DIATIDE, INC.
Common Stock Purchase Warrant
(Void after September 23, 1999)
Diatide, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby certifies that Medsource S.A. or its registered assigns (the
"Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time on or after the
date of issuance and on or before September 23, 1999 at not later than 5:00
p.m. (Boston, Massachusetts time), 46,154 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par
value per share, of the Company, at a purchase price of $11.70 per share. The
shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per
share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase
Price," respectively.
1. Exercise.
(a) Subject to compliance by the Registered Holder of
this Warrant and the Company with the requirements of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, if applicable, this Warrant may be
exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering this
Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by
such Registered Holder or by such Registered Holder's duly authorized attorney,
at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as
the Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of
the United States (or surrender of Warrants as provided below), of the Purchase
Price payable in respect of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such
exercise.
(rev. 9/23/97)

(b) The Registered Holder may, at its option to the
extent it holds sufficient warrants in-the-money, to elect to pay some or all
of the Purchase Price payable upon an exercise of this Warrant by cancelling a
portion of this Warrant exercisable for such number of Warrant Shares as is
determined by dividing (i) the total Purchase Price payable in respect of the
number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon such exercise by (ii) the excess
of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of the effective date of
exercise, as determined pursuant to subsection 1(c) below (the "Exercise Date")
over the Purchase Price per share. If the Registered Holder wishes to exercise
this Warrant pursuant to this method of payment with respect to the maximum
number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to this method, then the number
of Warrant Shares so purchasable shall be equal to the total number of Warrant
Shares, minus the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of
Warrant Shares by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Purchase
Price per share and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per
share of Common Stock as of the Exercise Date. The Fair Market Value per share
of Common Stock shall be determined as follows:
If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, the
NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ system, or another nationally
recognized exchange or trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the last reported sale
price per share of Common Stock thereon on the Exercise Date; or, if no such
price is reported on such date, such price on the next preceding business day
(provided that if no such price is reported on the next preceding business day,
the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined pursuant to
the next paragraph).
If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange,
the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ system or another nationally
recognized exchange or trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the amount most recently
determined by the Board of Directors to represent the fair market value per
share of the Common Stock (including without limitation a determination for
purposes of granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an
employee benefit plan of the Company); and, upon request of the Registered
Holder, the Board of Directors (or a representative thereof) shall promptly
notify the Registered Holder of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board of Directors has not made
such a determination within the three-month period prior to the Exercise Date,
then (A) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be the amount
next determined by the Board of Directors to represent the fair market value
per share of the Common Stock (including without limitation a determination for
purposes of granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an
employee benefit plan of the Company), (B) the Board of Directors shall make
such a determination within 15 days of a request by the Registered Holder that
it do so, and (C) the exercise of this
-2-
3
Warrant pursuant to this subsection 1(b) shall be delayed until such
determination is made.
(c) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have
been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which
this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in
subsection 1(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or
names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise
as provided in subsection 1(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder
or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates.
(d) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this
Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within 10 days thereafter, the
Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered
to, the Registered Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of
any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:
(i) a certificate or certificates for the number
of full Warrant Shares to which such Registered Holder shall be entitled upon
such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Registered
Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant to
Section 3 hereof; and
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new
warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the
aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal
(without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares
called for on the face of this Warrant minus the sum of (a) the number of such
shares purchased by the Registered Holder upon such exercise plus, (b) the
number of Warrant Shares (if any) covered by the portion of this Warrant
cancelled in payments of the Purchase Price payable upon such exercise pursuant
to subsection 1(b) above.
2. Adjustments.
(a) If outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock
shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares or a dividend in Common
Stock shall be paid in respect of Common Stock, the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such subdivision or at the record date of such dividend
shall simultaneously with the effectiveness of such subdivision or immediately
after the record date of such dividend be proportionately reduced. If
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of
shares, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination
shall, simultaneously with the effectiveness of such combination, be
proportionately increased. When any adjustment is required to be made in the
Purchase Price, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an
amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this
-3-
4
Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price
in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in
effect immediately after such adjustment.
(b) If there shall occur any capital reorganization or
reclassification of the Company's Common Stock (other than a change in par
value or a subdivision or combination as provided for in subsection 2(a)
above), or any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another
corporation, or a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, then, as part of any such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may be, lawful provision shall be
made so that the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall have the right
thereafter to receive upon the exercise hereof the kind and amount of shares of
stock or other securities or property which such Registered Holder would have
been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, as the case may be, such
Registered Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock which were then
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In any such case, appropriate
adjustment (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of
the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth
herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Registered
Holder of this Warrant, such that the provisions set forth in this Section 2
(including provisions with respect to adjustment of the Purchase Price) shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as is reasonably practicable, in relation
to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the
Purchase Price, the Company shall promptly mail to the Registered Holder a
certificate setting forth the Purchase Price after such adjustment and setting
forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Such
certificate shall also set forth the kind and amount of stock or other
securities or property into which this Warrant shall be exercisable following
the occurrence of any of the events specified in subsection 2(a) or (b) above.
3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required upon
the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an
adjustment therefor in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock, as determined pursuant to subsection 1(b) above.
4. Requirements for Transfer.
(a) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall not be sold
or transferred unless either (i) they first shall have been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or (ii) the Company first
shall have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably
satisfactory to the Company,
-4-
5
to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration
requirements of the Act.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no registration or
opinion of counsel shall be required for (i) a transfer by a Registered Holder
which is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of
such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any
such partner or retired partner, if the transferee agrees in writing to be
subject to the terms of this Section 4, or (ii) a transfer made in accordance
with Rule 144 under the Act.
(c) Each certificate representing Warrant Shares shall
bear a legend substantially in the following form:
"The securities represented by this certificate have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise
transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless and until such
securities are registered under such Act or an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Company is obtained to the
effect that such registration is not required."
The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any
Warrant Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as they
become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Act.
5. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its
charter or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of
assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights
of the holder of this Warrant against impairment.
6. Liquidating Dividends. If the Company pays a dividend or
makes a distribution on the Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of
earnings or earned surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles) except for a stock dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock (a "Liquidating Dividend"), then the Company will pay or distribute to
the Registered Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise hereof, in addition to
the Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise, the Liquidating Dividend which
would have been paid to such Registered Holder if he had been the owner of
record of such Warrant Shares immediately prior to the date on which a record
is taken for such Liquidating Dividend or, if no record is taken, the date as
of which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends or
distribution are to be determined.
-5-

