(iv)  Redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of Series C Preferred except as expressly authorized in paragraph 3 or 6 hereof or pursuant to a purchase offer made pro rata to all holders of the shares of Series C Preferred on the basis of the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Series C Preferred then held by each such holder;

(iv) Subject to the terms and conditions of this paragraph 5, the holder of any share or shares of Series C Preferred shall have the right, at its option at any time, to convert any such shares of Series C Preferred (except that upon any liquidation of the Corporation the right of conversion shall terminate at the close of business on the business day fixed for payment of the amount distributable on the Series C Preferred) into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is obtained by (i) multiplying the number of shares of Series C Preferred so to be converted by $1.19 and (ii) dividing the result by the conversion price of $0.99167 per share or, in case an adjustment of such price has taken place pursuant to the further provisions of this paragraph 5, then by the conversion price as last adjusted and in effect at the date any share or shares of Series C Preferred are surrendered for conversion (such price, or such price as last adjusted, being referred to as the “Series C Conversion Price”).

 

(v)  Such rights of conversion shall be exercised by the holder thereof by giving written notice that the holder elects to convert a stated number of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred into Common Stock and by surrender of a certificate or certificates for the shares so to be converted to the Corporation at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Corporation as the Corporation may designate by notice in writing to the holders of the Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred as applicable) at any time during its usual business hours on the date set forth in such notice, together with a statement of the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issued.

(b)           Issuance of Certificates; Time Conversion Effected.  Promptly after the receipt of the written notice referred to in subparagraph 5(a)(iv) and surrender of the certificate or certificates for the share or shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred to be converted, the Corporation shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the holder, registered in such name or names as such holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such share or shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred as the case may be.  To the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected and the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price, or the Series C Conversion Price, as the case may be, shall be determined as of the close of business on the date on which such written notice shall have been received by the Corporation and the certificate or certificates for such share or shares shall have been surrendered as aforesaid, and at such time the rights of the holder of such share or shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred as applicable, shall cease, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby.

 

(c)           Fractional Shares; Dividends; Partial Conversion.  No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of Preferred Stock into Common Stock and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any cash dividends on the Common Stock issued upon such conversion. At the time of each conversion, the Corporation shall pay in cash an amount equal to all dividends declared and unpaid on the shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred, as the case may be, surrendered for conversion to the date upon which such conversion is deemed to take place as provided in subparagraph 5(b).  In case the number of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered pursuant to subparagraph 5(a) exceeds the number of shares converted, the Corporation shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the holder, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred, as the case may be, represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered which are not to be converted. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this subparagraph 5(c), be delivered upon such conversion, the Corporation, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the holder surrendering the Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred for conversion an amount in cash equal to the current market price of such fractional share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

 

(d)           Adjustment of Price Upon Issuance of Common Stock.  Except as provided in subparagraph 5(e), if and whenever the Corporation shall, after the date hereof, issue or sell, or is, in accordance with subparagraphs 5(d)(1) through 5(d)(7), deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then, forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, shall be reduced to the price determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the sum of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the then existing per share Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, and (b) the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation upon such issue or sale,

 

12


 

by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale.

 

For purposes of this subparagraph 5(d), the following subparagraphs 5d(1) to 5d(7) shall also be applicable:

 

(d)(1) Issuance of Rights or Options.  In case at any time the Corporation shall in any manner grant (whether directly or by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, Common Stock or any stock or security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such warrants, rights or options being called “Options” and such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being called “Convertible Securities”) whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of all such Options, plus, in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities and upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options) shall be less than the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of granting of such Options or the issuance of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding.  Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph 5(d)(3), no adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

(d)(2) Issuance of Convertible Securities.  In case the Corporation shall in any manner issue (whether directly or by assumption in a merger or otherwise) or sell any Convertible Securities, whether or not the rights to exchange or convert any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange (determined by dividing (i) the total amount received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued for such price per share as of the date of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding, provided that (a) except as otherwise provided in subparagraph 5(d)(3), no adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion

 

13



 

Price, Series C Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and (b) if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price have been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this subparagraph 5(d), no further adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series  C Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.

 

(d)(3) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. Upon the happening of any of the following events, namely, if the purchase price provided for in any Option referred to in subparagraph 5(d)(1), the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in subparagraph 5(d)(1) or 5(d)(2), or the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in subparagraph 5(d)(1) or 5(d)(2) are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time (including, but not limited to, changes under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price in effect at the time of such event shall forthwith be readjusted to the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional consideration or conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold, but only if as a result of such adjustment the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price then in effect hereunder is thereby reduced; and on the termination of any such Option or any such right to convert or exchange such Convertible Securities, the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price then in effect hereunder shall forthwith be increased to the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as applicable, which would have been in effect at the time of such termination had such Option or Convertible Securities, to the extent outstanding immediately prior to such termination, never been issued.

 

(d)(4) Stock Dividends. In case the Corporation shall declare a dividend or make any other distribution upon any stock of the Corporation (other than the Common Stock) payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then any Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution shall be deemed to have been issued or sold without consideration.

 

(d)(5) Consideration for Stock.  In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Corporation therefor, without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Corporation in connection therewith.  In case any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities shall be issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Corporation shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, without deduction of any expenses incurred or any underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Corporation in connection therewith.  In case any Options shall be issued in connection with the issue and sale of other securities of the Corporation, together comprising one integral transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties

 

14



 

thereto, such Options shall be deemed to have been issued for such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

 

(d)(6) Record Date. In case the Corporation shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

 

(d)(7) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Corporation, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this subparagraph 5(d).

 

(e)           Certain Issues of Common Stock Excepted. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Corporation shall not be required to make any adjustment to the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price or Series C Conversion Price, in the case of any securities issued from and after the date of filing of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (1) upon conversion of any shares of the Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred, (2) solely in consideration for the acquisition (whether by merger or otherwise) by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of any other entity as long as the issuance is approved by the Board of Directors, which approval includes the approval of both (A)at least one of the Series A Directors and  (B) the Series B/C Director and such issuance is for other than primarily equity financing purposes, (3) pursuant to a Qualified Offering as defined in subparagraph 5(n), (4) up to an aggregate of 26,567,203 shares (appropriately adjusted to reflect the occurrence of any event described in subparagraph 5(f)), or such greater number of shares as may be approved from time to time by the Board of Directors, which approval includes the approval of both (A) at least one of the Series A Directors and (B) the Series B/C Director, of Common Stock to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Corporation in connection with their service as directors of the Corporation, their employment by the Corporation or their retention as consultants by the Corporation, plus such number of shares of Common Stock which are repurchased by the Corporation from such persons after such date pursuant to contractual rights held by the Corporation, (5) to financial institutions, lenders or lessors in connection with lease liens, equipment financings or other loans so long as the issuance is approved by the Board of Directors, which approval includes the approval of both (A) at least one of the Series A Directors and (B) the Series B/C Director and such issuance is for other than primarily equity financing purposes, (6) to vendors, trade partners, service providers, or in connection with strategic relationships so long as the issuance is approved by the Board of Directors, which approval includes the approval of both (A) at least one of the Series A Directors and  (B) the Series B/C Director and such issuance is for other than primarily equity financing purposes, and (7) upon issuance of shares of Series C Preferred.

 

(f)            Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  In case the Corporation shall at any time subdivide (by any stock split, stock dividend or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, the Series B Conversion Price, and the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely, in case the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the

 

15



 

Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price and Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. In the case of any such subdivision, no further adjustment shall be made pursuant to subparagraph 5(d)(4) by reason thereof.

 

(g)           Reorganization or Reclassification.  If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization or reclassification, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby each holder of a share or shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred shall thereupon have the right to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of such share or shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon such conversion had such reorganization or reclassification not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustments of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights.

 

(h)           Notice of Adjustment.  Upon any adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as the case may be, then and in each such case the Corporation shall give written notice thereof, by delivery in person, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, telecopier or telex, addressed to each holder of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred at the address of such holder as shown on the books of the Corporation, which notice shall state the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price, as the case may be, resulting from such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such calculation is based.

