PURCHASE PRICE; ADJUSTMENTS; MILESTONES; ROYALTIES

Section 3.1 Purchase Price; Payment. In consideration of the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery by the Seller of the Assets, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchasing Parties shall (a) pay to the Seller an aggregate of $300,000,000, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2(a) (the "Cash Purchase Price"), plus the milestone and royalty payments contemplated by Section 3.3, and (b) assume the Assumed Liabilities. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Purchase Price" shall mean the aggregate amount paid by the Purchasing Parties in consideration of the purchase and assumption by them of the Assets and Assumed Liabilities, including the Cash Purchase Price and all milestone and royalty payments made pursuant to Section 3.3 and following all adjustments made pursuant to Section 3.4 and indemnification payments made pursuant to Article XI.

Section 3.2 Payment at the Closing.

(a) Not later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller and the Purchasing Parties shall mutually agree on a schedule, based upon the Balance Sheet and substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3.2(a) (the "Preliminary Working Capital Schedule"), setting forth the Parties' good faith estimate as of the Closing Date of the current Accounts Receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, Inventory, net of allowance for obsolete Products, and other current assets (including Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets) of the Business that are included in the Assets ("Current Assets") minus the Accounts Payable, Accrued Employee Compensation, Benefits and Other Liabilities and other current liabilities of the Business (other than Taxes payable) that are included in the Assumed Liabilities (the "Current Liabilities") (the results of such calculation, the "Preliminary Working Capital"). The Preliminary Working Capital Schedule shall be prepared using accounting principles, practices and methods consistent with those used in preparing the Balance Sheet with adjustments for changes occurring in the period between the date of the Balance Sheet and the Closing Date. If the amount of the Preliminary Working Capital exceeds the Target Amount, then the Cash Purchase Price shall be increased by the excess. If the amount of Preliminary Working Capital is less than the Target Amount, the Cash Purchase Price shall be decreased by the shortfall. In order to determine the Preliminary Working Capital, the Seller shall provide the Purchasing Parties and their Representatives with all data and financial statements, reasonable access to the Books and Records and any other information reasonably required by the Purchasing Parties and customarily prepared by the Seller prior to the date of this Agreement for the determination of the Preliminary Working Capital.

(b) At the Closing, (i) Xxxx shall pay to the Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Seller not later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price; and (ii) Defiante shall pay to the Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the

Seller not later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, an amount equal to the Cash Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2(a), minus the Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price.

Section 3.3 Milestone and Royalty Payments.

(a) In addition to the amount payable by Defiante pursuant to Section 3.2(b), Defiante shall make the following milestone payments to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts of the Seller designated by the Seller:

(i) $5,000,000 within ten Business Days after Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) receives FDA Approval (including for this purpose any such approval deemed granted 30 days following the submission of any "Supplement—Change Being Effected in 30 Days" applications or similar approvals) for SS Oncaspar®;

(ii) $7,000,000 within ten Business Days after Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) receives FDA Approval for SC Oncaspar®; and

(iii) either (A) $15,000,000, if Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) receives EMEA Approval for SC Oncaspar® on an accelerated, conditional or expedited basis (including any EMEA Approval granted prior to the completion of any additional clinical trial other than the clinical trial for SC Oncaspar® that is ongoing in the United States as of the date of this Agreement), or (B) $10,000,000, if Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) receives EMEA Approval for SC Oncaspar® on a non-accelerated basis, in either case within ten Business Days after the EMEA Approval is received.

(b) In addition to the amount payable by Defiante pursuant to Section 3.2(b) and the milestone payments set forth in Section 3.3(a), Defiante shall make the following royalty payments to the Seller, on a quarterly basis not later than 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter (with payments made in respect of each of the first three calendar quarters of each applicable year constituting Defiante's good faith estimate of the royalty owed for such quarter, and with the payment made in respect of the fourth calendar quarter of such year including a "true up" for the first three calendar quarters' payments, based on actual amounts owed by Defiante in respect of such three calendar quarters relative to amounts paid by Defiante), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts of the Seller designated by the Seller:

(i) With respect to sales of the Products in the United States for each of calendar years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, Defiante shall pay to the Seller 5% of the amount, if any, by which Net Receipts in the United States for each such calendar year exceed the Baseline Amount applicable to the United States.

(ii) With respect to sales of the Products outside the United States: (A) for each of calendar years 2010 and 2011, Defiante shall pay to the Seller 10% of the amount, if any, by which aggregate Net Receipts for all territories outside the United States for each such calendar year exceed the Baseline Amount applicable to such territories, and (B) for each of calendar years 2012, 2013 and 2014, Defiante shall pay to the Seller 5% of the amount, if any, by which aggregate Net Receipts for all territories outside the United States for each such calendar year exceed the Baseline Amount applicable to such territories.

(iii) In connection with any payments made pursuant to this Section 3.3(b), Defiante shall simultaneously deliver to the Seller a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of Net Receipts pursuant to each of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii).

(iv) Defiante agrees that, during calendar years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, it shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates, agents, licensees, sub-licensees and distributors not to, distribute, bundle or otherwise sell any Product in any manner that would reduce the Gross Sales of such Product in favor of other revenue not subject to the royalties set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii).

(v) In the event that, during calendar years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014, either of the Purchasing Parties or any of their Affiliates, directly or indirectly, licenses its rights in any Product such that the full amount of the invoiced sales of such Product are no longer counted as Gross Sales of such Product, (A) such license shall only be made upon arms-length terms and (B) the consideration received in respect of such license shall, for purposes of calculating the royalties owed to the Seller pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), be treated as Net Receipts as of the time of such license.

(vi) Defiante will maintain for a period of three years following the close of each of calendar years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 true and complete books containing an accurate record of all data necessary for the proper computation of royalties under this Agreement. The Seller will have the right, upon written request to Defiante and through the Independent Accounting Firm, to inspect the relevant records of Defiante at any time within such three year period (but not more than once in any calendar year) for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of all payments or charges used to calculate royalties payable under this Agreement; provided that such inspection shall only occur during regular business hours, without unreasonable disruption to the business or operations of Defiante, at such place or places where such books and records are customarily kept. The Parties agree that information furnished as a result of any such inspection will be limited to a written statement by the Independent Accounting Firm to the effect that it has reviewed the books and records of Defiante and either (A) the Gross Sales and Net Receipts claimed by Defiante are in conformity with such books and records and the applicable provisions of this Agreement or (B) setting forth any required adjustments. The

fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in connection with this Section 3.3(b)(vi) will be borne by the Seller, except as provided below. If any such examination shows any underpayment or overpayment, or overcharge or undercharge, a correcting payment or refund will be made within 30 days after receipt of the written statement described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such inspection indicates that, with respect to any calendar year, the amount of royalties that should have been paid in such year by Defiante exceeds the amount actually paid in such year by Defiante by greater than 5%, then Defiante shall bear all reasonable and documented costs associated with such examination (including the costs of the accountants performing the verification and the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of the Seller). The Seller agrees to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to, hold in confidence all information learned in the course of any audit or inspection, except to the extent necessary to reveal such information in order to enforce its rights under this Agreement or pursuant to applicable Law. Defiante will not have any obligation to maintain records pertaining to amounts charged by them or payments due from them under this Agreement beyond such three year periods. The results of each inspection, if any, will be binding on the Parties, absent fraud, bad faith or manifest error by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, until the last payment contemplated by this Section 3.3 has been made to the Seller, the Purchasing Parties and their Affiliates shall not sell, assign, transfer, dispose of or convey any of the Products or the Business to a third party unless such third party has agreed, in manner reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 3.3 and to assume all of the obligations of the Purchasing Parties contemplated by this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3.3 and Section 7.24); provided, however, that Defiante shall guarantee the payment by such third party of amounts payable to the Seller pursuant to this Section 3.3, if and when, and limited to the extent that, such third party defaults under its payment obligations. The Seller shall provide to Defiante (i) notice of the extent to which such third party has defaulted under such payment obligations and (ii) a demand for payment by Defiante of the amount of such obligations, less the amount in respect thereof that such third party has already paid to the Seller through and including the date of such demand. Defiante shall, within 30 days of receipt of demand for payment from the Seller, pay the unpaid amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Seller. Defiante reserves the right to assert defenses that such third party may have to any payment guaranteed hereunder.

(d) If Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) fails to pay in full on or before the date due any royalty or milestone payment that is required to be paid under this Agreement, Defiante (or any successor thereto pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) will also pay to the Seller, on demand, interest on any such amount beginning on such due date at an annual rate (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year) equal to the "base rate" of Citibank, N.A., or any successor thereto, in New York, New York in effect on such due date, to be assessed from the date payment of the amount in question first became due.

Section 3.4 Adjustment to Purchase Price.

(a) Within 45 days following the Closing, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Purchasing Parties a schedule (the "Closing Working Capital Schedule"), in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3.4(a), setting forth a calculation of the Current Assets and Current Liabilities as of the Closing (the "Closing Working Capital"), which shall be prepared on the same basis and using accounting principles, practices and methods consistent with those used to prepare the Preliminary Working Capital Schedule and the Balance Sheet. During such period, the Purchasing Parties shall provide the Seller and its Representatives with all data and financial statements reasonably requested by the Seller, and full access to the Books and Records, any other information, and to any employees to the extent necessary for the Seller to prepare the Closing Working Capital Schedule.

