2.8.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.8 to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuation of a material default hereunder by a Lender or Agent, Borrower may prepay all or any part of the Loans without the payment of any such prepayment penalty or premium described in this Section 2.8.

2.9 Repayment of Term Loan.

2.9.1 Revenue-Based Payment.

(a) During the period commencing on the date hereof until the Obligations are Paid in Full, Borrower promises to pay to Agent, for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Term Loan Share, an amount based on a percentage of the aggregate of the Net Sales, Royalties and any other income or revenue realized by Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, in accordance with GAAP (collectively, the “Aggregate Revenue”) in each Fiscal Quarter (the “Revenue-Based Payment”), which will be applied to the Obligations as provided in clause (b) below. The Revenue-Based Payment with respect to each Fiscal Quarter shall be payable on the Payment Date next following the end of such Fiscal Quarter. Commencing with the Fiscal Quarter beginning January 1, 2019, the Revenue-Based Payment with respect to each Fiscal Quarter shall be equal to:

(i) the aggregate Revenue-Based Payments payable during the period commencing as of January 1 of the Fiscal Year of which such Fiscal Quarter is part, through the end of such Fiscal Quarter (such elapsed portion of the Fiscal Year, the “Elapsed Period”), calculated as the net sum of:

(A) One hundred percent (100.00%) of Aggregate Revenue during the Elapsed Period up to and including $10,000,000; plus

(B) Fifty percent (50.00%) of Aggregate Revenue during the Elapsed Period greater than $10,000,000; minus

(ii) the aggregate amount of Revenue-Based Payments, if any, made pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 2.9.1(b), with respect to prior Fiscal Quarters in such Fiscal Year; provided that the Revenue-Based Payment is payable solely upon Aggregate Revenue in a given Fiscal Year, and will not be calculated on a cumulative, year-over-year basis.

For the avoidance of any doubt, Borrower may calculate the net amount due under this Section 2.9.1(a) and pay to Agent only such net amount due. Borrower is not obligated to pay the entire amounts specified in Sections 2.9.1(a)(i)(A) and (B) to Agent and then have Agent return to Borrower the balance after subtracting the amounts specified in Section 2.9.1(a)(ii).

-24-

(b) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and until the Obligations have been Paid in Full, each Revenue-Based Payment on each Payment Date will be applied in the following priority:

(i) FIRST, to the payment of all fees, costs, expenses and indemnities due and owing to Agent pursuant to Sections 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, 6.3(d), 10.4 and/or 10.5 under this Agreement or otherwise pursuant to the Collateral Documents, and any other Obligations owing to Agent in respect of sums advanced by Agent to preserve or protect the Collateral or to preserve or protect its security interest in the Collateral;

(ii) SECOND, to the payment of all fees, costs, expenses and indemnities due and owing to Lenders in respect of the Loans and Commitments pursuant to Sections 2.7, 3.1, 3.2, 6.3(d), 10.4 and/or 10.5 under this Agreement or otherwise pursuant to the Collateral Documents, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share, until Paid in Full;

(iii) THIRD, to the payment of all accrued but unpaid interest in respect of the Loans as of such Payment Date, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share, until Paid in Full;

(iv) FOURTH, as it relates to each Payment Date on or after the Payment Date occurring in May 2026, to the payment of all principal of the Loans, pro rata based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share, in the amount of $3,000,000 on each such Payment Date; and

(v) FIFTH, all remaining amounts to the Borrower.

In the event that the amounts distributed under this clause (b) on any Payment Date are insufficient for payment of the amounts set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above for such Payment Date, Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the extent of such insufficiency, in immediately available funds, within five (5) Business Days of request by Agent.

(c) In the event that Borrower makes any adjustment to Aggregate Revenue after it has been reported to Agent, and such adjustment results in an adjustment to the Revenue-Based Payment due to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.9.1, Borrower shall so notify Agent and such adjustment shall be captured, reported and reconciled with the next scheduled report and payment of Revenue-Based Payment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and Borrower shall discuss and agree on the amount of any such adjustment prior to it being given effect with respect to future Revenue-Based Payments.

2.9.2 Principal.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan and all other Obligations then due and owing (including any amounts due pursuant to Section 2.8.2 hereof that may be due and owing on such date) shall be Paid in Full on the Termination Date.

-25-

2.10 Payment.

2.10.1 Making of Payments.

Except as set forth in the last sentence of this Section 2.10.1, all payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts, shall be made in immediately-available funds, via ACH or wire transfer as directed by Agent in writing, not later than 1:00 p.m. Dallas time on the date due, and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by Agent on the following Business Day. Not later than two (2) Business Days prior to each Payment Date, Agent shall provide to Borrower and each Lender a quarterly statement with the amounts payable by Borrower to Agent on such Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.9.1(b) hereof, which shall include, for additional clarity, Agent’s calculation of the Revenue-Based Payment for the prior Fiscal Quarter, which statement shall be binding on Borrower absent manifest error, and Borrower shall be entitled to rely on such quarterly statement in relation to its payment obligations on such Payment Date.

2.10.2 Application of Payments and Proceeds

Following an Event of Default.

Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or if the Obligations have otherwise become or have been declared to become immediately due and payable in accordance with this Agreement, then notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, Agent shall apply all or any part of payments in respect of the Obligations and proceeds of Collateral, in each case as received by Agent, to the payment of the Obligations in the order and priority as determined by Agent in its sole discretion.

2.10.3 Set-off.

Borrower agrees that Agent and each Lender and its Affiliates have all rights of set-off and bankers’ lien provided by applicable law, and in addition thereto, Borrower agrees that at any time an Event of Default exists, Agent and each Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply to the payment of any Obligations of Borrower hereunder then due, any and all balances, credits, deposits, accounts or moneys of Borrower then or thereafter with Agent or such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall exercise any rights described in the preceding sentence without the prior written consent of Agent.

