3.2             Manner of Conversion .  Upon delivery of the Conversion Notice, whether or not Sunesis has previously surrendered this Note in accordance with the following sentence, Sunesis shall cease to have any rights pursuant to this Note, but shall have all of the rights granted to it as a holder of the Conversion Shares into which this Note is converted, including, without limitation, any such rights holders of Conversion Shares may have upon liquidation, dissolution, change of control or initial public offering of the Company or a Sale of the Company.  To receive a certificate representing the Conversion Shares into which this Note converts, Sunesis shall surrender this Note to the Company.  As soon as practicable after the surrender of this Note, the Company shall issue and deliver to Sunesis a certificate for the number of whole shares issuable upon conversion of this Note.  Upon conversion of the Principal Amount (and accrued but unpaid interest, to the extent described in Section 3.1(a)(x) above) into Conversion Shares as provided herein, the provisions of this Note relating to the obligation of the Company to pay principal and interest to Sunesis, set forth above, shall be null and void and no payment of principal and interest shall be owed or paid by the Company to Sunesis pursuant to this Note.

 

3.3             Conversion Price Adjustments .  Upon any conversion of this Note, the following adjustments shall be made:

 

(a)            Adjustments for Stock Splits and Subdivisions .  In the event Company should at any time or from time to time after the date of issuance hereof fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Private Placement Stock or the determination of holders of Private Placement Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Private Placement Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Private Placement Stock (hereinafter referred to as “ Private Placement Stock Equivalents ”) without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Private Placement Stock or the Private Placement Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Private Placement Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then the Conversion Price of this Note shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Private Placement Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares, provided that no adjustment shall be required pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) if the split, subdivision, stock dividend, or stock distribution triggering such adjustment was rescinded or terminated after the fixing of a record date or the determination of holders entitled to receipt thereof and prior to any conversion of this Note.

 

(b)            Adjustments for Reverse Stock Splits .  If the number of shares of Private Placement Stock outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Private Placement Stock, then the Conversion Price for this Note shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Private Placement Stock issuable on conversion hereof shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

 

(c)            Conversion or Redemption of Private Placement Stock .  Should all of Company’s outstanding preferred stock representing Private Placement Stock be at any time prior to conversion of this Note, redeemed or converted into shares of Company’s common stock in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation then in effect, then this Note shall be convertible into that number of shares of Company’s common stock equal to the number of shares of the common stock that would have been received if this Note had been converted in full and the Private Placement Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to such event; provided, however, that if the Company subsequently completes a Private Placement this Note shall be convertible, at the option of Sunesis, into shares of common stock or Private Placement Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.
