The initial Conversion Price per Preferred Share shall be the Original Issue Price for such share; provided, however, that the Conversion Price for the Preferred Shares shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Article 18.3 (the “Conversion Price”).

 

18.3.2.Automatic Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Preferred Shares shall automatically be converted into fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares by dividing the applicable Original Issue Price by the Conversion Price at the time in effect for: (i) immediately prior to the closing of an offering by the Company of its securities to the public in a bona fide underwriting pursuant to a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, or similar securities law of another jurisdiction, with gross offering proceeds to the Company of not less than US$15,000,000 (Fifteen Million U.S. Dollars), which yields an imputed pre-money company valuation of at least US$75,000,000 (Seventy Five Million U.S. Dollars) on a fully diluted basis on the NASDAQ National Market, the New-York Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange, the AIM or the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Toronto Stock Exchange, the Moscow Stock exchange or the Ireland Stock Exchange (the “Qualified IPO”); or (ii) upon written demand of the Investor Majority.

 

18.3.3.Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into Ordinary Shares the holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates thereof at the Company’s office and shall give written notice by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Company of the election to convert the same. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such holder of Preferred Shares a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the Preferred Shares to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Ordinary Shares as of such date. In the case of automatic conversion pursuant to Article 18.3.2, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the occurrence of any of the events listed in Article 18.3.2, and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Ordinary Shares as of such date.

 

11
 

 

 

If the conversion is in connection with a Qualified IPO, the conversion, unless otherwise designated by the holder, will be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of securities.The Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Shares until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities.

 

18.3.4.Conversion Price Adjustments of Preferred Shares for Certain Splits, and Combinations. If the Company shall subdivide or combine its Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, in case of subdivision of shares, or shall be proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares.

 

18.3.5.Distributions. In the event the Company shall declare a distribution payable in securities of the Company, securities of other persons, evidence of indebtedness issued by the Company or other persons, assets (including cash dividends) or options or rights then, in each such case for the purpose of this Article 18.3.5the holders of the Preferred Shares shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Ordinary Shares into which their shares of Preferred Shares are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive such distribution.

 

18.3.6.Recapitalizations. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares (other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in this Article 18), provision shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred Shares shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred Shares the number of Ordinary Shares or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise, to which a holder of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares would have been entitled immediately prior to such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Article with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Shares after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Article (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.

(b)Each Offeree shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Ordinary Holder within fifteen (15) business days after the receipt of the Seller’s Notice, to participate in such Transfer under the same terms and conditions specified in the Seller’s Notice. To the extent that one or more of the Offeree(s) exercise such right of participation in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of shares that such Ordinary Holder may sell in the transaction shall be correspondingly reduced.

 

(c)Each Offeree may sell all or part of that number of such Offeree’s shares equal to the number of shares obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares covered by the Seller’s Notice by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares owned by the Offeree at that time and the denominator of which is the total number of shares owned by such Ordinary Holder and all of the Offerees participating in such sale or transfer, on an as converted basis (the "Offeree's Pro Rata Share").

 

(d)No transfer of shares by an Ordinary Holder shall be concluded unless the purchaser thereof concurrently purchases, under the same terms, all of the shares for which the Offerees elected to participate as aforesaid.

 

(e)The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Offerees hereunder to participate in one or more sales of shares made by an Ordinary Holder shall not affect their rights to participate in subsequent sales pursuant to this Article 44.7.

 

(f)If none of the Offerees elects to participate in the sale, the Ordinary Holder may, not later than ninety (90) days following delivery of the Seller’s Notice, enter into an agreement providing for the transfer of the shares covered by the Seller’s Notice on terms and conditions not more favorable to the transferor than those described in the Seller’s Notice. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions more favorable than those described in the Seller’s Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any of the shares of the Ordinary Holder, shall again be subject to the co-sale rights of the Offerees and shall require compliance by the Ordinary Holder with the procedures described in this Article 44.7.

 

26
 

 

 

(g)In the event, however, that the Ordinary Holders shall sell shares in a transaction or in a series of transactions that will result in a change in Control of the Company, the Offerees shall have a right, in their discretion, to participate in such a transaction(s) as aforesaid up to their total shares in the Company, in lieu of the Ordinary Holders.

 

(h)It is hereby clarified that the above co-sale right does not derogate from the right of first refusal under these Articles, and only if such right of first refusal is not exercised shall the sale then be subject to the co-sale right.

 

(i)In the event an Ordinary Holder should sell any of his shares in contravention of the co-sale rights of the Offerees hereunder (a “Prohibited Transfer”), each Offeree, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to such Offeree at law, in equity or hereunder, shall have the put option provided below, and such Ordinary Holder shall be bound by the applicable provisions of such option.

 

(j)In the event of a Prohibited Transfer by an Ordinary Holder, each Offeree shall have the right to sell to such Ordinary Holder the type and number of shares equal to the number of shares each Offeree would have been entitled to transfer to the purchaser under this Article 44.7 hereinabove had the Prohibited Transfer hereof been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms hereof. Such sale shall be made at a price per share equal to the price per share paid by the purchaser to such Ordinary Holder in the Prohibited Transfer. The Ordinary Holder shall also reimburse each Offeree for any and all fees and expenses, including legal fees and expenses, incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of the Offeree’s rights under this Sub-Article 44.7(i).
