STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase 395,726 Shares of Common Stock of
CEL-SCI CORPORATION
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, Rubicon Group Ltd. (the
"Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on
exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after
September 16, 2003 (the "Initial Exercise Date") and on or prior to the close of
business on September 16, 2008 (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter, to
subscribe for and purchase from CEL-SCI Corporation, a corporation incorporated
in the State of Colorado (the "Company"), up to 395,726 shares (the "Warrant
Shares") of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the "Common
Stock"). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the "Exercise Price")
under this Warrant shall be $0.83, subject to adjustment herein. The Exercise
Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable
shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. In the event of any conflict
between the terms of this Warrant and the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated
as of September 16, 2003 pursuant to which this Warrant has been issued (the
"Purchase Agreement"), the Purchase Agreement shall control. Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such
terms in the Purchase Agreement.
1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by the
Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant
together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed.
2. Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares
which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant,
be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from
all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes
in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
3. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) Except as provided in Section 4 herein, exercise of the purchase rights
represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or times on or after
the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by the
surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto
duly executed, at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency
of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered
Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company)
and upon payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by
wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank or by means
of a cashless exercise, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
certificate for the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for
shares purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Holder at an address
in the United States specified in writing by the Holder within three (3)
Trading Days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised
as aforesaid; provided, however, if a registration registering the sale of
the Warrant Shares is then effective or the shares may be issue pursuant to
Rule 144 without a legend (and the customary documentation has been
provided for such sale), the Warrant Shares shall be delivered directly to
the Holder's or its designee's DTC account via the DWAC system. This
Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates 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, as of the date the
Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price
and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to
Section 5 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. If the
Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a) by the third
Trading Day after the date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right
to rescind such exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the
Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or
certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise by the
third Trading Day after the date of exercise, and if after such third
Trading Day the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open
market transaction or otherwise) 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 (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount 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 (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required
to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (B)
the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation
was executed, and (2) 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 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 (1) 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, together with applicable confirmations and
other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. 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 certificates representing shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(b) If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at
the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing
Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of
Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this
Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with
this Warrant.
(c) If no registration statement is effective permitting the resale of the
Warrant Shares at any time commencing one year after the issuance date
hereof, this Warrant shall also be exercisable by means of a "cashless
exercise" in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate
for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing
[(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:
(A) = the average of the high and low trading prices per share
of Common Stock on the Trading Day preceding the date of such
election on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or if the Common Stock is
not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, then the Principal
Market in terms of volume;
(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant; and
(X) = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and
the Notice of Exercise.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the
Holder be permitted to exercise this Warrant for Warrant Shares to the
extent that (i) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Holder
(other than Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) plus
(ii) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
would be equal to or exceed 4.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock
then issued and outstanding, including shares issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant held by such Holder after application of this Section 3(d). As
used herein, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the limitation
contained in this Section 3(d) applies, the determination of whether this
Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the
Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in
the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of
Exercise shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether this
Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such
Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case
subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have
no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict the right of a Holder
to exercise this Warrant into Warrant Shares at such time as such exercise
will not violate the provisions of this Section 3(d). The provisions of
this Section 3(d) may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the
Holder, with not less than 61 days' prior notice to the Company, and the
provisions of this Section 3(d) shall continue to apply until such 61st day
(or such later date as may be specified in such notice of waiver). No
exercise of this Warrant in violation of this Section 3(d) but otherwise in
accordance with this Warrant shall affect the status of the Warrant Shares
as validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.
4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled
to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in
respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for 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 such certificate, all of
which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates
shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be
directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
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.
6. Closing of Books. Unless required by law, the Company will not close its
stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of
this Warrant.
7. Transfer, Division and Combination.
(a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, transfer of this
Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered
on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together
with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form
attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and
funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such
transfer. In the event that the Holder wishes to transfer a portion of this
Warrant, the Holder shall transfer at least 100,000 shares underlying this
Warrant to any such transferee. Upon such surrender and, if required, such
payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in
the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or
denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue
to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so
assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if
properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of
Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
(b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a
written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants
are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to
compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in
such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided
or combined in accordance with such notice.
(c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than
transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7.
(d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the
registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.
8. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle
the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price or by means of a cashless exercise, the Warrant
Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the
record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date
of such surrender or payment.
9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. 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 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 of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
10. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the
taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein
shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or
such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or
legal holiday.
11. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. (a) Stock
Splits, etc. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to
time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i)
pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of
Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii)
combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares
of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a
reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be
adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of
Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which it would have owned or
have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance
thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or
other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder
shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other
securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share
or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number
of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company resulting from such
adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record
date, if any, for such event.
12. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition
of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its
capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the
Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or
distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or
business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon
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 Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 12. For purposes of
this Section 12, "common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall
include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to
dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which
is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of
indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or
exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a
specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of
this Section 12 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
13. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time during
the term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount
and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the
Company.
14. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number
or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall
promptly mail by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the
Holder notice of such adjustment or adjustments setting forth the number of
Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other
securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement
of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by
which such adjustment was made. Such notice, in the absence of manifest error,
shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.
15. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or
other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any
evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any
other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the
Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale,
transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property,
assets or business of the Company to, another corporation or,
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;
then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at
least 20 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to
vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii)
in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 20
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such
notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any
such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property
deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Each
such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the
last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in
accordance with Section 17(d).
16. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full
authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such
Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any
applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market
upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
The Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation,
amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the
amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in
par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable
Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents
from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary
to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number
of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise
Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof,
or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or
bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
17. Miscellaneous.
(a) Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of
New York, without regard to its conflict of law, principles or rules.
(b) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon
the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions
upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
(c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to
exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a
waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or
remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination
Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any
provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the
Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient
to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by
Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise
enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be
given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in
accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative
action by Holder to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of
the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of
Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of
the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by
creditors of the Company.
(f) Remedies. Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that
monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred
by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby
agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a
remedy at law would be adequate.
(g) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant
and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and
permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to
be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant and
shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
(h) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions
hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
(i) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the
remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
(j) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of
reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this
Warrant.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be executed by
its officer thereunto duly authorized.

The undersigned, registered Holder of the Warrant delivered herewith,
hereby irrevocably exercises such Warrant for, and purchases thereunder, shares
of the Common Stock of Cel-SCI Corporation, a Colorado corporation, as provided

Common Stock be issued in the name of _______________________ and delivered to
