Proposal I

AMENDMENT OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED

CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO DECLASSIFY THE BOARD

Pursuant to the Company’s Charter, the Company’s Board is divided into three classes and directors of the Company are elected for staggered terms of three years. The Company is requesting its stockholders approve an amendment to the Company’s Charter to eliminate the staggered board and enable a phased-in declassification of the Board over a two year period. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved, the nominees for director will stand for election for one-year terms, expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved at the Meeting, the nominees for director will stand for election for a three-year term expiring at the 2015 annual meeting of the stockholders.

Reasons for the Charter Amendment Proposal

Currently, our Board is divided into three classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a three-year term and ending their respective term on consecutive years. Our Board has seven members. The term of our first class of directors, consisting of Mr. Bluher and Mr. Giffoni expires at this annual Meeting. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting of Dr. Shell and Mr. Webster will expire at the second annual meeting. The term of office of the third class of directors, consisting of Mr. Silver, Mr. Nemiroff and Mr. DeWald will expire at the third annual meeting.

As a result, at a given annual meeting, only a minority of the board of directors are presently considered for election. Since our “staggered board” may prevent our stockholders from replacing a majority of our Board at any given annual meeting, it may entrench management and discourage unsolicited stockholder proposals that may be in the best interests of stockholders.

The Board in its deliberation considered the corporate governance trend towards annual election of directors. The Board considered that a classified board has the effect of insulating directors from a corporation’s stockholders. The Board recognizes that a classified structure may appear to reduce directors’ accountability to stockholders, since such a structure does not enable stockholders to express a view on each director’s performance by means of an annual vote. After weighing these different considerations, the Board concluded that eliminating the classified structure to provide for the annual election of all directors would increase the Board’s accountability to stockholders by providing stockholders with a means for evaluating each director each year. Therefore, the Board unanimously approved the proposal and recommends that the stockholders approve the Charter Amendment Proposal.

If the Charter Amendment is approved at this Meeting, the existing second class of directors and third class of directors will continue to hold office until the end of the terms for which they were originally elected. However, the nominees for director at each succeeding annual meetings of stockholders will stand for election for one year terms thereafter. Commencing with the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, all directors will be elected on an annual basis. In all cases, each director will hold office until his or her successor has been elected and qualified or until the director’s earlier resignation or removal.

Appendix I shows the proposed changes to the relevant sections of the Amended and Restated Charter resulting from the Charter Amendment Proposal, with deletions indicated by strike-outs and additions indicated by underlining. If the requisite approval is received at this Meeting our filing agent will be instructed to immediately file the amendment to the Company’s Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the nominees will be elected for one year terms. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved by the stockholders, the election of directors will proceed immediately and the nominees will stand for election for a three-year term.

The Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws states that the Board shall be divided between three classes in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Charter. The Board has approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws to reflect the declassification of the Board in the form of Appendix II hereto which amendment would be effective in the event the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved.

Vote Required

Approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE

CHARTER AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

Proposal II

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The nominees listed below have been nominated by the Board to serve as directors of the Company. If the Charter Amendment Proposal is approved at this Meeting, the nominees will stand for election for a one-year term to serve as directors until the 2013 annual meeting.

Unless such authority is withheld, proxies will be voted for the election of the persons named below, each of whom has been designated as a nominee. If, for any reason not presently known, any person is not available to serve as a director, another person who may be nominated will be voted for in the discretion of the proxies.

Unless you indicate otherwise, shares represented by executed proxies in the form enclosed will be voted for the election of each nominee unless any such nominee shall be unavailable, in which case such shares will be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors.

Board Qualifications

We believe that the collective skills, experiences and qualifications of our directors provide our Board with the expertise and experience necessary to advance the interests of our stockholders.

Dr. Shell’s extensive background in science and medicine, his role as co-investor of our Company’s patented technology, his experience in the formation of new companies and his leadership in managing our Company as Chief Executive Officer leads us to conclude that he would make significant contributions as a director.

Recommendation of the Board

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR”
ELECTION OF EACH OF THE NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR

Corporate Governance

Director Independence

Although the Company’s securities are not listed on any national securities exchange and we are therefore not required to have a majority of independent directors, we apply the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC’s (“Nasdaq”) standard for independent directors to determine which, if any, of our directors are independent pursuant to such definition. Nasdaq defines an independent director generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the Board would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Our Board has unanimously determined that Maurice J. DeWald, Donald J. Webster and Arthur R. Nemiroff are “independent directors” as such term is defined by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2).Mr. Weems, the nominee for director also is expected to qualify as an “independent director”.

