Company prior to the maturity or acceleration hereof (subject to the proviso in
the following sentence), the entire principal amount of and (at the Company’s
election) accrued
interest on this Note shall be converted into Ordinary Shares. At
least three days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing, the Company
shall notify the Holder in writing of the material terms thereof; provided, that any
material amendment subsequently made to such terms less than three days prior to
the closing of the Next Equity Financing shall require a new notification and
the Holder shall have the right to elect to convert this Note during the three
days following such new notification. In the event the Holder elects
to convert this Note, the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued upon such
conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the entire
principal amount of this Note plus (if applicable) accrued interest by (ii) the
lesser of (x) the vol-
B-2
ume
weighted average price of the Company’s ADSs on Nasdaq for the 30 consecutive
trading days immediately prior to the Original Issuance Date and (y) if the
conversion is being made in connection with the Next Equity Financing, 90% of
the price per Ordinary Share paid by the investors in such Next Equity
Financing, rounded down to the nearest whole share. If the conversion
is being made in connection with the Next Equity Financing, the Holder will
participate in such Next Equity Financing on the same terms and conditions as
any other cash investor, including to receive, in addition to the Ordinary
Shares of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Note, warrants (the “Equity Financing
Warrants”) having the same terms as those, if any, issued to the
investors in the Next Equity Financing (the “Investor Warrants”),
representing a number of Ordinary Shares of the Company equal to the product of
(i) the number of Ordinary Shares of the Company represented by the Investor
Warrants, multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (x) the principal amount of and (if
applicable) interest on such Holder’s Note then being converted, divided by (y)
the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company in such Next Equity
Financing. If the Company elects to convert accrued interest into
Ordinary Shares, such election shall apply equally to all of the
Notes. Upon such conversion, the Holder shall execute and deliver to
the Company all transaction documents related to the Next Equity Financing,
including a purchase agreement and other ancillary agreements, with customary
representations and warranties and transfer restrictions, and having the same
terms and conditions as those agreements entered into by the other purchasers in
the Next Equity Financing. For purposes of clarification, if a
conversion is done in connection with a Next Equity Financing (and 90% of the
price per Ordinary Share paid by the investors in such Next Equity Financing is
lower than the volume weighted average price of the Company’s ADSs on Nasdaq for
the 30 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the Original Issuance
Date), for each $0.90 of principal amount of Note so converted, the Holder shall
receive an amount of securities (units if applicable) equal to such amount that
would otherwise be issued to a purchaser in the Next Equity Financing if such
purchaser had paid $1.00 cash consideration. Under no circumstances
shall the Holder be required to surrender any outstanding warrants then held by
the Holder, including the Warrants issued in connection herewith, nor shall the
amount of securities issued in the Next Equity Financing made in connection with
a conversion hereunder be offset by such outstanding warrants.
(b) Payment of
Interest. Upon conversion of the principal amount of this Note
into the Company’s Ordinary Shares, any interest accrued on this Note that is
not converted into Ordinary Shares shall be promptly paid to the
Holder.
(c) Mechanics and Effect of
Conversion. No fractional shares of the Company’s capital
stock will be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any
fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company
will pay to the Holder in cash the amount that would otherwise be converted into
such fractional share. Upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this
Section 4, the Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed to the
Company. At its expense, the Company will, as soon as practicable
thereafter, issue and deliver to (i) the Company’s ADS depositary, with a copy
to the Holder, irrevocable instructions to issue to the Holder one or more
account statements in the name of the Holder reflecting the issuance of ADSs
covering the number of Ordinary Shares into which this Note is converted and
(ii) the Holder payment for any cash amounts payable as described
herein. Upon conversion of this Note, the Company will be forever
released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note with regard
to that portion of the principal amount and (if applicable) accrued interest
being
B-3
converted
including without limitation the obligation to pay such portion of the principal
amount and accrued interest.
5. Registration
and Transfer of Note. The Company shall keep at its principal
office a register in which the Company shall provide for the registration and
transfer of this Note, in which the Company shall record the name and address of
the Holder and the name and address of each permitted transferee and prior owner
of the Note. The Holder shall notify the Company of any change of
name or address and promptly after receiving such notification the Company shall
record such information in such register. Prior to the maturity,
acceleration or conversion hereof, neither this Note nor any rights or interests
hereunder may be transferred in whole or in party by the Holder without the
prior written consent of the Company.
6. Loss or
Mutilation. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Note, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and (in
the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the
Company will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Note of like tenor as the
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
7. Payment
and Taxation. All payments to the Holder under this Note shall
be made in United States dollars, by remittance to such bank account as the
Holder may notify the Company in writing from time to time. Except as
otherwise required by law, the Company shall make all payments in respect of
this Note without withholding or deduction of or on account of any present or
future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature
imposed or levied by or on behalf of the relevant governmental authority therein
or thereof. The Company shall pay any and all taxes (other than
income taxes) that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of
Ordinary Shares upon conversion of this Note.