(b) The Purchasing Parties shall have 60 days after the delivery by the Seller to review the Closing Working Capital Schedule. The Seller shall, from and after the Closing Date, provide the Purchasing Parties and their Representatives with all data and financial statements reasonably requested by the Purchasing Parties, and full access to any information, and to any employees to the extent necessary for the Purchasing Parties to review the Closing Working Capital Schedule. In the event that the Purchasing Parties object to any of the items in the Closing Working Capital Schedule, the Purchasing Parties shall, on or before the last day of such 60 day period, inform the Seller in writing (the "Purchasers' Objection"), setting forth a specific description of the basis of the Purchasers' Objection and the adjustments to the Closing Working Capital that the Purchasing Parties believe should be made. Failure to notify the Seller within such 60 day period shall constitute acceptance and approval by the Purchasing Parties of the Closing Working Capital Schedule. If the Purchasing Parties deliver a Purchasers' Objection to the Seller on or before the last day of such 60 day period, the Parties shall then have 15 days to negotiate in good faith to resolve the disputes set forth in the Purchasers' Objection as expeditiously as possible and, if the Parties so resolve such disputes, the Closing Working Capital and the Closing Working Capital Schedule, as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of such disputes, shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. It is acknowledged and agreed that any items in the Closing Working Capital Schedule not set forth in the Purchasers' Objection shall be deemed to be conclusively accepted and approved by the Purchasing Parties.

(c) If the Purchasing Parties and the Seller are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the determination of Closing Working Capital by the expiration of such 15-day period, they shall promptly refer any remaining disagreements to a mutually agreeable nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants (the "Independent Accounting Firm"), which shall determine, solely on the basis of the standard set forth in Section 3.4(a) and only with respect to the remaining disagreements and objections so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Working Capital requires adjustment. Each of the Purchasing Parties and the Seller shall make complete submissions to the Independent Accounting Firm within ten days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm. Any materials submitted by a Party to the Independent Accounting Firm after such ten-day period shall be ignored by the Independent Accounting Firm. The Parties shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to deliver its written determination to the Seller and the Purchasing Parties within 30 days after the expiration of such ten-day period. The

Independent Accounting Firm shall resolve the dispute and determine the Closing Working Capital, not on the basis of an independent review, but only within the disputed range and based on the standard set forth in Section 3.4(a). Such resolution shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Purchasing Parties and the Seller. The Independent Accounting Firm's determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Seller and the Purchasing Parties, absent fraud, bad faith or manifest error by the Independent Accounting Firm. The fees and disbursements of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by the Purchasing Parties, on one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand.

(d) Within ten Business Days following determination of the Closing Working Capital (as may be adjusted by agreement of the Parties or the determination of the Independent Accounting Firm, as the case may be), the Seller or the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, shall make an adjustment payment in an amount equal to the difference between the Preliminary Working Capital and the Closing Working Capital. The adjustment payment will be made by the Seller to the Purchasing Parties to the extent that the Closing Working Capital is less than the Preliminary Working Capital and by the Purchasing Parties to the Seller to the extent that Closing Working Capital is greater than the Preliminary Working Capital. The adjustment payment shall bear interest (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year) from the Closing Date to and including the day immediately prior to payment at the "base rate" of Citibank, N.A., or any successor thereto, in New York, New York in effect on the Closing Date. The adjustment payment shall be treated for all tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price and shall be paid by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to a bank account or accounts designated by the Seller or the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be.

Section 3.5 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Seller and the Purchasing Parties agree that the portion of the Cash Purchase Price allocable to the Manufacturing Assets is $30,000,000 (the "Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller and the Purchasing Parties determine, after the date hereof, that the Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price is not accurate in all material respects, then they shall consult with each other on such price and may mutually agree to amend the amount of the Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price prior to the Closing. The Seller and the Purchasing Parties further agree that the remainder of the Cash Purchase Price and the relevant Assumed Liabilities shall be allocated among the Non-Manufacturing Assets, and the Manufacturing Assets Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Manufacturing Assets, in each case in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. The Cash Purchase Price (which for these purposes shall include the amount of the relevant Assumed Liabilities) shall be allocated among the respective Assets in accordance with schedules that each of Xxxx and Defiante shall provide to the Seller within 90 days after the Closing. Thereafter, the Seller shall have 25 days either to (a) agree with and accept such schedules or (b) in good faith suggest changes to either such schedule and attempt to agree with the respective Purchasing Party as to the contents of the applicable schedule (with the resulting agreed-upon schedule in both instances called the "Allocation Schedule" with respect to the relevant Assets). The Seller, on the one hand, and each of the Purchasing Parties, on the other hand, shall provide each other promptly with any other information required to complete the respective Allocation Schedule. If the Seller and the respective Purchasing Party agree on the applicable Allocation Schedule within 135 days following the Closing, the Seller and such Purchasing Party shall file Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 and any required attachments thereto ("Form 8594"), together with all federal, state and local tax returns, in a manner

consistent with and in accordance with such Allocation Schedule. In addition, the Seller and each Purchasing Party hereby undertake and agree to timely file any information that may be required to be filed pursuant to the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations promulgated under Section 1060(b) of the Code. If the Seller and the respective Purchasing Party are unable to reach such agreement within 135 days following the Closing, the allocation of the applicable portion of the Cash Purchase Price (and the amount of the relevant Assumed Liabilities) shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm within 30 days after it is retained for such purpose, provided that such allocation is reasonable and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder. Within 10 days after filing Form 8594 with the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to this Section 3.5, each Party shall provide the other with a copy of such form as filed.

business. Any reserves for Accounts Receivable in the Financial Statements are calculated in accordance with GAAP and are consistent with past practice. To the Knowledge of the Seller, there is no material contest, claim, defense or right of setoff under any Contract with any account debtor of an Account Receivable relating to the amount or validity of such Account Receivable.

Except in connection with any pending "Supplement—Changes Being Effected in 30 Days" applications, all of the Inventory is good and merchantable and is of a quality and quantity presently usable or salable in the ordinary course of business.

Section 5.27 Indenture. The consummation of the Transactions does not implicate Section 6.8 of that certain indenture, dated as of May 23, 2006, as amended, between the Seller and Wilmington Trust Company, and the Purchasing Parties shall have no obligation in connection with such indenture following the consummation of the Transactions or otherwise.

Section 5.28 Solvency. At the Closing, after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, the Seller and its Affiliates will be Solvent and will have adequate capital to carry on their respective businesses and otherwise meet all of their obligations contained herein, including in Article XI.

ARTICLE VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASING PARTIES

Each of the Purchasing Parties hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants, and, solely with respect to Section 6.4, Sigma-Tau represents and warrants, to the Seller as follows:

Section 6.1 Organization. Each Purchasing Party is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization

and has all requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, except where the failure to be so organized, existing and in good standing or to have such power and authority would not have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.2 Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Necessary Action. Each Purchasing Party has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements by each Purchasing Party and the consummation by the Purchasing Parties of the Transactions has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Purchasing Parties, and no other corporate proceeding on the part of the Purchasing Parties is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or to consummate the Transactions. No vote of, or consent by, the holders of any class or series of stock or Voting Debt issued by either Purchasing Party is necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by either Purchasing Party of this Agreement or the consummation by either of them of the Transactions. This Agreement has been (and, when executed and delivered, the Ancillary Agreements will have been) duly executed and delivered by the Purchasing Parties and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery hereof and thereof by the Seller, this Agreement is (and, when executed and delivered, each of the Ancillary Agreements will be) a valid and binding obligation of the Purchasing Parties, enforceable against the Purchasing Parties in accordance with its terms except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other similar laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (b) the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and would be subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

Section 6.3 Governmental Approvals; Consent; No Violations. Except (x) the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act and (y) any applicable foreign antitrust or competition Law filings, no Consent of any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained or made following the date of this Agreement by the Purchasing Parties in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, except for such Consents that have already been obtained or made. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation by the Purchasing Parties of the Transactions will (a) violate or conflict with any provision of the organizational documents of the Purchasing Parties or (b) conflict with, result in a violation or breach of, or constitute, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, a default or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration under, the terms of any note, bond, indenture, mortgage or agreement to which either Purchasing Party is a party or by which either Purchasing Party or any of its Affiliates is bound, except for any such conflict, violation, breach or default which would not reasonably be likely to result in a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.4 Financial Capacity. An accurate and complete copy of the commitment letter, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, the lending party thereto (the "Lender") has committed to lend the amount set forth therein to Sigma-Tau for the purpose of funding the Transactions (the "Financing"), is attached hereto as Exhibit

H (the "Commitment Letter"). The Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and has not been withdrawn or terminated or otherwise modified in any respect, and, to the knowledge of Sigma-Tau is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Lender. To the knowledge of Sigma-Tau, the Commitment Letter contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Lender to make the Financing available to Sigma-Tau on the terms therein. As of the date of this Agreement, (a) there are no other agreements, side letters or arrangements relating to the Commitment Letter or the Financing that could affect the availability or amount of the Financing (other than this Agreement) and (b) no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Sigma-Tau under any term or condition of the Commitment Letter. Together with available internal funds, the aggregate proceeds from the Financing will be sufficient to consummate the Transactions, including the payment of the Cash Purchase Price and the payment of all associated costs and expenses.

Section 6.5 Brokers or Finders. Except in connection with the Commitment Letter, no broker, finder or investment bank is entitled to any brokerage, finder's fee, or similar fee or commission from the Purchasing Parties or their Affiliates in connection with any of the Transactions.

Section 6.6 Litigation. There are no Legal Proceedings pending against either Purchasing Party or, to the Knowledge of the Purchasing Parties, threatened, at law or in equity, or before any Governmental Entity against either Purchasing Party that, if determined or resolved adversely against such Purchasing Party, would prevent the ability of such Purchasing Party to consummate the Transactions. Neither Purchasing Party is in default under any material Order.

