Principal Office: 2900 Sand Hill Road, Suite 240, Menlo Park, California 94025
Deal Lead: Samantha Reyes, Principal

The Lead Investor is an institutionally managed venture capital fund focused on seed and early-stage investments in enterprise software and data infrastructure companies. Vantage Peak Capital Management LLC serves as the general partner of the Lead Investor and has full authority to execute binding agreements, including SAFE instruments, on behalf of the Lead Investor.
2. Overview of the Offering
2.1 Security. The securities to be issued in this financing shall be Post-Money SAFEs (Simple Agreements for Future Equity), based on the standard form published by Calderon Partners LLC (the "YC Standard Form"), with certain modifications as described herein (each, a "SAFE" and collectively, the "SAFEs"). The SAFEs are not debt instruments, do not bear interest, and do not have a maturity date. Each SAFE represents the right to receive equity in the Company upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, as more particularly described in Section 4 below.
2.2 Total Round Size
The target aggregate SAFE amount for this financing round (the "Round") is $6,800,000 (Six Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars). The Company anticipates raising the total Round from the Lead Investor and up to three (3) additional co-investors (each, a "Co-Investor" and collectively, the "Co-Investors"), with each Co-Investor executing a separate SAFE on substantially identical material terms. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion and subject to the Exclusivity provisions set forth in Section 14, to adjust the aggregate Round size and the number of participating Co-Investors; provided, however, that any material change to the aggregate Round size shall be communicated to the Lead Investor promptly in writing.
2.3 Lead Investor Commitment
The Lead Investor, Vantage Peak Ventures Fund II, L.P., shall commit to purchase a SAFE in the aggregate amount of $3,500,000 (Three Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars), representing approximately 51.5% of the total Round. The full purchase amount shall be payable to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds at the closing of the Lead Investor's SAFE.
2.4 Post-Money Valuation Cap
The post-money valuation cap applicable to all SAFEs issued in this Round shall be $28,000,000 (Twenty-Eight Million Dollars) (the "Valuation Cap"). The Valuation Cap applies on a post-money basis, inclusive of the following:
(a) all SAFEs issued in this Round (including the Lead Investor SAFE and all Co-Investor SAFEs);
(b) all outstanding SAFEs from prior rounds of financing, including the pre-seed SAFEs described in Section 8.2 below;
(c) all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock;
(d) all shares reserved and available for future issuance under the Company's 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (whether or not granted); and
(e) any other outstanding options, warrants, or convertible securities of the Company,
in each case, calculated as of immediately prior to the conversion of the SAFEs (the "Company Capitalization"). The Valuation Cap serves as the ceiling on the effective valuation at which the SAFEs convert into equity upon the occurrence of an Equity Financing or other conversion event, as described in Section 4 below.
2.5 discount Rate
No discount shall apply to the conversion price of the SAFEs issued in this Round. The conversion price shall be determined solely by reference to the Valuation Cap and the price per share paid by new investors in the applicable Equity Financing, as set forth in Section 4.1.
3. Key Economic Terms
3.1 Pro Forma Ownership
Upon conversion of all SAFEs issued in this Round at the Valuation Cap, and assuming the full $6,800,000 Round is subscribed at the $28,000,000 post-money Valuation Cap, the pro forma ownership percentages of the new investors, on a fully diluted basis and prior to any dilution from the next Equity Financing, are estimated as follows:
The foregoing ownership percentages are presented on an as-converted, fully diluted basis for illustrative purposes only. Actual ownership percentages at the time of conversion will depend on the Company Capitalization at such time, including any additional equity grants, changes to the option pool, or other issuances occurring between the date of this term sheet and the date of conversion.
3.2 Use of Proceeds
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Round for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to:
(a) continued development and enhancement of the Lumos Prism platform, the Company's flagship machine-learning analytics product, including engineering, data science, and product management expenditures;
(b) expansion of the Company's sales and marketing functions, including the hiring of additional go-to-market personnel and investment in demand generation and customer acquisition initiatives; and
(c) general working capital needs, including operational expenses, administrative costs, and maintenance of adequate cash reserves to support the Company's growth trajectory through the next anticipated equity financing milestone.
