PROVECTUS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
1. Issuance; Certain Definitions. In consideration of good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by PROVECTUS
PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),
______________________________________________ or registered assigns (the
"Holder") is hereby granted the right to purchase at any time until 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time on April 30, 2008, Seventy-Five Thousand (75,000) fully paid
and nonassessable shares of the Company's Common Stock, $0.001 par value per
share (the "Common Stock"), at an initial exercise price per share (the
"Exercise Price") of $1.00 per share, subject to further adjustment as set forth
herein. Capitalized terms not otherwise herein defined shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Finders Fee Agreement between the Company and Centre
Capital Advisors, LLC dated April 19, 2004 (the "Agreement").
2. Exercise of Warrants.
2.1 Method of Exercise.
(a) This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part at any time and from time to
time. Such exercise shall be effectuated by submitting to the Company (either by
delivery to the Company or by facsimile transmission as provided in Section 8
hereof) a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise (substantially in the
form attached to this Warrant) as provided in this paragraph. The date such
Notice of Exercise is faxed to the Company shall be the "Exercise Date,"
provided that the Holder of this Warrant tenders this Warrant Certificate to the
Company within five (5) business days thereafter. The Notice of Exercise shall
be executed by the Holder of this Warrant and shall indicate the number of
shares then being purchased pursuant to such exercise. Upon surrender of this
Warrant Certificate, together with appropriate payment of the Exercise Price for
the shares of Common Stock purchased, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a
certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased.
(b) If the Notice of Exercise form elects a "cashless" exercise, the Holder
shall thereby be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
(x) the excess of the Current Market Value (as defined below) over the total
cash exercise price of the portion of the Warrant then being exercised, divided
by (y) the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately
prior to the Exercise Date. For the purposes of this Warrant, the terms (Q)
"Current Market Value" shall be an amount equal to the Market Price of the
Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior to the Exercise Date,
multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such Notice of
Exercise Form, and (R) "Market Price of the Common Stock" shall be the closing
price of the Common Stock as reported by the Reporting Service for the relevant
date. The holder may not elect a "cashless" exercise until one year from the
date hereof or any time when there is a currently effective registration
statement for the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants.
(c) If the Notice of Exercise form elects a "cash" exercise, the Exercise Price
per share of Common Stock for the shares then being exercised shall be payable
in cash or by certified or official bank check.
(d) The Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of the shares issuable to it in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.1 on the Exercise Date
1
2.2 Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Warrant, the
Agreement or of the other Transaction Agreements, in no event (except (i) as
specifically provided in this Warrant as an exception to this provision, (ii)
while there is outstanding a tender offer for any or all of the shares of the
Company's Common Stock, or (iii) at the Holder's option, on at least sixty-five
(65) days' advance written notice from the Holder) shall the Holder be entitled
to exercise this Warrant, or shall the Company have the obligation to issue
shares upon such exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant to the extent
that, after such exercise the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the
unexercised portion of the Warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock),
and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the
Warrants with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made,
would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more
than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (after taking into account
the shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise). For purposes of the
proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of
such sentence. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, further agrees
that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Warrants, such assignment
shall be made subject to the transferee's or assignee's specific agreement to be
bound by the provisions of this Section 2.2 as if such transferee or assignee
were the original Holder hereof.
3. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at all times during the
term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this
Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be required for
issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").
4. Mutilation or Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this
Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of reasonably
satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a duplicate
Warrant and any such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall
thereupon become void.
5. Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to
any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law or equity, and the
rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and are not
enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
6. Protection Against Dilution and Other Adjustments.
6.1 Adjustment Mechanism. If an adjustment of the Exercise Price is required
pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall be entitled to purchase such number
of additional shares of Common Stock as will cause (i) the total number of
shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Warrant,
multiplied by (ii) the adjusted Exercise Price per share, to equal (iii) the
dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled
to purchase before adjustment multiplied by the total Exercise Price immediately
before adjustment.
6.2 Capital Adjustments. In case of any stock split or reverse stock split,
stock dividend, reclassification of the Common Stock, recapitalization, stock
issuance, merger or consolidation, or like capital adjustment affecting the
Common Stock of the Company prior to the exercise of this Warrant or its
applicable portion, the provisions of this Section 6 shall be applied as if such
capital adjustment event had occurred immediately prior to the exercise date of
this Warrant and the original Exercise Price had been fairly allocated to the
stock resulting from such capital adjustment; and in other respects the
provisions of this Section shall be applied in a fair, equitable and reasonable
manner so as to give effect, as nearly as may be, to the purposes hereof.
6.3 Spin Off. If, for any reason, prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full,
the Company spins off or otherwise divests itself of a part of its business or
operations or disposes all or of a part of its assets in a transaction (the
"Spin Off") in which the Company does not receive compensation for such
business, operations or assets, but causes securities of another entity to be
issued to security holders of the Company, then the Company shall notify the
Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the record date with respect to such
Spin-Off.
7. Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act; Registration Rights.
7.1 Transfer. This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, (the "Act") and has been issued to the Holder for investment
and not with a view to the distribution of either the Warrant or the Warrant
Shares. Except for transfers to officers, employees and affiliates of the
Holder, neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant Shares or any other security
issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be sold, transferred,
pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective registration statement
under the Act relating to such security or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the Company that registration is not required under the Act. Each certificate
for the Warrant, the Warrant Shares and any other security issued or issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall contain a legend on the face thereof, in
form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company, setting forth the
restrictions on transfer contained in this Section.
