12
8.3 Any such Series A Redemption or NE Redemption shall occur not more than thirty (30) days following receipt by the Corporation of a written election notice (the "Series A Election Notice") from any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, stating the aggregate number of Shares to be redeemed by such holder. In exchange for the surrender of each Share of Series A Preferred Stock to the Corporation, the Corporation shall pay to the holder thereof the Series A Redemption Price or the NE Redemption Price (as applicable, the “Redemption Price”), multiplied by the number of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock being surrendered by such holder, which shall be payable in immediately available funds on the Series A Redemption Date.

As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) days, following receipt of a Series A Election Notice, the Corporation shall send written notice (the "Series A Redemption Notice") of its receipt of a Series A Election Notice to each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock.

(c) the manner and place designated for surrender by the holder to the Corporation of his, her or its certificate or certificates representing the Shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed.
8.5 Insufficient Funds; Remedies For Nonpayment.
(a) Insufficient Funds. If on any Series A Redemption Date, the assets of the Corporation legally available are insufficient to pay the full amount of the Redemption Price for the total number of Shares elected to be redeemed pursuant to Section 8.1 or 8.2, the Corporation shall (i) take all appropriate action reasonably within its means to maximize the assets legally available for paying the Redemption Price, (ii) redeem out of all such assets legally available therefor on the applicable Series A Redemption Date the maximum possible number of Shares that it can redeem on such date, pro rata among the holders of such Shares to be redeemed in proportion to the aggregate number of Shares elected to be
13
redeemed by each such holder on the applicable Series A Redemption Date and (iii) following the applicable Series A Redemption Date, at any time and from time to time when additional assets of the Corporation become legally available to redeem the remaining Shares, the Corporation shall immediately use such assets to pay the remaining balance of the aggregate Redemption Price.
(b) Remedies For Nonpayment. If on any Series A Redemption Date, all of the Shares elected to be redeemed (subject to the limitations imposed by the Adverse Party Redemption Percentage and the Licensing Redemption Percentage) pursuant to a Series A Election Notice are not redeemed in full by the Corporation by paying the entire Redemption Price, then, until such Shares are fully redeemed and the Redemption Price is paid in full, (i) all of the unredeemed Shares shall remain outstanding and continue to have the rights, preferences and privileges expressed herein, (b) interest on the unpaid portion of the aggregate Redemption Price shall accrue daily in arrears at a rate equal to 15.0% per annum (the “Default Rate”), compounded quarterly, and (c) the holders of the unredeemed Shares shall have the remedies set forth in Section 9.2. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the interest payable pursuant to this Section 8.5(b) shall be due and payable on any subsequent redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and shall constitute part of the Redemption Price, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of the lost profits suffered by each holder of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock as a result thereof. Any interest payable pursuant to this Section 8.5(b) shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each holder as the result of the failure to redeem such holder in full, and the Corporation agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE CORPORATION EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING INTEREST IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUBSEQUENT REDEMPTION. The Corporation expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Default Rate is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Default Rate shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Corporation and the holders of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Default Rate; and (D) the Corporation shall be
14
estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Corporation expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Default Rate as herein described is a material inducement to the holders of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock to purchase the Shares.
8.6 Surrender of Certificates. On or before the Series A Redemption Date, each holder of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such Shares to the Corporation, in the manner and place designated in the Series A Redemption Notice, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, shall deliver an affidavit of loss, in the manner and place designated in the Series A Redemption Notice. Each surrendered certificate shall be canceled and retired and the Corporation shall thereafter make payment of the applicable Series A Redemption Price by certified check or wire transfer to the holder of record of such certificate; provided, that if less than all the Shares represented by a surrendered certificate are redeemed, then a new stock certificate representing the unredeemed Shares shall be issued in the name of the applicable holder of record of canceled stock certificate.
8.7 Rights Subsequent to Redemption. If on the applicable Series A Redemption Date, the Redemption Price is paid (or tendered for payment) for any of the Shares to be redeemed on such Series A Redemption Date, then on such date all rights of the holder in the Shares so redeemed and paid or tendered shall cease, and such Shares shall no longer be deemed issued and outstanding.
9. Breach of Obligations.
9.1 Series A Preferred Stock Breach. A breach by the Corporation of the rights, preferences, powers, restrictions and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock set forth herein shall mean the occurrence of one or more of any of the events and conditions set forth in this Section 9.1 (each such event or condition, a "Series A Preferred Stock Breach"), whether such event or condition occurs voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, order, decree, rule or regulation and regardless of the reason or cause of such event or condition:

(d) Bankruptcy or Insolvency.

