	4	U.S.
    Securities Law Representations. Each Preferred Stockholder severally (not jointly and severally) makes the following representations
    to Boxlight:

 

	 	4.1	I
    am aware that my investment in the Conversion Shares involves a high degree of risk and I or my Sellers’ Representative
    have read carefully the Boxlight Boxlight SEC Documents. I acknowledge and am aware that there is no assurance as to the future
    performance of Boxlight or its consolidated direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Sahara.
	 	 	 
	 	4.2	I
    am purchasing the Conversion Shares for my own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for sale in
    connection with the distribution of the Conversion Shares, nor with any present intention of selling or otherwise disposing
    of all or any part of the foregoing securities. I agree that I must bear the entire economic risk of my investment for an
    indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Conversion Shares have not been registered under the Securities
    Act or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of
    unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under applicable securities laws of certain states or
    an exemption from such registration is available. I hereby authorize Boxlight to place a restrictive legend on the Conversion
    Shares that are issued to me.
	 	 	 
	 	4.3	I
    believe that the investment in the Conversion Shares is suitable for me based upon my investment objectives and financial
    needs, and I have adequate means for providing for my current financial needs and contingencies and have no need for liquidity
    with respect to my investment in Boxlight.
	 	 	 
	 	4.4	I
    have been given access to full and complete information regarding Boxlight and have utilized such access to my satisfaction
    for the purpose of obtaining information in addition to, or verifying information included in, the Boxlight SEC Documents,
    and I have either met with or been given reasonable opportunity to meet with officers of Boxlight for the purpose of asking
    questions of, and receiving answers from, such officers concerning the the business and operations of Boxlight and to obtain
    any additional information, to the extent reasonably available. All of my questions have been answered to my full satisfaction.
	 	 	 
	 	4.5	I
    have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
    an investment in the Conversion Shares and have obtained, in my judgment, sufficient information from Boxlight to evaluate
    the merits and risks of an investment in Boxlight. 
	 	 	 
	 	4.6	I
    am an “accredited investor” as defined in Section 2(15) of the Securities Act and in Rule 501 promulgated thereunder
    I can bear the entire economic risk of the investment in the Conversion Shares for an indefinite period of time and I am knowledgeable
    about and experienced in making investments in the equity securities of non-publicly traded companies, including early stage
    companies. I am not acting as an underwriter or a conduit for sale to the public or to others of unregistered securities,
    directly or indirectly, on behalf of Boxlight or any person with respect to such securities.
	 	 	 
	 	4.7	I
    understand that (1) the Conversion Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of certain
    states, in reliance on specific exemptions from registration, (2) no securities administrator of any state or the federal
    government has recommended or endorsed this offering or made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of an investment
    in Boxlight, and (3) Boxlight is relying on my representations and agreements for the purpose of determining whether this
    transaction meets the requirements of certain exemptions from registration afforded by the Securities Act and certain state
    securities laws. I understand that since neither the offer nor sale of the Conversion Shares has been registered under the
    Securities Act or the securities laws of any state, the Conversion Shares may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise
    disposed of unless they are so registered or an exemption from such registration is available.
	 	 	 
	 	4.8	I
    have had the opportunity to seek independent advice from my professional advisors relating to the suitability of an investment
    in Boxlight in view of my overall financial needs and with respect to the legal and tax implications of such investment.

Exhibit 4.2

 

DESCRIPTION OF LANDOS BIOPHARMA, INC. COMMON STOCK

The following description of the common stock of Landos Biopharma, Inc., or the Company, and certain provisions of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or the restated certificate, and amended and restated bylaws, or restated bylaws, are summaries. These summaries are qualified in the entirety by reference to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the complete text of the restated certificate and restated bylaws, which are incorporated by reference as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to which this description is also an exhibit.

General

The restated certificate authorizes us to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share, all of which shares of preferred stock are undesignated. The Company’s board of directors may establish the rights and preferences of the preferred stock from time to time.

Common Stock

Voting Rights

Each holder of the Company’s common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. The affirmative vote of holders of at least 662/3% of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock, voting as a single class, is required to amend certain provisions of the restated certificate, including provisions relating to amending the Company’s restated bylaws, the classified board, the size of the Company’s board, removal of directors, director liability, vacancies on the Company’s board, special meetings, stockholder notices, actions by written consent and exclusive forum.

Dividends

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of legally available funds.

Liquidation

In the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of the Company’s debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then-outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Rights and Preferences

Holders of common stock have no preemptive, conversion or subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the right of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that the Company’s board of directors may designate in the future.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law

The Company is subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:

	
 
	
•
	
before such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

 

	
 
	
•
	
upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not 

 

 

	
 
		
the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

	
 
	
•
	
on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 662⁄3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include the following:

	
 
	
•
	
any merger or consolidation involving the corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the corporation and the interested stockholder;

 

	
 
	
•
	
any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder (in one transaction or a series of transactions);

 

	
 
	
•
	
subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation or by any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the corporation of any stock of the corporation or of such subsidiary to the interested stockholder;

 

	
 
	
•
	
any transaction involving the corporation or any direct or indirect majority-owned subsidiary of the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits by or through the corporation.

In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.

Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws

The restated certificate provides for the Company’s board of directors to be divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. Because the Company’s stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights, stockholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding will be able to elect all of the Company’s directors. The restated certificate and restated bylaws provide that directors may be removed by the stockholders only for cause upon the vote of 662/3% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Furthermore, the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of the board of directors, and vacancies and newly created directorships on the board of directors may, except as otherwise required by law or determined by the board, only be filled by a majority vote of the directors then serving on the board, even though less than a quorum.

The restated certificate and restated bylaws also provide that all stockholder actions must be effected at a duly called meeting of stockholders and will eliminate the right of stockholders to act by written consent without a meeting. The restated bylaws provide that only the Company’s Chairman of the board, Chief Executive Officer or the board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors may call a special meeting of stockholders.

The restated bylaws also provide that stockholders seeking to present proposals before a meeting of stockholders to nominate candidates for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders must provide timely advance notice in writing, and will specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice.

The restated certificate and restated bylaws provide that the stockholders cannot amend many of the provisions described above except by a vote of 662⁄3% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The restated certificates gives the Company’s board of directors the authority, without further action by the Company’s stockholders, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, with any rights, preferences and privileges as they may designate, including the right to approve an acquisition or other change in control.

The combination of these provisions will make it more difficult for the Company’s existing stockholders to replace the Company’s board of directors as well as for another party to obtain control of the Company by 

 

 

replacing the Company’s board of directors. Since the Company’s board of directors has the power to retain and discharge the Company’s officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for the Company’s board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of the Company.

These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of the Company’s board of directors and its policies and to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to reduce the Company’s vulnerability to hostile takeovers and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for the Company’s shares and may have the effect of delaying changes in the Company’s control or management. As a consequence, these provisions may also inhibit fluctuations in the market price of the Company’s stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. The Company believes that the benefits of these provisions, including increased protection of the Company’s potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure the Company’s company, outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging takeover proposals, because negotiation of takeover proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.
