(b)           Optional Conversion. In the event iPower has completed an IPO that does not meet the requirements of a Qualified IPO, the Holder has the right, at the Holder’s option, to convert the outstanding and unpaid Optional Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(b), at the Conversion Price (as set forth in Section 3(a)(i) above). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Optional Conversion Amount pursuant to this Section 3(b) shall be equal to the quotient of dividing the Optional Conversion Amount by the Conversion Price. iPower shall not issue any fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock upon any conversion.

(iii)           Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to iPower unless (A) the full Optional Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided iPower with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note.
