TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 10, 2010, we entered into to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the Seaside
Purchase Agreement) with Seaside 88, LP (Seaside). The Seaside Purchase Agreement requires us
to issue and sell, and Seaside to buy, up to 700,000 shares of our common stock once every 14 days,
subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions at each closing, beginning on September
22, 2010 and ending approximately 50 weeks after the initial closing. The price of the shares that
we sell to Seaside will be at an 8% discount to the volume weighted average trading price for our
common stock for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding each closing date.
The Seaside Purchase Agreement contains certain representations and warranties and covenants
which must be true and have been performed by the applicable party, or waived by the other party,
at each closing. Among the various conditions that must be satisfied for a particular closing to
take place is a requirement that the ten-day volume weighted average trading price for our common
stock immediately prior to such closing be at least $6.50 per share. If the ten-day volume
weighted average trading price for a particular closing is below $6.50 per share, then that closing
will not occur. Similarly, in the event that the registration statement related to the offer and
sale of shares to Seaside is not effective and in full force and effect on any closing date, then
the applicable closing will not occur. Seaside also has the right not to complete a purchase of
shares at a subsequent closing if it would cause Seasides beneficial ownership of our common
stock, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to exceed 10% of our outstanding
common stock immediately after such subsequent closing.
If for any subsequent closing the amount of the proposed investment by Seaside at such closing
is greater than two times the amount invested by Seaside at the immediately preceding closing, then
Seaside shall have the option to reduce the number of shares of our common stock purchased at such
closing so that the amount of the investment at such closing is an amount equal to (as near as
possible) two times the amount invested by Seaside at the immediately preceding closing.
We may elect to cancel up to eight subsequent closings during the term of the Seaside Purchase
Agreement in the event a material development or potential material development involving us occurs
that we would be obligated to disclose in a prospectus supplement and which disclosure, in the good
faith judgment of our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, general counsel or board of
directors, would be premature or otherwise inadvisable. In such case, an additional subsequent
closing would be added as a replacement for the cancelled subsequent closing such that the number
of closings pursuant to the Seaside Purchase Agreement would remain unchanged.
We have the right, upon written notice to Seaside, to immediately terminate the Seaside
Purchase Agreement.
Seaside has agreed not to engage in short sales of our common stock during the term of the
Seaside Purchase Agreement and agreed that it will not sell more than 10% of the total number of
share of common stock traded on any trading day.
We have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless Seaside against certain liabilities in
connection with the sale of our common stock under the Seaside Purchase Agreement.
On August 10, 2010, we entered into an agreement with Omni Capital Corporation (the Omni
Agreement) to pay that firm a finders fee in an amount equal to 1% of the aggregate value of all
cash, if any, invested by Seaside under the Seaside Purchase Agreement. If we sell the maximum
number of shares under the Seaside Purchase Agreement at an assumed offering price of $6.5044 per
share, which is equal to 92% of $7.07, the last reported sales price of our common stock as
reported on the Nasdaq Global Market on August 9, 2010, this finders fee would amount to
$1,183,800. Aside from this agreement with respect to a finders fee, there is no material
relationship between Omni Capital Corporation and us, any of our officers, directors, principal
stockholders, or, to our knowledge, any affiliates or associates thereof.
On August 10, 2010, we also entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the Mann Purchase
Agreement) with The Mann Group LLC, an entity controlled by our chief executive officer and
principal stockholder. Under the Mann Purchase Agreement, we are required to issue and sell, and
The Mann Group is obligated to purchase, the same number of shares of our common stock that Seaside
purchases at each closing under the Seaside Purchase Agreement. The price of the shares that we
sell to The Mann Group under the Mann Purchase Agreement will be equal to the greater of $7.15 per
share (the closing bid price of our common stock on August 10, 2010) and the closing bid price of
our common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable closing date. The
aggregate purchase price for the shares of common stock we issue and sell to The Mann Group will be
paid by cancelling an equal amount of the outstanding principal under an existing $350 million
revolving loan arrangement provided by The Mann Group. At July 31, 2010, the principal amount
outstanding under the loan arrangement was $252 million, and we had $98 million of available
borrowings under the arrangement. To the extent that the outstanding principal amount owed under
the loan arrangement is insufficient to pay the full purchase price for the shares of common stock
to be acquired, The Mann Group will pay cash for the balance of the shares of common stock it is
obligated to purchase under the Mann Purchase Agreement. The Mann Purchase Agreement will terminate
on the day following the final closing under the Seaside Purchase Agreement or upon the termination
of the Seaside Purchase Agreement, whichever is earlier.
On August 10, 2010, we also amended and restated the existing promissory note evidencing the
loan arrangement with The Mann Group to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2012, to provide
for the cancellation of indebtedness under the note as described above, to shorten the notice
period from 180 days to 90 days (or the number of days to maturity of the note if less than 90
days) if The Mann Group requires us to prepay the note, and to eliminate our ability to reborrow
under the note the amount of any indebtedness that is cancelled as described above.
The foregoing is not a complete summary of the terms of the Seaside Purchase Agreement, the
Omni Agreement, the Mann Purchase Agreement and the amended and restated promissory note evidencing
the loan arrangement with The Mann Group (the Amended and Restated Promissory Note) described in
this Item 1.01, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Seaside
Purchase Agreement, the Omni Agreement, the Mann Purchase Agreement and the Amended and Restated
Promissory Note attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, respectively.
The offering and sale of shares of our common stock to Seaside is expected to be made pursuant
to our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-166404), which was declared effective
by the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2010. We have filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a prospectus supplement relating to this offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act).
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The issuance and sale of up to 18,200,000 shares of our common stock by us to The Mann Group
pursuant to the Mann Purchase Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act or any
state securities laws. We have relied on the exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. The information relating to the issuance and sale of shares of our common stock to The
Mann Group in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
We are filing the following information with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the
purpose of updating our public disclosure.
In March 2009, we submitted a new drug application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (the FDA) requesting approval of AFREZZA for the treatment of adults with type 1
or type 2 diabetes for the control of hyperglycemia. In March 2010, we received a Complete Response
letter regarding this NDA from the FDA, seeking additional information about AFREZZA. In July 2010,
the FDA accepted our Class 2 resubmission in response to the Complete Response letter and set a
target action date of December 29, 2010. Our focus until then will be to work closely with the FDA
as it evaluates our next-generation delivery system and the other information
that we provided in our resubmission. We will also initiate the installation and validation of
equipment in our Danbury, Connecticut manufacturing facility for filling the cartridges used in our
next-generation inhaler. We expect that these activities will continue into the third quarter of
2011. There can be no assurance that we will obtain approval of AFREZZA on the FDAs target date
or that we will complete the installation and validation of equipment in our manufacturing facility
on our anticipated timeline.