7. Notices of Record Date, etc. In case:
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the
exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to
receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to
subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other
securities, or to receive any other right; or
(b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or
(c) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company,
then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the
Registered Holder of this Warrant a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend,
distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which
the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the
time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up. Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the
record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.
8. Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve
and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this
Warrant, such number of Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and
property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant.
9. Exchange of Warrants. Upon the surrender by the Registered
Holder of any Warrant or Warrants, properly endorsed, to the Company at the
principal office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of
Section 4 hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at the
Company's expense, a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such
Registered Holder or as such Registered Holder (upon payment by such Registered
Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate
on the face or faces thereof for the
-6-
7
number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant
or Warrants so surrendered.
10. Replacement of Warrants. Upon 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) upon
delivery of an indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an
amount reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation)
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in
lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
11. Transfers, etc.
(a) The Company will maintain a register containing the
names and addresses of the Registered Holders of this Warrant. Any Registered
Holder may change its or his address as shown on the warrant register by
written notice to the Company requesting such change.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, this
Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon
surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed assignment (in the form of
Exhibit II hereto) at the principal office of the Company.
(c) Until any transfer of this Warrant is made in the
warrant register, the Company may treat the Registered Holder of this Warrant
as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes; provided, however, that if and
when this Warrant is properly assigned in blank, the Company may (but shall not
be obligated to) treat the bearer hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all
purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
12. Mailing of Notices, etc. All notices and other
communications from the Company to the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall
be mailed by first-class certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to the
address furnished to the Company in writing by the last Registered Holder of
this Warrant who shall have furnished an address to the Company in writing.
All notices and other communications from the Registered Holder of this Warrant
or in connection herewith to the Company shall be mailed by first-class
certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Company at its principal
office set forth below. If the Company should at any time change the location
of its principal office to a place other than as set forth below, it shall give
prompt written notice to the Registered Holder of this Warrant and thereafter
all references in this Warrant to the location of its principal office at the
particular time shall be as so specified in such notice.

13. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this
Warrant, the Registered Holder of this Warrant shall not have or exercise any
rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company.
14. Change or Waiver. This Warrant may be one of a series of
Warrants issued by the Company, all dated the date hereof and of like tenor,
except as to the number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto
(collectively, the "Company Warrants"). Any term of this Warrant may be
amended or waived upon the written consent of the Company and the holders of
Company Warrants representing at least 51% of the number of shares of Common
Stock then subject to outstanding Company Warrants; provided that any such
amendment or waiver must apply to all Company Warrants then outstanding; and
provided further that the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant and
the Purchase Price of this Warrant may not be amended, and the right to
exercise this Warrant may not be waived, without the written consent of the
holder of this Warrant (it being agreed that an amendment to or waiver under
any of the provisions of Section 2 of this Warrant shall not be considered an
amendment of the number of Warrant Shares or the Purchase Price).
15. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any
provision of this Warrant.
