Contractual Preemptive Rights. If prior to a Qualified Public Offering, the Company shall issue any Equity Securities, each holder of Underlying Common Stock shall be entitled to purchase the portion of such Equity Securities to be issued necessary in order that the. aggregate shares of Common Stock and Underlying Common Stock held by such holder constitute the same percentage of all Common Stock (assuming, in each case, the conversion, exercise or exchange of all outstanding Equity Securities, including outstanding Equity Securities held by such holder) after the issuance of such Equity Securities as before the issuance thereof; provided, however, that such preemptive right shall not apply to (a) issuances of Equity Securities to employees of the Company as and to the extent permitted by paragraph 4D(iv), (b) issuances of Equity Securities upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of other Equity Securities to which the preemptive rights granted hereunder were applicable, (c) issuances of Equity Securities in connection with an exercise of the preemptive rights granted hereunder, or (d) issuances of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Agreement or issuances of Common Stock or other Equity Securities as a dividend or other distribution with respect to the Preferred Stock or upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. The price of securities which each holder becomes entitled to purchase by reason hereof shall be the same price at which such securities are offered to others. A holder of Underlying Common Stock may exercise his or its right under this paragraph 7P to purchase Equity Securities by paying the purchase price therefor at the principal office of the Company within 15 days after receipt of notice from the Company (which notice by the Company shall be given at least 20 days before the issuance of the Equity Securities) stating the amount of Equity Securities it intends to issue and the price and characteristics thereof. The holder shall pay such purchase price in cash or by check; provided, however, that if the Company is indebted to such holder, the holder shall be entitled, at the holder's sole option, to credit against the purchase price all or any portion of the Company's indebtedness to such holder which is then due (accrued and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be indebtedness for purposes of such credit). A holder's contractual preemptive rights hereunder shall be deemed to be exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the day of payment of the purchase price in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and at such time such holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of the Equity Securities, as the case may be. As promptly as practicable (and in any event within ten days) on or after the purchase date, the Company shall issue and deliver at its principal office a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares or amount, whichever is applicable, of Equity Securities together with cash for any 17 fraction of a share or portion of an Equity Security at the purchase price to which the holder is entitled hereunder. * * * 18 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this agreement on the day and year first written above.