Forward Looking Statements
Any statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K about our expectations, beliefs, plans,
objectives, assumptions or future events or performance, including with respect to our offerings of
common stock to Seaside and The Mann Group, the anticipated closings related to the offerings,
potential aggregate reduction in indebtedness, the installation and validation of equipment in our
facilities and our readiness to launch AFREZZA pending regulatory approval, are not historical
facts and are forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through
the use of words or phrases such as believe, will, expect, anticipate, estimate, intend, plan and
would. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance
or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied. Some of these risks,
uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to risks related to whether
Seaside and The Mann Group will be unable or unwilling to satisfy their obligations under the
Seaside Purchase Agreement and the Mann Purchase Agreement, respectively, whether the conditions
applicable to any sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to either common stock purchase
agreement will be satisfied, the possibility that either common stock purchase agreement may be
terminated prior to the completion of the various closings contemplated thereunder, the progress,
timing and results of clinical trials, difficulties or delays in seeking or obtaining regulatory
approval, the manufacture of AFREZZA, competition from other pharmaceutical or biotechnology
companies, our ability to enter into any collaborations or strategic partnerships, intellectual
property matters and stock price volatility. The foregoing list sets forth some, but not all, of
the factors that could affect our ability to achieve results described in any forward-looking
statements. For additional information about risks and uncertainties we face and a discussion of
our financial statements and footnotes, see documents we file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q
and all subsequent periodic reports. We assume no obligation and expressly disclaim any duty to
update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Current
Report on Form 8-K or to reflect the occurrence of subsequent events.

2.5 Closing Conditions.
(a) The obligations of the Company hereunder in connection with each Closing are subject to
the satisfaction by Seaside, or waiver by the Company, of the following conditions:

5
(iv) with respect to any Subsequent Closing, the 10-Day VWAP shall equal or exceed the Floor,

(v) there shall have been no Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Company since the
date hereof that has not been cured by the Company;
(vi) the Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission and shall
be in full force and effect;
(vii) the purchase of Shares at a Subsequent Closing from the Company shall not cause
Seasides beneficial ownership of the Common Stock, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3
promulgated by the Commission, to exceed 10% of the Companys outstanding common stock immediately
after such Subsequent Closing; and
(viii) from the date hereof to each Closing Date, trading in the Common Stock shall not have
been suspended by the Commission and trading in securities generally as reported by Bloomberg
Financial Markets shall not have been suspended or limited, or minimum prices shall not have been
established on securities whose trades are reported by such service, or on any Trading Market, nor
shall a banking moratorium have been declared either by the United States or New York State
authorities nor shall there have occurred any material outbreak or escalation of hostilities or
other national or international calamity of such magnitude in its effect on, or any material
adverse change in, any financial market which, in each case, in the reasonable judgment of Seaside,
makes it impracticable or inadvisable to purchase the Shares at the Closing.
2.6 The Floor; Dollar Limit on Purchases.
(a) In the event that the 10-Day VWAP does not equal or exceed the Floor, as calculated with
respect to any Closing Date, then such Closing will not occur. In each such event, there will be
one fewer Closing pursuant to this Agreement and the aggregate number of Shares to be purchased
hereunder shall be reduced by 700,000 Shares (as the same may be proportionately adjusted in
respect of any stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or the like with respect
to the Common Stock, all such adjustments to be made in a commercially reasonable manner) for each
such Closing that does not occur because the Floor has not been reached.
(b) If for any Subsequent Closing the amount of the proposed investment by Seaside at such
Closing is greater than two times the amount invested by Seaside at the immediately preceding
Closing (the Dollar Limit), then Seaside shall have the option to reduce the number of
Shares purchased at such Subsequent Closing such that the amount of the investment at such Closing
is an amount equal to (as near as possible) the Dollar Limit.
(c) In the event that the Registration Statement is not effective and in full force and effect
with respect to any Closing Date, then such Closing will not occur. In each such event, there will
be one fewer Closing pursuant to this Agreement and the aggregate number of Shares to be purchased
hereunder shall be reduced by 700,000 Shares (as the same may be proportionately adjusted in
respect of any stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or the like with respect
to the Common Stock, all such adjustments to be made in a commercially reasonable manner) for each
such Closing that does not occur because the Registration Statement is not effective and in full
force and effect on the applicable Closing Date.
6
(d) In the event that the Company furnishes to Seaside a certificate signed by the Chief
Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company stating that a material development or
potential material development involving the Company has occurred which the Company would be
obligated to disclose in the Prospectus Supplement, which disclosure would, in the good faith
judgment of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel or the Board of
Directors of the Company, be premature or otherwise inadvisable at such time, then such Subsequent
Closing will not occur; provided, however, that the Company will not be permitted to cancel a
Subsequent Closing pursuant to this Section 2.6(d) more than eight times during the term of this
Agreement. In the event that a Subsequent Closing is cancelled pursuant to this Section 2.6(d),
then an additional Subsequent Closing will be added to the end of the schedule set forth in the
definition of Subsequent Closing Date as a replacement for the cancelled Subsequent Closing such
that the number of Closings pursuant to this Agreement will remain unchanged as a consequence of
the delivery of a certificate pursuant to this Section 2.6(d).
ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
3.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth under the
corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules, which Disclosure Schedules may be updated before
any Closing and shall be deemed a part hereof, the Company hereby makes the representations and
warranties set forth below to Seaside as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date (provided
that representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date shall continue to be true and
correct as of such Closing with respect to such date):
(a) Subsidiaries. All of the significant subsidiaries (as that term is defined in
Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Commission) of the Company are listed in the
Companys most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as modified by any subsequent SEC Reports filed
with the SEC (each a Subsidiary). The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the
capital stock or other equity interests of each Subsidiary free and clear of any Liens, and all the
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully
paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to subscribe for or purchase
securities. If the Company has no subsidiaries, then references in the Transaction Document to the
Subsidiaries will be disregarded.
