The Series M warrants collectively entitle the holders to purchase up to 10,021,667 shares of CEL-SCI's common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. The Series M warrants expire on July 31, 2012. Laksya Ventures is the owner of 8,800,000 Series M Warrants. On August 3, 2010 CEL-SCI's Directors approved an amendment to the terms of the Series M warrants held by Laksya such that Laksya may purchase 6,000,000 shares of CEL-SCI's common stock (as reduced from 8,800,000 shares) at a price of $0.60 per share. In approving the amendment to Laksya's Series M warrants, CEL-SCI's Directors determined that reducing the number of CEL-SCI's outstanding warrants would be beneficial. CEL-SCI will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a prospectus supplement to its shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 registering the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Series M warrants. CEL-SCI will not pay any commissions with respect to the sale of any securities offered by the prospectus supplement.
