Preemptive rights are a clause in an option, security or merger agreement that gives the investor the right to maintain his or her percentage ownership of a company by buying a proportionate number of shares of any future issue of the security.
So if an investor holds 1 share in the stock of X, then he has a right to maintain the same percentage of holding after the new issue.
