 Exhibit 4.3 
 CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION 
 OF 
 SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK 
 OF 
 MULTICELL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 
 (a
Delaware corporation) 
 pursuant to Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation Law 
 MultiCell Technologies, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, as amended from time to time (the “DGCL”), hereby certifies that the following resolutions were adopted on July 10, 2006 by the Board of Directors of the Corporation in accordance with Section 151 of the
DGCL: 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation currently has authorized (i) 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common
Stock”), and (ii) 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”), of which 20,000 are designated Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series I Preferred
Stock”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as the same be supplemented, amended and restated from time to time (the
“Certificate of Incorporation”), authorizes the issuance of shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, in or more series, each of which shall be known and designated by designations as may be stated and expressed in a
resolution of the Board of Directors; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority granted to the Board of Directors in accordance with
the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors hereby determines that it is in the best interests of the Corporation to authorize the issuance of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and state the designation and number of shares, and
fix the relative rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as follows: 
 (a) Designation. The series of Preferred Stock is
hereby designated Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). 
 (b) Authorized Shares. The
number of authorized shares constituting the Series B Preferred Stock shall be seventeen thousand (17,000) shares of such series. 
 (c)
Dividends. 
 (i) Commencing on the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Original Issue
Date”) until the date the Registration Statement (as defined in that certain Subscription Agreement dated July 14, 2006 between the Corporation and Mercator Momentum Fund III, L.P., and Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. and that certain
Subscription Agreement dated July 14, 2006 between the Corporation and Asset Managers International Ltd. and Pentagon 

  

 -1- 

 
Special Purpose Fund Ltd. (the “Subscription Agreements”)) is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Corporation shall pay on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock out of funds legally available therefor a preferential cumulative dividend (the “Dividend”), at an annual rate equal to the product of multiplying
(A) $100.00 per share (the “Series B Purchase Price”), by (B) the higher of (1) Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus one percent (1%), or (2) nine percent (9%). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall the Dividend be greater than 12% per annum. The Dividend shall be payable monthly in arrears in cash on the last day of each month based on the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding as of the first (1st) day of such month. 
 (ii) The Corporation shall not declare, pay or set aside any dividends on shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation (other than dividends on shares of Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or dividends
payable to the holders of any series of Preferred Stock which is senior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to dividends) unless the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a
dividend on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount at least equal to (i) in the case of a dividend on Common Stock or any class or series that is convertible into Common Stock, that dividend per share of Series B
Preferred Stock as would equal the product of (A) the dividend payable on each share of such class or series determined, if applicable, as if all such shares of such class or series had been converted into Common Stock and (B) the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a share of Series B Preferred Stock, in each case calculated on the record date for determination of holders entitled to receive such dividend or (ii) in the case of a dividend on any class
or series that is not convertible into Common Stock, at a rate per share of Series B Preferred Stock determined by dividing the amount of the dividend payable on each share of such class or series of capital stock by the original issuance price of
such class or series of capital stock and multiplying such fraction by an amount equal to the Series B Purchase Price. 
 (iii) All Dividends
payable on the Series B Preferred Stock shall be paid in cash to the extent permitted by the DGCL, and otherwise shall be paid in shares of Common Stock. In the event that the Board of Directors determines that any Dividend accrued hereunder shall
be paid in shares of Common Stock, the total number of shares to be issued shall equal the nearest whole number of shares (rounded up) obtained by dividing the amount of the dividend to be paid by the Conversion Price (as hereinafter defined) as of
the date on which such dividend is declared by the Board of Directors. 
 (iv) References to a stock that is “senior”
to, on a “parity” with or “junior” to other stock as to dividends shall refer, respectively, to rights of priority of one series or class of stock over another in the declaration and payment of
dividends by the Corporation. The Series B Preferred Stock shall be senior to the Common Stock and senior to the Series I Preferred Stock of the Corporation and to any subsequent series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation with respect to
dividends. 
 (v) In addition, subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as
to dividends and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the Corporation legally available
therefor, such dividends as may be declared thereon from time to time by the Board of Directors. 
  

