In consideration of good and valuable consideration as of February 22, 2013, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by PROVECTUS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), or registered assigns (the “Holder”) is hereby granted the right to purchase at any time until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 22, 2018, ( ) fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), at an initial exercise price per share (the “Exercise Price”) of $1.00 per share, subject to further adjustment as set forth herein.

2.Exercise of Warrants.
2.1Method of Exercise.
(a) | This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to time. Such exercise shall be effectuated by submitting to the Company (either by delivery to the Company or by facsimile transmission as provided in Section 8 hereof) a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise (substantially in the form attached to this Warrant) as provided in this paragraph. The date such Notice of Exercise is faxed to the Company shall be the “Exercise Date,” provided that the Holder of this Warrant tenders this Warrant Certificate to the Company within five (5) business days thereafter. The Notice of Exercise shall be executed by the Holder of this Warrant and shall indicate the number of shares then being purchased pursuant to such exercise. Upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate, together with appropriate payment of the Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased, Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes. Warrant Shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the |
1
Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is three (3) Trading Days after the the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Exercise Price may be paid in a “cashless” or “cash” exercise or a combination thereof pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and/or Section 2.1(c) below. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. |
(b) | If the Notice of Exercise form elects a “cashless” exercise, the Holder shall thereby be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x) the excess of the Current Market Value (as defined below) over the total cash exercise price of the portion of the Warrant then being exercised, divided by (y) the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior to the Exercise Date. For the purposes of this Warrant, the terms (Q) “Current Market Value” shall be an amount equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior to the Exercise Date, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such Notice of Exercise Form, and (R) “Market Price of the Common Stock” shall be the closing price of the Common Stock as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board, or if listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on an automated quotation service, such national securities exchange or automated quotation service, for the relevant date. If the Common Stock is not then listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the date of determination, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder. If the Common Stock is not then listed on a national securities exchange, the OTC Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the Board of Directors of the Company shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Holder prior to the exercise hereunder as to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holder are unable to agree upon the fair market value, 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 equally by the Company and the Holder. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a payment date is fixed. |
2
(c) | If the Notice of Exercise form elects a “cash” exercise, the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock for the shares then being exercised shall be payable in cash or by certified or official bank check. |
(d) | The Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of the shares issuable to it in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.1 on the Exercise Date. |
(e) | If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.1(a) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise. |
(f) | In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. |
(g) | Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names |
3
as may be directed by the Holder;provided,however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise. |
2.2Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant or the Securities Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant, and the Company shall not have the obligation to issue shares upon such exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant to the extent that, after such exercise the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Ownership Limitation Percentage”) of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants for which determination is being made under this Section 2.2, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining unexercised shares under this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Warrant, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Ownership Limitation Percentage to any percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and any such increase or decrease will apply only to the requesting. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, further agrees that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Warrants, such assignment shall be made subject to the transferee’s or assignee’s specific agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.2 as if such transferee or assignee were the original Holder hereof.
3.Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at all times during the term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be required for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”). The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.
4.Mutilation or Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a duplicate Warrant and any such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void.
5.Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
4
6.Protection Against Dilution and Other Adjustments.
6.1Adjustment Mechanism. If an adjustment of the Exercise Price is required pursuant to Sections 6.2, 6.3, or 6.4 the Holder shall be entitled to purchase such number of additional shares of Common Stock as will cause (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant, multiplied by (ii) the adjusted Exercise Price per share, to equal (iii) the dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase before adjustment multiplied by the total Exercise Price immediately before adjustment.
6.2Dividends; Distributions. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
6.3.Reorganization; Reclassification; Merger; Consolidation. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons
5
whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.2 on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2.2 on the exercise of this Warrant). 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 share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.3 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.
6.4Distributions to Holders of Common Stock. In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such
6
distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus or dividends or distributions referred to in Section 6.2, or subscription rights or warrants), the Exercise Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Current Market Value per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Current Market Value per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date.
6.5Adjustment for Dilutive Issues.
(a) | Special Definitions. For purposes of Section 6.5, the following definitions shall apply: |
(i) | “Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities. |
(ii) | “8% Convertible Preferred Stock” shall mean shares of 8% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, convertible into Common Stock, with such terms as described in the Certificate of Designation filed by the Company on March 5, 2010, as may be amended from time to time (the “Certificate of Designation”). |
(iii) | “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, but excluding Options. |
(iv) | “Original Issue Date” shall mean the date that the first share of 8% Convertible Preferred Stock is issued. |
(v) | “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued (or, pursuant to Section 6.5(b), deemed to be issued) by the Company after the Original Issue Date, other than (1) the following shares of Common Stock and 8% Convertible Preferred Stock and (2) shares of Common Stock deemed issued pursuant to the following Options and Convertible Securities (clauses (1) and (2), collectively, “Exempted Securities”): |

(b) | Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock. |
(i) | If the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options (excluding Options which are themselves Exempted Securities) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date. |
(ii) | If the terms of any Option, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 6.5(c) are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Exercise Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Exercise Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such |
8
Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this Section 6.5(b)(ii) shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option, or (ii) the Exercise Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date. |
(iii) | If the terms of any Option (excluding Options which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 6.5(c) (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 6.5(d)) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Exercise Price then in effect, or because such Option was issued before the Original Issue Date), are revised after the Original Issue Date as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option o (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, then such Option, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Section 6.5(b)(i)) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective. |
(iv) | If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any Option, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, is calculable at the time such Option is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Exercise Price provided for in this Section 6.5(b) shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in clauses (2) and (3) of this Section 6.5(b)). If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of any Option, or the consideration payable to the Company upon such exercise, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Exercise Price that would result under the terms of this Section 6.5(b) at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Exercise Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made. |
(c) | Adjustment of Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.In the event the Company shall at any time after the Original Issue Date and prior to |
9
the date that is five years after the Original Issue Date issue Options that results in a deemed issuance pursuant to Section 6.5(b),without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to the consideration per share received by the Company for such deemed issue; provided that if such deemed issuance was without consideration, then the Company shall be deemed to have received an aggregate of $.001 of consideration for all such Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the Exercise Price, shall be equal to the aggregate Exercise Price prior to such adjustment. |
(d) | Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this Section 6.5(d), the consideration received by the Company for the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows: |
(i) | Cash and Property. Such consideration shall: |
(A) | insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Company, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest; |
(B) | insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; and |
(C) | in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (A) and (B) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. |
(ii) | Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 6.5(b), relating to Options, shall be determined by dividing: |
(A) | the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Company upon the exercise of such Options, by |
(B) | the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options. |
(e) | Multiple Closing Dates. In the event the Company shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Section 6.5(c), then, upon the final such issuance, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period). |
10
6.6Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 6.2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Ownership Limitation Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Ownership Limitation Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Ownership Limitation Percentage).
