FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MEDICUS PHARMA LTD., an entity organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to the order of YA II PN, Ltd., or its registered assigns (the "Holder") the amount set out above as the principal amount (as reduced or increased pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption or otherwise, the "Principal") when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest ("Interest") on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate from the date set out above as the Debenture Issuance Date (the "Issuance Date") until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon the Maturity Date or acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). This Debenture (including all debentures issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this "Debenture") was originally issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of May 2, 2025, as it may be amended from time to time (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") between the Company and the Buyers listed on the Schedule of Buyers attached thereto. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section (14).
(1) GENERAL TERMS
(a) Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest, and any other amounts outstanding pursuant to the terms of this Debenture. The "Maturity Date" shall be February 2, 2026, as may be extended upon joint consent of the Holder and the Company.
(b) Interest Rate and Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal balance hereof at an annual rate equal to 8.00% ("Interest Rate"), which Interest Rate shall increase to an annual rate of 18.00% upon an Event of Default (for so long as such event remains uncured). Interest shall be calculated based on a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(c) Payment Dates. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
(2) PAYMENTS
(a) Monthly Payments. The Company shall make monthly payments beginning on the 60th day following the Issuance Date and continuing on the same day of each successive Calendar Month (a "Monthly Payment Date"). The monthly payments shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) (x) in respect of the first six monthly payments, $500,000 of Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures), or the outstanding Principal, if the Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures) is less than such amount or (y) in respect of the monthly payment due on the Maturity Date, $2,000,000 of Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures), or the outstanding Principal, if the Principal (in the aggregate among this Debenture and all Other Debentures) is less than such amount, plus (ii) the accrued and unpaid Interest hereunder as of each Monthly Payment Date (such aggregate monthly payment amount, the "Monthly Payment Amount"). If this Debenture and any Other Debentures are held by more than one holder, then the Monthly Payment Amount shall be allocated to each holder based on each holder's pro-rata portion of the total outstanding Principal amount outstanding on this Debenture and all Other Debentures. If this Debenture and all Other Debentures are held by one holder, then such holder shall decide the allocation of payments between this Debenture and all Other Debentures in its sole discretion. 100% of the proceeds from sales of Common Shares made during any Calendar Month pursuant to that certain Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 10, 2025, entered into by and between the Company and the Holder (the "SEPA"), shall be retained by the Holder and offset the Monthly Payment Amount for such Calendar Month. Once proceeds from sales of Common Shares made during a Calendar Month pursuant to the SEPA exceed the Monthly Payment Amount for such Calendar Month, the Holder shall retain 50% of the proceeds from sales of Common Shares made during such Calendar Month pursuant to the SEPA and apply such proceeds to future payments due hereunder, which amounts shall be applied first to amounts due on the Maturity Date and thereafter to prior due amounts in reverse chronological order of their due dates. All payments shall be applied first to any amounts due hereunder other than Principal and Interest, then to accrued and unpaid Interest, and finally to Principal.
(b) The Company at its option shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem ("Optional Redemption") in cash, at any time, a portion or all amounts outstanding under this Debenture at the Redemption Amount (as defined below) as described in this Section. The "Redemption Amount" shall be an amount equal to (a) the outstanding Principal balance being redeemed by the Company, plus (b) all accrued and unpaid Interest hereunder as of such redemption date.
(3) EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
(a) An "Event of Default", wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

The Company shall not file any counterclaim against the Holder in any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding brought by the Holder against the Company in a jurisdiction outside of the Governing Jurisdiction unless under the rules of the court in which the Holder brought such suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding the counterclaim is mandatory, and not permissive, and would be considered waived unless filed as a counterclaim in the suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding instituted by the Holder against the Company. The Company and the Holder agree that any forum outside the Governing Jurisdiction is an inconvenient forum and that any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding brought in any court outside the Governing Jurisdiction should be dismissed or transferred to a court located in the Governing Jurisdiction. Furthermore, the Company and the Holder irrevocably and unconditionally agree not to bring or commence any suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, arising out of or based upon this Debenture or any matter relating to this Debenture, or any other Transaction Document, or any contemplated transaction, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and agree that all claims in respect of any such suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State Court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court.

(iv) The Company and the Holder irrevocably consent to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, claim, action, litigation or proceeding by the e-mailing of copies thereof or mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail postage prepaid, to it at the e-mail address or physical address, as applicable, provided for notices in this Debenture, such service to become effective thirty (30) days after the date of e-mailing or mailing.

The failure of the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Debenture on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Debenture. Any waiver must be in writing.
(13) If any provision of this Debenture is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Debenture shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any Interest or other amount deemed Interest due hereunder shall violate applicable laws governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum permitted rate of interest.
