The Corporation shall register shares of the Series E Preferred Stock, upon records to be maintained by the Corporation for that purpose (the “Series E Preferred Stock Register”), in the name of the Series E Holders thereof from time to time. The Corporation may deem and treat the registered Series E Holder of shares of Series E Preferred Stock as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of any conversion thereof and for all other purposes. The Corporation shall register the transfer of any shares of Series E Preferred Stock in the Series E Preferred Stock Register, upon surrender of the certificates evidencing such shares to be transferred, duly endorsed by the Series E Holder thereof, to the Corporation at its address specified herein.

Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights resulting from the above formula (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Series E Preferred Stock held by each Series E Holder could be converted) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward). For the avoidance of doubt, the Series E Holders shall have no voting rights until the Stockholder Approval Date.

5. Liquidation. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (a “Liquidation”), whether voluntary or involuntary, each Series E Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would be entitled to receive with respect to such shares of Series E Preferred Stock if such shares had been converted to Common Stock immediately prior to such Liquidation (without giving effect for such purposes to the limitation on Conversion set forth in Section the Beneficial Ownership Limitation set forth in Section E.6(b) of this Article FOURTH, subject to the preferential rights of holders of any senior securities of the Corporation.

 

6. Conversion.

 

(a) Conversion at Option of Holder. Each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Stockholder Approval Date, at the option of the Series E Holder thereof, into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Ratio. Except for a conversion following a Fundamental Transaction or following a notice provided for under Section E.7(d)(ii) of this Article FOURTH, Series E Holders shall exercise the option to convert by providing the Corporation with a written notice of conversion (a “Notice of Conversion”), duly completed and executed. Each Notice of Conversion shall specify the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock owned prior to the requested conversion, the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the requested conversion and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the applicable Series E Holder delivers such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation (the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the Business Day that the Corporation receives the Notice of Conversion. Provided the Corporation’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program and the applicable Conversion Shares are either registered for resale or eligible for resale without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Notice of Conversion may specify, at the Series E Holder’s election, whether the applicable Conversion Shares shall be credited to the account of the Series E Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (a “DWAC Delivery”). The calculations set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error.

 

(b) Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, and a Series E Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of its Series E Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, such Series E Holder (together with such Series E Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Series E Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, including any “group” of which the Series E Holder is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below).

 

5

 

 

(ii) For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Series E Series E Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock subject to conversion with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted shares of Series E Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Series E Holder or any of its Affiliates, and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation beneficially owned by such Series E Holder or any of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes, convertible stock or warrants) that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.

 

(iii) To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section E.6(b) of Article FOURTH applies, the determination of whether the Series E Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Series E Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of its Series E Preferred Stock may be converted shall be in the sole discretion of the Series E Holder and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be such Series E Holder’s determination of whether the shares of Series E Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Series E Holder together with any Affiliates) and how many shares of the Series E Preferred Stock are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of this Section, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Series E Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Corporation’s most recent public filing with the Commission, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation or (C) a more recent notice by the Corporation or the Corporation’s transfer agent to the Series E Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of a Series E Holder (which may be by email), the Corporation shall, within two (2) Business Days of such request, confirm orally and in writing to such Series E Holder (which may be via email) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including shares of Series E Preferred Stock, by such Series E Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Series E Holder.

 

6

 

 

(iv) The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such conversion (to the extent permitted pursuant to this Section). At any time following the Stockholder Approval Date, the Series E Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Corporation, may increase (in the event that that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation is subsequently reduced) or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion the Series E Preferred Stock held by the Series E Holder and the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Corporation and shall only be effective with respect to such Series E Holder. The provisions of this Section shall be construed, corrected and implemented in a manner so as to effectuate the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series E Preferred Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Series E Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act.

 

(v) At any time following the Stockholder Approval Date, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section may be waived at the election of any Series E Holder upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to the Corporation. Any such waiver will not be effective and the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply until the 61st day (or later, if stated in the notice) after such notice of waiver is delivered to the Corporation.

 

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

(i) Delivery of Certificate or Electronic Issuance Upon Conversion. Not later than three Business Days after the applicable Conversion Date, or if the Series E Holder requests the issuance of physical certificate(s), two Business Days after receipt by the Corporation of the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series E Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Corporation shall (a) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting Series E Holder a physical certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of shares of Series E Preferred Stock or (b) in the case of a DWAC Delivery, electronically transfer such Conversion Shares by crediting the account of the Series E Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by or, in the case of a DWAC Delivery, such shares are not electronically delivered to or as directed by, the applicable Series E Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the applicable Series E Holder shall be entitled to elect to rescind such Conversion Notice by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares or electronic receipt of such shares, as applicable, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to such Series E Holder any original Series E Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation and such Series E Holder shall promptly return to the Corporation any Common Stock certificates or otherwise direct the return of any shares of Common Stock delivered to the Series E Holder through the DWAC system, representing the shares of Series E Preferred Stock unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Corporation.