Committees and Meetings of the Board

The Board met on nine occasions and took action by written consent on one occasion during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. During the time served as a director during 2011, each of the directors attended at least 80% of the meetings held by the Board. There are three permanent committees of the Board: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominations Committee and Corporate Governance. Currently, each committee is currently composed of Messrs. Nemiroff, Bluher, DeWald and Webster.

Audit Committee

We have a separately-designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. In addition, our Board adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which was included as and which is available, free of charge, from the Company by writing to Mr. NemiroffatTargeted Medical Pharma, Inc., at 2980 Beverly Glen Circle, Suite 301, Los Angeles, CA 90077 or calling (310) 474-9809.

All of the members of the Audit Committee are independent. Mr. Nemiroff serves as Chairperson of the Audit Committee. Our Board has determined that Mr. Nemiroff is an “audit committee financial expert.”

The principal duties and responsibilities of our audit committee are to engage our independent auditors, oversee the quality and integrity of our financial reporting and the audit of the financial statements by the independent auditors. In fulfilling its obligations, our audit committee will review with the management and independent auditors the scope and result of the annual audit, the auditors’ independence and our accounting policies.

The audit committee is required to report regularly to the Board to discuss any issues that arise with respect to the quality or integrity of our financial statements, compliance with legal or regulatory requirements, the performance and independence of the independent auditors, or the performance of the internal audit function.

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee our financial reporting activities. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing with both our independent registered public accounting firm and management, our accounting and reporting principles, policies and practices, as well as our accounting, financial and operating controls and staff. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements with management, and has discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) in Rule 3200T. Additionally, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from our independent registered public accounting firm, as required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. Based upon such review and discussion, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the last fiscal year for filing with the SEC.

The Audit Committee met on 10 occasions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Each of the members of the Audit Committee attended 100 % of the meetings held by the Audit Committee during the time such directors served as a member of the committee.

Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee

All of the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent. Mr. Bluher served as Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The principal duties and responsibilities of our nominating committee will be to identify qualified individuals to become board members, recommend to the Board individuals to be designated as nominees for election as directors at the annual meetings of stockholders, and develop and recommend to the Board our corporate governance guidelines.

Mr. Bluher serves as chairperson of the Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee. The Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee recommends appropriate governance practices, recommends criteria for service as a director and reviews candidates to serve as directors. The principal duties and responsibilities of our nominating committee will be to identify qualified individuals to become board members, recommend to the Board individuals to be designated as nominees for election as directors at the annual meetings of stockholders, and develop and recommend to the Board our corporate governance guidelines. The Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee has adopted a written charter.

The Board believes that all of its directors should have the highest personal integrity and have a record of exceptional ability and judgment. The Board also believes that its directors should ideally reflect a mix of experience and other qualifications. There is no firm requirement of minimum qualifications or skills that candidates must possess. The Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee evaluates director candidates based on a number of qualifications, including their independence, judgment, leadership ability, expertise in the industry, experience developing and analyzing business strategies, financial literacy, risk management skills, and, for incumbent directors, his or her past performance.

The Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee met on three occasions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Each of the members of the Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee attended 100% of the meetings held by the Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee during the time each director served as a member of the committee.

Each of the nominees up for election at this Meeting was recommended to the Board by the Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and reviewing the appropriate compensation of our directors and officers, for reviewing employee compensation plans and for considering and making grants and awards under, and administering, our equity incentive plans. Mr. DeWald serves as chairperson of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has adopted a written charter, a copy of which is available on our internet web site (atwww.tdmedpharma.com). The Compensation Committee met on 5 occasions and acted by unanimous written consent on one occasion during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Each of the members of the Compensation Committee attended 100% of the meetings held by the Compensation Committee during the time such director served as a member of the committee. Among other functions, the compensation committee will oversee the compensation of our chief executive officer and other executive officers and senior management, including plans and programs relating to cash compensation, incentive compensation, equity-based awards and other benefits and perquisites and administers any such plans or programs as required by the terms thereof.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we do not require separation of the offices of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, we currently have a different person serving in each such role – Mr. Maurice DeWald is our Chairman, and Mr. William E. Shell, MD, is our Chief Executive Officer. The decision whether to combine or separate these positions depends on what our Board deems to be in the long term interest of stockholders in light of prevailing circumstances. Mr. DeWald has served as non-executive Chairman of the Board since October 2011. Dr. Shell has served as our Chief Executive Officer since July 2000. This arrangement has allowed our Chairman to lead the Board, while our Chief Executive Officer has focused primarily on managing the daily operations of the Company. The separation of duties provides strong leadership for the Board while allowing the Chief Executive Officer to be the leader of the Company, focusing on its customers, employees, and operations.

