to the deadline for director nominations and stockholder proposals for the Issuer&rsquo;s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and (ii)
120 days prior to the first anniversary of the 2024 Annual Meeting if (A) the Issuer notifies the Investor Group and the Investor Group
Appointees in writing at least 10 days prior to the Initial Trigger Date that the Board irrevocably offers to nominate each of the Investor

Cooperation Period will terminate as scheduled and each Investor Group Appointee will resign from the Board if the Investor Group delivers
a notice of an intent to nominate directors for election at the 2024 Annual Meeting. During the Cooperation Period, the Investor Group
also agreed not to acquire ownership of more than 15.0% of the outstanding Shares. In addition, the Velan Principal Appointee agreed

of the slate of directors recommended by the Board, (B) against the election of any nominee for director not approved, recommended and
nominated by the Board and (C) in accordance with the Board&rsquo;s recommendation with respect to any other matter presented at such

the Issuer&rsquo;s stockholders at any such meeting (other than as related to the election or removal of directors), the Investor Group

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; color: #1E1E1E"><B>About ZYNRELEF for Postoperative Pain</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">ZYNRELEF is the first and only dual-acting local anesthetic that delivers
a fixed-dose combination of the local anesthetic bupivacaine and a low dose of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug meloxicam. ZYNRELEF
is the first and only extended-release local anesthetic to demonstrate in Phase 3 studies significantly reduced pain and significantly
increased proportion of patients requiring no opioids&nbsp;through the first 72 hours following surgery compared to bupivacaine solution,
the current standard-of-care local anesthetic for postoperative pain control. ZYNRELEF was initially approved by the FDA in&nbsp;May 2021&nbsp;for
use in adults for soft tissue or periarticular instillation to produce postsurgical analgesia for up to 72 hours after bunionectomy, open
inguinal herniorrhaphy and total knee arthroplasty. In December 2021, the FDA approved an expansion of ZYNRELEF&rsquo;s indication. ZYNRELEF
is now indicated in the U.S. in adults for soft tissue or periarticular instillation to produce postsurgical analgesia for up to 72 hours
after foot and ankle, small-to-medium open abdominal, and lower extremity total joint arthroplasty surgical procedures. Safety and efficacy
have not been established in highly vascular surgeries, such as intrathoracic, large multilevel spinal, and head and neck procedures.
In&nbsp;September 2020, the&nbsp;European Commission&nbsp;granted a marketing authorization for ZYNRELEF for the treatment of somatic
postoperative pain from small- to medium-sized surgical wounds in adults.&nbsp;As of&nbsp;January 1, 2021, ZYNRELEF is approved in 31
European countries including the countries of the&nbsp;European Union&nbsp;and European Economic Area and the&nbsp;United Kingdom. In
March 2022, Health Canada issued a Notice of Compliance for ZYNRELEF for instillation into the surgical wound for postoperative analgesia
after bunionectomy, open inguinal herniorrhaphy, and total knee arthroplasty surgical procedures.</P>
