2.

 

2.                                      Note Conversion.

 

2.1                               Automatic Conversion Upon the Occurrence of a Financing.  If, after the date hereof, the Company shall (i) obtain equity investments from an investor or a group of investors aggregating at least $25,000,000, excluding any principal and interest on the Notes converted into equity securities in such financing  or (ii) obtain (a) equity investments from an investor or a group of investors aggregating at least $10,000,000, excluding any principal and interest on the Notes converted into equity securities in such

 



 

financing and (b) on or before the date of such financing, commitments pursuant to one or more definitive collaboration agreements with third parties pursuant to which such third parties will provide the Company with no less than $15,000,000 in guaranteed and non-contingent non-dilutive funding to be received by the Company on or before the second anniversary of the Maturity Date (either (i) or (ii) above, a “Qualified Financing”), then all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall, effective on the closing date of such Qualified Financing automatically convert into such number of shares of the type of equity securities to be issued in the equity financing  equal to the quotient of:

 

(a) the aggregate amount of then outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note divided by

 

(b) the lowest price per share actually paid by the investors participating in the equity financing for the securities issued in such Qualified Financing.

 

2.2                               Optional Conversion Upon the Occurrence of Non-Qualified Financing.  If, after the date hereof, the Company shall obtain an equity investment from an investor or a group of investors which does not qualify as a Qualified Financing (a “Non-Qualified Financing”), all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall, at the Holder’s option and effective on the date of such Non-Qualified Financing, be converted into such number of shares of the type of equity securities to be issued in the Non-Qualified Financing equal to the quotient of:

(a) the aggregate amount of then outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note divided by

 

(b) the original purchase price for the Series C Preferred.

 

2.4                               Conversion Procedure.  If this Note is converted to equity securities pursuant to Section 2, the following terms shall govern such conversion.

 

2.4.1                     Notice of Conversion.  With respect to a conversion pursuant to Section 2.1, not less than ten days prior to the closing of the Qualified Financing the Company shall deliver written notice to the Holder of this Note at the address shown on the records of the Company for the Holder, notifying the Holder of the conversion to be effective, specifying the equity securities into which this Note shall be converted, the principal amount of the Note to be

In addition, upon the conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, the Holder shall agree to (and execute any documents in connection therewith) any associated restrictions agreed to by the investors in such Qualified Financing or Non-Qualified Financing, including in any case, without limitation, all applicable registration rights, co-sale rights, rights of first refusal, pre-emptive rights, voting agreements, transfer restrictions and other similar rights and restrictions. In addition, upon the conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 2.3, the Holder shall agree to (and execute any documents in connection therewith) any associated restrictions agreed to by the Series C Preferred investors, including in any case the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, the Amended and Restated Voting Agreement and the Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, each dated May 20, 2011, by and among the Company and each of the parties named therein.

 

2.4.2                     Mechanics and Effect of Conversion.  No fractional shares of the Company’s equity securities shall be issued upon conversion of this Note.  In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to the Holder upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Holder the amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest that is not so converted in cash.  The Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the principal office of the Company after full conversion of this Note in exchange for stock certificates representing the equity securities into which this Note has been converted.  Upon full conversion of this Note, the Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

 

2.5                               Optional Conversion Upon a Liquidation .  In the event the Company proposes to enter into a transaction which, if consummated, would constitute a Liquidation  prior to conversion pursuant to Section 2.1, Section 2.2 or Section 2.3, the Company shall provide the

 



 

Holder with twenty (20) days written notice prior to the consummation of such transaction (the “Liquidation Notice”).  The Liquidation Notice shall set forth the material terms of the proposed Liquidation, including, without limitation, the proposed structure of the Liquidation and the amount and type of consideration to be received by the Company’s equity holders.  The Holder shall have the option to (i) redeem this Note for a cash payment from the Company equal to the aggregate amount of outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, effective on the date of such Liquidation, or (ii) convert, subject to Section 2.4.2, all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, effective on the date of such Liquidation, into such number of shares of Series C Preferred equal to the quotient of:

 

(a) the aggregate amount of outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note divided by

 

(b)  the original purchase price for the Series C Preferred.

 

In the event the Holder elects to exercise its conversion right pursuant to this Section 2.5, the Holder shall, within seven (7) days of the Holder’s receipt of the Liquidation Notice, deliver written notice to the Company of such election.

 

2.6                               Covenants as to Conversion Shares.  The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of equity securities that may be issued upon the conversion of this Note (“Conversion Securities”) will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times during the pendency of the conversion rights under this Note, have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of the series of equity securities comprising the Conversion Shares to provide for the conversion of this Note. If at any time during such period the number of authorized but unissued shares of such series of the Company’s equity securities shall not be sufficient to permit conversion of this Note, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of such series of the Company’s equity securities to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

 

2.7                               Prepayment.  Except in connection with a Liquidation where the Holder elects not to convert this Note, without the written consent of the Requisite Holders, the Company may not and shall not prepay any portion of the outstanding principal of this Note.  In the event the Requisite Holders consent to the prepayment of Notes, prepayments shall be made by the Company to the Investors who elect to receive such prepayments on a pro-rata basis.

 

3.                                      Interest.  Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at the rate of 8% per year, compounded annually on the basis of actual days elapsed in a 365- or 366-day year, as appropriate.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, the Holder does not intend to charge, and the Company shall not be required to pay, any interest or other fees or charges or premiums in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law; any payments in excess of such maximum shall be refunded to the Company or credited to reduce principal hereunder.