(1)           the Corporation shall declare any dividend upon its Common Stock payable in cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock;

 

(2)           the Corporation shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights;

(j)            Stock to be Reserved.  The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of Preferred Stock as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock.  The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation covenants that it will from time to time take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, and Series C Conversion Price in effect at the time. The Corporation will take all such action as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirement of any national securities exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed.  The Corporation will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Series A Conversion Price, Series A-2 Conversion Price, Series B Conversion Price, or Series C Conversion Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable after such action upon conversion of the Preferred Stock would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

 

(k)           No Reissuance of Preferred Stock.  Shares of Preferred Stock which are converted into shares of Common Stock as provided herein shall not be reissued.

 

(l)            Issue Tax.  The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred which is being converted.

 

(m)          Closing of Books.  The Corporation will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of any Preferred Stock or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock in any manner which interferes with the

 

17



 

timely conversion of such Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, or Series C Preferred, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable securities laws.

 

(n)           Mandatory Conversion.  If at any time the Corporation shall effect a firm commitment underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock in which (i) the aggregate price paid for such shares by the public shall be at least $30,000,000 and (ii) the price paid by the public for such shares shall be at least $3.57 per share (appropriately adjusted to reflect the occurrence of any event described in subparagraph 5(f) (a “Qualified Offering”)), then effective upon the closing of the sale of such shares by the Corporation pursuant to such public offering, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred shall automatically convert to shares of Common Stock on the basis set forth in this paragraph 5.  Holders of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred so converted may deliver to the Corporation at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Corporation as the Corporation may designate by notice in writing to such holders) during its usual business hours, the certificate or certificates for the shares so converted.  As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with any cash dividends and payment in lieu of fractional shares to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to subparagraph 5(c).  Until such time as a holder of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred shall surrender his or its certificates therefor as provided above, such certificates shall be deemed to represent the shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled upon the surrender thereof.

 

(o)           No Impairment.  The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, unless it (and the Corporation will) at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of this Section 5 and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of Preferred Stock against impairment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5(o) shall prohibit the Corporation from amending its Certificate of Incorporation with the requisite consent of its stockholders (including, without limitation, as required by Section 4 above) and the board of directors.

 

(p)           Minimum Adjustment.  No adjustment in the Conversion Price of any series of Preferred Stock need be made in such adjustment would result in a change of the Conversion Price of less than $0.01.  Any adjustment of less than $0.01 which is not made shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, on a cumulative basis, amounts to an adjustment of $0.01 or more in such Conversion Price.  All calculations made under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a share, as the case may be.

 

(q)           Waiver of Adjustment of Conversion Price. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any downward adjustment of the Conversion Price of any series of Preferred Stock may be waived by the consent or vote of the holders of, in the case of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock at least 50%, in the case of Series B Preferred Stock at least 66 2/3%, and in the case of Series C Preferred Stock at least 70% of the outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock either before or after the issuance causing such adjustment.

6.             Redemption.  The outstanding shares of (1) Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred shall, with the prior written consent of the holders of not less than 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred, be redeemed at the written request of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred Stock voting together as a single class, or (2) Series C Preferred Stock shall be redeemed at the written request of the holders of not less than 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred (any such request, a “Redemption Election”), as provided herein, provided that the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock has not occurred prior to the Series C Redemption Date (as defined below), in the case of the redemption of Series C Preferred Stock, and the conversion of the Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred Stock has not occurred by the Initial Permitted Redemption Date (as defined below), in the case of the redemption of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred Stock.

 

(a)           Option of Holders of Series C Preferred. If the Company has received a Redemption Election for the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock at any time on or after June 26, 2010 (the “Permitted Series C Redemption Date”), the Corporation shall redeem all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred on the first date such redemption is required (the “Series C Redemption Date”).

 

(b)           Option of Holders.  If the Company has received a Redemption Election at any time on or after June 26, 2011 (the “Initial Permitted Redemption Date”), the Corporation shall redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred, provided that, at the Company’s option, it may elect to redeem such Preferred Stock in three equal installments on the first date such redemption is required (an “Initial Redemption Date”) and each of the next two anniversaries thereof (each, together with the Series C Redemption Date and the Initial Redemption Date with respect thereto, a “Redemption Date”).