Section 6.7 Solvency. Assuming the accuracy as of the Closing Date of the Seller's representations and warranties and the performance by the Seller of its covenants set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing and after giving effect to the Transactions and the payment of all amounts required to be paid in connection therewith, including the Financing, each Purchasing Party will be Solvent and will have adequate capital to carry on its business and otherwise meet all of its obligations contained herein, including in Article XI.

Section 6.8 Existing Indebtedness. With respect to all obligations of either of the Purchasing Parties for borrowed money or evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or similar instruments, or upon which interest payments are customarily made, the Purchasing Parties are not in default, and no waiver of any such default is in effect, and no event or condition exists (including the consummation of the Transactions) with respect to any such obligations that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause any such obligation to become due and payable before its regularly scheduled date of payment.

Section 6.9 No Vote Required. No vote of the holder of any class or series of stock or Voting Debt issued by either Purchasing Party is necessary to approve the Transactions.

Section 6.10 No Knowledge of Breaches. As of the date of this Agreement, neither Purchasing Party nor any of its respective Affiliates is aware that any representation or warranty of the Seller set forth in Article V is untrue or incorrect.

Section 6.11 Matters Related to Defiante.

(a) True and complete copies of the (i) unaudited balance sheet of Defiante as at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and (ii) unaudited income statement for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2009 and for the years ending December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 (collectively, the "Defiante Financial Statements"), have heretofore been delivered to the Seller. The Defiante Financial Statements (A) have been prepared from and are in accordance with, in all material respects, the books and records of Defiante, and (B) fairly present in all material respects the financial position and results of operations (and changes in financial position, if any) of Defiante as of the dates and for the periods referred to therein (subject to any audit adjustments which are not in the aggregate material and to the absence of footnotes).

(b) At the Closing and following receipt of the Financing, Defiante will have adequate capital to carry on its business and otherwise meet all of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 6.12 No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article VI or in any other document or instrument delivered by the Purchasing Parties pursuant to this Agreement, neither the Purchasing Parties nor any other Person makes any other express or implied representation or warranty on behalf of the Purchasing Parties.

Section 7.2 Investigation of Business. The Seller shall permit the Purchasing Parties and their authorized agents or Representatives, including their independent accountants, to have access during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice to the Facility and Books and Records to review information and documentation relative to the properties, books, contracts, commitments and other records of the Business; provided, however, that any such investigation does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Seller, any of its Affiliates or the Business and provided, further, that prior to the Closing the Purchasing Parties shall not have access to (a) any (i) privileged information or (ii) information that the Seller is prohibited by law or by a confidentiality agreement with a third party from disclosing to the Purchasing Parties (provided that any relevant information that could be disclosed pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be subject to this provision), (b) any information with respect to the Excluded Assets or (c) disclosures and information with respect to the process engaged in by the Seller for the sale of the Business.

Section 7.3 Confidentiality. Until the Closing, the Purchasing Parties and their Representatives will hold in confidence all confidential information (including the information contained in the Data Room and the Schedules or otherwise delivered to the Purchasing Parties or their Representatives pursuant to this Agreement) obtained from or through the Seller or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives in accordance with the provisions of the letter dated August 19, 2008 between Sigma-Tau Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and the Seller (the "Confidentiality Agreement").

Section 7.4 Efforts and Actions to Cause Closing to Occur.

(a) From and after the date of this Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchasing Parties and the Seller shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done and cooperate with each other in order to do, all things necessary, proper or advisable (subject to any applicable Laws) to effect the Closing and consummate the Transactions as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement, which efforts

include the preparation and filing of all forms, registrations and notices required to be filed to consummate the Closing and the Transactions and the taking of such actions as are necessary to obtain any requisite Consents by any third party or Governmental Entity. In addition, neither Party shall take any action or cause or permit any of its Affiliates to take any action after the date of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to materially delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any permission, approval or consent from any Governmental Entity or other Person required to be obtained prior to Closing.

(b) Each Party shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours after receipt) inform the other of, and furnish to the other Party copies of, any communication, correspondence or filing received by such Party from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the Transactions. If any Party or its Affiliate receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any such Governmental Entity with respect to the Transactions, then such Party shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, as soon as reasonably practicable, but after providing the other Party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment, deliver an appropriate response to the applicable Governmental Entity in compliance with such request. Neither Party shall participate, or cause or permit its Affiliates to participate, in any substantive meeting or discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filings, investigations or inquiries concerning this Agreement unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting.

(c) The Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchasing Parties, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, promptly file or cause to be filed all filings with Governmental Entities required in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including (i) filing within 15 Business Days of the date of this Agreement all required filings under the HSR Act, (iii) any applicable foreign antitrust or competition Law filings and (iii) submissions of additional information requested by the FTC, DOJ, state attorney general or any other Governmental Entity. Each of the Purchasing Parties and the Seller further agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, comply with any applicable post-Closing notification or other requirements of any antitrust, trade competition, investment or control reporting or similar Law or regulation of any Governmental Entity with competent jurisdiction. Each of the Purchasing Parties and the Seller agrees to cooperate with and promptly to consult with, to provide any reasonably available information with respect to, and to provide, subject to appropriate confidentiality provisions, copies of all presentations and filings to any Governmental Entity to the other party or its counsel. Each Party agrees not to extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity not to consummate the Transactions except with the prior written consent of the other Party.

(d) In addition to the agreements set forth in Section 7.4(c), the Purchasing Parties and the Seller shall ensure that the Consents from Governmental Entities, including any antitrust clearance by FTC, DOJ, or any state attorney general under the HSR Act, or by the FDA or similar Governmental Entity, are obtained as promptly as practicable, and that any reasonable conditions set forth in or established by any such Consents are wholly satisfied.

Section 7.5 Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality. Recognizing the historically close relationship and interaction between the Business and the Seller's retained

businesses, which have involved the sharing of technical, marketing, strategic and other proprietary information (including Intellectual Property and Commercial Know-How) over many years, and desiring to preserve the value of the respective businesses to the Purchasing Parties and the Seller, the Parties agree that:

(a) From the Closing Date until the date that is the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, the Seller agrees that it shall not, and it shall not cause or permit its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly:

(i) develop, market or sell:

(1) the active pharmaceutical ingredient of any of the Products;

(2) any active pharmaceutical ingredient that has the same mechanism of action as any active pharmaceutical ingredient of any of the Products;

(3) any finished pharmaceutical product that (A) has the same mechanism of action as any of the Products or (B) contains an active pharmaceutical ingredient referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) or (2); or

(4) any finished pharmaceutical product for the same labeled therapeutic indication(s) as of the Closing Date as Abelcet® or Adagen® (the foregoing clauses (1) through (4), collectively, a "Competing Business"); or

(ii) own, manage, operate, join or control, participate or invest in, contribute, assign, transfer or license significant assets (including cash) to, or acquire more than 5% of the capital stock or equity, or a significant portion of the assets, of a Person that engages in a Competing Business; provided, however, that if, following the Closing, the Seller or any of its Affiliates intends to enter or enters into an agreement with any Person pursuant to which such Person acquires control of all or substantially all of the Seller's or such Affiliate's business or assets (whether such acquisition is by means of stock or asset acquisition, merger, consolidation, similar business combination or otherwise), the restrictions contained in this Section 7.5(a) shall not prohibit such sale and shall not apply to any such Person or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Seller shall ensure that such Person and its Affiliates do not utilize the business or assets acquired by such Person from the Seller or such Affiliate to engage in a Competing Business or in a manner that otherwise contravenes this Section 7.5 prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b) Except as set forth in Article VIII, for a period of two years from the Closing Date, neither the Seller nor either Purchasing Party shall, or shall cause or permit its Affiliates to, without the prior written consent or request of the other Party, directly or indirectly solicit for employment or hire or attempt to hire any director, officer or employee of the other Party or such other Party's Affiliates, or attempt to induce any such director, officer or employee

to leave the employ of the other Party; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Seller or either Purchasing Party, or any of their respective Affiliates, from hiring any person whose employment has been terminated prior to the date of this Agreement by either the Seller or either Purchasing Party, or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be. The provisions of this Section 7.5(b) will apply whether such officers, directors or employees are employed by the applicable Party on the date of this Agreement or hereafter.

(i) For a period of ten years from the Closing Date, the Seller covenants that it shall not, and shall not cause or permit its Affiliates to, without the prior written consent of the Purchasing Parties, make use of or otherwise disclose to any Person information of a confidential or proprietary nature regarding the Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business (the "Purchaser Confidential Information"), except to Representatives of the Seller or its Affiliates who need to know such information for purposes of taxes, accounting, pending litigation and other matters necessary in respect of (A) the Seller's ownership of the Assets or (B) the Transactions, unless after consultation with counsel, disclosure is required to be made under applicable Law.

(ii) For a period of ten years from the Closing Date, the Purchasing Parties covenant that they shall not, and shall not cause or permit their Affiliates to, without the prior written consent of the Seller, make use of or otherwise disclose to any Person information of a confidential or proprietary nature regarding the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities (the "Seller Confidential Information"), except to Representatives of the Purchasing Parties or their Affiliates who need to know such information for purposes of taxes, accounting, pending litigation and other matters necessary in respect of the Transactions, unless after consultation with counsel, disclosure is required to be made under applicable Law.