(b) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is an
entity duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as applicable), with the requisite
power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as
currently conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation or default of any of
the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
organizational or charter documents. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to
conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the
case may be, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and, to the
knowledge of the Company, no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking,
7
limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or
qualification.
(c) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document
and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of the
Transaction Document by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and its
stockholders, and no further action is required by the Company or its stockholders in connection
therewith other than in connection with the Required Approvals. The Transaction Document has been
(or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance
with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by general equitable
principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of
general application affecting enforcement of creditors rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws
relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies
and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.
(d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Document
by the Company, the issuance and sale of the Shares at each Closing and the consummation by the
Company of the other transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or
violate any provision of the Companys or any Subsidiarys certificate or articles of
incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, violate
or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a
default) under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of the
Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment,
acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement
(written or oral), credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary
debt or otherwise) to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which any property or
asset of the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (iii) subject to the Required
Approvals, conflict with or result in a violation of (x) any law, rule or regulation to which the
Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations),
or by which any property or asset of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (y) any
order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority
that names the Company or a Subsidiary or to or by which, to the Companys knowledge, the Company
or a Subsidiary or any property or asset thereof is bound or affected, except in the case of each
of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.
(e) Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not required to obtain any
consent, waiver, authorization, approval or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, the
Trading Market or other Person (including its stockholders) in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Document, other than (i) the filing of
the Prospectus Supplement and (ii) any notice filings or SEC Reports as are required to be made
8
following each Closing Date under applicable federal and state securities laws or under applicable
rules and regulations of the Trading Market (collectively, the Required Approvals).
(f) Issuance of the Shares. The Shares are duly authorized and, when issued and paid
for in accordance with the Transaction Document, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens. The Company has reserved from its duly authorized
capital stock the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement.
The issuance by the Company to Seaside or the resale by Seaside of the Shares has been registered
under the Securities Act and all of the Shares when delivered will be freely transferable and
tradable on the Trading Market by Seaside without restriction (other than any restrictions arising
solely from the status, acts or omissions of Seaside). The Registration Statement is effective and
available for the issuance or the resale by Seaside of the Shares thereunder and the Company has
not received any notice that the Commission has issued or intends to issue a stop-order with
respect to the Registration Statement or that the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or intends or
has threatened in writing to do so. The Plan of Distribution section under the Registration
Statement as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement permits the issuance and sale, or the resale
by Seaside, of the Shares hereunder.
(g) Capitalization. The capitalization of the Company is as set forth in the
Registration Statement as of the dates set forth therein. The Company has not issued any capital
stock since its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, other than pursuant to
the exercise of employee stock options under the Companys stock option plans, the issuance of
shares of Common Stock to employees pursuant to the Companys employee stock purchase plan, the
issuance of shares of Common Stock to consultants pursuant to written consulting agreements and to
vendors in payment for goods and services and the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the vesting, conversion or exercise of outstanding Common Stock Equivalents, and as otherwise set
forth in the Disclosure Schedules. No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right,
right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Document. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports or Section 3.1(g) of the Disclosure
Schedules, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments
of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or
exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common
Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any
Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports or Section 3.1(g) of the Disclosure Schedules,
the issue and sale of the Shares will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or
other securities to any Person (other than Seaside) and will not result in a right of any holder of
Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such
securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in material compliance with all federal and state
securities laws and requirements of the Trading Market, and none of such outstanding shares was
issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase
securities. No further approval or authorization of any stockholder or the Board of Directors of
the Company is required for the issuance and sale of the Shares, other than the Required Approvals.
There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect
to the Companys capital stock to which the
9
Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Companys
stockholders.
(h) SEC Reports; Financial Statements. The Company has filed or furnished all
reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed or furnished by it
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (including all required exhibits thereto), including
pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof (the foregoing materials, as the same may be amended,
and including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, being
collectively referred to herein as the SEC Reports) for the 12 months preceding the date
hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such material) and any
notices, reports or other filings pursuant to applicable requirements of the Trading Market on a
timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing, and has filed any such SEC
Reports and notices, reports or other filings pursuant to applicable requirements of the Trading
Market prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their respective dates, the SEC
Reports complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and
none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial
statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with
applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect
thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements (i) have been prepared in
accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent
basis during the periods involved (GAAP), except as may be otherwise specified in such
financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not
contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and (ii) fairly present in all material respects the
financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof
and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of
unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments.
(i) Material Changes. Since the date of the latest audited financial statements
included within the SEC Reports, except as specifically disclosed in the SEC Reports, (i) there has
been no event, occurrence or development that has had or that would reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect, except as has been reasonably cured by the Company, (ii) the
Company has not incurred any liabilities (contingent or otherwise) other than (A) trade payables,
accrued expenses and other liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with
past practice and (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the Companys financial
statements pursuant to GAAP or required to be disclosed in filings made with the Commission, (iii)
the Company has not altered its method of accounting except as otherwise required pursuant to GAAP,
(iv) the Company has not declared or made any dividend or distribution of cash or other property to
its stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or redeem any shares of
its capital stock (other than in connection with repurchases of unvested stock issued to employees
of the Company) and (v) the Company has not issued any equity securities to any officer, director
or Affiliate, except pursuant to existing Company stock option and incentive plans or awards.
10
(j) Litigation. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there is no Proceeding
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, any
Subsidiary or any of their respective properties, or to the Companys knowledge any of their
respective officers or directors (in any such officers or directors capacity as such) before or
by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal,
state, county, local or foreign) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity
or enforceability of the Transaction Document or the Shares or (ii) would, if there were an
unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any
director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as such), is or has been the subject of any
Proceeding involving a claim or violation of, or liability under, any federal or state securities
laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been and, to the knowledge of the
Company, there is not currently pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission
involving the Company or any Subsidiary or any current or former director or officer of the Company
or any Subsidiary (in his or her capacity as such). The Commission has not issued any stop order
or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or
any Subsidiary under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act and, to the Companys knowledge, no
proceeding for such purpose is pending before or threatened by the Commission.