 -2- 

 (d) Liquidation Preference. 
 (i) Preference upon Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or
involuntary, holders of each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to shareholders, before any payment shall be made to the holders of the Common
Stock, or any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock with regard to any distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether such assets are capital, surplus or
earnings, an amount equal to the greater of: (A) the Series B Purchase Price per share of Series B Preferred Stock held (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends or recapitalizations of the Series B Preferred Stock) and any declared
but unpaid dividends on such shares, and (B) the amount such holders would be entitled to receive had such holders converted such shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock in accordance with paragraph (f) hereof
immediately prior to such distribution (but disregarding for the purposes of the calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible the limitation upon the number of shares of Common
Stock which provides that a holder thereof may not beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Corporation’s then-outstanding Common Stock). The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to share ratably, in accordance with the
respective preferential amounts payable on such stock, in any distribution which is not sufficient to pay in full the aggregate of the amounts payable thereon. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets to be
distributed to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment to such shareholders of the full preferential amounts aforesaid, then, all of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to shareholders
shall be distributed to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. Each holder of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive that portion of the assets available for distribution as the number of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock held by such holder bears to the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Such payment shall constitute payment in full to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Corporation. After such payment shall have been made in full, or funds necessary for such payment shall have been set aside by the Corporation in trust for the account of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, so as to be available for such
payment, such holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to no further participation in the distribution of the assets of the Corporation. 
 (ii) Consolidation, Merger and Other Corporate Events. A consolidation or merger of the Corporation (except into or with a subsidiary corporation) or a sale, lease, mortgage, pledge, exchange, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or any reclassification of the stock of the Corporation (other than a change in par value or from no par to par, or from par to no par or as the result of an event described in
subsection (iv), (v), (vi) or (vii) of paragraph (f)), shall be regarded as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation within the meaning of this paragraph (d), provided, however, in the case of a merger, if
(a) the Corporation is the surviving entity, (b) the Corporation’s shareholders hold a majority of the shares of the surviving entity, and (c) the 

  

 -3- 

 
Corporation’s directors hold a majority of the seats on the board of directors of the surviving entity, then such merger shall not be regarded as a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up within the meaning of this paragraph (d). In no event shall the issuance of new classes of stock, whether senior, junior or on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, or any stock splits, be deemed a
“reclassification” under or otherwise limited by the terms hereof. 
 (iii) Distribution of Cash and Other Assets. In the
event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation resulting in the availability of assets other than cash for distribution to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to a distribution of cash and/or assets equal to the value of the liquidation preference stated in subsection (i) of this paragraph (d), which valuation shall be made solely by the Board of Directors, and provided that such Board of
Directors was acting in good faith, shall be conclusive. 
 (iv) Distribution to Junior Security Holders. After the payment or
distribution to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock of the full preferential amounts aforesaid, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no further rights in respect of such Series B Preferred Stock which shall become null and
void, and the holders of the Common Stock then outstanding, or any other stock of the Corporation ranking as to assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to
receive ratably all of the remaining assets of the Corporation. 
 (v) Preference; Priority. References to a stock that is
“senior” to, on a “parity” with or “junior” to other stock as to liquidation shall refer, respectively, to rights of priority of one series or class of stock over another in the
distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. The Series B Preferred Stock shall be junior to the Series I Preferred Stock of the Corporation and shall be senior to the Common Stock and any subsequent
series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation with respect to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. 
 (e) Voting Rights. Except as otherwise set forth herein or otherwise required by law, the holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote on matters that come before the
shareholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote (irrespective of whether such holders would be entitled to vote pursuant to the DGCL) separately as a class on any (i) proposed
amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation which would increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) proposal to create a new class of shares having rights and preferences equal to or having
priority over the Series B Preferred Stock, (iii) proposed amendments of the Certificate of Incorporation that could adversely affect the powers, preferences, participations, rights, qualifications or restrictions of the Series B Preferred
Stock, (iv) transaction involving the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets (including, without limitation, by merger or consolidation) of the Corporation in any transaction or series of related
transactions or the sale, conveyance or other disposition of assets of the Corporation other than in the ordinary course of business, or (v) transaction pursuant to which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, purchases assets or equity
interests of another business (including, without limitation, by merger or consolidation) in any transaction or series of related transactions other than in the ordinary course of business. Any matter on which the holders of the Series B Preferred
Stock are entitled to vote as a class requires the affirmative vote of holders owning a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
  

