COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
Dated: October 18, 2004
DERMISONICS, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of
the State of Nevada (the "Company"), hereby certifies that, for value received,
BX INC. or its registered assigns (the "Holder"), is entitled, subject to the
terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company up to a total of 475,000
shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of the
Company (each such share, a "Warrant Share" and all such shares, the "Warrant
Shares") at an exercise price equal to $2.00 per Warrant Share (hereinafter this
common stock purchase warrant is referred to as the "Warrant" or the
"Warrants"). The Warrants shall be exercisable from the date hereof and through
and including September 30, 2006 (the "Expiration Date"). This Warrant is
subject to the following additional terms and conditions:
1. Registration of Warrant. The Company shall register this Warrant,
-------------------------
upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the "Warrant
Register"), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The
Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute
owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the
Holder, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by
notice to the contrary.
1. Registration of Transfers and Exchanges.
-------------------------------------------
(a) The Company shall register the transfer of any portion of this
Warrant in the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant, with the Form
of Assignment attached hereto duly completed and signed, to the Company at its
address for notice
Page 1
specified in Section 10 along with an opinion of counsel to the Holder
reasonably acceptable to the Company that such transfer may be made without
compliance with Federal and state securities laws. Upon any such registration
or transfer, a new warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form
of this Warrant (any such new warrant, a "New Warrant"), evidencing the portion
of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New
Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if
any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New
Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance of such
transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.
(b) This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the
Holder to the office of the Company at its address for notice specified in
Section 10 for one or more New Warrants, evidencing in the aggregate the right
to purchase the number of Warrant Shares which may then be purchased hereunder.
Any such New Warrant will be dated the date of such exchange.
2. Duration, Exercise and Redemption of Warrants.
--------------------------------------------------
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder on
any business day before 5:00 P.M., New York City time, at any time and from time
to time on or after the date hereof, in accordance with the Vesting Schedule, to
and including the Expiration Date. At 5:00 P.M., New York City time on the
Expiration Date, the portion of this Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall
be and become void and of no value. This Warrant shall be redeemable by the
Company as provided in Section 4, below.
(b) Subject to Sections 2(b) and 6, upon surrender of this
Warrant, with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto duly completed
and signed, to the Company at its address for notice set forth in Section 10 and
upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares
that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, in lawful money of the United
States of America, in cash or by certified or official bank check or checks, all
as specified by the Holder in the Form of Election to Purchase, the Company
shall promptly (but in no event later than three business days after the Date of
Exercise (as defined herein)) issue or cause to be issued and cause to be
delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such name or names
as the Holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon
such exercise. Any person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares
shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of
the Date of Exercise of this Warrant. A "Date of Exercise" means the date on
which the Company shall have received (i) this Warrant (or any New Warrant, as
applicable), with the Form of Election to Purchase attached hereto (or attached
to such New Warrant) appropriately completed and duly signed, and (ii) payment
of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the
holder hereof to be purchased.
Page 2
(c) This Warrant shall be exercisable, either in its entirety or,
from time to time, for a portion of the number of Warrant Shares. If less than
all of the Warrant Shares which may be purchased under this Warrant are
exercised at any time, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, at its
expense, a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of
Warrant Shares for which no exercise has been evidenced by this Warrant.
3. Redemption of Warrant. The Warrants may be redeemed by the Company
----------------------
at any time on 30 day's written notice to the Holder at the last address
therefor as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register at a price of $0.01 per
Warrant commencing immediately after the Registration Date provided that the
average closing bid price per share of Common Stock for the 30 trading days
ending five days prior to the date of the redemption notice of the Warrants is
at least $4.00 per share.
4. Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary stamp taxes
-----------------
attributable to the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this
Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any
tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration
of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of
the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to issue or cause to be issued
or deliver or cause to be delivered the certificates for Warrant Shares unless
or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid
to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the
satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Holder shall be
responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or
transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.
5. Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen
-----------------------
or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution
for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and indemnity, if
reasonably satisfactory to it. Applicants for a New Warrant under such
circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and
procedures and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.
6. Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will
-------------------------------
at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized
but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue
Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of
Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this
entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent
purchase rights of persons other than the Holders (taking into account the
adjustments and restrictions of Section 8). The Company covenants that all
Warrant Shares that shall be so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance
and the
Page 3
payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be
duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
7. Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant
--------------------
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from
time to time as set forth in this Section 8. Upon each such adjustment of the
Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Holder shall thereafter prior to
the Expiration Date be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment, the number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from
such adjustment.
(a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding,
(i) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions
on shares of its Common Stock (as defined below) or on any other class of
capital stock (and not the Common Stock) payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii)
subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or
(iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares, 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 before such event and of which the denominator shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any)
outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section
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 or combination, and shall apply to successive subdivisions and
combinations.
(b) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock, any
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person, the sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in which the
consideration therefor is equity or equity equivalent securities or any
compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into
other securities or property, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to
exercise this Warrant only into the shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of Common Stock
following such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
exchange, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such event to receive such
amount of securities or property of the Company's business combination partner
equal to the amount of Warrant Shares such Holder would have been entitled to
had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange. The
terms of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange shall
include such terms so as to continue to give to the Holder the right to receive
the securities or property set forth in this Section 8(b) upon any exercise
following any such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange.
Page 4
(c) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to holders
of this Warrant) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase any security (excluding those referred to in
Sections 8(a), (b) and (d)), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be
determined 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 the denominator shall be the Exercise Price
determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator
shall be such Exercise Price on such record date less the then fair market value
at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so
distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by
a nationally recognized or major regional investment banking firm or firm of
independent certified public accountants of recognized standing (which, in all
events, may be the firm that regularly examines the financial statements of the
Company) (an "Appraiser") mutually selected in good faith by the holders of a
majority in interest of the Warrants then outstanding and the Company. Any
determination made by the Appraiser shall be final.
(d) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued rights or warrants to acquire or otherwise
sell or distribute shares of Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock for a
consideration per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, then,
forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the
price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (i) an amount
equal to the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the Exercise Price, and
(B) the consideration, if any, received or receivable by the Company upon such
issue or sale by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately after such issue or sale.
(e) For the purposes of this Section 8, the following clauses
shall also be applicable:
(i) Record Date. In case the Company shall take a record of the
-----------
holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling the holders of Common
Stock (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock or
in securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock, or (B) to
subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or securities convertible or exchangeable
into shares of Common Stock, then such record date shall be deemed to be the
date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been
issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other
distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or
purchase, as the case may be.
(ii) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock
----------------
outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for
the account
Page 5
of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an
issue or sale of Common Stock.
(f) All calculations under this Section 8 shall be made to
the Nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.
(g) If:
(i) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on its Common Stock; or
(ii) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash
dividend on or a redemption of its Common Stock; or
(iii) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of
the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any
rights; or
(iv) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be
required in connection with any reclassification of the
Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger to
which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any
compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is
converted into other securities, cash or property; or
(v) the Company shall authorize the voluntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company;
then the Company shall cause to be mailed to each Holder at their last addresses
as they shall appear upon the Warrant Register, at least 30 calendar days prior
to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice
stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such
dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to
be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be
entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to
be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation,
merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or
close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of
record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for
securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, share exchange, dissolution, liquidation
or winding up; provided, however, that the failure to mail such notice or any
-------- -------
defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the
corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
8. Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may exercise this Warrant by
--------------------------
tendering to the Company cash or certified or official bank check or checks in
an amount calculated
Page 6
by multiplying the Exercise Price per share by the number of Warrant Shares the
Holder desires to purchase.
10. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue or
------------------
cause to be issued fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of this Warrant.
The number of full Warrant Shares which shall be issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant
Shares purchasable on exercise of this Warrant so presented. If any fraction of
a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 9, be issuable
on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall, at its option, (i) pay an
amount in cash equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction or (ii)
round the number of Warrant Shares issuable, up to the next whole number.
11. Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
-------
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the
earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this
Section, (ii) the business day following the date of mailing, if sent by
internationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iii) upon actual
receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The addresses

11.
12. Warrant Agent.
--------------
(a) The Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant.
Upon 30 days' notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent.
(b) Any corporation into which the Company or any new warrant
agent may be merged or any corporation resulting from any consolidation to which
the Company or any new warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to
which the Company or any new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its

agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant
agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as warrant

Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the
Holder.

in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada without regard to
the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
(d) The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any
of the provisions hereof.
(e) In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant
shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and
enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good
faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a
