 COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT 
 To
Purchase 1,250,000 Shares of $0.0001 par value Common Stock of 
 Star Scientific, Inc. 
 THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) CERTIFIES that, for value received, Joseph L. Schwarz (the
“Holder”), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after June 29, 2007 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to
the close of business on July 14, 2011 (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter (the “Exercise Period”), to subscribe for and purchase from Star Scientific, Inc., a corporation incorporated in Delaware (the
“Company”), up to 1,250,000 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock (the
“Exercise Price”) under this Warrant shall be $1.00, subject to adjustment hereunder. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrant is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. The
term “Holder” shall refer to the Holder identified above or any subsequent transferee of this Warrant. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase and Registration
Rights Agreement, dated June 29, 2007, between the Company and Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”). 
 1.
Authorization of Warrant Shares. The Company represents and warrants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by
this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 
 2. Exercise of Warrant. 
 (a) Except as provided in Section 3 herein, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or
times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and before or on the Termination Date by (i) surrendering this Warrant, with the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto completed and duly executed, to the offices of the Company (or such other office
or agency (including the transfer agent, if applicable) of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered 








 
Holder at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company) and (ii) delivering payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby
purchased by wire transfer of immediately available funds or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. The Holder exercising his purchase rights in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the
number of Warrant Shares so purchased, which certificate will bear a legend substantially similar to the legend set forth on this Warrant. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be issued and delivered to the Holder or to an individual
retirement account personal to the Holder within five (5) Trading Days (as defined below) after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or
certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder shall be deemed to no longer hold this Warrant with respect to such shares and to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, in each case as of the date the
Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 4 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. 
 (b) In the event that the Warrant is not exercised in full, the number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced by the number of such Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercised and/or surrendered, and the Company, if requested by Holder and at his expense, shall within ten (10) Trading Days issue and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor in the name of the Holder
or as the Holder (upon payment by Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, reflecting such adjusted Warrant Shares. 
 “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which there is trading on the Principal Market or such other market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then principally traded. 
 3. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price.

 4. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any
issue tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder; provided, however,
that the Holder shall pay any applicable transfer taxes. 
 5. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or
records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 6. Division and
Combination. 
  

 2 








 (a) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof
at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or his agent or attorney. The Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice 
 (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.
No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or payment and this Warrant shall
no longer be issuable with respect to such Warrant Shares. 
 8. 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 Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of
indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate. 
 9. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or
legal holiday. 
 10. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon
the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in
shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares
of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such adjustment of the
kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of 

  

 3 








 
Warrant Shares or other securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share or other security obtained by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company
purchasable pursuant hereto as a result of such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event. 

11. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of
the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or
acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of
shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or Common Stock of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or
disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets,
the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume all the obligations and liabilities of the Company hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by
resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this
Section 11. For purposes of this Section 11, “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of
stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the
arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations,
reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, spin-offs, or dispositions of assets. 
 12. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of
Warrant Shares or number or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall give 

  

 4 








 
notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was
made. 
 13. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time: 
 (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other
distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or 
 (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company
or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation, or 
 (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; 
 then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of the date on which a record
date shall be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and
(ii) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of the date when the same shall
take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall
be entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Warrant Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 16(d). 
 14. Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued
Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such
Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation. 
  

 5 








 Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action,
including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities 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 actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to
such increase in par value and (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. 
 15. Call. At any time and from time to time following the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall have the right, upon 20
Business Days’ prior written notice to the Holder (“Call Notice”), to call (require Holder to exercise) all or any portion of this Warrant at the Exercise Price provided that (i) the Warrant Shares are registered for

(vi) the VWAP of the Common Stock on the Principal Market is equal to or greater than $5.00 (subject to adjustment to reflect forward or reverse stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like) (the “Threshold
Price”) for at least 20 consecutive Trading Days, and (vii) the Call Notice is delivered within 3 Business Days’ of the most recent day in the previous clause and that the Common Stock reached the Threshold Price. At any time
prior to the effective date of such call, the Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant in accordance with its terms. 
 “VWAP” shall mean for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on an the Principal Market or the New York Stock
Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Small Cap Market (each an “Approved Market”), the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the primary Approved

on an Approved Market and if prices for the Common Stock are then quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the OTC Bulletin Board; (c) if the Common

upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws and/or as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. 
 (c) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, provided, however, that all
rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall
be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of
his rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
