Restrictions on Sales of Control of the Company No Stockholder shall be a party to any Stock Sale unless all holders of Preferred Stock are allowed to participate in such transaction and the consideration received pursuant to such transaction is allocated among the parties thereto in the manner specified in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation in effect immediately prior to the Stock Sale (as if such transaction were a Deemed Liquidation Event), unless the holders of at least a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock elect otherwise by written notice given to the Company at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any such transaction or series of related transactions.
Sale or Transfer of Assets; Suspension of Business Operations The Borrower will not sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of (i) the stock of any Subsidiary, (ii) all or a substantial part of its assets, or (iii) any Collateral or any interest therein (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions) to any other Person other than the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of business and will not liquidate, dissolve or suspend business operations. The Borrower will not transfer any part of its ownership interest in any Intellectual Property Rights and will not permit any agreement under which it has licensed Licensed Intellectual Property to lapse, except that the Borrower may transfer such rights or permit such agreements to lapse if it shall have reasonably determined that the applicable Intellectual Property Rights are no longer useful in its business.

Certain Business Combinations In the event it is determined by the Board, upon receipt of a written opinion of the Company's independent public accountants, that the enforcement of any Section or subsection of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Section 6(b) hereof, which allows for the acceleration of vesting of options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock upon a termination in connection with a Change of Control, would preclude accounting for any proposed business combination of the Company involving a Change of Control as a pooling of interests, and the Board otherwise desires to approve such a proposed business transaction which requires as a condition to the closing of such transaction that it be accounted for as a pooling of interests, then any such Section of this Agreement shall be null and void, but only if the absence of enforcement of such Section would preserve the pooling treatment. For purposes of this Section 9, the Board's determination shall require the unanimous approval of the disinterested Board members.
