STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This stock purchase agreement (this “Agreement”), dated September 8, 2011 is made by and between AMHN, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), Pernix Therapeutics, LLC a Louisiana limited liability company (“Purchaser”), and solely for purposes of Section 5, VitaMedMD, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“VitaMed”).  Collectively, the Company and Purchaser are referred to herein as the “Parties.”

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company and VitaMed are parties to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 18, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among VitaMed, the Company and VitaMed Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires that the Purchaser invest in the Company and the Purchaser would like to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and undertakings set forth herein, the Parties mutually agree as follows:

1.           Sale and Purchase of Shares

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser, 2,631,579 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the ”Common Stock”) at a purchase price of Thirty-Eight Cents ($.38) per share or a total purchase price of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (“Purchase Price”).  The sale and transfer of the Shares shall be effective as of the Closing Date (defined below).  .

2.           Closing

2.1           Closing.  The closing (the “Closing”) shall take place on the next business day following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing Date”).  If the Closing has not occurred by October 31, 2011 (or such other later date as the Parties may, by mutual written agreement, determine), this Agreement will terminate and neither Party shall have any liability to the other party.  On the Closing Date the Purchaser shall wire the Purchase Price for the benefit of the Company to the following account:
 
   Bank Name:     
  Account Name: VitaMedMD, LLC  
  ABA Routing #:     
  Account #:     
 
The Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver to the Purchaser a certificate representing the shares as soon as is reasonably practicable following the Closing.

3.           Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Purchaser

The Purchaser represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

 
 

 
 
       3.1           Authority; Binding Agreement.  The Purchaser has the full legal right, power and authority to enter into and to perform this Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the Purchaser’s valid and binding obligation, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

3.2           Securities Law Representations and Warranties.  The Purchaser has been advised that the Shares have not been registered under Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws, but are being offered and sold pursuant to exemptions from such laws, and that the Company’s reliance upon such exemptions is predicated in part on the Purchaser’s representations contained herein.  The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company is relying in part upon the Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained herein for the purpose of determining whether the offer and sale of the Shares qualifies for applicable exemptions from registration or qualification pursuant to federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations.

3.2.1           Purchase Entirely for Own Account.  The Shares will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to distributing all or any part thereof; the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing any of the Shares in a manner contrary to the Act, or any applicable state securities law; and the Purchaser does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to the person or to any third person with respect to any of the Shares.

3.2.2           Due Diligence.  The Purchaser has been solely responsible for its own due diligence investigation of the Company, VitaMed and their respective businesses, and its analysis of the merits and risks of the investment made pursuant to this Agreement, and is not relying on anyone else’s analysis or investigation of the Company, VitaMed or either of their respective businesses or the merits and risks of the Shares other than professional advisors employed specifically by the Purchaser to assist the Purchaser.

3.2.3           Access to Information.  The Purchaser has been given access to full and complete information regarding the Company and VitaMed, including, in particular, the current financial condition and the limited assets of the Company and VitaMed and the risks associated therewith, and has utilized the access to the Purchaser’s satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining information about the Company and VitaMed.  The Purchaser has either attended or been given reasonable opportunity to attend a meeting with the senior executives of the Company and VitaMed, for the purpose of asking questions of, and receiving answers from, such persons concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and to obtain any additional information, to the extent reasonably available, necessary to verify the accuracy of information provided to the Purchaser about the Company and VitaMed.

3.2.4           Sophistication.  The Purchaser, either alone or with the assistance of the Purchaser’s professional advisor, is a sophisticated investor, is able to fend for the Purchaser in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares.

3.2.5           Suitability.  The investment in the Shares is suitable for the Purchaser based upon the Purchaser’s investment objectives and financial needs, and the Purchaser has adequate net worth and means for providing for the Purchaser’s current financial needs and contingencies and has no need for liquidity of investment with respect to the Shares.  The Purchaser’s overall commitment to investments that are illiquid or not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Purchaser’s net worth, and investment in the Shares will not cause the overall commitment to become excessive.

3.2.6           Professional Advice.  The Purchaser has obtained, to the extent the Purchaser deems necessary, the Purchaser’s own professional advice with respect to the risks inherent in the investment in the
 
 
2

 
 
Shares, the condition of the Company and VitaMed and the suitability of the investment in the Shares in light of the Purchaser’s financial condition and investment needs.

