FORM OF COMMON STOCK WARRANT
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, (together with its permitted assignees, the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase after the exercise price per share has been established pursuant to Section 1(a) below (the “Exercise Price”) and until the “Expiration Date” (as defined in Section 9 below) that number of shares of the fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Jaguar Animal Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) determined by dividing 50% of the corresponding original principal amount of the Note issued under the Purchase Agreement by the Exercise Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3 hereof), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Stock.” This Warrant is one of a series of Warrants (the “Warrants”) issued pursuant to the terms of that certain Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of December 23, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, the Holder and the other Investors (as defined therein). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning therefor set forth in the Purchase Agreement. This Warrant shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including but not limited to the investor representations set forth in Section 3 of the Purchase Agreement).
1. Exercise Price; Method of Exercise; Payment.
(a) Exercise Price. Subject to adjustment under Section 3 below, upon the closing of the sale of shares by the Company of Common Stock to the public in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on, or before, June 30, 2015 (the “Company’s IPO”), the Exercise Price shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying 80% times the Company’s IPO gross price per share to the public (i.e., a 20% discount to the Company’s IPO gross price per share to the public (the initial “Price to Public” of one share of Common Stock specified in the final prospectus with respect to the offering). If the Company has not consummated the Company’s IPO on or before June 30, 2015, then the Exercise Price shall thereafter be $2.696 per share (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 3).
(b) Cash Exercise. Subject to Sections 9 and 10 hereof and Exhibit B attached hereto, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, only after the exercise price has been established pursuant to Section 1(a) above, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly executed) at the principal office of the Company,
and by the payment to the Company, by certified cashier’s or other check acceptable to the Company or wire transfer, of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares of Warrant Stock being purchased.
(c) Net Issue Exercise. Subject to Sections 9 and 10 hereof and Exhibit B attached hereto, in lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly executed) at the principal office of the Company, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Warrant Stock computed using the following formula:
|
|
X = |
Y (A-B) |
|
|
|
|
A |
|
Where X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant Stock is exercised, the portion of the Warrant Stock being exercised (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
A = the fair market value of one share of Warrant Stock.
B = the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
(d) Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 1, the fair market value of the Warrant Stock shall mean:
(i) where there exists a public market for the Company’s Common Stock at the time of such exercise, the fair market value per share shall be made giving due consideration to the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Common Stock 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 Nasdaq National Market or any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal, for the five (5) trading days prior to the date as of which the fair market value is being determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event this Warrant is exercised in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock, the fair market value per share of Warrant Stock shall be the per share offering price to the public of the Company’s initial public offering; and
(ii) If Section 1(d)(i) is not applicable, the fair market value of the Warrant Stock per share shall be the price per share which the Company could obtain from a willing buyer for shares sold by the Company from authorized but unissued shares of Warrant Stock as such price shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
(e) Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant Stock so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder within such time.
2. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Stock. All of the Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance and receipt of the Exercise Price therefor, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, except as may be set forth in the Company’s Bylaws or any
contractual agreement to which the Holder or the Warrant Stock may be subject. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for issuance sufficient shares of its Warrant Stock and other stock, securities and property to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
3. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, at such time that the Exercise Price has been fixed as established under Section 1(a) of this Warrant, 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 3 as follows:
(a) Reclassification. In case of any reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination or dividend or as otherwise as adjusted under this Section 3), the Company shall execute a new Warrant, providing that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to exercise such new Warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the same aggregate Exercise Price, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification or change by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3. Except for a Liquidation Event (as defined in Section 9), the provisions of this subsection (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes.
(b) Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding after the fixed Exercise Price has been established, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 3(b) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.
(c) Pro Rata Distributions. After the fixed Exercise Price has been established, if the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then, upon any exercise of this Warrant that occurs after the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the Warrant Stock shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise (if applicable), the Distributed Property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in respect of such number of Warrant Stock shares had the Holder been the record holder of such Warrant Stock shares immediately prior to such record date.