 

(c)           Redemption Price and Payment.  The shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred to be redeemed on any Redemption Date shall be redeemed by paying for each share of Series A Preferred in cash an amount equal to $0.60, for each share of Series A-2 Preferred in cash an amount equal to $0.86 per share, for each share of Series B Preferred in cash an amount equal to $0.60 per share, and for each share of Series C Preferred in cash an amount equal to $1.19 per share, plus, (i) in the case of each Series A Preferred share, an amount equal to all Series A Accruing Dividends unpaid thereon (whether or not declared), and any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon, computed to such Redemption Date, (ii) in the case of each Series A-2 Preferred share, an amount equal to all Series A-2 Accruing Dividends unpaid thereon (whether or not declared), and any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon, computed to such Redemption Date, (iii) in the case of each Series B Preferred share, an amount equal to all Series B Accruing Dividends unpaid thereon (whether or not declared), and any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon, computed to such Redemption Date, and (iv) in the case of each Series C Preferred share, an amount equal to all Series C Accruing Dividends unpaid thereon (whether or not declared), and any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon, computed to such Redemption Date.  Such payment shall be made in full on the applicable Redemption Date to the holders entitled thereto.

 

(d)           Redemption Mechanics.  At least 20 but not more than 30 days prior to the Permitted Series C Redemption Date and the Initial Permitted Redemption Date, written notice (the “Redemption Notice”) shall be given by the Corporation by delivery in person, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, telecopier or telex, to each holder of record (at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the Redemption Notice is given) of shares of Series C Preferred, in the case of the Permitted Series C Redemption Date, and the

 

19



 

Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred, in the case of the Initial Permitted Redemption Date, notifying such holder of: (i) the redemption and specifying the Redemption Price, (ii) the Permitted Series C Redemption Date and the Initial Permitted Redemption Date, as applicable, (iii) in the case of the Initial Permitted Redemption Date, whether the Corporation will, if a redemption is requested, elect to redeem in three installments as contemplated in paragraph 6(a), the number of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred which could be redeemed from such holder thereon (computed on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of such shares held by all holders thereof), and (iv) the place where said Redemption Price shall be payable.  The Redemption Notice shall be addressed to each holder at his address as shown by the records of the Corporation.  The holders of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred, if electing to redeem, shall transmit a Redemption Election to the Corporation. The Corporation shall deliver a Redemption Notice at least 10 but not more than 20 days prior to each Redemption Date, to each holder of Series C Preferred Stock, in the case of the Series C Redemption Date, and to each holder of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred, in the case of the Initial Permitted Redemption Date and each anniversary Redemption Date thereof.  The Series C Redemption Date shall be the date 30 days following the receipt by the Corporation of the Redemption Election relating to such redemption.  The Initial Redemption Date with respect to a redemption of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, and Series B Preferred hereunder (other than the Initial Permitted Redemption Date, if applicable) shall be the date 30 days following the receipt by the Corporation of the Redemption Election relating to such redemption, and each subsequent Redemption Date with respect to such redemption, if applicable, shall be the anniversary of the previous Redemption Date.  If a Redemption Election has been delivered, from and after the close of business on each Redemption Date relating to such Redemption Election, unless there shall have been a default in the payment of the Redemption Price, all rights of holders of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred (except the right to receive the Redemption Price) shall cease with respect to the shares redeemed on such Redemption Date, and such shares shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of the Corporation or be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred on a Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred requested to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, (1) first, the holders of Series C Preferred shall share ratably in any funds legally available for redemption of such shares until all such shares are redeemed and (2) then, after the total number of shares of Series C Preferred requested to be redeemed on such Redemption Date are so redeemed, the holders of such other shares shall share ratably in any funds legally available for redemption of such shares according to the respective amounts which would be payable to them if the full number of shares to be redeemed on such Redemption Date were actually redeemed.  The shares of Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred required to be redeemed but not so redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of such shares of  Series A Preferred, Series A-2 Preferred, Series B Preferred, and Series C Preferred, such funds will be used, at the end of the next succeeding fiscal quarter, to redeem the balance of such shares, or such portion thereof for which funds are then legally available, on the basis set forth above.

 

(e)           Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Shares to be Retired. Any shares of Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this paragraph 6 or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be cancelled and shall not under any circumstances be reissued; and the

Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate corporate action as may be necessary to reduce accordingly the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock.