2.10.4 Proration of Payments.

If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of set-off or otherwise, on account of principal of, interest on or fees in relation to any Loan, but excluding any payment pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 10.5 or 10.8) in excess of its applicable Pro Rata Term Loan Share of payments and other recoveries obtained by all Lenders on account of principal of, interest on or fees in relation to such Term Loan then held by them, then such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.

-26-

Section 3 Yield Protection.

3.1 Taxes.

(a) All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder by or on behalf of Borrower to or for the account of Agent or any Lender shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp, documentary, property or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, levies, withholdings or other similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that is a taxing authority (“Taxes”), excluding (i) taxes imposed on or measured by Agent’s or any Lender’s net income (however denominated) or gross profits, and franchise taxes, imposed by any jurisdiction (or subdivision thereof) under the laws of which Agent or such Lender is organized or in which Agent or such Lender conducts business or, in the case of any Lender, in which its applicable lending office is located, (ii) any branch profit taxes imposed by the United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which Agent or a Lender is located or conducts business; (iii) in the case of any Foreign Lender, any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Foreign Lender at the time such Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement or designates a new lending office; (iv) in the case of any U.S. Lender, any United States federal backup withholding tax; and (v) taxes imposed under FATCA (items in clauses (i) through (v), “Excluded Taxes,” and all Taxes other than Excluded Taxes, “Indemnified Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then Borrower shall: (w) make such withholding or deduction; (x) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted; (y) as promptly as practicable forward to Agent the original or a certified copy of an official receipt or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and (z) if the withholding or deduction is with respect to Indemnified Taxes, pay to Agent for the account of Lenders such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each Lender will equal the full amount such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction of Indemnified Taxes been required. To the extent that any amounts shall ever be paid by Borrower in respect of Indemnified Taxes, such amounts shall, for greater certainty, be considered to have accrued and to have been paid by Borrower as interest on the Loans.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify Agent and each Lender for any Indemnified Taxes paid by Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder, and any additions to Tax, penalties and interest paid by Agent or such Lender with respect to such Indemnified Taxes; provided that Borrower shall not have any obligation to indemnify any party hereunder for any Indemnified Taxes or additions to Tax, penalties or interest with respect thereto that result from or are attributable to such party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Payment under this Section 3.1(b) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Agent or the Lender, as applicable, makes written demand therefor; provided, however, that if such written demand is made more than one-hundred eighty (180) days after the earlier of (i) the date on which Agent or the Lender, as applicable, pays such Indemnified Taxes or additions to Tax, penalties or interest with respect thereto and (ii) the date on which the applicable Governmental Authority makes written demand on Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for payment of such Indemnified Taxes or additions to Tax, penalties or interest with respect thereto, then Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify Agent or such Lender for such Indemnified Taxes or additions to Tax, penalties or interest with respect thereto.

-27-

(c) Each Foreign Lender that is a party hereto on the Closing Date or becomes an assignee of an interest under this Agreement under Section 10.8.1 after the Closing Date (unless such Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) shall deliver to Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement:

(i) Two duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or IRS Form W-8BENE) claiming exemption from withholding of Taxes under an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party;

(ii) two duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) a certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and Borrower claiming entitlement to the portfolio interest exemption under Section 881(c) of the IRC and certifying that such Foreign Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC, or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC, together with two duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or IRS Form W-8BENE); or

(iv) if the Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner of amounts paid to it hereunder, two duly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, each accompanied by a duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN (or IRS Form W-8BENE), IRS Form W-9 or a portfolio interest certificate described in clause (iii) above from each beneficial owner of such amounts claiming entitlement to exemption from withholding or backup withholding of Taxes.

Each Foreign Lender shall (to the extent legally entitled to do so) provide updated forms to Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date any prior form previously provided under this clause (c) becomes obsolete or expires, after the occurrence of an event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (c) or from time to time if requested by Borrower or Agent. Each U.S. Lender shall deliver to Agent and Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Borrower or Agent) properly completed and executed originals of IRS Form W‑9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from backup withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to or indemnify any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 with respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld (or any additions to Tax, penalties or interest with respect thereto) (A) on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption provided by a Lender pursuant to this clause (c), or (B) if such Lender shall fail to comply with the certification requirements of this clause (c).

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall timely comply with any certification, documentation, information or other reporting necessary to establish an exemption from withholding under FATCA and shall provide any documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent sufficient for Borrower and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements.

-28-

(e) If Agent or a Lender determines that it is entitled to or has received a refund of any Taxes for which it has been indemnified by Borrower (or another Loan Party) or with respect to which Borrower (or another Loan Party) shall have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.1, it shall promptly notify Borrower of such refund, and promptly make an appropriate claim to the relevant Governmental Authority for such refund (if it has not previously done so). If Agent or a Lender receives a refund (whether or not pursuant to such claim) of such Taxes, it shall promptly pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Loan Parties under this Section 3.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that Borrower, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay to Agent or such Lender the amount paid over to Borrower in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 3.1(e) shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person or to alter its internal practices or procedures with respect to the administration of Taxes.

3.2 Increased Cost.

(a) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any applicable law, rule or regulation by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be considered a change in applicable law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued), or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the Closing Date of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the FRB), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by any Lender; or (ii) shall impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its ability to make loans based on the Term SOFR Rate or its obligation to make loans based on the Term SOFR Rate; and the result of anything described in clauses (i) and (ii) above is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) such Lender of making or maintaining any loan based on the Term SOFR Rate, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, then upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Agent), and without duplication of other payment obligations of Borrower hereunder (including pursuant to Section 3.1), Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one-hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor; provided that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such one-hundred eighty (180) day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause (a) will not apply to any such increased costs or reductions resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 3.1 shall govern.

