At least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Corporate Transaction, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the terms of the Corporate Transaction.
  
 2.3 Maturity Conversion. Unless earlier converted to Conversion Shares or paid pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, at the election of the Holder at any time on or after the Maturity Date, this KISS shall be converted into that number of Conversion Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Purchase Price and unpaid accrued interest on this KISS by the Conversion Price.
  
 2.4 No Fractional Shares. Upon the conversion of this KISS into Conversion Shares, in lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder of this KISS would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay the holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price.
  
 2.5 Mechanics of Conversion. As promptly as practicable after the conversion of this KISS, the Company at its expense will issue and deliver to the Holder, upon surrender of this KISS, a certificate or certificates for the number of Conversion Shares. Conversion of this KISS may be made contingent upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing or Corporate Transaction.

 3.3 Offering. Subject in part to the truth and accuracy of the Investor’s representations set forth herein, the offer, sale and issuance of this KISS are exempt from the registration requirements of any applicable state and federal securities laws, and neither the Company nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.
  
 3.4 Compliance with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery and performance of this KISS, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will not constitute or result in a default, violation, conflict or breach in any material respect of any provision of the Company’s current Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, or in any material respect of any instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree, privacy policy or contract to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or, to its knowledge, of any provision of any federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company.

 4. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Investor hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:
  
 4.1 Authorization. This KISS constitutes Investor’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
  
 4.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Investor acknowledges that this KISS is issued to Investor in reliance upon Investor’s representation to the Company that the KISS will be acquired for investment for Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.
  
 4.3 Investment Experience. Investor is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in this KISS. Investor also represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring this KISS.
  
 4.4 Accredited Investor. Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).
  
 4.5 Restricted Security. Investor understands that this KISS is characterized as a “restricted security” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as it is being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances.
  
 5. Miscellaneous.
  
 5.1 Most Favored Nation. In the event the Company sells or issues any convertible instruments (other than the issuance of stock options to service providers of the Company) at any time prior to the earlier of (a) conversion of this KISS, (b) a Corporate Transaction or (c) payment in full of all outstanding principal and accrued interest in accordance with this KISS, the Company shall provide the Investor with written notice of such sale or issuance no later than five (5) days after the closing date thereof, including the price and terms of such convertible instruments (the “Subsequent Instruments”). In the event the Investor determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that any Subsequent Instrument contains terms more favorable to the holder(s) thereof than the terms set forth in this KISS, the Investor may elect to exchange this KISS for a Subsequent Instrument.

 5.2 Major Investor Rights. In the event the Investor, together with its affiliates, purchases one or more KISSes with an aggregate Purchase Price equal to or exceeding $25,000 (a “Major Investor”), the Company shall provide such Major Investor with the following rights:
  
 (a) Information Rights. To the extent that the Company prepares Financial Statements, the Company shall deliver to the Major Investor such Financial Statements upon request, as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the end of each of the first three (3) quarters of each fiscal year of the Company and within ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company. Such Financial Statements shall be in reasonable detail and prepared on a consistent basis. Additionally, regardless of whether the Company prepares Financial Statements, the Company shall deliver to the Major Investor such information relating to the financial condition, business or corporate affairs of the Company as such Major Investor may from time to time reasonably request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2(a), the Company shall not be obligated under this Section 5.2(a) to provide information that (x) it deems in good faith to be a trade secret or highly confidential information or (y) the disclosure of which would adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel; and the Investor agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all of the information provided to the Investor under this Section 5.2(a) and agrees not to use such information other than for a purpose reasonably related to the Investor’s investment in the Company.
  
 (b) Participation Rights. Each time the Company proposes to offer any Equity Securities at any time through and including the closing of the Next Equity Financing, the Company shall provide the Major Investor with at least ten (10) business days prior written notice of such offering, including the price and terms thereof. The Major Investor shall have a right of first offer to participate in such offering(s), on the same terms and for the same price as all other investors in such offering(s), by purchasing an aggregate number of Equity Securities (whether in one offering or across multiple offerings) valued at up to the Participation Amount. The Major Investor’s right of first offer set forth in this Section 5.2(b) shall be subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws.
  
 (c) “Major Investor” Rights. The Company shall ensure that the Major Investor shall be deemed to be a “Major Investor” (or such similar term) for all purposes, including, without limitation, rights of first offer and information rights, in relevant financing documents related to all subsequent sales of Equity Securities, to the extent such concept exists.
  
