For the avoidance of doubt, such Accrued Dividends described in the second immediately preceding sentence shall include, without limitation, dividends accruing from, and including, the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date (or, if there is no preceding Dividend Payment Date, from, and including, the Issuer Date) to, but not including, the applicable Conversion Date, Change of Control Repurchase Date, Company Redemption Date or Investor Redemption Date, as applicable.

Notwithstanding the preceding, if full dividends have not been paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock so long as the dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that amounts of dividends declared per share on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated and unpaid dividends per share on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such other Parity Stock bear to each other.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend paid on any Common Stock or other Junior Stock, any dividend paid on any Parity Stock or any dividend paid on any Senior Stock.

(a) (i) So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least 50% of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class, 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 (directly or indirectly, including by way of amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or this Certificate of Designation, merger, consolidation, reclassification or otherwise):

(e) In addition to the other voting rights set forth in this Section 4 or as may be required under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote, on an as converted basis and together as a single class with the holders of Common Stock, on all matters submitted to the vote or consent of the holders of the Common Stock. For these purposes, the Holder of each share of Series A Preferred Stock will have a number of votes equal to the whole number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote or consent on the applicable matter or, if no such Record Date is established, at the date such vote or consent is taken or any written consent of shareholders is first executed. Holders will be entitled to notice of all shareholders’ meetings (or of any proposed action by written consent) in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company and applicable law as if the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock were holders of Common Stock.

(b) After the payment in full to the Holders of the amounts provided for in this Section 5, the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company in respect of their ownership of such Series A Preferred Stock.

(c) In the event the assets of the Company available for distribution to the Holders upon any such liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to Section 5(a), no such distribution shall be made on account of any shares of Parity Stock upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up unless proportionate distributable amounts shall be paid on account of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, equally and ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which Holders of all Series A Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such liquidation, winding-up or dissolution.

(b) On or after the date that is four years after the Issue Date, if the Holders have not elected to convert all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), the Company shall have the right to cause the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted, in whole or in part, into that number of whole, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the Liquidation Preference divided by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect on the related Forced Conversion Date, with such adjustment or cash payment for fractional shares as the Company may elect pursuant to Section 9; provided, however, that in order for the Company to exercise such right, the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Forced Conversion Notice Date (the “Measurement Period”) shall, for at least 20 Trading Days during such 30 consecutive Trading Day period, be greater than or equal to 150% of the Conversion Price then in effect on each such Trading Day.

The Company shall not issue any fractional shares in connection with a conversion and any fractional shares to which a Holder would otherwise be entitled will be settled in cash in accordance with Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company may not exercise its right to cause the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted pursuant to Section 6(b) unless (i) the Liquidity Conditions are satisfied with respect to each share of Common Stock to be issued in such conversion; and (ii) the Company is not in possession of material non-public information as of the Forced Conversion Notice Date or the date the forced conversion is settled.

(c) If the Company exercises its right to cause the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted, in whole or in part, pursuant to Section 6(b) prior to the date that is seven years after the Issue Date, the Company will pay to each Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that will be converted pursuant to such exercise, in cash, the present value, as of the applicable Forced Conversion Date, of the scheduled remaining Cash Dividends that would have been paid on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock after the Forced Conversion Date and prior to the date that is seven years after the Issue Date (such present value to be calculated assuming that all such Cash Dividends are paid in full and using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate, as of the date of the Change of Control, plus 50 basis points).

(d) Upon conversion, each Holder shall surrender to the Company the certificates representing any shares held in certificated form to be converted during usual business hours at its principal place of business or the offices of its duly appointed Transfer Agent maintained by it, accompanied by (i) (if so required by the Company or its duly appointed Transfer Agent) a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company or its duly appointed Transfer Agent duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized legal representative and (ii) transfer tax stamps or funds therefor, if required pursuant to Section 6(j).

