MACROCHEM CORPORATION
WARRANT
Warrant No. 5 Dated: October 23, 2000
MacroChem Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), hereby
certifies that, for value received, Leerink Swann & Company or its registered
assigns ("HOLDER"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company up to a total of 108,999 shares of common stock, $.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 $7.43 per share (as adjusted from time to time as provided in Section
8, the "EXERCISE PRICE"), at any time and from time to time from and after the
date hereof and through and including October 22, 2005 (the "EXPIRATION DATE"),
and subject to the following 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.
2. 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
Transfer Agent or to the Company at its address for notice set forth in Section
11. 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 set
forth in Section 11 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.
3. DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered
Holder on any business day before 6:30 P.M., New York City time, at any time and
from time to time on or after the date hereof to and including the Expiration
Date. At 6:30 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. The Company may not call or otherwise redeem this Warrant without the
prior written consent of the Holder.
(b) 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 12 and upon payment of the
Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder
intends to purchase hereunder, in the manner provided hereunder, all as
specified by the Holder in the Form of Election to Purchase, the Company shall
promptly (but in no event later than three (3) 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, free of restrictive legends except either in the event that a
registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the
Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant
Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES
ACT"). Any person so designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares shall be
deemed to have become holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Date of
Exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder, if
available, use its best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder
electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established
clearing corporation performing similar functions.
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.
(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.
4. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS. If the Company intends to
file any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(other than registration statements of the Company filed on Form S-8 or Form
S-4, each as promulgated under the Securities Act, pursuant to which the Company
is registering securities pursuant to a Company employee benefit plan or
pursuant to a merger, acquisition or similar transaction including supplements
thereto, but not additionally filed registration statements in respect of such
securities) at any time when there is not an effective registration statement
covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming the Holder as a selling
stockholder thereunder, the Company shall provide the Holder with not less than
20-days notice of its intention to file such registration statement and provide
the Holder the option to include any or all of the applicable Warrant Shares
therein, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of
registration rights. The piggyback registration rights granted to the Holder
pursuant to this Section shall continue until all of the Holder's Warrant Shares
have been sold in accordance with an effective registration statement or upon
the Expiration Date. The Company will pay all registration expenses in
connection therewith.
5. 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. 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.
6. 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 requested, 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.
7. 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 Holder (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 payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms
hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.
8. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS. The Exercise Price and the 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 (except scheduled dividends paid on
outstanding preferred stock as of the date hereof which contain a stated
dividend rate) or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of
its Common Stock or on any other class of capital 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 or
any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted
into other securities, cash 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 or share exchange, and the Holder
shall be entitled upon such event to receive such amount of securities or
property 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 or share exchange. The terms of any such reclassification 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 or share exchange.
(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
the Company's independent certified public accountants that regularly examines
the financial statements of the Company (an "APPRAISER").
(d) If the Company or any subsidiary thereof, as
applicable with respect to Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below), at any
time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall issue shares of Common Stock or
rights, warrants, options or other securities or debt that are convertible into
or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock ("COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS"),
entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at a price per share less
than the lesser of (i) the then Per Share Market Value (as defined in EXHIBIT
A), or (ii) the Exercise Price (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalent so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase
price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange
prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights issued in connection
with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at a price
less than the lesser of (i) the then Per Share Market Value, or (ii) the
Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the
lesser of (i) the then Per Share Market Value, or (ii) the Exercise Price),
then, the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the issuance of such shares of Common Stock or such Common Stock
Equivalents plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the offering price
for such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents would purchase at
the Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus
the number of shares of Common Stock so issued or issuable, PROVIDED, that for
purposes hereof, all shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed outstanding
immediately after the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents. Such adjustment
shall be made whenever such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
are issued. However, upon the expiration of any Common Stock Equivalents the
issuance of which resulted in an adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to
this Section, if any such Common Stock Equivalents shall expire and shall not
have been exercised, the Exercise Price shall immediately upon such expiration
be recomputed and effective immediately upon such expiration be increased to the
price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in the
Exercise Price made pursuant to the provisions of this Section after the
issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents) had the adjustment of the Exercise
Price made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents been made on the
basis of offering for subscription or purchase only that number of shares of
Common Stock actually purchased upon the exercise of such Common Stock
Equivalents actually exercised. The foregoing shall not apply to any (i)
issuances of securities as consideration in a merger, consolidation or
acquisition of assets, or in connection with any strategic partnership or joint
venture (the primary purpose of which is not to raise equity capital), or as
consideration for the acquisition of a business, product or license by the
Company, (ii) the issuance of securities upon the exercise or conversion of the
Company's options, warrants or other convertible securities outstanding as of
the date hereof, including the Warrants dated October 23, 2000, issued to Bay
Harbor Investments, Inc., and the Warrants dated October 23, 2000, issued to
Strong River Investments, Inc., or (iii) the grant of options or warrants, or
the issuance of additional securities, under any duly authorized Company stock
option, restricted stock plan or stock purchase plan.
