The following is a statement of the designations and the rights, powers and privileges, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, in respect of each class of capital stock of the Corporation.

PART A. PREFERRED STOCK1

1. DESIGNATION AND RIGHTS. Subject to the provisions of this Article IV and any limitations prescribed by law, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) is hereby empowered: (a) by resolution or resolutions, to cause the Corporation to issue from time to time, in one or more series, up to 500,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, and (b) by filing a certificate of designation pursuant to the applicable law of the state of Delaware (“Certificate of Designation”), to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers (including voting powers), preferences, terms, conditions, privileges and other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof.

2. VOTE TO INCREASE OR DECREASE AUTHORIZED SHARES. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and without a separate vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, unless any such vote is required pursuant to the terms of any Certificate of Designation.

PART B. COMMON STOCK

1. DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT. The designation of this class of capital stock shall be “Class A Common Stock,” par value $.01 per share, and “Class B Common Stock,” par value $.01 per share. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in Article IV, Part B, Section 5, the Corporation shall not issue additional shares of Class B Common Stock (or securities (including options, warrants, or other rights) convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class B Common Stock) after the Dividend Date.

2. EQUAL STATUS. Except as expressly set forth in this Restated Certificate or required by applicable law, shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall have the same rights and powers, rank equally (including as to dividends and distributions, and upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation), share ratably and be identical in all respects and as to all matters.

3. VOTING RIGHTS. Except as otherwise provided in this Restated Certificate or required by applicable law, the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall (a) at all times vote together as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote or for the written consent of the stockholders of the Corporation, (b) be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the By-laws of the Corporation and (c) be entitled to vote upon such matters and in such manner as may be provided in this Restated Certificate or required by applicable law.

1 Note to Draft: Certificate of Elimination for Series A Preferred to be filed prior to the Effective Time.

EXB-2

4. DIVIDEND RIGHTS. Dividends may be declared by the Board of Directors and paid on the Common Stock from funds legally available therefor as and when determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, subject to the requirements of applicable law and the provisions of this Restated Certificate. Shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be treated equally, identically and ratably, on a per share basis, with respect to any such dividends; provided, however, that in the event a dividend is paid in the form of shares of Common Stock, or securities (including options, warrants, or other rights) convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, then such dividend shall be paid only in shares of Class A Common Stock (or securities (including options, warrants, or other rights) convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock), with holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock receiving, on a per share basis, an identical number of shares of Class A Common Stock (or securities (including options, warrants or other rights) convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for an identical number of shares of Class A Common Stock). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may pay or make a disparate dividend or distribution per share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (whether in the amount of such dividend or distribution payable per share, the form in which such dividend or distribution is payable, the timing of the payment, or otherwise) if such disparate dividend or distribution is approved in advance by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

5. SUBDIVISIONS, COMBINATIONS OR RECLASSIFICATIONS. Shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock may not be subdivided, combined or reclassified unless the shares of the other class of Common Stock are concurrently therewith proportionately subdivided, combined or reclassified in a manner that maintains the same proportionate equity ownership between the holders of the outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock on the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided, however, that shares of one such class may be subdivided, combined or reclassified in a different or disproportionate manner if such subdivision, combination or reclassification is approved in advance by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

6. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. Subject to the preferential or other rights, if any, of the holders of any Preferred Stock, in the event of any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will be entitled to receive ratably all assets or funds of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, irrespective of class, unless disparate or different treatment of the shares of each such class with respect to distributions upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up is approved in advance by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

7. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION. In the case of any distribution or payment in respect of the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock upon the consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other entity, or in the case of any other transaction having an effect on stockholders substantially similar to that resulting from a consolidation or merger, such distribution or payment shall be made ratably on a per share basis among the holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as a single class; provided, however, that shares of one such class may receive different or disproportionate distributions or payments in connection with such merger, consolidation or other transaction if (i) the only difference in the per share distribution to the holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is that any securities distributed to the holder of a share Class B Common Stock have ten times the voting power of any securities distributed to the holder of a share of Class A Common Stock, or (ii) such merger, consolidation or other transaction is approved by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

