At any time when at least 2,953,735 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote required by law or the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation, without the written consent or affirmative vote of the Requisite Series C Investors, the Corporation shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, either directly or indirectly:
(i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or other governing or constituent documents in any manner which alters or changes the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series C Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely, whether any such amendment, alteration or repeal shall be by means of amendment to such Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or other governing or constituent documents or by merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise;
(ii) purchase or redeem or pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution on, any shares other than the Preferred Stock as expressly authorized herein, or permit any Subsidiary of the Corporation to take any such action, except for (A) dividends on the Exchangeable Common Shares payable pursuant to their terms and the Support Agreement, (B) dividends or other distributions payable on the Standard Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Standard Common Stock, (C) the issuance of shares of Standard Common Stock on the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of the Exchangeable Common Shares (including without limitation, Exchangeable Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Subsidiary Warrants), (D) the purchase of shares of Standard Common Stock or Exchangeable Common Shares
12
(including without limitation, Exchangeable Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Subsidiary Warrants) by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation from former employees, officers, directors, consultants or other persons who performed services for the Corporation or any Subsidiary who acquired such shares directly from the Corporation, if each such purchase is made pursuant to contractual rights held by the Corporation relating to the termination of employment or other business relationship of such former employee, officer, director, consultant or other person and the purchase price does not exceed the original issue price paid by such former employee, officer, director, consultant or other person for such shares,provided however, that such purchase is approved by a majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors (including at least two of the Preferred Directors) or (E) the purchase of shares of Standard Common Stock or Exchangeable Common Shares (including without limitation, Exchangeable Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Subsidiary Warrants) by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation from former executive officers or directors of the Corporation or any Subsidiary,provided however, that such purchase is approved by a majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors (including at least two of the Preferred Directors); or
(iii) except as expressly set forth in this Subsection 3(c), create, or authorize the creation of, or issue or sell, or authorize the issuance or sale of, any debt security, including, without limitation, any debt security which by its terms is convertible into or exchangeable for any equity security of the Corporation and any security of the Corporation which is a combination of debt and equity if the aggregate amount of debt incurred by the Corporation pursuant to such debt security and all other related debt securities exceeds $5,000,000 in the aggregate, or permit any Subsidiary to take any such action.
4. Optional Conversion. The holders of Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”):
(a) Right to Convert. Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Standard Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Series A Preferred Original Issue Price by the Series A Preferred Conversion Price (as defined below) in the case of the Series A Preferred Stock, by dividing the Series B Preferred Original Issue Price by the Series B Preferred Conversion Price (as defined below) in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock, and by dividing the Series C Preferred Original Issue Price by the Series C Preferred Conversion Price (as defined below) in the case of the Series C Preferred Stock each in effect at the time of conversion. The “Series A Preferred Conversion Price” shall initially be equal to the Series A Preferred Original Issue Price, the “Series B Preferred Conversion Price” shall initially be equal to the Series B Preferred Original Issue Price and the “Series C Preferred Conversion Price” shall initially be equal to the Series C Preferred Original Issue Price. Such initial Series A Preferred Conversion Price, such initial Series B Preferred Conversion Price and such Series C Conversion Price (each, as applicable, a “Preferred Conversion Price”), and the rate at which shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Standard Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment as provided below.
13
In the event of a notice of redemption of any shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the Conversion Rights of the shares designated for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the last full day preceding the date fixed for redemption, unless the redemption price is not paid on such redemption date, in which case the Conversion Rights for such shares shall continue until such price is paid in full.
(b) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Standard 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 market value of the Standard Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. 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 Standard Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Standard Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.
(c) Mechanics of Conversion.
(i) In order for a holder of Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Standard Common Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Preferred Stock (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), 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 shares of the Preferred Stock represented by such certificate or certificates and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent. Such notice shall state such holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for the Standard 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 of such certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) and notice (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) shall be the time of conversion (the “Conversion Time”), and the Standard Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock represented by such certificate shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to such holder’s nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Standard Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share.
(ii) The Corporation shall at all times when the Preferred Stock and Exchangeable Common Shares shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred Stock and issuing upon the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation
14
or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of the Exchangeable Common Shares (including without limitation, Exchangeable Common Shares issued upon exercise of the Subsidiary Warrants), such number of its duly authorized Standard Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and the issuance upon the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of all Exchangeable Common Shares; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Standard Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and the issuance upon the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of all Exchangeable Common Shares, the Corporation shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Standard 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 the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation.
(iii) All shares of Preferred Stock which 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, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Standard Common Stock in exchange therefor and to receive payment of any dividends declared before the Conversion Time but unpaid thereon. Any shares of Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and shall not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation (without the need for stockholder action) may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock accordingly.
(iv) Upon any such conversion, no adjustment to the applicable Preferred Conversion Price shall be made for any accrued and/or declared but unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion or on the Standard Common Stock delivered upon conversion.
