FORM OF COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

EMMAUS LIFE SCIENCES, INC.

 

Warrant Shares:

Initial Exercise Date: June 10, 2014

Warrant No.

 

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received,                                      (the “Purchaser”) or its registered assigns (the Purchaser or its registered assigns, the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on September 11, 2018 (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), up to              shares (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock.  The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

Except as specifically otherwise provided herein, the Warrant Shares shall bear the same terms and conditions as such securities described under the caption “Description of Common Stock” in the Memorandum and as designated in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and any amendments thereto, and the holders shall have such registration rights under the Securities Act for the Warrant Shares as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.

 

Section 1.                                           Definitions.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated September 11, 2013, between the Company and the Purchaser.

 



 

Section 2.                                           Exercise.

 

a)                                     Exercise of Warrant.  Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and until 5:00 p.m., Los Angeles time, on the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the notice of exercise (“Notice of Exercise”) in the form annexed hereto and, within three (3) Trading Days of the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, payment to the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank or, if available, pursuant to the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below. As used herein, “Trading Day” means a day on which the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the OTC Bulletin Board (or any successors to any of the foregoing) are open for trading.  No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise form be required.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such notice.  The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to register any Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (in whole or in part) in the name of any person who acquired such Warrant Shares or this Warrant (in whole or in part) in a transaction that contravenes the restrictions on transfer of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares set forth in this Warrant.

 

b)                                     Exercise Price.  The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $3.50, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

 

c)                                      Cashless Exercise.  If at any time after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, there is no effective Registration Statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) x (X)] by (A), where:

 

(A) = the VWAP (as defined below) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise;

 

2



 

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

 

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise, in whole or in part, were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

For purposes of this Warrant, the term “VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on the NYSE MKT, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the New York Stock Exchange (each, a “Trading Market”), the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on a Trading Market and is then listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the OTC Bulletin Board, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Link LLC (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

d)                                     Mechanics of Exercise.

 

i.                                          Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise.  Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery of one or more certificates, as requested by the Holder, representing such Warrant Shares to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is three (3) Trading Days after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (B) receipt by the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares (unless exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to Section 2(c), and (C) surrender of this Warrant (if required) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price (or by cashless exercise, if permitted) and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(d)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, having been paid.

 

ii.                                       Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant

 

3



 

Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

iii.                                    Rescission Rights.  If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

iv.                                   Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise.  In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if (A) the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the second Trading Day following the Warrant Share Delivery Date, (B) as a result of such failure, either the Holder or the Holder’s broker is required to purchase in an open market transaction or otherwise shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (such purchase of such shares of Common Stock being required for such delivery being a “Buy-In”), and (C) the total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) payable by the Holder for such Buy-In exceeds the proceeds to the Holder from such sale of such Warrant Shares (such excess being the “Excess Buy-In Cost”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder the amount of the Excess Buy-In Cost within five (5) Trading Days of the second Trading Day following the Warrant Share Delivery Date; provided, however, that the obligation of the Company to make payment of any Excess Buy-in Cost shall only apply to the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in respect of which the Holder satisfied the requirements hereunder in respect of such exercise, and in respect of any portion of this Warrant in respect of which the Holder did not so comply with such requirements, the Company shall reinstate to this Warrant the number of Warrant Shares represented by such portion of this Warrant for which such requirements were not so satisfied; provided further, however, that, in the event the sale by the Holder giving rise to the Buy-In is executed at less than a then-current market price, the Excess Buy-In Cost shall be equal to the lesser of (x) the Excess Buy-In Cost as determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 2(d)(iv) and (y) the amount by which (1) the total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) payable by the Holder for such Buy-In exceeds (2) the product obtained by multiplying the VWAP on the date of such sale transaction (or, if such date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day) by the number of Warrant Shares sold in such sale transaction.  For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000.  The Holder shall provide the Company prompt written notice indicating the occurrence of a Buy-in and the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

v.                                      No Fractional Shares or Scrip.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.  As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise (after aggregating all the Warrant Shares then being purchased by the Holder upon exercise of

 

4



 

Warrants held by the Holder), the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

vi.                                   Charges, Taxes and Expenses.  Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.  The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise.

 

vii.                                Closing of Books.  The Company will not, except upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Company, close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

Section 3.                                           Certain Adjustments.

 

a)                                     Stock Dividends and Subdivisions; Combinations; Reclassifications. If the Company, at any time and from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

b)                                     Adjustment for Diluting Issuances.

 

i.                  Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

 

A.                        If the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities (as defined herein)) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction

 

5



 

of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.

 

B.                  If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b)(ii), are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this Section 3(b)(i)(B) shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security, or (ii) the Exercise Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.

 

C.                  If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b)(ii) (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii)) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the date hereof), are revised after the date hereof as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Section 3(b)(i)) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

 

D.                  Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b)(ii), the Exercise Price shall be

 

6



 

readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) never been issued.

