WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES OF

Q BIOMED INC.

(organized under the laws of Nevada)

 

This is to certify that for value received and in exchange for business development services that Q BioMed Inc. (the " Corporation ") has received from William S. Rosenstadt (the " Holder "), the Holder shall have the right to purchase from the Corporation, at any time and from time to time up to from November [--], 2017 until 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on June [---], 2022 (the " Expiry Time "), one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share (as hereinafter defined) for each Warrant (individually, a " Warrant ") represented hereby at a price of US$[---] per share (the " Exercise Price "), upon and subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

1.              For the purpose of this Warrant, the term " Common Shares " means common shares in the capital of the Corporation as constituted on the date hereof; provided that in the event of a change, subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation thereof or any other adjustment under clause 7 hereof, or such successive changes, subdivisions, re-divisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations or other adjustments, then subject to the adjustments, if any, having been made in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, " Common Shares " shall thereafter mean the shares, other securities or other property resulting from such change, subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation or other adjustment.

 

2.              All rights under any of the Warrants in respect of which the right of subscription and purchase therein not exercised shall wholly cease and determine and such Warrants shall be wholly void and of no valid or binding effect after the Expiry Time. If B (as defined in 3(3) below) is greater than the Exercise Price immediately prior to the Expiry Time, the Holder shall be deemed to have exercised any remaining portion of this Warrant immediately prior to the Expiry Date in full pursuant to the cashless exercise provision in 3(3), provided that the Holder has not notified the Company in writing prior to the Expiry Time that it is not taking advantage of this provision.

 

 

 

Page 2

 

3.              The right to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the Warrants may only be exercised by the Holder before the Expiry Time by:

 

(1) duly completing and executing a subscription substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in the manner therein indicated; and

 

(2) surrendering this Warrant Certificate and the duly completed and executed subscription form to the Corporation at the principal office of the Corporation in the City of New York, together with payment of the purchase price for the Common Shares subscribed for in the form of a wire transfer or a certified check payable to the Corporation in an amount equal to the then applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Common Shares subscribed for (“ Aggregate Exercise Price ”); or

 

(3) subject to Section 7(c) herein, in the event the Holder desires to exercise the Warrant through the cashless mechanism as set forth herein it shall, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Corporation 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 = (A x B) - (A x C)  
  B  
  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 closing bid price of the Common Shares for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice (“Average Bid Price”).

 

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

 

4.              Upon such delivery and payment as aforesaid, the Corporation shall cause to be issued to the Holder the number of Common Shares to be issued and the Holder shall become a shareholder of the Corporation in respect of such Common Shares with effect from the date of such delivery and payment and shall be entitled to delivery of a certificate or certificates evidencing such Common Shares. The Corporation shall cause such certificate or certificates to be mailed to the Holder at the address or addresses specified in such subscription form within five (5) business days of such delivery and payment as herein provided.

 

5.              The holding of a Warrant shall not constitute the Holder a shareholder of the Corporation nor entitle him to any right or interest in respect thereof except as herein expressly provided.

 

 

 

Page 3

 

6.              The Corporation covenants and agrees that until the Expiry Time, while any of the Warrants shall be outstanding, it shall reserve and there shall remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Common Shares to satisfy the right of purchase herein provided, as such right of purchase may be adjusted pursuant to clauses 7 and 8 hereof. All Common Shares which shall be issued upon the exercise of the right to purchase herein provided for, upon payment therefor of the amount at which such Common Shares may at the time be purchased pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable shares and the holders thereof shall not be liable to the Corporation or its creditors in respect thereof.

 

7. (a) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time the Corporation shall (i) subdivide, re-divide or change its then outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares, (ii) reduce, combine or consolidate its then outstanding Common Shares into a lesser number of Common Shares, or (iii) issue Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) to the holders of all or substantially all of its then outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or other distribution (any of such events herein called a " Common Share Reorganization "), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted effective immediately after the effective date of any such event in (i) or (ii) above or the record date at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of any such dividend or distribution in (iii) above, as the case may be, by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date, as the case may be, before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would be outstanding if such securities were exchanged for or converted into Common Shares.

 

(b) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time, the Corporation shall distribute any class of shares or rights, options or warrants or other securities (other than those referred to in 7(a) above), evidences of indebtedness or property (excluding cash dividends paid in the ordinary course) to holders of all or substantially all of its then outstanding Common Shares, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the number of the Common Shares in respect of which the right to purchase is then being exercised, the aggregate number of Common Shares or other securities or property that the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such event, as if, on the record date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Holder was theretofore entitled upon the exercise of the rights of the Holder hereunder.