(iii) Each Party acknowledges that neither the Purchaser Confidential Information nor the Seller Confidential Information includes information that (A) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Seller or either Purchasing Party in violation of this Agreement or (B) becomes available to the Seller or either of the Purchasing Parties on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Purchasing Parties or the Seller or their respective Representatives, provided that such source is not, to the Knowledge of the Seller or the Knowledge of the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, a party to a confidentiality agreement with the Seller or the Purchasing Parties or another party.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 7.5(c) or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree that any trade secret of any of them shall remain subject to an obligation of confidentiality and non-disclosure for so long as it remains a trade secret.

(d) Solely for purposes of this Section 7.5, "Affiliate" of a Party shall not include any Person holding less than 25% of the outstanding equity interests of such Party or any Affiliates of such Person.

(e) The Seller and the Purchasing Parties agree that the covenants contained in this Section 7.5 are necessary for the protection of the other Party's reasonable interests, are reasonable in scope, content and duration and are in partial consideration for each Party's agreement to consummate the Transactions.

(f) If it is ever held that the provisions of this Section 7.5 are too onerous in scope or duration or are not necessary for the protection of the Parties, each Party agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction may impose lesser restrictions that such court may consider to be fair, reasonable, necessary or appropriate to properly protect the Parties under the circumstances.

(g) If any court determines that any of the provisions of this Section 7.5, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, such provision or part shall be revised so that it is no longer invalid or unenforceable, as the case may be, but the remainder of this Section 7.5 will not otherwise be affected and shall at all times be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions, whether revised or not revised.

(h) The Seller and the Purchasing Parties recognize and agree that the restrictions set forth this Section 7.5 are being entered into in connection with the sale of the Business to the Purchasing Parties and the Parties would not be entering into this Agreement absent such restrictions and the full commitment of each of the Seller and each Purchasing Party to abide by such restrictions. The Seller and the Purchasing Parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach by the Seller or either Purchasing Party of this Section 7.5 may cause irreparable harm and material loss and damage to the other Party as to which it may not have an adequate remedy at law or in damages. Accordingly, the Seller and the Purchasing Parties acknowledge and agree that the issuance of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable remedy shall be an appropriate remedy for any such breach in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 7.6 Subsequent Actions. In case at any time after the Closing Date any further action is necessary, proper or advisable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each Party shall take, and shall cause its proper officers and directors to take, as soon as is reasonably practicable, all such necessary, proper or advisable actions.

Section 7.7 Taxes.

(a) The Seller shall be liable for, and shall timely pay, any and all Transfer Taxes and similar Taxes, fees, and costs together with any interest thereon, penalties, fines, costs, fees, additions to tax or additional amounts with respect thereto incurred in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, regardless of who may be liable therefore under applicable Law. The Seller shall, at its own expense, properly complete, sign, and timely file any and all required Tax Returns with respect to such taxes (the

"Transfer Tax Returns") and, if required by applicable Law, the Purchasing Parties will join in the execution of any such Transfer Tax Returns.

(b) Each of the Purchasing Parties and the Seller shall provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by the other party in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any taxing authority, or any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes with respect to the Business, Assets, Assumed Liabilities and Excluded Liabilities, and each will retain and provide the requesting party with any records or information which may be relevant to such return, audit or examination, proceedings or determination. Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 7.7(b) or pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or review of any Tax Return or other schedule relating to Taxes shall be kept confidential by the Parties.

(c) The Seller and its Affiliates agree, from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Closing Date, to (i) prepare all Tax Returns relating to the Business or the Assets in a manner that is consistent with the past practices of the Seller and each such Affiliate, as the case may be, with respect to the treatment of items on such Tax Returns except to the extent that any inconsistency would not or may not materially increase either Purchasing Party's liability for Taxes for any period; (ii) refrain from incurring any material liability for Taxes relating to the Business or the Assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) refrain from entering into any settlement or closing agreement with a taxing authority that increases or may increase the Tax liability of the Seller or such Affiliate relating to the Business or the Assets for any period without the consent of the Purchasing Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 7.8 Financing.

(a) Sigma-Tau shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letter; (ii) negotiate definitive agreements with respect to the Financing on the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letter (or on terms no less favorable to Sigma-Tau (including with respect to the conditionality thereof) than the terms and conditions in the Commitment Letter); (iii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions applicable to it and its Affiliates, if any, in such definitive agreements that are within its or its Affiliates, if applicable, control; (iv) upon satisfaction of such conditions (and all of the other conditions contained in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 (other than Section 9.2(d)), consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing, accept the funds comprising the Financing and transfer such funds (whether by contribution or loan or otherwise) to the Purchasing Parties; and (v) comply with its obligations set forth in the Commitment Letter. Sigma-Tau shall keep the Seller informed on a reasonably current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of the Financing and shall promptly provide to the Seller appropriate notice when the definitive binding documents related to the Financing have been executed (which notice will include reasonable detail regarding any terms to the Financing that are inconsistent with those contained in the Commitment Letter). Sigma-Tau shall have the right from time to time to enter into any amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of, waive any of its rights under, or terminate, the Commitment Letter (other than with respect to the conditions thereto), substitute other debt or equity financing for all or any portion of the Financing from the same and/or alternate funding sources (on terms no less favorable to Sigma-Tau with respect to the conditionality thereof), or

reduce the amount of the Financing, in any case in its reasonable discretion, but only if such amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of, waiver of any provision contained in, or termination of, the Commitment Letter, substitution of other financing or reduction of the Financing does not, and would not reasonably be expected to, prevent or delay the Closing or add any additional or greater conditionality to the funding of the Financing. Sigma-Tau shall keep the Seller informed on a prompt basis and in reasonable detail if it takes any of the actions referred to in the preceding sentence. Sigma-Tau shall give the Seller prompt notice of any termination of the Commitment Letter.

(b) If any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Commitment Letter, the Purchasing Parties shall (i) immediately notify the Seller and (ii) use, as promptly as practicable, their commercially reasonable efforts to arrange and obtain alternative financing from alternative sources, on terms and conditions that are customary and commercially reasonable, in an amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions in a timely manner.

(c) The Seller shall provide, and shall cause its Affiliates, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of its and their respective Representatives to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by Sigma-Tau or the Purchasing Parties in connection with the Financing or any replacement, amended, modified or alternative financing, including (i) providing accurate information, including financial information, relating to the Business to the extent reasonably requested by Sigma-Tau or the Purchasing Parties to assist in the preparation of customary information documents to be used for the completion of the Financing as contemplated by the Commitment Letter, (ii) using its reasonable best efforts, as appropriate, to have its independent accountants provide their reasonable cooperation and assistance, and (iii) cooperating reasonably with the relevant financing parties' due diligence, to the extent customary and reasonable and to the extent not unreasonably interfering with the Business or the Seller's other businesses.

(e) In the event that the Commitment Letter is amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, including if Sigma-Tau or the Purchasing Parties substitute

(a) The Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, and the Purchasing Parties shall assist the Seller in its efforts, to obtain all third party Consents required to assign or transfer the Assets to the Purchasing Parties pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In connection with seeking such Consents, the Seller shall keep the Purchasing Parties informed of all material developments and shall, at either Purchasing Party's request, include such Purchasing Party in any discussions or communications with any parties whose Consent is sought hereunder. Such Consents shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Purchasing Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall not be obligated to pay, and the Seller shall not pay, any fees or penalties to any Person in connection with obtaining any third party Consent.

The Seller shall hold or cause to be held each such Non-Assignable Asset, as of and from the Closing Date, in trust for the benefit of the applicable Purchasing Party and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by such Purchasing Party in the name of the Seller or the applicable Affiliate of the Seller, as the case may be, and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for the account of such Purchasing Party. The Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, as of and from the Closing Date, authorizes the applicable Purchasing Party, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets, at such Purchasing Party's expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of the Seller or its Affiliates under the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets. The Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken such actions in the name of the applicable Purchasing Party as such Purchasing Party may reasonably request to (x) provide such Purchasing Party with the benefits of the Non-Assignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Non-Assignable Assets, and the Seller shall promptly pay or cause to be promptly paid over to such Purchasing Party all money or other consideration received by the Seller or such Affiliate in respect of the Non-Assignable Assets and (y) enforce, at the request of such Purchasing Party, and at the expense and for the account of such Purchasing Party, any rights of the Seller or the applicable Affiliate of the Seller arising from such Non-Assignable Assets against the other party or parties thereto (including the right to elect to terminate any such Non-Assignable Asset in accordance with the terms thereof). The Seller shall not take any action (unless requested in writing by the applicable Purchasing Party or required by applicable Law) that would limit or restrict or terminate the benefits to such Purchasing Party of any Non-Assignable Asset. With respect to any Non-Assignable Asset as to which the necessary Consent for the assignment or transfer to the applicable Purchasing Party is obtained following the Closing, the Seller, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of such Consent, shall transfer such Non-Assignable Asset to such Purchasing Party by execution and delivery of an instrument of conveyance reasonably satisfactory to such Purchasing Party. With respect to any Permit that cannot be assigned or transferred to the applicable Purchasing Party, the Seller agrees to file such applications, notices, certifications, reports or other information as shall be necessary to convey the benefits of each such Permit to such Purchasing Party on and following the Closing Date, or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date if such conveyance cannot by Law by accomplished before or as of Closing.

Following the Closing, the Purchasing Parties shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days following the Closing Date, cease to, and obtain all Consents required to enable them to cease to (i) make any use of the Enzon Xxxx and Logo, and (ii) hold themselves out as having any affiliation with the Seller or any of its Affiliates, other than as required by applicable Law.