 

E.                   If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Exercise Price provided for in this Section 3(b)(i)(E) shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in clauses (B) and (C) of this subsection).  If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Exercise Price that would result under the terms of this subsection at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Exercise Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

 

ii.                                       Adjustment of Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

 

A.                  Adjustment of Warrant Shares.  The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 3(b)(ii).  Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 3(b)(ii), the registered holder shall (until another such adjustment) thereafter be entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (a) the product of the number of Warrant Shares multiplied by the initial Exercise Price by (b) the adjusted Exercise Price.

 

B.                  Adjustment of the Exercise Price for Common Stock Issuances.  In the event the Company shall at any time after the date hereof issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (excluding Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3(b)(i)), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the lower of (i) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or (ii) $2.50, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 3(b)(ii)(D).

 

C.                  Adjustment of the Exercise Price for Options or Convertible Securities Issuances.  In the event the Company shall at any time after the date hereof issue Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Subsection 3(b)(i), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 3(b)(ii)(D).

 

7



 

D.                  Exercise Adjustment Formula.  Any reductions in the Exercise Price pursuant to Sections 3(b)(ii)(B) or 3(b)(ii)(C) shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:

 

EP2 = EP1 * (A + B) ÷ (A + C)

 

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

 

“EP2” shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock

 

“EP1” shall mean the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

 

“A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock assuming conversion of all warrants to purchase Common Stock issued pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Confidential Private Placement Memorandum dated September 9, 2013, as amended and supplemented, that are outstanding immediately prior to such issue, including, without limitation, this Warrant;

 

“B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to EP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by EP1); and

 

“C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.

 

iii.                                    Determination of Consideration.  For purposes of this Section 3(b), the consideration received by the Company for the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

 

A.                  Cash and Property:  Such consideration shall: (i) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest; (ii)                                                insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; and (iii) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

B.                  Options and Convertible Securities.  The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 3(b)(i), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing: (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise

 

8



 

of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

iv.                                   Term of Adjustment for Diluting Issuances.  The requirement to perform adjustments for diluting issuances under this Section 3(b) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect on the earliest to occur of the following: (i) immediately prior to a firm commitment underwritten public offering by the Company of shares of its Common Stock which results in aggregate cash proceeds to the Company of not less than $20,000,000 and in connection therewith the Company lists its Common Stock on a national securities exchange provided that the price per share of such Common Stock is at least $5.00 at the time of such listing or (ii) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date hereof.

 

v.                                      Exempted Securities.  “Exempted Securities” shall mean (1) the following shares of Common Stock and (2) shares of Common Stock deemed issued pursuant to the following Options and Convertible Securities:

 

A. all Options, Convertible Securities and Promissory Notes outstanding as of the Private Placement Closing Date;

 

B. shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or similar transaction or other distribution on shares of Common Stock;

 

C. shares of Common Stock or Options issued to employees or directors of, or consultants or advisors to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or authorized to be issued pursuant to a plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”);

 

D. shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities actually issued upon the exercise of Options or shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities or Promissory Notes, in each case provided such issuance is pursuant to the terms of such Option or Convertible Security or in the case of Promissory Notes such issuance is not below the fair market value of Common Stock as determined by the Board, provided that the Company may not issue more than 2.55 million shares of Common Stock at a fair market value less than $2.50 in exchange of Promissory Notes under this clause (iv);

 

E. shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued to banks, equipment lessors or other financial institutions, or to real property lessors, pursuant to a debt financing, equipment leasing or real property leasing transaction approved by the Board that do not exceed an aggregate of $500,000 of the Company’s shares of Common Stock at the fair market value of Common Stock as determined by the Board (including shares

 

9



 

underlying (directly or indirectly) any such Options or Convertible Securities);

 

F. shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued to suppliers or third party service providers in connection with the provision of goods or services pursuant to transactions approved by the Board that do not exceed an aggregate of $500,000 of the Company’s shares of Common Stock at the fair market value of Common Stock as determined by the Board (including shares underlying (directly or indirectly) any such Options or Convertible Securities);

 

G. shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation by the Company by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or other reorganization or to a joint venture agreement, provided that such issuances are approved by the Board and do not exceed an aggregate of 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at the time immediately preceding such transaction (including shares underlying (directly or indirectly) any such Options or Convertible Securities); and

 

H. shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued in connection with sponsored research, collaboration, technology license, development, marketing or other similar agreements or strategic partnerships approved by the Board that do not exceed an aggregate of $500,000 of the Company’s shares of Common Stock at the fair market value of Common Stock as determined by the Board (including shares underlying (directly or indirectly) any such Options or Convertible Securities).

 

c)                                      [RESERVED]

 

d)                                     Pro Rata Distributions.  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the board of directors of the Company in good faith.  In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.  At the time of any such distribution, the Company shall make appropriate reserves to ensure the timely performance of the provisions of this subsection or an adjustment to the Exercise Price, which shall be effective as of the day following the record date for such distribution.

e)                                      Fundamental Transaction.

 

i.                                          For purposes of this Warrant, the term “Fundamental Transaction” means a transaction whereby (1) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (2) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (3) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (4) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (5) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination).

