Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 3, the Dividend Rate shall be equal to the Stated Rate. Such dividends shall accrue and accumulate, whether or not earned or declared, on each issued and outstanding share of the Series B Preferred Stock from (and including) the original date of issuance of such share and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last calendar day of each Dividend Period, except for dividends for the Dividend Period ending September 30, 2017, which shall be payable at the end of the next Dividend Period (each such day being hereinafter called a “Dividend Payment Date”); provided that (i) Series B Preferred Stock issued during any Dividend Period after the Dividend Record Date for such Dividend Period shall only begin to accrue dividends on the first day of the next Dividend Period; and provided, further, that (ii) if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the dividend that would otherwise have been payable on such Dividend Payment Date (if declared) may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if paid on such Dividend Payment Date, and no interest or additional dividends or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Dividend Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day. Any dividend payable on the Series B Preferred Stock for any partial Dividend Period shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends shall be payable to holders of record as they appear in the stock records of the Corporation at the close of business on the applicable record date, which shall be the 15^th day of the month in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date occurs, or such other date designated by the Board or an officer of the Corporation duly authorized by the Board for the payment of dividends that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date (each such date, a “Dividend Record Date”).

3 

(b) Upon the occurrence of four accumulated, accrued and unpaid Dividend Defaults, whether consecutive or non-consecutive, then:

(i) the Dividend Rate shall increase to the Penalty Rate for each subsequent Dividend Payment Date thereafter until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in full and has paid accrued dividends for the two most recently completed Dividend Periods in full in a timely manner, at which time the Dividend Rate shall revert to the Stated Rate for cash dividends; and

(ii) until such time as the Dividend Rate reverts to the Stated Rate pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (b), the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have the voting rights and director election rights described in Section 7(a) hereof.

After the Dividend Rate reverts to the Stated Rate pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph (b), the Dividend Rate shall not again increase to the Penalty Rate for cash dividends and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not again have the voting rights and director election rights described in Section 7(a) hereof until the subsequent occurrence of an additional four accumulated, accrued and unpaid Dividend Defaults, whether consecutive or non-consecutive.

(c) No dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock will be declared by the Corporation or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at such time as the terms and provisions of Senior Shares or any agreement of the Corporation, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness, prohibit such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment or provide that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration, payment or setting aside of funds is restricted or prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a Dividend Default may be deemed to occur and dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall continue to accrue and accumulate regardless of whether: (i) any or all of the foregoing restrictions exist; (ii) the Corporation has earnings or profits; (iii) there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends; or (iv) such dividends are authorized by the Board. Accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will accumulate as of the Dividend Payment Date on which they first become payable.

4 

(d) Except as provided in the next sentence, if any Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, no dividends will be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any Parity Shares or Junior Shares, unless all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are contemporaneously declared and paid, or declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment, for all past Dividend Periods with respect to which full dividends were not paid on the Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 3. When dividends are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart for payment) upon the Series B Preferred Stock and upon all Parity Shares, all dividends declared, paid or set apart for payment upon the Series B Preferred Stock and all such Parity Shares shall be declared and paid pro rata or declared and set apart for payment pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Series B Preferred Stock and per share of such Parity Shares shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated dividends per share of Series B Preferred Stock and such other Parity Shares (which shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods if such other Parity Shares do not bear cumulative dividends) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on Series B Preferred Stock which may be in arrears, whether at the Stated Rate or at the Penalty Rate.

(e) Except as provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 3, unless all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are contemporaneously declared and paid, or declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment, for all past Dividend Periods with respect to which full dividends were not paid on the Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 3, no dividends (other than in Common Stock or Junior Shares ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation) may be declared or paid or set apart for payment upon the Common Stock or any Junior Shares or Parity Shares, nor shall any Common Stock or any Junior Shares or Parity Shares be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly for any consideration (or any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such stock) by the Corporation (except by conversion into or exchange for Junior Shares or by redemption, purchase or acquisition of stock under any employee benefit plan of the Corporation).

(f) Holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend in excess of all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock as described in this Section 3. Any dividend payment made on the Series B Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated accrued and unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable at the time of such payment.

Section 4. Liquidation Preference.

(a) Subject to the rights of the holders of Senior Shares and Parity Shares, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Corporation (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of Junior Shares, as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, each holder of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an amount of cash per share of the Series B Preferred Stock equal to the Stated Value plus an amount in cash equal to all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared) to the date of final distribution to such holders. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of Parity Shares as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Shares ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such Series B Preferred Stock and any such other Parity Shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this Section 4, none of (i) a consolidation or merger of the Corporation with one or more corporations or other entities, (ii) a sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Corporation.

5 

(b) Written notice of any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given by first class mail, postage pre-paid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of the Series B Preferred Stock at the respective address of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of the Corporation.

Subject to the rights of the holders of Senior Shares and Parity Shares upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment shall have been made in full to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, as provided in this Section 4, any other series or class or classes of Junior Shares shall, subject to the respective terms and provisions (if any) applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to share therein.

Section 5. Status of Acquired Shares. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of undesignated Preferred Stock of the Corporation.