In addition, through the Audit, Compensation, Corporate Governance and Nominations Committees, our independent directors who are members thereof provide strong independent leadership for each of those committees.

Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct for Executive Officers and Directors

We adopted Code of Ethics incorporated by reference to Exhibit 14 of the S-1 Amendment No. 1. filed on April 22, 2011 and our Code of Conduct for Executive Officers and Directors is available on our internet web site (atwww.tdmedpharma.com) and will be provided in print without charge to any stockholder who submits a request in writing to Targeted Medical Pharma, Inc., 2980 Beverly Glen Circle, Suite 301, Los Angeles, CA 90077, Attention: Maurice J. DeWald. The Code of Conduct for Executive Officers and Directors applies to each director and officer, including the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer. This Code of Ethics provides principles to which these officers are expected to adhere and which they are expected to advocate. The principles of the Code of Ethics are aligned to and apply to those officers in addition to the Code of Conduct.

Procedures for Contacting Directors

The Board has established a process for stockholders to send communications to the Board. Stockholders may communicate with the Board generally or a specific director at any time by writing to: Targeted Medical Pharma, Inc., 2980 Beverly Glen Circle, Suite 301, Los Angeles, CA 90077, Attention: Maurice J. DeWald. We review all messages received, and forward any message that reasonably appears to be a communication from a stockholder about a matter of stockholder interest that is intended for communication to the Board. Communications are sent as soon as practicable to the director to whom they are addressed, or if addressed to the Board generally, to the chairperson of the Corporate Governance and Nominations Committee. Because other appropriate avenues of communication exist for matters that are not of stockholder interest, such as general business complaints or employee grievances, communications that do not relate to matters of stockholder interest are not forwarded to the Board.

Amir Blachman

On February 15, 2010, we entered into a letter agreement with Amir Blachman pursuant to which Mr. Blachman would serve as Vice President of Operations. We entered into a promotion letter with Mr. Blachman on July 28, 2010 and a new employment agreement, which was effective as of February 8, 2011. Currently, Mr. Blachman serves as our Vice President of Strategy and Operations.

Pursuant to Mr. Blachman’s employment agreement, the term of his employment with us commenced on January 31, 2011 and shall continue to December 31, 2013. The agreement provides that Mr. Blachman will receive an annual base salary of $140,000. Mr. Blachman is also eligible to receive performance bonuses at the discretion of our management.

Mr. Blachman is entitled to receive options to purchase 7,395 (adjusted for the Reorganization) shares of common stock following the 90th day of the effectiveness of his employment with us. Such options fully vested on the 91st day after the effective date of Mr. Blachman’s employment, which was May 16, 2010. In addition, pursuant to Mr. Blachman’s July 28, 2010 promotion letter, Mr. Blachman received additional options to purchase 73,945 shares (adjusted for the Reorganization) common stock, which options shall vest pro rata on a monthly basis over a two year period. Mr. Blachman’s options to purchase stock shall be exercisable by Mr. Blachman at any time during the period of employment or within three years of termination of employment or, upon Mr. Blachman’s death, by his estate, within six months from the date of death.

Mr. Blachman is entitled to receive six months’ base salary in the event his employment with us is terminated by death, disability or without cause by us. In the event Mr. Blachman’s employment is terminated for cause, he shall be entitled to receive only base salary and reimbursable expenses accrued and owing as of the date of termination. We would have “cause” to terminate the employment relationship upon (i) Mr. Blachman’s conviction for the commission of a felony (or a plea of nolo contendere thereto); (ii) any act or omission involving theft or fraud with respect to us, our subsidiaries, customers or suppliers; (iii) reporting to work under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs or the use of illegal drugs causing public disgrace to us; (iv) willful misconduct or gross negligence with respect to our company; and (v) failure by Mr. Blachman substantially to perform his duties under the employment agreement (other than any such failure resulting from Mr. Blachman’s incapacity due to disability).

