(i)           authorizes or pays any dividend or other distribution with respect to the Series A Preferred or Common Stock;

5.           Optional Conversion.  Subject to Section 7, the holders of Series C Preferred shall have conversion rights as follows:
 

 
 

 

(a)           Series C Preferred Right to Convert; Determination of Conversion Value.
 
(i)           At the option of the holder or holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series C Preferred, all (but not less than all) shares of Series C Preferred may be converted, at any time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holders thereof, into such aggregate number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing (i) the Conversion Value (as defined below), by (ii) the Series C Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”).  The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series C Preferred are convertible are referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares.”   The “Series C Conversion Price” shall initially be $0.10.  Such Series C Conversion Price, and the rate at which shares of Series C Preferred may be converted into shares of Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment as provided below.  Each share of Series C Preferred shall be converted into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is equal to the Conversion Shares divided by the total number of shares of Series C Preferred issued and outstanding on the Series C Original Issue Date.
 
(ii)          The Conversion Value will be determined pursuant to the Agreement With Respect to Conversion, dated as of the Series C Original Issue Date, by and among the Corporation and Beacon Capital Strategies, Inc. (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Determination Agreement”), and shall thereafter be fixed.  Such determination of the Conversion Value shall be made following the earlier to occur of (A) the Conversion Date (as defined below), (B) the last day of any month during the thirty (30) month period following the Series C Original Issue Date on which Gross Revenues (as defined in the Determination Agreement) equals at least $3,300,000, (C) written notice from the holder or holder(s) of a majority of the Series C Preferred to the Corporation that they desire to determine the Conversion Value, (D) the first day following the end of the thirtieth full month following the Series C Original Issue Date, and (E) the date immediately preceding the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (including, without limitation, a deemed liquidation pursuant to Section 3(c)) (collectively, the “Determination Trigger Date”).  As used herein, the term “Conversion Value” means the Conversion Value determined pursuant to the Determination Agreement; and the term “Determination Date” means the date on which the Conversion Value is finally determined pursuant to the Determination Agreement.
 
(b)           Fractional Shares.  When calculating the number of shares of Common Stock into which shares of Series C Preferred shall be converted, the Corporation shall calculate to the largest whole share of Common Stock rounding down for any fractional shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series C Preferred would otherwise convert.  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion.  In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay the holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective applicable Series C Conversion Price.  The determination as to whether or not to make any cash payment in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares shall be based upon the total number of shares of Series C Preferred being converted at any one time by a holder thereof, not upon each share of Series C Preferred being converted.
 
(c)           Mechanics of Conversion.
 
(i)           In order for the holder or holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series C Preferred (the “Majority Holder(s)”) to convert the shares of Series C Preferred pursuant to this Section 5, such holder(s) shall surrender the certificate or certificates for
 

 
 

 

their shares of Series C Preferred (or, if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) at the office of the transfer agent for the Series C Preferred (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder(s) elect to convert all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred.  The date of such surrender and delivery of written notice shall be the “Conversion Date” hereunder.  Such notice shall state such holder(s)’s name(s) or the names of the nominees in which such holder(s) wish the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued.  If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly authorized in writing.  5:00 PM local time on the date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) shall be the conversion time (the “Conversion Time”).  As soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, the Corporation shall send all holders of record of shares of Series C Preferred written notice of the conversion of the Series C Preferred pursuant to this Section 5.  Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of shares of Series C Preferred (other than the Majority Holders) shall surrender his, her or its certificate or certificates for all such shares (or, if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice.  If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing.  All rights with respect to the Series C Preferred converted pursuant to this Section 5, including the rights, if any, to receive notices (other than notices required by this Section 5(c)(i)) and vote, will terminate at the Conversion Time (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender the certificates at or prior to such time), except for the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) therefor, to receive the items provided for in the next sentence.  As soon as practicable after the Conversion Time and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Series C Preferred, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with cash, as provided in Section 5(c), in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion.  Such converted Series C Preferred shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock accordingly.
 
(ii)           From and after the date that the Charter Amendment (as defined in Section 7) becomes effective under the DGCL, the Corporation shall at all times when the Series C Preferred shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Series C Preferred, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series C Preferred.  Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the applicable Series C Conversion Price below the then par value of the capital stock issuable upon conversion, the Corporation will take any corporate action which may
 

 
 

 

be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
 
(iii)           Upon any conversion, no adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price shall be made for any accrued or declared but unpaid dividends on Series C Preferred surrendered for conversion or on the Common Stock delivered upon conversion.  If any such dividends exist at the time of conversion, they shall be cancelled.
 