(k) Compliance. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is in default under or in
violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time
or both, would reasonably be expected to result in a default by the Company or any Subsidiary
under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in default
under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement
or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or
not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any order of any court,
arbitrator or governmental body naming the Company or a Subsidiary or of which the Company has
knowledge, or (iii) is in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental
authority or the Trading Market, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local
laws applicable to its business, except in each case as would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(l) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Companys Common Stock is registered
pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or
which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common
Stock under the Exchange Act, nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is
contemplating terminating such registration. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the
date hereof or any Closing Date, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock
is or has been listed or quoted (as applicable) to the effect that the Company is not in compliance
with the listing or quotation (as applicable) and maintenance requirements of such Trading Market.
The Company is, and immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
be, in compliance with all such listing or quotation (as applicable) and maintenance requirements.
(m) Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and its Board of Directors have
taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition,
business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights
11
agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Companys certificate of
incorporation (or similar charter documents) and the laws of its state of incorporation that is or
could become applicable to Seaside as a result of Seaside and the Company fulfilling their
obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Document, including without limitation
the Companys issuance of the Shares and Seasides ownership of the Shares.
(n) Effective Registration Statement. The Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the Commission and remains effective as of the date hereof and the Company knows of no
reason why the Registration Statement will not continue to remain effective for the foreseeable
future. The Company is eligible to use Form S-3 registration statements for the issuance of
securities.
(o) Acknowledgment Regarding Seasides Purchase of Shares. The Company acknowledges
and agrees that Seaside is acting solely in the capacity of an arms length purchaser with respect
to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company further
acknowledges that Seaside is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby and any advice given by Seaside or any of its representatives or agents in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to
Seasides purchase of the Shares. The Company further represents to Seaside that the Companys
decision to enter into this Agreement has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by the Company and its representatives.
(p) Approvals. The issuance and listing or quotation (as applicable) on the Trading
Market of the Shares requires no further approvals, including but not limited to, the approval of
stockholders.
(q) Intellectual Property. The Company possesses such right, title and interest in
and to, or possesses legal rights to use, all such patents, patent rights, trade secrets,
inventions, know-how, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, service marks and other proprietary
rights (Intellectual Property) as are material to the conduct of the Companys business
except Intellectual Property the failure of which to possess would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company has not
received any notice of infringement, misappropriation or conflict from any third party as to
Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to the Company that has not been resolved or
disposed of, which infringement, misappropriation or conflict would, if the subject of an
unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
To the Companys knowledge, it has not infringed, misappropriated, or otherwise conflicted with the
valid Intellectual Property of any third parties, which infringement, misappropriation or conflict
would, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect.
(r) Permits. The Company has made all filings, applications and submissions required
by, and possesses all approvals, licenses, certificates, certifications, clearances, consents,
exemptions, marks, notifications, orders, permits and other authorizations issued by, the
appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to own or lease its
properties
12
and to conduct its businesses (collectively, Permits), except for such Permits the
failure of which to possess or obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. The Company has not received any written notice of proceedings relating to the limitation,
revocation, cancellation, suspension, modification or non-renewal of any such Permit which, singly
or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and has no reason to believe that any such Permit
will not be renewed in the ordinary course.
(s) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither the Company nor any officer,
director or employee of the Company acting on its behalf (as such term is used in Regulation FD)
has provided Seaside or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might
reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information except insofar as the
existence and terms of the proposed transactions hereunder may constitute such information. The
Company understands and confirms that Seaside will rely on the foregoing representations and
covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. None of the representations and
warranties of the Company contained herein, nor any statement made by the Company in any
disclosure, schedule, exhibit, certificate or other document furnished or to be furnished to
Seaside in connection herewith, contains or will 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 light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
3.2 Representations and Warranties of Seaside. Seaside hereby makes the
representations and warranties set forth below to the Company as of the date hereof and as of each
Closing Date (provided that representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date shall
continue to be true and correct as of such Closing with respect to such date):
(a) Organization; Authority. Seaside is a limited partnership duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Florida, with full right, power and
authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently
conducted and to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution, delivery and
performance by Seaside of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized
by all necessary action on the part of Seaside and no such further action is required. The
Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by Seaside, and, when
delivered by Seaside in accordance with the terms thereof, will constitute the valid and legally
binding obligation of Seaside, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except (i) as
limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors rights
generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive
relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions
may be limited by applicable law.
(b) Experience of Seaside. Seaside, either alone or together with its
representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial
matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the
Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Seaside has access to
sufficient capital to fund its anticipated obligations set forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.2. Seaside
is
13
able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to
afford a complete loss of such investment.
(c) Short Sales. Seaside has not directly or indirectly executed any Short Sales or
other hedging transactions in the securities of the Company.
(d) No Brokers or Finders. Except for Omni Capital Corporation, whose fees will be
paid by the Company, no agent, broker, investment banker or other firm is or will be entitled to
any brokers or finders fee or any commission or similar fee from Seaside in connection with any
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) Limited Ownership. The purchase by Seaside of the Shares issuable to it at the
Closings will not result in Seaside (individually or together with any other Person with whom
Seaside has identified, or will have identified, itself as part of a group in a public filing
made with the Commission involving the Companys securities) acquiring, or obtaining the right to
acquire, in excess of 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the voting power of the
Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that all Closings contemplated by this Agreement
shall have occurred.
(f) Investment Intent. Based on its past experience in transactions similar to the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement and its intentions with respect to the Shares that are
issuable to it under this Agreement, Seaside does not believe it is an underwriter.
ARTICLE IV
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 No Transfer Restrictions. Certificates evidencing the Shares shall not contain
any legend restricting their transferability by Seaside. The Company shall cause its counsel to
issue a legal opinion to the Companys transfer agent if required by the Companys transfer agent
to effect a transfer of any of the Shares; such opinion shall be provided by the Companys counsel
at no expense to Seaside.
4.2 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 9:00 a.m. Eastern
time on the Trading Day following the date hereof, file a Current Report on Form 8-K which attaches
as an exhibit this Agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to Seaside and its counsel, if
Seaside is readily available to review such Form 8-K in a timely manner, disclosing the material
terms of the transactions contemplated hereby.
4.3 Shareholders Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or,
with the consent of the Company, any other Person that Seaside is an Acquiring Person or similar
designation under any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or
hereafter adopted by the Company, or that Seaside could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any
such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Shares under the Transaction Document or under any
other agreement between the Company and Seaside.
