Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 24, 2009, to obtain funding for working capital and advancement of its science, Advaxis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2009 (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), with Optimus Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, d/b/a Optimus Life Sciences Capital Partners, LLC (the “ Investor ”), which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Investor is committed to purchase up to $5,000,000 of the Company’s newly authorized, non-convertible, redeemable Series A Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “ Series A Preferred Stock ”), at a price of $10,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, from time to time until September 24, 2012, in the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may present the Investor with a notice to purchase a specified amount of Series A Preferred Stock (the “ Notice ”), which the Investor is obligated to purchase on the 10 th trading day after the Notice date, subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions. The Company will determine, in its sole discretion, the timing and amount of Series A Preferred Stock to be purchased by the Investor, and may sell such shares in multiple tranches (each, a “ Tranche ”). The Investor will not be obligated to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock subject to a Notice (i) in the event the closing price of the Company’s common stock during the nine trading days following delivery of a Notice falls below 75% of the closing price on the trading day prior to the date such Notice is delivered to the Investor, or (ii) to the extent such purchase would result in the Investor and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable at the Company’s option on or after the fifth anniversary of the date of its issuance. The Series A Preferred Stock also has a liquidation preference per share equal to the original price per share thereof plus all accrued dividends thereon, and is subject to repurchase by the Company at the Investor’s election under certain circumstances, or following the consummation of certain fundamental transactions by the Company, at the option of a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends, which will accrue in shares of Series A Preferred Stock on an annual basis at a rate equal to 10% per annum from the issuance date. Accrued dividends will be payable upon redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation:

senior to the Company’s common stock and any other class or series of preferred stock of the Company (other than a class or series of preferred stock that the Company intends to cause to be listed for trading or quoted on Nasdaq, NYSE Amex or the New York Stock Exchange); and

junior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and any class or series of preferred stock that the Company intends to cause to be listed for trading or quoted on Nasdaq, NYSE Amex or the New York Stock Exchange.

The Purchase Agreement provides that the Company will pay to the Investor a non-refundable fee of up to $250,000, $125,000 of which shall be paid in cash or in stock on or before October 28, 2009, and $125,000 of which shall be paid on the closing date of the first Tranche (by offset from the gross proceeds of such Tranche).

In addition, at the time of execution of the Purchase Agreement on September 24, 2009 (the “ Commitment Closing ”), the Company issued to the Investor a three-year warrant to purchase up to 33,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “ Warrant ”), at an initial exercise price of $0.20 per share, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrant. The Warrant will become exercisable on the earlier of (i) the date on which a registration statement registering for resale the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “ Warrant Shares ”) becomes effective and (ii) the first date on which such Warrant Shares are eligible for resale without limitation under Rule 144 (assuming a cashless exercise of the Warrant). The exercise price of the Warrant may be paid (at the option of the Investor) in cash or by the Investor’s issuance of a four-year, full-recourse promissory note, bearing interest at 2% per annum, and secured by specified portfolio of assets owned by the Investor. The Warrant also provides for cashless exercise if at any time a registration statement is not effective (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale of the Warrant Shares. If a “Funding Default” (as such term is defined in the Warrant) occurs and the Warrant has not previously been exercised in full, the Company has the right to demand surrender of the Warrant (or any remaining portion thereof) without compensation, and the Warrant shall automatically be cancelled.

The Company’s right to deliver a Notice to the Investor and the obligation of the Investor to accept a Notice and to acquire and pay for the Series A Preferred Stock subject to such Notice at a Tranche closing are subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of certain conditions, which include, among others:

the Company’s common stock must be listed for trading or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (or another eligible trading market), and the Company must be in compliance with all requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in order to maintain such listing;

either (i) the Company has a current, valid and effective registration statement covering the resale of all Warrant Shares or (ii) all Warrant Shares are eligible for resale without limitation under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrant);

there must not be any material adverse effect with respect to the Company since the Commitment Closing, other than losses incurred in the ordinary course of business;

the Company must not be in default under any material agreement;

certain lock-up agreements with senior officers and directors of the Company and certain beneficial owners of 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock must be effective;

there must not be any legal restraint prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement; and

the aggregate of all shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the Investor and its affiliates must not exceed 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement and the exhibits thereto (including, without limitation, the form of Warrant), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, and the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock dated September 24, 2009, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement with respect to the Warrant Shares, the securities described above have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent such registration or an applicable exemption therefrom.

