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.

 

A.                                    COMMON STOCK

 

1.                                      General.  The voting, dividend and liquidation rights of the holders of the Common Stock are subject to and qualified by the rights, powers and privileges of the holders of the Preferred Stock set forth herein.

 

2.                                      Voting.  The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held at all meetings of stockholders (and written actions in lieu of meetings).  Unless required by law, there shall be no cumulative voting.  The number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by (in addition to any vote of the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock that may be required by the terms of this Restated Certificate) the affirmative vote of the holders of shares of capital stock of the Corporation representing a majority of the votes represented by all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law and without a separate class vote of the holders of the Common Stock.

 

B.                                    PREFERRED STOCK

 

The following rights, powers and privileges, and restrictions, qualifications and limitations, shall apply to the Preferred Stock.  Unless otherwise indicated, references to “Sections” in this Part B of this Article IV refer to sections of this Part B.

 

1.                                      Dividends.

 

1.1                               Participation.  The Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 8% of the Original Issue Price (as defined in Section 2.1.2) of the Series B Preferred Stock per share (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations, reorganization and the like with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, other than the Stock Split) per annum, out of any assets at the time legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by the Board (as defined in Section 2.3.3), prior and in preference to any dividend or distributions, declared, paid or set aside on shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock or the Common Stock.  If, after dividends in the full preferential amount specified in the foregoing sentence have been paid or declared and set apart in any calendar year of the Corporation, the holders of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 8% of the Original Issue Price per share of such series of Preferred Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations, reorganization and the like with respect to such series of Preferred Stock, other than the Stock Split) per annum, out of the assets at the time legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by the Board, prior and in preference to any dividends or distributions declared, paid or set aside on shares of the Common Stock. If, after dividends in the full preferential amount specified in the foregoing sentence have been paid or declared and set apart in any calendar year of the Corporation, the Board may declare dividends out of funds legally available therefor on the Common Stock; provided that if any such dividends are declared, dividends shall be declared on the Preferred Stock on a pari

passu basis and paid pro rata among the holders of the Preferred Stock and Common Stock on a per share basis (as if all shares of Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the payment of such dividends).  For this purpose each holder of shares of Preferred Stock is to be treated as holding the greatest whole number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by such holder pursuant to Sections 4 and 5.

 

1.2                               Non-Cash Dividends.  Whenever a dividend provided for in this Section 1 shall be payable in property other than cash, the value of such dividend shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board.

 

1.3                               Partial Liquidation Events.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation determines (subject to Section 3.3 and without limitation to Section 2, including Section 2.3) to distribute to the stockholders of the Corporation the proceeds (cash or otherwise) resulting from any sale, license and/or other transfer of its assets (other than any sale, license or other transfer of its assets effected in the ordinary course of business of the Corporation for which the Corporation is not required to obtain any consent pursuant to Section 3.3) (each such sale, license or other transfer, a “Partial Liquidation Event”), then:

 

1.3.1                     the proceeds resulting from such Partial Liquidation Event (including in respect of any ongoing payments, such as a royalty or milestone payment) shall be distributed in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 and not this Section 1; except that no such proceeds shall be distributed in respect of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on a Partial Liquidation Event, and instead the holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall have the rights set forth in Section 5.2 of that certain Investors’ Rights Agreement dated on or about the date the first share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock is issued, as may be amended (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”); and

 

1.3.2                     the amount of proceeds resulting from a Partial Liquidation Event that are distributed as provided in this Section 1.3 shall apply against and reduce the amount that holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (together, the “Voting Preferred Stock”) are entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1 in connection with any subsequent Partial Liquidation Event, voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or Deemed Liquidation Event.

 

2.                                      Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up; Certain Mergers, Consolidations and Asset Sales.

 

2.1                               Preferential Payments to Holders of Preferred Stock.

 

2.1.1                     Preferential Payments to Holders of Series B Preferred Stock. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or any Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below), before any payment shall be made to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock or Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the funds and assets available for distribution to its stockholders, on a pari passu basis, an amount per share equal to the Original Issue Price (as defined below) for each share of Series B Preferred Stock plus any dividends declared but unpaid

thereon. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event of the Corporation, the funds and assets available for distribution to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the full amounts to which they are entitled under this Section 2.1.1, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the funds and assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts that would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.