9.2 Consequences of Breach. In addition to any other rights which a holder of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled under any other contract or agreement and any other rights such holder may have pursuant to applicable law, the holders of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the rights and remedies set forth in this Section 9.2 on the occurrence of a Series A Preferred Stock Breach.
(a) Security Interest. Upon the occurrence of a Series A Preferred Stock Breach, the holders of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock (for purposes of this Section, the “Secured Parties”) shall have, and the Corporation hereby grants to the Secured Parties, a first-in-priority pledge over and security interest in all Collateral. This Agreement shall constitute a “security agreement”, “lien”, “charge” (or the equivalent under applicable law) and “pledge” in favor of the Secured Parties for that purpose, and the security interest hereby created shall be in express priority to any rights of any other Person in and to the Collateral.
16
The Corporation shall (i) execute upon demand, and each holder of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock may file, any appropriate documents and agreements (including security agreements) as required under applicable law for the purpose of perfecting the security interest in the Collateral and as notice to third parties that the Corporation has conveyed its interest in the Collateral, and (ii) deliver any and all documents, instruments or certificates related to the creation and perfection of the security interest as the Secured Parties may reasonably require from time to time. For purposes of this Section 9.2, “Collateral” shall mean each of the following of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (as such capitalized terms are defined in Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code): (a) Accounts, (b) Chattel Paper, (c) Commercial Tort Claims, (d) Deposit Accounts, (e) Documents, (f) General Intangibles, (g) Goods, (h) Instruments, (i) Investment Property, (j) Letter-of-Credit Rights and Letters of Credit, (k) Supporting Obligations, (l) Disbursements, (m) Proceeds, (n) Judgment Collateral, (o) all books, records, writings, databases, information and other property relating to, used or useful in connection with, evidencing, embodying, incorporating or referring to, any of the foregoing, (p) all Proceeds of the foregoing, and, to the extent not otherwise included, (i) all payments under insurance and (ii) all tort claims, and (q) all other property and rights of every kind and description and interests therein. The Secured Parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to release any security interest obtained pursuant to this Section 9.2(a) within ten (10) business days following the Corporation’s cure of the applicable Series A Preferred Stock Breach.
(b) Redemption Right. Notwithstanding the earliest date for redemption set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2, if a Series A Preferred Stock Breach has occurred (other than a Series A Preferred Stock Breach described in Section 9.1(c)), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to elect to have, out of funds legally available therefor, all or any portion of such holder’s outstanding Shares of Series A Preferred Stock immediately redeemed by the Corporation for a price per Share (when, if and as so elected by such holder of Series A Preferred Stock) equal to the Liquidation Value of such Shares, plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends on such Share (whether or not declared). Any such redemption shall occur not more than thirty (30) days following receipt by the Corporation of a Series A Election Notice, stating the number of Shares to be redeemed. Any such redemption shall otherwise be executed in accordance with the provisions of Section 8, applied mutatis mutandis.
(c) Automatic Redemption on Bankruptcy. Notwithstanding the earliest date for redemption set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2, if a Series A Preferred Stock Breach described
17
in Section 9.1(c) has occurred, all of the then outstanding Shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to redemption immediately without any action required by the holders of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock, for a price per Share (when, if and as such breach has occurred) equal to the Liquidation Value of such Shares, plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends on such Share. Any such redemption shall occur immediately and shall otherwise be executed in accordance with the provisions of Section 8, applied mutatis mutandis.
10. Reissuance of Series A Preferred Stock. Any Shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed, converted or otherwise acquired by the Corporation or any Subsidiary shall be cancelled and retired as authorized and issued shares of capital stock of the Corporation and no such Shares shall thereafter be reissued, sold or transferred.
11. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given: (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next business day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient; or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Such communications must be sent (a) to the Corporation, at its principal executive offices and (b) to any stockholder, at such holder's address at it appears in the stock records of the Corporation (or at such other address for a stockholder as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 11).
12. Amendment and Waiver.