(e) Immediately prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or the Forced Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to a conversion, a Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock notwithstanding that the share register of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates or book-entry notations representing such Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to such Holder. Except to the extent that the Company defaults on its obligation to settle any conversion, dividends shall cease to accrue on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted and all other rights with respect to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, will terminate, except only the rights of Holders thereof to receive the number of whole, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted (with such adjustment or cash payment for fractional shares as the Company may elect pursuant to Section 9). As promptly as practicable after the conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock, the Company shall deliver to the applicable Holder an Ownership Notice identifying the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled, and a cash payment in respect of fractional shares in accordance with Section 9.

(f) The Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments (except as provided in Section 6(g)):

(i) If the Company pays a dividend (or other distribution) in shares of Common Stock to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, in their capacity as holders of Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately following the record date for such dividend (or distribution), split or combination shall be divided by the following fraction:

OS1

OS0

where

OS0	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or combination, as the case may be; and
OS1	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

(ii) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of shares of the Common Stock, in their capacity as holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the Market Value determined on the Ex-Date for such issuance, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately following the close of business on the Ex-Date for such issuance shall be divided by the following fraction:

OS0 + X

OS0 + Y

where

OS0	=	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the opening of business on such Ex-Date;
X	=	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y		the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the Market Value.

To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights, options or warrants upon the exercise of such rights, option or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price that would have then been in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Conversion Price shall not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(f)(ii) until such triggering events occur. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall be decreased to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such Ex-Date for such issuance had not occurred. In determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, options or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors).

(iii) (A) If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of shares of Common Stock evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock (other than Common Stock) or other assets (including cash or securities, but excluding any dividend or distribution referred to in clause (i) above; any rights or warrants referred to in clause (ii) above; any consideration payable in connection with a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any of its Affiliates referred to in clause (iv) below; and any dividend of shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit in the case of a spin-off to which the following clause (iii)(B) applies), then the Conversion Price in effect immediately following the close of business on the record date for such distribution shall be divided by the following fraction:

SP0

SP0 – FMV

where

SP0	=	the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Ex-Date for such distribution; and
FMV	=	the fair market value of the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date as determined by the Board of Directors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Conversion Price, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall receive, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of such distributed assets that such holder would have received as if such holder owned the number of shares of Common Stock that such share of Series A Preferred Stock would have been convertible into at the Conversion Price in effect on the record date for such distribution.

(B) In a spin-off, where the Company makes a distribution to all or substantially all holders of shares of Common Stock consisting of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests of, or relating to, a subsidiary or other business unit where such capital stock or similar equity interests are, or will be when issued, listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted at the close of business on the tenth Trading Day after, and including, the Ex-Date of the distribution by dividing such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such tenth Trading Day by the following fraction:

MP0 + MPS

MP0

where

MP0	=	the average of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock over each of the first 10 Trading Days commencing on and including such Ex-Date; and
MPS	=	the average of the closing sale price of the capital stock or equity interests representing the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Common Stock over each of the first 10 Trading Days commencing on and including such Ex-Date. Such closing sale prices for the Trading Days in such 10 Trading Day period shall be determined in like manner to the definition of “Closing Sale Price.”

For purposes of determining the Conversion Price in respect of any Conversion Date that occurs during the 10 Trading Days following, and including, the Ex-Date of any such spin-off, references within the previous sentence to 10 Trading Days or the 10th Trading Day shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, such Ex-Date and such Conversion Date.

In the event that such distribution described in this clause (iii) is not so made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend distribution had not been declared.

(iv) In the case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the expiration of such Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the sum of (1) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (y) such Closing Sale Price per share of Common Stock and (2) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase; provided, however, that in no event will the Conversion Price be increased pursuant to this Section 6(f)(iv).

(v) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment under this Section 6(f) need be made to the Conversion Price unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1.0% of the Conversion Price then in effect. Any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the earlier of (i) the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment, if any, which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to an increase or decrease of at least 1.0% of the Conversion Price and (ii) the close of business on the Business Day preceding each Conversion Date.