-29-

(b) If any Lender shall reasonably determine that any change after the Closing Date in, or the adoption or phase-in after the Closing Date of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change after the Closing Date in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive issued after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be considered a change in applicable law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such change, adoption, phase-in or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such controlling Person to be material, then from time to time, within five (5) Business Days of demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one-hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor; provided that if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions has retroactive effect, such one-hundred eighty (180) day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect.

(c) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under this Section 3.2, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (i) make, issue, fund or maintain its Loans through another office of such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this Section 3.2 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this clause (c) unless Borrower agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Borrower pursuant to this clause (c) (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-30-

3.3 Funding Losses.

Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the amount being claimed, a copy of which shall be furnished to Agent), Borrower will indemnify such Lender against any net loss or expense which such Lender has actually sustained or incurred (including any reasonable, documented net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain the Term Loan subject to the Term SOFR Rate, as reasonably determined by such Lender) as a result of (a) any payment or prepayment of the Term Loan of such Lender on a date other than the Term Loan Maturity Date or (b) any failure of Borrower to borrow any Loan on a date specified therefor in a notice of borrowing pursuant to this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 3.3, all determinations shall be made as if such Lender had actually funded and maintained the Term Loan through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to the Loan and bearing an interest rate equal to the Term SOFR Rate during such period of time being measured. Nothing in this Section 3.3 shall be interpreted to obligate the Loan Parties to indemnify any Lender for lost profits associated with any event described herein.

3.4 Manner of Funding; Alternate Funding Offices.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it may determine at its sole discretion. Each Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill its commitment to make the Term Loan by causing any branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that in such event for the purposes of this Agreement (other than Section 3.1) such Loan shall be deemed to have been made by such Lender and the obligation of Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender and shall be deemed held by it, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or Affiliate.

3.5 Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival.

Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 3.1 or 3.2, and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes and termination of this Agreement.

Section 4 Conditions Precedent.

The obligation of each Lender to make its Loan hereunder is subject to the following conditions precedent, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory in all respects to Agent.

4.1 Prior Debt.

The Prior Debt, if any, has been (or concurrently with the initial borrowing will be) paid in full and all related Liens, if any, have been (or concurrently with the initial borrowing will be) released.

6.13 Right of First Refusal.

If Borrower shall have obtained a bona fide, third-party offer for secured financing prior to the earlier of (i) the prepayment in full of the Term Loan or (ii) the Term Loan Maturity Date that Borrower intends on accepting and/or consummating (each being a “Third-Party Financing Offer”), Borrower shall, prior to accepting or consummating such Third-Party Financing Offer, promptly inform Agent in writing (which may be by email) of the existence of such Third-Party Financing Offer and which notice shall outline the material economic terms and conditions of such Third-Party Financing Offer (“Third-Party Financing Offer Notice”). Agent shall have a right of first refusal to match the Third-Party Financing Offer’s material terms with respect to any financing or refinancing, (in each case, the “Material Terms”).

-51-

After the receipt of such Third-Party Financing Offer Notice, Agent shall have fourteen days (14) days to agree to match the Material Terms of such Third-Party Financing Offer on terms which shall be the same or better (as determined by the Borrower in its reasonable discretion) than the Material Terms of such Third-Party Financing Offer (the “Acceptance”); provided that in the event the Agent declines to exercise its right under a Third-Party Financing Offer, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower of its decision in writing (which may be by email).

Upon Borrower’s receipt of the Acceptance, Agent and one or more additional lenders selected by Agent, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other hand, shall, in good faith enter into an agreement for such financing or refinancing transaction on the Material Terms set forth in such Acceptance (subject to the satisfaction of appropriate conditions in respect of due diligence, documentation and other customary and commercial conditions precedent, the “Definitive Documentation”). If Agent shall have declined to exercise its right under such Third-Party Financing Offer or, after good faith efforts, Borrower, Agent and such other lender(s) are unable to enter into or consummate the Definitive Documentation (“End Date”), Borrower or such Affiliates shall be free to consummate such Third-Party Financing Offer within one hundred eighty (180) days of the End Date on terms substantially similar to the terms of such Third Party Financing Offer. If such Loan Party shall have failed to so consummate such transaction within said one hundred eighty (180) days or if the Material Terms of such transaction are materially modified from the description of such terms in the Third-Party Financing Offer Notice, then a new right of first refusal for the benefit of Agent with respect to such transaction shall immediately arise.

Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Required Lenders (or all Lenders if expressly required hereunder) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, confirmation from Lenders of their obligation to indemnify Agent against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of Required Lenders (or all Lenders if expressly required hereunder) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender.

9.5 Notice of Default.

Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or any such default in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders.

Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party which may come into the possession of Agent.

9.7 Indemnification.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand Agent and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share, from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses, including Legal Costs, except to the extent any thereof result from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out‑of‑pocket expenses (including Legal Costs) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 9.7 shall survive repayment of the Loans, cancellation of the Notes, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Collateral Documents, termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

9.8 Agent Individually.

SWK and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any Loan Party and any Affiliate of any Loan Party as though SWK were not Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, SWK or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of any such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to their Loans (if any), SWK and its Affiliates shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though SWK were not Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include SWK and its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, in their individual capacities.

9.9 Successor Agent.

Agent may resign as Agent at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to Lenders and Borrower (unless during the existence of an Event of Default such notice is waived by Required Lenders). If Agent resigns under this Agreement, Required Lenders shall, with (so long as no Event of Default exists) the consent of Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint from among Lenders a successor agent for Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, on behalf of, and after consulting with Lenders and (so long as no Event of Default exists) Borrower, a successor agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent becomes effective, the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above; provided that in the case of any collateral security held by Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue so to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed and the provisions of this Section 9 and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit so long as retiring Agent shall continue to so hold such collateral security. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents in respect of the Collateral.

Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release, or subordinate its interest in, particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.10.

Agent shall release any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Collateral Document (i) when all Obligations have been Paid in Full, (ii) in respect of property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted hereunder (it being agreed and understood that Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of an officer of Borrower as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in compliance with this Agreement) or (iii) subject to Section 10.1, if directed to do so in writing by Required Lenders.

Each Lender further agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of any such intercreditor agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to issue blockages notices in connection with any such Debt of Borrower and such intercreditor agreement, or any replacement intercreditor agreement, in its discretion or, at the direction of Required Lenders.

-72-

(i) from Borrower for an assignment by a Lender (i) to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender or (ii) to any finance company, insurance company or other financial institution that invests in commercial loans similar to the financing transaction(s) contemplated in this Agreement in the ordinary course of its business, but, in each case, such Lender will give written notice to Borrower of any such assignment;

(ii) from Agent for an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender;

(iii) from Borrower or Agent for an assignment by SWK Funding LLC, as a Lender, to any Person for which SWK Advisors LLC acts as an investment advisor (or any similar type of representation or agency) pursuant to a written agreement, but SWK Funding LLC will give written notice to Borrower of any such assignment;

(iv) from Borrower or Agent for an assignment by a Lender of its Loans and its Note as collateral security to a Federal Reserve Bank or, as applicable, to such Lender’s trustee for the benefit of its investors (but no such assignment shall release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder); or

(v) from Borrower, Agent or any Lender for (A) the assignment of SWK’s Loans and Commitments to a Permitted Assignee (as defined below) or (B) a collateral assignment by SWK of, and the grant by SWK of a security interest in, all of SWK’s right, title and interest in, to and under each of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all of SWK’s rights and interests in, to and under this Agreement, the Obligations and the Collateral (collectively, the “Assigned Rights”), to a Permitted Assignee, provided that no such collateral assignment shall release SWK from any of its obligations under any of the Loan Documents. In connection with any enforcement of or foreclosure upon its security interests in any of the Assigned Rights, a Permitted Assignee, upon notice to Borrower, SWK and the other Lenders, shall be entitled to substitute itself, or its designee, for SWK as a Lender under this Agreement. For purposes hereof, the term “Permitted Assignee” shall mean any lender to or funding source of SWK or its Affiliate, together with its successors, assigns or designees (including, without limitation, any purchaser or other assignee of the Assigned Rights from such Person). Effective immediately upon the replacement of SWK as a Lender under this Agreement by a Permitted Assignee in accordance with this clause (v), SWK shall automatically be deemed to have resigned as Agent pursuant to Section 9.9 of this Agreement (without the need for Agent giving advance written notice of such resignation as required pursuant to such Section 9.9), and Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent in accordance with Section 9.9 of this Agreement.

(b) From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (i) such Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to such Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights (other than its indemnification rights) and obligations hereunder. Upon the request of the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to the Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) a Note in the principal amount of the Assignee’s Pro Rata Term Loan Share (and, as applicable, a Note in the principal amount of the Pro Rata Term Loan Share retained by the assigning Lender). Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of such assignment. Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower any prior Note held by it.

-73-

(c) Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof. The entries in such register shall be, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.8.1 or any other provision of this Agreement, any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its Loans and its Note (i) as collateral security to a Federal Reserve Bank or, as applicable, to such Lender’s trustee for the benefit of its investors (but no such assignment shall release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder) and (ii) to (w) an Affiliate of such Lender which is at least fifty percent (50%) owned (directly or indirectly) by such Lender or by its direct or indirect parent company, (x) its direct or indirect parent company, (y) to one or more other Lenders or (z) to an Approved Fund.

10.9 Participations.

Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Loans, Commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (a) such Lender’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (b) Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and (c) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect to any event described in Section 10.1 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all affected Lenders. Each Lender agrees to incorporate the requirements of the preceding sentence into each participation agreement which such Lender enters into with any Participant. Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with Lenders, and Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 2.10.4. Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3 as if it were a Lender (provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to such benefits unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with the documentation requirements of Section 3.1(c) as if it were a Lender and complies with such requirements, and provided, further, that no Participant shall receive any greater compensation pursuant to Section 3 than would have been paid to the participating Lender if no participation had been sold). Any such Lender transferring a participation shall, as an agent for Borrower, maintain in the United States a register to record the names, address, and interest, principal and other amounts owing to, each Participant. The entries in such register shall be, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Participant hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such participation register shall be available for inspection by the Agent or Borrower, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior written notice from Agent or Borrower.

-74-

10.10 Confidentiality.

Borrower, Agent and each Lender agree to use commercially reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts Borrower, Agent or such Lender applies to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all information (including, without limitation, any information provided by Borrower pursuant to Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.9) provided to them by any other party hereto and/or any other Loan Party, as applicable, except that Agent and each Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons employed or engaged by Agent or such Lender or any of their Affiliates (including collateral managers of Lenders) in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans and the Commitments (provided that such Persons have been informed of the covenants contained in this Section 10.10); (b) to any assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that has agreed to comply with the covenants contained in this Section 10.10 (and any such assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant may disclose such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a) above); (c) as required or requested by any federal or state regulatory authority or examiner, or any insurance industry association, or as reasonably believed by Agent or such Lender to be compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of Agent’s or such Lender’s counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or in connection with any litigation to which Agent or such Lender is a party; (f) to any nationally recognized rating agency or investor of a Lender that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued or investment decisions with respect to such Lender; (g) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of Agent or any Lender; (h) to a Person that is an investor or prospective investor in a Securitization that agrees that its access to information regarding Borrower and the Loans and Commitments is solely for purposes of evaluating an investment in such Securitization and who agrees to treat such information as confidential; or (i) to a Person that is a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization. For purposes of this Section, “Securitization” means a public or private offering by a Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by the Loans or the Commitments. In each case described in clauses (c), (d) and (e) (as such disclosure in clause (e) pertains to litigation only), where the Agent or Lender, as applicable, is compelled to disclose a Loan Party’s confidential information, promptly after such disclosure the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall notify Borrower of such disclosure provided, however, that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be required to notify Borrower of any such disclosure (i) to any federal or state banking regulatory authority conducting an examination of the Agent or such Lender, or (ii) to the extent that it is legally prohibited from so notifying Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

