If I take $1,000,000 from an investor at a pre-money valuation of $4,000,000 and the convertible note converts in 12 months, with the investment offered at a discount of 20% of the price per share of the new preferred stock sold in the equity financing or a valuation cap of $5,000,000, how much stock does the investor get? If the company has 100 shares, would the investor get 25 shares because their investment was based on $4M pre-money, or 20 shares because the post-money valuation was $5M, or something else?