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of the date prior to the filing date of the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “ Evaluation Date ”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could materially affect the Company’s internal controls.

The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act.

(v) Registration Rights . No Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Act of any securities of the Company.

(w) Listing and Maintenance Requirements . The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is the SEC contemplating terminating such registration. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the Effective Date, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.

(x) Application of Takeover Protections . The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti takeover provision under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to Investor as a result of Investor and the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation the Company’s issuance of the Securities and Investor’s ownership of the Securities.

(y) Disclosure . Except with respect to (i) the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (ii) the information contained in the Disclosure Schedules and (iii) the information that will be publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(i)E and Section 5.4 , the Company confirms that neither the Company nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes material, non-public information that, according to applicable law, rule or regulation, should have been disclosed publicly by the Company prior to the Effective Date but which has not been so publicly disclosed. The Company understands and confirms that Investor will rely on the foregoing representations and covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure provided to Investor regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, furnished by or on behalf of the Company with respect to the representations and warranties made herein are true and correct in all material respects and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(z) No Integrated Offering . Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Act.

(aa) Financial Condition . Based on the financial condition of the Company as of the date of the Commitment Closing: (i) the fair saleable market value of the Company’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances, which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the date of the Commitment Closing. The Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for its fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2009 sets forth as of July 31, 2009 all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company, or for which the Company has commitments. The Company is not in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

(bb) Tax Status . The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or filed all federal, state and foreign income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and only to the extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith and has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim. The Company has not executed a waiver with respect to the statute of limitations relating to the assessment or collection of any foreign, federal, statue or local tax. None of the Company’s tax returns is presently being audited by any taxing authority.

(cc) No General Solicitation or Advertising . Except for the Registration Statement to be filed as contemplated by this Agreement, neither the Company nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any of its directors or officers (i) has conducted or will conduct any general solicitation (as that term is used in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to the sale of the Securities, or (ii) made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that would require registration of the Securities under the Act or made any “directed selling efforts” as defined in rule 902 of Regulation S.

(dd) Foreign Corrupt Practices . Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any corrupt funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that Investor is acting solely in the capacity of arm’s length purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges that Investor is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any statement made by Investor or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental to Investor’s purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to Investor that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company and its representatives.

As long as Investor owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to Investor and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for Investor to sell the Securities under Rule 144 until such time as Investor may sell all such Securities without restriction under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell Securities without registration under the Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.

5.3 Integration . The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Act of the sale of the Securities to Investor.

5.4 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity .

Such press release and Current Report on Form 8-K shall be reasonably acceptable to Investor. The Company and Investor shall consult with each other in issuing any additional press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor Investor shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any such press release of Investor, or without the prior consent of Investor, with respect to any such press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, Trading Market regulations or judicial process, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. The Company shall provide Investor with prior notice of any public disclosure of the name of Investor in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or Trading Market (it being hereby acknowledged and agreed by Investor that Investor’s name shall be disclosed in any Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company describing the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, in any Registration Statement and Prospectus covering any Warrant Shares, and in other reports of the Company required to be filed by the Company under the Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof).

5.5 Shareholders Rights Plan . No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other Person that Investor is an “Acquiring Person” under any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that Investor could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and Investor. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act of 1040, as amended.

5.6 Non-Public Information . The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf will provide, Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto Investor shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that Investor shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

5.7 Reimbursement . If Investor becomes involved in any capacity in any proceeding by or against any Person who is a stockholder of the Company (except as a result of sales, pledges, margin sales and similar transactions by Investor to or with any current stockholder), solely as a result of Investor’s acquisition of the Securities under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse Investor for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred, or will assume the defense of Investor in such matter. The reimbursement obligations of the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any Affiliates of Investor who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as the case may be, of Investor and any such Affiliate, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company, Investor and any such Affiliate and any such Person.