(v) 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 Standard Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to thisSection 4. 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 Standard 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.
(d) Adjustments to Preferred Conversion Price for Diluting Issues.
(i) Special Definitions. For purposes of thisSection 4, the following definitions shall apply:
15
(A) “Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Standard Common Stock or Convertible Securities and Subsidiary Warrants.
(B) “Series C Preferred Original Issue Date” shall mean the date on which the first share of Series C Preferred Stock was issued.
(C) “Convertible Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Standard Common Stock (including, without limitation, convertible debentures issued by the Corporation), but excluding Options.
(D) “Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Standard Common Stock issued (or, pursuant toSubsection 4(d)(iii)below, deemed to be issued) by the Corporation after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date, other than the following (“Exempted Securities”):

(III) (i) shares of Standard Common Stock or Convertible Securities actually issued upon the exercise of Options or (ii) shares of Standard Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, in each case provided such issuance is pursuant to the terms of such Option or Convertible Security;
(IV) shares of Standard Common Stock issued or issuable on the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of the Exchangeable Common Shares (including without limitation, Exchangeable Common Shares issued upon exercise of the Subsidiary Warrants);
16
(V) shares of Standard Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued to banks, equipment lessors or other financial institutions, or to real property lessors, pursuant to a debt financing, equipment leasing or real property leasing transaction approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation; or
(VI) shares of Standard Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or other reorganization or to a joint venture agreement or other strategic transaction, provided, that such transactions are entered into primarily for non-equity financing purposes and are approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
(ii) No Adjustment of Preferred Conversion Price. No adjustment to any Preferred Conversion Price shall be made as the result of the issuance of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock if: (a) the consideration per share (determined pursuant toSubsection 4(d)(v)) for such Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued by the Corporation is equal to or greater than the applicable Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock, or (b) prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, the Corporation receives written notice from (i) with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of at least sixty percent (60%) of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class and on an as-converted basis, and (ii) with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock, the Requisite Series C Investors, agreeing that no such adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock.
(iii) Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock.
(A) If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive Exempted Securities pursuant toSubsections 4(d)(i)(D)(I), (II), or (III)) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Standard Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.
(B) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to any Preferred Conversion Price pursuant to the
17
terms ofSubsection 4(d)(iv) below, are revised (either automatically pursuant to the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Standard Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, the applicable Preferred Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Preferred Conversion Price as would have obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause (B) shall have the effect of increasing any Preferred Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security, or (ii) the Preferred Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.
(C) If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive Exempted Securities pursuant toSubsections 4(d)(i)(D)(I), (II), or (III)), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to any Preferred Conversion Price pursuant to the terms ofSubsection 4(d)(iv) below (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant toSubsection 4(d)(v) hereof) of the Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than the applicable Preferred Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date), are revised after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date (either automatically pursuant to the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Standard Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended, and the Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided inSubsection 4(d)(iii)(A) above) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.
(D) Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to any Preferred Conversion Price pursuant to the terms ofSubsection 4(d)(iv) below, the applicable Preferred Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Preferred Conversion Price as would have obtained had such Option or Convertible Security never been issued.
(iv) Adjustment of Preferred Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Standard Common
18
Stock (including Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant toSubsection 4(d)(iii)), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the applicable Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then such Preferred Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:
CP2 = CP1 * (A + B) ÷ (A + C)
For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:
| (A) | | “CP2” shall mean the Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock; |
|
| (B) | | “CP1” shall mean the Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock; |
|
| (C) | | “A” shall mean the number of shares of Standard Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock, including shares of Standard Common Stock issuable on the redemption, retraction, exchange, call or other purchase by the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation of the Exchangeable Common Shares; |
|
| (D) | | “B” shall mean the number of shares of Standard Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation in respect of such issue by CP1); and |
|
| (E) | | “C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock issued in such transaction. |
(v) Determination of Consideration. For purposes of thisSubsection 4(d), the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue of any Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock shall be computed as follows:
| (A) | | Cash and Property: Such consideration shall: |
19
(I) insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Corporation;
(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 of Directors of the Corporation; and
(III) in the event Additional Shares of Standard 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 inclauses (I) and (II) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
(B) Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant toSubsection 4(d)(iii), 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 Standard 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.
(vi) Multiple Closing Dates. In the event the Corporation shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to any Preferred Conversion Price pursuant to the terms ofSubsection 4(d)(iv) above, and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than 30 days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, such Preferred Conversion Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any adjustments as a result of any subsequent issuances within such period).
