All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date.

Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement or to the Purchaser’s representatives, including, without limitation, its officers, directors, partners, legal and other advisors, employees, agents and Affiliates, the Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction).

ARTICLE IV
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of the Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

(b) The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following form:

NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE HAS BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, the Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) thereunder.

(c) Certificates evidencing the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof), (i) while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants), (iii) if such Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants), without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent or the Purchaser promptly after the Effective Date if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder, or if requested by the Purchaser, respectively. In making such request, the Purchaser shall deliver a representation certificate, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Company Counsel and the Transfer Agent that such parties shall be entitled to rely upon in connection with the removal of any legend. If all or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, or if such Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants), or if the Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Pre-Funded Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends. Subject to the receipt of the above noted representation certificate, the Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined below) following the delivery by the Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such date, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Purchaser. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of a certificate representing Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend.

(d) In addition to the Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser, in cash, (i) as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date such Securities are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after the Legend Removal Date) for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend and (ii) if the Company fails to (a) issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date a certificate representing the Securities so delivered to the Company by the Purchaser that is free from all restrictive and other legends and (b) if after the Legend Removal Date the Purchaser purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Purchaser of all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, or a sale of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock, that the Purchaser anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend, then an amount equal to the excess of the Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) (the “Buy-In Price”) over the product of (A) such number of Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to such Purchaser by the Legend Removal Date multiplied by (B) the lowest closing sale price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by the Purchaser to the Company of the applicable Shares or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this Section 4(d).

(e) The Purchaser agrees with the Company that the Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.

4.2 Furnishing of Information; Public Information.

(a) Until the earlier of the time that (i) the Purchaser owns Securities or (ii) the Pre-Funded Warrants have been fully exercised, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

(b) At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares (assuming cashless exercise) may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company (i) shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (ii) has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30^th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchaser to transfer the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, provided that a Purchaser shall not be entitled to a payment pursuant to the foregoing, if such Purchaser is able to (i) exercise its Pre-Funded Warrants on a cashless basis and sell the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without restrictions, (ii) sell its Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without restrictions or (iii) or sell its Pre-Funded Warrant Shares or Shares, as the case may be, pursuant to an applicable registration statement. The payments to which the Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3^rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

(c) For so long as CorMedix beneficially owns securities of the Company and if required by GAAP for CorMedix to account for its investment in the Company, following the Closing, the Company will provide the financial information that is required by GAAP for CorMedix to account for its investment in the Company and to enable the timely filing by CorMedix of all reports required to be filed by it pursuant to the Exchange Act.

4.3 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.4 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall (a) by the Disclosure Time, issue a press release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto, with the Commission within the time required by the Exchange Act. From and after the issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the Purchaser that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to the Purchaser by the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective upon the issuance of such press release, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company or any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates on the other hand, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. The Company and the Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor the Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of the Purchaser, or without the prior consent of the Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with (i) any registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b) and reasonably cooperate with the Purchaser regarding such disclosure.

The Company understands and confirms that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. To the extent that the Company, or any of its officers, directors, agents, Affiliates or employees delivers any material, non-public information to the Purchaser without the Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, or any of its officers, directors, agents, Affiliates or employees, or a duty to the Company, or any of its officers, directors, agents, or employees not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information, provided that the Purchaser shall remain subject to applicable law. To the extent that any notice provided pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company, the Company shall simultaneously with the delivery of such notice file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (x) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (y) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (z) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (1) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (2) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will then include in such application all of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will then take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Purchaser does not make any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, (ii) the Purchaser shall not be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, and (iii) the Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of the Company to the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees, Affiliates or agent, after the issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.4.

Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required in order to exercise the Pre-Funded Warrants. The Company shall honor exercises of the Pre-Funded Warrants and shall deliver Pre-Funded Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.13 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. If required, the Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchaser at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of the Purchaser. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to promptly provide to the Company or its representatives any such information as may be reasonably requested so as to allow the Company to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.13.

4.14 Lock-Up Agreements. The Company shall not amend, modify, waive or terminate any provision of any of the Lock-Up Agreements except to extend the term of the lock-up period and shall enforce the provisions of each Lock-Up Agreement in accordance with its terms. If any officer or director that is a party to a Lock-Up Agreement breaches any provision of a Lock-Up Agreement, the Company shall promptly use its best efforts to seek specific performance of the terms of such Lock-Up Agreement.