4.4 Investment Company Status. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so
that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
14
4.5 Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any
other Person acting on its behalf will provide Seaside or its agents or counsel with any
information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information. The Company
understands and confirms that Seaside shall be relying on the foregoing representations in
effecting transactions in securities of the Company. Seaside covenants and agrees that it shall
not, and shall cause its counsel not to, knowingly request from the Company or any person acting on
the Companys behalf any material non-public information (other than any such information disclosed
prior to the date of this Agreement).
4.6 Indemnification of Seaside. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.6, the
Company will indemnify and hold Seaside and its respective directors, officers, stockholders,
partners, members, employees, agents and Affiliates (each, a Seaside Party) harmless from
any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses,
including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and actual and reasonable
attorneys fees and costs of investigation reasonably incurred in connection with defending or
investigating any suit or action in respect thereof to which any Seaside Party is or reasonably
believes it may become a party under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other federal or
state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, liabilities,
obligations, claims, demands, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses arise out of or are based
on (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement or any Prospectus Supplement, or (b) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to
the extent that any such liability, obligation, claim, demand, contingency, damage, cost or expense
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by and regarding Seaside expressly for inclusion therein. If any action shall be
brought against any Seaside Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this
Agreement, such Seaside 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. Any Seaside 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 Seaside Party
except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the
Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such
defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such
separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and
the position of such Seaside Party such that common representation would be unethical or
ineffective. The Company will not be liable to any Seaside Party under this Agreement (x) for any
settlement by a Seaside Party effected without the Companys prior written consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (y) to the extent, but only to the extent, that a
loss, liability, obligation, claim, demand, damage, cost or expense is attributable to any Seaside
Partys breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Seaside
in this Agreement.
4.7 Listing or Quotation of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use its best
efforts to maintain the listing or quotation (as applicable) of the Common Stock on its current
Trading Market and all other Trading Markets on which such Common Stock may hereafter be
15
listed or quoted (as applicable), and will comply in all respects with the Companys reporting,
filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such Trading Market(s), provided that
best efforts shall not require the expenditure of time or money that is unreasonable in light of
the likelihood of success of the efforts. The Company further agrees that, if the Company applies
to have the Common Stock traded on any Trading Market other than its current Trading Market, it
will include in such application all of the Shares and will take such other action as is reasonably
necessary to cause all of the Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market.
4.8 Stockholder Approval. The Company shall not issue shares of Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents, if such issuance would require stockholder approval pursuant to
applicable rules of the Trading Market, unless and until such stockholder approval is obtained.
4.9 Short Sales; Limits on Trading. Seaside covenants that neither it nor any Person
acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will (a) execute any Short Sales in
the securities of the Company from the date hereof until the final Subsequent Closing contemplated
hereby, or (b) sell a quantity of Shares that exceeds 10% of the total number of shares of Common
Stock traded on any Trading Day.
4.10 Prospectus Supplement. The Company will use its best efforts to file the
Prospectus Supplement in accordance with the requirements of Rule 424 promulgated under the
Securities Act on or before the Initial Closing Date and, if required, before each Subsequent

the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
17
reasonable attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
5.10 Survival. The representations and warranties herein shall survive the Closings
and delivery of the Shares for the applicable statute of limitations.
5.11 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being
understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature
is delivered by facsimile or email transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding
obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
force and effect as if such facsimile or email signature page were an original thereof.
5.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt
to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon
so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Document, whenever
one party exercises a right, election, demand or option under the Transaction Document and the
other party does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided,
then the exercising party may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon
written notice to the other party, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part
without prejudice to its future actions and rights.
5.14 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein
or granted by law, including recovery of damages, Seaside and the Company will be entitled to
specific performance under the Transaction Document. The parties agree that monetary damages may
not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of the obligations set
forth herein and hereby agree to waive in any such action for specific performance of any such
obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
5.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that either party hereto makes a payment or
payments to the other party hereto pursuant to the Transaction Document or enforces or exercises
its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise
or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to
the other party, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been
made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
18
5.16 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective
counsel has reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Document and, therefore, the
normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Document or any
amendments hereto.

This letter (the Agreement) sets forth the terms by which MannKind Corporation (the
"Company) retains Omni Capital Corporation (Omni) as a non-exclusive financial advisor for the
purposes of seeking funding for the Company from Seaside 88, LP (the Investor).
1. The Advisory. Omni hereby agrees to assist the Company on a non-exclusive basis in
seeking capital by making an introduction to the Investor to determine whether the Company and the
Investor desire to enter into that certain common stock purchase agreement (the SPA) dated of
even date herewith, as well as any substantially similar stock purchase agreement with the Investor
that replaces the SPA if such SPA is terminated early or that succeeds the SPA upon its expiry,
provided such replacement or renewal takes place within two years of the date hereof (collectively,
the SPA Deal).
2. Compensation. In consideration of Omnis services, the Company hereby agrees to
pay to Omni upon closing of each transaction with the Investor a fee equal to one percent (1.0%) of
the aggregate value of all cash received by the Company in connection with the sale of shares of
its common stock to the Investor (the Fee); provided, however, that Omni shall not be entitled to
a Fee or any fee with respect to any sale by the Company of shares of its common stock or any other
securities to the Investor that is not part of the SPA Deal. Each Fee is payable on receipt of
funds by the Company and is to be paid by the company to Omni by the tenth day following the month
in which such funds are received. Each Fee shall be based upon the amount of that particular
investment alone. The Companys obligation to pay Fees in accordance with this Paragraph 2 shall
survive the expiration but not the early termination of this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph 3.
Omni agrees to pay its own expenses.
3. Termination.
The Agreement shall be for a period of ten (10) weeks from the date
of execution of the SPA; provided, that if the Investor and the Company do not enter into such SPA
by August 31, 2010, this Agreement shall terminate on August 31, 2010. In the event that this
Agreement terminates on August 31, 2010, Omni will be entitled to the Fees set forth in Section 2
(above) of the Agreement (Compensation) with respect to any financing transaction (whether
equity, debt, or a combination) in which the Investor provides funding to the Company, provided
that the transaction is consummated within six months following the termination of the Agreement.
4. Due Authorization. Each of the parties represents that it is duly authorized to
execute and perform this Agreement.
5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be the same
agreement.