5.8 Indemnification .

(a) Indemnification by Company . Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.8(a), the Company will indemnify and hold Investor and any Warrant holder, their Affiliates and attorneys, and each of their directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, and any Person who controls Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “ Investor Parties ” and each an “ Investor Party ”), harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation (collectively, “ Losses ”) that any Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (b) any action instituted against any Investor Party, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of an Investor Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of Investor’s representation, warranties or covenants or agreements under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings Investor may have with any such stockholder or any violations by Investor of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by Investor which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance), (c) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement (or in a Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Company) or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and/or (d) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Prospectus ( or any amendments or supplements to any Prospectus ), or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Investor Party for any Losses finally adjudicated to have been caused solely by an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact made in reliance upon and conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Person expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) and (ii) the foregoing indemnity shall not inure to the benefit of any Investor Party from whom the Person asserting any Losses purchased Securities, if a copy of the Prospectus (as then supplemented) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Investor Party to such Person, if required by law to have been delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, and if delivery of the Prospectus (as then supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such Losses. The parties intend that any Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 5.8(a) will be net of insurance proceeds (which Investor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover or cause any Investor Party to recover). Accordingly, the amount which the Company is required to pay any Investor Party under this Section 5.8(a) will be reduced by any insurance proceeds actually recovered by or on behalf of any Investor Party in reduction of the related Losses. In addition, if an Investor Party receives indemnification from the Company under this Section 5.8(a) in respect of any Losses and subsequently receives any such insurance proceeds, then Investor will pay, or will cause such other Investor Party to pay, to the Company an amount equal to the indemnification payment received under this Section 5.8(a) less the amount of the indemnification payment that would have been due if the insurance proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before such indemnification payment was made. However, no provision herein regarding insurance proceeds shall delay payment by the Company to any Investor Party for any indemnified Losses.

(b) Indemnification by Investor . Subject to the provisions of this Section 5.8(b), Investor will indemnify and hold the Company, its Affiliates and attorneys, and each of the Company’s directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, and any Person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “ Company Parties ” and each an “ Company Party ”), harmless from any and all Losses that any Company Party has been finally adjudicated to have suffered or incurred solely as a result of (a) any unexcused material breach of any material representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Investor in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, (b) any conduct by Investor which constitutes fraud, willful misconduct or malfeasance, (c) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement (or in a Registration Statement as amended by any post-effective amendment thereof by the Company) based upon any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case, to the extent the untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Investor Party expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) and/or (d) any untrue statement of a material fact included in any Prospectus (or any amendments or supplements to any Prospectus ), or based upon any omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, to the extent the untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Investor Party expressly for use in the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto). The parties intend that any Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 5.8(b) will be net of insurance proceeds (which the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover or cause any Company Party to recover). Accordingly, the amount which Investor is required to pay any Company Party under this Section 5.8(b) will be reduced by any insurance proceeds actually recovered by or on behalf of any Company Party in reduction of the related Losses. In addition, if a Company Party receives indemnification from Investor under this Section 5.8(b) in respect of any Losses and subsequently receives any such insurance proceeds, then the Company will pay, or will cause such other Company Party to pay, to Investor an amount equal to the indemnification payment received under this Section 5.8(b) less the amount of the indemnification payment that would have been due if the insurance proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before such indemnification payment was made. However, no provision herein regarding insurance proceeds shall delay payment by Investor to any Company Party for any indemnified Losses.

(c) Procedure for Indemnification Claims . Promptly after a Person receives notice of a claim or the commencement of an action for which the Person intends to seek indemnification under this Section 5.8, the Person will notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or commencement of the action, suit or proceeding; provided , however , that failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under this Section 5.8, except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to give notice. The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding as to which indemnification is being sought, and if the indemnifying party is the Company, the indemnifying party may (but will not be required to) assume the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel satisfactory to it. Subject to the immediately following sentence, if the Company notifies an indemnified party that it wishes to assume the defense of a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the Company will not be liable for any legal or other expenses incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party, except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel, or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict with respect to the dispute in question on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of the indemnified party such that it would be inappropriate for one counsel to represent both parties. No indemnifying party will be liable to any indemnified party under this Agreement for any settlement by such indemnified party of any action effected by such indemnified party without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

5.9 Reservation of Securities . The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.

5.10 Limited Standstill . The Company will use reasonable efforts to deliver to Investor on or before the first Tranche Closing Date, and will thereafter honor and enforce the provisions of, the Lock-Up Agreements with the Company’s executive officers, directors and beneficial owners of 10% or more of the Common Stock.

