Certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend: (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act; (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144; or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after any of the events described in (i)-(iii) in the preceding sentence if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder (with a copy to the Holder and its broker). If all or any portion of an Exchange Security is converted at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section, it will, no later than two Trading Days following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.

11.1 From the date hereof until the date that is the 12-month anniversary of the last Closing, upon any issuance by the Company of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or debt for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the Holder shall have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 100% of the Subsequent Financing on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.
11.2 At least four (4) Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask the Holder if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”).

If by such tenth (10th) Trading Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Holder, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Holder shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