 

2.1.2                     Preferential Payments to Holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or any Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below), before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the funds and assets available for distribution to its stockholders, on a pari passu basis, an amount per share equal to (i) the Original Issue Price (as defined below) for each share of Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) the Series A-1 Liquidation Price (as defined below) for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, plus in each case any dividends declared but unpaid thereon. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event of the Corporation, the funds and assets available for distribution to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock the full amounts to which they are entitled under this Section 2.1.2, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the funds and assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts that would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.

 

The “Original Issue Price” (i) in the case of each of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, shall mean $6.40 per share, and (ii) in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock shall mean $8.9661, in each case subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock splits and combinations of shares and for dividends paid on such series of Preferred Stock in shares of such stock.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Original Issue Prices have been adjusted for the Stock Split and no additional adjustment shall be made as a result of the Stock Split.

 

The “Series A-1 Liquidation Price” shall mean $58.511281 per share, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock splits and combinations of shares and for dividends paid on the Series A-1 Preferred Stock in shares of such stock.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Series A-1 Liquidation Price has been adjusted for the Stock Split and no additional adjustment shall be made as a result of the Stock Split.

 

2.2                               Distribution of Remaining Assets.  In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event of the Corporation, after the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2.1, the remaining funds and assets available for distribution to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be distributed among the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all shares of Voting

Preferred Stock as if, in each case, they had been converted to Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Restated Certificate immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event of the Corporation.

 

2.3                               Deemed Liquidation Events.

 

2.3.1                     Definition.  Each of the following events shall be considered a “Deemed Liquidation Event” unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Voting Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis (such holders required for the vote are referred to as the “Requisite Voting Preferred Holders”) elect otherwise by written notice sent to the Corporation at least five days prior to the effective date of any such event:

 

(a)                                 a merger or consolidation (each a “Combination”) in which (i) the Corporation is a constituent party or (ii) a subsidiary of the Corporation is a constituent party and the Corporation issues shares of its capital stock pursuant to such Combination, except any such Combination involving the Corporation or a subsidiary in which the shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to such Combination continue to represent, or are converted into or exchanged for equity securities that represent, immediately following such Combination, at least a majority, by voting power, of the equity securities of (1) the surviving or resulting party or (2) if the surviving or resulting party is a wholly owned subsidiary of another party immediately following such Combination, the parent of such surviving or resulting party; provided that, for the purpose of this Section 2.3.1, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Options (as defined in Section 5.1 below) outstanding immediately prior to such Combination or upon conversion of Convertible Securities (as defined in Section 5.1 below) outstanding immediately prior to such Combination shall be deemed to be outstanding immediately prior to such Combination and, if applicable, deemed to be converted or exchanged in such Combination on the same terms as the actual outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted or exchanged;

 

(b)                                 a transaction or series of related transactions in which a Person, or a group of Related Persons, acquires shares representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of the Corporation; provided that the foregoing shall exclude any transaction or series of related transactions principally for bona fide equity financing purposes in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation; or

 

(c)                                  the sale, lease, exclusive license, transfer or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by the Corporation or any subsidiary or subsidiaries of the Corporation, of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, (or, if substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole are held by one or more subsidiaries, the sale or disposition (whether by consolidation, merger, conversion or otherwise) of such subsidiaries of the Corporation), except where such sale, lease, exclusive license, transfer or other disposition is made to the Corporation or one or more wholly owned subsidiaries of the Corporation (an “Asset Disposition”).

The Corporation shall not have the power to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in Subsection 2.3.1 unless the agreement or plan of merger or consolidation for such transaction provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2.

 

2.3.2                     Allocation of Escrow.  In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event and unless the Requisite Voting Preferred Holders elect otherwise by written notice sent to the Corporation at least five days prior to the effective date of any such event, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation is placed into escrow and/or is payable to the stockholders of the Corporation subject to contingencies, the definitive agreement or escrow agreement entered into in such Deemed Liquidation Event shall provide that (a) the portion of such consideration that is not placed in escrow and not subject to any contingencies (the “Initial Consideration”) shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 (after the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2.1) as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event and (b) any additional consideration which becomes payable to the stockholders of the Corporation upon release from escrow or satisfaction of contingencies shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Sections 2.1 and 2.2 (after the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2.1) after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction.

