Conversion. |
|
|
(a) |
Right to Convert. |
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5, the Payee shall have the right, at its option, at any time and from time to time, upon or following the consummation of any Subsequent Round of Financing (as defined below), to convert all or any portion of the principal amount of this Note (the “Principal Obligations”) into a number of fully paid and nonassessable Subsequent Round Securities (with the most favorable terms received by any investor in such Subsequent Round of Financing) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the aggregate amount of Principal Obligations to be converted by the lowest price per Subsequent Round Security paid by any investor in such Subsequent Round of Financing. Written notice of a Subsequent Round of Financing stating the date on which such Subsequent Round of Financing is expected to become effective and describing the terms and conditions of such Subsequent Round of Financing shall be delivered by the Company to, and received by, the Payee not less than 10 days prior to the consummation of such Subsequent Round of Financing.

(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5, the Payee shall have the right, at its option, at any time and from time to time, to convert all or any portion of the Principal Obligations into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the aggregate amount of Principal Obligations to be converted by $3.65.
(b) Procedure for Conversion. In order to convert all or any portion of the Principal Obligations, the Payee shall (i) surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the office of the Payor and (ii) simultaneously with such surrender, notify the Payor in writing of its election to convert all or a portion of the Principal Obligations, which notice shall specify the amount of Principal Obligations to be so converted, and whether such conversion is for Common Stock or Subsequent Round Securities. The date on which the Note is surrendered for conversion is referred to herein as the “Conversion Date.” As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Payee shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates, registered in such name or names as the Payee may direct, representing the Conversion Securities issuable upon conversion of the applicable Principal Obligations, along with a new promissory note, in the same form as this Note, reflecting any Principal Obligations that have not been so converted and any obligations in respect of accrued and unpaid interest on converted Principal Obligations; provided that the Payee shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Conversion Securities as of the Conversion Date. The issuance of Conversion Securities upon conversion of any Principal Obligations shall be made without charge to the Payee for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Payor shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Payee.
(c) Reservation of Shares. Payor shall reserve and keep available solely for issuance upon the conversion of Principal Obligations such number of shares of Conversion Securities as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the conversion of all outstanding Principal Obligations, and, if applicable, shall take all action to increase the authorized number of Conversion Securities if at any time there shall be insufficient authorized but unissued Conversion Securities to permit such reservation or permit the conversion of all outstanding Principal Obligations. The Payor covenants that all Conversion Securities that shall be so issued shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Payor, not subject to any preemptive rights, and free from any taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Payor will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all such Conversion Securities may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or any requirement of any national securities exchange or quotation system upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
(d) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Note, the following terms shall have the following meanings (with terms defined in the singular having comparable meanings when used in the plural and vice versa):