 

ii.                                       If at any time while this Warrant is outstanding the Company or its successor engages in, or is the subject of, one or more Fundamental Transactions, then, in respect of each such Fundamental Transaction, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable (or any successor to this Warrant arising from a prior Fundamental Transaction) immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.

 

iii.                                    For purposes of any such exercise described in clause (ii) this Section 3(e), the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction.

 

iv.                                   Prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) pursuant to written agreements in

 

11



 

form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

 

f)                                       Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be; provided, however, that in such case any adjustment that would otherwise be required then to be made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustment so carried forward, shall amount to at least one cent or 1/100th of a share. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

g)                                      Notice to Holder.

 

i.                                          Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall prepare and promptly mail to the Holder a certificate, executed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and approved by the independent members of the Board of Directors of the Company, setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth, in reasonable detail, the events requiring such adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated, including, but not limited to, a statement of (i) the Exercise Price at the time in effect, and (ii) the number of additional or fewer securities and the type and amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be receivable upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

ii.                                       Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any

 

12



 

consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register (as defined in Section 4(c)) of the Company, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified (or such lesser number of calendar days to the extent such lesser number complies with any law, regulation, or by-law of the Company applicable to the sending of such notice to the stockholders of the Company), a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.  To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.  The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice  except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

 

iii.                                    Notice Deemed Given.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, notice shall be deemed given in the event the Company makes a public disclosure via the SEC EDGAR website within any applicable time period for notice as provided for herein.

 

Section 4.                                           Transfer of Warrant.

 

a)                                     Transferability.  Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Sections 4(d) and 4(e) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.  Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.  The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

b)                                     New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice

 

13



 

specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney.  Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Initial Exercise Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

c)                                      Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time.  The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

d)                                     Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, require the transferee to agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of the Subscription Agreement that related to the Purchaser. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to register this Warrant or the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise (in whole or in part) in the name of any person who acquired all or any part of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares directly or indirectly in a transaction that contravenes the restrictions set forth in Section 4(e) hereof.

 

e)                                      Representation by the Holder.  The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.  The Holder covenants that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will (i) directly or indirectly pledge or otherwise transfer or assign to a third party  this Warrant (in whole or in part) or any of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise as security for a margin loan or other loan at any time prior to the earliest of (A) the date the Common Stock of the Company is listed for trading on a national securities exchange, (B) the date the Common Stock of the Company is quoted on an automated quotation system,  (C) the date the Common Stock of the Company listed or quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, or (D) the date prices for the Common Stock of the Company are first reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Link LLC (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) or (ii) engage in any transactions in the Common Stock or other securities of the Company (including Short Sales (as defined below)) the intent and purpose of which is to cause a decrease in the price of such Common Stock or other securities on any Trading Market, the OTC Bulletin Board, or other market on which such Common Stock or other securities is then listed or quoted.  For purposes of this Section 4(e), the term “Short Sales” means, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

Section 5.                                           Miscellaneous.

 

a)                                     No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise.  This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i); provided, however, if at any time prior to the expiration of the warrants and their exercise, any of the following events shall occur: (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company or (ii) the Company shall offer to all the holders of its common stock any additional shares of capital stock of the company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe therefor, or (iii) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the company (other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an entirety shall be proposed; then, in any one or more of said events, then the Company shall give written notice of such event to the Holder no later than the date of prior notice of such event required to be given to the stockholders of the Company under any applicable law, regulation, rule of any exchange on which the Company’s shares of Common Stock are then quoted, or by-law of the Company, but in no event later than twenty (20) calendar days prior to the date fixed as a record date of the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to such dividend, distribution, convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale.  Such notices shall specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be.  Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any action taken in connection with the declaration or payment of any such dividend, or the issuance of any convertible or exchangeable securities, or subscription rights, options or warrants, or any proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale.

 

b)                                     Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

c)                                      Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc.  If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.  For purposes of this Warrant, the term “Business Day” means days other than Saturdays, Sundays, and days in respect of which banks in the State of California are authorized to be closed.

 

d)                                     Authorized Shares.

 

The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.  The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares

 

15



 

upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant.  The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.  The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

e)                                      Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Subscription Agreement.

 

f)                                       Restrictions.  The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

g)                                      Nonwaiver and Expenses.  No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date.  If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

16



 

h)                                     Notices.  Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with Section 12 of the Subscription Agreement.

 

i)                                         Limitation of Liability.  No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

j)                                        Remedies.  The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant in respect of which monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by the Company of the provisions of this Warrant and not resulting from failure of the Holder to satisfy the requirements of this Warrant applicable to the Holder, and in respect of any such action for specific performance by the Holder under such circumstances, the Company hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate in respect of such loss.

 

k)                                     Successors and Assigns.  Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.  The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

l)                                         Applicable Law.  This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts to be wholly-performed within said State, and without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

 

m)                                 Amendment.  This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

 

n)                                     Severability.  Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

o)                                     Headings.  The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
