Purchase Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price
(calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying such Purchase
Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be (i) the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received
or deemed to have been received by the Company for the total number of
Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at such Purchase
Price, and the denominator of which shall be (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus (ii) the number

Common Stock are issued or deemed to be issued shall not be reduced pursuant

Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows;
(a) CASH AND PROPERTY. Such consideration shall:
(i) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the
aggregate amounts of cash received by the company excluding amounts paid or
payable for accrued interest or accrued dividends;
(ii) 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; and
(iii) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are
issued together with ocher 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 (i) and (ii)
above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
(b) 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 3.3(a), relating to Options and
Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing (i) the total amount,
if any, received or receivable by the company as consideration for the issue
of such Options or Convertible Securities, 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

such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities or
in the case of options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such
Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities, by (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock

be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or
securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer,
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least
ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event

Xxxxxx, XX 00000
Dated:
--------------------------
The undersigned, pursuant to the provisions set forth in the attached
Warrant (No. W-1), hereby irrevocably elects to purchase shares of the Common
Stock, $.001 par value per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of Exelixis
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "COMPANY") covered by such Warrant and herewith makes
payment of $__________, representing the full purchase price for such shares at
the price per share provided for in such Warrant.
The undersigned is aware that the Common Stock has not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") or any state
securities laws. The undersigned understands that reliance by the Company on
exemptions under the Securities Act is predicated in part upon the truth and
accuracy of the statements of the undersigned in this Purchase Form.
The undersigned represents and warrants that (1) it has been furnished with
all information which it deems necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of the
purchase of the Common stock; (2) it has had the opportunity to ask questions
concerning the Common Stock and the Company and all questions posed have been
answered to its satisfaction; (3) it has been given the opportunity to obtain
any additional information it deems necessary to verify the accuracy of any
information obtained concerning the Common Stock and the Company; and (4) it has
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is able
to evaluate the merits and risks of purchasing the Common Stock and to make an
informed investment decision relating thereto.
The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that it is purchasing the
Common Stock for its own account for investment and not with a view to the sale
or distribution of all or any part of the Common Stock.
The undersigned understands that because the Common Stock has not been
registered under the Securities Act, it must continue to bear the economic risk
of the investment for an indefinite period of time and the Common Stock cannot
be sold unless it is subsequently registered under applicable federal and state
securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
The undersigned agrees that it will in no event sell or distribute or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Common Stock unless (1) there is an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Common Stock or (2)
the Company receives an opinion satisfactory to the company of the undersigned's
legal counsel stating that such transaction is exempt from registration. The
1.
undersigned consents to the placing of a legend on its certificate for the
Common Stock stating that the Common Stock has not been registered and
setting forth the restriction on transfer contemplated hereby and to the
placing of a stop transfer order on the books of the Company and with any
transfer agents against the Common Stock until the Common Stock may be
legally resold or distributed without restriction.
The undersigned understands the restrictions on the right to transfer or
otherwise dispose of the Common Stock set forth in the Warrant, which the
undersigned has carefully reviewed. The undersigned consents to the placing
of a legend on its certificate for the Common Stock referring to such
restrictions and the placing of stop transfer orders until the Common Stock
may be transferred in accordance with the terms of such restrictions.
The undersigned understands that at the present time Rule 144 of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") is not available for
the resale or distribution of the Common Stock. The undersigned understands
that the Company has no obligation to the undersigned to register the common
Stock with the Commission and has not represented that it will register the
Common Stock.
The undersigned has considered the federal and state income tax
implications of the exercise of the warrant and the purchase and subsequent
