Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On January 26, 2009, we entered into Purchase Agreements and a Revenue Sharing Agreement with VetCure Inc., a California corporation, (“VetCure”), our Director, Robert Burlingame, and an accredited investor, whereby VetCure and its affiliates agreed to make a $3 million investment in our Company in exchange for the exclusive rights to distribute and sell our Vetericyn Wound Care product for animals in the United States and an aggregate of 3 million shares of common stock with warrants. We intend to use the $3 million cash infusion as general working capital and to help accelerate our commercial activities in the United States, China, Europe, Mexico, India and select Middle East countries.
We entered into the following agreements:
Purchase Agreement with Robert Burlingame, a Director of the Company:
On January 26, 2009, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Robert Burlingame (the “Burlingame Agreement”). Mr. Burlingame has served as a member of our Board of Directors since November 2006. Pursuant to the terms of the Burlingame Agreement, Mr. Burlingame agreed to make a $1 million investment in our Company, which will be paid in the following installments:
    $167,000 on January 26, 2009;
 
    $167,000 on March 2, 2009; and
 
    $666,000 no later than August 1, 2009.
In exchange for his investment, we have agreed to issue to Mr. Burlingame a total of 796,813 shares of our common stock in three tranches, pro rata to the investment amounts paid by Mr. Burlingame on each date that Mr. Burlingame provides funds.
In addition, we agreed to issue to Mr. Burlingame Series A Warrants to purchase a total of 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.87 per share in three tranches pro rata to the investment amounts paid. The Series A Warrants are exercisable after six months and have a five-year term. The Series A Warrants also have a cashless feature in the event the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants are not registered.
Purchase Agreement with Non-Affiliated Investor:
On January 26, 2009, we entered into a second Purchase Agreement with a non-affiliated accredited Investor (the “Non-Affiliate Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Non-Affiliate Agreement, the Investor has agreed to make a $2 million investment in our Company, which will be paid in the following installments:
    $333,000 on January 23, 2009;
 
    $333,000 on March 2, 2009; and
 
    $1,334,000 no later than August 1, 2009.
In exchange for this investment, we agreed to issue to the Investor a total of 1,769,912 shares of common stock in three tranches, pro rata to the investment amounts paid by the Investor on each date the Investor provides funds.
In addition, we agreed to issue to the Investor Series A Warrants to purchase a total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.87 per share in three tranches pro rata to the investment amounts paid. The Series A Warrants are exercisable after six months and have a five-year term. The Series A Warrants also have a cashless feature in the event the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants are not registered.
We also agreed to issue to the Investor Series B Warrants to purchase an additional 2,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.13 per share in three tranches pro rata to the investment amounts paid by the Investor. The Series B Warrants are exercisable after six months and have a three-year term. In addition, for every two shares of common stock the Investor purchases upon exercise of a Series B Warrant, the Investor will receive an additional Series C Warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The Series C Warrant is exercisable after six months and will have an exercise price of $1.94 and a five-year term. We will only be obligated to issue Series C Warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock.
Revenue Sharing Distribution Agreement with VetCure
On January 26, 2009, we entered into a Revenue Sharing Distribution Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with VetCure, appointing them as the exclusive distributor of our Vetericyn Wound Care product for animals in the United States. Pursuant to the terms of the Distribution Agreement, VetCure may distribute Vetericyn Wound Care only to persons and entities located and taking delivery within the United States. The Distribution Agreement does not limit our marketing or distribution activities or our ability to appoint other dealers, distributors, licensees or agents outside of the United States. As the exclusive distributor of our Vetericyn Wound Care product in the United States, VetCure has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to successfully market Vetericyn Wound Care on a continuing basis. We agreed to issue to VetCure or its designees 433,275 shares of common stock within 10 business days of the execution of the Distribution Agreement.
With respect to the issuance of our securities as described in the agreements above, we relied on the Section 4(2) exemption from securities registration under the federal securities laws for transactions not involving a public offering. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in the offering of the securities. The securities were sold to accredited investors. The securities were offered

 


 

for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or distribution, and the transfer thereof was appropriately restricted by us.
The above-descriptions of the Burlingame Agreement, Non-Affiliate Agreement and Distribution Agreement do not purport to be complete and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3, respectively, to this report and incorporated herein by reference.

Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in our Form 10-K and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OCULUS INNOVATIVE SCIENCES, INC.
Form of Series A Warrants for the Purchase
of
Shares of Common Stock, Par Value $0.0001 per Share
No.                     
Issue Date:                                         
     THIS CERTIFIES that, for consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and other value received,                      (the “Holder”) is entitled to subscribe for, and purchase from, OCULUS INNOVATIVE SCIENCES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time or from time to time six months after the date this warrant is issued (the “Initial Exercise Date”) until five years after the Issue Date (the “Exercise Period”), up to an aggregate of                      shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company. This Warrant is initially exercisable at a price of $1.87 per share, subject to adjustment as described in this Warrant. The term “Exercise Price” shall mean, depending on the context, the initial exercise price (as set forth above) or the adjusted exercise price per share. The Company may, in its sole discretion, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount or extend the Exercise Period, at any time. Such modifications to the Exercise Price or Exercise Period may be temporary or permanent.
     As used herein, the term “this Warrant” shall mean and include this Warrant and any Warrant or Warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or transfer of this Warrant in whole or in part. Each share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof shall be hereinafter referred to as a “Warrant Share.

-10-


 

     1. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, this Warrant may be exercised at any time in whole and from time to time in part, at the option of the Holder, on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or prior to the end of the Exercise Period. This Warrant shall initially be exercisable in whole or in part for that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as indicated on the first page of this Warrant, for an exercise price per share equal to the Exercise Price, by delivery to the Company at its office at 1129 North McDowell Blvd., Petaluma, California 94954, or at such other place as is designated in writing by the Company, of:
     (i) a completed Election to Purchase, in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Holder exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant;
     (ii) this Warrant; and
     (iii) subject to Section 1(c) below, payment of an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise in the form of, at the Holder’s option, (A) a certified or bank cashier’s check payable to the Company, or (B) a wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company.
     (b) As used herein:
     (i) “Fair Market Value” of a security shall mean, on any given day, the average of the closing prices of such security’s sales on all securities exchanges on which such security may at the time be listed on such day, or, if there has been no sales on any such exchange on such day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on all such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on such day such security is not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board (the “OTCBB”) as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on such day such security is not quoted on the OTCBB, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the Pink Sheet, LLC, or any similar successor organization. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted on the OTCBB or the over-the-counter market, the “Fair Market Value” shall be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, absent manifest error.
     (c) Cashless Exercise. If at any time six months after the date of the issuance of this Warrant 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 only at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the number as is computed using the following formula:

-11-


 

X = Y (A-B)
     A
where
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Warrant.
Y = the number of Warrant Shares covered by this Warrant with respect to which the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 1(c).
A = the Fair Market Value (as defined above) of one Warrant Share.
B = the Exercise Price in effect at the time the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 1(c).
     (d) Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and cause promptly to be delivered upon such exercise to, or upon the written order of, the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a Warrant Share otherwise issuable upon such exercise.
     (e) If this Warrant is exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares evidenced by this Warrant at any time prior to the end of the Exercise Period, a new Warrant evidencing the remaining Warrant Shares shall be issued to the Holder, or its nominee(s), without charge therefor.
     2. The Exercise Price for the Warrants in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment as follows:
     (a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) 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. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2(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) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidence of its

-12-


 