5.11 Issuance of Additional Securities . The Company shall not issue additional Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock to any Person (other than Investor, an Affiliate of Investor, or in connection with an incentive compensation plan), if such issuance would reduce the number of remaining authorized shares of Common Stock that could be issued by the Company below the number of remaining authorized shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, without previously amending its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of duly authorized shares of Common Stock by at least the amount necessary to assume a sufficient number of shares to permit the exercise in full of the Warrant. However, nothing in this Section 5.11 shall diminish the obligation of the Company to issue the Securities to the Investor in accordance with this Agreement and the Warrant.

5.12 Prospectus Availability and Changes . The Company will make available to Investor upon request, and thereafter from time to time will furnish Investor, as many copies of any Prospectus (or of the Prospectus as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have made any amendments or supplements thereto after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement) as Investor may request for the purposes contemplated by the Act; and in case Investor is required to deliver a prospectus after the nine-month period referred to in Section 10(a)(3) of the Act in connection with the sale of the Warrant Shares, or after the time a post-effective amendment to the applicable Registration Statement is required pursuant to Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K under the Act, the Company will prepare, at its expense, promptly upon request such amendment or amendments to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as may be necessary to permit compliance with the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or Item 512(a) of Regulation S-K under the Act, as the case may be.

The Company will advise Investor promptly of the happening of any event within the time during which a Prospectus is required to be delivered by Investor under the Act which, in the good faith judgment of the Company, following consultation with its independent legal counsel, would require the making of any change in the Prospectus then being used so that the Prospectus would not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, and to advise Investor promptly if, during such period, in the good faith judgment of the Company, following consultation with its independent legal counsel, it shall become necessary to amend or supplement any Prospectus to cause such Prospectus to comply with the requirements of the Act, and in each case, during such time, to prepare and furnish, at the Company’s expense, to Investor promptly such amendments or supplements to such Prospectus as may be necessary to reflect any such change or to effect such compliance. The Company shall not be required to disclose to the Investor the substance or specific reasons of any of the events referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, but rather, shall only be required to disclose that the event has occurred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company need not advise the Investor regarding any supplement to the Prospectus the purpose of which is to update the Prospectus and the Registration Statement to include information the Company has previously filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) or 14(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

5.13 Activity Restrictions . For so long as Investor or any of its Affiliates holds any Securities, neither Investor nor any Affiliate will: (i) vote any shares of Common Stock owned or controlled by it, solicit any proxies, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to any voting securities of the Company; (ii) engage or participate in any actions, plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (a) acquiring additional securities of the Company, alone or together with any other Person, which would result in beneficially owning or controlling more than 9.99% of the total outstanding Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the Company is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any Person, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, or (j) any action, intention, plan or arrangement similar to any of those enumerated above; or (iii) request the Company or its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives to amend or waive any provision of this Section 5.13 .

Warrant No.: 2009-1	Issuance Date: September 24, 2009

Number of Warrant Shares: 33,750,000	Initial Exercise Price: $0.20

Advaxis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Company ”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Optimus CG II, LLC, the holder hereof, or its designees or assigns (“ Holder ”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “ Warrant ”), at any time or times during the Exercise Period (as defined below), that number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock set forth above (the “ Warrant Shares ”).

ARTICLE 1

EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

1.1 Mechanics of Exercise . Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day during the Exercise Period, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice to the Company, in the form attached hereto as Appendix 1 (the “ Exercise Notice ”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “ Aggregate Exercise Price ”) in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds, by the issuance and delivery of a recourse promissory note substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix 2 (each, a “ Recourse Note ”), or, if applicable, by cashless exercise pursuant to Section 1.3. The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On the same Trading Day on which the Company has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (the “ Exercise Delivery Documents ”) by 10:30 a.m. Eastern time, or the following Trading Day if received after such time or on a non-Trading Day, the Company shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “ Transfer Agent ”) and (i) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (DTC) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (FAST) Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system, or (ii) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC FAST Program, issue and deliver to the Holder or, at the Holder’s instruction pursuant to the Exercise Notice, the Holder’s agent or designee, in each case, sent by reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the applicable Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee (as indicated in the applicable Exercise Notice), for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise, which certificate shall not be imprinted with any restrictive legends and no stop transfer order shall be placed against the transfer thereof. Upon delivery of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificate(s) evidencing the Warrant Shares (as the case may be). If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1.1 and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three Trading Days after any exercise and return of the previously issued Warrant, at its own expense issue a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.