ETON PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

WARRANT

for shares of Common Stock

September 30, 2024

This AMENDED AND RESTATED WARRANT (this “Warrant”) of Eton Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a corporation, duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), is being issued pursuant to that certain Fifth Amendment, dated the date hereof, to that certain Credit Agreement, dated November 13, 2019 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), between the Company and SWK Funding LLC (the “Agent”) granting Holder (as defined below) the right to purchase shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) as set forth herein. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning given them in the Credit Agreement. This Warrant was initially issued on November 13, 2019, was corrected on January 24, 2020, and was amended and restated on August 12, 2020 (as so amended and restated, the “Original Warrant”).

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby grants to SWK Funding LLC and its permitted successors and assigns (collectively, the “Holder”) the right to purchase from the Company shares of Common Stock (such shares underlying this Warrant, the “Warrant Shares”), at the applicable per share purchase price as calculated (the “Exercise Price”), subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments set forth below in this Warrant.

1. Exercise of Warrant. This Warrant shall be exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Section 1.

1.1 Manner of Exercise.

(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable as follows (each, a “Warrant Tranche”):

(i) As issued on November 13, 2019 and exercisable on or before November 13, 2026, for 51,239 shares of Common Stock at an Exercise Price of $5.8550 (“Warrant Tranche 1”);

(ii) As issued on August 12, 2020 and exercisable on or before August 12, 2027, for 18,141 shares of Common Stock at an Exercise Price of $6.6150 (“Warrant Tranche 2”); and

(iii) As issued on the date hereof and exercisable on or before the end of the Exercise Period described below, for 289,736 shares of Common Stock at an Exercise Price of $5.32 (“Warrant Tranche 3”).

The number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable are sometimes hereinafter referred to as “Warrant Shares.” For purposes of this Section 1.1, the applicable “Exercise Price” for each Warrant Tranche shall be as set forth above for such Warrant Tranche. With respect to Warrant Tranche 1 and Warrant Tranche 2, the date of each applicable issuance date shall be the “Issuance Date” of such Warrant Tranche, and with respect to Warrant Tranche 3, the September 2024 Term Loan Advance Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall be the “Issuance Date” of Warrant Tranche 3 and the 7‑year period following such Issuance Date for such Warrant Tranche shall be the “Exercise Period” with respect to such Warrant Tranche. The last day of each applicable Exercise Period shall be the “Expiration Date” of such Warrant Tranche. Except as set forth in Section 1.4, any portion of any Warrant Tranche not exercised within the applicable Exercise Period and before the close of business on the Expiration Date shall be cancelled and not exercisable thereafter.

(b) Each Warrant Tranche may only be exercised by the Holder hereof during the applicable Exercise Period, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares) with respect to any portion of any Warrant Tranche, during the Company’s normal business hours on any day other than a Saturday or a Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized by law to be closed (a “Business Day”), by delivery to the Company at its office maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) hereof, of a written exercise notice in the form attached as Exhibit A (each an “Exercise Notice”) to this Warrant (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) duly executed by the Holder, together with the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of this Warrant. Upon surrender of this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant document and shall, in the event of partial exercise or any exercise prior to the funding event relating to the issuance of any of the Warrant Tranches, replace it with a new Warrant document in accordance with Section 1.3. The Holder shall not be required to deliver and original of the Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder, nor shall any ink-original signature or medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) with respect to any Exercise Notice be required. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of the Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.

(c) Except as provided for in Section 1.1(d) below, each exercise of this Warrant must be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price in cash by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds for the number of Warrant Shares being purchased by the Holder upon such exercise.

(d) The aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares being purchased may also, in the sole discretion of the Holder, be paid in full or in part on a “cashless basis” at the election of the Holder:

(i) In the form of Common Stock owned by the Holder (based on the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of such Common Stock on the date of exercise);

(ii) In the form of Warrant Shares withheld by the Company from the Warrant Shares otherwise to be received upon exercise of this Warrant having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of the exercise equal to the aggregate applicable Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares being purchased by the Holder; or

(iii) By a combination of the foregoing, provided that the combined value of all cash and the Fair Market Value of any shares surrendered to the Company is at least equal to the aggregate applicable Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares being purchased by the Holder.

For purposes of this Warrant, the term “Fair Market Value” means with respect to a particular date, the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable exercise herein as officially reported by the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading, or, if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any securities exchange as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, based on the best information available to it.

To illustrate a cashless exercise of this Warrant under Section 1.1(d)(ii) (or for a portion thereof for which cashless exercise treatment is requested as contemplated by Section 1.1(d)(iii) hereof), the calculation of such exercise shall be as follows:

X = Y (A-B)/A

where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder (rounded to the nearest whole share).

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

A = the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock.

B = the applicable Exercise Price.

(e) For purposes of Rule 144 and sub-Section 1.1(d)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood, and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction as described in Section 1.1(d) above shall be deemed to have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued. Moreover, it is intended, understood, and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in a cashless exercise transaction as described in Section 1.1(d) above shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued.

1.2 When Exercise Effective. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been duly surrendered to the Company as provided in Sections 1.1 and 7 hereof, and, at such time, the Holder in whose name any Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon exercise as provided in Section 1.3 hereof shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record thereof of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of this Warrant.