(ii) Obligation Absolute. Subject to Section E.6(b) hereof and subject to a Series E Holder’s right to rescind a Conversion Notice pursuant to Section E.6(c)(i) above, the Corporation’s obligation to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Series E Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Series E Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Series E Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Series E Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares. Subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein and subject to a Series E Holder’s right to rescind a Conversion Notice pursuant to Section E.6(c)(i) above, in the event a Series E Holder shall elect to convert any or all of its Series E Preferred Stock, the Corporation may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Series E Holder or any one Person associated or affiliated with such Series E Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to such Series E Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series E Preferred Stock of such Series E Holder shall have been sought and obtained by the Corporation, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Series E Holder in the amount of 150% of the value of the Conversion Shares into which would be converted the Series E Preferred Stock which is subject to such injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Series E Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall, subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein and subject to Series E Holder’s right to rescind a Conversion Notice pursuant to Section E.6(c)(i) above, issue Conversion Shares upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Series E Holder such certificate or certificates, or electronically deliver (or cause its transfer agent to electronically deliver) such shares in the case of a DWAC Delivery, pursuant to Section E.6(c)(i) on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion (other than a failure caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by Series E Holder to the Corporation), then, unless the Series E Holder has rescinded the applicable Conversion Notice pursuant to Section E.6(c)(i) above, the Corporation shall pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to such Series E Holder an amount payable in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of Conversion Shares required to have been issued by the Corporation on such Share Delivery Date, (y) an amount equal to the Daily Failure Amount and (z) the number of Business Days actually lapsed after such fifth (5th) Business Day after the Share Delivery Date during which such certificates have not been delivered, or, in the case of a DWAC Delivery, such shares have not been electronically delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Series E Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Series E Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief; provided that Series E Holder shall not receive duplicate damages for the Corporation’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Series E Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

(iii) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Series E Holders, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments of Section D.7 of this Article FOURTH) upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

(iv) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a Series E Holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, such fraction shall be rounded up or down to the next whole share.

 

(v) Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Series E Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the registered Series E Holder(s) of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid. The Corporation shall pay all transfer agent fees required for processing of any Notice of Conversion.

 

(d) Status as Stockholder. Upon each Conversion Date, (i) the shares of Series E Preferred Stock being converted shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Series E Holder’s rights as a holder of such converted shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Series E Holder because of a failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms herein. In all cases, the holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Corporation’s failure to convert Series E Preferred Stock.

7. Certain Adjustments.

 

(a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time while this Series E Preferred Stock is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation upon conversion of this Series E Preferred Stock) with respect to the then outstanding shares of Common Stock; (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; or (C) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation). Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section E.7(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.

 

(b) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Series E Preferred Stock is outstanding, (A) the Corporation effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person (other than a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving or continuing entity and its Common Stock is not exchanged for or converted into other securities, cash or property), (B) the Corporation effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which all of the Common Stock is exchanged for or converted into other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Corporation effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant (other than as a result of a dividend, subdivision or combination covered by Section E.7(b) above) to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series E Preferred Stock the Series E Holders shall have the right to receive, in lieu of the right to receive Conversion Shares, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”). For purposes of any such subsequent conversion, the determination of the Conversion Ratio shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Corporation shall adjust the Conversion Ratio in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Series E Holders shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Series E Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Corporation or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file an amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or separate Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Series E Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Series E Holders’ right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement to which the Corporation is a party and pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section E.7(b) and insuring that the Series E Preferred Stock (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. The Corporation shall cause to be delivered to each Series E Holder, at its last address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Corporation, written notice of any Fundamental Transaction at least 20 calendar days prior to the date on which such Fundamental Transaction is expected to become effective or close.

 

10

 

 

(c) Calculations. All calculations under this Section E.7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section E.7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) issued and outstanding.

 

(d) Notice to Holders.

 

(i) Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section E.7, the Corporation shall promptly deliver to each Series E Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Ratio after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(ii) Other Notices. If (A) the Corporation shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Corporation shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Corporation shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Corporation shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Corporation shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, then, in each case, the Corporation shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Series E Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be delivered to each Series E Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Corporation, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