 

2.3.3                     Amount Deemed Paid or Distributed.  The funds and assets deemed paid or distributed to the holders of capital stock of the Corporation upon any such Combination or Asset Distribution shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights or securities paid or distributed to such holders by the Corporation or the acquiring person, firm or other entity.  If the amount deemed paid or distributed under this Section 2.3.3 is made in property other than in cash, the value of such distribution shall be the fair market value of such property, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”); provided, however, that the following shall apply.  For securities not subject to investment letters or other similar restrictions on free marketability:

 

(i)                                     if traded on a securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such exchange over the 30-day period ending three days prior to the closing of such transaction;

 

(ii)                                  if actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the 30-day period ending three days prior to the closing of such transaction; or

 

(iii)                               if there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board.

 

The method of valuation of securities subject to investment letters or other similar restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder’s status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall take into account an appropriate discount (as determined in

 

6



 

good faith by the Board) from the market value as determined pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above so as to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof.

 

The foregoing methods for valuing non-cash consideration to be distributed in connection with a Combination or Asset Disposition shall, with the appropriate approval of the definitive agreements governing such Combination or Asset Disposition by the stockholders under the General Corporation Law and Section 3.3, be superseded by the determination of such value set forth in the definitive agreements governing such Combination or Asset Disposition.

 

3.                                      Voting.

 

3.1                               General Provisions; Limitation on Voting Rights of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.

 

3.1.1                     General Provisions. On any matter presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), each holder of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter.  Fractional votes shall not be permitted and any fractional voting rights available on an as-converted basis (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Preferred Stock held by each holder could be converted) shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward).  Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of this Restated Certificate, holders of Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class on an as-converted basis, shall have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the holders of Common Stock, and shall be entitled, notwithstanding any provision hereof, to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation.

 

3.1.2                     Limitation on Voting Rights of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Restated Certificate to the contrary, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock (and, prior to the closing of a Qualified IPO, any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock) shall not have voting rights of any kind, other than as may be required pursuant to Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law.

 

3.2                               Election of Directors.

 

3.2.1                     Election.  For so long as at least 312,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding (as such number is adjusted for stock splits and combinations of shares and for dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Stock in shares of such stock (other than the Stock Split)), the holders of record of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, exclusively and as a separate class, shall be entitled to elect up to three (3) directors of the Corporation (the “Series A Directors”). For so long as at least 312,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding (as such number is adjusted for stock splits and combinations of shares and for dividends paid on the Series B Preferred Stock in shares of stock, other than the Stock Split), the holders of record of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, exclusively and as a separate class,

 

7



 

shall be entitled to elect one director of the Corporation (the “Series B Director” and along with the Series A Directors, the “Preferred Stock Directors”).  The holders of record of the shares of Common Stock, exclusively and as a separate class, shall be entitled to elect two (2) directors of the Corporation (the “Common Directors”).  The holders of record of the shares of Common Stock and of every other class or series of voting stock (including the Preferred Stock), voting together as a single class on an as-converted basis, shall be entitled to elect the remaining number of directors of the Corporation (the “Remaining Directors”).

 

3.2.2                     Vacancies Not Caused by Removal.  If any vacancy in the office of any Common Director or Remaining Director exists, such vacancy may be filled (either contingently or otherwise) by the stockholders as specified in this Section 3.2 or by at least a majority of the members of the Board then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining member of the Board then in office, even if such directors or such sole remaining director were not elected by the holders of the class, classes or series that are entitled to elect a director or directors to office under the provisions of Section 3.2 (the “Specified Stock”) and such electing director or directors shall specify at the time of such election the specific vacant directorship being filled. A vacancy of any Preferred Stock Director may only be filled by the persons entitled to designate such Preferred Stock Director pursuant to that certain Voting Agreement dated as of the Original Issue Date of the Series B Preferred Stock by and between the Corporation and Investors named therein, as such agreement may be amended and/or restated from time to time.

 

3.2.3                     Vacancies Caused by Removal.  Any director elected as provided in the preceding sentences may be removed with or without cause by, and any vacancy in the office of any such removed director may be filled by, and only by, the affirmative vote of the holders of the shares of the Specified Stock entitled to elect such director or directors, given either at a special meeting of such stockholders duly called for that purpose or pursuant to a written consent of stockholders.

