Each Option Holder acknowledges and agrees that if an Option Holder exercises the Option Holder’s warrants or options to purchase equity interests in PFMG II before PFMS exercises the Option, then (a) PFMS’s Option shall automatically include the right and option to purchase the equity interests in PFMG II issued to the Option Holder without any further agreement between the parties to this Agreement or amendment of this Agreement, and (b) all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to the Members shall apply to the Option Holder who was issued equity interests in PFMG II. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or applicable law to the contrary, as long as the Investors own any Series A Preferred Units or Common Units of PFMS, this Agreement may only be terminated with the prior written consent of the Investors.
