“(ii)        Subject to Sections 2.1(b)(i) and 2.8, each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive such number of fully paid and nonassessable Parent Shares that would result in the Shareholders having a right to receive an aggregate number of Parent Shares immediately following the Effective Time that represents eighty-two percent (82%) of the total issued and outstanding Parent Shares immediately following the Effective Time, assuming there are no Dissenting Shareholder Interests as of the Effective Time (the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating the Exchange Ratio, the aggregate number of Parent Shares held by the Shareholders immediately following the Effective Time shall exclude (i) any Parent Shares owned by the Shareholders immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) the Parent Warrants, and (iii) any Parent Shares issued or issuable to the Shareholders pursuant to the exercise of the Parent Warrants.