Omni Capital Corporation Engagement Letter p2
6. Indemnification. Each of the parties will indemnify and hold harmless the other,
and each employee, officer, director, partner and controlling person of the other, for any loss,
claim, damage expense or liability arising out of such indemnifying partys breach of any provision
of this Agreement or violation or alleged violation of any law or regulation. Company
may not offset payments due to Omni without Omnis consent or without the determination of the
arbitration panel described below.
7. Arbitration. Any dispute between the parties hereto shall be subject to binding
arbitration before a three arbitrator panel in accordance with the rules of the American
Arbitration Association. Prior to the selection of the arbitrators of the binding arbitration, the
parties shall first attempt non-binding mediation before a mediator selected by said Association.
In the event the mediator makes a determination and only one of the parties refuses to accept said
determination, then the refusing party shall be responsible for all arbitration and attorneys fees
of the other party should the refusing party receive a less favorable result from the binding
arbitration, subject however to the discretion of the arbitrators to reallocate these costs if
cause is so found by the arbitrators.
8. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
State of New York governing contracts made and to be performed in such state without giving effect
to the principles of conflicts of laws.
9. Successors. This Agreement is made solely for the benefit of, and shall be binding
upon, Omni and Company and their respective successors and assigns and no other person shall
acquire or have any right by virtue of this Agreement.
10. Miscellaneous. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and cancels any prior communications,
understandings, and agreements between the parties. Neither this Agreement nor its substance shall
be disclosed except to those who agree to maintain such confidentiality or where the same is
required by law; provided, that Omni acknowledges and agrees that the Company is entitled to file
this Agreement as an exhibit with the Securities and Exchange Commission and describe this
Agreement and its substance in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in any
press release relating to the sale of Company shares to the Investor. This Agreement may not be
amended, nor may any of its provisions be waived, except by written agreement signed by both
parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors and
assigns of the Company and Omni.

Exhibit 10.3
MANNKIND CORPORATION
COMMON STOCK
PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is made as of the 10th day
of August, 2010 by and between MannKind Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the Company), and
The Mann Group LLC (such investor, including its successors and assigns, the Investor).
WHEREAS, the Company and Seaside 88, LP, a Florida limited partnership (Seaside), have
entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the Seaside Agreement)
pursuant to which the Company has agreed to issue and sell to Seaside, and Seaside has agreed to
purchase from the Company, up to 18,200,000 shares of the Companys common stock, $0.01 par value
(the Common Stock) in a series of closings as specified therein;
WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company desires
to issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor desires to purchase from the Company, up to
18,200,000 shares of Common Stock concurrently with the sales and issuances of shares of Common
Stock by the Company to Seaside;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Company and the Investor agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Stock.
1.1 Sale and Issuance of Common Stock. On the basis of the representations and warranties
herein, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, concurrently with each Closing (as
such term is defined in the Seaside Agreement) the Investor agrees to purchase from the Company and
the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchaser at the Per Share Purchase Price (as
hereinafter defined) the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common
Stock issued and sold to Seaside at such Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, the Per Share
Purchase Price shall be an amount equal to the greater of (a) the consolidated closing bid price
for the Common Stock as reported by The Nasdaq Stock Market on the trading day immediately
preceding the applicable Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Seaside Agreement) and
(b) $7.15.
1.2 Closings. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth herein, each
purchase and sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement shall take place at the
offices of the Company immediately following the applicable Closing (as such term is defined in the
Seaside Agreement) or at such other time or place as the Company and the Investor may mutually
agree. At such time, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver to the Investor a
certificate representing such shares against the cancellation of indebtedness owed by the Company
to the Investor under that certain Amended and Restated Promissory Note of even date herewith (the
Note), the amount of such indebtedness cancelled to be equal to the number of shares of Common
Stock being sold at such time multiplied by the Per Share Purchase
1.
Price applicable to such sale; provided, however, that the cancellation of indebtedness shall
be applied only to the outstanding principal balance under the Note and not to any accrued
interest; provided further, that if cancellation of the outstanding principal balance under the
Note is insufficient to pay the entire consideration for the shares of Common Stock being sold at
such time, the Investor shall pay the balance of the consideration in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company. In connection with the
cancellation of indebtedness, the Investor shall record an appropriate notation on Exhibit A to the
Note to reflect such cancellation as a payment of principal on the Note.
2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to
the Investor that:
(a) All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders
necessary for the authorization of this Agreement, the performance of all obligations of the
Company hereunder and the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Stock
pursuant hereto has been taken.
(b) This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors rights generally and (ii) equitable principles of general applicability
relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies.
(c) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor contained in
Section 3 hereof, the offer, sale and issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant hereto will
be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act), and will have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and
qualification) under the registration, permit or qualification requirements of all applicable state
securities laws.
3. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby represents and warrants to
the Company that:
(a) The Investor has full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.
(b) This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable
against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors rights generally and (ii) equitable principles of general applicability
relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies.
(c) The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented
to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of shares of Common Stock constitutes
legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such
2.
legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection with its purchase of shares of Common Stock.
(d) The Investor understands that the shares of Common Stock to be purchased hereunder have
not been registered under the Securities Act. The Investor also understands that such shares are
being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act
based in part upon the Investors representations contained in this Agreement.
(e) The Investor has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement
transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own
interests. The Investor must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely unless the
shares of Common Stock purchased hereunder are registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or an
exemption from registration is available. The Investor understands that the Company has no present
intention of registering such shares. The Investor also understands that there is no assurance
that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if
available, such exemption may not allow the Investor to transfer all or any portion of such shares
under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times the Investor might propose.
(f) The Investor is acquiring the shares of Common Stock to be purchased hereunder for the
Investors own account for investment only, and not with a view towards their distribution.
(g) The Investor has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the
transactions contemplated in this Agreement.
(h) The Investor is an accredited investor within the meaning of Regulation D under the
Securities Act.
4. Restrictions on Transfer
4.1 Rule 144. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the shares of Common Stock to be
purchased hereunder are restricted securities as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act as in effect from time to time and must be held indefinitely unless they are
subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. The Investor has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144, which permits
limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information
about the Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 and
the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.
4.2 Restrictive Legend. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each certificate
representing shares of Common Stock purchased hereunder shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted
with a legend substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required under
applicable state securities laws):
3.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE ACT) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND
UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN
OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL THAT
SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
4.3 Legend Removal. The Company shall be obligated to reissue promptly unlegended
certificates at the request of the Investor if the Investor shall have obtained an opinion of
counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the
effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully be so disposed of without
registration, qualification and legend.
