(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if more than one Series A Holder has the same Sale Percentage for purposes of clauses (ii) or (iii) above, the Series A

Holder that holds the least principal amount of Notes (as compared to such other Series A Holder(s)) shall be deemed to have the greatest Sale Percentage.
(b) Only the applicable Series A Holder shall be entitled to nominate an individual for election as a Series A Director (including in the event of any vacancy in the position of the applicable Series A Director), which election shall be determined by the affirmative vote of the applicable Series A Holder or, if applicable, by written consent without a meeting in accordance with this Certificate of Designations (the Certificate of Designations) and the DGCL, or, at any time when the directors have exclusive authority to elect a director to fill a vacancy, by vote of the directors.

When a Series A Director is to be elected and will not be the successor to a Series A Director then in office, if the Board is then divided into classes with staggered terms, the class of directors in which such Series A Director shall serve shall be determined by vote of the directors. When a Series A Director is to be elected as the successor to a Series A Director then in office, if the Board is then divided into classes with staggered terms, such Series A Director shall serve in the class of directors in which such Series A Directors predecessor served. Any vacancy created by the death, resignation, removal or disqualification of a Series A Director shall not be filled by any individual not nominated by the applicable Series A Holder, except in the event such Series A Holder has ceased to have the right to nominate and elect such Series A Director; provided that if any such Series A Director shall resign effective as of a future date, such Series A Director shall have the power to fill the vacancy resulting from his or her resignation, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation becomes effective.

In the event the Corporation merges with another Person and is not the surviving corporation, or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to any Person or any other similar Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) occurs, the Corporation shall require, prior to the consummation of such transaction, that such successor entity deliver a written agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Series A Holders, assuming the Corporations obligations herein to maintain such D&O insurance with respect to the Series A Directors and to indemnify and advance expenses to such Series A Directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

10. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Certificate of Designations shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any other organizational documents of the Corporation and any of the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy. Nothing herein shall limit any Series A Holders or Series B Holders right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designations.

12. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Series A Holder or Series B Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. This Certificate of Designations shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Corporation
10
and the Series A Holders and the Series B Holders and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof.