 -4- 

 (f) Conversion Rights. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have the following conversion
rights: 
 (i) Right to Convert. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of this paragraph (f), any issued and outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time or from time to time into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the conversion rate in effect at the time of conversion, determined as
provided herein; provided, that a holder of Series B Preferred Stock may at any given time convert only up to that number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock so that, upon conversion, the aggregate beneficial ownership of the
Corporation’s Common Stock (calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of (a) such holder and all persons affiliated with such holder, or (b) M.A.G. Capital, LLC and its affiliates, is not
more than 9.99% of the Corporation’s Common Stock then outstanding. 
 (ii) Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Series
B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock, he shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Common Stock, and
shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that he elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted. Thereupon, the Corporation shall promptly (and in any event
within three (3) business days after receipt of the foregoing written notice) issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series B Preferred Stock a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which he shall
be entitled. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date the written notice is delivered to the Corporation, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date. 
 (iii) Conversion Price. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible at any time at the holder’s sole discretion into that number of shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Series B Purchase
Price by the then existing Conversion Price (as set forth below and as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Certificate of Designation) (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price initially shall equal $0.32 per
share and shall be subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to the provisions hereof. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Subscription Agreements), the Conversion Price shall be reduced to eighty-five percent
(85%) of the otherwise applicable Conversion Price. 
 (iv) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation
shall at any time, or from time to time after the Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the
Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any
adjustment under this paragraph (f)(iv) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. 
  

 -5- 

 (v) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Corporation at any time,
or from time to time after the Original Issue Date, shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then
and in each such event the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion
Price then in effect by a fraction: 
 (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and 
 (B) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment
of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be
recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph (f)(v) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. 
 (vi) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue
Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such
event provision shall be made so that the holders of such Series B Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Corporation that they
would have received had their Series B Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities
receivable by them as aforesaid during such period giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph (f) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (vii) Adjustments to Conversion Price for Certain Diluting Issues. 
 (A) Special Definitions. For purposes of this paragraph (f)(vii), the following definitions apply: 
 (i) “Options” shall mean rights, options, or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire either Common Stock
or Convertible Securities (defined below). 
  

 -6- 

 (ii) “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness,
shares (other than Common Stock and Series B Preferred Stock) or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock. 
 (iii) “Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued (or, pursuant to paragraph (f)(vii)(C), deemed to be issued) by the Corporation after the Original Issue Date; provided, that
“Additional Shares of Common Stock” shall not mean or include any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable: 
 1.
upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock; 
 2. to officers, directors or employees of, or consultants to, the
Corporation pursuant to stock option or stock purchase plans or agreements on terms approved by the Board of Directors, but not exceeding, at any one time, more than five (5%) percent of the fully-diluted shares of Common Stock then issued and
outstanding (net of any repurchases of such shares), subject to adjustment for all subdivisions and combinations; 
 3. in
connection with any acquisition, joint venture or similar combination, as full or partial consideration for the assets, securities or properties of any other person, firm or corporation, whether by purchase, exchange, merger, consolidation or like
combination; 
 4. as a dividend or distribution on Series B Preferred Stock; or 
 5. for which adjustment of the Conversion Price is made pursuant to paragraphs (f)(iv)–(vi). 
 (B) No Adjustment of Conversion Price. Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Conversion Price
shall be made in respect of the issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock unless the consideration per share (determined pursuant to paragraph (f)(vii)(E) hereof) for an Additional Share of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued by the
Corporation is less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of, and immediately prior to such issue. 
 (C) Deemed
Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders
of any class of securities then entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained therein designed to protect
against dilution) of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such 

  

