Represents the fair value of common stock warrants outstanding that may require cash settlement under certain circumstances. The liability primarily relates to warrants sold in connection with the Company’s July 2012 public offering of common stock and warrants. These warrants entitle the holders to purchase up to
1.9 million
shares of common stock at an exercise price of
$20.00
per share. The warrants are set to expire in July 2017. The fair value of the warrants were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The decrease in the fair value of the common stock warrant liabilities as of
March 31, 2017
, as compared to the fair value at
December 31, 2016
, was attributable to the warrants being out-of-the money combined with the short remaining contractual term.
|

|
In connection with certain acquisition, the Company may be required to pay future consideration that is contingent upon the achievement of specified development, regulatory approval or sales-based milestone events. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities on the acquisition date using a probability-weighted income approach, which reflects the probability and timing of future payments. This fair value measurement is based on significant Level 3 inputs such as the anticipated timelines and probability of achieving development, regulatory approval or sales-based milestone events and projected revenues. The resulting probability-weighted cash flows are discounted at risk-adjusted rates. Subsequent to the acquisition date, at each reporting period prior to settlement, the Company revalues these liabilities by performing a review of the assumptions listed above and record increases or decreases in the fair value of these contingent consideration liabilities. In the absence of any significant changes in key assumptions, the quarterly determination of fair values of these contingent consideration liabilities would primarily reflect the passage of time. Significant judgment is used in determining Level 3 inputs and fair value measurements as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent reporting period. Updates to assumptions could have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations in any given period and actual results may differ from estimates. For example, significant increases in the probability of achieving a milestone or projected revenues would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement while significant decreases in the estimated probability of achieving a milestone or projected revenues would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant increases in the discount rate or in the anticipated timelines would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement while significant decreases in the discount rate or anticipated timelines would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement. The potential contingent consideration payments required upon achievement of development, regulatory approval and sales-based milestones related to the Company’s acquisition of ZX008 range from
zero
if none of the milestones are achieved to a maximum of
$95.0 million
(undiscounted).

|

provided
that the Consultant was not in breach of this Agreement, acted in good faith and in a manner the Consultant reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company and, if any criminal proceedings are involved, had no reasonable cause to believe the Consultant’s conduct was unlawful. The Company’s obligations under the foregoing sentence are conditioned upon the Consultant: (i) providing the Company with prompt notice of any such claims; (ii) allowing the Company to control the defense and settlement of such claims; (iii) providing the Company with the information and assistance necessary for such defense and settlement of the claims; and (iv) not entering into any settlement with respect to such claims without the express consent of the Company.

|
c.

Other costs of the arbitration, including the cost of any record or transcripts of the arbitration, AAA’s administrative fees, the fee of the arbitrator, and all other fees and costs, shall be borne by the Company.

This Release shall not limit either party’s right to obtain any provisional remedy, including, without limitation, injunctive or similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect their rights and interests pending the outcome of arbitration, including without limitation injunctive relief, in any court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 1281.8 or any similar statute of an applicable jurisdiction. Seeking any such relief shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to compel arbitration. Both the Consultant and the Company expressly waive their right to a jury trial.

1.
|
I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Zogenix, Inc.;
|
2.
|
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
|
3.
|
Based on my knowledge, the consolidated financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
|
4.
|
The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:
|
(a)
|
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
|
(b)
|
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;
|
(c)
|
Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and
|
(d)
|
Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and
|
5.
|
The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
|
(a)
|
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
|
(b)
|
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