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 (i) the denominator shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock determined as of the record date mentioned above and (ii) the numerator shall be such Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such evidence of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock, which fair market value shall be reduced by the fair market value of consideration, if any, paid to the Company by holders of Common Stock in exchange for such evidence of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants so distributed, in each case as such Fair Market Value is 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 evidences of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock 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.
     (c) All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent.
     (d) The Company shall not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but may pay the value thereof to the Holder in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share.
     (e) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in such price.
     3. Unless registered, the Warrant Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to a stop transfer order and the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT THE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED

-13-


 

WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
     4. 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, without charge, of like date, tenor and denomination, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
     5. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would cause a breach or violation of the Company’s obligations under any applicable rules or regulations of any market on which the Company’s securities trade.
     6. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this section may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and the provisions of this section shall continue to apply. Upon such a change by a Holder of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from such 4.99% limitation to such 9.99% limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived by such Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this section to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial

-14-


 

Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
     7. (a) The Holder shall not have, solely on account of its status as a holder of a Warrant, any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in equity, or to any notice of meetings of stockholders or of any other proceedings of the Company, except as provided in this Warrant.
          (b) No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of Company, whether such liability is asserted by Company or by creditors of Company.
     8. All notices that are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficient if personally delivered, sent by facsimile, or sent by registered or certified mail or Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service. Any notices shall be deemed given upon the earlier of the date when received at, the day when delivered via facsimile or the third day after the date when sent by registered or certified mail or the day after the date when sent by Federal Express to, the address set forth below, unless such address is changed by notice to the other party hereto:

EXHIBIT A TO THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COMPANY COUNSEL THAT THIS WARRANT OR SUCH SECURITIES, AS APPLICABLE, MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
OCULUS INNOVATIVE SCIENCES, INC.
Form of Series A Warrants for the Purchase
of
Shares of Common Stock, Par Value $0.0001 per Share
No.           
Issue Date:                               
     THIS CERTIFIES that, for consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and other value received,                      (the “Holder”) is entitled to subscribe for, and purchase from, OCULUS INNOVATIVE SCIENCES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time or from time to time six months after the date this warrant is issued (the “Initial Exercise Date”) until five years after the Issue Date (the “Exercise Period”), up to an aggregate of                      shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company. This Warrant is initially exercisable at a price of $1.87 per share, subject to adjustment as described in this Warrant. The term “Exercise Price” shall mean, depending on the context, the initial exercise price (as set forth above) or the adjusted exercise price per share. The Company may, in its sole discretion, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount or extend the Exercise Period, at any time. Such modifications to the Exercise Price or Exercise Period may be temporary or permanent.
     As used herein, the term “this Warrant” shall mean and include this Warrant and any Warrant or Warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or transfer of this Warrant in whole or in part. Each share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof shall be hereinafter referred to as a “Warrant Share.

-11-


 

     1. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, this Warrant may be exercised at any time in whole and from time to time in part, at the option of the Holder, on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or prior to the end of the Exercise Period. This Warrant shall initially be exercisable in whole or in part for that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as indicated on the first page of this Warrant, for an exercise price per share equal to the Exercise Price, by delivery to the Company at its office at 1129 North McDowell Blvd., Petaluma, California 94954, or at such other place as is designated in writing by the Company, of:
     (i) a completed Election to Purchase, in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Holder exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant;
     (ii) this Warrant; and
     (iii) subject to Section 1(c) below, payment of an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise in the form of, at the Holder’s option, (A) a certified or bank cashier’s check payable to the Company, or (B) a wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company.
     (b) As used herein:
     (i) “Fair Market Value” of a security shall mean, on any given day, the average of the closing prices of such security’s sales on all securities exchanges on which such security may at the time be listed on such day, or, if there has been no sales on any such exchange on such day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on all such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on such day such security is not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board (the “OTCBB”) as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on such day such security is not quoted on the OTCBB, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the Pink Sheet, LLC, or any similar successor organization. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted on the OTCBB or the over-the-counter market, the “Fair Market Value” shall be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, absent manifest error.
     (c) Cashless Exercise. If at any time six months after the date of the issuance of this Warrant 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 only at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the number as is computed using the following formula:

-12-


 

X = Y (A-B)
      A
where
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Warrant.
Y = the number of Warrant Shares covered by this Warrant with respect to which the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 1(c).
A = the Fair Market Value (as defined above) of one Warrant Share.
B = the Exercise Price in effect at the time the cashless exercise election is made pursuant to this Section 1(c).
     (d) Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and cause promptly to be delivered upon such exercise to, or upon the written order of, the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a Warrant Share otherwise issuable upon such exercise.
     (e) If this Warrant is exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares evidenced by this Warrant at any time prior to the end of the Exercise Period, a new Warrant evidencing the remaining Warrant Shares shall be issued to the Holder, or its nominee(s), without charge therefor.
     2The Exercise Price for the Warrants in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment as follows:
     (a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) 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. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2(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) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidence of its

-13-


 

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 (i) the denominator shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock determined as of the record date mentioned above and (ii) the numerator shall be such Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such evidence of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock, which fair market value shall be reduced by the fair market value of consideration, if any, paid to the Company by holders of Common Stock in exchange for such evidence of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants so distributed, in each case as such Fair Market Value is 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 evidences of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock 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.
     (c) All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made to the nearest cent.
     (d) The Company shall not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but may pay the value thereof to the Holder in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share.
     (e) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) in such price.
     3. Unless registered, the Warrant Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to a stop transfer order and the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT THE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED

-14-


 

WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
     4. 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, without charge, of like date, tenor and denomination, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
     5. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would cause a breach or violation of the Company’s obligations under any applicable rules or regulations of any market on which the Company’s securities trade.
     6. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this section may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and the provisions of this section shall continue to apply. Upon such a change by a Holder of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from such 4.99% limitation to such 9.99% limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived by such Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this section to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial

-15-


 

Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
     7. (a) The Holder shall not have, solely on account of its status as a holder of a Warrant, any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in equity, or to any notice of meetings of stockholders or of any other proceedings of the Company, except as provided in this Warrant.
          (b) No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of Company, whether such liability is asserted by Company or by creditors of Company.
     8. All notices that are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficient if personally delivered, sent by facsimile, or sent by registered or certified mail or Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service.

     1. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, this Warrant may be exercised at any time in whole and from time to time in part, at the option of the Holder, on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or prior to the end of the Exercise Period. This Warrant shall initially be exercisable in whole or in part for that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as indicated on the first page of this Warrant, for an exercise price per share equal to the Exercise Price, by delivery to the Company at its office at 1129 North McDowell Blvd., Petaluma, California 94954, or at such other place as is designated in writing by the Company, of:
     (i) a completed Election to Purchase, in the form set forth in Exhibit A, executed by the Holder exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant;
     (ii) this Warrant; and
     (iii) payment of an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise in the form of, at the Holder’s option, (A) a certified or bank cashier’s check payable to the Company, or (B) a wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company.
     (b) Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and cause promptly to be delivered upon such exercise to, or upon the written order of, the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a Warrant Share otherwise issuable upon such exercise.
     (c) If this Warrant is exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares evidenced by this Warrant at any time prior to the end of the Exercise Period, a new Warrant evidencing the remaining Warrant Shares shall be issued to the Holder, or its nominee(s), without charge therefor.
     2. The Exercise Price for the Warrants in effect from time to time shall be subject to adjustment as follows:
     (a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iii) 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. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or

-22-

     (b) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidence 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 (i) the denominator shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock determined as of the record date mentioned above and (ii) the numerator shall be such Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such evidence of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock, which fair market value shall be reduced by the fair market value of consideration, if any, paid to the Company by holders of Common Stock in exchange for such evidence of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants so distributed, in each case as such Fair Market Value is 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 evidences of indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock 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.

ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT THE SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

     5. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would cause a breach or violation of the Company’s obligations under any applicable rules or regulations of any market on which the Company’s securities trade.
     6. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this section may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company to change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and the provisions of this section shall continue to apply. Upon such a

-24-


 

change by a Holder of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from such 4.99% limitation to such 9.99% limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further waived by such Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this section to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.
     7. (a) The Holder shall not have, solely on account of its status as a holder of a Warrant, any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or in equity, or to any notice of meetings of stockholders or of any other proceedings of the Company, except as provided in this Warrant.
          (b) No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of Company, whether such liability is asserted by Company or by creditors of Company.
     8. All notices that are required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficient if personally delivered, sent by facsimile, or sent by registered or certified mail or Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight delivery service.

     NOW THEREFORE in consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings of the parties hereto the parties agree as follows:
     1. Definitions.

From time to time, the Company may introduce new products and packaging, including, but not limited to, otic cleanser, gels, shampoos, etc., based on the Microcyn Technology platform and new packaging configurations. Distributor will be granted exclusive distribution rights for these new products in the Market during the Term and within the Territory. The parties intend to work in good faith to finalize pricing, packaging and labeling regarding these new products in the future.
          1.9 “Solution Specifications” means the specifications for the Solutions as set forth in Exhibit B.
          1.10 “Territory” shall mean the United States of America.
     2. Purchases and Solutions.
          2.1 General. This Agreement establishes the terms and conditions on which Company will sell to Distributor the Solutions. This Agreement shall not be modified, supplemented or interpreted by any trade usage or prior course of dealing not made a part of this Agreement by its express terms.
          2.2 Appointment. Subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Company hereby appoints Distributor for the term of this Agreement as the exclusive distributor of the Solutions only within the Market and only within the Territory. Distributor may distribute Solutions only to persons and entities located and taking delivery within the Territory . Furthermore, Solution distributed by Distributor for further distribution may be distributed only through subdistributors who are bound in writing for Company’s benefit to all the restrictions on Distributor contained in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting in any manner Company’s marketing or distribution activities or its appointment of other dealers, distributors, licensees or agents outside the Market and/or outside the Territory.
          2.3 Shipment Terms and Costs. Solution is delivered DDP, Delivered Duty Paid, from the Company’s manufacturing plant in Zapopan, Mexico to Distributor’s warehouse in Rialto, California.

 


 

          2.4 Purchase Order and Forecast. On a quarterly basis, Distributor shall provide a non-binding, rolling forecast of purchases of Solutions for the next six (6) months after the period covered by the Purchase Order.
          2.5 Purchase Orders. All Purchase Orders shall contain such pricing, requested shipment schedule, delivery address, requested carrier and quantity terms as set forth in Exhibit A.
     When acknowledgement of receipt and acceptance of the Purchase Order is made by Company (either by written notice or by shipment of the Solutions covered by the Purchase Order), the Purchase Order shall be deemed a commitment to purchase and sell the Solutions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
          2.6 Pricing. The Solution prices are set forth in Exhibit A and shall be payable in US Dollars.
          2.7 Payment Terms. Payment terms are thirty (30) days net for OBP (defined below). All payments related to the Revenue Sharing (also defined below) portion are due thirty (30) days after month end for which the Revenue Sharing calculation applies.
          2.8 Minimum Purchase. Minimum ordering quantities are set forth in Exhibit A. No orders shall be accepted, unless such orders are at least equal to or greater than the minimum quantities set forth in Exhibit A.
     3. Delivery and Acceptance.
          3.1 Delivery of Solution. Delivery of Solution shall be DDP, Delivered Duty Paid, from the Company’s manufacturing plant in Zapopan, Mexico to Distributor’s warehouse in Rialto, California. Shipment dates are approximate and are subject to change.
          3.2 Packaging. Company shall package the Solutions for shipment to Distributor in the manner customarily used by Company, unless Distributor requires different packaging specifications, in which case any such different packaging shall be at Distributor’s expense. Distributor will provide such reasonable specifications to Company in writing within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date. After execution of this Agreement, Distributor will, at its own expense, begin studying all necessary steps to conduct final finished bottlling and labeling (“Packaging”) of Vetericyn in Distributor’s facility. The Company will, at its own expense, begin studying all necessary steps to manufacture the Solution in Petaluma, California and ship to Distributor in bulk. Distributor intends to target certain Packaging and Solution pricing not to exceed $2.00 per bottle. If the costs of Packaging and Solution pricing are greater than $2.00 per bottle, which includes transportation and duties, if any, then Distributor will absorb any additional costs over $2.00 per bottle. If the costs of Packaging and Solution are less than $2.00 per bottle, then any savings will be shared equally between the parties. Upon achieving all necessary regulatory approvals necessary for Packaging medical devices, Distributor will have the right to Package the Solution for the Market in the Territory. The Company will conduct periodic audits, with reasonable prior notice, of Distributor’s Packaging facility in an effort to ensure Distributor complies with appropriate regulatory requirements for final finished Packaging. The parties agree to work in good faith to create a similar Revenue Sharing mechanism, as described in Exhibit A, upon transfer of Packaging to Distributor.