 

(c) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time there is a capital reorganization of the Corporation or a reclassification or other change in the Common Shares (other than a Common Share Reorganization) or a consolidation or merger or amalgamation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, merger or amalgamation which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other securities), or a transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation's undertaking and assets to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a " Capital Reorganization "), the Holder, conditioned that he has not exercised the right of subscription and purchase under this Warrant Certificate prior to the effective date of such Capital Reorganization, shall be entitled to receive and shall accept, upon the exercise of such right, on such date or any time thereafter, for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which he was theretofore entitled to subscribe for and purchase less the aggregate Exercise Price per Warrant, the aggregate number of shares or other securities or property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization as if, on the effective date thereof, he had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which he was theretofore entitled to subscribe for and purchase.

 

 

 

Page 4

 

8.              On the occurrence of each and every such event set out in clause 7, the applicable provisions of this Warrant, including the Exercise Price, shall, ipso facto, be deemed to be amended accordingly and the Corporation shall take all necessary action so as to comply with such provisions as so amended.

 

9.              The Corporation shall not be required to deliver certificates for Common Shares while the share transfer books of the Corporation are properly closed, having regard to the provisions of clause 7 hereof, prior to any meeting of shareholders or for the payment of dividends or for any other purpose and in the event of the surrender of any Warrant in accordance with the provisions hereof and the making of any subscription and payment for the Common Shares called for thereby during any such period delivery of certificates for Common Shares may be postponed for not more than five (5) days after the date of the re-opening of said share transfer books. Provided, however, that any such postponement of delivery of certificates shall be without prejudice to the right of the Holder so surrendering the same and making payment during such period to receive after the share transfer books shall have been re-opened such certificates for the Common Shares called for, as the same may be adjusted pursuant to clause 8 hereof as a result of the completion of the event in respect of which the transfer books were closed.

 

10.            Subject as hereinafter provided, all or any of the rights conferred upon the Holder by the terms hereof may be enforced by the Holder by appropriate legal proceedings. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained herein shall be had against any shareholder, director or officer of the Corporation either directly or through the Corporation, it being expressly agreed and declared that the obligations under the Warrants are solely corporate obligations and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by the shareholders, directors or officers of the Corporation or any of them in respect thereof, any and all rights and claims against every such shareholder, officer or director being hereby expressly waived as a condition of and as a consideration for the issue of the Warrants.

 

11.            The Holder may subscribe for and purchase any lesser number of Common Shares than the number of shares expressed in this Warrant Certificate. In the case of any subscription for a lesser number of Common Shares than expressed in this Warrant Certificate, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive at no cost to the Holder a new Warrant Certificate in respect of the balance of Warrant not then exercised. Such new Warrant Certificate shall be mailed to the Holder by the Corporation, contemporaneously with the mailing of the certificate or certificates representing the Common Shares issued pursuant to clause 4.

12.            If this Warrant Certificate becomes stolen, lost, mutilated or destroyed, the Corporation shall, on such terms as it may in its discretion acting reasonably impose, issue and sign and direct the Corporation's transfer agent to countersign a new Warrant Certificate of like denomination, tenor and date as the Warrant Certificate so stolen, lost, mutilated or destroyed for delivery to the Holder.

 

13.            The Corporation shall keep at its principal office (or its transfer agent in the City of New York): (a) a register of holders in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the holders of the Warrants and of the number of Warrants held by them; and (b) a register of transfers in which shall be entered the date and other particulars of each transfer of Warrants. The registers hereinbefore referred to shall be open at all reasonable times for inspection by any Holder.

 

14.            Subject to compliance by the Holder with any applicable resale restrictions and any other applicable laws and regulatory requirements, the Corporation acknowledges and agrees that the Warrants evidenced hereby may be assigned or transferred by the Holder at the Holder's option. It is the sole responsibility of the Holder to ensure that all such restrictions, laws and regulatory requirements have been observed. Upon any assignment or transfer, the Holder shall furnish the Corporation with this Warrant Certificate and an Assignment Form in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto and such other documents and information regarding the transferee as the Corporation may reasonably require to register these Warrants in the name of the transferee and, upon satisfaction of such requirements, the Corporation shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate in the name of the transferee named in such Warrant Transfer Form for the number of unexercised Warrants and this certificate shall be promptly cancelled.

 

15.            The transferee of a Warrant Certificate shall, after the transfer form attached to the Warrant Certificate or any other form of transfer acceptable to the Corporation, acting reasonably, is duly completed and the Warrant Certificate is lodged with the Corporation and upon compliance with all other conditions in that regard required by this Warrant, by the New York Stock Exchange or by law, be entitled to have his name entered on the register of holders as the owner of the Warrants represented thereby free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Corporation and the transferor or any previous holder of such Warrant, save in respect of equities of which the Corporation or the transferee is required to take notice by statute or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

16.            Warrant Certificates may, upon compliance with the reasonable requirements of the Corporation, be exchanged for Warrant Certificates in any other denomination representing in the aggregate the same number of Warrants. The Corporation shall sign, all Warrant Certificates necessary to carry out the exchanges contemplated herein, provided that:

 

