In the event the Company consummates, prior to the Maturity Date, an equity financing pursuant to which it sells shares of a series of Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") with an aggregate sales price of not less than $5,000,000, excluding any and all notes which are converted into preferred stock (including this Note and any other Notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement), and with the principal purpose of raising capital (a "Qualified Equity Financing"), then an amount equal to 120% of the sum of the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued interest under this Note (the "Conversion Amount") shall automatically convert into a number of shares of the Preferred Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Conversion Amount by (y) the per share price of the Preferred Stock, rounded down to the nearest whole share. (b) Automatic Conversion Procedure. The issuance of Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Conversion Amount shall be upon the terms and subject to the conditions applicable to the Qualified Equity Financing. Upon such conversion of the Conversion Amount, the Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents related to the Qualified Equity Financing; provided, however that such transaction documents are substantially the same documents to be entered into with all other purchasers of the Preferred Stock in connection with the Qualified Equity Financing; and provided further that the transaction documents will not in any way limit the contractual rights of the Investor by virtue of the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be held by the Investor upon conversion without the consent of the Investor. The Investor 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 Investor agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) at the closing of the Qualified Equity Financing for cancellation; provided, however that upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 4(b), 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. (c) Optional Conversion. (i) Nonqualified Equity Securities. If, prior to the earlier of (A) a Change of Control or (B) the Maturity Date, the Company sells equity securities in an equity financing that does not constitute a Qualified Equity Financing (such equity securities, the "Nonqualified Equity Securities"), then all or a portion of the Conversion Amount shall be convertible at the option of the Investor into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Nonqualified Equity Securities determined by dividing such amount of the Conversion Amount by the per share purchase price of the Nonqualified Equity Securities, rounded down to the nearest whole share. As a condition precedent (which may be waived by Company) to conversion of this Note as provided for in this Section 4(c)(i), Investor will be required to execute the definitive stock purchase agreement and other agreements prepared in connection with such equity financing. -3- EFTA01186446 (ii) Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs or an Initial Public Offering occurs prior to a Qualified Equity Financing (and provided the Note has not been converted into shares of Nonqualified Equity Securities in accordance with Section 4(c)(i)), then Investor has the right, at Investor's option, to convert the Conversion Amount (calculated as of immediately prior to such Change of Control or Initial Public Offering) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's common stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock at the time of such conversion; provided, however, that in the event of a Change of Control, in lieu of converting this Note to common stock pursuant to this Section 4(c)(ii), the Investor may elect to accelerate the Maturity Date of this Note such that all unpaid principal and all accrued interest under this Note shall be due and payable as of the date of the Change of Control. Before the Investor shall be entitled to convert this Note into shares of common stock pursuant to this Section 4(c)(ii), the Investor shall execute and deliver to the Company a common stock purchase agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company containing customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering). (iii) In the event that a Majority in Interest of Investors elect to convert their Notes in accordance with any subsection of this Section 4(c), all Notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement (including this Note) shall be so converted. (d) Optional Conversion Procedure. Before the Investor shall be entitled to convert this Note into shares of the Company's stock pursuant Section 4(c), it shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company and shall give written notice to the Company at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same pursuant to Section 4(c), and shall state therein the amount of the unpaid principal and accrued interest of this Note to be converted and the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of stock are to be issued. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to the Investor a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of stock to which the Investor shall be entitled upon conversion (bearing such legends as are required by the applicable stock purchase agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, and applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of counsel to the Company), together with a replacement Note (if any principal amount is not converted) and any other securities and property to which Investor is entitled upon such conversion under the terms of this Note, including a check payable to the Investor for any cash amounts payable as described in Section 4(e). The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the surrender of this Note, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of stock upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record Investor or Investors of such shares of stock as of such date. (e) Fractional Shares; Interest; Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to the Investor upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to Investor an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the applicable conversion price by the fraction of a share not issued pursuant to the previous sentence. In addition, to the extent not converted into shares of capital stock, the Company shall pay to Investor any interest accrued on the amount converted and on the amount to be paid to Company pursuant to the previous sentence. Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of the amounts specified in this paragraph, the Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note and this -4- EFTA01186447 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. (f) Notices of Record Date: Other Events. In the event of: (i) Any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities of Company for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right; or (ii) Any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of Company or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Company to any other Person or any consolidation or merger involving Company; or (iii) Any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding- up of the Company, the Company will mail to the registered holder of this Note at least ten (10) days prior to the earliest date specified therein, a notice specifying (A) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right; and (B) the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective and the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote thereon.
