The Conversion Price will be subject to a Valuation Cap of $15 million.

2.  Conversion. This SAFE will be convertible into Common Stock pursuant to the following terms.
 
    2.1  Next Equity Financing Conversion. This SAFE will automatically convert into Common Stock upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing subject to the Valuation Cap, or in the event there is no Next Equity Financing before December 31, 2019 the Series 1 SAFEs will automatically convert into 80% of the Common Stock.

    2.2  Mechanics of Conversion.
 
(a)  Financing Agreements. The Holder acknowledges that the conversion of this SAFE into Common Shares may require the Holder’s execution of certain agreements relating to the purchase and sale of the Common Shares, as well as registration rights, rights of first refusal and co-sale, rights of first offer and voting rights, if any, relating to such securities (collectively, the “Financing Agreements”). The Holder agrees to execute all of the Financing Agreements in connection with a Next Equity Financing.
 
(b)  Certificates. As promptly as practicable after the conversion of this SAFE and the issuance of the Conversion Shares, the Company (at its expense) will issue and deliver a certificate or certificates evidencing the Conversion Shares (if certificated) to the Holder. The Company will not be required to issue or deliver the Conversion Shares until the Holder has surrendered this SAFE to the Company (or provided an instrument of cancellation or affidavit of loss).
 
3.  No Rights as a Stockholder. The Holder is not entitled by virtue of holding this SAFE to be deemed a holder of the Company’s capital stock for any purpose, nor will anything contained in this SAFE be construed to confer on the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive subscription rights or otherwise until Conversion Shares have been issued upon the terms described in this SAFE.
  
4.  Representations and Warranties of the Company. In connection with the transactions contemplated by this SAFE, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:

The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
 
    4.2  Authorization and Enforceability. Except for the authorization and issuance of the Conversion Shares, all corporate action has been taken on the part of the Company and its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this SAFE.