(vi) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 6(f), rights or warrants distributed by the Company to holders of Common Stock, in their capacity as holders of Common Stock, entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (A) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (B) are not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 6(f) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 6(f) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under Section 6(f)(ii) or (iii). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price under this Section 6(f) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise thereof, the Conversion Price on any then-outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock not previously converted shall be readjusted as if such expired or terminated rights and warrants had not been issued. To the extent that the Company has a rights plan or agreement in effect upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, which rights plan provides for rights or warrants of the type described in this clause, then upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock the Holder will receive, in addition to the Common Stock to which he is entitled, a corresponding number of rights in accordance with the rights plan, unless a Trigger Event has occurred and the adjustments to the Conversion Price with respect thereto have been made in accordance with the foregoing first sentence of this Section 6(f)(vi). In lieu of any such adjustment pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6(f)(vi) in respect of a Trigger Event, the Company may amend such applicable stockholder rights plan or agreement to provide that there shall be the distributed, and cause to be distributed, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Trigger Event, to all Holders of Series A Preferred Stock the rights that would have attached to such number of shares of Common Stock as are issuable upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to the occurrence of such Trigger Event, without having to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(vii) The Company reserves the right to make such reductions in the Conversion Price in addition to those required in the foregoing provisions as it considers advisable in order that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the recipients. In the event the Company elects to make such a reduction in the Conversion Price, the Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder if and to the extent that such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the reduction of the Conversion Price.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6(f), no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made with respect to any distribution if the Holders are entitled to participate in such distribution as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to the record date for such event, without having to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(h) If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, and shall thereafter (and before the dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered to stockholders) abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment in the Conversion Price then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

(i) Upon any increase or decrease in the Conversion Price, then, and in each such case, the Company promptly shall deliver to each Holder a certificate signed by an Officer, setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and specifying the increased or decreased the Conversion Price then in effect following such adjustment.

(j) The issuance or delivery of certificates for Common Stock upon the conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the issuance or delivery of any Ownership Notice, whether at the request of a Holder or upon the conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, shall each be made without charge to the Holder or recipient of shares of Series A Preferred Stock for such certificates or Ownership Notice or for any tax in respect of the issuance or delivery of such certificates or the securities represented thereby or such Ownership Notice or the securities identified therein, and such certificates or Ownership Notice shall be issued or delivered in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by, the applicable Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate in a name other than that of the Holder of the shares of the relevant Series A Preferred Stock and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate or Ownership Notice unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance or delivery thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

(k) Any shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to this Section 6 shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (except as such nonassessability may be affected by matters of any state or federal law), free and clear or any liens, claims, rights or encumbrances other than those arising under the Delaware General Corporation Law or this Certificate of Designation or created by the holders thereof.

(l) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available for issuance upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock such number of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of Common Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant any applicable provision of this Certificate of Designation, and shall take all action required to be taken by it (including promptly calling and holding one or more special meetings of the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company until such increase is approved in accordance with applicable law and amending the Certificate of Incorporation) to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if at any time there shall be insufficient unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of Common Stock to permit such reservation or to permit the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or the payment or partial payment of dividends (if any) declared on Series A Preferred Stock that are payable in Common Stock. Each Purchaser agrees (and any transferee of Series A Preferred Stock shall be caused to agree), while it holds Series A Preferred Stock, to vote such Series A Preferred Stock in favor of any such necessary increase (i) to permit such conversion or payment or (ii) to reserve shares for issuance under any Company equity incentive or similar plan, in each case, at any annual or special meeting of the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and without limiting any other remedies that may be available to any Holder, unless otherwise agreed by the affirmative vote of the Holders of at least 75% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, if the Company defaults on delivering any shares of Common Stock due upon conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, dividends will continue to accrue on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(m) In the case of:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Series A Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),

(ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company,

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety, or

(iv) any statutory share exchange,

in each case as a result of which the Series A Common Stock is converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such transaction or event, a “Reorganization Event”; such stock, other securities, other property or assets, the “Reference Property”; and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Reorganization Event (without giving effect to any arrangement not to issue or deliver a fractional portion of any security or other property), a “Reference Property Unit”)), then, at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event, consideration due upon conversion of any Series A Preferred Stock will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in Certificate of Designation were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units; provided, however, if the holders of shares of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such Reorganization Event, the Holders shall be afforded the same opportunity to elect such form and proportion of consideration as if they had converted into shares of Common Stock, and will be subject to any limitations to which all holders of shares of Common Stock are subject, including, without limitation, pro rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable in the Reorganization Event. The Company shall not become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 6(m). None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Series A Preferred Stock to convert its Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 6 prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event. Notwithstanding Section 6(f), no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made for any Reorganization Event to the extent stock, securities or other property or assets become the Reference Property receivable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock.

The Company shall provide, by amendment hereto effective upon any such Reorganization Event, for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply to successive Reorganization Events.

SECTION 7. Change of Control.

(a) Promptly upon entry into a definitive agreement that provides for a Change of Control, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Holders.

(b) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right to cause the Company to repurchase each of such Holder’s Series A Preferred Stock into cash in an amount equal to the Change of Control Redemption Price by providing written notice of the exercise of such right to the Company. The Company will settle any such exercise no later than the later of (x) the effective date of such Change of Control; and (y) the tenth Business Day after delivery of such written notice (the date of any such settlement, the “Change of Control Repurchase Date.”

SECTION 8. Redemption.

(a) Redemption at the Option of the Company:

(i)

On or after the date that is seven years after the Issue Date, in addition to the Company’s right to cause all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted to shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(b), if Holders have not elected to convert all of their Shares pursuant to Section 6(a), the Company shall have the right to redeem any or all the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock for the Company Redemption Value. The Company Redemption Value may be paid in either cash or shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock at the exclusive election of the Company; provided, the Company may not elect to pay any portion of the Company Redemption Value in shares of Common Stock unless (i) the Liquidity Conditions have been satisfied with respect to such shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the Company is not in possession of material non-public information as of the date the Company provides the notice of redemption pursuant to Section 8(a)(ii).

(ii)

Notice of a redemption of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock by the Company shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Company. Such mailing shall be at least 30 days and not more than 60 days before the date fixed by the Company for redemption (such date, the “Company Redemption Date”). Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection (ii) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption given to a holder shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed; (3) (i) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed for cash and the corresponding Company Redemption Value to be paid in cash and (ii) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed for Common Shares and the corresponding Company Redemption Value to be paid in shares of Common Stock; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

(iii)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, prior to any redemption by the Company, a Holder may elect to convert its Series A Preferred Shares pursuant to Section 6(a).

(b) Redemption at the Option of the Holder:

(i)

On each Investor Redemption Date, a Holder shall have a right to cause the Company to redeem any or all of its Series A Preferred Shares for the Investor Redemption Value. The Investor Redemption Value may be paid in either cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock at the election of the Company; provided, however, that the Company may not elect to pay any portion of the Investor Redemption Value in shares of Common Stock unless the Liquidity Conditions have been satisfied with respect to such shares of Common Stock.

(ii)

To exercise the right described in Section 8(b)(i) above, a Holder must deliver notice to the Company on or before the second Business Day preceding the Investor Redemption Date. Such notice shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Company. Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection (ii) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Company receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof. Each notice of redemption given to the Company shall state: (1) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed; and (2) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price.

(iii)

Within two business days of receipt of such notice from a Holder, the Company shall deliver notice to the Investor stating the portion of the Investor Redemption Value that will be settled in cash and portion of the Investor Redemption Value that will be settled in Common Stock.