 -7- 

 
Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be
Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, provided further that in any such case in which Additional Shares of Common
Stock are deemed to be issued: 
 (i) no further adjustments in the Conversion Price shall be made upon the subsequent issue
of Convertible Securities or shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities; 
 (ii) if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase in the consideration payable to the Corporation, or decrease in the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon,
shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such Options or the rights of conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities (provided, however, that no
such adjustment of the Conversion Price shall effect Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock); 
 (iii) Upon the expiration of any such Options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange, or the expiration of any rights related to such Convertible Securities, the Conversion Price to the
extent in any way affected by or computed using such Options or Convertible Securities (unless such Options or Convertible Securities were merely deemed to be included in the numerator and denominator for purposes of determining the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding for purposes of paragraph (f)(vii)(D)), shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and Convertible Securities that remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such
Options or rights related to such Convertible Securities. 
 (iv) no readjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or
(iii) above shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (a) the Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (b) the Conversion Price that would have resulted from any
issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date. 
 (D)
Adjustment of Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to
paragraph (f)(vii)(C)) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such 

  

 -8- 

 
issue, then and in such event, the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which shall be (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which the
aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and (b) the denominator of which shall
be (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue plus (ii) the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued. For the purpose of the above calculation, the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be calculated on a fully diluted basis, as if all shares of Series B Preferred Stock and all Convertible Securities had been fully converted into shares of Common Stock and any outstanding
warrants, options or other rights for the purchase of shares of stock or convertible securities had been fully exercised (and the resulting securities fully converted into shares of Common Stock, if so convertible) as of such date. 
 (E) Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this paragraph (f)(vii), the consideration received by the Corporation for the
issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows: 
 (i) Cash and Property: Such
consideration shall: 
 1. insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the
Corporation excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest or accrued dividends; 
 2. insofar as it consists of
property other than cash, be computed at the fair value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors; and 
 3. in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so
received, computed as provided in clauses (1) and (2) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. 
 (ii) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to paragraph (f)(vii), relating to Options and Convertible
Securities shall be determined by dividing 
 1. the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as
consideration for the issue 

  

 -9- 

 
of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto,
without regard to any provision contained therein designed to protect against dilution) payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for
Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities by 
 2. the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein designed to protect against the dilution) issuable upon the exercise
of such Options or conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. 
 (viii) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or
Substitution. If the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification
or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this paragraph (f)), then and in each such event the holder
of each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change, by
holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 (ix) Reorganization, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a capital
reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this paragraph (f)) or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation, or the
sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties and assets to any other person, then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock
shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or
sale, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions
of this paragraph (f) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this paragraph (f) (including adjustment of the
Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. 
  

 -10- 

 (x) Certificate of Adjustment. In each case of an adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion
Price or the securities issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance herewith and the Corporation’s Chief Financial Officer shall prepare and sign a
certificate showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall mail such certificate by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of the Series B Preferred Stock at the holder’s address as shown in the Corporation’s
books. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. 
 (xi) Notices of Record Date. In the event of (A) any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class or series of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution or (B) any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Corporation, any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or any transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Corporation to any other corporation, entity or person, or any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock at least 10 days
prior to the record date specified therein, a notice specifying (1) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution and a description of such dividend or distribution, (2) the date on which
any such reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective and (3) the time, if any is to be fixed, as to when the holders of record of Common Stock (or
other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up. 
 (xii) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred
Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay the holder of the fractional share an amount equal to the fraction times the fair value of Common Stock. 
 (xiii) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, 5,500,000 shares of Common Stock, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose. 
 (xiv) Notices. Any notice required by the
provisions of this paragraph (f) to be given to the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed given (A) if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, or (B) if given by any other reliable or generally
accepted means (including by facsimile or by a nationally recognized overnight courier service), in each case addressed to each holder of record at his address (or facsimile number) appearing on the books of the Corporation. 
  

