WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
						
	No. CSW-6	November 4, 2020


VOID AFTER NOVEMBER 9, 2023
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Dinver LLC (the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from GRI Bio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Exercise Shares at the Exercise Price (each subject to adjustment as provided herein).
1.    DEFINITIONS.  As used herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:
(a)    “Acceleration Event” means (i) the closing of the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or capital stock, (ii) the consummation of the merger, consolidation or other business combination of the Company (directly or indirectly) with or into another entity (except a merger or consolidation in which the holders of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other business combination continue to hold at least 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company or the surviving or acquiring entity), (iii) the consummation of a merger, consolidation or other business combination by the Company with a corporation or other entity that has a class of equity securities (or is a subsidiary of a corporation or other entity that has a class of equity securities) registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or is otherwise a public reporting company by virtue of having registered securities under the Securities Act, in either case regardless whether the holders of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other business combination continue to hold at least 50% of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company or the surviving or acquiring entity, (iv) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, and (v) the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (or successor form) under the Act; provided, however, that a transaction shall not constitute an Acceleration Event if its sole purpose is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation.
(b)    “Exercise Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date hereof and ending three (3) years later; provided, however, the Exercise Period shall end and this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable and shall become null and void (except the right to receive the securities and property to which the Holder is entitled by virtue of exercising or converting this Warrant in connection with any Acceleration Event) upon consummation of an Acceleration Event. In the event the Company proposes to consummate an Acceleration Event, this Warrant shall be deemed exercised automatically pursuant to Section 2.2 immediately prior to the consummation of such Acceleration Event.  The Company shall give the Holder written notice of the expiration of the Exercise Period not less than 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the end of the Exercise Period.
(c)    “Exercise Price” shall mean $1.30 per Exercise Share subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5 below.
(d)    “Exercise Shares” shall mean 19,231 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.








2.    EXERCISE OF WARRANT. The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Exercise Period, by delivery of the following to the Company at its address set forth above (or at such other address as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder):
(a)    An executed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto;
(b)    Payment of the Exercise Price either (i) in cash (which may be in physical form or delivered by wire transfer of immediately available funds) or by check, or (ii) by cancellation of indebtedness; and
(c)    This Warrant.
Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the Exercise Shares so purchased, registered in the name of the Holder or persons affiliated with the Holder, if the Holder so designates, shall be issued and delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised.  In the event that this Warrant is being exercised for less than all of the then-current number of Exercise Shares purchasable hereunder, the Company shall, concurrently with the issuance by the Company of the number of Exercise Shares for which this Warrant is then being exercised, issue a new Warrant exercisable for the remaining number of Exercise Shares purchasable hereunder.
The person in whose name any certificate or certificates for Exercise Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate or certificates, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.
2.1    Net Exercise.  Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one Exercise Share is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of 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 in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Exercise Shares computed using the following formula the “Net Exercise Formula”):
X = Y (A-B)
A
Where X = the number of Exercise Shares to be issued to the Holder
Y =    the number of Exercise Shares purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, that portion of the Warrant being canceled (at the date of such calculation)
A =    the fair market value of one Exercise Share (at the date of such calculation)
B =    Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)
For purposes of the above calculation, the fair market value of one Exercise Share shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith; provided, however, that in the event that this Warrant is exercised pursuant to this Section 2.1 in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of its Common Stock, the fair market value per share shall be the per share offering price to the public of the Company’s initial public offering.
2.2    Automatic Net Exercise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to contrary herein, upon an Acceleration Event, if the fair market value of one Exercise Share (as determined by the Board in 








connection with such Acceleration Event) is greater than the Exercise Price, then immediately prior to the closing of such Acceleration Event, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised in accordance with the formula set forth above in Section 2.1 without any further act of the Company or the Holder, and the Holder will receive the consideration to be received in such Acceleration Event, if any, in respect of the Exercise Shares received upon such net exercise in accordance with Section 2.1.  In connection with any automatic exercise of the Warrant pursuant to this Section 2.2, upon request by the Company, Holder agrees to execute, deliver and enter into any documents or agreements executed or otherwise entered into by other security holders of the Company in connection with the Acceleration Event giving rise to such exercise.
3.    COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
3.1    Covenants as to Exercise Shares.  The Company covenants and agrees that (i) all Exercise Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any stockholder, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof, and issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation, and (ii) this Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued.  The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times during the Exercise Period, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of the series of equity securities comprising the Exercise Shares to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.  If at any time during the Exercise Period the number of authorized but unissued shares of such series of the Company’s equity securities shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of such series of the Company’s equity securities to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.  The Company shall pay all expenses of any legal and other advisors to the Company in connection with the issuance or delivery of Exercise Shares.  The Company, upon reasonable request of the Holder, shall, as promptly as practicable, inform the Holder as to whether the Company is aware of any applicable transfer taxes that are payable in connection with the issuance or delivery of Exercise Shares and the amount of any such applicable transfer taxes.
4.    REPRESENTATIONS OF HOLDER.
4.1    Acquisition of Warrant for Personal Account.  The Holder represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Warrant and the Exercise Shares solely for its account for investment and not with a view to or for sale or distribution of said Warrant or Exercise Shares or any part thereof.  The Holder also represents that the entire legal and beneficial interests of the Warrant and Exercise Shares the Holder is acquiring is being acquired for, and will be held for, its account only.
4.2    Securities Are Not Registered.
(a)    The Holder understands that the Warrant and the Exercise Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act on the basis that no distribution or public offering of the stock of the Company is to be effected.  The Holder realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding its representations, the Holder has a present intention of acquiring the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the securities. The Holder has no such present intention.
(b)    The Holder recognizes that the Warrant and the Exercise Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available.  The Holder recognizes that the Company has no obligation to register the Warrant or the Exercise Shares of the Company under the Act, or to comply with any exemption from such registration, except to the extent the Company is required to do so by the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.








