5.           Status of Reacquired Shares.  Subject to compliance with applicable law, shares of Series C Preferred Stock which have been issued and reacquired in any manner shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock.  The Board may reissue these shares as shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C preferred stock or in any undesignated series.
