Parent Option. (a) Parent and/or Seller shall have the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 19.9% of the Holdings Common Stock immediately prior to the Closing for a per share purchase price equal to the per share purchase price paid or payable by other stockholders of Holdings on or prior to the Closing Date, provided that if investment partnerships affiliated with KKR shall have invested, as of the Closing Date, in a corporation which wholly-owns Holdings (rather than investing directly in Holdings), references to "Holdings Common Stock" in this Section 11.3, Sections 5.3, 5.7(b) and 9.3 and clause (b) of the definition of "Securities" contained in Section 1.1 shall be deemed to be references to the common stock of such corporation and references to "Holdings" and "New Talegen Holdings Corporation" in Section 9.3 shall be deemed to be references to such corporation. Parent and/or Seller shall pay the aggregate purchase price for any shares to be purchased pursuant to this Section in cash, payable by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account which Buyer shall designate in writing to Parent no less than two business days prior to the Closing Date. To exercise such right, Parent and/or Seller must deliver irrevocable written notice to Buyer within 45 days from the date hereof which indicates the percentage interest (after giving effect to its purchase) of Holdings Common Stock that Parent and/or Seller desire to purchase hereunder, but not to exceed an aggregate of 19.9% (which irrevocable notice shall bind Parent, subject to the last sentence of this Section, to make such purchase on the Closing Date). No such notice shall be effective unless Parent and/or Seller concurrently delivers a notice under Section 11.3 of the TRG Agreement which indicates Parent's and/or Seller's election to purchase the same aggregate percentage interest in the securities covered by the election thereunder that Parent and/or Seller elect to purchase hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1, Parent and Seller shall cease to have the right to purchase Holdings Common Stock hereunder, whether or not their rights had been previously exercised, and any notice which shall have been delivered pursuant to this Section shall be void and of no effect.