The Company shall have broad discretion over the deployment of proceeds, and the foregoing description of intended uses shall not be construed as a binding commitment or restriction on the Company's use of funds.
4. Conversion Events
4.1 Equity Financing
The SAFE shall automatically convert into shares of the Company's preferred stock (the "Conversion Shares") upon the closing of a bona fide equity financing (an "Equity Financing") in which the Company issues and sells shares of its preferred stock to one or more investors, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of at least $1,000,000 (One Million Dollars), excluding for this purpose the conversion of SAFEs and any outstanding convertible notes. The Equity Financing shall be on customary institutional venture capital terms and shall be led by one or more institutional investors.
Upon conversion in connection with an Equity Financing, the SAFE holder shall receive the number of shares of the Company's preferred stock (or the series of preferred stock issued to new investors in the Equity Financing, as applicable) determined by dividing the SAFE holder's purchase amount by the applicable conversion price. The conversion price shall be the lesser of:
(a) the price per share paid by new investors in the Equity Financing; or
(b) the price per share equal to the Valuation Cap divided by the Company Capitalization (as defined in Section 2.4 above).
In no event shall the conversion price be less than zero or result in the issuance of a fractional share. Fractional shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share, and the Company shall pay cash in lieu of any fractional share in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the applicable conversion price.
4.2 Liquidity Event
In the event of a change of control (including a merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets) or a direct listing (collectively, a "Liquidity Event") occurring prior to the conversion of the SAFE in an Equity Financing, the SAFE holder shall have the right to elect, at its sole option, one of the following:
(a) Cash Payment. Receive a cash payment equal to the SAFE holder's purchase amount, payable upon the consummation of the Liquidity Event and subject to the priority and payment waterfall provisions of the definitive SAFE instrument; or
(b) Conversion. Convert the SAFE into shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the Valuation Cap divided by the Company Capitalization, and thereafter participate in the Liquidity Event as a holder of shares of Common Stock, receiving a pro rata portion of the consideration distributed to holders of Common Stock in connection with such Liquidity Event.
The SAFE holder must notify the Company of its election in writing no later than five (5) business days prior to the anticipated closing of the Liquidity Event. If the SAFE holder fails to make a timely election, the SAFE holder shall be deemed to have elected the cash payment option described in clause (a) above.
4.3 Dissolution Event
In the event of a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up, or liquidation of the Company (a "Dissolution Event"), the SAFE holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the SAFE holder's purchase amount, payable out of the remaining assets of the Company legally available for distribution. Such payment shall be made:
(a) after the satisfaction of all debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Company to its creditors (whether secured or unsecured), including any obligations under applicable tax law; but
(b) prior to any distribution of remaining assets to holders of the Company's capital stock (whether Common Stock or preferred stock).
If the assets of the Company available for distribution to SAFE holders upon a Dissolution Event are insufficient to permit payment in full of all SAFE purchase amounts, the available assets shall be distributed among the SAFE holders on a pro rata basis in proportion to their respective purchase amounts.
5. Most Favored Nation (MFN) Provision
If, at any time following the execution of the Lead Investor's SAFE and prior to the conversion of such SAFE in an Equity Financing, the Company issues any subsequent SAFE, convertible note, or other convertible security (each, a "Subsequent Convertible Security") to any investor on terms that are more favorable to such investor than those set forth in the Lead Investor's SAFE — including, without limitation, a lower valuation cap, the inclusion of a discount rate, more favorable conversion mechanics, or additional investor rights or protections not contained in the Lead Investor's SAFE — then the Lead Investor shall have the right, upon written notice to the Company, to amend the terms of its SAFE to incorporate such more favorable terms (the "MFN Right").
