Keep in mind that unless the existing investors actually sign something agreeing to this, it cant happen. Many likely do sign, because they think that getting big-namebrand-investor onboard is worth the haircut. If they don't want to do it, they don't have to. If the company does it anyways, they would have a slam dunk legal case to reclaim their ownership. Majority shareholders diluting minority shareholders for their own benefit is probably the most common business dispute there is.