1.3 Delivery of Warrant Shares. On or before the first (1st) trading day following the date on which the Company has received the applicable Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). So long as the Holder delivers the aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a cashless exercise) on or prior to the second (2nd) trading day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the third (3rd) trading day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, or, if the Holder does not deliver the aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a cashless exercise) on or prior to the second (2nd) trading day following the date on which the Exercise Notice has been delivered to the Company, then on or prior to the second (2nd) trading day following the date on which the aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a cashless exercise) is delivered (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, 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 Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, 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 Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares via DTC, if any, including without limitation for same day processing. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record and beneficial owner 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 physically delivered to the Company in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1.1 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 three (3) trading days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to deliver Warrant Shares with respect to an exercise prior to the Holder’s delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a cashless exercise) with respect to such exercise. The Company may request a certificate from the Holder upon receipt of an Exercise Notice to the effect that the Holder does not beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below), and the Company shall have the right to rely on such certificate.

1.4 Automatic Exercise. In the event that, upon any applicable Expiration Date or other termination of this Warrant, the Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 hereof is greater than the applicable Exercise Price in effect on such date for any applicable Warrant Tranche, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to this Section 1.4 as to all Warrant Shares (or such other securities) of such applicable Warrant Tranche or Tranches for which it shall not previously have been exercised and which are then expiring, and the Company shall promptly deliver the Warrant Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder in accordance with Section 1.3.

1.5 Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Exercise Notice, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 1.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1.5 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, 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 1.5, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) 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 one (1) trading day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the 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” shall be 4.99% 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 this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 1.5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 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 this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 1.5 shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1.5 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained 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 this Warrant.

1.6 Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Date, if (x) the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such Common Stock on the Company’s share register or (y) the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC, for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (an “Exercise Failure”) and if on or after such trading day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) 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) trading days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for such shares of Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC, as applicable, and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable exercise date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date (the “Buy-In Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares (or to electronically deliver such Warrant Shares) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to participate in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program. In addition to the foregoing rights, if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1.6 or otherwise.

2. Certain Adjustments. For so long as this Warrant is outstanding:

2.1 Mergers or Consolidations. If at any time after the date hereof there shall be a capital reorganization (other than a combination or subdivision of Common Stock otherwise provided for herein) resulting in a reclassification to or change in the terms of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (a “Reorganization”), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with another corporation, association, partnership, organization, business, individual, government or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency (a “Person” or the “Persons”) (other than a merger with another Person in which the Company is a continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change in the terms of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or a merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company) (a “Merger”), any tender or exchange offers (a “Tender Offer”), the acquisition of at least 50% of the Company’s shares or voting power by any Person or Persons (a “Majority Transaction”) or any partial or complete liquidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (“Asset Sale”), then, as a part of such Reorganization, Merger, Tender Offer, Majority Transaction or Asset Sale (each a “Corporate Transaction”), lawful provision and adjustment shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of stock or any other equity or debt securities or property receivable upon such Corporate Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the Corporate Transaction to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustment of the Exercise Price then in effect and the number of Warrant Shares) shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities, property or other assets thereafter deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the event that the Company’s stockholders in any such Corporate Transaction have a choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in any Corporate Transaction, then the Holder will have the same choice upon exercise following such Corporate Transaction. The Company will not permit any Corporate Transaction unless the issuer of any shares of stock or other securities to be received by the Holder, if not the Company, agrees in writing to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive Corporate Transactions.

2.2 Splits and Subdivisions; Dividends. In the event the Company should at any time or from time to time effectuate a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or pay a dividend in or make a distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other securities, or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as “Common Stock Equivalents”) without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of the applicable record date (or the date of such distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the per share Exercise Price shall be appropriately decreased and the number of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately increased in proportion to such increase (or potential increase) of outstanding shares; provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made in the event the split, subdivision, dividend or distribution is not effectuated.

2.3 Combination of Shares. If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the per share Exercise Price shall be appropriately increased and the number of shares of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

2.4 Adjustments for Other Distributions. In the event the Company shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other Persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or other Persons, assets (excluding cash dividends or distributions to the holders of Common Stock paid out of current or retained earnings and declared by the Company’s Board of Directors) or options or rights not referred to in Sections 2.2 or 2.3 then, in each such case for the purpose of this Section 2.4, upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though the Holder was the actual record holder of the number of Warrant Shares as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Company entitled to receive such distribution.

3. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws or through any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, 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, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the terms and in the taking of all actions necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder against impairment. The Company shall not at any time, except upon complete dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, close its stock transfer books or Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise, conversion or transfer of any Warrant, unless otherwise required by any applicable federal, state or local law.

4. Notice as to Adjustments. With respect to each adjustment pursuant to Section 2 of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will promptly compute the adjustment or re-adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and furnish the Holder with a certificate certified and confirmed by the Secretary or Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment or re-adjustment and the amount of such adjustment or re-adjustment, the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which the adjustment or re-adjustment is based, and the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares or other securities purchasable hereunder with respect to each Warrant Tranche after giving effect to such adjustment or re-adjustment, which report shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid to the Holder.

5. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, at all times during the term of this Warrant, reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof and not subject to preemptive rights of shareholders of the Company, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect in full the exercise of this Warrant. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect in full the exercise of this Warrant, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to Holder, the Company will promptly take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including without limitation, using its Reasonable Commercial Efforts (as defined in Section 17 hereof) to obtain the requisite shareholder approval necessary to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Company hereby represents and warrants that all shares of Common Stock issuable upon proper exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized and, when issued and paid for upon proper exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

6. Restrictions on Transfer.

6.1 Restrictive Legends. This Warrant and each Warrant issued upon transfer or in substitution for this Warrant pursuant to Section 7 hereof, each certificate for Common Stock issued upon the exercise of the Warrant and each certificate issued upon the transfer of any such Common Stock shall be transferable only upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Section 6. Each of the foregoing securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend reflecting the restrictions on transfer set forth herein and any restrictions required under the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws.