(iv)           Any shares of Series C Preferred so converted shall be automatically retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of Series C Preferred, and shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series, and the Corporation (without the need for stockholder action) may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series C Preferred accordingly or to eliminate the designation of the Series C Preferred.
 
(v)            The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series C Preferred pursuant to this Section 5. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares of Series C Preferred so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid.
 
(d)           Adjustments to Series C Conversion Price for Diluting Issues.
 
(i)           Special Definitions.  For purposes of this Section 5 and elsewhere herein, the following definitions shall apply:
 
(1)           “Oak Designee” has the meaning given to it in the Series D Stockholders’ Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2011, among the Corporation and the stockholders party thereto.
 
(2)           “Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities.
 
(3)           “Series C Original Issue Date” shall mean the date on which the first share of Series C Preferred was issued.
 
(4)           “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, but excluding Options.

(D)           shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities actually issued upon the exercise of Options (including, without limitation, Options outstanding as of the Series C Original Issue Date) or shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities (including, without limitation, Convertible Securities outstanding as of the Series C Original Issue Date), in each case provided such issuance is pursuant to the terms of such Option or Convertible Security; or
 
(E)           shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued (i) to suppliers, third party service providers or strategic partners in connection with the provision of goods or services or commercial transaction, or (ii) in connection with sponsored research, collaboration, technology licensing, technology development, marketing, or strategic partnerships or relationships, in each case, as approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, including the Oak Designee or Series D Designee (if any).
 
(ii)           No Adjustment of Series C Conversion Price.  No adjustment in the Series C Conversion Price shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock if the Corporation receives written notice from the holders of at least 67% of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred, voting as a single class, agreeing that no such adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.
 
(iii)           Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock.
 
(1)           If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series C Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of
 

 
 

 

such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.
 
(2)           If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5(d)(iv), are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the Series C Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Series C Conversion Price as would have been obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this Section 5(d)(iii)(2) shall have the effect of increasing the Series C Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security, or (ii) the Series C Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.
 
(3)           If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5(d)(iii)(2) (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 5(d)(v)) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the Series C Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the Series C Original Issue Date), are revised after the Series C Original Issue Date as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Section 5(d)(iii)(2)) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.
 
(4)           Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5(d)(iv), the Series C Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Series C Conversion Price as would have been obtained had such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) never been issued.
 

 
 

 

(5)           If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price provided for in this Section 5(d)(iii) shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in clauses (2) and (3) of this Section 5(d)(iii).  If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price that would result under the terms of this Section 5(d)(iii) at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.
 
(iv)           Adjustment of Series C Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.  In the event the Corporation shall issue, at any time after the Series C Original Issue Date until the date that is eighteen months after the Series C Original Issue Date (the “Anti-Dilution Period”), Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 5(d)(iii)), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Series C Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
 
CP2 = CP1*  (A + B) ÷ (A + C).
 
For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:
 
(A)           “CP2” shall mean the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;
 
(B)           “CP1” shall mean the Series C Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock;
 
(C)           “A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Options outstanding immediately prior to such issue or upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities (including the Series C Preferred) outstanding (assuming exercise of any outstanding Options therefor) immediately prior to such issue);
 
(D)           “B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation in respect of such issue by CP1); and
 

 
 

 


 
(E)           “C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.
 
Upon the expiration of the Anti-Dilution Period, this Section 5(d) shall expire and no adjustment to the Series C Conversion price shall be made pursuant to the terms of this Section 5(d); provided that any subsequent adjustment contemplated by Sections 5(d)(iii)(2) or (4) or 5(d)(v)(3) shall nevertheless be made.
 
(v)           Determination of Consideration.  For purposes of this Section 5(d), the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:
 
(1)           Cash and Property:  Such consideration shall:
 
(A)           insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Corporation, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest;
 
(B)           insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (including the Series D Designee (if any)); and
 
(C)            in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (A) and (B) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (including the Series D Designee, if any).
 
(2)           Options and Convertible Securities.  The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 5(d)(iii), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing
 
(A)           the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by
 
(B)           the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
 
(3)           Multiple Closing Dates.  In the event the Corporation shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or
 

 
 

 

a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Section 5(d)(iv), and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than 90 days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, the Series C Conversion Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period).
 