(d) Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 3, the number of Warrant Stock Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the increased or decreased number of Warrant Stock Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
4. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder or the Exercise Price thereof shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3 hereof, the Company shall provide notice to the holder of this Warrant setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the number of shares of Warrant Stock which may be purchased and the Exercise Price therefor after giving effect to such adjustment.
5. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder. In lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based upon the fair market value of the Warrant Stock then in effect as determined by the Company.
6. Restrictions Upon Transfer.
(a) The Company need not register a transfer of this Warrant unless the conditions specified in the legends on the front page hereof are satisfied and the transferee has agreed in writing to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant, including transferee acknowledging in writing that it meets the investor suitability criteria set forth in this Warrant and Exhibit B attached hereto. Subject to the satisfaction of such conditions, any transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part (but not less than 25% of the Warrant Stock originally exercisable under this Warrant being transferred), shall be registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, or the office or agency designated by the Company, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto duly executed by Holder and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled.
(b) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 6.
7. Restrictive Legends.
(a) The shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (unless registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) shall be stamped or imprinted with legends in substantially the following form:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT AND THE OFFER AND SALE OF SUCH SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH SALE, OFFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. COPIES OF THE AGREEMENT COVERING THE PURCHASE OF THESE SHARES AND RESTRICTING THEIR TRANSFER MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF THE CORPORATION.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER FOR A PERIOD OF TIME FROM THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CORPORATION’S FIRST UNDERWRITTEN PUBLIC OFFERING AS MORE FULLY PROVIDED IN THE WARRANT TO WHICH THESE SECURITIES WERE ISSUED.
(b) The Company need not register a transfer of shares of Warrant Stock bearing the restrictive legends set forth in this Section 7, unless the conditions specified in such legends are satisfied. The Company may also instruct its transfer agent not to register the transfer of the shares of Warrant Stock, unless all of the conditions specified in the legends set forth in this Section 7 are satisfied.
8. Rights of Stockholders. No holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, as a Warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant shall have been exercised and the shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
9. Expiration of Warrant. This Warrant shall expire and shall no longer be exercisable immediately prior to the first to occur of the following (the “Expiration Date”):
(a) at 5:00 p.m., Pacific time, on December 31, 2017;
(b) the closing of a merger, reorganization, tender offer or similar transaction involving the Company or its securities with or into another entity in which the holders of voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction will hold less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving entity immediately following such transaction as a result of shares held prior to such transaction;
(c) the closing of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; and
(d) any “Deemed Liquidation Event” as set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“COI”) in existence as of December, 2014 (excluding any right of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock holders to opt out of such Deemed Liquidation Event as provided in the COI).
Each of 9(b) through (d), collectively, a “Liquidation Event.”
10. Market Standoff. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering of the Company’s securities, Holder (and any assignee) hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s initial public offering. In addition, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing a public offering of the Company’s securities (other than the initial public offering), Holder hereby agrees to be bound by similar restrictions, and to sign a similar
agreement, in connection with no more than one additional registration statement filed within 12 months after the closing date of the initial public offering, provided that the duration of the lock-up period with respect to such additional registration shall not exceed 90 days from the effective date of such additional registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the last 17 days of the restricted period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of the restricted period the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions imposed by this subsection shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the 15-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond 216 days after the effective date of the registration statement. In addition to and not in lieu of the foregoing, as requested at any time by the Company or any underwriter of the Company, Holder hereby agrees and acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock shall be subject to and Holder shall enter into any such lock-up provisions entered into by the Company’s executive officers and directors at any time and from time to time as a condition to the issuance of this Warrant. Holder acknowledges that such a lock-up agreement has been requested by the Company as a condition to the issuance of this Warrant and Holder shall execute and deliver to the Company and its underwriters such lock-up agreement.
11. Notices, Etc. Any notice, request or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given if given in the manner provided in the Purchase Agreement to the address specified therein or to such other address that the Company or the Holder may specify pursuant to the terms thereof.
12. Governing Law, Headings. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware with venue for all purposes in the State of Delaware. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.