4.15 Right of First Negotiation.

(a) Following the public announcement (the “Public Announcement”) by Talphera of the achievement of the primary endpoint and topline clinical data and results of the NEPHRO CRRT clinical study for its product candidate Niyad, CorMedix shall have the right for sixty (60) days thereafter (“Exclusivity Period”) to negotiate exclusively with Talphera (the “Right of First Negotiation”) with respect to an acquisition of one hundred percent (100%) of the capital stock and other equity interests of Talphera (an “Acquisition Transaction”). During the Exclusivity Period, Talphera agrees that it shall not engage in discussions with any other third party about an Acquisition Transaction, a sale or exclusive license of all or substantially all of the assets of Talphera or any similar transaction. If after conducting good faith negotiations during the Exclusivity Period, the parties are unable to reach a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Transaction, Talphera shall not, for a period of nine (9) months from the date of the Public Announcement enter into a definitive agreement or binding arrangement with a third party with respect to an Acquisition Transaction or similar transaction on financial terms less favorable (in the good faith determination of the board of directors of Talphera) than those offered in writing by CorMedix during the Exclusivity Period (if any) without the written consent of CorMedix, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b) The rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate upon the earlier of: (i) Talphera’s public announcement of the termination of the NEPHRO CRRT clinical study for any reason prior to the achievement of the study’s primary endpoint and (ii) December 31, 2027. Unless and until a definitive agreement has been duly executed and entered into between the parties with respect to an Acquisition Transaction, this Right of First Negotiation shall not confer any rights or obligations on the parties to enter into such an agreement or otherwise consummate such transaction.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the rights and obligations contained in this Section 4.15 shall not be assignable by either party. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Right of First Negotiation shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

(i) the Company shall cause the CorMedix Board Representative to be promptly elected or appointed to the Board of Directors, including by taking all action as may be necessary to secure the favorable votes of the Board of Directors or the stockholders of the Company, as applicable, in respect of the election or appointment, as the case may be, of such CorMedix Board Representative at the time of any future director elections or appointments (including to fill any vacancy), whether at any annual or special meeting stockholders, or pursuant to any written consent or vote of the Board of Directors or stockholders of the Company or, to the extent necessary, by expanding the size of the board of directors or seeking the resignation of a member of the board of directors as of the date hereof, and appointing the CorMedix Board Representative to the board of directors. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date and CorMedix’s designation of the CorMedix Board Representative as set forth in Section 5.1(a), the Company shall cause such individual to be elected or appointed to the board of directors as the CorMedix Board Representative;

(ii) the Company shall not, without the prior written approval of CorMedix, decrease the size of the board of directors if such decrease would require the resignation from the board of directors of the CorMedix Board Representative; and

(iii) the CorMedix Board Representative shall be entitled to attend all meetings of such committees of the Board of Directors that now exist or may be established pursuant to the Company’s governing documents or by the Board of Directors from time to time.

(c) Expenses; Indemnification.

(i) The Company will reimburse the CorMedix Board Representative for their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with travel to or from and attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and the committees thereof. In addition, the CorMedix Board Representative will be entitled to compensation in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy, as in effect from time to time; provided that the Company shall cooperate to the fullest extent possible with any transfer or assignment to CorMedix or its designee of any compensation, whether in cash, securities, or other property, which the CorMedix Board Representative is entitled to receive from the Company for serving on the board of directors, if so required by any CorMedix policy or agreement applicable to the CorMedix Board Representative.

(ii) The CorMedix Board Representative shall be entitled to indemnification by the Company to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and the Company’s governing documents and shall enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement with its executive officers and directors, as may be amended from time to time, on terms at least as favorable to the CorMedix Board Representative as those then provided by the Company to any other member of the board of directors. The Company hereby acknowledges that the CorMedix Board Representative may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by NCM or certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “CorMedix Indemnitors”), and agrees that the liability of the Company in respect of its obligations to the CorMedix Board Representative in respect of indemnification, expense advancement, amounts paid in compromise or settlement, and the other obligations of the Company pursuant to such indemnification agreement or similar or related obligation of the Company shall be primary, without regard to any advancement or payment by any CorMedix Indemnitor on behalf of any CorMedix Board Representative. Without limitation by any of the foregoing, the Company hereby irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the CorMedix Indemnitors from any and all claims against any of them for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect of any Company obligation to the CorMedix Board Representative under any indemnification agreement or similar or related obligation of the Company. In no case shall the terms of any agreement with the Company entered into by the CorMedix Board Representative be deemed to terminate, amend, modify or replace the terms of this Section 5.1(c)(ii) unless the CorMedix Board Representative explicitly consents to such termination, amendment, modification or replacement by specific reference to this Section 5.1(c)(ii). The Company agrees that the CorMedix Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 5.1(c)(ii).