In the event Mr. Blachman terminates the agreement for cause, he shall be entitled to receive only annual base salary and reimbursable expenses accrued to date. Mr. Blachman will have “cause” to terminate the employment relationship in the event any of the following circumstances are not remedied within 30 days of our receipt of a notice of termination from Mr. Blachman: (i) a material change in Mr. Blachman’s duties or a material limitation of his powers; (ii) a failure to elect Mr. Blachman to the position of Chief Financial Officer or a reduction of his annual base salary; (iii) our failure to continue in effect any benefit plan in effect upon the execution of the initial employment agreement, (iv) a material breach by us of the employment agreement and (v) a change in control.

Mr. Blachman’s employment agreement contains an indemnification provision wherein we promise to defend, indemnify, and hold Mr. Blachman harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law against any and all liabilities incurred by him in connection with Mr. Blachman’s good faith performance of such his employment with us.

Mr. Blachman’s employment agreement contains customary non-competition provisions that extend to twelve months following the termination of Mr. Blachman’s employment with us. Mr. Blachman also agreed to customary terms regarding the protection and confidentiality of trade secrets, proprietary information and technology, designs and inventions.

In the event Mr. Blachman is not vested with the responsibilities of acting as our Vice President of Strategy and Operations and the parties cannot mutually agree upon another suitable position, Mr. Blachman will continue as an advisor and consultant to us for the remaining term of the agreement and shall be entitled to receive all compensation described above. In such event, Mr. Blachman’s service as an advisor and consultant to us will be required at such times as shall result in the least inconvenience to Mr. Blachman with the understanding that Mr. Blachman may have other business commitments during such consulting period. Nonetheless, during his employment as our advisor and consultant, Mr. Blachman shall not directly or indirectly compete with us.

On April 30, 2012, the Company and Amir Blachman entered into Addendum A to the Employment Agreement between the Company and Mr. Blachman effective as of March 5, 2012.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors and officers for any liability arising from an action to which such persons were party by reason of the fact that they were serving our company or another enterprise at our request to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL.

The first paragraph of Article Tenth of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides: To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) directors, officers and agent of the Corporation (and any other persons to which General Corporation Law permits the Corporation to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law.” Our amended and restated bylaws further provide that any indemnification shall be made by us in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by a director or officer with a right to indemnification only if (i) such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or ratified by our Board, (ii) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, and (iii) we provide the indemnification, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in us under applicable law.

Pursuant to our amended and restated bylaws, our directors and officers shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, also have the right to receive an advancement of expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition. To the extent required under the DGCL, an advancement of expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such individual, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to us of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires that our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our Common Stock (referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons”) file with the SEC various reports as to their ownership of and activities relating to our Common Stock. Such reporting persons are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely upon our review of the copies of the forms we have received and representations that no other reports were required, we believe that all Reporting Persons complied on a timely basis with all filing requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during fiscal year 2011 with the exception of Dr. Silver who filed a late Form 4 in December 2011.

The following is a description of transactions that were entered into with our executive officers, directors or 5% stockholders during the past two fiscal years. We believe that all of the transactions described below were made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties. All future related party transactions will be approved by our audit committee or a majority of our independent directors who do not have an interest in the transaction and who will have access, at our expense, to our independent legal counsel. Information about employment agreements, including grants of options to purchase our common stock, entered into with our executive officers is included in the section of this prospectus titled “Executive Compensation”.

Upon consummation of the TMP Merger, (i) each outstanding share of Old TMP common stock was exchanged for approximately 1.48 shares of AFH common stock and (ii) each outstanding Old TMP option, which was exercisable for one share of Old TMP common stock, was exchanged for an option exercisable for 1.48 shares of AFH common stock. Upon consummation of the AFH Merger, which occurred immediately upon consummation of the TMP Merger, each outstanding share of AFH common stock and each outstanding option to purchase AFH common stock was exchanged for one share of our common stock and one option to purchase one share of our common stock. As a result of the Reorganization, holders of Old TMP common stock and Old TMP options received 18,308,576 shares of our common stock and options to purchase 566,424 shares of our common stock, or 83.89% of our issued and outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis.
