Warrant No.:                     

Number of Common Shares:                     

Date of Issuance: [], 2010 (“Issuance Date”)

Oxygen Biotherapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [INVESTOR NAME], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Shares (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Shares issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, but not after 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), [            (            )] (subject to adjustment as provided herein) fully paid, nonassessable Common Shares (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 16. This Warrant is the Warrant to Purchase Common Shares issued pursuant to (i) Section 1 of that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated as of May 4, 2010 (the “Subscription Date”), by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Subscription Agreement”) and (ii) the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File number 333-165733) (as amended and supplemented through April 7, 2010, the “Registration Statement”).

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Issuance Date, in whole or in part, by delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. Within two (2) days following the Exercise Notice, the Holder shall make payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or provided the conditions for cashless exercise set forth in Section 1(e) are satisfied, by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(e)). The Holder shall be required to deliver the original Warrant (or an affidavit of lost Warrant and indemnification undertaking in the case of a lost or stolen Warrant as provided in Section 7(b)) in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On


or before the first (1st) Business Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third (3rd) Business Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall issue, or cause to be issued, and cause to be delivered a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends, in the name of the Holder or, upon the written order of the Holder, in such name or names as the Holder may designate. The Holder, or any person permissibly so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date. The Company shall, upon the written request of the Holder, use its best efforts to deliver, or cause to be delivered, Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (“DTC”) by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depositary Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”). If such Warrant Shares are not credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares have not been issued, as the case may be, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to all rights of a holder of such number of Warrant Shares that may legally be granted by contract. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. The Company shall pay any and all transfer taxes and transfer agent fees which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant.

(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $5.32 per Warrant Share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(c) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed.

(d) Limitations On Exercise. The Company shall not effect the exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such Person (together with such Person’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise, unless such Person (together with such Person’s affiliates) beneficially owns in excess of the Maximum Percentage on the Issuance Date. For purposes of Persons (together with such Person’s affiliates) who beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Percentage on the Issuance Date, the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates shall include the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude Common Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible shares or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of

 

-2-


outstanding Common Shares as reflected in the most recent of (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding Common Shares was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed, corrected and implemented in a manner so as to effectuate the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to any successor Holder of this Warrant.

(e) Limited Cashless Exercise. If an Exercise Notice is delivered at a time when the Registration Statement (or any subsequent registration statement applicable to the Warrant Shares) permitting the registered issuance of the Warrant Shares is not then effective or the prospectus forming a part thereof is not then available, then the Holder shall be entitled to utilize cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows (a “Cashless Exercise”):

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

A = the VWAP for the five (5) Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the date of delivery of the Exercise Notice.

B = the Exercise Price.

Upon receipt of an Exercise Notice to which this Section 1(d) is applicable, the Company shall notify the Holder within one (1) Trading Day of such applicability and the calculation of the Warrant Shares issuable upon the noticed exercise of the Warrant utilizing cashless exercise, and confirm the Holder’s desire to complete the exercise of the Warrant pursuant to this Section 1(d).

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

(f) Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date in compliance with the terms of this Section 1, a certificate for the number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Common Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of Common Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a

 

-3-


Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Common Shares, times (B) the Closing Sale Price on the Share Delivery Date.

(g) Absolute and Unconditional Obligation of Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company’s obligations to (i) issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with and subject to the terms hereof (including the limitations set forth in Section 1(d) above), and (ii) abide by the prohibitions set forth in the Subscription Agreement and described in Section 1(h) below, are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance that might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit the 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 (x) timely deliver certificates representing Common Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof or (y) abide by the prohibitions set forth in the Subscription Agreement and described in Section 1(h) below.

(h) Certain Prohibited Actions. Notwithstanding the Company’s agreement set forth in the Subscription Agreement to not (a) issue or sell any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares that are directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares at a price which resets as a function of market price of the Common Shares at the time of such exercise, exchange or conversion, or (b) issue or sell any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares at a conversion, exchange or exercise price which varies or may vary after issuance with the market price of the Common Shares, including by way of one or more reset(s) to any fixed price, including any at the market offering (as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act), if the Company enters into any of the foregoing transactions, despite the prohibition set forth above, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised for purposes of Sections 2 and 3 below.

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

(a) Adjustment upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any share split, share dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by any reverse share split,

 

-4-


recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(b) Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of share appreciation rights or phantom share rights to all shareholders), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares so as to protect the rights of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(b) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.

(c) Calculations. All calculations made under this Section 2 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a Common Share, as applicable.

3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS.

(a) If at any time or from time to time the holders of Common Shares of the Company (or any other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received or become entitled to receive, without payment therefor:

(i) Common Shares or other securities including any which may at any time be directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares, or any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution (other than an issuance due to a subdivision covered in Section 2(a) above);

(ii) any other assets, including cash paid or payable, including any declared and paid cash dividends;

(iii) Common Shares or additional shares or other securities or property (including cash) by way of spinoff, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or otherwise (other than Common Shares pursuant to Section 2(a) above); or

(iv) Promissory notes or other evidence of indebtedness of the Company to the holders of Common Shares.

then and in each such case, the Holder hereof will, upon the exercise of this Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of Common Shares receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of Common Shares and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (iii) above) which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had such Holder been the holder of record of such Common Shares as of the date on which holders of Common Shares received or became entitled to receive such shares or other securities and property, provided, however, (x) in the event that the holders of Common Shares have received options, warrants or rights that have expired prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such options, warrants or rights and (y) in the event of a distribution consisting of cash as referred to in clause (ii) above, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such distribution will be proportionately reduced by the amount of the distribution per Common Share such Holder would have been entitled to receive had such Holder been the holder of record of such Common

 

-5-


Shares as of the date on which holders of Common Shares received or became entitled to receive such cash distribution.