 -11- 

 (xv) Payment of Taxes. The Corporation will pay all transfer taxes and other governmental charges
that may be imposed in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (xvi) No Dilution or Impairment. The Corporation shall not amend its Certificate of Incorporation or participate in any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, for the purpose of avoiding or seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, without the approval of a majority of the then outstanding Series B
Preferred Stock. 
 (g) No Re-issuance of Preferred Stock. Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation by
reason of purchase, conversion or otherwise shall be canceled, retired and eliminated from the shares of Series B Preferred Stock that the Corporation shall be authorized to issue. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation or in any Certificate of Determination creating a
series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law. 
 (h) Severability. If any right, preference or
limitation of the Series B Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule, law or public policy, all other rights, preferences and limitations set forth herein that can be given effect
without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable right, preference or limitation shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect, and no right, preference or limitation herein shall be deemed dependent upon any other such right, preference or
limitation unless so expressed herein.

“Agreement”) is dated as of July 14, 2006, among [            ], and MultiCell Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”). 
 WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Holders have purchased from the Company, for aggregate
consideration of $[                    ],
[                    ] shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Stock”), and
have the right to cause such Series B Stock to be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the conversion formula set forth in the Certificate of Designation
of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on or about July 14, 2006 (the “Certificate of Designation”); 
 WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Holders have acquired warrants (the “Warrants”) from the Company, pursuant to which the
Holders have the right to purchase in the aggregate up to [                    ] shares of Common Stock; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Holders the registration rights set forth herein with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the conversion of the Series B Stock and the exercise of the Warrants. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto
mutually agree as follows: 
 1. Registrable Securities. As used herein the terms “Registrable Security”
means each of the shares of Common Stock issued (i) upon the conversion of the Series B Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and (ii) upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”),
provided, however, that with respect to any particular Registrable Security, such security shall cease to be a Registrable Security as of the date of determination that (a) it has been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”), and disposed of pursuant thereto, or (b) registration under the Securities Act is no longer required for the immediate public distribution of such security. The term
“Registrable Securities” means any and/or all of the securities falling within the foregoing definition of a “Registrable Security.” In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or
other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be made in the definition of “Registrable Security” as is appropriate in order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to
this Section 1. 
 2. Registration. 
 (a) Within 45 days after the date hereof, the Company shall prepare or file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) in order to register the resale of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective no later than ninety
(90) days after the filing. Once effective, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earliest of the following dates (the “Expiration
Date”) (i) the date that all of the Registrable Securities have been sold, or (ii) the date that the Company 

  

 -1- 

 
receives an opinion of counsel to the Company that all of the Registrable Securities may be freely traded without registration under the Securities Act,
under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or otherwise. 
 (b) The Company will initially include in the Registration
Statement as Registrable Securities (i) five million five hundred thousand (5,500,000) shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Stock and (ii) the maximum numbers of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Warrants. 
 3. Covenants of the Company with Respect to Registration. 
 The Company covenants and agrees as follows: 
 (a) If any stop order shall be issued by the SEC in connection therewith, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain promptly the removal of such order. Following the effective date of the Registration Statement, the
Company shall, upon the request of any Holder, forthwith supply such reasonable number of copies of the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus and prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act, and any other documents necessary
or incidental to the public offering of the Registrable Securities, as shall be reasonably requested by any Holder to permit such Holder to make a public distribution of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. The obligations of the Company
hereunder with respect to any Holder’s Registrable Securities are subject to such Holder’s furnishing to the Company such appropriate information concerning such Holder, such Holder’s Registrable Securities and the terms of such
Holder’s offering of such Registrable Securities as the Company may reasonably request in writing. 
 (b) The Company shall pay all
costs, fees and expenses in connection with the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 hereof including, without limitation, the Company’s legal and accounting fees, printing expenses, and blue sky fees and expenses; provided,
however, that each Holder shall be solely responsible for the fees of any counsel retained by such Holder in connection with such registration and any transfer taxes or underwriting discounts, commissions or fees applicable to the Registrable
Securities sold by such Holder pursuant thereto. 
 (c) The Company will take all actions which may be required to qualify or register the
Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement for the offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as are reasonably requested by each Holder of such securities, provided that the Company shall not be obligated
to execute or file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any such jurisdiction. 
 4. Additional Terms. 
 (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holders and each
underwriter, within the meaning of the Securities Act, who may purchase from or sell for any Holder, any Registrable Securities, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, any other registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act with 

  