(c)    The Holder is aware that neither the Warrant nor the Exercise Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 adopted under the Act unless certain conditions are met, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of shares being sold during any three month period not exceeding specified limitations. Holder is aware that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Company presently has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future.
4.3    Disposition of Warrant and Exercise Shares.
(a)    The Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any part of the Warrant or Exercise Shares in any event unless and until:
(i)    The Company shall have received a letter secured by the Holder from the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that no action will be recommended to the Commission with respect to the proposed disposition;
(ii)    There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said registration statement; or
(iii)    The Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, for the Holder to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of such Warrant or Exercise Shares under the Act or any applicable state securities laws. The Company agrees that it will not require an opinion of counsel with respect to transactions under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except in unusual circumstances.
(b)    The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates evidencing the shares to be issued to the Holder may bear the following legend:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may transfer or assign this Warrant and all rights hereunder pursuant to Section 9.
4.4    Accredited Investor Status.  The Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
5.    ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF EXERCISE SHARES.
(a)    In the event of changes in the series of equity securities of the Company comprising the Exercise Shares by reason of stock dividends, splits, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, separations, reorganizations, liquidations, or the like, the number and class of Exercise Shares available under the Warrant in the aggregate and the Exercise Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to give the Holder of the Warrant, on exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price, the total number, class, and kind of shares as the Holder would have owned had the Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the event requiring adjustment.  For purposes of this Section 5, the “Aggregate Exercise Price” shall mean the aggregate Exercise Price payable in connection with the exercise in full 








of this Warrant. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the number of Exercise Shares subject to this Warrant.
(b)    If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 5 but not expressly provided for by such provisions occurs, then the Company shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number of Exercise Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 5; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall decrease the number of Exercise Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 5(b).  If any adjustment is required to the number of Exercise Shares available under this Warrant pursuant to this Section 5(b), the Company will notify the Holder of such adjustment, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the adjustments made, the facts requiring such adjustments and the manner of computing such adjustments
6.    FRACTIONAL SHARES.  No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto.  All Exercise Shares (including fractions) to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share.  If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then current fair market value of one Exercise Share by such fraction.
7.    MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT.  Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company for its own behalf of shares of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, plus up to an additional 18 days to the extent necessary to comply with applicable regulatory requirements), (i) lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock (whether such shares or any such securities are then owned by Holder or are thereafter acquired) or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall apply only to the Company’s first underwritten public offering of its Common Stock under the Securities Act, shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, or the transfer of any shares to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of Holder or the immediate family of Holder, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, and shall be applicable to Holder only if all officers and directors are subject to the same restrictions and the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a similar agreement from all stockholders individually owning more than one percent (1%) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect to conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Preferred Stock).  The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 7 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are consistent with this Section 7 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.  Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Company or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all holders subject to such agreements, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements.
8.    NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS.  This Warrant in and of itself shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.
9.    TRANSFER OF WARRANT.  Subject to applicable laws, the restriction on transfer set forth on the first page of this Warrant, and any restrictions applicable to the transfer of shares set forth in the Company’s 








bylaws, as they may be amended from time to time, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto to any transferee designated by Holder.  The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance satisfactory to the Company.
10.    LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED WARRANT.  If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed.  Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
11.    AMENDMENT.  Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.
12.    NOTICES, ETC.  All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by facsimile or electronic mail if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.  All communications shall be sent to the Company at the address listed above and to the Holder at the last address set forth in the books and records of the Company for said Holder or at such other address as the. Company or the Holder may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto.
13.    ACCEPTANCE.  Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein.
14.    GOVERNING LAW.  This Warrant and all rights, obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements among Delaware residents, made and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
15.    NO IMPAIRMENT.  The Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, 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 to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the Holder in order to protect the exercise rights of the Holder against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant.
16.    SEVERABILITY.  If any term or provision of this Warrant is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Warrant or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.
