1.2 Additional Shares. For each six-month period from and after the six-month anniversary of the Effective Date (each, a "Measurement Period") that the Purchaser guarantees that certain debt facility for the benefit of the Company (the "Guaranty"), by and between the Company and Silicon Valley Bank, dated as of even date herewith, in the aggregate maximum principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (as amended from time to time, the "Loan Facility"), and such Guaranty and/or amounts thereunder remain outstanding, or otherwise available to Company thereunder, in consideration of the on-going Guaranty by the Purchaser, the Company shall automatically and immediately issue to Purchaser, in addition to the number of Shares issued pursuant to Section 1.1 of this Agreement, that number of additional Shares, rounded upward to the nearest whole number, equal to (a) two and one half percent (2.5%) multiplied by the maximum principal amount of the Loan Facility at any time during such Measurement Period, such amount to be divided by (b) the twenty (20) day average closing price of the Company's common stock, measured from the period of the twenty (20) trading days immediately prior to such Measurement Period, the quotient of which shall be multiplied by (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days during the Measurement Period which the Guaranty remained in effect and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in such Measurement Period (such additional shares being called the "Additional Shares"). Upon the termination of the Loan Facility, the foregoing calculation of the Additional Shares for the Measurement Period in which such termination occurred shall be prorated based on the portion of the applicable Measurement Period during which the Loan Facility remained in effect prior to the termination thereof, rounded to the end of the month of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be a minimum of one full Measurement Period for the purposes of calculating the number of Additional Shares, regardless of the status of the Loan Facility. For the purpose of clarity, the consideration for the Additional Shares shall be the continuation of the Guaranty for each Measurement Period provided by the Purchaser to the Company for the Loan Facility.
Section 2. CLOSING
The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the "Closing") will occur upon the execution of this Agreement by both parties hereto. Seller will deliver to Purchaser the certificates representing the Shares being issued by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, with appropriate stock power(s) attached and endorsed in blank, and with respect to Additional Shares, the certificate representing the Shares being issued with respect to each Measurement Period shall be issued to Purchaser within ten (10) business days following the end of the applicable Measurement Period.