6.2 Notice of Proposed Transfer. Prior to any transfer of any securities which are not registered under an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (“Restricted Securities”), which transfer may only occur if there is an exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and all other applicable securities laws, the Holder will give written notice to the Company of the Holder’s intention to effect a transfer (and shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer). The following provisions shall apply to any proposed transfer of Restricted Securities:

(i) If, in the opinion of counsel for the Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the proposed transfer may be effected without registration of the Restricted Securities under the Securities Act (which opinion shall state in detail the basis of the legal conclusions reached therein), the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to transfer the Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the Holder to the Company. Each certificate representing the Restricted Securities issued upon or in connection with any transfer shall bear the restrictive legends required by Section 6.1 hereof.

(ii) If the opinion called for in (i) above is not delivered, the Holder shall not be entitled to transfer the Restricted Securities until either: (x) receipt by the Company of a further notice from such Holder pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2 and fulfillment of the provisions of clause (i) above, or (y) such Restricted Securities have been effectively registered under the Securities Act; provided, however, that no opinion shall be required in the event that the Holder transfers the Warrant (or any portion thereof) to (A) any Person not involving a change in beneficial ownership, (B) any parent, subsidiary or other Affiliate, (C) any Lender under the Credit Agreement, or (D) any Person acquiring all or any substantial portion of Holder’s assets; provided, further, that any such transferee(s) in clauses (A) through (D) is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act.

7. Ownership, Transfer, Sale, and Substitution of Warrant.

7.1 Ownership of Warrant. The Company may treat any Person in whose name this Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(b) hereof as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, except that, if and when any Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) treat the bearer thereof as the owner of such Warrant for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Subject to Sections 6 and 7 hereof, this Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder without a new Warrant first having been issued.

7.2 Office; Exchange of Warrant.

(a) The Company will maintain its principal office at the location identified in the Company’s most current filing (as of the date notice is to be given) under the Exchange Act, or as the Company otherwise notifies the Holder.

(b) The Company shall cause to be kept at its office maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) hereof a “Warrant Register” for the registration and transfer of the Warrant. The name and address of the holder of the Warrant, the transfers thereof and the name and address of the transferee of the Warrant shall be registered in such Warrant Register. The Person in whose name the Warrant shall be so registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Warrant, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary.

(c) Upon the surrender of this Warrant, properly endorsed, for registration of transfer or for exchange at the office of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) hereof, the Company at its expense will (subject to compliance with Section 6 hereof, if applicable) execute and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of such holder or as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face of the Warrant so surrendered (after giving effect to any previous adjustment(s) to the number of Warrant Shares).

7.3 Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, upon delivery of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and amount or, in the case of any mutilation, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation at the office of the Company maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) hereof, the Company will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and dated the date hereof.

7.4 Opinions. In connection with the sale of the Warrant Shares by Holder, the Company agrees to cooperate with the Holder, and at the Company’s expense, to have its counsel provide any legal opinions required to remove the restrictive legends from the Warrant Shares in connection with a sale, transfer or legend removal request of Holder.

8. Registration and Listing.

8.1 Definition of Registrable Securities. As used herein, the term “Registrable Securities” means any shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant until the date (if any) on which such shares shall have been transferred or exchanged and new certificates for them not bearing a legend restricting further transfer shall have been delivered by the Company and subsequent disposition of the shares shall not require registration or qualification under the Securities Act or any similar state law then in force.

8.2 Incidental Registration Rights.

(a) If the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than in connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms) whether for its own account or for the account of any holder or holders of its shares other than Registrable Securities (any shares of such holder or holders (but not those of the Company and not Registrable Securities) with respect to any registration are referred to herein as, “Other Shares”), the Company shall at each such time give prompt (but not less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated effectiveness thereof) written notice to the holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so. The holders of Registrable Securities shall exercise the “piggy-back” rights provided herein by giving written notice within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such holder). Except as set forth in Section 8.2(b), the Company will use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by such holder, to the extent required to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the registration statement which covers the securities which the Company proposes to register. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses, as defined in Section 8.5 herein, in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 8.2.

(b) In the event the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as contemplated by this Section 8.2 and such securities are to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by a holder of Registrable Securities, use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such holder among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters. If the managing underwriter, in good faith, advises the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares the Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Other Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been requested, and (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 8 hereof, exceeds the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that can be sold without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method or the probability of success of such offering (the “Maximum Number of Shares”), then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Other Shares which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

8.3 Registration Procedures. Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities have properly requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to effect the registration for the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as possible:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;

(b) notify such holders of the effectiveness of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to (i) keep such registration statement effective and the prospectus included therein usable for a period commencing on the date that such registration statement is initially declared effective by the SEC and ending on the earlier of (A) the date when all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold pursuant to the registration statement or cease to be Registrable Securities, or (B) nine months from the effective date of the registration statement; and (ii) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

(c) furnish to such holders such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders;

(d) use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as such holders reasonably request and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to: (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph; (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction; or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(e) notify such holders, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not materially misleading, and, at the reasonable request of such holders, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not materially misleading;

(f) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(g) make available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, managers, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

(h) otherwise use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement of the Company, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and, at the option of the Company, Rule 158 thereunder;

(i) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order; and

(j) if the offering is underwritten, use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to furnish on the date that Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration, an opinion dated such date of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters covering such issues as are reasonably required by such underwriters.

8.4 Listing. The Company shall secure the listing of the Common Stock underlying this Warrant upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed or quoted (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing of shares of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market (or such other national securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock may then be listed, as applicable).