(1) Warrant Certificates may be exchanged only at the principal office of the Corporation in the City of New York; any Warrant Certificates tendered for exchange shall be surrendered to the Corporation and cancelled; and

Exhibit 99.1

 

Q BIOMED INC ANNOUNCES COMMERCIALIZATION OF NON-NARCOTIC METASTATIC CANCER PAIN DRUG  June 7, 2017  News

 

 

COMPANY EXPECTS REVENUE FROM BONE PAIN DRUG AHEAD OF SCHEDULE

 

 

 

NEW YORK, June 7, 2017 — Q BioMed Inc. (OTCQB: QBIO), is very pleased to announce that the company has initiated production of Strontium-89 Chloride, a radiopharmaceutical indicated for the analgesic treatment of metastatic breast and prostate cancer bone pain.

 

Denis Corin, CEO of the Company said, “This is a major milestone in our short history. We are very excited to bring this product to market less than one year after finalizing the licensing agreement. There is an acute demand for an affordable and effective alternative to opiate based drugs in this patient population. We know this proven drug is effective and well tolerated with limited side-effects. We look forward to making it available as widely as possible and as quickly as possible. We believe there is significant opportunity to build this franchise and expand the revenue opportunity associated with it.”

 

Approximately 70% of patients with advanced breast and prostate cancer metastases will develop bone metastases, an extremely painful condition. Bone metastases occur in most tumor types but are most prevalent in cancers of the breast, prostate, and lung. These bone lesions can cause serious skeletal complications, including spinal cord or nerve root compression, hypercalcemia of malignancy, pathologic fractures, and severe bone pain which can significantly compromise quality of life and may negatively affect survival. Palliation of pain, prevention of skeletal complications, and maintenance of quality of life are the primary objectives in managing patients with metastatic bone disease.

 

AB-Rated Strontium Chloride Sr89 Injection USP (Sr89) can be used in combination with or to reduce the need for opiate based drugs, as well as in combination with cancer therapeutic drugs. After administration, pain relief can occur in as little as one to two weeks and can last several months, when another dose can be administered with minimal side effects. Clinical studies have demonstrated that for many, the combination of alternating weekly chemohormonal therapies with Sr89 demonstrated a prolonged and progression-free survival.

 

We expect to provide more information regarding initial commercialization in the coming weeks.

About Strontium-89 Chloride

Following intravenous injection, soluble strontium compounds behave like their calcium analogs, clearing rapidly from the blood and selectively localizing in bone mineral. Uptake of strontium by bone occurs preferentially in sites of active osteogenesis; thus primary bone tumors and areas of metastatic involvement (blastic lesions) can accumulate significantly greater concentrations of strontium than surrounding normal bone. Strontium-89 Chloride is retained in metastatic bone lesions much longer than in normal bone, where turnover is about 14 days. In patients with extensive skeletal metastases, well over half of the injected dose is retained in the bones. Excretion pathways are two-thirds urinary and one-third fecal in patients with bone metastases. Urinary excretion is higher in people without bone lesions. Urinary excretion is greatest in the first two days following injection. Strontium-89 is a pure beta emitter and Strontium-89 Chloride selectively irradiates sites of primary and metastatic bone involvement with minimal irradiation of soft tissues distant from the bone lesions. (The maximum range in tissue is 8 mm; maximum energy is 1.463 MeV.) Clinical trials have examined relief of pain in cancer patients who have received therapy for bone metastases (external radiation to indexed sites) but in whom persistent pain recurred.

 

 

 

 

INDICATIONS AND USAGE: Strontium-89 Chloride Injection is indicated for the relief of bone pain in patients with painful skeletal metastases. The presence of bone metastases should be confirmed prior to therapy.

 

CONTRAINDICATIONS:  None known.

 

WARNINGS: Use of Strontium-89 Chloride (Sr89) in patients with evidence of seriously compromised bone marrow from previous therapy or disease infiltration is not recommended unless the potential benefit of the treatment outweighs its risks. Bone marrow toxicity is to be expected following the administration of Strontium-89 Chloride, particularly white blood cells and platelets. The extent of toxicity is variable. It is recommended that the patient’s peripheral blood cell counts be monitored at least once every other week. Typically, platelets will be depressed by about 30% compared to preadministration levels. The nadir of platelet depression in most patients is found between 12 and 16 weeks following administration of Sr89. White blood cells are usually depressed to a varying extent compared to pre-administration levels. Thereafter, recovery occurs slowly, typically reaching pre-administration levels six months after treatment unless the patient’s disease or additional therapy intervenes. In considering repeat administration of Sr89, the patient’s hematologic response to the initial dose, current platelet level and other evidence of marrow depletion should be carefully evaluated. Verification of dose and patient identification is necessary prior to administration because Strontium-89 Chloride delivers a relatively high dose of radioactivity. Strontium-89 Chloride may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. If this drug is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while receiving this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. Women of childbearing potential should be advised to avoid becoming pregnant.