1.2 Exercise Price .

(a) For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.20, subject to adjustment as provided in paragraph (b) below and subject to adjustment as provided in Article II hereof.

(b) Immediately following each Tranche Closing, the Exercise Price applicable to a number of Warrant Shares equal to the product of (i) the total number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant on the day of the applicable Tranche Closing multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (1) the aggregate Tranche Purchase Price paid by the Holder to the Company on the day of the applicable Tranche Closing divided by (2) the Maximum Placement shall be automatically adjusted to equal the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Tranche Notice Date, and such adjusted Exercise Price and such number of Warrant Shares to which it applies shall be set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto (subject to adjustment as provided in Article II hereof after the initial issuance date hereof). Once the Exercise Price applicable to a Warrant Share is adjusted pursuant to the foregoing, no further adjustment to the Exercise Price applicable to such Warrant Share shall be made pursuant to this paragraph.

1.3 Cashless Exercise . Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Section 1.5 below), if at any time a registration statement is not effective (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “ Unavailable Warrant Shares ”), the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a “ Cashless Exercise ”):

Net Number = (B-C) x A

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

B = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock (as reported by Bloomberg) for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

1.4 Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities . If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to timely issue to the Holder or its designee a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (as the case may be), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day that the issuance of such Warrant Shares is not timely effected an amount equal to 1.5% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Warrant Shares not issued to the Holder on a timely basis and to which the Holder is entitled and (B) the Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have issued such Warrant Shares to the Holder without violating Section 1.1. In addition to the foregoing, if after the Company’s receipt of the applicable Exercise Delivery Documents the Company shall fail to timely issue to the Holder or its designee a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be), and the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “ Buy-In ”), then the Company shall, within three Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “ Buy-In Price ”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and to issue such Warrant Shares shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder or its designee a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or credit such Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock sold by Holder in satisfaction of its obligations, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the date of exercise.

1.5 Exercise Limitation . Notwithstanding any other provision, at no time may the Holder exercise this Warrant such that the number of Warrant Shares to be received pursuant to such exercise aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then owned by the Holder beneficially or deemed beneficially owned by the Holder would result in the Holder owning more than 4.99% of all of such Common Stock as would be outstanding on such Exercise Date, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, as of any date, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is exercisable within 61 days, together with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned (as such term is defined in Rule 13(d) under the Exchange Act) by Holder and its affiliates, shall not exceed 9.99% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock as of such date. At no time when the number of Warrant Shares then owned by the Holder, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then owned by the Holder beneficially or deemed beneficially owned by the Holder, would result in the Holder owning more than 1.0% of all outstanding Common Stock will Holder vote or cause to be voted any such shares.

1.6 Restrictions . For so long as Holder holds this Warrant or any Warrant Shares, Holder will not: (i) vote any shares of Common Stock owned or controlled by it, solicit any proxies, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to any voting securities of the Company; (ii) engage or participate in any actions, plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (a) acquiring additional securities of the Company, alone or together with any other Person, which would result in beneficially owning or controlling more than 9.99% of the total outstanding Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, including but not limited to, if the Company is a registered closed-end investment company, any plans or proposals to make any changes in its investment policy for which a vote is required by Section 13 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any Person, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, or (j) any action, intention, plan or arrangement similar to any of those enumerated above; or (iii) request the Company or its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives to amend or waive any provision of this Section 1.6 .

1.7 Disputes . In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 12.

1.8 Insufficient Authorized Shares . If at any time while this Warrant (or any portion thereof) remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 110% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise in full of any unexercised portion of this Warrant (the “ Required Reserve Amount ”) (an “ Authorized Share Failure ”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the unexercised portion of the Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than 90 days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal.

ARTICLE 2

ADJUSTMENT UPON SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF COMMON STOCK.

If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this ARTICLE 2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

ARTICLE 3

PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS

3.1 Purchase Rights . In addition to any adjustments pursuant to ARTICLE 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “ Purchase Rights ”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

3.2 Fundamental Transactions . The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Warrants in exchange for such Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, an adjusted exercise price equal to the value for the shares of Common Stock reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and satisfactory to the Required Holders. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “ Company ” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Required Holders confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Required Holders would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “ Corporate Event ”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Required Holders will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Required Holders would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders. The provisions of this Section 3.2 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant.