Any use by the Purchasing Parties or any of their Affiliates of the Enzon Xxxx and Logo as permitted in this Section 7.14(a) is subject to such Person's use of the Enzon Xxxx and Logo in a form and manner, and with standards of quality, substantially similar to (but in no event less stringent than) those in effect for the Enzon Xxxx and Logo as of the Closing Date. The Purchasing Parties and their Affiliates shall not use the Enzon Xxxx and Logo in a manner that may reflect negatively on such name and marks or on the Seller or its Affiliates. The Seller shall have the right to terminate the foregoing license, effective upon 30 days written notice to the Purchasing Parties, if the Purchasing Parties or their Affiliates fail to comply with the foregoing terms and conditions or otherwise fail to comply with any reasonable direction of the Seller in relation to the use of the Enzon Xxxx and Logo, and do not cure such failure to the Seller's reasonable satisfaction within 30 days after such notice is provided to the Purchasing Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchasing Parties and their Affiliates shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and any of its Affiliates for any and all Losses arising from or relating to any use by the Purchasing Parties or any of their Affiliates of the Enzon Xxxx and Logo in violation of this Section 7.14(a).

Section 7.15 Publicity. Prior to the Closing Date, neither Party shall, nor shall they permit their respective Affiliates or Representatives to, issue any press release or otherwise make any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Transactions without first consulting with the other Party, unless such release or statements are reasonably determined to be required by applicable Law or the rules of any applicable stock exchange.

(a) The Purchasing Parties and the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause certain Contracts that are primarily but not exclusively related to the Business and are set forth on Schedule 7.17(a) (the "Shared Contracts") to be split into separate contracts between the appropriate third party and the Seller (with respect to the portion of the Shared Contracts that does not relate to the Business) or the applicable Purchasing Party (with respect to the portion of the Shared Contracts that relates to the Business). The Seller and the Purchasing Parties agree to cooperate and provide reasonable assistance prior to and for a period of six months following the Closing to effect such separation. In the event and to the extent that the Purchasing Parties and the Seller are unable to obtain any Consent or amendment required to separate the Shared Contracts, (i) the Seller and the applicable Purchasing Party shall use their commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to separate such Shared Contracts as promptly as practicable and (ii) if such separation is not obtained, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to effect any lawful arrangement designed to provide for such Purchasing Party the benefits after Closing that it would have received, and to subject such Purchasing Party directly to the Liabilities thereunder, as if such Shared Contracts had been separated and acquired by such Purchasing Party as an Asset.

(b) With respect to those Shared Contracts set forth on Schedule 7.17(b), upon the reasonable request of the Purchasing Parties, the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce or assign upon request such Shared Contracts on behalf of the

Purchasing Parties against the other parties thereto in accordance with their terms. The Purchasing Parties shall reimburse the Seller for all reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Seller in complying with this Section 7.17(b).

The Seller covenants and agrees that none of the information with respect to the Seller or any of its Affiliates to be included in the Proxy Statement will, at the time of the mailing of the Proxy Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, or at the time of the Stockholders' Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and that the Proxy Statement will comply as to form in all material respects with the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchasing Parties, on the other hand, shall promptly (i) notify the other of the receipt of any comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement and of any request by the SEC for amendments of, or supplements to, the Proxy Statement, and (ii) provide the other with copies of all filings made with the SEC and all correspondence between the Seller and the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement. The Seller and the Purchasing Parties shall cooperate with each other and use their respective reasonable best efforts to resolve all comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement as promptly as practicable.

(d) Mailing of Proxy Statement; Amendments. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Proxy Statement has been cleared by the SEC, the Seller shall mail the Proxy Statement to the holders of Seller Common Stock as of the record date established for the Stockholders' Meeting. If at any time prior to the Stockholders' Meeting any event or circumstance relating to the Seller or the Purchasing Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors should be discovered by the Seller or the Purchasing Parties that, pursuant to the Exchange Act, should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Proxy Statement, such Party shall promptly inform the other. The Seller and each Purchasing Party each agree to correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement that shall have become false or misleading.

Section 7.20 No Solicitation of Competing Proposal.

(a) From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, and except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the Seller agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall, and that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly facilitate or encourage any Competing Proposal, (ii) participate in any negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any material nonpublic information with respect to, any Competing Proposal, (iii) engage in discussions with any person with respect to any Competing Proposal, (iv) approve or recommend any Competing Proposal or (v) enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any agreement or commitment providing for any Competing Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 7.20(a), if the Seller receives an unsolicited Competing Proposal that the Board of Directors of the Seller determines, in good faith, after consultation with the Seller's outside legal and financial advisors, (i) constitutes a Superior Proposal or (ii) could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal, the Seller may take the following actions: (x) furnish nonpublic information to the

third party making such Competing Proposal, if, and only if, prior to so furnishing such information, the Seller receives from the third party an executed confidentiality agreement with terms that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable to the Seller than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and (y) engage in discussions or negotiations with the third party with respect to the Competing Proposal; provided, however, that as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Seller taking such actions as described in clauses (x) and (y) above, the Seller shall (A) provide written notice to the Purchasing Parties of such Competing Proposal and (B) provide to the Purchasing Parties any information provided to such third party that was not previously provided to the Purchasing Parties.

(c) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 7.20(a), if the Board of Directors of the Seller has concluded in good faith after consultation with the Seller's outside legal and financial advisors that (i) a Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and (ii) the failure of the Board of Directors of the Seller to change, qualify, withhold or withdraw the Seller Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the directors' exercise of their fiduciary duties to the Seller's stockholders under applicable Law, then, in either case, the Board of Directors of the Seller may change, qualify, withhold or withdraw the Seller Recommendation in a manner adverse to the Purchasing Parties (a "Change of Recommendation"), provided that, prior to making its Change of Recommendation, (i) the Seller shall have given the Purchasing Parties at least four Business Days written notice of its proposed Change of Recommendation, the reasons therefor and the terms of the Superior Proposal at issue, and (ii) the Board of Directors of the Seller shall have taken into account any revised proposal made by the Purchasing Parties to the Seller following such four Business Days notice and shall have again concluded in good faith after consultation with its outside legal and financial advisors to make such Change of Recommendation. Following such affirmation of such Change of Recommendation, the Board of Directors of the Seller may cause the Seller or any of its Affiliates to enter into a binding written agreement with respect to the applicable Superior Proposal (a "Superior Proposal Agreement") and terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1(h).

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Seller or the Board of Directors of the Seller from (i) disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if the Board of Directors of the Seller has reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with any applicable Law; provided, that disclosures under this Section 7.20(d) shall not be a basis, in themselves, for the Purchasing Parties to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(f), but such disclosures shall not otherwise affect the rights of the Purchasing Parties contained in this Agreement.

(e) The Seller shall promptly (and in no event later than 48 hours after receipt) notify the Purchasing Parties of any Competing Proposal it or any of its Representatives receives, including in such notice the name of the Person submitting the Competing Proposal and the material terms and conditions of the Competing Proposal (including, if applicable, copies of any written requests, proposals or offers, including term sheets and proposed agreements) and thereafter the Seller shall keep the Purchasing Parties informed, on a reasonably prompt and current basis (which shall be considered in light of the circumstances of such proposal or offer

and the time by which the Purchasing Parties have the opportunity to respond), of the status and terms of any such Competing Proposal (including any amendments thereto). The Seller shall not enter into any Contract with any Person that prohibits the Seller from complying with this Section 7.20(e). It is understood that if the Seller receives a Competing Proposal, upon notification to the Purchasing Parties of such Competing Proposal it shall also disclose to the Purchasing Parties whether or not it intends to publicly disclose such Competing Proposal and, if the Seller does not publicly disclose such Competing Proposal (or indicate that such Competing Proposal will be disclosed in the Proxy Statement) within five Business Days of being requested to do so by the Purchasing Parties, then the Purchasing Parties may publicly disclose such Competing Proposal.

To the extent that a Transferred Employee commences participation in any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by Xxxx or any of its Affiliates (each such plan, program or arrangement, a "Purchaser Plan") following the Closing Date, Xxxx shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the applicable Purchaser Plan to, (i) credit each Transferred Employee's service with the Seller or any Affiliate or any predecessor employers thereto, to the extent credited under the analogous Enzon Benefit Plan, as service with Xxxx for all purposes under such Purchaser Plan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Transferred Employees be entitled to any credit to the extent that it would result in duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service, (ii) cause any and all pre-existing condition limitations, eligibility waiting periods, active employment requirements and requirements to show evidence of good health under such Purchaser Plan, to the extent that such conditions, exclusions and waiting periods would have been waived or satisfied under the analogous Enzon Benefit Plan in which such Transferred Employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date, to be waived with respect to such Transferred Employee and such individual's spouse and eligible dependents who become participants in such Purchaser Plan and (iii) give credit for or otherwise take into account under such Purchaser Plan the out-of-pocket expenses and annual expense limitation amounts paid by each Transferred Employee under the analogous Enzon Benefit Plan for the year in which the Closing Date occurs.

(b) Notwithstanding the generality of Section 8.2(a), during the one year period following the Closing, each Transferred Employee who is not party to an individual agreement with Xxxx providing for severance pay shall be entitled to severance pay no less favorable than those set forth on Schedule 8.2(b).

