Two rounds of convertible debt does not really happen, practically, since debt is the most senior security in a company. An investor doing more debt at a later point would not have much advantage over an investor that did debt in the first place. As a result, there is no premium for coming in earlier, when it is more risky. Early debt holders block issuing more debt, generally.