EXB-3

8. CONVERSION OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK.

8A. VOLUNTARY CONVERSION. Each share of Class B Common Stock shall be convertible into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder thereof at any time upon written notice to the Corporation. Before any holder of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to voluntarily convert any shares of such Class B Common Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor (if any), duly endorsed (or in the case of lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate(s), shall notify the Corporation that the certificate(s) have been lost, stolen, or destroyed), at the principal corporate office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal corporate office, that the stockholder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the name(s) (i) in which the certificate(s) representing the shares of Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Class B Common Stock are so converted are to be issued or (ii) in which such shares are to be registered in book entry if such shares are uncertificated. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, (x) issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Class B Common Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such voluntary conversion unless the certificate(s) evidencing such shares of Class B Common Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent as provided above, or the holder notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate(s), or (y) if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted following or contemporaneously with the written notice of such holder’s election to convert required by this Section 8A, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock as of such time. Each share of Class B Common Stock that is converted pursuant to this Part B, Section 8A of Article IV shall be retired by the Corporation and shall not be available for reissuance.

EXB-4

certificated) or, if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book entry form. If the Corporation has reason to believe that a Transfer Conversion Event with respect to any shares of Class B Common Stock has occurred but has not theretofore been reflected on the books of the Corporation, the Corporation may request that the applicable holder furnish affidavits or other evidence to the Corporation as the Corporation deems necessary to determine whether a Transfer Conversion Event has occurred, and if such holder does not within ten (10) days after the date of such request furnish sufficient evidence to the corporation (in the manner provided in the request) to enable the Corporation to determine that no such Transfer Conversion Event has occurred, any such shares of Class B Common Stock, to the extent not previously converted, shall be automatically converted into shares of Class A Common Stock and the same shall thereupon be registered on the books and records of the Corporation. If the Secretary of the Corporation or the Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, determines that any shares of Class B Common Stock have been subject to an inadvertent Transfer that would constitute a Transfer Conversion Event, or any other event shall have occurred, or any state of facts arisen or come into existence, that would inadvertently cause a Transfer Conversion Event, and the holder thereof shall have cured or shall promptly cure such inadvertent Transfer or the event or state of facts that would inadvertently cause such Transfer Conversion Event, then the Secretary of the Corporation or the Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, may determine that such share or shares of Class B Common Stock shall not have been automatically converted into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 8B of this Article IV. Subject to the preceding sentence, each share of Class B Common Stock that is converted pursuant to this Part B, Section 8B of Article IV shall thereupon be retired by the Corporation and shall not be available for reissuance.

8C. The Corporation may, from time to time, establish such policies and procedures, not in violation of applicable law or the other provisions of this Restated Certificate, relating to the conversion of the Class B Common Stock into Class A Common Stock, as it may deem necessary or advisable in connection therewith. In connection with any action of the stockholders taken at a meeting or by written consent, the Corporation shall presume that the stock ledger of the Corporation sets forth the stockholders entitled to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders or in connection with any such written consent and the class or classes or series of shares held by each such stockholder and the number of shares of each class or classes or series held by such stockholder, provided that any such presumption shall be rebuttable by a Holder of shares of Common Stock that furnishes affidavits or other evidence sufficient to enable the Corporation to make a contrary determination in accordance with this Restated Certificate. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any determination by the Secretary of the Corporation relating to the conversion of any share of Class B Common Stock into a share of Class A Common Stock shall be conclusive and binding.

9. RESERVATION OF STOCK. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Class B Common Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

10. PROTECTIVE PROVISION. The Corporation shall not, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, amend, alter, repeal or waive Parts B or C of this Article IV (or adopt any provision inconsistent therewith), without first obtaining the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, voting as a separate class, in addition to any other vote required by applicable law, this Restated Certificate or the By-laws of the Corporation.

EXB-5

11. ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE PROVISION. For a period of eighteen (18) months from the Effective Time, any merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar transaction as a result of which Standard General L.P. and its affiliates, individually or in the aggregate, would own ninety-five percent (95%) or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation shall require the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Class A Common Stock held by stockholders of the Corporation other than Standard General L.P. and its affiliates. For a period of eighteen (18) months from the Effective Time, the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Class A Common Stock held by the stockholders of the Corporation other than Standard General L.P. and its affiliates shall be required to amend, alter or eliminate this Section 11 of Article IV, Part B.