(c) Xxxx shall designate a Purchaser Plan that is a tax-qualified defined contribution plan of Xxxx or one of its Affiliates (such plan(s), the "Purchasers' Savings Plan") that either (i) currently provides for the receipt from Transferred Employees of "eligible rollover distributions" (as such term is defined under Section 402 of the Code) or (ii) shall be amended as soon as practicable following the Closing Date to provide for the receipt from the Transferred Employees of eligible rollover distributions. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, (x) Xxxx shall provide the Seller with such documents and other information as the Seller shall reasonably request to assure itself that the Purchasers' Savings Plan provides for the receipt of eligible rollover distributions and (y) the Seller shall provide Xxxx with such documents and other information as Xxxx or its Affiliates shall reasonably request to assure itself or themselves that the accounts of the Transferred Employees would be eligible rollover distributions. Each Transferred Employee who is a participant in the Enzon 401(k) Plan shall be given the opportunity to receive a distribution of his or her account balance and shall be given the opportunity to elect to "roll over" such account balance to the Purchasers' Savings Plan, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of such plan(s) and applicable Law. The Seller shall provide Xxxx with copies of such personnel and other records of the Seller pertaining to the Transferred Employees and such records of any agent or representative of the Seller pertaining to the Transferred Employees and such records of any agent or representative of the Seller, in each case pertaining to the Enzon 401(k) Plan and as Xxxx may reasonably request in order to administer and manage the accounts and assets rolled over to the Purchasers' Savings Plan.

(d) As of the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide an accounting to Xxxx of the account balances of each participant in the Seller's GreatWest Healthcare Flexible Spending Accounts program (the "Flex Plan"). As of the Closing, Xxxx shall assume liability for such account balances, the aggregate amount of which shall be set forth on the Closing Working Capital Schedule and included in the calculation of Accrued Employee Compensation, Benefits and Other Liabilities. Xxxx shall continue to provide reimbursements to such participants in accordance with the terms of the Flex Plan through the end of 2010, based on the accounting provided by the Seller and as if Xxxx (or its Affiliate, where applicable) were the sponsor of the Flex Plan.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Xxxx shall be solely responsible for, and shall indemnify the Seller and its Affiliates or Representatives for, all obligations and Liabilities (including legal costs of collection, attorneys' fees and other costs of defense) that the Seller and its Affiliates or Representatives may incur that arise from (i) the hiring, employment and discharge of any Transferred Employee by Xxxx or any of its Affiliates or related entities following the Closing; (ii) all severance entitlements and other termination costs or entitlements due to or on behalf of any Transferred Employee resulting from the termination of such individual's employment by Xxxx following the Closing; and (iii) medical, dental, life, disability and any other welfare benefit plans to the extent arising out of services provided following the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Xxxx shall be responsible, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Purchaser Plans,

for (A) any medical or dental expenses incurred after the Closing Date with respect to any Transferred Employee or dependent thereof who as of the Closing Date is hospitalized or who has previously begun a course of treatment that continues following the Closing Date and (B) payment of short-term or long-term disability benefits to which Transferred Employees may become entitled under a Purchaser Plan or as otherwise required by Law, provided that the condition that gave rise to the salary continuation obligation occurred following the Closing Date. The Seller shall be solely responsible for, and shall indemnify the Purchasing Parties and their Affiliates or Representatives for, all obligations and Liabilities (including legal costs of collection, attorneys fees and other costs of defense) that the Purchasing Parties and their Affiliates or Representatives may incur, which arise from (x) the Enzon Benefit Plans, including severance obligation under any employment agreement or severance plan, (y) any actions taken by the Seller or any of its Affiliates or related entities with respect to the hiring, employment and discharge of any Business Employee who is not a Transferred Employee and (z) any actions taken by the Seller or any of its Affiliates or related entities during all periods prior to the Closing or on the Closing Date with respect to the hiring and employment and termination of employment by the Seller or its Affiliates or related entities of any Transferred Employee. The Seller acknowledges that, except as set forth in Section 8.2(c) and Section 8.2(d), no portion of the assets of any plan, fund, program or arrangement, written or unwritten, heretofore sponsored or maintained by the Seller or its Affiliates (and no amount attributable to any such plan, fund, program or arrangement) shall be transferred to Xxxx, and agrees that Xxxx shall not be required to continue any such plan, fund, program or arrangement. The Seller shall be responsible for any and all compensation, benefits and severance payments to any Business Employee who is not a Transferred Employee. This Article VIII is not intended to, and does not, create any rights or obligations to or for the benefit of anyone other than the Purchasing Parties and the Seller.

to the Closing Date, whether before or after any approval of the Transactions by the stockholders of the Seller, as follows:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Purchasing Parties and the Seller;

(b) by either the Purchasing Parties or the Seller by written notice to the other Parties if (i) the Closing shall not have occurred on or before June 30, 2010 (the "Termination Date") (which date shall be extended for the duration of any applicable review period in connection with the HSR Act, for so long as no Party is in default under this Agreement, and all other conditions precedent to the Closing (other than those that are satisfied by action taken at the Closing) have been satisfied, waived or are reasonably expected to be satisfied before the expiration of such review period) and (ii) the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(b) shall not have breached in any material respect its obligations under this Agreement in any manner that shall have proximately caused the failure to consummate the Transactions on or before such date;

(c) by either the Purchasing Parties or the Seller by written notice to the other Party if any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an Order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions, and such Order or other action shall have become final and non-appealable, provided that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) shall have used its reasonable best efforts (with the cooperation of the other Party(ies)) to remove such Order or appeal diligently such other action; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(c) shall not be available to a Party if the issuance of such final, non-appealable Order was primarily due to the failure of such Party to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement;

(d) by either the Purchasing Parties or the Seller by written notice to the other Party, if the Requisite Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained, whether as a result of a Change of Recommendation or otherwise, at a duly held Stockholders' Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement thereof;

(e) by the Seller, if Sigma-Tau or either Purchasing Party shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 9.3(a) or Section 9.3(b) and (ii) cannot be cured on or before the Termination Date (as the same may be extended), provided that the Seller shall have given the Purchasing Parties and Sigma-Tau written notice, delivered at least 30 days prior to such termination, stating the Seller's intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) and the basis for such termination; provided, however, that if the 30 calendar day period referred to in Section 10.1(i) shall have expired without Sigma-Tau or either of the Purchasing Parties obtaining the Financing (or any alternate financing) and thereafter the Seller terminates this Agreement as a result of a breach of Section 7.8(a), Section 7.8(b) or Section 12.17, then (x) the 30 day notice referred to in this Section 10.1(e) need not be given and the condition set forth in Section 9.2(d) shall be irrevocably deemed to be incapable of being satisfied and (y) neither Sigma-Tau nor either of the Purchasing Parties may assert the failure of such condition to be satisfied as a defense (or similar defense, excuse or claim of non-breach) in

any Legal Proceeding by the Seller asserted against Sigma-Tau or either of the Purchasing Parties related to a breach of Section 7.8(a), Section 7.8(b) or Section 12.17;

(f) by the Purchasing Parties, if the Seller shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.2(b) and (ii) cannot be cured on or before the Termination Date (as the same may be extended), provided that the Purchasing Parties shall have given the Seller written notice, delivered at least 30 days prior to such termination, stating the Purchasing Parties' intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(f) and the basis for such termination;

(g) by the Purchasing Parties, if (i) the Board of Directors of the Seller shall have made a Change of Recommendation, (ii) the Seller or its Board of Directors shall have approved, recommended, or entered into a Superior Proposal Agreement, (iii) prior to the Seller obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Vote, a tender or exchange offer with respect to the Seller Common Stock is commenced by any third party and, within ten Business Days of the commencement of such tender or exchange offer, the Board of Directors of the Seller shall not have recommended to the Seller's stockholders that they reject such tender or exchange offer; (iv) the Seller shall have failed to make the Seller Recommendation; or (v) the Seller or its Board of Directors publicly announces its intentions to take any of the foregoing actions in this Section 10.1(g);

(h) by the Seller, subject to the provisions of Section 7.20(c), if the Seller enters into a Superior Proposal Agreement; or

(i) by the Seller, if the condition precedent set forth in Section 9.2(d) is not satisfied on or before the 30th calendar day after all of the other conditions set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 shall have been satisfied or waived.

Section 10.2 Termination Fee. In the event that:

(a) (i) a Competing Proposal made after the execution and delivery of this Agreement is publicly disclosed (and prior to the termination of this Agreement) and is not publicly withdrawn at the time of the Stockholders' Meeting, (ii) this Agreement is terminated by the Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(b) (but only if at such time the Purchasing Parties would not be prohibited from terminating this Agreement by application of Section 10.1(b)(ii)) or by the Purchasing Parties or the Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(d) and (iii) within one year after such termination, any definitive agreement providing for a Qualifying Transaction shall have been entered into (and thereafter consummated) with the Person or any Affiliate thereof who made the Competing Proposal that was existing at the time of the Stockholders' Meeting;

(b) this Agreement is terminated by the Purchasing Parties pursuant to Section 10.1(g); or

then the Seller shall pay to Defiante a fee of $15,000,000 in cash (the "Seller Termination Fee"), such payment to be made in the case of (x) Section 10.2(a), upon consummation of such Qualifying Transaction, or (y) Section 10.2(b) or Section 10.2(c), within two Business Days after the termination of this Agreement, it being understood that in no event shall the Seller be required to pay the Seller Termination Fee on more than one occasion. After such payment is made, the Seller shall have no further liability to the Purchasing Parties with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions. Any such payment shall be reduced by any amount required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Tax Law.

Section 10.3 Reverse Termination Fee. If this Agreement is terminated by the Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(i), then, within two Business Days after such termination, Defiante shall pay to the Seller a fee of $15,000,000 in cash (the "Purchaser Termination Fee"). After such payment is made, neither Purchasing Party nor Sigma-Tau shall have any further liability to the Seller with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions. Any such payment shall be reduced by any amount required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Tax Law.