 -2- 

 
respect to the registration of the Registrable Securities, any post-effective amendment to such registration statements, or any prospectus included therein
or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue
statement or omission based upon information furnished or required to be furnished in writing to the Company by the Holders or underwriter expressly for use therein, which indemnification shall include each person, if any, who controls any Holder or
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and each officer, director, employee and agent of each Holder and underwriter; provided, however, that the indemnification in this Section 4(a) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure
to the benefit of any Holder or underwriter (or to the benefit of any person controlling any Holder or underwriter) on account of any such loss, claim, damage or liability arising from the sale of Registrable Securities by such Holder or
underwriter, if a copy of a subsequent prospectus correcting the untrue statement or omission in such earlier prospectus was provided to such Holder or underwriter by the Company prior to the subject sale and the subsequent prospectus was not
delivered or sent by such Holder or underwriter to the purchaser prior to such sale and provided further, that the Company shall not be obligated to so indemnify any Holder or any such underwriter or other person referred to above unless such Holder
or underwriter or other person, as the case may be, shall at the same time indemnify the Company, its directors, each officer signing the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any registration statement or any prospectus required to be filed or furnished by
reason of this Agreement or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any
untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or underwriter expressly for use therein. 
 (b) The Holders shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Company, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, any registration statement or any prospectus required to be filed or furnished by reason of this Agreement or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any material untrue statement or material omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holders expressly for use therein.

 (c) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding section is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid
or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. 
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4 of notice of the commencement of any action
(including any governmental action), such indemnified party 

  

 -3- 

 
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 4, deliver to the indemnifying party a written
notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties;
provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying
party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this Section 4 only to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced as a result thereof.

 (e) Neither the filing of a Registration Statement by the Company pursuant to this Agreement nor the making of any request for
prospectuses by any Holder shall impose upon any Holder any obligation to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities. 
 (f) Each Holder,
upon receipt of notice from the Company that an event has occurred which requires a post-effective Amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the prospectus included therein, shall promptly discontinue the sale of Registrable
Securities until such Holder receives (or is deemed to have received under applicable securities laws) a copy of a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company, which the Company shall provide as soon as practicable after such notice.

 (g) If the Company fails to keep the Registration Statement referred to above continuously effective during the requisite period, then the
Company shall, promptly upon the request of any Holder, update the Registration Statement or file a new registration statement covering the Registrable Securities remaining unsold, subject to the terms and provisions hereof, so that the registration
of such unsold Registered Securities is maintained for a number of days beyond the Expiration Date equal to the number of days that such Holder is unable to sell pursuant to Section 4(f) above. 
 (h) Each Holder agrees to provide the Company with any information or undertakings reasonably requested by the Company in order for the Company to
include any appropriate information concerning such Holder in the Registration Statement or in order to promote compliance by the Company or such Holder with the Securities Act. 
 (i) Each Holder, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in
connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder. 
 (j) Each Holder, on behalf of itself, its affiliates,
its successors and assigns and any other direct or indirect transferee holding any of the Warrants, the Series B Stock or the Registrable Securities, hereby covenants and agrees not to, directly or indirectly, enter into or execute any “short
sale” (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO, or any successor regulation, promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act) of the Company’s Common Stock; provided, however, that any Holder may enter into or execute any sale

  

 -4- 

 
(including without limitation sales “against the box”) of the Common Stock of the Company to the extent such Holder owns any securities of the
Company which are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into at least the number Conversion Shares and/or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) which are subject to such sale and, in the case of Series B Stock, has tendered such shares for
conversion into Conversion Shares or, in the case of a Warrant, has exercised the right to acquire such Warrant Shares. 
 (k) If requested
in writing by the Company and the managing underwriter of an underwritten registered public offering by the Company of its Common Stock, the Holders shall agree not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock of the Company held by
such Holders (other than those included in the registration statement) for a period not to exceed 90 days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, provided that all officers and
directors of the Company enter into similar agreements identical in terms to that of the Holders. 
 5. Governing Law. The
Registrable Securities will be, if and when issued, delivered in California. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been made and delivered in the State of California and shall be governed as to validity, interpretation, construction, effect and in

 6. Amendment. This Agreement may only be amended by a written instrument executed by the Company and the Holders.