13. Amendment and Waiver. This Warrant may be amended or modified, and the obligations of the Company and the rights of each Holder under this Warrant may be waived, amended or terminated, only upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of a majority of the shares of Warrant Stock then exercisable at any point in time (the “Required Majority Holders”). Holder acknowledges that because this Warrant may be amended or terminated with the consent of the Required Majority Holders, Holder’s rights hereunder, may be amended, terminated or waived without Holder’s individual consent.
14. Holder Representations & Warranties. Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows in addition to Holder’s representations and warranties under Section 3 of the Purchase Agreement:
(a) Holder understands that no public market currently exists for the Warrant or Warrant Stock (collectively, the “Securities”) and that there are no assurances that any such market will be created.
(b) Holder specifically acknowledges and understands that certificates representing the Securities will bear substantially all of the legends set forth in this Warrant, in addition to any other legends required by this Warrant or otherwise.
(c) Holder has full power and authority to deliver these representations and warranties in relation to the Holder’s purchase of the Securities.
(d) Holder is an “accredited” investor as that term is defined under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (as more fully set forth on Annex I attached hereto) neither Holder nor any person or entity with whom Holder shares beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities, is subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act, attached hereto as Annex II.
(e) Holder acknowledges that the Company is relying on the accuracy of the above representations and is entitled to rely on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties and that the foregoing representations and warranties will survive Holder’s admission as a Holder of the Company.
(f) Holder represents and warrants that the above acknowledgements, representations and agreements are true and accurate as of the date hereof. Holder also agrees to inform the Company should any of the information contained in these representations and warranties cease to be true and/or accurate. Holder acknowledges that in the event it does not inform the Company of any change to the information contained in these representations and warranties, the Company and its respective professional advisers will be entitled to continue to rely on the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties until and including the date the Holder purchases the Securities.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
PURCHASER :
COMPANY : JAGUAR ANIMAL HEALTH, INC.
SECURITY : COMMON STOCK ISSUED UPON EXERCISE OF THE
AMOUNT : SHARES
DATE : , 20
In connection with the purchase of the above referenced shares (the “Securities”), the undersigned represents to the Company the following:
The undersigned is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition, and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. The undersigned is purchasing these Securities for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The undersigned understands that offer and sale of the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the undersigned’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, the undersigned understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if this representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future.
The undersigned further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless the offer and sale of the Securities are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available. Moreover, the undersigned understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the offer and sale of the Securities. In addition, the undersigned understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless the offer and sale of the Securities are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel for the Company.
The undersigned is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
The Securities may be resold in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires, among other things, the existence of a public market for the Securities, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sales being effected through a “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a “market maker” and the number of Securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.
The undersigned further understands that in the event that all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.
The undersigned hereby ratifies and confirms all of the original Holder’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 14 of the Warrant, including but not limited to that the undersigned is an “Accredited Investor” as set forth in the Warrant and is not a “Bad Actor” as set forth in the Warrant and if the undersigned is not a United States person as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), Holder hereby represents that Holder has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities or any use of the Warrant, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any government or other consents that may need to be obtained in connection with such purchase, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Securities. Holder’s purchase and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Warrant Stock will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Holder’s jurisdiction. Holder acknowledges that no representations or warranties, oral or written, have been made by the Company or any agent thereof in connection with Holder’s exercise of this Warrant.

Any private business development Corporation as defined in Section 202(a)(22) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940;
Any organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, corporation, Massachusetts or similar business trust, or partnership, not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities offered, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000;

As used in this Annex I, the term “net worth” means the excess of total assets over total liabilities. For the purpose of determining a person’s net worth, the principal residence owned by an individual shall be excluded. As used hrein, “income” means actual economic income, which may differ from adjusted gross income for income tax purposes. Accordingly, the undersigned should consider whether it should add any or all of the following items to its adjusted gross income for income tax purposes in order to reflect more accurately its actual economic income: Any amounts attributable to tax-exempt income received, losses claimed as a limited partner in any limited partnership, deductions claimed for depletion, contributions to an XXX or Xxxxx retirement plan, and alimony payments.
