Subject to provisions of law, from and after the date of issuance, the holders of record of shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, to be paid either in cash or in shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock in the discretion of the Board of Directors, which shall be payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of assets which are legally available for the payment of such dividends, including any special dividends declared by the Board of Directors as well as ordinary dividends, at an annual rate of 8% of the Series B Liquidation Value (as defined below) per share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (which amount shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there shall occur a stock dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event), provided that such dividends shall not be currently payable and shall only be payable when and if specifically provided herein. Such dividends shall also be paid upon a liquidation or redemption of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 or Section 6. Dividends shall be cumulative, without compounding, and shall accrue daily on each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock from the date of issue thereof.

Upon the conversion of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock of the Corporation, all cumulative dividends with respect to such converted shares which have not been declared by the Board of Directors shall be cancelled.”