Section 10.4 Sole Remedy. The Purchasing Parties and the Seller agree that the agreements contained in Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 are an integral part of this Agreement and the Transactions and that, without such agreement, neither Party would have entered into this Agreement. The Purchasing Parties and the Seller further agree that neither the Purchaser Termination Fee nor the Seller Termination Fee constitutes a penalty, but in each case is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the non-paying Party, in the circumstances in which such amounts are payable, for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Except in cases of fraud, receipt of payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee (whether directly from the Purchasing Parties or pursuant to Section 12.17) or the Seller Termination Fee, as the case may be, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Party receiving such payment and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, stockholders, general or limited partners, managers, members, representatives or assignees, in each case whether former, current or future (collectively, the "Related Persons"), for any loss or damage suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated. Upon payment of the Seller Termination Fee or Purchaser Termination Fee, as the case may be, the Party paying such fee shall have no further liability to any other Party or its Affiliates or Related Persons hereunder, except in cases of fraud.

Section 10.5 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement by any Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination of the Transactions is made, and there shall be no liability or obligation thereafter on the part of the Purchasing Parties or the Seller, except that Section 5.21 (Brokers or Finders Fee with respect to the Seller), Section 6.5 (Brokers or Finders Fee with respect to the Purchasing Parties), Section 7.3 (Confidentiality), Section 10.2 (Termination Fee), Section 10.3 (Reverse Termination Fee), Section 10.4 (Sole Remedy), Section 10.5 (Effect of Termination), Article XI and Section 12.1 (Fees and Expenses) of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive the termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided

in Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, as the case may be, and Section 10.4, nothing in this Section 10.5 shall relieve the Purchasing Parties or the Seller of any liability for any breach of this Agreement and, upon any termination of this Agreement, the Seller or the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, shall be fully liable for any and all damages of the other Party as a result of such breach.

ARTICLE XI

Section 11.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this Article XI, the representations and warranties of the Parties shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Seller or the Purchasing Parties, for a period of 12 months after the Closing Date, except that the representation and warranties contained in (i) Section 5.13 (Environmental Matters) shall survive for a period of 24 months after the Closing Date, (ii) Section 5.12 (Employee Benefit Plans) and Section 5.16 (Tax Matters) shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (taking into account any extensions thereof), and (iii) Section 5.1 (Existence), Section 5.2 (Authorization), Section 5.3 (Binding Agreement), Section 5.21 (Brokers or Finders), Section 6.1 (Organization), Section 6.2 (Authorization; Validity of Agreement; Necessary Action) and Section 6.5 (Brokers or Finders) (collectively, the "Fundamental Representations") shall survive indefinitely; provided, however, that claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2(a) or Section 11.3(a), as applicable, first asserted in writing with specificity within such period shall not be extinguished after such period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all covenants and agreements of the Parties that by their terms contemplate actions following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. All other covenants and agreements of the Parties shall not survive this Closing and shall thereupon terminate, except that claims for indemnification in respect of any breach thereof shall survive for a period of 12 months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2(a) or Section 11.3(a), as applicable, first asserted in writing with specificity within such period shall not be extinguished after such period.

Section 11.2 Indemnification by the Seller.

(a) In the event the Closing occurs, the Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold the Purchasing Parties, any Affiliate of the Purchasing Parties or their respective current or future Representatives, controlling persons, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, "Purchaser Indemnitees") harmless from and against and in respect of any and all actual losses, liabilities, damages, claims, suits, proceedings, judgments, settlements and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by any such Purchaser Indemnitee (hereinafter "Purchaser Losses") (other than Purchaser Losses for Taxes for which indemnification is provided pursuant to Section 11.5) arising out of or in connection with (i) any breach by the Seller of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article V, (ii) any breach by the Seller of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement, (iii) the Excluded Assets, (iv) the Excluded Liabilities and (v) the matters set forth on Schedule 11.2.

(b) The foregoing obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees set forth in Section 11.2(a) shall be subject to each of the following limitations:

(i) no indemnification for Purchaser Losses asserted against the Seller under Section 11.2(a)(i) shall be required unless and until the cumulative amount of such Purchaser Losses equals or exceeds $2,000,000 (the "Deductible"), at which time the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover all Purchaser Losses, as finally determined, in excess of $1,000,000, and in no event shall Purchaser Losses include special, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, diminution in value, lost profits or lost business opportunity, except in respect of third party claims;

(ii) the Seller's aggregate liability to Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 11.2(a)(i) for Purchaser Losses shall not exceed 15% of the Cash Purchase Price in the aggregate (the "Cap");

(iii) there shall be no indemnification for the Purchaser Losses as a result of liabilities disclosed in the Closing Working Capital Schedule; and

(iv) no claim for misrepresentation or breach of warranty or a failure to comply with any covenant shall be made by the Purchasing Parties under this Section 11.2 if such fact or event was disclosed by the Seller on a schedule or certificate delivered to the Purchasing Parties at or prior to the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in Section 11.2(b)(i) and Section 11.2(b)(ii) shall not apply to breaches of any Fundamental Representation made by the Seller or any representation or warranty contained in Section 5.12, Section 5.13 or Section 5.16. The Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification for breaches of the Seller's representations, warranties, covenants or agreements notwithstanding whether any Representative of any such Purchaser Indemnitee knew or had reason to know of such breach and regardless of any investigation by such Purchaser Indemnitee or its Representatives.

(c) If the Closing occurs, the indemnity provided in this Section 11.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchasing Parties and the Purchaser Indemnitees against the Seller at law or in equity for any matter covered by Section 11.2(a), provided the Purchasing Parties shall be entitled to specific performance under Section 12.13 for any breach by the Seller following the Closing of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

Section 11.3 Indemnification by the Purchasing Parties.

(a) In the event the Closing occurs, the Purchasing Parties shall defend, indemnify and hold the Seller, any Affiliate of the Seller or their respective current or future Representatives, controlling persons, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the "Seller Indemnitees") harmless from and against and in respect of any and all actual losses, liabilities, damages, claims, suits, proceedings, judgments, settlements and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by any such Seller Indemnitee (hereinafter the "Seller Losses" and

together with the Purchaser Losses, "Losses") arising out of or in connection with (i) any breach by either Purchasing Party of any of the representations and warranties contained in Article VI as of the Closing Date (except to the extent they refer to an earlier date, then as of that earlier date), (ii) any breach by either Purchasing Party of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement, (iii) the ownership, operation or use of the Business or the Assets as of and after the Closing, and (iv) the Assumed Liabilities.

(b) The foregoing obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnities set forth in Section 11.3(a) shall be subject to each of the following limitations:

(i) no indemnification for Seller Losses asserted against the Purchasing Parties under Section 11.3(a)(i) shall be required unless and until the cumulative amount of such Seller Losses equals or exceeds the Deductible, at which time the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover all Seller Losses, as finally determined, in excess of $1,000,000, and in no event shall Seller Losses include special, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, diminution in value, lost profits or lost business opportunity, except in respect of third party claims; and

(c) If the Closing occurs, the indemnity provided in this Section 11.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Seller and the Seller Indemnitees against the Purchasing Parties at law or in equity for any matter covered by Section 11.3(a) , provided the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance under Section 12.13 for any breach by the Purchasing Parties following the Closing of any of their respective covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

Section 11.4 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) All claims for indemnification by a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee (an "Indemnified Party") (except for claims for tax indemnification, which are addressed in Section 11.5(e)) shall be asserted and resolved as set forth in this Section 11.4. As soon as is reasonably practicable after an Indemnified Party or any of its respective Affiliates, Representatives, successors and permitted assigns, as the case may be, becomes aware of any claim for which it is entitled to recover Losses under this Article XI, such Indemnified Party shall notify the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing (the "Claim Notice"), which shall describe the claim in reasonable detail and shall specify, in reasonable detail, the facts

underlying the nature of the claim, the basis for indemnification and the estimated amount of Losses under such claim. The failure of any Indemnified Party to promptly give any Indemnifying Party such Claim Notice shall not preclude such Indemnified Party from obtaining indemnification under this Article XI, except to the extent that such Indemnified Party's failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party's rights or materially increased its Liabilities hereunder.

(b) In the event that any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party may be liable to any Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than 10 days following such Indemnified Party's receipt of such claim or demand, provide the Indemnifying Party with a Claim Notice.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days from the personal delivery or receipt of the Claim Notice (the "Notice Period") to notify the Indemnified Party: (i) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim or demand; and (ii) in the case of a third party claim, whether or not it will defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand. If the Indemnifying Party declines to defend the claim or demand, then the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending such claim or demand shall be a liability of, and shall be paid by, the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnifying Party does not dispute its liability or if the Indemnifying Party does dispute its liability and the resolution of such dispute is against the Indemnifying Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party, it shall notify the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it will defend and accepts its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party shall defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense. If any Indemnified Party desires to participate in any such defense, it may do so at its sole cost and expense, provided, however, that if, in the view of counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party to defend the third party claim, an ethical or financial conflict of interest exists between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, the reasonable costs and expenses of one counsel to the Indemnified Party will be paid by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense, the Indemnified Party shall not settle a claim or demand for which it is indemnified by the Indemnifying Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any such claim or demand on a basis that would result in the imposition of an Order that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party, but if such consent is unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed the Indemnified Party shall be liable to the Indemnifying Party for all additional liability or cost incurred by the Indemnifying Party as a result thereof. The Indemnified Party will diligently and fully cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, its counsel, experts and other relevant persons in the defense of any claim or demand including providing access, during normal business hours, to relevant facilities and to business records and other documents, and shall permit them to consult with the employees and counsel and other relevant persons of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall use its reasonable efforts to defend all such claims.

