SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
ADVAXIS,

This
prospectus supplement amends the prospectus dated November 6, 2009, as amended
by Prospectus Supplement No. 1 dated December 15, 2009, to allow the
selling stockholders named in the prospectus (the “Selling Stockholders”) to
resell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of 88,951,533 shares of our
common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants held by the Selling
Stockholders. Such
number of shares includes 8,280,283 shares of common stock issuable as a result
of antidilution provisions in certain warrants pursuant to Rule 416 of the
Securities Act.
We will
not receive any proceeds from any such sale of these shares. To the extent any
of the warrants are exercised for cash, if at all, we will receive the exercise
price for those warrants. This
prospectus supplement is being filed to include the information set forth in our
Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 11, 2010, which is set forth below.
This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the prospectus
dated November 6, 2009, as amended, which is to be delivered with this
prospectus supplement.
Our
common stock is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, or OTC Bulletin
Board, under the symbol ADXS.OB. On January 8, 2010, the last
reported sale price per share for our common stock as reported by the OTC
Bulletin Board was $0.14.
Investing
in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. We urge you to
carefully consider the ‘‘Risk Factors’’ beginning on page 9 of the
prospectus.
Neither
the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has
approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or
accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal

Item
3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
On
January 11, 2010, the Company issued and sold 145.0 shares of non-convertible,
redeemable Series A preferred stock to Optimus Life Sciences Capital Partners
LLC (“Optimus”)
pursuant to the terms of a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement between the
Company and Optimus dated September 24, 2009 (the “Purchase
Agreement”). The aggregate purchase price for the Series A
preferred stock was $1.45 million (less $130,000 representing an administrative
fee and the balance of a commitment fee due and owing to Optimus under the
Purchase Agreement). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
Optimus remains obligated, from time to time until September 24, 2012, to
purchase up to an additional 355.0 shares of Series A preferred stock at a
purchase price of $10,000 per share upon notice from the Company to Optimus, and
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.
In
connection with the foregoing transaction, an affiliate of Optimus exercised
warrants to purchase 11,563,000 shares of common stock at an adjusted exercise
price of $0.17 per share. The Company and Optimus agreed to waive
certain terms and conditions in the Purchase Agreement and the warrant in order
to permit the affiliate of Optimus to exercise the warrants at such adjusted
exercise price prior to the closing of the purchase of the Preferred Stock and
acquire beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company’s common stock on
the date of exercise. As permitted by the terms of such warrants, the
aggregate exercise price of $1,965,710 received by the Company is payable
pursuant to a 4 year full recourse promissory note bearing interest at the rate
of 2% per year.
As a
result of anti-dilution protection provisions contained in certain of the
Company’s outstanding warrants, the Company has (i) reduced the exercise price
from $0.20 per share to $0.17 per share with respect to an aggregate of
approximately 62.0 million warrant shares to purchase the Company’s Common Stock
and (ii) correspondingly adjusted the amount of warrant shares issuable pursuant
to certain warrants such that approximately 11.0 million additional warrant
shares are issuable at $0.17 per share.
Item
5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Principal Officer.
(b) Fredrick
D. Cobb resigned as the Company’s Principal Financial Officer and Assistant
Secretary.
(c) Effective
as of January 5, 2010, Mark Rosenblum, 56, was hired as Senior Vice
President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the
Company. Since April 2005 Mr. Rosenblum was the Chief Financial
Officer of Hemobiotech, Inc. (OTC BB: HMBT.OB), a company primarily engaged in
the commercialization of human blood substitute technology licensed from Texas
Tech University. From 2003 until 2005, he acted as a consultant to various
distribution and manufacturing companies. From 1985
through 2003, Mr. Rosenblum was employed by Wellman, Inc., a public
chemical manufacturing company and held positions as its Corporate
Controller, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer.
Mr.
Rosenblum’s base compensation is $225,000 per annum, with a discretionary bonus
of up to 30% of his base compensation awarded annually in March beginning in
2011. In addition, on January 5, 2010 Mr. Rosenblum was granted
options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock with an
exercise price equal to the closing bid price on the date of
grant. One third of these options vested on the date of grant, one
third vests on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and one third vests
on the second anniversary of the date of grant. Mr. Rosenblum may be
eligible for additional option grants in one year.
