Share Dilution Adjustment:
Aggregate Subscription Price Paid by Purchaser for outstanding Shares held by Purchaser on the date of the Share Dilutive Issuance} {Divided by the Share Dilutive Price} minus the number of Shares owned by the Purchaser prior to the Share Dilutive Issuance
Example:
• Purchaser owns 100,000 shares with a cost basis of 850,000
• Company issues Stock at 80.10 triggering a Share Dilutive Event
• Company issues Purchaser 400,000 additional shares
(50,000/0.10) = 500,000 shares
500,000 - 100,000 = 400,000 newly issued shares
The additional shares to be issued in the Share Dilution Adjustment shall be issued by the Company to the Purchaser for those outstanding shares held on the date of the applicable Share Dilutive Issuance. Such Share Dilution Adjustment shall be made successfully whenever such an issuance is made, until the Protection Period expires. The shares issued in this Adjustment must be delivered to the Purchaser not later than the date the Share Dilutive Issuance occurs.