(d) Disqualification; Vacancy.

(i) For as long as CorMedix holds the right to designate a member of the Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 5.1, in the event that a vacancy is created at any time by the death, disability, retirement, resignation (including due to the operation of Section 5.1(d)(ii)) or removal of the CorMedix Board Representative, then CorMedix may designate another individual reasonably satisfactory to the Company to serve as the CorMedix Board Representative, subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the Trading Market and the Company hereby agrees to take, at any time and from time to time, all actions necessary to accomplish the same.

(ii) If the Company reasonably determines that the CorMedix Board Representative is subject to any Disqualification Event, as evidenced by the written advice of legal counsel of national or international standing, then such CorMedix Board Representative shall immediately tender their resignation from the Board of Directors and its committees. No such disqualification of the serving CorMedix Board Representative shall limit CorMedix’s rights under this Section 5.1. CorMedix shall represent to the Company that the initial CorMedix Board Representative to be elected or appointed to the Board pursuant to Section 5.1(a) is not subject to a Disqualification Event.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever the Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then the Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that, in the case of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded exercise notice concurrently with the return to the Purchaser of the aggregate exercise price paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration of the Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).

6.14 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

6.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchaser and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents.

Re: Securities Purchase Agreements, dated as of September 7, 2025, between by Talphera, Inc. (the “Company”) and the purchaser signatories thereto (the “Purchasers”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Defined terms not otherwise defined in this letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) shall have the meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of September 7, 2025. Pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(vii) of the Purchase Agreement and in satisfaction of a condition of the Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the undersigned irrevocably agrees with the Company that, from the date hereof until ninety (90) days following the Effective Date upon which (i) the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, and (ii) the Shares, sold and issued at the Closing (such period, the “Restriction Period”), the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, lend, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition, whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise, by the undersigned or any Affiliate of the undersigned or any person in privity with the undersigned or any Affiliate of the undersigned), directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), with respect to, any common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company, or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into, shares of Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned, held or hereafter acquired by the undersigned (the “Securities”). Beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may:

(a) transfer the Securities provided in each case that (1) the Company receives a signed lock-up letter agreement (in the form of this Letter Agreement) for the balance of the Restriction Period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, prior to such transfer, (2) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (3) such transfer is not required to be reported with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act during the Restriction Period and no report of such transfer shall be made voluntarily, and (4) neither the undersigned nor any donee, trustee, distributee or transferee, as the case may be, otherwise voluntarily effects any public filing or report regarding such transfers, with respect to transfer:

(i)

as a bona fide gift or gifts;

(ii)

to any immediate family member or to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this Letter Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin);

(iii)

to any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other business entity all of the equity holders of which consist of the undersigned and/or the immediate family of the undersigned;

(iv)

if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity (a) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity that is an Affiliate of the undersigned or (b) in the form of a distribution to limited partners, limited liability company members or stockholders of the undersigned;

(v)

if the undersigned is a trust, to the trustor or beneficiary of such trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust.

(b) transfer the Securities provided in each case that (1) the Company receives a signed lock-up letter agreement (in the form of this Letter Agreement) for the balance of the Restriction Period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, prior to such transfer, (2) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (3) any filing required to be made with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act during the Restriction Period shall clearly indicate in the footnotes thereto that the filing relates to circumstances described below, as applicable:

(i)

by operation of law and/or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or in connection with a divorce decree or settlement; or

(ii)

by will, other testamentary document or intestate succession to the legal representative, heir, beneficiary or a member of the immediate family of the undersigned.

