For both the Series G Preferred Stock and the Series H Preferred Stock, junior stock includes the Registrant’s common stock. These restrictions are set forth in the Certificate of Designation establishing the terms of the Series G Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designation establishing the terms of the Series H Preferred Stock, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 3.1, 3.2, 4.1 and 4.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
