The investment from Savitr would be in the form of common stock at $0.45 per share, representing 90 percent of the Cambridge, Mass.-based MIPs common stock. The Savitr investment also provides for a 30-day period during which the company is permitted to solicit other inquiries, proposals and bids from third parties who desire to propose an alternative transaction to the one proposed by Savitr.
