[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

Onyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

4.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2016

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 4.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2016 (the “ Notes ”) of the Company issued under an Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2009 (as amended, modified and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated August 12, 2009, the “ Indenture ”) between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “ Trustee ”). The terms of the Note include those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “ TIA ”), and those set forth in this Note. This Note is subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated.

     1.  Interest .

     This Note shall bear interest at a rate of 4.00% per annum on the principal amount. Interest on this Note shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 12, 2009. Interest will be payable semi-annually, in arrears, on each February 15 and August 15, beginning on February 15, 2010, to holders of record at the Close of Business on the immediately preceding February 1 and August 1, respectively. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If a payment date is not a Business Day, payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest (including Additional Interest, if any) will accrue for the intervening period.

     Interest (including Additional Interest, if any) will cease to accrue on the Notes upon the Maturity Date, their redemption by the Company or their conversion or repurchase by the Company at the option of the Holder.

     2.  Method of Payment .

     Payment of the principal of the Notes shall be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payment of interest including Additional Interest, if any, on Certificated Notes shall be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address appears in the Security Register; provided , however , that Holders with Notes in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $5.0 million shall be paid, at their written election, by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Notes are registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, all payments with respect to the Notes shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

     3.  Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent .

     Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying Agent, Registrar and Conversion Agent. The Company or any Affiliate of the Company may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or Conversion Agent.

     4.  Indenture .

     The Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit the ability of the Company to incur other debt, secured or unsecured.

     5.  Redemption at the Option of the Company .

     The Notes are redeemable in whole, or from time to time in part, at any time on or after August 2
