RIGEL PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

1.             Issuance.  For value received, this Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Warrant”) is issued to KWACKER LIMITED, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of England (“Kwacker”), by RIGEL PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter, with its successors, called the “Company”), in partial consideration for that certain Build-to-Suit Lease, dated as of May 16, 2001, between the Company and Slough BTC, LLC, as landlord, and in partial consideration for that certain Amendment No. One to Build-to-Suit Lease, dated as of October 21, 2002, between the Company and Slough BTC, LLC, as landlord (“Amendment No. One”).  This Warrant is being executed and delivered concurrently with the execution and delivery of Amendment No. One and it amends, re-evidences and restates that certain Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated as of May 16, 2001, issued by the Company to Kwacker.

2.             Purchase Price; Number of Shares.  The registered holder of this Warrant (the “Holder”), commencing on the date hereof, is entitled upon surrender of this Warrant with the subscription form annexed hereto duly executed, at the principal office of the Company, to purchase from the Company one hundred fifty thousand (150,000) fully paid and nonassessable shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), at a price per share of $8.9125 (the “Purchase Price”).  Until such time as this Warrant is exercised in full or expires, the Purchase Price and the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.  The person or persons under whose name or names any certificate representing shares of Common Stock is issued hereunder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares represented thereby as at the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised with respect to such shares, whether or not the transfer books of the Company shall be closed.

3.             Payment of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price may be paid (i) in cash or by check; (ii) by the surrender by the Holder to the Company of any promissory notes or other

 

1



 

obligations issued by the Company, with all such notes and obligations so surrendered being credited against the Purchase Price in an amount equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of surrender; or (iii) by any combination of the foregoing.

4.             Net Issue Election.  The Holder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares of Common Stock equal to the value of this Warrant or any portion hereof by the surrender of this Warrant or such portion to the Company, with the net issue election notice annexed hereto duly executed, at the principal office of the Company.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula:

X =

Y(A-B)

 

A

 

 

where:                                                             X =                             the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Section 4.

                                                                                                Y =                              the number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant in respect of which the net issue election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

                                                                                                A =                            the Fair Market Value (defined below) of one share of Common Stock, as determined at the time the net issue election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

                                                                                                B =                              the Purchase Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the net issue election is made pursuant to this Section 4.

“Fair Market Value” of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean the average of the closing or last reported sale prices of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market over the 30-day period ending five business days prior to the Determination Date; provided, however, that if (i) the Common Stock is neither traded on the Nasdaq National Market nor on a national securities exchange, then Fair Market Value shall be the average of the closing or last reported sale prices of the Common Stock over the 30-day period ending five business days prior to the Determination Date reflected in the over-the-counter market, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or any organization performing a similar function, or if closing prices are not then routinely reported for the over-the-counter market, the average of the last bid and asked prices of the Common Stock over the 30-day period ending five business days prior to the Determination Date and (ii) if there is no public market for the Common Stock, then Fair Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

5.             Partial Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised in part, and the Holder shall be entitled to receive a new warrant, which shall be dated as of the date of this Warrant, covering the number of shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been exercised.

 

2



 

6.             Fractional Shares.  In no event shall any fractional share of Common Stock be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant.  If, upon exercise of this Warrant as an entirety, the Holder would, except as provided in this Section 6, be entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock, then the Company shall pay in lieu thereof, the Fair Market Value of such fractional share in cash.

7.             Expiration Date.  This Warrant or any Successor Warrant (as defined in Section 10 below) shall remain exercisable until the close of business on May 16, 2006, when it shall expire and thereafter be void.

8.             Reserved Shares; Valid Issuance.  The Company covenants that it will at all times from and after the date hereof reserve and keep available such number of its authorized shares of Common Stock, free from all preemptive or similar rights therein, as will be sufficient to permit the exercise of this Warrant in full into shares of Common Stock upon such exercise.  The Company further covenants that such shares as may be issued pursuant to such exercise will, upon issuance, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

9.             Stock Splits and Dividends.  If after the date hereof the Company shall subdivide the Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine the Common Stock, or issue additional shares of Common Stock in payment of a stock dividend on the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination, and the Purchase Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately increased in the case of a combination.

10.          Mergers and Reclassifications.

                (a)           If after the date hereof the Company shall enter into any Reorganization (as hereinafter defined), then, as a condition of such Reorganization, lawful provisions shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder (a “Successor Warrant”), so that the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase, at a total price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such Reorganization by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased by the Holder immediately prior to such Reorganization, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation, provisions for the adjustment of the Purchase Price and the number of shares issuable hereunder and the provisions relating to the net issue election) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares of stock or other securities and property thereafter deliverable upon exercise hereof.

                (b)           If, after the date hereof the Company shall enter into any Acquisition Transaction (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to which the Consideration Per Share (as hereinafter defined) is less than the Purchase Price  (prior to any adjustment under Section 10(a)

 

3



 

with respect to such Acquisition Transaction), then in addition to any adjustment of the Purchase Price under Section 10(a) with respect to such Acquisition Transaction, the Purchase Price shall be reduced to a price equal to the product of (a) the Purchase Price times (b) the difference of (i) one minus (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is equal to the product of (A) number of Shares times (B) the Purchase Price and the denominator of which is equal to the sum of (Y) the product of (1) the number of Shares times (2) the Purchase Price plus (Z) the aggregate consideration to be received by the Company’s stockholders in the Acquisition Transaction.

(c)           For the purposes of this Section 10:

                (i)            the term “Acquisition Transaction” shall include without limitation any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another corporation or other business organization (other than a merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock);

                (ii)           the term “Reorganization” shall include without limitation any reclassification, capital reorganization or change of the Common Stock (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 9 hereof), an Acquisition Transaction, or any sale or conveyance to another corporation or other business organization of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; and

                (iii)          the term “Consideration Per Share” shall equal the closing or last reported sale price of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on the first business day immediately following the public announcement of the Reorganization (such business day being hereinafter referred to as the “Announcement Date”); provided, however, that if (i) the Common Stock is neither traded on the Nasdaq National Market nor on a national securities exchange, then Consideration Per Share shall be the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on the Announcement Date reflected in the over-the-counter market, as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or any organization performing a similar function, or if closing prices are not then routinely reported for the over-the-counter market, the average of the last bid and asked price of the Common Stock on the Announcement Date and (ii) if there is no public market for the Common Stock, then Fair Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

11.          Certificate of Adjustment.  Whenever the Purchase Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a certificate of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

12.          Notices of Record Date, Etc.  In the event of:

(a)           any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase, sell or otherwise acquire or

 

4



 

dispose of any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right;

(b)           any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, capital reorganization of the Company, consolidation or merger involving the Company, or sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of its assets; or

(c)           any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then in each such event the Company will provide or cause to be provided to the Holder a written notice thereof.  Such notice shall be provided at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the date specified in such notice on which any such action is to be taken.

13.          Representations, Warranties and Covenants.  This Warrant is issued and delivered by the Company and accepted by each Holder on the basis of the following representations, warranties and covenants made by the Company:

18.          Rights of Holder.  Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant.  Nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder hereof the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of the Company on any matters or with respect to any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company.  No dividends or interest shall be payable or accrued in respect of this Warrant or the interest represented hereby or the Shares purchasable hereunder until, and only to the extent that, this Warrant shall have been exercised in accordance with its terms.

19.  “Market Stand Off” Agreement. Holder hereby agrees not sell, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by Holder for a period specified by a representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed ninety (90) days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act; provided