 


 

          3.3 Future Manufacturing Rights. Upon achieving a certificate of compliance under Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) to Package medical devices under US Food and Drug Administration rules, the parties agree to work in good faith to study Distributor’s manufacturing capabilities under the following scenario. Distributor would provide a secure manufacturing area within Distributor’s facility solely to house the Company’s proprietary manufacturing line. Distributor would further reimburse all salary and related employment costs for a Company employee, if deemed necessary by the parties, to maintain and operate the Company’s manufacturing line within Distributor’s facility. Any potential costs savings that result from the transfer of manufacturing to Distributor’s facility would be split evenly between the Company and Distributor. For purposes of clarity, any transfer of manufacturing rights will only occur upon written mutual agreement, or pursuant to Section 10.3.
          3.4 Risk of Loss or Damage. Title and risk of loss will be transferred to Distributor upon delivery of Solutions by Company. Distributor will also bear the risk of loss with respect to any Solutions rejected by Distributor until received by Company in Petaluma, California, or another location by mutual agreement.
          3.5 Delivery Performance. Company may make partial deliveries of the Solutions under this Agreement. Partial deliveries will be separately invoiced by Company and paid for by Distributor without regard to subsequent deliveries.
          3.6 Cancellation; Rescheduling. Distributor may not cancel or reschedule any shipment under a Purchase Order once the Purchase Order is accepted by Company.
          3.7 Solution Acceptance. All Solutions will be subject to final inspection and acceptance by Distributor within seven (7) working days after receipt. Distributor may only reject Solutions if the Solutions shipped by Company did not materially conform to the Solution Specifications at the time of shipment by Company. In any event, use of the Solutions by Distributor or its customers, or the failure by Distributor to return the Solutions within fourteen (14) working days following delivery of such Solutions shall constitute acceptance by the Distributor. Any Solutions properly rejected will be returned to Company in accordance with the return procedures set forth in Article VI with respect to warranty claims.
          3.8 Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for nonperformance or delay in performance (other than of obligations regarding payment of money or confidentiality) caused by any event reasonably beyond the control of such party including, but not limited to wars, hostilities, revolutions, riots, civil commotion, national emergency, strikes, lockouts, epidemics, fire, flood, earthquake, force of nature, explosion, embargo, or any other Act of God, or any law, proclamation, regulation, ordinance, or other act or order of any court, government or governmental agency.

Distributor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to successfully market the Solutions in the Market in the Territory on a continuing basis and to comply with good business practices and all laws and regulations relevant to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof.

The Company will issue such shares of common stock within 10 business days of the execution of this agreement to such individuals or entities as directed by the Distributor or as otherwise decided by the parties in writing. The shares of common stock will be issued pursuant to a private placement and will bear a restrictive legend.