5. Miscellaneous.
5.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the
prior written consent of the other party. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be
binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
5.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, excluding conflict of laws principles that
would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.
5.3 Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Facsimile signatures shall be as effective as original signatures.
5.4 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for
convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
5.5 Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Agreement
shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery to the party
to be notified or upon facsimile transmission and by courier service (with proof of service), or by
registered or certified mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid) and
addressed to the party to be notified at the address indicated for such party on the signature page
hereof, or at such other address as such party may designate by 10 days advance written notice to
the other parties.
5.6 Finders Fee. Each party represents that it neither is nor will be obligated for any
finders fee or commission in connection with this transaction.
5.7 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of
any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of both the Company and the
Investor.
4.
5.8 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable
under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the
Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in
accordance with its terms.
5.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other documents referred to herein constitute
the entire agreement among the parties and no party shall be liable or bound to any other party in
any manner by any warranties, representations, or covenants except as specifically set forth herein
or therein.
5.10 Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the day following the final
Closing (as such term is defined in the Seaside Agreement) or (b) the termination of the Seaside
Agreement.

Exhibit 10.4
AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
|
|
|
|
|
|
$350,000,000
|
|
Dated August 10, 2010 |
|
|
Valencia, California |
This Amended and Restated Promissory Note (this Amended Note), dated as of August
10, 2010, amends, re-evidences, restates, and supersedes in full, but does not in any way satisfy
nor discharge the outstanding indebtedness, if any, owed under that certain Promissory Note dated
February 26, 2009 in the original principal amount of Three Hundred and Fifty Million Dollars
($350,000,000), made by the undersigned in favor of The Mann Group LLC (the Original
Note). The Original Note, as amended, re-evidenced, and restated by this Amended Note, is
referred to herein as the Note.
For Value Received, MannKind Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(Borrower), hereby promises to pay to the order of The Mann Group LLC (Lender), in
lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum
of up to Three Hundred and Fifty Million Dollars ($350,000,000) or the aggregate principal amount
of all Advances (as defined below) made hereunder, whichever is less (the Loan) together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, each due and payable on the dates and in the manner set forth
below.
1. Principal Repayment. The outstanding principal amount of each Advance together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable on December 31, 2012 (the Maturity
Date).
2. Interest Rate. Borrower further promises to pay interest on the outstanding principal
amount of each Advance from the date thereof until payment in full, which interest shall be payable
at a rate equal to the one year London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) reported by the Wall Street
Journal (or a comparable periodical if such periodical is no longer published) on the day of such
Advance plus 3% per annum, or the maximum rate permissible by law (which under the laws of the
State of California shall be deemed to be the laws relating to permissible rates of interest on
commercial loans), whichever is less. Interest shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears not
later than the first day of each calendar quarter for the preceding quarter, commencing on the
first day of the calendar quarter following the calendar quarter in which an Advance is made, and
shall be calculated on the basis of a 365/366-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
3. Place of Payment. All amounts payable hereunder shall be payable in lawful money of the
United States of America at the office of Lender, 28903 North Avenue Paine, Valencia, CA 91355,
unless another place of payment shall be specified in writing by Lender.
1.
4. Application of Payments; Prepayment.
4.1 Payment on this Note shall be applied first to accrued interest, and thereafter to the
outstanding principal balance hereof.
4.2 This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalty or premium. Any amount
prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.2 may be reborrowed subject to Section 5 hereof. Any partial
prepayment made pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be applied to interest first and then to
principal, and shall be applied to the oldest outstanding Advance first. At the time of any
prepayment of principal hereunder, Borrower shall also pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the
amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.
4.3 Pursuant to that certain Common Stock Purchase Agreement between Borrower and Lender dated
as of August 10, 2010 (the Purchase Agreement), Lender has agreed to purchase from Borrower, and
Borrower has agreed to issue and sell to Lender, at the Per Share Purchase Price (as defined in the
Purchase Agreement) a certain number of shares of Borrowers common stock, $0.01 par value (the
Common Stock), at each Closing (as defined in that certain Common Stock Purchase Agreement
between Borrower and Seaside 88, LP dated as of August 10, 2010). At the time of each purchase and
sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Borrower shall cause its
transfer agent to deliver to Lender a certificate representing such shares against the cancellation
of indebtedness owed by Borrower under this Note, the amount of such indebtedness cancelled to be
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock being sold at such time multiplied by the Per Share
Purchase Price applicable to such sale; provided, however, that the cancellation of indebtedness
shall be applied only to the outstanding principal balance under this Note and not to any accrued
interest; provided further, that if cancellation of the outstanding principal balance under this
Note is insufficient to pay the entire consideration for the shares of Common Stock being sold at
such time, Lender shall pay the balance of the consideration in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account designated by Borrower. In connection with the
cancellation of indebtedness, Lender shall record an appropriate notation on Exhibit A to this Note
to reflect such cancellation as a payment of principal on this Note. The cancellation of principal
indebtedness shall be applied to the oldest outstanding Advance first. Borrower shall pay all
accrued and unpaid interest on each amount of the principal indebtedness that is cancelled pursuant
to this Section 4.3 at the next quarterly interest payment date as provided in Section 2.
4.4 At any time upon delivery of prior written notice (the Call Notice), Lender may require
Borrower to prepay Advances that have been outstanding for more than twelve months as of the date
of the notice. Lender may not require Borrower to prepay Advances in an aggregate amount exceeding
$200,000,000 (less the aggregate amount of principal indebtedness cancelled pursuant to Section
4.3) pursuant to this Section 4.4. If Lender exercises such call right, Borrower shall, on the
earlier of: (x) 90 days after delivery of the Call Notice or (y) the Maturity Date, prepay the
Advances in the amount set forth in the Call Notice. Any partial prepayment made pursuant to this
Section 4.4 shall be applied to interest first and then to principal. At the time of any prepayment
of principal hereunder, Borrower shall also pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount
prepaid through the date of prepayment.
2.