The MFN Right shall apply to:
(a) SAFEs or convertible instruments issued to Co-Investors during this Round, to the extent such instruments contain terms materially different from those of the Lead Investor's SAFE; and
(b) any subsequent SAFE or convertible instrument issued by the Company at any time prior to the closing of the next Equity Financing in which the Lead Investor's SAFE converts.
The Company shall promptly notify the Lead Investor of the issuance of any Subsequent Convertible Security and provide the Lead Investor with a copy of the executed instrument and a summary of the material terms thereof. The Lead Investor shall have fifteen (15) days following receipt of such notice to exercise the MFN Right by delivering written notice to the Company. Upon exercise, the Lead Investor's SAFE shall be deemed amended to incorporate the more favorable terms as of the date of issuance of the Subsequent Convertible Security, without the need for any further action or consent.
6. Pro Rata Rights Side Letter
Concurrently with the execution of the Lead Investor's SAFE, the Company and the Lead Investor shall enter into a side letter (the "Pro Rata Rights Side Letter") pursuant to which the Company shall grant the Lead Investor the right to participate on a pro rata basis in the Company's next equity financing following the conversion of the SAFE (the "Next Equity Financing"). The Lead Investor's pro rata share shall be calculated based on its as-converted ownership percentage of the Company's fully diluted capitalization immediately following the conversion of the SAFE in the applicable Equity Financing.
The pro rata right shall entitle the Lead Investor to purchase, at the same price and on the same terms as other investors in the Next Equity Financing, up to that number of shares necessary to maintain the Lead Investor's percentage ownership of the Company on a fully diluted basis. The pro rata rights granted under the Pro Rata Rights Side Letter shall be subject to customary exceptions, including, without limitation, the following:
(a) issuances of equity securities pursuant to strategic partnerships, joint ventures, licensing arrangements, or similar commercial transactions approved by the Company's Board of Directors;
(b) issuances of debt securities or instruments convertible into equity securities in connection with bona fide lending or credit transactions;
(c) issuances of equity securities or options to employees, directors, consultants, or advisors of the Company pursuant to equity compensation plans approved by the Company's Board of Directors;
(d) issuances of equity securities in connection with a merger, acquisition, or similar business combination approved by the Company's Board of Directors; and
(e) issuances of equity securities as dividends, distributions, or in connection with stock splits, stock dividends, or similar recapitalization events.
The form and substance of the Pro Rata Rights Side Letter shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties and their respective counsel prior to closing.
7. Information Rights
Commencing upon the execution of the Lead Investor's SAFE and continuing until the earlier of (a) the conversion of the SAFE into equity securities of the Company or (b) the consummation of a Liquidity Event, the Company shall provide the Lead Investor with the following information (collectively, the "Information Rights"):
(a) Annual Financial Statements. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of the Company, unaudited financial statements of the Company for such fiscal year, including a balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), applied on a consistent basis, subject to normal year-end adjustments.
(b) Quarterly Financial Summaries. Within forty-five (45) days following the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company (other than the last quarter of each fiscal year), a summary of the Company's key financial metrics for such quarter, including revenue, ending cash position, and operating expenses, presented in a format reasonably determined by the Company's management.
(c) Material Adverse Event Notices. Prompt written notice of any material adverse event affecting the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or product development, including, without limitation, any pending or threatened litigation, regulatory proceedings, loss of key personnel, significant customer terminations, or cybersecurity incidents, in each case to the extent the Company reasonably determines such event to be material.
The Information Rights are personal to the Lead Investor and may not be assigned or transferred without the prior written consent of the Company, except to an affiliate of the Lead Investor. The Company's obligation to provide information under this Section 7 shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) the conversion of the Lead Investor's SAFE into equity securities of the Company (at which time the Lead Investor's information rights shall be governed by the terms of the applicable equity financing documents) or (b) the consummation of a Liquidity Event.

No binding obligation of any party with respect to the financing described herein shall arise until the execution and delivery of the definitive SAFE instrument and all related ancillary documents by all parties thereto.