3.2.7           Ability to Bear Risk.  The Purchaser is in a financial position to purchase and hold the Shares and is able to bear the economic risk and withstand a complete loss of the Purchaser’s investment in the Shares.  THE SHAREHOLDER RECOGNIZES THAT THE INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES IS AN INVESTMENT INVOLVING A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.

3.2.8           Further Limitations on Disposition.  Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Purchaser further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares unless and until:

 
(a)
There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

 
(b)
The Purchaser shall be satisfied that such proposed disposition either complies in all respects with SEC Rule 144 or any successor rule providing a safe harbor for such dispositions without registration or is otherwise exempt from registration under the Act and applicable state securities laws.

3.2.9           Residency.  For purposes of the application of state securities laws, the Purchaser represents that it is organized under the laws of the State of Louisiana.

3.2.10           Accredited Investor.  The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, as such rule is presently in effect.

The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

6.           Indemnity Obligation

6.1           Survival of Indemnification Obligations. The indemnification obligations under this Section 6 with respect to representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing Date indefinitely.

6.2           Indemnification by the Company.  After the Closing, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its affiliates and its former, present and future directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all damages, fees, liens, taxes, obligations, losses, claims, liabilities, demands, charges, suits, penalties, costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in investigating and preparing for any litigation or proceeding) (collectively, the “Losses”) incurred or suffered by any such person or that arise from (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty of the Company contained herein, or (b) any breach by the Company of any of their covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

6.3           Indemnification by Purchaser.  After the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates and its former, present and future directors, officers, employees and other agents and representatives (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any such person or that arise from (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained herein, or (b) any breach by Purchaser of any of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

6.4           Defense of Claims.  If any legal proceeding shall be instituted, or any claim or demand made, against any Purchaser Indemnified Party or any Company Indemnified Party (an “Indemnified Party”) in respect of which the Company or Purchaser may be liable hereunder (such Party, in such circumstance, being referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice thereof (the “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that any delay in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is prejudiced by reason of such delay. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend any litigation, action, suit, demand or claim for which indemnification is sought (a “Proceeding”) and, to the extent it elects to do so by written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume and pay the expenses of the defense of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.  In no event shall any Indemnified Party be required to make any expenditure or bring any cause of action to enforce the Indemnifying Party’s obligations and liability under and pursuant to this Section 6.  Except as specifically provided below, after notice by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Party under this Section 6 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding.  The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any of the foregoing Proceedings and to participate in the defense thereof, but the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnified Party shall in good faith determine, upon the written advice of counsel, that there exists actual or potential conflicts of interest which make
 
 
7

 
 
representation by the same counsel inappropriate.  In a case specified in the immediately preceding sentence, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all such Indemnified Parties.  In the event that, within twenty days after receiving a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party that it elects to assume the defense, compromise or settlement of the Proceeding described in such Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense of such Proceeding for the account of and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party at any time prior to the settlement, compromise or final determination thereof upon written notice to the Indemnified Party and upon immediate payment of all reasonable expenses theretofore incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith.  Anything in this Section 6 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any Proceeding, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Proceeding; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any such Proceeding or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such Proceeding that requires solely the payment of money damages by the Indemnifying Party and that includes as an unconditional term thereof the release by the claimant or the plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Proceeding.  If the Indemnified Party takes over and assumes control of any Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall not, without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any Proceeding, or consent to entry of any judgment.  The Indemnified Party shall cooperate, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its employees and the employees of any of its respective affiliates to cooperate, with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Proceeding assumed by the Indemnifying Party.

Section 6.5 Claims Against Indemnifying Party.  In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a third party claim, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party describing in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, an estimate of the amount of damages attributable to such claim to the extent feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Section 6.

7.           Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders

7.1           Restrictive Legend.  The Company’s transfer agent shall endorse all certificates representing Shares purchased by the Purchaser and all certificates representing Shares issued or transferred after this Agreement is entered into with the following legend:

The shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws And neither such shares nor any interest therein may be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred unless a registration statement with respect thereto is effective under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

The sale or transfer of the securities represented by this certificate is subject to the terms and conditions of a lock-up agreement dated [____], 2011, between the issuer and the stockholder listed on the face hereof.  A copy of such agreement is on file at the principal office of the issuer and will be provided to the holder hereof upon request.

7.2           Stop Transfer Order; No Transfer in Violation of Agreement.  The Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with this Agreement’s restrictions, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.  The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (b) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.
