Financing, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a written notice of its
intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice
shall ask the Investor if it wants to review the details of such financing (such
additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of the
Investor, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no
later than 1 business day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing
Notice to the Investor. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in
reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of
proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or
with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include
a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.
(c) If the Investor desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing the
Investor must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m.
(New York City time) on the 5th business day after all investors have received
the Pre-Notice that the Investor is willing to participate in the Subsequent
Financing, the amount of the Investor’s participation, and that the Investor has
such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth
in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no notice from the
Investor as of such 5th business day, the investor shall be deemed to have
notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.
(d) Following 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the 5th business day after
all of investors have received the Pre-Notice, the Company shall have the right
to close the Subsequent Financing upon terms no more favorable than as set forth
in Subsequent Financing Notice.
(e) The foregoing right to participate shall not apply to subsequent
closings with respect to the offering contemplated by this Agreement effected
prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, issuances of equity or equity
linked securities under equity incentive plans, issuances of warrants to
consultants or other service providers in exchange for bona fide services or in
connection with any merger, acquisition or strategic transaction.”
