Subsequent Equity Sales. From the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds more than 5% of the Securities, the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Financing involving a “Variable Rate Transaction” or an “MFN Transaction” (each as defined below) that could potentially value the stock price at a price lower than $1.00 per share.

The term “MFN Transaction” shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells any securities in a capital raising transaction or series of related transactions which grants to an investor the right to receive additional shares based upon future transactions of the Company on terms more favorable than those granted to such investor in such offering. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.18 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction or MFN Transaction shall be an Exempt Issuance.