Section 6. Ranking. Any class or series of shares of stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to rank:

(a) prior to the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock (“Senior Shares”);

(b) on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the dividend rates, dividend payment dates or redemption or liquidation prices per share thereof be different from those of the Series B Preferred Stock, if the holders of such class or series and the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends and of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends per share or liquidation preferences, without preference or priority one over the other (“Parity Shares”); and

6 

(c) junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, as to the payment of dividends and as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such class or series shall be the Common Stock or any other class or series of shares of stock of the Corporation now or hereafter issued and outstanding over which the Series B Preferred Stock have preference or priority in the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (“Junior Shares”).

Section 7. Voting Rights; Director Election Rights.

(a) The Series B Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights, except as set forth in this Section 7. In the circumstances identified in paragraph (b) of Section 3 hereof, the number of directors then constituting the Board shall increase by at least two, if not already increased by reason of similar types of provisions with respect to Parity Shares which are entitled to similar voting rights, and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, together with the holders of shares of every other series of Parity Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (any such other series, the “Voting Preferred Shares”), voting together as a single class regardless of series, shall be entitled to elect two directors. Such directors shall be elected at any annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares called as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 7; in each instance in accordance with the Bylaws. Such voting rights shall continue unless and until terminated as provided in paragraph (b) of Section 3 hereof, whereupon the terms of all persons elected as directors to the Board by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares shall terminate effective immediately and the number of directors constituting the Board shall decrease accordingly.

(b) At any time after the voting power conferred in paragraph (a) of this Section 7 shall have been so vested in the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares, the Secretary of the Corporation may, and upon the written request of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock (addressed to the Secretary at the principal office of the Corporation) shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and of the Voting Preferred Shares for the election of the two directors to be elected by them to the Board as herein provided, such call to be made by notice similar to that provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation for a special meeting of the shareholders or as required by law. If any such special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called by the Secretary within 60 days after receipt of any such request, then any holder of Series B Preferred Stock may call such meeting, upon the notice above provided, and for that purpose shall have access to the share records of the Corporation for the Series B Preferred Stock and Voting Preferred Shares. The directors elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in lieu thereof if such term shall not have previously terminated as above provided. If any vacancy shall occur among the directors elected by holders of Series B Preferred Stock and holders of the Voting Preferred Shares, a successor shall be elected by the Board, upon the nomination of the then-remaining director elected by holders of Series B Preferred Stock and holders of the Voting Preferred Shares or the successor of such remaining director, to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof if such term shall not have previously terminated as above provided.

7 

(c) So long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Voting Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, acting as a single class regardless of series, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating:

(i) Any amendment, alteration or repeal of any of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or this Statement that materially and adversely affects the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares; provided, however, that (A) the amendment of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of, the Series B Preferred Stock or any Parity Shares shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares and (B) the amendment of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of any Junior Shares shall not be deemed to materially or adversely affect the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Voting Preferred Shares;

(ii) A statutory share exchange that affects the Series B Preferred Stock, a consolidation with or merger of the Corporation into another entity, or a consolidation with or merger of another entity into the Corporation, unless in each such case each share of Series B Preferred Stock (A) shall remain outstanding without a material and adverse change to its terms, voting powers, preferences and rights or (B) shall be converted into or exchanged for preferred shares of the surviving entity having preferences, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption thereof identical to that of a share of Series B Preferred Stock (except for changes that do not materially and adversely affect the Series B Preferred Stock);

(iii) The authorization, reclassification or creation of, or the increase in the authorized amount of, any Senior Shares, other Parity Shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Senior Shares or other Parity Shares; or

(iv) an increase to the size of the Board above five (5) directors other than as set forth herein.

For purposes of this Section 7, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have one vote per share, except that when any other series of Voting Preferred Shares shall have the right to vote with the Series B Preferred Stock as a single class on any matter, then the Series B Preferred Stock and such other series shall have with respect to such matters such number of votes equal to the stated liquidation preference thereof divided by the Stated Value. Except as set forth herein, the Series B Preferred Stock shall not have any relative, participating, optional or other special voting rights and powers other than as set forth herein, and the consent of the holders thereof shall not be required for the taking of any corporate action.

8 

No amendment to these terms of the Series B Preferred Stock shall require the vote of the holders of Common Stock (except as required by law) or any series of Preferred Stock other than the Voting Preferred Shares.

Section 8. Information Rights. During any period in which the Corporation is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation shall (a) transmit by mail to all holders of Series B Preferred Stock, as their names and addresses appear in the Corporation’s record books and without cost to such holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports that the Corporation would have been required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Corporation was subject to such sections (other than any exhibits that would have been required); and (b) promptly upon written request, supply copies of such reports to any prospective holder of Series B Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall mail the reports to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock within 15 days after the respective dates by which the Corporation would have been required to file the reports with the SEC if the Corporation were then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, assuming the Corporation is a “non-accelerated filer” in accordance with the Exchange Act.

Section 9. Record Holders. The Corporation and the Transfer Agent shall deem and treat the record holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor the Transfer Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 10. Sinking Fund. The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to the benefits of any retirement or sinking fund.
