On July 18, 2012, Aisling signed a letter for the benefit of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC as representatives of the several underwriters named in the underwriting agreement in connection with the IPO (collectively, the “Underwriters”) and confirmed and agreed to not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate 1,111,111 shares of Common Stock acquired in the IPO until October 18, 2012.
On March 21, 2012, Aisling entered into a lock-up agreement with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC as representatives of the Underwriters and agreed that until September 17, 2012 it will not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock, including 2,019,713 shares of Common Stock issued upon the Conversion (the “Locked-up Securities”) or exercise any right with respect to the registration of the Locked-up Securities or the filing of any registration statement in connection therewith, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Locked-up Securities. Such restrictions do not apply, subject to certain conditions, to transactions relating to (i) bona fide gifts, (ii) transfers to a family member or a trust, (iii) a

distribution to limited partners, members or stockholders of Aisling or to Aisling’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by Aisling or (iv) transfers by will.
Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”), dated December 9, 2009, by and among the Issuer and the holders of Common Stock issuable upon the Conversion listed in Schedule A thereto, including Aisling (the “Holders”), the Issuer may be required to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), 2,019,713 shares of Common Stock held by Aisling issued upon the Conversion. Pursuant to the Investors Rights Agreement, (i) beginning September 17, 2012, upon a written request to the Issuer from any Holder or Holders of at least 75% of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Investors Rights Agreement), the Issuer is required to register all or a portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ shares on any registration statement (other than on Form S-3 unless the Issuer becomes eligible to use Form S-3 as further described below) if the anticipated aggregate offering price is at least $10,000,000; (ii) any Holder or Holders may request the Issuer to register its or their shares on Form S-3 if the anticipated aggregate offering price is at least $1,000,000; and (iii) if at any time the Issuer determines to register any of its securities, it is required to promptly notify all Holders and include in such registration, or “piggy-back,” all the Registrable Securities requested by any Holder or Holders. The Issuer will pay any registration expenses relating to the registration rights of the Holders, subject to certain conditions. The registration rights described above will terminate on July 18, 2018. The Investor Rights Agreement contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions.
From time to time, each of the Reporting Persons may lend portfolio securities to brokers, banks or other financial institutions. These loans typically obligate the borrower to return the securities, or an equal amount of securities of the same class, to the lender and typically provide that the borrower is entitled to exercise voting rights and to retain dividends during the term of the loan. From time to time, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, each of the Reporting Persons may borrow securities, including the Common Stock, for the purpose of effecting, and may effect, short sale transactions, and may purchase securities for the purpose of closing out short positions in such securities.
On July 25, 2012, each of the Reporting Persons entered into an agreement (the “Joint Filing Agreement”) in which the parties agreed to the joint filing on behalf of each of them of statements on Schedule 13D with respect to the securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law.