3.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction other than one in which the Successor Entity is a Public Successor Entity that assumes this Warrant such that this Warrant shall be exercisable for the publicly traded common stock of such Public Successor Entity, at the request of the Holder delivered before the 90th day after such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or the Successor Entity) shall purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder, within five (5) Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), cash in an amount equal to the value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such consummation, which value shall be determined by use of the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model using a volatility equal to the 100 day average historical price volatility prior to the date of the public announcement of such Fundamental Transaction.

ARTICLE 4

NONCIRCUMVENTION

The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, 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, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as the Warrant is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrant, 110% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the unexercised portion of the Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

ARTICLE 5

WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this ARTICLE 5, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

FORM OF NOTE

SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

$[_____________]

Date: [________], 20[__]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, [_____________] (“ Borrower ”) promises to pay to the order of Advaxis, Inc. (“ Lender ”), at [________], or at such other place as Lender may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of $[________], with interest, as follows:

1. Interest . The principal balance outstanding, from time to time, shall bear interest from and after the date hereof at the rate of 2.0% per year. Interest shall be calculated on a simple interest basis and the number of days elapsed during the period for which interest is being calculated. Interest not paid when due shall be added to the principal.

2. Payments . If not sooner paid, the entire unpaid principal balance, interest thereon and any other charges due and payable under this Note shall be due and payable on the fourth anniversary of the date of this Note (“ Maturity Date ”); provided, however, that in no event shall this Note be due or payable at any time that (a) Lender is in default of any preferred stock purchase agreement for Series A Preferred Stock or any Warrant issued pursuant thereto, any loan agreement or other material agreement, or (b) there are any shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Lender issued or outstanding. Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the principal balance of this Note at any time without penalty or premium. In the event that Lender redeems all or a portion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by Borrower, Borrower shall apply, and Lender may offset, the proceeds of any such redemption to pay down the accrued interest and outstanding principal of this Note. All payments shall be first be applied to interest, then to reduce the outstanding principal.

3. Full Recourse Note . THIS IS A FULL RECOURSE PROMISSORY NOTE. Accordingly, notwithstanding that Borrower’s obligations under this Note are secured by the Collateral, in the event of a material default hereunder, Lender shall have full recourse to all the other assets of Borrower. Moreover, Lender shall not be required to proceed against or exhaust any Collateral, or to pursue any Collateral in any particular order, before Lender pursues any other remedies against Borrower or against any of Borrower’s assets.

4. Security

a. Pledge . As security for the due and prompt payment and performance of all payment obligations under this Note and any modifications, replacements and extensions hereof (collectively, “ Secured Obligations ”), Borrower hereby pledges and grants a security interest to Lender in all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in and to all of the following, now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (together the “ Collateral ”):

i. Publicly traded shares of common stock, preferred stock, bonds, notes and/or debentures (collectively, “ Pledged Securities ”) with a fair market value on the date hereof at least equal to the principal amount of this Note, based upon the trading price of such securities on the Pink Sheets, OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ Capital Market, NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Global Select Market, NYSE Amex, or New York Stock Exchange;

ii. all rights of Borrower with respect to or arising out of the Pledged Securities, including voting rights, and all equity and debt securities and other property distributed or distributable with respect thereto as a result of merger, consolidation, dissolution, reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, exchange, redemption, or other change in capital structure; and

iii. all proceeds, replacements, substitutions, accessions and increases in any of the Collateral.

b. Replacement Securities . So long as any Secured Obligations remain outstanding, in the event that Borrower sells or disposes of any Pledged Securities, Borrower shall promptly provide replacement securities of equal or greater value.

c. Rights With Respect to Distributions . So long as no default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Note, Borrower shall be entitled to receive any and all dividends and distributions made with respect to the Pledged Securities and any other Collateral. However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any default, Lender shall have the sole right (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) to receive and retain dividends and distributions and apply them to the outstanding balance of this Note or hold them as Collateral, at Lender’s election.

d. Voting Rights . So long as no default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Note, Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all voting rights pertaining to the Pledged Securities and any other Collateral. However, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any default, all rights of Borrower to exercise the voting rights that Borrower would otherwise be entitled to exercise with respect to the Collateral shall cease and (unless otherwise agreed by Lender) all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Lender, which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights.