 

3.2.4                     Procedure.  At any meeting held for the purpose of electing a director, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Specified Stock entitled to elect such director shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of electing such director and the candidate or candidates to be elected by such Specified Stock shall be those who receive the highest number of affirmative votes (on an as-converted basis) of the outstanding shares of such Specified Stock.  In the case of an action taken by written consent without a meeting, the candidate or candidates to be elected by such Specified Stock shall be those who are elected by the written consent of the holders of a majority of such Specified Stock.

 

3.3                               Preferred Stock Protective Provisions.

 

3.3.1                     For so long as any shares of any series of Voting Preferred Stock remain outstanding (as such number is adjusted for stock splits and combinations of shares and for dividends paid on such series of Voting Preferred Stock in shares of such stock, other than the Stock Split), the Corporation shall not, either directly or indirectly by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, do any of the following without (in addition to any other vote required by law or this Restated Certificate) the written consent, or affirmative vote at a meeting and evidenced in writing, of the Requisite Voting Preferred Holders:

4.1                               Right to Convert.

 

4.1.1                     Conversion Ratio.  Each share of a series of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Original Issue Price for such series of Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price (as defined below) for such series of Preferred Stock in effect at the time of conversion.  The “Conversion Price” for each series of Preferred Stock shall initially (i.e. as of the Original Issue Date for such series) mean the Original Issue Price for such series of Preferred Stock.  Such initial Conversion Price, and the rate at which shares of Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.

 

4.1.2                     Notice of Conversion.  In order for a holder of Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Preferred Stock (or, if such registered holder alleges that any such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer agent for the Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of the Preferred Stock represented by such certificate or certificates and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent (a “Contingency Event”).  Such notice shall state such holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued.  If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.  The close of business on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its

 

12



 

own transfer agent) of such certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) and notice (or, if later, the date on which all Contingency Events have occurred) shall be the time of conversion (the “Conversion Time”), and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares represented by such certificate shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such time.  The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, (a) issue and deliver to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to such holder’s nominee(s), a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Common Stock, (b) pay in cash such amount as provided in Section 5.7.3 in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and (c) pay all declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of Preferred Stock converted.

 

4.1.3                     Effect of Voluntary Conversion.  All shares of Preferred Stock that shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor, to receive payment in lieu of any fraction of a share otherwise issuable upon such conversion as provided in Section 5.7.3 and to receive payment of any dividends declared but unpaid thereon.  Any shares of Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued.

4.2.1                     Automatic Conversion.

 

(a)                                 Upon either (A) the closing of the sale of shares of Common Stock to the public in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), resulting in at least $50,000,000 of gross proceeds to the Corporation at a price per share to the public of at least three (3.0) times the Original Issue Price of the Series B Preferred Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or the like, other than the Stock Split), provided that for such a public offering during the 2014 calendar year, such price per share need only be one and three-tenths (1.3) times the Original Issue Price of the Series B Preferred Stock, and for such a public offering during the 2015 calendar year, such price per share need only be two (2.0) times the Original Issue Price of the Series B Preferred Stock (each such public offering, a “Qualified IPO”), or (B) the date and time, or the occurrence of an event, specified by vote or written consent of the Requisite Voting Preferred Holders (the time of such closing or the date and time specified or the time of the event specified in such vote or written consent is referred to herein as the “Voting Preferred Mandatory Conversion Time”), (i) all outstanding shares of Voting Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock, at the applicable ratio described in Section 4.1.1 as the same may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with Section 5 and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Corporation.

 

(b)                                 Upon either (A) the closing of the sale of shares of Common Stock to the public in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities

(a)                                 All holders of record of shares of Preferred Stock shall be sent written notice of the Mandatory Conversion Time and the place designated for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Sections 4.2.1 and 10.  Unless otherwise provided in this Restated Certificate, such notice need not be sent in advance of the occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion Time.  Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall surrender such holder’s certificate or certificates for all such shares (or, if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice, and shall thereafter receive certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 4.2.