The determination of those shares that constitute Excess Shares shall be made solely by reference to the date or dates on which such shares were acquired by a Restricted Investor (which, in the event such shares were acquired upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities, shall be deemed to be the date of such exercise, conversion or exchange), starting with the most recent acquisition of shares of capital stock by a Restricted Investor and including, in reverse chronological order of acquisition, all other acquisitions of shares of capital stock by the Restricted Investor from and after the acquisition of those shares of capital stock by the Restricted Investor that first caused the Permitted Percentage to be exceeded, the determination by the Corporation as to those shares that constitute Excess Shares shall, be determined by reference to bona fide records maintained by the Corporation’s transfer agent and shall be conclusive and binding on the Restricted Investor in all respects.

4. REDEMPTION OF STOCK. Excess Shares shall be subject to redemption by the Corporation (by action of the Board of Directors, in its discretion) to the extent necessary to reduce the aggregate number of shares of such capital stock owned by Restricted Investors to the Permitted Percentage. The terms and conditions of such redemption shall be as follows:

4A. the per share redemption price to be paid for the Excess Shares (the “Redemption Price”) shall be the sum of (i) the Article XI Fair Market Value of such shares of capital stock plus (ii) an amount equal to the amount of any dividend or distribution declared in respect of such shares prior to the date on which such shares are called for redemption and which amount has been withheld by the Corporation pursuant to paragraph 3 of this Article XI;

4B. the Redemption Price shall be paid either in cash (by bank or cashier’s check) or by the issuance of Redemption Securities, as determined by the Board of Directors, in its discretion;

4C. the Excess Shares to be redeemed shall be selected in the same manner as provided in paragraph 3 of this Article XI and shall not exceed the number necessary to reduce the percentage of shares of capital stock owned by the Restricted Investor, in the aggregate, to the Permitted Percentage; provided that the Corporation may adjust upward to the nearest whole share the number of shares to be redeemed so as not to be required to redeem or issue fractional shares;

4D. written notice of the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) together with a letter of transmittal to accompany certificates evidencing shares of stock which are surrendered for redemption (if any) shall be given either by hand delivery or by overnight courier service first class mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of the selected shares to be redeemed, at such holder’s last known address as the same appears on the stock register of the Corporation (unless such notice is waived in writing by any such holders) (the “Redemption Notice”);

4E. the Redemption Date (for purposes of determining right, title and interest in and to shares of capital stock being selected for redemption) shall be the later of (i) the date specified as the redemption date in the Redemption Notice given to holders (which date shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given) or (ii) the date on which the funds or Redemption Securities necessary to effect the redemption have been irrevocably deposited in trust for the benefit of such holders;

4F. each Redemption Notice shall specify (i) the Redemption Date (as determined pursuant to clause 4E of this paragraph 4 of this Article XI), (ii) the number of shares of capital stock to be redeemed from such holder (and the certificate number(s) evidencing such shares, if such shares are certificated), (iii) the Redemption Price and the manner of payment thereof, (iv) the place where certificates for such shares (if any) are to be surrendered for cancellation against the simultaneous payment of the Redemption Price, (v) any instructions as to the endorsement or assignment for transfer of such certificates (if any) and the completion of the accompanying letter of transmittal; and (vi) the fact that all right, title and interest in respect of the shares so selected for redemption (including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights) shall cease and terminate on the Redemption Date, except for the right to receive the Redemption Price;

EXB-17

4G. from and after the Redemption Date, all right, title and interest in respect of the shares selected for redemption (including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights) shall cease and terminate, such shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding (and may either be retired or held by the Corporation as treasury stock) and the owners of such shares shall thereafter be entitled only to receive the Redemption Price; and

4H. upon surrender of the certificates for any shares so redeemed in accordance with the requirements of the Redemption Notice (if any) and accompanying letter of transmittal (and otherwise in proper form for transfer as specified in the Redemption Notice), the owner of such shares shall be entitled to payment of the Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate (or certificates) shall be issued representing the shares not redeemed without cost to the holder thereof.

5. CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. To the extent necessary to enable the Corporation to determine the percentage of the outstanding capital stock of any class owned by Restricted Investors, the Corporation may require that record or beneficial owners of shares of stock confirm whether or not they are Restricted Investors (by submitting such documentary and other evidence thereof as the Corporation may reasonably require or request) and may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, temporarily withhold and deposit into escrow dividends payable to, any such record holder and owner until adequate confirmation is received. The Board of Directors is authorized to take all such other ministerial acts and to make such interpretations as it may deem necessary or advisable to effectuate the policy and provisions of this Article XI.