Section 11.5 Tax Matters.

(a) The Purchasing Parties shall have the sole right to control, defend, settle, compromise or contest any Tax Contest relating to a Tax Return of the Purchasing Parties; provided, however, that if the Seller would be required to indemnify the Purchasing Parties for any Taxes, losses, claims or expenses arising from a Tax Contest, and such Tax Contest relates to a Tax Return of the Purchasing Parties, the Purchasing Parties shall (i) keep the Seller fully and timely informed and apprised with respect to the commencement, status and nature of such Tax Contest, (ii) provide the Seller with copies of, and the reasonable opportunity to comment on, any submissions to any taxing authority relating to such Tax Contest (and, if applicable, to attend, with the Purchasing Parties, any meetings or conferences with such taxing authority), and (iii) not settle any Tax Contest that would result in the Seller being required to indemnify the Purchasing Parties for any Taxes, losses, claims or expenses without the consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) The Seller shall be responsible and liable for the timely payment of, and shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees for, any and all Taxes relating to the Business or the Assets for all Pre-Closing Periods (other than those Taxes included as Current Liabilities in the Closing Working Capital). The Purchasing Parties shall be responsible and liable for the timely payment of, and shall indemnify the Seller Indemnitees for, any and all Taxes relating to the Business or the Assets for all taxable periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Closing Date.

(c) All Taxes and Tax liabilities relating to the Business or the Assets that relate to a Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Period and Post-Closing Period as follows: (i) in the case of Taxes other than income, sales and use and withholding Taxes, on a per diem basis, and (ii) in the case of income, sales and use and withholding Taxes, as determined from the books and records of the Seller and its Affiliates relating to the Business or the Assets as though the taxable year of the Seller or any relevant Affiliate terminated at the close of business on the Closing Date.

(d) The Seller shall terminate or cause to be terminated, on the Closing Date, any and all of the tax sharing, allocation, indemnification or similar agreements, arrangements or undertakings in effect, written or unwritten, that (i) relate to the Business or the Assets and (ii) could give rise to any obligation or liability for the Purchasing Parties or their Affiliates and the successors to the foregoing (and their respective stockholders, officers, directors, employees and agents) for any Taxes imposed by any government or taxing authority, regardless of the period in which such Taxes are imposed, and there shall be no continuing obligation to make any payments under any such agreements, arrangements or undertakings.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnities (on an after-Tax basis) against (i) all Taxes, losses, claims and expenses resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to, any claims that may be asserted by any party based upon, attributable to, or resulting from the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in Section 2.4(f), Section 5.16 or Section 7.7; and (ii) all Taxes relating to the Business

or Assets, for which any Purchaser Indemnitee may otherwise be liable, for all Pre-Closing Periods, to the extent such Taxes are not Current Liabilities in the Closing Working Capital.

(f) All amounts paid by the Seller to the Purchasing Parties or the Purchasing Parties to the Seller pursuant to Section 11.5(b) and Section 11.5(e) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

Section 11.6 No Limitations for Acts of Fraud. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, including Section 11.2 or Section 11.3, to the contrary, in the event either the Seller, on the one hand, or the Purchasing Parties, on the other hand, perpetrates an act of fraud on the other Party, the Party that suffers or incurs Losses by reason thereof shall be entitled to seek recovery therefor against the Party who perpetrated such act without regard to any limitation set forth in this Agreement.

Section 11.7 No Set-off. Neither the Seller, on the one hand, nor the Purchasing Parties, on the other hand, shall have any right to set-off any payments under this Article XI against any payments to be made by such Party pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; provided, however, that the Seller or either of the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, may, at its option (at any time and from time to time), but only after determination by a final non-appealable judgment that amounts are owed to the Seller or either of the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, under this Article XI, reduce any amount owed by the Seller or either of the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, under this Article XI by all or part of any amount owed to the Seller or either of the Purchasing Parties, as the case may be, pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; provided, further, however, that no reduction or set-off shall be permitted with respect to the Cash Purchase Price, including any adjustments thereto pursuant to Section 3.4.

Section 12.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile and .pdf file), each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. The parties to this Agreement need not execute the same counterpart.

Section 12.5 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the Schedules and Exhibits, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements set forth the entire understanding of the Parties, and no modifications or amendments to this Agreement shall be binding on the Parties unless in writing and signed by the Party or Parties to be bound by such modification or amendment. Nothing herein, expressed or implied, shall

create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto nor confer upon any person not a party to this Agreement any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, except for those third party beneficiaries set forth in Section 11.2(a) and Section 11.3(a).

Section 12.6 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

Section 12.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 12.8 Enforcement; Venue. Each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware, or if such court does not have jurisdiction, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. Each of the Parties further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party's respective address set forth in Section 12.3 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. The Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Transactions in (a) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or (b) the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 12.9 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing Date, the Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Parties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance by the other Parties with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

Section 12.10 Schedules and Exhibits. All Exhibits and Schedules hereto are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement. Any fact or item which is disclosed on any Schedule to this Agreement in such a way as to make its relevance to a representation or warranty made elsewhere in this Agreement or to information called for by another Schedule to this Agreement reasonably apparent on its face shall be deemed to be an exception to such representation or warranty, or to be disclosed on such other Schedule, as the case may be, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross reference thereto. Any fact or item disclosed on any Schedule hereto shall not by reason only of such inclusion be deemed to be material and shall not be employed as a point of reference in determining any standard of materiality under this Agreement.

Section 12.11 Delivery. For purposes of this Agreement, references to the term "delivered by the Seller," "delivered to the Purchasing Parties" or "furnished or made available to the Purchasing Parties" or similar expressions shall mean that the Seller has: (a) posted such materials to the Data Room and has given the Purchasing Parties and their Representatives access to the materials so posted, (b) set forth such materials in the Schedules; or (c) has otherwise made such materials available in writing to the Purchasing Parties not less than 24 hours prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Section 12.12 Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by either Party without the express prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment, without such consents, shall be null and void; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, either Purchasing Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of its assets or of greater than 50% of its equity without the prior consent of the Seller.

Section 12.13 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity available to any Party under this Agreement, including monetary damages. Each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other Parties contained in this Agreement.

Section 12.14 No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by all Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 12.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE

ACTIONS OF THE PURCHASING PARTIES OR THE SELLER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

Section 12.16 Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereto are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 12.17 Guarantee by Sigma-Tau.

(a) Sigma-Tau represents and warrants to the Seller as follows:

(i) It is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and has all requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as is now being conducted, except where the failure to be so organized, existing and in good standing or to have such power and authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, be material nor would have a material impact on the ability of Sigma-Tau timely to perform its obligations contemplated hereby.

(ii) It has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations under Section 7.8(a) and this Section 12.17. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Sigma-Tau and the performance by it of its obligations hereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Sigma-Tau are necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the performance by it of its obligations. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Sigma-Tau and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery hereof and thereof by the Purchasing Parties and the Seller, this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of Sigma-Tau, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except (A) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other similar laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (B) the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive or other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and would be subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

(b) Sigma-Tau unconditionally guarantees timely and complete performance by Defiante of all of its duties and obligations contained in Section 3.3(a), Section 3.3(b)(i), Section 3.3(b)(ii), Section 3.3(c), Section 3.3(d) and Section 10.3, and the due and punctual payment by Defiante of any amount that may become due and payable by it under such Sections, if and when, and limited to the extent that, Defiante defaults under such obligations. The Seller shall provide to Sigma-Tau (i) notice of the extent to which Defiante has defaulted under such obligations and (ii) a demand for payment by Sigma-Tau of the amount of such obligations, less the amount in respect thereof that Defiante has paid to the Seller through and including the date of such demand. Sigma-Tau shall, within 30 days of receipt of demand for

payment from the Seller, pay such remaining amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Seller. Sigma-Tau reserves the right to assert defenses that Defiante may have to payment or performance of any obligations guaranteed hereunder. The foregoing guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect for so long as any such payments may become due and payable. Sigma-Tau waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Seller or any Seller Indemnitees to the assets or properties of the Purchasing Parties. The liability of Sigma-Tau shall not be limited, diminished or affected by (i) any failure by the Seller or any Seller Indemnitees to file or enforce any claim against the Purchasing Parties or others (in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise), or (ii) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor. Sigma-Tau hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, protest, notice and demands (other than as provided in this Section 12.17) in connection with the performance of its obligations for payment under this Section 12.17. The guarantee contemplated by this Section 12.17 shall apply regardless of any amendments, variations, alterations, waivers or extensions to this Agreement whether or not Sigma-Tau received notice of the same, and Sigma-Tau hereby waives all need for notice of the same. In addition, to the extent that either of the Purchasing Parties are required to use its commercially reasonable efforts, pursuant to Section 7.8(b), to arrange and obtain alternative financing from lenders other than the Lender and any such other lender requires a guarantee by Sigma-Tau of either of the Purchasing Parties' obligations in connection with such alternative financing, Sigma-Tau shall provide such a guarantee on customary terms and conditions.

(c) Sigma-Tau irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware located in Wilmington, Delaware, or if such court does not have jurisdiction, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement and applicable to Sigma-Tau. Sigma-Tau further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to its address set forth in Section 12.3 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Sigma-Tau irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement in (i) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or (ii) the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of New Castle, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 12.18 Actions by Xxxx. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and prior to or at the Closing, whenever this Agreement requires Xxxx to take any action, that requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part Defiante to cause Xxxx to take that action, and Defiante shall be liable for the non-performance of any obligation by Xxxx.