 

(b)                                 If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.  All rights with respect to the Preferred Stock converted pursuant to this Section 4.2, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote (other than as a holder of Common Stock), will terminate at the Mandatory Conversion Time (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender the certificates at or prior to such time), except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) therefor, to receive the items provided for in the next sentence of this Section 4.2.2(b).  As soon as practicable after the Mandatory Conversion Time and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to such holder’s nominee(s), a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with cash as provided in Section 5.7.3 in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and the payment of any declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of Preferred Stock converted.  Such converted Preferred Stock shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock (and the applicable series thereof) accordingly.

(c)                                  If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities that are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price of a series of Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of Section 5.1.3 (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 5.1.4) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject

 

17



 

thereto was equal to or greater than the Conversion Price of such series of Preferred Stock then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the Original Issue Date of such series of Preferred Stock), are revised after the Original Issue Date of such series of Preferred Stock as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (i) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (ii) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Section 5.1.2(a)) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

18



 

Termination and (ii) the first date on which the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation (calculated in accordance with Section 5.1.4(a)) in respect of all Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuances and of the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock on the Original Issue Date of Series A Preferred Stock equals or exceeds $40,000,000 (the “Series A-1 Adjustment Cap”), on each date that the Corporation issues any shares pursuant to an Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuance, the Conversion Price of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-thousandth of a cent) determined (by iterative calculation) according to the following formula:

 

CP4 = (CP3 * D) ÷ ((D ÷ E) * F).

CP2 = CP*  (A2 + B) ÷ (A2 + C2).

 

(c)                                  Adjustments for Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.  For (i) Preferred Stock other than Series A-1 Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, at any time after the applicable Original Issue Date of such series of Preferred Stock and (ii) Series A-1 Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, at any time after the Special Series A-1 Adjustment Termination Date or the Special Series B Adjustment Termination Date, as applicable, in the event the Corporation shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 5.1.2), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to such issue, then such Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-thousandth of a cent) determined according to the following formula:

 

CP2 = CP*  (A + B) ÷ (A + C).

“F” shall mean the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following the latest Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuance (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock);

 

provided, however, that, if on the Special Series A-1 Adjustment Termination Date the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation in respect of the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock issued on the Original Issue Date of the Series A Preferred Stock and all Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuances is greater than the Series A-1 Adjustment Cap, then (i) the adjustment in Section 5.1.3(a) shall be made as if the latest Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuance had been limited to an amount such that such aggregate consideration received exactly equaled the Series A-1 Adjustment Cap and the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock in “F” shall be deemed to be the number of shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock that would have been actually outstanding if the latest Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuance had been limited to an amount such that such aggregate consideration received exactly equaled the Series A-1 Adjustment Cap and (ii) the adjustment in Section 5.1.3(c) (if any) shall then be made as of the latest Additional Common or Preferred Stock Issuance were equal to the amount by which the aggregate consideration received as a result of such issuance exceeds the Series A-1 Adjustment Cap and the number of shares referred to in “A,” “B” and “C” shall be deemed to be the number of shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock that would have been actually issued or outstanding (as the case may be) after taking into account the adjustments resulting from the application of Section 5.1.3(a), as limited by clause “(i)”, and assuming that the only Additional Shares of Common Stock being issued are those that correspond to the portion of the consideration received in excess of the Series A-1 Preferred Adjustment Cap.  For the avoidance of doubt, if any aggregate consideration results from the issuance of Exempted Securities, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 5.1.3(c).

 

(e)                                  Adjustment Following Repurchase or Redemption of Shares. If the Corporation shall redeem or repurchase any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock issued prior to the Series A-1 Adjustment Termination Date, either pursuant to an agreement with any Service Provider giving the Corporation the right to repurchase shares at the original cost thereof upon the termination of services or as expressly authorized in the Restated Certificate, as then in effect, then for the purposes of calculating the Series A-1 Preferred Stock’s Conversion Price pursuant to Section 5.1.3(a), such shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be deemed to have never been issued by the Corporation and Conversion Price for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be recalculated on that basis.

 

(f)                                   No Duplication. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the adjustments set forth in Section 5.1.3(a) shall not be duplicative of any of the adjustments set forth in Sections 5.2 through 5.6 hereof.