e. Financing Statement; Further Assurances . Borrower agrees, concurrently with executing this Note, that Lender may file a UCC-1 financing statement relating to the Collateral in favor of Lender, and any similar financing statements in any jurisdiction in which Lender reasonably determines such filing to be necessary. Borrower further agrees that at any time and from time to time Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents that Lender may request in order to perfect and protect the security interest granted hereby, or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies with respect to any Collateral, including, following an event of default, delivering the Collateral to Lender to hold as secured party.

f. Powers of Lender . Borrower hereby appoints Lender as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, which power is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Secured Obligations are paid and performed in full, and may be exercised from time to time by Lender in its discretion: To take any action and to execute any instrument which Lender may deem reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4(f) and, more broadly, this Note including, without limitation: (i) to exercise voting and consent rights with respect to Collateral in accordance with this Note, (ii) during the continuance of any default hereunder, to receive, endorse and collect all instruments or other forms of payment made payable to Borrower in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same, (iii) to perform or cause the performance of any obligation of Borrower hereunder in Borrower’s name or otherwise, (iv) during the continuance of any default hereunder, to liquidate any Collateral pledged to Lender hereunder and to apply proceeds thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations or to place such proceeds into a cash collateral account or to transfer the Collateral into the name of Lender, all at Lender’s sole discretion, (v) to enter into any extension, reorganization or other agreement relating to or affecting the Collateral, and, in connection therewith, to deposit or surrender control of the Collateral, (vi) to accept other property in exchange for the Collateral, (vii) to make any compromise or settlement Lender deems desirable or proper, and (viii) to execute on Borrower’s behalf and in Borrower’s name any documents required in order to give Lender a continuing first lien upon the Collateral or any part thereof.

5. Additional Terms

a. No Waiver . The acceptance by Lender of payment of a portion of any installment when due or an entire installment but after it is due shall neither cure nor excuse the default caused by the failure of Borrower timely to pay the whole of such installment and shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to require full payment when due of any future or succeeding installments.

b. Default . Any one or more of the following shall constitute a “ default ” under this Note: (i) a default in the payment when due of any amount hereunder, (ii) Borrower’s refusal to perform any material term, provision or covenant under this Note, (iii) the commencement of any liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other debtor-relief proceeding by or against Borrower, or subject to Section 4(b), the Collateral is transferred by Borrower without being replaced by Pledged Securities of equal or greater fair market value on the date of transfer, and (iv) the levying of any attachment, execution or other process against Borrower, or subject to Section 4(b) the Collateral or any material portion thereof.

c. Default Rights

i. Upon the occurrence of any payment default Lender may, at its election, declare the entire balance of principal and interest under this Note immediately due and payable. A delay by Lender in exercising any right of acceleration after a default shall not constitute a waiver of the default or the right of acceleration or any other right or remedy for such default. The failure by Lender to exercise any right of acceleration as a result of a default shall not constitute a waiver of the right of acceleration or any other right or remedy with respect to any other default, whenever occurring.

ii. Further, upon the occurrence of any material non-monetary default, following 30 days notice from Lender to Borrower specifying the default and demanded manner of cure for any non-monetary default, Lender shall thereupon and thereafter have any and all of the rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled after a default under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code, as then in effect. In addition to its other rights and remedies, Borrower agrees that, upon the occurrence of default, Lender may in its sole discretion do or cause to be done any one or more of the following:

d. Proceed to realize upon the Collateral or any portion thereof as provided by law, and without liability for any diminution in price which may have occurred, sell the Collateral or any part thereof, in such manner, whether at any public or private sale, and whether in one lot as an entirety, or in separate portions, and for such price and other terms and conditions as is commercially reasonable given the nature of the Collateral.

e. If notice to Borrower is required, give written notice to Borrower at least ten days before the date of sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof.

f. Transfer all or any part of the Collateral into Lender’s name or in the name of its nominee or nominees.

g. Vote all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of Lender) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto, as though Lender were the outright owner thereof.