8.5 Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses relating to the registration and listing obligations set forth in this Section 8. For purposes of this Warrant, the term “Registration Expenses” means: (a) all registration, filing and FINRA fees, (b) all reasonable fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, (c) all word processing, duplicating and printing expenses, (d) the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of its independent public accountants, including the expenses of any special audits or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance, (e) premiums and other costs of policies of insurance (if any) against liabilities arising out of the public offering of the Registrable Securities being registered if the Company desires such insurance, if any, and (f) fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling holders of Registrable Securities; provided however, that, in any case where Registration Expenses are not to be borne by the Company, such expenses shall not include (and such expenses shall be borne by the Company): (i) salaries of Company personnel or general overhead expenses of the Company, (ii) auditing fees, or (iii) other expenses for the preparation of financial statements or other data, to the extent that any of the foregoing either is normally prepared by the Company in the ordinary course of its business or would have been incurred by the Company had no public offering taken place. Registration Expenses shall not include any underwriting discounts and commissions which may be incurred in the sale of any Registrable Securities and transfer taxes of the selling holders of Registrable Securities.

8.6 Information Provided by Holders. Any holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information as the Company may reasonably request in writing, including, but not limited to, a completed and executed questionnaire requesting information customarily sought of selling security holders, to enable the Company to comply with the provisions hereof in connection with any registration referred to in this Warrant. The Holder agrees to suspend all sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under Section 8.2 in the event the Company notifies Holder pursuant to Section 8.3(e) that the prospectus relating thereto is no longer current and will not resume sales under such registration statement until advised by the Company that the prospectus has been appropriately supplemented or amended.

8.7 Effectiveness Period. The Company shall use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to keep each registration statement contemplated hereunder continuously effective under the Securities Act until the date which is the earlier date of when (i) all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold, (ii) all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement may be sold immediately without registration under the Securities Act and without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and reasonably acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected holders of Registrable Securities, or (iii) nine months from the effective date of such registration statement.

9. Indemnification. In the event of any piggyback registration of any Warrant Shares under the Securities Act, and in connection with any registration statement or any other disclosure document pursuant to which securities of the Company are sold, the Company will, and hereby does, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless the Holder, its directors, officers, fiduciaries, and agents (each, a “Covered Person”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Covered Person may be or become subject under the Securities Act, any other securities or other laws of any jurisdiction, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any registration statement under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document, or (2) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, and will reimburse such Covered Person for any legal or any other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding, provided, however, the Company shall not be liable to any Covered Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding is determined, by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court or arbitral tribunal of competent jurisdiction, to have arisen out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, amendment or supplement, any document incorporated by reference or other such disclosure document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through an instrument duly executed by such Covered Person specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof.

10. Rights or Liabilities as Stockholder. No Holder shall be entitled to vote or be deemed the holder of any equity securities which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise). Notwithstanding the above, so long as Holder holds this Warrant and/or any of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall deliver to Holder (i) promptly, copies of all notices or other written communications to which Holder would be entitled if it held Shares as to which this Warrant was then exercisable, and (ii) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year, the Company’s quarterly, unaudited financial statements and within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Company’s annual, audited financial statements; provided, however, that with regard to annual meeting proxy statements and clause (ii) of this Section 10, it is understood and agreed that there shall be no such delivery requirement with respect to any such proxy statements or financial statements if such documents are available on EDGAR.

11. Notices. Any notice or other communication in connection with this Warrant shall be given in writing and directed to the parties hereto as follows: (a) if to the Holder, at the address of the holder in the Warrant Register maintained pursuant to Section 7 hereof, or (b) if to the Company, to the attention of its Chief Executive Officer at its office maintained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) hereof; provided, that the exercise of the Warrant shall also be effected in the manner provided in Section 1 hereof. Notices shall be deemed properly delivered and received when delivered to the notice party (i) if personally delivered, upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery, (ii) if sent via facsimile, upon mechanical confirmation of successful transmission thereof generated by the sending telecopy machine, (iii) if sent by a commercial overnight courier for delivery on the next Business Day, on the first Business Day after deposit with such courier service, (iv) if sent by registered or certified mail, five (5) Business Days after deposit thereof in the U.S. mail, or (v) if sent by email, the date of transmission if such notice or communication is delivered via email at the email address specified in the Credit Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Pacific time) on a Business Day, or the next Business Day after the date of transmission if such notice or communication is delivered via email at the email address specified in the Credit Agreement on a day that is not a Business Day or later than 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Pacific time) on a Business Day.

12. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant 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 transfer or registration of this Warrant or any certificate for shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder is responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant upon exercise hereof.

13. Amendments. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

14. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the state of New York. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the state of New York and of the United States District Court for the state of New York in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non conveniens, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such proceeding by any manner permitted by law.

15. Section Headings. The section headings in this Warrant are for purposes of convenience only and shall not constitute a part hereof.

16. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

17. Reasonable Commercial Efforts. When used herein, the term “Reasonable Commercial Efforts” means, with respect to the applicable obligation of the Company, reasonable commercial efforts for similarly situated, publicly traded companies.

18. Provisions for the Benefit of the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing contained in this Warrant shall affect, limit or impair the rights and remedies of Holder (or its Affiliates) in its capacity as a lender to the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries pursuant to the Credit Agreement, or any other agreements or instruments entered into in connection therewith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SWK in exercising its rights as Agent or lender will not have any duty to consider (a) its status as a direct or indirect stockholder of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries, (b) the direct or indirect ownership of the Shares, or (c) any duty it may have to any other direct or indirect stockholder of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries, except as may be required under the applicable loan documents.

19. Amendment and Restatement. This Warrant amends, restates and supersedes in all respects the Original Warrant. The Original Warrant is hereby replaced by this Warrant and the Original Warrant is henceforth void and shall be of no further force or effect.
