Mr. Carlson was issued 602 shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock in-kind effective on January 6, 2020, in lieu of $939.12 of dividends which accrued on Series B1 Preferred Stock shares held by Mr. Carlson for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The terms of the Series B1 Preferred Stock are described in greater detail in the Current Report filed by the Issuer on May 13, 2016. Exempt from Section 16(b) pursuant to Rule 16b-3(d).
The Series B1 Preferred Stock (including accrued and unpaid dividends) is convertible into shares of the Issuer's common stock at the holder's option at any time at the Unit Price (initially a one-for-one basis). If the Issuer's common stock trades at or above $3.90 per share (250% of the Unit Price) for a period of 20 consecutive trading days, the Issuer may at such time force conversion of the Series B1 Preferred Stock (including accrued and unpaid dividends) into common stock of the Issuer.
The Series B1 Preferred Stock has no expiration date; however, the Issuer has the option to redeem the Series B1 Preferred Stock at 110% of the Unit Price ($1.56) plus any accrued and unpaid dividends on such Series B1 Preferred Stock redeemed, at any time after June 20, 2017 and the Issuer is required to redeem the Series B1 Preferred Stock, subject to applicable law and the terms of the Series B1 Preferred Stock, at the Unit Price plus any accrued and unpaid dividends on June 24, 2020.
