     Effective Date:                               
WARRANT TO PURCHASE SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
EXEGENICS INC.
EXPIRING            [TEN YEARS FROM ISSUANCE DATE] (THE “EXPIRATION DATE”)
     THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT                      or their permitted assigns (“Holder”), for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, has been granted the right to purchase from eXegenics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at any time and from time to time, for a period commencing on the Effective Date (as defined below) and ending on the Expiration Date,                      (the “Warrant Number”) validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Series C preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein, at the exercise price of $           per share (the “Exercise Price”).
     1. Term of Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, this Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term (“Term”) commencing at 9:00 a.m., New York, New York time, on the date hereof (the “Effective Date”) and ending at 5:00 p.m., New York, New York time on the Expiration Date, and shall be void thereafter.
     2. Exercise of Warrant.
          2.1. Manner of Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are exercisable by the Holder in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, during the Term, by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise (in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A), duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, 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 Holder), upon payment of the purchase price of the Shares to be purchased (i) in cash or wire transfer to an account designated by the Company, (ii) by a Net Issue Election as provided for below or (iii) a combination of the foregoing.
          2.2. Time of Exercise. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above (the “Exercise Date”), and the Person entitled to receive the Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Shares as of the close of business on such date. As used in this Warrant, “Person” shall mean an individual, corporation,

-1-


 

limited liability company, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, joint stock company, government (or any agency or political subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind.
          2.3. Delivery of Certificate and Revised Warrant. As promptly as practicable on or after the Exercise Date and in any event within fifteen (15) days thereafter, the Company at its expense, will issue and deliver to the Person(s) entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number of Shares issuable upon such exercise or other appropriate written evidence of the issuance of the Shares. In the event that this Warrant is exercised in part, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor exercisable for the number of Shares for which this Warrant may then be exercised at the same time.
          2.4. No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional Share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.
          2.5. Net Issue Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one Share is greater than the Exercise Price, in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive Shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise and notice of such election in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Shares computed using the following formula:
             
X   =   Y (A-B)  
 
        A  
 
     Where:
     X = the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder
     Y = the number of Shares purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of such calculation)
     A = the fair market value of one Share on an as converted basis on the Company’s common stock (at the date of such calculation)
     B = Exercise Price
     For purposes of the above calculation, fair market value of one Share shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that where there exists a public market for the Shares at the time of such exercise, the fair market value per Share shall be the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Shares quoted in the Over-the-Counter Market Summary or the last reported sale price of the Common Stock or the closing price quoted on the American Stock Exchange or on any exchange or market on which the Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the Eastern Edition of The

-2-


 

Wall Street Journal for the three (3) trading days immediately prior to the date of determination of fair market value on which at least 10,000 Shares were traded. The Company shall promptly respond in writing to an inquiry by the Holder as to the fair market value of one Share at any particular time.
     3. Adjustments to the Shares.
          3.1. Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If at any time while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, is outstanding and unexpired there shall be (i) a reorganization (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of securities otherwise provided for herein), (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a reverse triangular merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the Company’s shares of capital stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (iii) a sale or transfer of the Company’s properties and assets as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other person, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire the number of Shares or other securities or property which the Holder of this Warrant would have owned immediately after the consummation of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, if the Holder of this Warrant had exercised this Warrant immediately before the effective date of the reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer.
          3.2. Reclassification, etc. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Warrant Number shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided for herein.
          3.3. Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist, into a different number of securities of the same class, the Warrant Number shall be proportionately increased (and the Exercise Price decreased correspondingly) in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately decreased (and the Exercise Price increased correspondingly) in the case of a combination.
          3.4. Adjustments for Dividends in Shares or Other Securities or Property. If while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional securities or property (other than cash) of the Company by way of dividend, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of Shares receivable upon exercise of

-3-


 

this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional securities or property (other than cash) of the Company that such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of the security receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such Shares and/or all other additional securities available to it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Warrant.
     4. Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment or readjustment, the amount of such adjustment or readjustment, the method by which such adjustment or readjustment was calculated, the Exercise Price, and the number of Shares and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant. The Company shall upon the written request, at any time, of any such Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate.
     5. Share Legend. Each certificate for Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant may bear the following legend, unless at the time of exercise such Shares are registered under the Securities Act:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION OR RESALE, AND MAY NOT BE MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 UNLESS REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.
     6. Shares to be Fully Paid. The Company will issue Shares pursuant to this Warrant as fully paid, non-assessable and free from all liens and encumbrances.
     7. Company to Reserve Shares. At all times before the date on which the Warrant expires (the “Expiration Date”), the Company will reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Shares or Shares held in the treasury of the Company, for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, the full number of Shares then deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to those officers of the Company who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.
     8. Exchange of Warrant. The Holder may exchange this Warrant, at the Company’s expense, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, by surrendering this Warrant to the Company, for other warrant certificates, upon the same terms and conditions of this Warrant, which in the aggregate entitle the Holders to purchase the balance of Shares then covered by this

Warrant. In addition, on receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company (but without the requirement for posting an indemnity bond) or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor.
     9. No Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Warrant will not entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive distributions.
     10. Amendment. This Warrant may not be amended except with the prior written consent of the Holder and the Company. Any instrument given by or on behalf of the Holder in connection with any consent to any modification or amendment will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent holders of this Warrant.
     11. 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 Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company issue or cause to be issued a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
     12. Transfer. The securities evidenced hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws; such securities may not be transferred, sold, pledged, or otherwise disposed of unless such securities are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and such state laws or such transactions are exempt from the registration requirements thereof. Upon surrender of this Warrant as a result of a transfer hereof, the Company, at the expense of the transferee or transferor hereof, as the transferee and transferor may decide between themselves, will issue and deliver to, or to the order of, the transferee a new Warrant in the name of such transferee, or as such transferee (on payment by such transferee of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face thereof for the number of Shares called for on the face of this Warrant. As a condition to effecting any transfer, the Holder shall notify the Company of the proposed transfer by delivering a Notice of and Form of Assignment (in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B), duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder 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 Holder).
     13. Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall not be assignable by the Company without the prior written consent of the Holder and any such assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Warrant shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company and its permitted successors and assigns, the Holder and its successors and assigns.
     14. Applicable Law. This Warrant shall be construed in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof.