6. SEVERABILITY. Each provision of this Article XI is intended to be severable from every other provision. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Article XI is held by a court or similar body of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Article XI shall not be affected, and this Article XI shall be construed as if the provisions held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable had never been contained therein.

8. CONVERSION OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK.

EXC-3

Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such voluntary conversion unless the certificate(s) evidencing such shares of Class B Common Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent as provided above, or the holder notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection with such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate(s), or (y) if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted following or contemporaneously with the written notice of such holder’s election to convert required by this Section 8A, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Class A Common Stock as of such time. Each share of Class B Common Stock that is converted pursuant to this Part B, Section 8A of Article IV shall be retired by the Corporation and shall not be available for reissuance.

8B. AUTOMATIC CONVERSION. From and after the Effective Time, (i) each share of Class B Common Stock shall automatically, without further action by the holder thereof, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock, upon the occurrence of a Transfer (as defined in Part C of this Article IV), other than a Permitted Transfer (as defined in Part C of this Article IV), of such share of Class B Common Stock (any such Transfer, a “Transfer Conversion Event”) and (ii) all (and not less than all) shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically, without further action by any holder thereof, convert into an identical number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock at such date and time, or the occurrence of an event, specified by the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of two-thirds of the then-outstanding shares Class B Common Stock, voting as a separate class (the occurrence of a Transfer Conversion Event or an event described in clause (ii) of this Part B, Section 8B, a “Conversion Event”). Each outstanding stock certificate that, immediately prior to a Conversion Event, represented one or more shares of Class B Common Stock subject to such Conversion Event shall, upon such Conversion Event, be deemed to represent an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, without the need for surrender or exchange thereof. The Corporation shall, upon the request of any holder whose shares of Class B Common Stock have been converted into shares of Class A Common Stock as a result of a Conversion Event, and upon surrender by such holder to the Corporation of the outstanding certificate(s) formerly representing such holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock or, in the case of lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate(s) (where the Corporation has been notified that that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen, or destroyed), after execution of an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate(s), issue and deliver to such holder certificate(s) representing the shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder’s shares of Class B Common Stock were converted as a result of such Conversion Event (if such shares are certificated) or, if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book entry form. If the Corporation has reason to believe that a Transfer Conversion Event with respect to any shares of Class B Common Stock has occurred but has not theretofore been reflected on the books of the Corporation, the Corporation may request that the applicable holder furnish affidavits or other evidence to the Corporation as the Corporation deems necessary to determine whether a Transfer Conversion Event has occurred, and if such holder does not within ten (10) days after the date of such request furnish sufficient evidence to the corporation (in the manner provided in the request) to enable the Corporation to determine that no such Transfer Conversion Event has occurred, any such shares of Class B Common Stock, to the extent not previously converted, shall be automatically converted into shares of Class A Common Stock and the same shall thereupon be registered on the books and records of the Corporation. If the Secretary of the Corporation or the Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, determines that any shares of Class B Common Stock have been subject to an inadvertent Transfer that would constitute a Transfer Conversion Event, or any other event shall have occurred, or any state of facts arisen or come into existence, that would inadvertently cause a Transfer Conversion Event, and the holder thereof shall have cured or shall promptly cure such inadvertent Transfer or the event or state of facts that would inadvertently cause such Transfer

EXC-4

Conversion Event, then the Secretary of the Corporation or the Board of Directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof, may determine that such share or shares of Class B Common Stock shall not have been automatically converted into Class A Common Stock pursuant to Section 8B of this Article IV.

4F. each Redemption Notice shall specify (i) the Redemption Date (as determined pursuant to clause 4E of this paragraph 4 of this Article X), (ii) the number of shares of capital stock to be redeemed from such holder (and the certificate number(s) evidencing such shares, if such shares are certificated), (iii) the Redemption Price and the manner of payment thereof, (iv) the place where certificates for such shares (if any) are to be surrendered for cancellation against the simultaneous payment of the Redemption Price, (v) any instructions as to the endorsement or assignment for transfer of such certificates (if any) and the completion of the accompanying letter of transmittal; and (vi) the fact that all right, title and interest in respect of the shares so selected for redemption (including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights) shall cease and terminate on the Redemption Date, except for the right to receive the Redemption Price;