(b) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, including the expiration date of any applicable options, warrants or rights. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Transfer Agent. All calculations made under this Section 3 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of any security, as applicable.

4. FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

(a) The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(a) and agrees that 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, the number of Warrant Shares or securities or other assets, as applicable, of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) which it would have been entitled to receive as a result of such merger, consolidation or disposition of assets as if it had been a holder upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction of the number of Common Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity); provided, however, that if the Fundamental Transaction involves the acquisition by the Successor Entity of all of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company for cash, the right to exercise this Warrant shall terminate and no longer be exercisable after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, it being understood that the Holder shall retain its rights under the sixth sentence of this Section 4(a) in accordance with the provisions thereof. For purposes of any such exercise, 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 Common Share 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 Shares 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. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 4(a) and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, at the request of the Holder delivered before the ninetieth (90th) day after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or the Successor Entity) shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder, within five (5) Business Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on

 

-6-


the date of such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of this Section, “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg using (i) a price per Common Share equal to the Weighted Average Price of the Common Shares for the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (ii) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of the date of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and (iii) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 30-day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg determined as of the Trading Day next following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will have the right to deliver to the Company an Exercise Notice pursuant to which the exercise of this Warrant shall occur immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, provided that such consummation occurs prior to the Expiration Date. The provisions of this Section 4(a) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant. All calculations under this Section 4(a) shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the number of Common Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of Common Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

(b) Subsequent Equity Sales.

(i) If the Company shall at any time issue Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire Common Shares, at a price per share less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issuance (if the holder of the Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive Common Shares at a price less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price), then, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal such lower price, but the number of Warrant Shares which the Holder may acquire under this Warrant will not be affected thereby. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Shares or Common Share Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Share or Common Share Equivalent subject to this Section, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or the applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms; provided, that for the purpose of this Section 4(b), Common Shares, Options, Rights, Convertible Securities and Common Share Equivalents shall be deemed to exclude (1) shares of Common Stock, units or other securities to be sold pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and to any other investor in the Offering (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), (2) stock options or shares of restricted stock issued to employees, directors and consultants pursuant to the Company’s 1999 Amended Stock Plan, as amended, (3) shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any options, warrants, debt instruments or other securities disclosed as outstanding in the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) or upon the conversion or exchange of any options, warrants, debt instruments or other securities disclosed as outstanding in the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, (4) any shares of Common Stock or other securities, including securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, issued as consideration for mergers, acquisitions, other business combinations, or strategic alliances, occurring after the date of this Warrant; (5) the issuance by the Company of Common

 

-7-


Stock as consideration under Amendment No. 2 to the Securities Purchase Agreement between the Company and Vatea Fund entered into prior to the execution of this Warrant; (6) the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities pursuant to a plan, contract or instruction that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) that was in effect prior to the date hereof; or (7) any shares issued pursuant to a stock split, stock dividend or other similar recapitalization or reorganization.

As used in this Warrant, the term “Common Share Equivalents” means any securities of the Company which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Shares, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Shares or other securities that entitle the holder to receive, directly or indirectly, Common Shares.

(ii) For purposes of this paragraph (b), the following paragraphs (b)(ii)(l) to (b)(ii)(7) shall also be applicable:

(1) Issuance of Rights or Options. In case at any time the Company shall in any manner grant (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any Options to subscribe for or to purchase Common Shares or Convertible Securities, whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Shares are issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus (z), in the case of such Options that relate to Convertible Securities, the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options, then the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of granting of such Options or the issuance of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Exercise Price. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b)(ii)(3), no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Shares or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(2) Issuance of Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner issue (directly and not by assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Shares are issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration) of (x) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (y) the aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total number of Common Shares issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the total

 

-8-


maximum number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Exercise Price, provided that (a) except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b)(ii)(3), no adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Shares upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and (b) no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the Exercise Price have been made pursuant to the other provisions of paragraph (b). No adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

(3) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. Upon the happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to in paragraph (b)(ii)(l) of this Section 4, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in paragraphs (b)(ii)(l) or (b)(ii)(2), or the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in paragraphs (b)(ii)(l) or (b)(ii)(2) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares shall change at any time (including, but not limited to, changes under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be reduced to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold.

(4) Stock Dividends. Subject to the provisions of this paragraph (b), in case the Company shall declare a dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Company (other than the Common Shares) payable in Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities, then any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without consideration.

(5) Consideration for Stock. In case any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the gross amount received by the Company therefor. In case any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. In case any Options shall be issued in connection with the issue and sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. If Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold by the Company and, in connection therewith, other Options or Convertible Securities (the “Additional Rights”) are issued, then the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company shall be reduced by the fair market value of the Additional Rights (as determined using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model or another method mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder). The Board of Directors of the Company shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Holder as to the fair market value of the Additional Rights. In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value of the Additional Rights, the Company and the Holder shall jointly select an appraiser who is experienced in such matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne evenly by the Company and the Holder.

(6) Record Date. In case the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the Common Shares deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

(7) Treasury Shares. The number of Common Shares outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or retirement thereof) shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this paragraph (b).