 5.3 Payment. All payments, if any, shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Payment shall be credited first to Costs (as defined below), if any, then to accrued interest due and payable and any remainder applied to principal or the Corporate Transaction Payment, as applicable. Prepayment of principal, together with accrued interest, may not be made without the prior written consent of the Investor. The Company hereby waives demand, notice, presentment, protest and notice of dishonor.

 5.4 Costs, Expenses and Attorneys’ Fees; Indemnity. The Company hereby agrees, subject only to any limitation imposed by applicable law, to pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, incurred by the holder of this KISS in endeavoring to collect any amounts payable hereunder which are not paid when due, whether by declaration or otherwise (“Costs”). The Company agrees that any delay on the part of the holder in exercising any rights hereunder will not operate as a waiver of such rights. The holder of this KISS shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies, and no waiver of any kind shall be valid unless in writing and signed by the party or parties waiving such rights or remedies. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this KISS, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. The Company shall indemnify and hold the Investor harmless from any loss, cost, liability and legal or other expense, including attorneys’ fees of the Investor’s counsel, which the Investor may directly or indirectly suffer or incur by reason of the failure of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this KISS or any agreement executed in connection herewith; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall not apply to liabilities which the Investor may directly or indirectly suffer or incur by reason of the Investor’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
  
 5.5 Security. This KISS is a general unsecured obligation of the Company.
  
 5.6 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this KISS shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that the Company may not assign its obligations under this KISS without the prior written consent of the Holder. The Holder may assign any or all of its rights under this KISS to another party without any restrictions with a 30-day written notice to the Company.
  
 5.7 Governing Law. This KISS shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California as applied to other instruments made by California residents to be performed entirely within the State of California, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law.
  
 5.8 Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this KISS shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earlier of actual receipt or: (a) personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent, if sent by electronic mail or facsimile during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not sent during normal business hours, then on the recipient’s next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, freight prepaid, specifying next business day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

 5.9 Financing Agreements. The Investor understands and agrees that the conversion of the KISS into Conversion Shares may require the Investor’s execution of certain agreements relating to the purchase and sale of such securities as well as registration, co-sale, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer and voting rights, if any, relating to such securities. The Investor agrees to execute all such agreements in connection with the conversion so long as the issuance of Conversion Shares issued pursuant to the conversion of this KISS are subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Preferred Stock sold in the Next Equity Financing (or the Shadow Series or Series Seed Preferred Stock, as applicable).
  
 5.10 Severability. If one or more provisions of this KISS are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this KISS and the balance of the KISS shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
  
 5.11 Acknowledgement. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that the Investor shall be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock of the Company or as a result of any splits, recapitalizations, combinations or other similar transaction affecting the Common Stock or Preferred Stock underlying the Conversion Shares that occur prior to the conversion of the KISS.
  
 5.12 Further Assurance. From time to time, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Investor such additional documents and shall provide such additional information to the Investor as the Investor may reasonably require to carry out the terms of this KISS and to be informed of the financial and business conditions and prospects of the Company.
  
 5.13 Transfer of a KISS. Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, this KISS and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or in part by the Investor to any person or entity upon written approval of the Company. If the Company does not provide written approval for a transfer within 30 days of receiving written notice of intent to transfer, the Company shall be obligated to buy back the KISS on the same terms.
  
 5.14 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This KISS and the other KISSes in the Series constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof. The Company’s agreements with each Holder are separate agreements, and the sales of the KISSes to each Holder are separate sales. Nonetheless, any term of the KISSes in the Series may be amended and the observance of any term of the KISSes in the Series may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and the Majority in Interest; provided, however, that Sections 2.2, 5.2 (if and only if Investor is a Major Investor), 5.3, 5.6, 5.13 and 5.14 may not be amended or waived without the written consent of the Investor. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this Section 5.14 shall be binding upon the Company and each current and future member of the KISS Group.
  
 5.15 Exculpation Among Holders. Each Holder acknowledges that it is not relying upon any person, firm, corporation or stockholder, other than the Company and its officers and directors in their capacities as such, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. Each Holder agrees that no other Holder nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, stockholders or employees of any other Holder shall be liable for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase and sale of the KISSes.
