We investigate gravitational lensing effects of an extrasolar planet transiting its host star. We focus on the `rising spikes' of the light curve just before and after the transit, which is a peculiar feature of the gravitational lensing, and find that it could be a novel observable for determining physical parameters. Detectability of such an effect is also discussed.

    Self-lensing of a moving GW chirp by an orbiting black hole yields a curve width and interference beats that together give the orbital distance and the black hole mass.
