6.1 General. Each Major Purchaser has the right of first refusal to purchase such Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of all (or any part) of any New Securities (as defined in Section 6.2 below) that the Company may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement, provided, however, such Major Purchaser shall have no right to purchase any such New Securities if such Major Purchaser cannot demonstrate to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that such Major is at the time of the proposed issuance of such New Securities an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. A Major Purchaser’s “Pro Rata Share” for purposes of this right of first refusal is the ratio of (a) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Shares owned by such Major Purchaser, to (b) a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the sum of (1) the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then outstanding plus (2) the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company into which all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock of the Company are then convertible plus (3) the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company reserved for issuance under any stock purchase and stock option plans of the Company and outstanding warrants. For the purposes hereof, a “Major Purchaser” shall mean that a Purchaser holds Shares with an aggregate original purchase price of at least $250,000 (as adjusted for stock splits and the like).

6.2 New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean any Common Stock or Preferred Stock of the Company, whether now authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase such Common Stock or Preferred Stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible or exchangeable into such Common Stock or Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the term “New Securities” does not include: (a) capital stock issued pursuant to stock dividends, stock splits or similar transactions; (b) capital stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of convertible, exchangeable or exercisable securities outstanding as of the date hereof including, without limitation, warrants, notes, Safes or options; (c) capital stock issued as a dividend or distribution with respect to the Preferred Stock (or any series thereof); (d) Common Stock issued or issuable to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option plan or restricted stock plan approved by the Board; (e) Common Stock issued in an initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act; (f) capital stock, or warrants or options to purchase capital stock, issued in connection with bona fide acquisitions, mergers or similar transactions, provided that such issuances are approved by the Board; (g) capital stock, or options or warrants to purchase capital stock, issued to financial institutions, equipment lessors, brokers or similar persons in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings, commercial property lease transactions or similar transactions, that are approved by the Board; (h) capital stock issued or issuable to an entity as a component of any business relationship with such entity primarily for the purpose of (1) joint venture, technology licensing or development activities, (2) distribution, supply or manufacture of the Company’s products or services or (3) any other arrangements involving vendors, customers, or other corporate partners, the terms of which business relationship with such entity are approved by the Board; (i) Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Preferred Stock; (j) Common Stock issued or issuable with the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Shares, voting together as a class on an as-converted basis; or (k) any securities issued pursuant to this Agreement, or any capital stock issued or issuable upon conversion thereof.

6.3 Procedures. If the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give notice to each Major Purchaser of its intention to issue New Securities (the “Notice”), describing the type of New Securities and the price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the New Securities. Each Major Purchaser will have (10) days from the date of notice, to agree in writing to purchase such Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the general terms specified in the Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share).

6.4 Failure to Exercise. If the Major Purchasers fail to exercise in full the right of first refusal within the 10-day period, then the Company will have one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter to sell the New Securities with respect to which the Major Purchasers’ rights of first refusal hereunder were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s Notice to the Major Purchasers. If the Company has not issued and sold the New Securities within the 120-day period, then the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without again first offering those New Securities to the Major Purchasers pursuant to this Section 6.

7.15 Separability of Agreements. The Company’s agreement with each of the Purchasers is a separate agreement and the sale of the Shares to each of the Purchasers is a separate sale. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights of each Purchaser hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any of the other Purchasers. Any invalidity, illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the Agreement or any part thereof, by any Purchaser, whether arising by reason of the law of the respective Purchaser’s domicile or otherwise, shall in no way affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other Purchasers.

7.16 Termination. Unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (x) the rights, duties and obligations under Sections 4 and 6 will terminate immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (y) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement (excluding any then-existing obligations) will terminate upon the closing of a Deemed Liquidation Event as defined in the Company’s Restated Articles, as amended from time to time and (z) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Section 1, Section 4.1.2 and Section 7 will survive any termination of this Agreement.
