If the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment in full to such holders of the sums which such holders are entitled to receive in such case, then all of the assets available for distribution to holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be distributed among and paid to such holders ratably in proportion to the amounts that would be payable to such holders if such assets were sufficient to permit payment in full.

 

(b) After the Holders of all series of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full the amounts to which they are entitled in paragraph 5(a), the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be distributed among the Holders of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock as if it had been converted to Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designations immediately prior to such Liquidation.

 

Section 6. Conversion.

 

(a) Conversions at Option of Holder. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date.

 

(b) Mandatory Conversion. On the sooner to occur of (i) three years from the Effective Date or (ii) the effective date set forth in the Company Conversion Notice (each of the foregoing, a “Mandatory Conversion Date”), each outstanding share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price in effect on the Mandatory Conversion Date (a “Mandatory Conversion”). Within three Trading Days of (i) the Mandatory Conversion Date, if the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are uncertificated, or (ii) such Holder’s surrender of the certificate representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and an indemnity bond in a form acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent, or if the Company acts as its own transfer agent, an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), the Company shall deliver to each Holder the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, provided that, any failure by the Holder to return a certificate for Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will have no effect on the Mandatory Conversion pursuant to this Section 6(b), which Mandatory Conversion will be deemed to occur on the Mandatory Conversion Date.

 

  -5 
 

 

(c) Conversion Shares. The number of Conversion Shares which the Company shall issue upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (whether pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b)) will be equal to the number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to be converted, multiplied by the Stated Value, divided by the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the conversion.

 

(d) Mechanics of Conversion

 

(i) Notice of Conversion at the Option of Holder. In order for a Holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall (a) provide written notice (“Notice of Conversion”) to the Company’s transfer agent at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) that such Holder elects to convert all or any number of such holder’s shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (b), if such Holder’s shares are certificated, surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and an indemnity bond in a form acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent, or if the Company acts as its own transfer agent, an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company against any claim that may be made against the Company on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent). Such notice shall state such Holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such Holder wishes the shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Company, any certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the registered holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Company if the Company serves as its own transfer agent) of such notice and, if applicable, certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) shall be the date of conversion (the “Conversion Date”), and the Conversion Shares, if any, issuable upon conversion of the specified shares shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date.

 

(e) Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three Trading Days after each Conversion Date, the Company shall issue and deliver to such holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Conversion Shares, if any, issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Common Stock. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the applicable Holder shall be entitled to pursue such legal remedies for the default as may be available.

 

(i) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as are issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

  -6 
 

 

(ii) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of or as dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase or be issued upon such conversion, the Company shall round up to the next whole share of Common Stock.

 

Section 7. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any other Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, will not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of this Series A Convertible Preferred Stock); (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (C) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (D) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price will be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator will be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator will be the number of shares of Common Stock, or in the event that clause (D) of this Section 7(a) will apply shares of reclassified capital stock, outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7(a) will become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and will become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

(b) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, or (C) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Holders shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall adjust the Conversion Price in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holders shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration they receive upon any conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holders’ right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 7(b) and insuring that the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

  -7 
 

 

(c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 will be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

 

(d) Notice to the Holders. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

Section 8. Royalty Payment Rights. The Holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have the royalty payment rights (the “Royalty Payment Rights”), as set forth in and subject to the terms and conditions in this Certificate of Designations, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay the holder of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock a royalty. Upon the Mandatory Conversion Date, any Holder of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will no longer be entitled to Royalty Payment Rights by virtue of owning shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and instead the Company shall issue to each Holder a Royalty Payment Rights certificate, evidencing such Royalty Payment Rights, which certificate shall contain in all material respects the Royalty Payment Rights set forth herein.

If a Holder elects to convert all of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock, pursuant to Section 6(a) herein, prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Holder will forfeit any and all rights to future Royalty Payment Rights, if any. If a Holder elects to convert a portion but not all of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock at any time prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, such Holder will forfeit any rights to future Royalty Payment Rights, if any, with respect to such converted shares.

Upon the three year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company will issue a certificate representing the Royalty Payment Rights to each Holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at such date. Such Royalty Payment Rights certificate shall set forth the applicable percentage of any Royalty Amounts payable by the Company on or after the date of issuance of such Royalty Payment Rights certificate and the other applicable terms for such Royalty Payment Rights. Following the issuance of Royalty Payment Rights certificate, the Holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will not have any Royalty Payment Rights resulting from their ownership of such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the Royalty Payment Rights shall soley be evidenced by the Royalty Payment Rights certificate and may be transferred, subject to the availability of an exemption from registration under applicable state and federal securities laws, separately from the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. For all transfers made prior to the three year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Royalty Payment Rights will follow any transfer of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. If a Holder transfers any of its shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock prior to the three year anniversary of the Effective Date, the transferee of such shares will have thereafter the Royalty Payment Rights related to the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock it receives, and the transferring Holder will thereafter no longer have any Royalty Payment Rights in respect of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock it transferred.

 

(g) Unsecured Obligations. The Royalty Payment Rights are unsecured obligations of the Company.

 

(h) Amendments, Modifications and Waivers. Prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, all modifications, amendments or waivers to the Royalty Payment Rights shall require the written consent of the Company and the Holders of the majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Following the issuance of the Royalty Payment Rights certificate, all modifications, amendments or waivers to the Royalty Payment Rights shall require the written consent of the Company and the holders of Royalty Payment Rights certificates representing, in the aggregate, the right to receive at least 50% of any Royalty Amount payable by the Company.

Any waiver by the Company or a Holder must be in writing.

 

(d) Severability. If any provision of this Certificate of Designation is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate of Designation shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances.