5.1.4                     Determination of Consideration.  For purposes of this Section 5.1, the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue or deemed issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

 

(a)                                 Cash and Property:  Such consideration shall:

 

(i)                         insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Corporation, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest;

 

(ii)                      insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board; and

 

(iii)                   in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in good faith by the Board.

 

(b)                                 Options and Convertible Securities.  The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 5.1.2, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing

 

(i)                         the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by

 

(ii)                                  the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

5.1.5                     Multiple Closing Dates.  In the event the Corporation shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price of a series of Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of Section 5.1.2 and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than 120 days after the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, the Conversion Price of such series of Preferred Stock shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such

 

22



 

issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period that are a part of such transaction or series of related transaction).

 

5.2                               Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for a series of Preferred Stock effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock (other than the Stock Split), the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for a series of Preferred Stock combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Any adjustment under this Section 5.2 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

5.3                               Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions.  In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for a series of Preferred Stock shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Common Stock in additional shares of Common Stock (other than the Stock Split), then and in each such event the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying such Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

 

(a)                                 the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

 

(b)                                 the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, such Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 5.3 as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and (ii) no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of such series of Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as they would have received if all outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

 

23



 

5.4                               Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions.  In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for a series of Preferred Stock shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than a distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock, including the Stock Split), then and in each such event the holders of such series of Preferred Stock shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities in an amount equal to the amount of such securities as they would have received if all outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

 

5.5                               Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution.  If, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date for a series of Preferred Stock, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such series of Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock of the Corporation, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than by a stock split or combination, dividend, distribution, merger or consolidation covered by Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 or 5.6 or by Section 2.3 regarding a Deemed Liquidation Event, including the Stock Split), then in any such event each holder of such series of Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such stock into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change.

 

5.6                               Adjustment for Merger or Consolidation.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, if there shall occur any consolidation or merger involving the Corporation in which the Common Stock (but not a series of Preferred Stock) is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Sections 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5), then, following any such consolidation or merger, provision shall be made that each share of such series of Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon conversion of one share of such series of Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions in Section 4 and this Section 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in Section 4 and this Section 5 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such series of Preferred Stock.

 

5.7                               General Conversion Provisions.

 

5.7.1                     Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price of a series of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5, the Corporation at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 15 days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of such series of Preferred Stock a certificate

 

24



 

setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which such series of Preferred Stock is convertible) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

 

5.7.2                     Reservation of Shares.  The Corporation shall at all times while any share of Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to this Restated Certificate.  Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price of a series of Preferred Stock below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such series of Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.

 

5.7.3                     Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock.  In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair value of a share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board.  Whether or not fractional shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

 

5.7.4                     No Further Adjustment after Conversion.  Upon any conversion of shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock, no adjustment to the Conversion Price of the applicable series of Preferred Stock shall be made with respect to the converted shares for any declared but unpaid dividends on such series of Preferred Stock or on the Common Stock delivered upon conversion.

 

5.7.5                     Taxes.  The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock.  The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares of Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid.

6.                                      Redemption at Request of Requisite Voting Preferred Holders.

 

6.1                               Request for Redemption.  Unless prohibited by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, shares of each series of Voting Preferred Stock shall be redeemed by the Corporation at the greater of (x) a price equal the applicable Original Issue Price per share for such series (less any amounts distributed in respect of the Voting Preferred Stock in connection with Partial Liquidation Events), plus all declared but unpaid dividends thereon and (y) the fair market value as determined by the Board in good faith of such series of Preferred Stock (the applicable price or value so determined for each such series of Preferred Stock, a “Redemption Price”), in three annual installments commencing not more than 60 days after receipt by the Corporation at any time on or after the seventh anniversary of the Original Issue Date for the Series B Preferred Stock, from the Requisite Voting Preferred Holders, of written notice requesting redemption of all shares of the Voting Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Request”).  Upon receipt of a Redemption Request, the Corporation shall apply all of its assets to any such redemption, and to no other corporate purpose, except to the extent prohibited by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders.  The date of each such installment shall be referred to as a “Redemption Date”.  On each Redemption Date, the Corporation shall redeem, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of shares of Voting Preferred Stock owned by each holder, that number of outstanding shares of Voting Preferred Stock determined by dividing (i) the total number of shares of Voting Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Redemption Date by (ii) the number of remaining Redemption Dates (including the Redemption Date to which such calculation applies). If on any Redemption Date Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders prevents the Corporation from redeeming all shares of Voting Preferred Stock to be redeemed, the Corporation shall first redeem the maximum number shares of Series B Preferred Stock that it may redeem consistent with such law, apportioned ratably among the holders of such shares, and once all shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been redeemed, shall then shall redeem the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that it may redeem consistent with such law, apportioned ratably among the holders of such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares, in such order, as soon as it may lawfully do so under such law.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Series B Preferred Stock must be redeemed in full before any shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed.