(e) In case of any (1) merger or consolidation of the
Company with or into another Person other than a merger or consolidation in
which the Company is the surviving entity, or (2) sale by the Company of more
than one-half of the assets of the Company (on a book value basis) in one or a
series of related transactions, the Holder shall have the right, from and after
the date of such merger, sale or consolidation, as the case may be, to and
including the Expiration Date, exercise this Warrant for the shares of stock and
other securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by
holders of Common Stock immediately following such merger, consolidation or
sale, and the Holder shall be entitled upon such event or series of related
events to receive such amount of securities, cash and property as the Common
Stock for which this Warrant could have been exercised immediately prior to such
merger, consolidation or sales would have been entitled, unless the acquiring
company or newly created company shall have paid the Holder the value of the
Warrant determined on a Black-Scholes basis. (For example, if (1) the Company
merges with and into another Person ("NEWCO") and as a result thereof each share
of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to receive two shares of the
common stock of Newco and $2.00 in cash, and (2) the Exercise Price is at the
effective time of such merger $6.00 per share, then at all times thereafter and
prior to the Expiration Date this Warrant shall upon the payment of $6.00 times
the number of Warrant Shares represent the right to receive (A) that number of
shares of the Common Stock of Newco as is equal to two times the Warrant Shares,
and (B) that amount of cash as is equal to $2.00 times the number of Warrant
Shares.) The terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such
terms so as to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities,
cash and property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption
following such event. This provision shall similarly apply to successive such
events.
(f) 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 them (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 of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be
considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
(g) 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.
(h) 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 other than pursuant to its current stock
repurchase program and any extension thereof; 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, 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 20 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.
9. PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. The Holder shall pay the
Exercise Price in one of the following manners:
(a) CASH EXERCISE. The Holder may deliver immediately
available funds; or
(b) CASHLESS EXERCISE. The Holder may surrender this
Warrant to the Company together with a notice of cashless exercise, in which
event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares
determined as follows:
X = Y [(A-B)/A]
where:
X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to
which this Warrant is being exercised.
A = the average of the closing sale prices
of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading
days immediately prior to (but not
including) the Date of Exercise.
B = the Exercise Price.
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless
exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and
the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been
commenced, on the issue date.
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, be
issuable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall pay an amount in
cash equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.
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 prior to 6:30 P.M. (New York City time) on a business day, (ii) the
business day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this
Section later than 6:30 P.M. (New York City time) on any date and earlier than
11:59 P.M. (New York City time) on such date, (iii) the business day following
the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service,
or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be
given. The addresses for such communications shall be: (i) if to the Company, to
110 Hartwell Avenue, Lexington, MA 02421, facsimile: (781) 862-4338, attention
Chief Financial Officer, or (ii) if to the Holder, to the Holder at the address
or facsimile number appearing on the Warrant Register or such other address or
facsimile number as the Holder may provide to the Company in accordance with
this Section.
12. WARRANT AGENT. The Company shall serve as warrant agent
under this Warrant. Upon thirty (30) days notice to the Holder, the Company may
appoint a new warrant agent. 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 corporate trust or shareholders services business shall
be a successor warrant agent under this Warrant without any further act. Any
such successor warrant agent shall promptly cause notice of its succession as
warrant agent to be mailed (by first class mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder
at the Holder's last address as shown on the Warrant Register.
13. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This
Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and
their successors and assigns.
(b) Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to
any person or corporation other than the Company and the Holder any legal or
equitable right, remedy or cause under this Warrant. This Warrant shall inure to
the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Holder.
(c) The corporate laws of the State of Delaware shall
govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and its
stockholders. All other questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. The Company
and the Holder hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan,
for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with
any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, or that
such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Holder
hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by receiving a copy thereof
sent to the Company at the address in effect for notices to it under this
instrument and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
(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
commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall
incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.