SECTION 9. No Fractional Shares.

No fractional shares of Common Stock or securities representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion, whether voluntary or mandatory, or in respect of dividend payments made in Common Stock on the Series A Preferred Stock. Instead, the Company may elect to either make a cash payment to each Holder that would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share (based on the Closing Sale Price of such fractional share determined as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the payment thereof) or, in lieu of such cash payment, round up to the next whole share the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to any particular Holder upon conversion.

SECTION 10. Uncertificated Shares; Certificated Shares.

(a) Uncertificated Shares.

(i)

Form. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless requested in writing by a Holder to the Company, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof shall be in uncertificated, book entry form as permitted by the bylaws of the Company and the Delaware General Corporation Law. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of uncertificated shares, the Company shall, or shall cause the Transfer Agent to, send to the registered owner thereof an Ownership Notice.

(ii)

Transfer. Transfers of Series A Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof held in uncertificated, book-entry form shall be made only upon the transfer books of the Company kept at an office of the Transfer Agent upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered owner of such uncertificated shares, or from a duly authorized attorney or from an individual presenting proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer the stock. The Company may refuse any requested transfer until furnished evidence satisfactory to it that such transfer is proper.

(iii)

Legends. Each Ownership Notice issued with respect to a share of Series A Preferred Stock or any Common Stock issued upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES IDENTIFIED HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS SUCH TRANSACTION IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, REGISTRATION.

SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF MERCADOLIBRE, INC. (THE “COMPANY”), INCLUDING THE CERTIFICATES OF DESIGNATIONS INCLUDED THEREIN (AS FURTHER AMENDED AND RESTATED FROM TIME TO TIME, THE “CHARTER”), THE COMPANY IS AUTHORIZED TO ISSUE MORE THAN ONE CLASS OF STOCK OR MORE THAN ONE SERIES OF ANY CLASS AND THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH WITHOUT CHARGE TO EACH STOCKHOLDER WHO SO REQUESTS THE POWERS, DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RELATIVE PARTICIPATING, OPTIONAL OR OTHER SPECIAL RIGHTS OF EACH CLASS OF STOCK OR SERIES THEREOF AND THE QUALIFICATIONS, LIMITATIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF SUCH PREFERENCES AND/OR RIGHTS. THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTICE ARE SUBJECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS STATED IN, AND ARE TRANSFERABLE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE PROVISIONS OF THE CHARTER.

When Series A Preferred Stock is in certificated form (“Certificated Series A Preferred Stock”), the Series A Preferred Stock certificate and the Transfer Agent’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designation. The Series A Preferred Stock certificate may have notations, legends or endorsements required by applicable law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage; provided, that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company. Each Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(ii)	Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign each Series A Preferred Stock certificate for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Series A Preferred Stock certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Transfer Agent authenticates the Series A Preferred Stock certificate, the Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall be valid nevertheless.

A Series A Preferred Stock certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Transfer Agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Series A Preferred Stock certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Series A Preferred Stock certificate has been authenticated under this Certificate of Designation.

The Transfer Agent shall authenticate and deliver certificates for shares of Series A Preferred Stock for original issue upon a written order of the Company signed by two Officers or by an Officer and an Assistant Treasurer of the Company. Such order shall specify the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of the Series A Preferred Stock is to be authenticated.

The Transfer Agent may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the certificates for the Series A Preferred Stock. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate certificates for the Series A Preferred Stock whenever the Transfer Agent may do so. Each reference in this Certificate of Designation to authentication by the Transfer Agent includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as the Transfer Agent or agent for service of notices and demands.

(iii)

Transfer and Exchange. When Certificated Series A Preferred Stock is presented to the Transfer Agent with a request to register the transfer of such Certificated Series A Preferred Stock or to exchange such Certificated Series A Preferred Stock for an equal number of shares of Certificated Series A Preferred Stock, the Transfer Agent shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for transfer or exchange:
