OF

 

SPECIAL VOTING STOCK

 

OF

 

LEAP THERAPEUTICS, INC.

 

Pursuant to Section 151(g) of the

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

 

Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation duly organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:

 

The board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) or an applicable committee of the Board of Directors, in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and Bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”) and applicable law, adopted the following resolution on December 31, 2019 creating a series of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation consisting of one (1) share, designated as “Special Voting Stock”, and hereby fixes the powers (including the voting powers), preferences and rights of the shares of such series, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as provided in this Certificate of Designation of Special Voting Stock of the Corporation to be filed with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware:

 

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws and applicable law, a series of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation be and hereby is created, and that the designation and number of shares of such series, and the voting and other powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the shares of such series, are as follows:

 

1.      Number of Shares; Designation. Of the ten million (10,000,000) shares of the Corporation’s authorized preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), one (1) share is designated as “Special Voting Stock,” with the rights and preferences set forth below. Only one person or entity is entitled to be designated as the owner of all of the Special Voting Stock (the “Holder”), in whose name the initial certificate representing the Special Voting Stock shall be issued. Any Transfer of the Special Voting Stock to a different Holder must be approved in advance by the Corporation; provided, however, that the Holder shall have the right to Transfer the Special Voting Stock to any affiliate of Holder or nominee of Holder, without the approval of the Corporation.

 

2.      Rank. The Special Voting Stock shall rank junior to all other series of Preferred Stock as to the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and senior to the Common Stock as to the distribution of assets upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

 

3.      Dividends. The Holder of the Special Voting Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends in respect of such shares.

 

 

 

 

4.      Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holder of the Special Voting Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution to the holders of Common Stock, an amount equal to $1.00.

 

5.      Voting Rights.

 

(a)               Unless otherwise provided by any federal or state law, the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, or the provisions of Section 5(b) hereof, the Holder of the Special Voting Stock shall not have the right to vote for the election of directors or on any other matters presented to the Stockholders for action by their written consent or at any annual or special meeting of the Stockholders.

 

(b)               At any time when the Holder, together with all of its Affiliates and Associates holds at least 5% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder of the Special Voting Stock shall be entitled to designate one (1) individual as a director on the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Series A Director”). The Series A Director may be removed at any time as a director on the Board of Directors (with or without cause) upon, and only upon, the request of the Holder of the Special Voting Stock effecting such removal. In the event that a vacancy is created on the Board of Directors at any time due to the death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal of the Series A Director, then the Holder, and only the Holder, of the Special Voting Stock shall have the right to designate an individual to fill such vacancy. In the event that the Holder of the Special Voting Stock shall fail to designate a representative to fill the vacant Series A Director seat on the Board of Directors, then such Board of Directors seat shall remain vacant until such time as the Holder of the Special Voting Stock designates an individual to fill such seat in accordance with this Section 5(b), and during any period where such seat remains vacant, the Board of Directors nonetheless shall be deemed duly constituted. For the avoidance of doubt, even if there are no vacancies on the Board of Directors, so long as the Holder meets the qualifications set forth the first sentence of this Paragraph 5(b), the Holder, shall be entitled to designate the Series A Director as set forth herein, and the size of the Board shall be deemed to have been increased by one director to accommodate such election.

 

(c)               The delivery by the Holder of notice to the Secretary of the Corporation of any action taken by the Holder under this Certificate of Designation of Special Voting Stock shall be effective immediately upon delivery of such notice.

 

6.      Covenants

 

(a)               The Corporation shall not amend, alter, change or repeal the preferences, privileges, special rights or other powers of the Special Voting Stock so as to adversely affect the Special Voting Stock, without the vote or written consent of the Holder.

 

(b)               So long as the Special Voting Stock is outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without first obtaining the approval by vote or written consent of Holder, which approval may be withheld in the Holder’s sole and absolute discretion: change, amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, or create a new series of Preferred Stock or issue any other securities, or agree to any provision in any agreement, to the extent any such action would adversely affect the powers, obligations, preferences or relative, participating, optional, special or other rights of the Holder of Special Voting Stock or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the Holder of Special Voting Stock.

 

2

 

 

(c)               For clarity, any increase in the total number of directors that constitutes the entire Board of Directors that is not effected for the primary purpose of diluting the vote of the Series A Director, whether pursuant to any action taken by the Board of Directors or the stockholders of the Company, pursuant to an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (other than an amendment of this Certificate of Designation) or Bylaws, pursuant to the creation or issuance of any new series of Preferred Stock or other securities of the Company, pursuant to any agreement, pursuant to merger or consolidation or pursuant to any other means, shall not be deemed or treated (i) as an amendment, alteration, change or repeal of any of the preferences, privileges, special rights or other powers of the Special Voting Stock for purposes of Section 6(a) or otherwise and (ii) to adversely affect the powers, obligations, preferences or relative, participating, optional, special or other rights of the Holder of Special Voting Stock or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the Holder of Special Voting Stock for purposes of Section 6(b) or otherwise; and, therefore, any such increase in the total number of directors that constitutes the entire Board of Directors shall not require the approval, by vote or written consent, of the Holder.

 

7.      Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation (an affidavit of the registered Holder shall be satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of any certificate evidencing the one outstanding share of Voting Preferred Stock, the Corporation, at its expense, shall execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of like kind representing the one outstanding share of Voting Preferred Stock represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

 

8.      Interpretation; Certain Definitions.
