To the extent that the above provisions of this Section 1 would result in the issuance of a fractional New Security to an Aquarius Party, the Company shall select one of the following options: (i) issue such fractional New Security to such Aquarius Party, (ii) round the number of New Securities to be issued to such Aquarius Party up to the nearest whole number, or (iii) pay cash to such Aquarius Party in lieu of such fractional New Security, based on the Financing Price.