i. Borrower acknowledges that all or part of foreclosure of the Collateral may be restricted by state or federal securities laws, Lender may be unable to effect a public sale of all or part of the Collateral, that a public sale is or may be impractical and inappropriate and that, in the event of such restrictions, Lender thus may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to its distribution or resale. Borrower agrees that if reasonably necessary Lender may resort to one or more sales to a single purchaser or a restricted or limited group of purchasers. Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition, unless the terms thereof shall be satisfactory to it.

ii. If, in the opinion of Lender based upon written advice of counsel, any consent, approval or authorization of any federal, state or other governmental agency or authority should be necessary to effectuate any sale or other disposition of any Collateral, Borrower shall execute all such applications and other instruments as may reasonably be required in connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization, and will otherwise use its commercially reasonable best efforts to secure the same.

iii. The rights, privileges, powers and remedies of Lender shall be cumulative, and no single or partial exercise of any of them shall preclude the further or other exercise of any of them. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Lender of any default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing. Any proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the foregoing, and the balance of such proceeds shall be applied by Lender toward the payment of the Secured Obligations.

h. No Oral Waivers or Modifications . No provision of this Note may be waived or modified orally, but only in a writing signed by Lender and Borrower.

i. Attorney Fees . The prevailing party in any action by Lender to collect any amounts due under this Note shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys fees and costs.

j. Governing Law . This Note has been executed and delivered in, and is to be construed, enforced, and governed according to the internal laws of, the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflict of laws.

k. Severability . Whenever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. However, if any provision of this Note shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of that provision or the other provisions of this Note.

l. Entire Agreement . This Note contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.

FUNDING NEWS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ADVAXIS SECURES $5.0 MILLION INVESTMENT

North Brunswick, N.J. – September 24, 2009 – Advaxis, Inc. (OTCBB: ADXS) , has entered into a definitive agreement for a $5 million investment commitment (the “Investment”) with an investment fund (the “Investor”).

“This financing, combined with our current debt offering, will allow us to move from preparation to patient recruitment for our two, Company-sponsored Phase II clinical trials in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and invasive cervical cancer,” commented Advaxis Chairman & CEO Thomas A. Moore.

About the Investment

Subject to certain conditions of the Investment, Advaxis may draw down funds from the Investor from time to time in our sole discretion, in one or more tranches, until September 24, 2012 through the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $10,000 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock will not be convertible into common stock and may be redeemed by the Company after five years. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are payable in additional shares of non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock at the rate of 10% per annum.

The Company has agreed to pay the Investor a fee of $250,000 of which $125,000 will be paid by October 28, 2009 and $125,000 will be paid on the closing date of the first draw-down by offset from the gross proceeds of such draw down.

Advaxis has also issued a three-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to the Investor to purchase up to 33,750,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.20 per share. The Warrant will become exercisable when a registration statement covering the resale of the underlying warrant shares is declared effective by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or such shares may be sold without restriction under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), as amended, whichever occurs first.

Our ability to draw down funds under the Investment is subject to certain conditions, including the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the warrant shares or the eligibility of such shares to be resold without restriction under Rule 144, the continued listing of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or another eligible trading market, the absence of a material adverse effect on the Company or any default under any material agreements, and the effectiveness of short-term, lock-up agreements from our officers, directors, affiliates, et al.

Except as provided in the definitive transaction documents, the securities described above have not been and will not be registered under the Act, as amended, or any state securities or “blue sky” laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent such registration or an applicable exemption therefrom. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

About the Company

Based in North Brunswick, New Jersey, Advaxis is developing proprietary Listeria monocytogenes ( Lm ) cancer vaccines based on technology developed by Dr. Yvonne Paterson, professor of microbiology at the University of Pennsylvania and chairperson of Advaxis’ scientific advisory board. Advaxis is developing attenuated live Lm vaccines that deliver engineered tumor antigens, which stimulate multiple simultaneous immunological mechanisms to fight cancer.

In a recent Advaxis Phase I clinical trial, a live Lm vaccine directed against the tumor-associated antigen HPV-16-E7 was safely administered to fifteen (15) women with advanced metastatic cancer of the cervix. Although this first trial of an Lm vaccine in humans was not designed or powered to prove efficacy, Advaxis believes an efficacy signal was observed that will be further explored in two (2) planned Phase II trials in the US and India in cervical cancer and its predecessor condition, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Advaxis now has nine (9) distinct cancer fighting constructs in various stages of development, both directly and with academic collaborators.
