NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Escrow Receivable

We have indemnification obligations to Mylan under the Asset Purchase Agreement that may require us to make future payments to Mylan and other related persons for any damages incurred by Mylan or such related persons as a result of any breaches of our representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement, or arising from the Retained Liabilities (as such term is defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) or certain third party claims specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Generally, our representations and warranties survive for a period of 24 months from the closing date, other than certain fundamental representations which survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. There is a limited indemnification cap with respect to a majority of the Company’s indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement with the exception of claims for actual fraud, the breach of any fundamental representations and certain other items, which have a larger indemnification cap (e.g., the purchase price).

Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, we, Mylan, and an escrow agent entered into an Escrow Agreement at closing, pursuant to which Mylan deposited $5 million of the aggregate purchase price for the Cold-EEZE^® Business into an escrow account established with the Escrow Agent in order to satisfy, in whole or in part, certain of our indemnity obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement. If, on the 18^th month anniversary of the closing date, there are funds remaining in the escrow account, then the escrow account will be reduced by the difference, if a positive number, of (i) $2.5 million minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all escrow claims asserted by Mylan prior to this date that have either been paid out of the escrow account or are pending as of such date, and, within two business days of such date, the Escrow Agent will disburse such difference, if a positive number, to us. Within two business days of the second anniversary of the closing date, the Escrow Agent will release any funds remaining in the escrow account to us minus any amounts being reserved for escrow claims asserted by Mylan prior to such date. Upon the resolution of any pending escrow claims, the Escrow Agent will, within two business days of receipt of joint instructions or a final order from a court (as described in the Escrow Agreement) disburse such reserved amount to the parties entitled to such funds.

Management does not believe that we will be subject to indemnity claims contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement. However, in the event that such a claim is made, and if successful, we would be required to pay Mylan pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement which may reduce the amount we ultimately collect from escrow or could even require us to return a portion of the net proceeds received from the sale of the Cold-EEZE^® Division.

Manufacturing Agreement

In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PMI, entered into a Manufacturing Agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) with Mylan. Pursuant to the terms of the Manufacturing Agreement, Mylan (or an affiliate or designee) will purchased the inventory of the Company’s Cold-EEZE^® brand and product line and PMI will manufactures certain products for Mylan, as described in the Manufacturing Agreement, at prices that reflect current market conditions for such products and include an agreed upon mark-up on our costs. Unless terminated sooner by the parties, the Manufacturing Agreement will remain in effect until March 29, 2022. Thereafter, the Manufacturing Agreement may be renewed by Mylan for up to five successive one year periods by providing notice of its intent to renew not less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the then-current term.

Employment Agreements

On January 14, 2015, we entered into new employment agreements, effective as of January 1, 2015, with Mr. Karkus and Mr. Cuddihy, our former Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. These January 2015 employment agreements superseded the 2012 Employment Agreements that had been scheduled to terminate on July 15, 2015. On May 29, 2015 we entered into amended and restated employment agreements with each of Mr. Karkus and Mr. Cuddihy (the “2015 Employment Agreements”). The 2015 Employment Agreements superseded the employment agreements of Messrs. Karkus and Cuddihy, dated January 1, 2015. The 2015 Employment Agreements were approved by our Compensation Committee.

Under his 2015 Employment Agreement, Mr. Karkus agreed to an annual base salary of $675,000 as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Karkus was eligible to receive an annual increase in base salary and could be awarded a bonus in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. He was also entitled to receive regular benefits routinely provided to other senior executives of the Company. In the event of a termination by the Company of the employment of Mr. Karkus without cause or due to a voluntary resignation by Mr. Karkus with Good Reason (as defined in his 2015 Employment Agreement), Mr. Karkus was entitled to receive 1.5 times his base salary (“Mr. Karkus Severance”), with one-half of such amount to be paid as a lump sum severance payment in cash and the remaining one-half paid in 12 equal consecutive, monthly installments commencing on the first business day of the month following the effective date of the termination. In addition, all of the stock options and/or restricted stock then held by Mr. Karkus would automatically vest concurrently upon such termination of employment, regardless of any prior existing vesting schedules. If Mr. Karkus’ employment was terminated without cause or leaves with Good Reason in contemplation of (or within 24 months following) a change in control of the Company, then, in lieu of the Mr. Karkus Severance payment described above, Mr. Karkus woul instead receive a one-time severance payment in cash equal to the greater of (i) $1.5 million, and (ii) 199 percent of his average annual total Form W-2 compensation for the three calendar years immediately preceding the date of termination.

Under his 2015 Employment Agreement, Mr. Cuddihy agreed to an annual base salary of $350,000 as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Cuddihy was eligible to receive an annual increase in base salary and could be awarded a bonus in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. He was also entitled to regular benefits routinely provided to other senior executives of the Company. In the event of a termination by the Company of the employment of Mr. Cuddihy without cause or due to a voluntary resignation by Mr. Cuddihy with Good Reason (as defined in his 2015 Employment Agreement), Mr. Cuddihy was entitled to receive 1.5 times his base salary (“Mr. Cuddihy Severance”), with one-half of such amount to be paid as a lump sum severance payment in cash.

On April 17, 2017, we entered into an Employment Agreement Termination and Release Agreement (the “April 2017 Termination Agreement”) with Mr. Cuddihy. The April 2017 Termination Agreement terminated Mr. Cuddihy’s prior employment agreement with us, and established new terms of Mr. Cuddihy’s employment with the Company. The April 2017 Termination Agreement was entered into in light of our recent successful sale of the Cold-EEZE^® Business. The April 2017 Termination Agreement provided, among other things, that Mr. Cuddihy would remain employed by the Company on an at-will basis; he would relinquish his rights under the 2015 Employment Agreement, including his rights to separation payments, in consideration for the Company remitting to him a $675,000 termination payment (the “Termination Payment); and he would reduce his annual base salary to $250,000 effective July 1, 2017.

On September 27, 2017, we entered into another Employment Agreement Termination and Release Agreement with Mr. Cuddihy (the “September 2017 Termination Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the September 2017 Termination Agreement, Mr. Cuddihy’s 2015 Employment Agreement terminated effective September 30, 2017 and we paid Mr. Cuddihy a one-time lump sum payment of $55,000 on October 20, 2017. The September 2017 Termination Agreement contains a general release of claims in favor of us and other customary provisions.