(e)           Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series C Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Series C Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series C Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares Common Stock, the Series C Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased.  Any adjustment under this Section 5(e) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
 
(f)           Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions.  In the event the Corporation at any time, or from time to time after the Series C Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Series C Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Series C Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Series C Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Series C Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 5(f) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and provided further, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series C Preferred simultaneously receive an identical dividend or distribution in shares of Common Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that they would have received if all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such event.
 
(g)           Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions.  In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series C Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series C Preferred shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Corporation that they would have received had the Series C Preferred been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 5(g); and provided further, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series C Preferred simultaneously receive a dividend
 

 
 

 

or other distribution of such securities in an amount equal to the amount of such securities that they would have received if all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such event.
 
(h)           Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, Merger or Substitution.  If the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Series C Preferred shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above), then and in each such event the holder of each such share of Series C Preferred shall thereafter be convertible (in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was previously convertible) into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable, upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series C Preferred might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
 
6.           Mandatory Conversion.  After the Determination Date, subject to Section 7, in the event that (a) shares of Common Stock are listed on a national securities exchange and trade with a closing price of at least 200% of the Series C Conversion Price then in effect for a period of 180 consecutive trading days on average trading volume of not less than 250,000 shares per day over the subject 180-day trading period (as adjusted ratably for stock splits, reclassifications and other like kind events affecting the Common Stock) and (b) the Common Stock has an aggregate market value of at least $40,000,000 as of the last day of such 20-trading day period, each outstanding share of Series C Preferred shall automatically be converted into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is equal to the Conversion Shares divided by the total number of shares of Series C Preferred issued and outstanding on the Series C Original Issue Date.  All certificates evidencing shares of Series C Preferred shall, from and after the Mandatory Conversion, be deemed to have been retired and cancelled and the shares of Series C Preferred represented thereby converted into Common Stock, as applicable, for all purposes, notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender such certificates on or prior to such date.  All rights with respect to the Series C Preferred converted pursuant to this Section 6 will terminate immediately upon the triggering of an automatic conversion pursuant to this Section 6, except the right to receive the securities issuable upon conversion.  Such converted Series C Preferred may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series C Preferred accordingly.  All holders of record of shares of Series C Preferred shall be sent written notice of the Mandatory Conversion and the place designated for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Series C Preferred pursuant to this Section 6.  Such notice need not be sent in advance of the occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion.  Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of shares of Series C Preferred shall surrender his, her or its certificate or certificates for all such shares (or, if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice.  If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing.  As soon as practicable after the Mandatory Conversion and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Series C Preferred, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of
 

 
 

 

Common Stock issuable on such conversion, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion.  Any accrued but unpaid dividends on the converted shares of Series C Preferred shall be cancelled, and no adjustment to the Series C Conversion Price shall be made for any such dividends.
 
7.           Limitation of Conversion Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 5 and 6, the Series C Preferred shall not be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof pursuant to Section 5 or automatically pursuant to Section 6, into shares of Common Stock unless and until the Corporation adopts and files with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation that increases the authorized Common Stock to at least 1,000,000,000 shares (the “Charter Amendment”) and the Charter Amendment becomes effective under the DGCL.
 
8.           Fractional Shares.  Series C Preferred may be issued in fractions of a share that shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights (if any), receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series C Preferred.
 
9.           Notices of Record Date.  In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series C Preferred, at least five (5) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the anticipated amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations may be waived prospectively or retrospectively by holders of shares of Series C Preferred representing at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred.
 
10.         Notices.  Any notice required by the provisions of this Certificate to be given to the holders of Series C Preferred shall be deemed to have been sufficiently received (except as otherwise provided herein) (a) upon receipt when personally delivered, (b) one (1) day after being sent by overnight delivery or facsimile providing confirmation or receipt of delivery, or (c) three (3) days after being sent by certified or registered mail, postage and charges prepaid, return receipt requested, and addressed to each holder of record at such holder’s address appearing on the books of the Corporation.
 
11.         Waiver.  Any of the rights, powers, preferences and other terms of the Series C Preferred set forth herein may be waived (including a partial waiver) on behalf of all holders of Series C Preferred by the affirmative written consent or vote of the holders of at least 67% of the shares of Series C Preferred then outstanding.