 

6.2                               Redemption Notice.  The Corporation shall send written notice of the mandatory redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) to each holder of record of Voting Preferred Stock not less than 40 days prior to each Redemption Date.  Each Redemption Notice shall state:

 

(a)                                 the number of shares of Voting Preferred Stock held by the holder that the Corporation shall redeem on the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice;

 

(b)                                 the Redemption Date and the applicable Redemption Prices;

 

(c)                                  the date upon which the holder’s right to convert such shares terminates (as determined in accordance with Subsection 4.1); and

 

26



 

(d)                                 that the holder is to surrender to the Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated, his, her or its certificate or certificates representing the shares of Voting Preferred Stock to be redeemed.

 

6.3                               Surrender of Certificates; Payment.  On or before the applicable Redemption Date, each holder of shares of Voting Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, unless such holder has exercised his, her or its right to convert such shares as provided in Section 4, shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares (or, if such registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated in the Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Redemption Price for such shares shall be payable to the order of the person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof.  In the event less than all of the shares of Voting Preferred Stock represented by a certificate are redeemed, a new certificate representing the unredeemed shares of Voting Preferred Stock shall promptly be issued to such holder.

 

6.4                               Rights Subsequent to Redemption.  If the Redemption Notice shall have been duly given, and if on the applicable Redemption Date the Redemption Price payable upon redemption of the shares of Voting Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date is paid or tendered for payment or deposited with an independent payment agent so as to be available therefor in a timely manner, then notwithstanding that the certificates evidencing any of the shares of Voting Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered, dividends with respect to such shares of Voting Preferred Stock shall cease to accrue after such Redemption Date and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith after the Redemption Date terminate, except only the right of the holders to receive the Redemption Price without interest upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor.

 

7.                                      No Reissuance of Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Preferred Stock.  Any shares of Preferred Stock that are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries shall be automatically and immediately retired and shall not be reissued, sold or transferred.  Neither the Corporation nor any of its subsidiaries may exercise any voting or other rights, powers and preferences granted to the holders of Preferred Stock following the close of business on the third day preceding the Redemption Date for such shares.

 

8.                                      Waiver.  Any of the rights, powers, preferences and other terms of a series of the Preferred Stock or the Preferred Stock as a class that are set forth herein may be waived on behalf of all holders of such series of Preferred Stock or the Preferred Stock as a class by the affirmative written consent or vote of (i) in the case of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of at least a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock as a class that are then outstanding, (ii) in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of at least a majority of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock as a class that are then outstanding, (iii) in the case of any other series of Preferred Stock, the holders of at least a majority of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock or such Preferred Stock as a class that are then outstanding, treating any convertible Preferred Stock as-if converted to Common Stock.

 

9.                                      Notice of Record Date.  In the event:

 

27



 

(a)                                 the Corporation shall set a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other security; or

 

(b)                                 of any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Corporation, or any Deemed Liquidation Event; or

 

(c)                                  of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Corporation,

 

then, and in each such case, the Corporation will send or cause to be sent to the holders of the Preferred Stock a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the record date for such dividend, distribution or subscription right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or subscription right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock.  Such notice shall be sent (A) at least 20 days prior to the earlier of the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice or (B) such fewer number of days as may be approved the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock acting as a single class on an as-converted basis.

 

10.                               Notices.  Except as otherwise provided herein, any notice required or permitted by the provisions of this Article IV to be given to a holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the post office address last shown on the records of the Corporation for such holder, given by the holder to the Corporation for the purpose of notice or given by electronic communication in compliance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law, and shall be deemed sent upon such mailing or electronic transmission.  If no such address appears or is given, notice shall be deemed given at the place where the principal executive office of the Corporation is located.