8. Governing
Law. THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT
REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS-OF-LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT THEREUNDER OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE

AMARIN
CORPORATION PLC
[FORM
OF] WARRANT TO PURCHASE ORDINARY SHARES
Warrant
No.: [ ]
Date of
Issuance: July ___, 2009 (the “Original Issuance
Date”)
FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, Amarin Corporation plc, a company incorporated under the laws of
England and Wales (the “Company”),
hereby certifies
that [ ], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the
“Holder”),
is entitled,
subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the
Exercise Price then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase
Ordinary Shares (including any Warrants to Purchase Ordinary Shares issued in
exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on
or after the date hereof, but not after 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the
Expiration Date, a number of fully paid nonassessable Ordinary Shares (the
“Warrant
Shares”) equal to the Initial Warrant Share Number, as may be adjusted
pursuant to the terms hereof.
1. Exercise
of Warrant.
(a) Mechanics of
Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this
Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the date hereof,
in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of this Warrant, together with a written
notice, in the form attached hereto as Annex I (the “Exercise
Notice”), of the Holder’s
election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) payment to the Company of an amount
equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant
Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise
Price”) in
cash or wire transfer of immediately available funds. Execution and
delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant
Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and
issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number
of Warrant Shares. As soon as practicable following the date on which
the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise
Price (the “Exercise Delivery
Documents”), the Company shall
confirm receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and deliver to
the Company’s ADS depositary, with a copy to the Holder, irrevocable
instructions to issue to the Holder one or more account statements in the name
of the Holder reflecting the issuance of ADSs covering the number of Ordinary
Shares for
C-1
which
this Warrant is exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery
Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become
the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant
has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificates
evidencing such Warrant Shares. If the number of Warrant Shares
represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of
Warrant Shares being acquired upon such exercise, then the Company shall, not
later than five Business Days thereafter and at its own expense, issue a new
Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the
number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is
exercised. No fractional Ordinary Shares are to be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant and in lieu of any such fraction the Company shall pay
the Holder an amount in cash equal to such fraction of the current fair market
value of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the Exercise Notice. The
Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the
issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this
Warrant.
(b) Insufficient Authorized
Shares. If at any time prior to the Expiration Date and while
the Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of
authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for
issuance upon exercise of the Warrant at least a number of Ordinary Shares (the
“Required Reserve
Amount”) equal to the number of Ordinary Shares for which the outstanding
Warrant is then exercisable, the Company shall promptly use its commercially
reasonable efforts to increase the Company’s authorized Ordinary Shares to an
amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve
Amount.
2. Adjustment
of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares.
(a) In
the event of changes in the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company, on or
after the Original Issuance Date, by reason of a stock dividend, subdivision,
split-up, or combination of shares, the number of shares purchasable under the
Warrant in the aggregate and the Exercise Price shall be correspondingly
adjusted to give the Holder, on exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price,
the total number of shares as the Holder would have owned had the Warrant been
exercised prior to the event requiring adjustment and had the Holder continued
to hold such shares until after such event. The form of this Warrant
need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Exercise Price and/or
number of Warrant Shares. The Company shall promptly provide a
certificate from the Company notifying the Holder in writing of any adjustment
in the Exercise Price and/or the total number of shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant, which certificate shall describe the event giving rise to the
adjustment and specify the Exercise Price and number of shares purchasable under
this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment.
(b) If,
for any reason, prior to the exercise of the Warrant in full, the Company spins
off or otherwise divests itself of a part of its business or operations or
disposes all or a part of its assets (the “Spin Off”), in each
case in a transaction in which the Company does not receive compensation for
such business, operations or assets, but causes securities of another entity
(the “Spin Off
Securities”) to be issued to security holders of the Company, then the
Exercise Price of the Outstanding Warrant shall be adjusted immediately after
consummation of the Spin Off by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the Spin Off by a fraction (if,
C-2
but only
if, such fraction is less than 1.0), the numerator of which is the average
closing bid price of the Company’s ADSs for the five trading days immediately
following the fifth trading day after the record date (the “Record Date”) for
determining the amount and number of Spin Off Securities to be issued to
security holders of the Company, and the denominator of which is the average
closing bid price of the ADSs for the five trading days immediately preceding
the Record Date; and such adjusted Exercise Price shall be deemed to be the
Exercise Price with respect to the outstanding Warrant after the consummation of
the Spin Off.
3. Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant
hereto. All Ordinary Shares (including fractions) issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether
the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional
share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the
issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any
fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in
cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then current fair
market value of an Ordinary Share by such fraction
4. Certain
Events. In the event that, prior to the Expiration Date, any
capital reorganization, or any reclassification of the capital stock of the
Company (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or
no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend, subdivision,
split-up or combination of shares), or the consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger solely to effect a
reincorporation of the Company into another state), in each case, in which the
shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such capital reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation or merger, will hold less than a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Company or resulting corporation immediately after
such capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, or the
sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and
assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in its entirety to
any other person, other than sales or other dispositions that do not require
shareholder approval (each, an “Event”), the Company
shall provide to the Holder ten (10) days’ advance written notice of such Event,
and the Holder shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to allow any
unexercised portion of the Warrant to be deemed automatically
exercised. This Warrant will be binding upon the successors and
assigns of the Company upon an Event.
5. Other
Agreements of the Company.
(a) Notices of Corporate
Events. In the event of 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 (other than a cash
dividend which is the same as cash dividends paid in previous quarters) or other
distribution, the Company shall mail to the Holder, where practicable, at least
ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or
distribution; provided, that the
failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof
shall not adversely affect the validity of the dividend or distribution required
to be specified in such notice.
C-3
(b) No
Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to
by the Holder in writing, the Company will not, by amendment of its
organizational documents or through any consolidation, merger, reorganization,
transfer of assets, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other
action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms
to be observed or performed hereunder, and will at all times in good faith
assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the
taking of all commercially reasonable actions as may be necessary in order to
protect the exercise rights of the Holder against impairment.
(c) Reservation of Ordinary
Shares. The Company agrees that it will at all times prior to
the Expiration Date, maintain and reserve a sufficient number of authorized but
unissued Ordinary Shares to provide for the full exercise of the
Warrant.
6. Transfers.
(a) Transfer
Restrictions. This Warrant may only be disposed of in
compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with
any transfer of this Warrant other than pursuant to an effective registration
statement or Rule 144 or to the Company, the Company may require the transferor
thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the
transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of
which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect
that such transfer does not require registration of this Warrant under the
Securities Act. Subject to the foregoing, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable, by the Holder in person or by duly authorized
attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the Assignment Form attached hereto
as Annex II to
any authorized transferee designated by the Holder with a copy to the
Company
(b) Legend. The
Holder agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 6, of a
legend on the Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares, in the following
form:
THIS
SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND, ACCORDINGLY,
MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT THEREUNDER OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE
EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS THEREOF AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE
TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE
TO THE COMPANY.
(c) Legend
Removal. The Company shall, promptly following delivery by the
Holder of the certificate for this Warrant bearing a restrictive legend, issue a
certificate without such legend if, unless otherwise required by state
securities laws, (i) this Warrant is registered for resale under the Securities
Act, (ii) this Warrant is eligible to be freely sold without restriction under
Rule 144, or (iii) such legend is not required under applicable requirements of
the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued
by the staff of the Commission).
C-4
(d) Permitted
Transfers. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder
shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith
issue and deliver
upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant, registered as the Holder may
request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being
transferred by the Holder and, if less then the total number of Warrant Shares
then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant to the Holder
representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being
transferred.
(e) Loss or
Mutilation. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and
(in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the
Company will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant of like tenor as
the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
(f) Exchange for Multiple
Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender
hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant
or Warrants representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of
Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will
represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is
designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, that no
Warrants for fractional Ordinary Shares shall be given.
(g) Issuance of New
Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new
Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of
like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of
such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this
Warrant (or the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the
number of Ordinary Shares underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection
with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying
this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of
such new Warrant, which is the same as the Original Issuance Date, and (iv)
shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

REGISTRATION
RIGHTS
The
common shares and the warrant shares acquired by the investors at each closing
of the Next Equity Financing (the “Registrable Securities”) will be registered
for resale promptly following such closing. Accordingly, the purchase
agreement for the Next Equity Financing will provide that, among other things, a
registration statement would be filed within 60 days following each closing, and
the Company would use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to
become effective within 90 days following the date of filing of the relevant
registration statement. The Company will cause the registration
statement to remain effective until all of the Registrable Securities registered
under such registration statement are available for resale through Rule 144
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any successor provision
thereto, without any volume limitations.
The
holders of Registrable Securities will be entitled to unlimited piggyback
registration rights, subject to pro rata cutback, if applicable. All
expenses (including reasonable expenses of one counsel to the selling Investors)
will be paid by the Company (excluding underwriting commissions).
Until the
Registrable Securities are registered, the Company will not grant any additional
registration rights without the approval of the holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities unless such rights are subordinate to the rights of the
investors.
