(a) Voluntary Conversion at time. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Investor has the right, at the Investor’s option, to elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the series of capital stock, with any fractional shares rounded up.

If a Financing occurs on or prior to the Maturity Date, then the Investor has the right, at Investor’s option, to elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note as of immediately prior to such Financing into fully paid and nonassessable securities issued by the Company in such Financing at the Financing Conversion Price, with any fractional securities rounded up.

(d) Conversion Procedure.

 

(i) Conversion Pursuant to Section 4(a). Before Investor shall be entitled to convert this Note into the applicable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 4(a), it shall surrender this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) and give written notice to the Company at its principal corporate office of the election to convert the same pursuant to Section 4(a), and shall state therein the amount of the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be converted. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such Investor a certificate or certificates (or a notice of issuance of uncertificated shares, if applicable) for the number of shares to which Investor shall be entitled upon such conversion, which shall be the number of shares determined by dividing the sum of the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted, and all accrued and unpaid interest related thereto, by the Conversion Price.

 

-A3-
 

 

(ii) Conversion Pursuant to Section 4(b). Before Investor shall be entitled to convert this Note into the applicable securities of the Company in accordance with Section 4(b), it shall surrender this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) and give written notice to the Company at its principal corporate office of the election to convert the same pursuant to Section 4(b), and shall state therein the amount of the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be converted. Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents (as may be amended) entered into by other purchasers participating in the Financing, including a purchase agreement, an investor rights agreement, voting agreement, right of first refusal and co-sale agreement and other ancillary agreements executed by the cash purchasers participating in the Financing, with customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including, without limitation, a lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering). The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such Investor a certificate or certificates (or a notice of issuance of uncertificated shares, if applicable) for the number of securities to which Investor shall be entitled upon such conversion which shall be the number of securities determined by dividing the sum of the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted, and all accrued and unpaid interest related thereto, by the Financing Conversion Price. Any conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 4(b) shall be deemed to have been made upon the satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in this Section 4 (d)(ii) and on and after such date the Persons entitled to receive the securities issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such securities.

 

(iii) Conversion Pursuant to Section 4(c). If this Note is to be automatically converted, written notice shall be delivered to Investor at the address last shown on the records of the Company for Investor or given by Investor to the Company for the purpose of notice, notifying Investor of the conversion to be effected, specifying the Liquidity Event Conversion Price, the principal amount of the Note to be converted, together with all accrued and unpaid interest to be converted, the date on which such conversion is expected to occur and calling upon such Investor to surrender to the Company, in the manner and at the place designated, the Note. Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the Liquidity Event. Investor also agrees to deliver the original of this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) at the closing of the Liquidity Event for cancellation; provided, however, that upon the closing of the Liquidity Event, this Note shall be deemed converted and of no further force and effect, whether or not it is delivered for cancellation as set forth in this sentence. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such Investor such consideration as Investor would have been entitled to receive pursuant to the Liquidity Event. For purposes of determining the amount of consideration Investor is entailed to receive upon a Liquidation Event, the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted, and all accrued and unpaid interest related thereto, will be divided by Liquidity Event Conversion Price to determine the number of shares the Investor would have been entitled to receive. In the event of a Liquidly Event, Investor will be entitled to receive the same consideration as that paid to the holders of Common Stock. Any conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 4(c) shall be deemed to have been made upon the closing of the Liquidity Event and on and after such date the Persons entitled to receive the shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares.

(iv) Fractional Shares; Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. Upon conversion of this Note, Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note and this Note shall be deemed of no further force or effect, whether or not the original of this Note has been delivered to the Company for cancellation.
