Mechanics of Conversion (1) Before any holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into Ordinary Shares such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor at the Office and shall give written notice to the Company of the election to convert the same (or any part thereof) and shall state therein the name or names of any nominee for such holder in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Ordinary Shares are to be issued. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter unless such notice states that conversion is to be effective on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled in which case conversion shall take effect on such other date or when such conditions have been fulfilled, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Shares, or subject to the transfer restrictions contained in these Articles to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Ordinary Shares to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Preferred Shares to be converted, or on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares as of such date. If the conversion is in connection with a QIPO, the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering Preferred Shares for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion of the Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Shares until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities. In the event that the certificate(s) representing the Preferred Shares to be converted as aforesaid are not delivered to the Company, then the Company shall not be obligated to issue any certificate(s) representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion, unless the holder of such Preferred Shares notifies the Company in writing that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates.
(2) A conversion of Preferred Shares pursuant to one of the events described in Article 9(a)(2) shall be deemed to have taken place automatically regardless of whether the certificates representing such shares have been tendered to the Company but from and after such conversion any such certificates not tendered to the Company shall be deemed to evidence solely the Ordinary Shares received upon such conversion and the right to receive a certificate for such Ordinary Shares.
Conversion of Company Capital Stock At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Company or the holder of any of the shares of Company Common Stock, Parent Stock or any capital stock of Merger Sub:
