The Acquiring Entity Stock utilized to make the Transaction Payment, if any, shall have the same rights, preferences and restrictions (including whether the issuance or sale of such Acquiring Entity Stock is registered or entitled to registration rights under the Securities Act) as the Acquiring Entity Stock issued to the holders of Common Stock in the Liquidity Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Corporation nor the acquiring entity shall be obligated to deliver certificates evidencing the Acquiring Entity Stock or other property deliverable to a Preferred Holder as a result of the Liquidity Event unless and until the certificates representing shares of Preferred Stock held by such Preferred Holder are either delivered to the Corporation or the acquiring entity, or their respective transfer agents, as the Corporation and the acquiring entity may require, duly endorsed in blank for transfer, or the holder certifies in writing to the Corporation or the acquiring entity, or their respective transfer agents, as the Corporation and the acquiring entity may require, that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation or such acquiring entity to indemnify the Corporation and/or such acquiring entity from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates.

(i) Any securities (including any Acquiring Entity Stock) included in the Proceeds shall be valued as follows:
a) If traded on a securities exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such exchange or system over the twenty (20) trading-day period ending three (3) trading days prior to the closing of the Acquisition or Asset Transfer;
b) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices (whichever is applicable) over the twenty (20) trading-day period ending three (3) trading days prior to the closing of the Acquisition or Asset Transfer; and
c) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith, by the Board on the date such determination is made.

(b) The foregoing methods for valuing Proceeds to be distributed or delivered in connection with a Liquidity Event shall, upon approval by the shareholders of the definitive agreements governing the Liquidity Event, be superseded by any determination of such value set forth in the definitive agreements governing such Liquidity Event.
4.2.3.Contingent Consideration. In the event of a Liquidity Event, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation is placed into escrow or is payable to the stockholders of the Corporation subject to contingencies, the definitive acquisition agreement relating thereto shall provide that (i) 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 this ARTICLE IVC.4.2 as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Liquidity Event and (ii) 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 this ARTICLE IVC.4.2 after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction.

N(0) + N(1) | |||
Where:
N(0) = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (calculated on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately prior to the Issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents.
N(1) = the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration, if any, (including the aggregate Net Consideration Per Share with respect to the issuance of Common Stock Equivalents) received or receivable by the Corporation for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so Issued or deemed to be Issued would purchase at the Applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance.
N(2) = the number of such additional shares of Common Stock so Issued or deemed to be Issued.
The provisions of this ARTICLE IVC.6.3.1 may be waived as to (i) all shares of Series B Preferred Stock in any instance upon the written agreement of the holders of at least 662/3% of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) all shares of Series A Preferred Stock in any instance upon the written agreement of the holders of at least 662/3% of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.

In case any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents shall be Issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Corporation shall be deemed to be the fair value of such consideration as determined in the manner provided in ARTICLE IVC.4.2.2(a) and ARTICLE IVC.4.2.2(b), without deduction of any expenses incurred or any
-11-
underwriting commissions or concessions paid or allowed by the Corporation in connection therewith. In case Common Stock Equivalents shall be Issued in connection with the Issue of other securities of the Corporation, together comprising one integral transaction in which no special consideration is allocated to such Common Stock Equivalents by the parties thereto, the allocation of the aggregate consideration between such other securities and the Common Stock Equivalents shall be as determined in good faith by the Board.
(b) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, Expiration of Common Stock Equivalents. The Issuance of any Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed an Issuance of shares of Common Stock, and no further adjustments shall be made upon exercise, conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents. If, as, and when a Common Stock Equivalent expires or is canceled without being exercised, the Applicable Conversion Price effective immediately upon such cancellation or expiration shall be equal to the Applicable Conversion Price that would have been in effect (i) had the expired or canceled Common Stock Equivalent not been Issued, and (ii) had the adjustments made to the Applicable Conversion Price since the date of Issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent been made to the Applicable Conversion Price which would have been in effect had the expired or canceled Common Stock Equivalent not been Issued.

(d) Change in Net Consideration Per Share of Common Stock Equivalents. Should the Net Consideration Per Share of any such Common Stock Equivalents be decreased from time to time other than as a result of the application of anti-dilution provisions triggered by the price/consideration of a subsequent Issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents by the Corporation, then, commencing upon, and with respect to, a conversion occurring after the effectiveness of each such change, the Applicable Conversion Price shall be that which would have been obtained (i) had the adjustments made pursuant to ARTICLE IVC.6.3.1(b) upon the Issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents been made upon the basis of the new Net Consideration Per Share of such securities, and (ii) had the adjustments made to the Applicable Conversion Price since the date of issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent been made to such Applicable Conversion Price as adjusted pursuant to clause (i) above.

-12-
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the Issuance of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been Issued upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(f) Exceptions to Anti-Dilution Adjustments; Basket for Reserved Employee Shares.

-13-
immediately after such Extraordinary Common Stock Event and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Applicable Conversion Price of the Preferred Stock, which, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive Extraordinary Common Stock Event or Events. An “Extraordinary Common Stock Event” shall mean (a) the Issue of additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding shares of Common Stock, (b) a subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) a combination or reverse stock split of outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock.
6.3.3.Adjustment Upon Reorganization or Reclassification. If the Common Stock shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any other class or classes of capital stock, whether by capital reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than pursuant to a stock split or combination of the Common Stock), then in each such event, each Preferred Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock, such shares or securities as may be Issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately receivable upon such conversion had such reorganization or reclassification not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Applicable Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights. The provision for such conversion right to the Preferred Holders shall be a condition precedent to the consummation by the Corporation of any such transaction, unless the election described in the following sentence is made. In the case of a transaction which constitutes a Liquidity Event, the shares of Preferred Stock shall be treated in the manner provided in ARTICLE IVC.4.2, unless the holders of at least 662/3% of the then outstanding Preferred Stock provide notice to the Corporation in accordance with ARTICLE IVC.4.2 of their election to not treat such Liquidity Event as a Liquidation. If such election is made, however, the provisions of this ARTICLE IVC.6.3.3, and not ARTICLE IVC.4.2, shall apply.
6.3.4.Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Applicable Conversion Price, then in each such case the Corporation shall give written notice thereof to each Preferred Holder which notice shall state the Applicable Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the method upon which such calculation is based.
6.3.5.Status of Converted or Repurchased Preferred Stock. Any shares of Preferred Stock cancelled pursuant to ARTICLE IVC.4.2, converted into Common Stock or acquired by the Corporation by reason of redemption, purchase or otherwise shall be cancelled and shall not be subject to reissuance and the capital of the Corporation shall be automatically reduced by a corresponding amount. Upon the cancellation of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the provisions of the designation of Series B Preferred Stock shall terminate and have no further force and effect, and upon the cancellation of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the provisions of the designation of Series A Preferred Stock shall terminate and have no further force and effect.
-14-
6.3.6.Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof,providedthat the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the shares of Preferred Stock which is being converted.
6.3.7.Closing of Books. The Corporation will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of any shares of Preferred Stock or of any shares of Common Stock Issued or Issuable upon the conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable securities or tax laws.
6.3.8.Exercise Of Conversion Privilege; Delivery of Certificates. To exercise its conversion privilege, a Preferred Holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing the shares being converted to the Corporation at its principal office, or, if such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a Preferred Holder shall deliver a certificate executed by such Preferred Holder certifying to such fact, along with an agreement satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by the Corporation in connection with such certificate, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at that office that such holder elects to convert such shares. The date when such written notice of exercise of the conversion privilege is received by the Corporation, together with the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Preferred Stock being converted, shall be the “Conversion Date.” Following a Mandatory Conversion Event, each Preferred Holder shall, upon receipt of notice of such event from the Corporation, surrender the certificate or certificates (or certification and indemnity agreement as described above) to the Corporation at the principal office of the Corporation, together with a notice containing the information specified below. The notice given with respect to any conversion exercise or Mandatory Conversion Event shall also state the name or names (with address or addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be issued. The certificate or certificates for shares of Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by proper assignment thereof to the Corporation or in blank. As promptly as practicable after the Conversion Date for the Preferred Stock being converted, or the date on which the Corporation receives a holder’s certificate(s) (or certification and indemnity agreement as described above) with respect to a Mandatory Conversion Event, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to the holder of the shares of Preferred Stock being converted, or on its written order, such certificate or certificates as it may request for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such shares of Preferred Stock in accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE IVC.6, and cash, as provided in ARTICLE IVC.6.3.9 in respect of any fraction of a share of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. At such time as any conversion of shares of Preferred Stock is effective, the rights of the holder as holder of the converted shares of Preferred Stock shall cease and the person(s) in whose name(s) any certificate(s) for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby, regardless of whether the certificates that represented the converted shares of Preferred Stock have been surrendered by the holder thereof.
-15-
6.3.9.Fractional Shares; Distributions; Partial Conversion. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be Issued upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any cash distributions on the shares of Common Stock Issued upon such conversion. In case the number of shares of Preferred Stock represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered pursuant to ARTICLE IVC.6.1 exceeds the number of shares of Preferred Stock converted, the Corporation shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the holder, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Preferred Stock represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered that are not to be converted. If any fractional shares of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this ARTICLE IVC.6.3.9, be delivered upon such conversion, the Corporation, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the holder surrendering the shares of Preferred Stock for conversion an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such fractional share as determined in good faith by the Board.
7. Restriction and Limitation On Corporate Action. For so long as not less than 5% of the Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Preferred Holders shall vote as a single class on, and the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 662/3% of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be required to authorize any action by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly through a merger, reorganization, consolidation or other means, to:

-17-
Preferred Stock as agreed upon by the Board (excluding any Series B Directors (the “Series B Disinterested Directors”)) and the holders of at least 662/3%of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock or, if the Series B Disinterested Directors and the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock can not agree upon such fair market value, then such fair market value shall be determined in good faith by an independent appraiser mutually selected by a the Series B Holders and the Series B Disinterested Directors (the total amount of such payment is hereafter referred to as the “Series B Redemption Price”). If the requisite Series B Holders and the Series B Disinterested Directors can not agree upon an independent appraiser to determine the fair market value of a share of Series B Preferred Stock, then the requisite Series B Holders, on the one hand, and the Series B Disinterested Directors, on the other hand, may each engage their own independent appraisers.