(c) transfers or dispositions of Securities to the Company pursuant to any contractual arrangement in effect on the date of this Letter Agreement that provides for the repurchase of the undersigned’s Securities by the Company in connection with the termination of the undersigned’s employment with the Company; provided, however, that (1) any filing required to be made with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act during the Restriction Period shall clearly indicate in the footnotes thereto that (A) the filing relates to the circumstances described above and (B) no Securities were sold by the undersigned, other than such transfers to the Company as described, and (2) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any other public filings or report regarding such transfer during the Restriction Period;

(d) transfers or dispositions of Securities in response to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, amalgamation or consolidation made to all holders of common stock of the Company or any other acquisition transaction whereby all of the common stock of the Company are acquired by a third party, provided that if such tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other acquisition transaction is not completed, any Securities shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Letter Agreement; or

(e) transfers or dispositions of Securities (1) to the Company pursuant to the exercise on a “net exercise” basis, of any option to purchase Securities granted by the Company pursuant to equity incentive plans described in the SEC Reports, or (2) to the Company on a “net exercise” basis for the purpose of satisfying any withholding taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of an option pursuant to clause (1) or the vesting of any equity awards granted by the Company pursuant to equity incentive plans described in the SEC Reports (the term “net exercise” referring to the transfer to the Company of a portion of the Securities issuable pursuant to the option, or previously owned Securities, to cover payment of the exercise price or withholding taxes, as the case may be); provided that if a filing or other public announcement is made by the undersigned, it shall indicate in the footnotes thereto or otherwise that the filing relates to the cashless exercise of an option or shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with exercise of an option or vesting of restricted share awards, as applicable, that no Securities were transferred by the undersigned other than to the Company and that any Securities received upon exercise of the option are subject to all of the restrictions set forth in this Letter Agreement;

(f) transfer the Securities to satisfy tax withholding and remittance obligations of the undersigned in connection with the vesting and settlement of equity awards granted by the Company pursuant to equity incentive plans described in the SEC Reports; provided, however, that (1) any filing made with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act during the Restriction Period shall clearly indicate in the footnotes thereto that the filing relates to the circumstances described above and (2) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any other public filings or report regarding such transfer or surrender during the Restriction Period;

(g) transfer the Securities pursuant to a trading plan established under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (“10b5-1 Trading Plan”); provided, that such trading plan was established prior to the entry into this Letter Agreement, and provided further, that, to the extent a public announcement or filing, is required or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned, such announcement or filing shall include a statement that such transfer is in accordance with an established 10b5-1 Trading Plan.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall prevent the undersigned from establishing a 10b5-1 Trading Plan or from amending an existing 10b5-1 Trading Plan so long as there are no sales of Lock-Up Securities under any such 10b5-1 Trading Plan during the Lock-Up Period.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Letter Agreement shall not restrict the delivery of shares of common stock of the Company to the undersigned upon the exercise any options or vesting and settlement of any equity award granted under any equity incentive plan of the Company described in the SEC Reports; provided that any Securities acquired in connection with any such exercise or vesting and settlement will be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Letter Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Letter Agreement prohibits the undersigned from (i) exercising any options to purchase Securities granted under equity incentive plans described in the SEC Reports (which exercises may be effected on a “net exercise” basis) and selling in the open market such number of Securities as are necessary to cover the exercise price payable from such exercise of options (to the extent not exercised on a “net exercise” basis) and/or any individual tax obligations resulting from such exercise of options; provided, however, that (a) any remaining Securities issued upon any such exercise and after giving effect to such permitted sales will be subject to the restrictions of this Letter Agreement and (b) any public announcement of or filing with respect to such exercise that is required to be made by the undersigned shall, as applicable, note that any such permitted sales related solely to the sale of such number of Securities as were necessary to cover the exercise price and/or any individual tax obligations resulting from such exercise of options.

The undersigned acknowledges that the execution, delivery and performance of this Letter Agreement is a material inducement to the Company to complete the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the undersigned’s obligations hereunder. The undersigned hereby represents that the undersigned has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Letter Agreement, that the undersigned has received adequate consideration therefor and that the undersigned will indirectly benefit from the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

This Letter Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified in any respect without the written consent of each of the Company and the undersigned. This Letter Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflict of laws. The undersigned hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court sitting in the Southern District of New York and the courts of the State of New York located in Manhattan, for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Letter Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that (i) it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, (ii) the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or (iii) the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. The undersigned hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by receiving a copy thereof sent to the Company at the address in effect for notices to it under the Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The undersigned hereby waives any right to a trial by jury. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

This Letter Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provisions hereof be enforced by, any Purchaser or any other person or entity.

This Letter Agreement shall be binding on successors and assigns of the undersigned with respect to the Securities and any such successor or assign shall enter into a similar agreement for the benefit of the Company.