5. Loan Requests. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from and
after the date hereof and through and including December 31, 2011, Lender shall make available to
Borrower for borrowings by Borrower from time to time a principal amount of Three Hundred and Fifty
Million Dollars ($350,000,000) less the aggregate amount of principal indebtedness cancelled
pursuant to Section 4.3 (each, an Advance). Whenever Borrower desires an Advance hereunder,
Borrower shall notify Lender by facsimile with a transmission confirmation or by electronic mail as
long as a read receipt is requested and received no later than 4:00 p.m. Pacific time, sixty (60)
calendar days prior to the date on which the Advance is requested to be made. At the time of any
Advance (or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal), Lender shall make or cause to be
made, an appropriate notation on the Exhibit A attached hereto reflecting the amount of such
Advance (or the amount of such payment). The outstanding amount of this Note set forth on such
Exhibit A shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof outstanding, but the
failure to record, or any error in so recording, shall not limit or otherwise affect the
obligations of Borrower to make payments of principal of or interest on this Note when due.

this Note, and no consent to any departure by Lender or Borrower and their assigns therefrom, shall
in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Lender and
Borrower, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which given.
13. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right under this Note preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right. The rights of the Lender under this Note against Borrower are not conditional or
contingent on any attempt by the Lender to exercise any of its rights under this Note against
Borrower or any other person.
14. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse, periodically and upon request, and at the

MannKind Receives Commitment to Purchase Up to 18,200,000 Shares
of Common Stock for Cash
VALENCIA, California August 11, 2010 MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD) today announced that
it has entered into an agreement with Seaside 88, LP, a private investment limited partnership, for
the sale of 700,000 shares of common stock to Seaside 88 every two weeks over the course of a year
for a total of up to 18,200,000 shares of MannKind common stock. Each such closing is subject to
certain closing conditions. The initial sale of 700,000 shares is expected to close on September
22, 2010.
The per share purchase price of the shares sold to Seaside 88 will be at an 8% discount to the
volume weighted average trading price of MannKind common stock for the ten consecutive trading days
immediately preceding each closing date (the VWAP). For any closing to take place, the VWAP must
be at least $6.50 per share.
A registration statement relating to the shares of MannKind common stock issuable in the offering
has been filed with, and declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).
A prospectus supplement relating to the offering will be filed with the SEC. Copies of the
prospectus supplement and related prospectus, when available, may be obtained from the SECs
website, www.sec.gov. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation
of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of, these securities in any state or other
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration
or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements related to MannKinds
offering of common stock to Seaside 88 and the anticipated closings related to the offering, that
involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as expected, will, and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon
MannKinds current expectations. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially
from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of these risks and
uncertainties, which include, without limitation, risks related to whether Seaside 88 will be
unable or unwilling to satisfy its obligations under the common stock purchase agreement, whether
the
conditions applicable to any sale of shares of MannKind common stock pursuant to the common
stock purchase agreement, including the minimum purchase price, will be
satisfied, the possibility that the common stock purchase agreement may be terminated prior to the
completion of the various closings contemplated thereunder, the progress, timing and results of
clinical trials, difficulties or delays in seeking or obtaining regulatory approval, the
manufacture of AFREZZA, competition from other pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies,
MannKinds ability to enter into any collaborations or strategic partnerships, intellectual
property matters and stock price volatility. The foregoing list sets forth some, but not all, of
the factors that could affect MannKinds ability to achieve results described in any
forward-looking statements. For additional information about risks and uncertainties MannKind
faces and a discussion of MannKinds financial statements and footnotes, see documents MannKind
files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including MannKinds most recent annual report
on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q and all subsequent periodic reports. You are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of
the date of this press release. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by
this cautionary statement, and MannKind undertakes no obligation and expressly disclaims any duty
to revise or update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date of this press release.

MannKind Receives Commitment from The Mann Group to Reduce Indebtedness
in Return for Up to 18,200,000 Shares of Common Stock
VALENCIA, California August 11, 2010 MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD) today announced that
in addition to the agreement that it has reached with Seaside 88, L.P., which was also announced
today in a companion press release, MannKind has entered into an agreement with The Mann Group LLC,
an entity controlled by MannKinds chief executive officer and principal stockholder, Alfred Mann,
for the parallel sale of shares of common stock to The Mann Group. The Mann Group has committed to
purchase the same number of shares of MannKind common stock as is purchased by Seaside 88, up to a
total of 18,200,000 shares. However, the shares to be purchased by The Mann Group will be priced at
the undiscounted closing bid price of MannKinds common stock on the trading day immediately
preceding the applicable closing date but in any event will be not less than $7.15, which was
yesterdays closing bid price for MannKinds common stock.
The sales to The Mann Group will occur in a series of closings scheduled to occur no more
frequently than every two weeks over the course of a one-year period and are dependent on the
occurrence of sales of an equal number of shares of MannKind common stock pursuant to the agreement
with Seaside 88. The initial sale of 700,000 shares to The Mann Group is expected to close on
September 22, 2010.
The aggregate purchase price for the shares of common stock MannKind issues and sells to The Mann
Group at each closing will be paid by cancellation of principal indebtedness under MannKinds
existing revolving loan arrangement with The Mann Group. At July 31, 2010, the principal amount
outstanding under the loan arrangement was $252 million, and MannKind had $98 million remaining of
available borrowings under the arrangement. If all 26 closings occur, MannKinds debt under The
Mann Group loan arrangement would be reduced by at least $130 million.
The shares of MannKind common stock offered and to be sold to The Mann Group pursuant to this
agreement have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption
from registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall it constitute an offer, solicitation or
sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements related to MannKinds
offering of common stock to The Mann Group, the anticipated closings related to the offering and
the potential aggregate reduction in indebtedness, that involve risks and uncertainties. Words
such as expects, will, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon MannKinds current expectations.
Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such
forward-looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties, which include, without
limitation, risks related to whether The Mann Group will be able to satisfy its obligations under
the common stock purchase agreement, whether the conditions applicable to any sale of shares of
MannKinds common stock pursuant to either common stock purchase agreement will be satisfied, the
possibility that either common stock purchase agreement may be terminated prior to the completion
of the various closings contemplated thereunder, the progress, timing and results of clinical
trials, difficulties or delays in seeking or obtaining regulatory approval, the manufacture of
AFREZZA, competition from other pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies, MannKinds ability to
enter into any collaborations or strategic partnerships, intellectual property matters and stock
price volatility. The foregoing list sets forth some, but not all, of the factors that could
affect MannKinds ability to achieve results described in any forward-looking statements. For

financial statements and footnotes, see documents MannKind files with the Securities and Exchange
