                                                                            Original Issue Date September __, 2009

 

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DOR BIOPHARMA, INC., a Delaware corporation (the " Company "), hereby certifies that ___________________(theHolder ”), is entitled to purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time commencing after the Original Issue Date and expiring at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the fifth (5th) anniversary after the Original Issue Date (as such date may be changed pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the “ Expiration Date ” being September __, 2014, ______________________ (________), fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company (the “ Warrant Shares ”) for a per share exercise price equal to $0.278 per share (the “ Per Share Warrant Price ”). The Per Share Warrant Price is subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Warrant shall have the meanings specified in Section 9, unless the context otherwise requires.

 

1.            Exercise of Warrant .

 

(a)           This Warrant may be exercised, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, commencing after the Original Issue Date and expiring at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date (with the Exercise Notice at the end of this Warrant duly executed) at the address set forth in Section 10 hereof, together with payment of the Per Share Warrant Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares to which such exercise relates made by delivery to the Company of one or more types of Permitted Consideration.

 

 

 


 

 

(b)           If this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company will deliver to the Holder within ten Trading Days of the date such Holder delivers to the Company this Warrant and an Exercise Notice, together with the payment of the aggregate Per Share Warrant Price for such exercise, a new Warrant covering the Warrant Shares which have not been exercised.  By the expiration of the third Trading Day following the Holder’s delivery of a Warrant, together with an Exercise Notice and the payment of the aggregate Per Share Warrant Price for such exercise, the Company will (i) issue a certificate or certificates in the name of the Holder for the largest number of whole shares of the Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled and, if this Warrant is exercised in whole, in lieu of any fractional share of the Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled, pay to the Holder cash in an amount equal to the fair value of such fractional share (determined by reference to the closing sales price of the Common Stock on the date of the Exercise Notice), and (ii) deliver the other securities and properties receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, or the proportionate part thereof if this Warrant is exercised in part, pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant.

 

(c) If, six months after the Original Issue Date, the Warrant Shares to be issued are not registered and available for resale by the Holder pursuant to a registration statement in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement entered into on the date hereof, then the Holder may, at its election exercised in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making a cash payment of Permitted Consideration, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula:

 

Net Number = (A x B) – (A x C)

B

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A=the total number of Warrant Shares with respect

to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

B=the average of the closing sales prices for the five

Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including)

the day that the Holder delivers the Exercise Notice at issue.

 

C=the Per Share Warrant Price;

 

provided, however that Holder may not exercise this Warrant in whole or in part pursuant to this Section 1(c) if a registration statement has been filed but the Holder is not permitted to use the prospectus included in such registration statement.

 

(d) If, by the third Trading Day after the date that the Holder delivers an Exercise Notice, together with the payment of the aggregate Per Share Warrant Price for such exercise, the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 1(b), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

(e)           If, by the third Trading Day after the date that the Holder delivers an Exercise Notice, together with the payment of the aggregate Per Share Warrant Price for such exercise, the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 1(b), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (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 which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a " Buy-In "), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder.  The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise, the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Each delivery of an Exercise Notice will constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the limitation set forth in this paragraph and determined that issuance of the full number of Warrant Shares requested in such Exercise Notice is permitted under this paragraph. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 3. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company.

 

2.            Company’s Option to Change Expiration Date .

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that (i) the closing sales price per share of Common Stock is in excess of 300% of the Per Share Warrant Price (as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3) for any twenty (20) Trading Days during any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days, (ii) the Warrant Shares are either registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement naming the Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder (and the prospectus thereunder is available for use by the Holder as to all then available Warrant Shares) or freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act, as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter addressed and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Holder and the transfer agent for the Common Stock, during the entire twenty (20) Trading Day period referenced in (i) above through the expiration of the Call Date as set forth in the Company’s notice pursuant to this Section (the “Call Condition Period” ), and (iii) the Company shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Warrant and under the Purchase Agreement, then, subject

to the conditions set forth in this Section, the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to change the Expiration Date to 5:00 P.M., New York City time on the Holder’s warrants on the date that is thirty (30) days after written notice thereof (a “Call Notice” ) is received by the Holder (the “Call Date” ) at the address last shown on the records of the Company for the Holder or given by the Holder to the Company for the purpose of notice; provided, that the conditions to giving such notice must be in effect at all times during the Call Condition Period or any such notice shall be null and void.  The Company and the Holder agree that, if and to the extent Section 1(f) or (g) of this Warrant would restrict the ability of the Holder to exercise this Warrant in the event of a delivery of a Call Notice, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Call Notice, the Call Notice shall be deemed automatically amended to apply only to such portion of this Warrant as may be exercised by the Holder by the Call Date in accordance with Section 1(f) and (g).  The Holder will promptly (and, in any event, prior to the Call Date) notify the Company in writing following receipt of a Call Notice if Section 1(f) or (g) would restrict its exercise of the Warrant, specifying therein the number of Warrant Shares so restricted.

 

3.            Certain Adjustments .  The Per Share Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 3.

 

(a)  If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Per Share Warrant Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

(b) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (1) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the