(e) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Standard Common Stock without a comparable subdivision of the Preferred Stock or combine the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock without a comparable combination of the Standard Common Stock, the applicable Preferred Conversion
20
Price in effect immediately before that subdivision or combination shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Standard 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 Standard Common Stock outstanding. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Standard Common Stock without a comparable combination of the Preferred Stock or effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock without a comparable subdivision of the Standard Common Stock, the applicable Preferred Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination or subdivision shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Standard 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 Standard Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this subsection shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
(f) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Standard Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Standard Common Stock in Additional Shares of Standard Common Stock, then and in each such event the applicable Preferred Conversion Price 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 the applicable Preferred Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:
(1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Standard Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and
(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Standard 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 Standard Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;
provided, however, that 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, the applicable Preferred Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Preferred Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this subsection as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.
(g) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Series C Preferred Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than a distribution of shares of Standard Common Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Standard Common Stock) or in other property and the provisions of
21
Section 1 do not apply to such dividend or distribution, then and in each such event the holders of Preferred Stock shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of such capital stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities or other property as they would have received if all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of Standard Common Stock on the date of such event.
(h) Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. Subject to the provisions ofSubsection 2(c), if there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or amalgamation involving the Corporation in which shares of Standard Common Stock (but not shares of Preferred Stock) are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered bySubsections(e), (f) or(g) of thisSection 4), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or amalgamation, each share of Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of shares of Standard 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 shares of Standard Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon conversion of one share of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or amalgamation would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions in thisSection 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in thisSection 4 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the applicable Preferred Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock.
(i) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of any Preferred Conversion Price pursuant to thisSection 4, the Corporation at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which the shares of Preferred Stock are convertible) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any holder of Preferred Stock (but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the applicable Preferred Conversion Price then in effect, and (ii) the number of shares of Standard Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of such series of Preferred Stock.
(j) Notice of Record Date. In the event:
(i) the Corporation shall take a record of the holders of its Standard Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time issuable upon conversion of the
22
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 stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right; or
(ii) of any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any reclassification of the Standard Common Stock, or any Deemed Liquidation Event; or
(iii) 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 Preferred Stock a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the record date for such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, 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 shares of Standard Common Stock (or such other shares or securities at the time issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Standard Common Stock (or such other shares or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, amalgamation, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Preferred Stock and the Standard Common Stock. Such notice shall be sent at least 20 days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice. Any notice required by the provisions hereof to be given to a holder of Preferred Stock shall be deemed sent to such holder three (3) days after deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to such holder at his, her or its address appearing on the books of the Corporation.
5. Mandatory Conversion.
(a) Upon the earlier of (A) immediately prior to the closing of the sale of Standard Common Stock to the public at a price per share of at least $3.50 (subject to appropriate adjustment to reflect any stock split, subdivision, or combination of Standard Common Stock) and resulting in at least $25,000,000 of gross proceeds, net of the underwriting discounts and commissions, to the Corporation, in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering (1) in the United States, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (a “Qualifying U.S. Public Offering”), or (2) in Canada, pursuant to a filing or qualification of a prospectus with respect to an offering under the Securities Act (Ontario), as amended, that, if consummated, would not result in the holders of Standard Common Stock, Preferred Stock or any other securities of the Corporation being subject to any restrictions on transfer (including any new or extended holding periods or any escrow arrangements, including escrow requirements under any applicable Canadian, provincial or territorial securities laws including pursuant to the requirements of National Policy 46-201, or any successor policy or instrument thereto or pursuant to the requirements of any stock exchange or other marketplace upon which the Standard Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation are to be listed or quoted or traded) other than as contemplated by Section 7.3 of that certain Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement dated as of August 25, 2007 by and
23
among the Corporation and certain stockholders of the Corporation, as may be amended from time to time (a “Qualifying Canadian Public Offering”), or (B) a date specified by vote or written consent of, with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, the Requisite Series A Investors (the “Series A Mandatory Conversion Date”), with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, the Requisite Series B Investors (the “Series B Mandatory Conversion Date”), and with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock, the Requisite Series C Investors (the “Series C Mandatory Conversion Date” and individually or collectively with the Series A Mandatory Conversion Date and Series B Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, the “Mandatory Conversion Date”), (i) all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall automatically be converted into shares of Standard Common Stock, at the then effective conversion rate and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Corporation as shares of such series.
(b) All holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be given written notice of the Mandatory Conversion Date and the place designated for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to thisSection 5. Such notice need not be given in advance of the occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion Date. Such notice shall be sent by first class or registered mail, postage prepaid or delivered personally or by courier to each record holder of such shares of Preferred Stock. Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall surrender his, her or its certificate or certificates for all such shares to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice, and shall thereafter receive certificates for the number of shares of Standard Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to thisSection 5. On the Mandatory Conversion Date, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been converted into shares of Standard Common Stock, which shall be deemed to be outstanding of record, and all rights with respect to the Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote (other than as a holder of Standard Common Stock), will terminate, except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor, to receive certificates for the number of shares of Standard Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock have been converted, and payment of any declared but unpaid dividends thereon. 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 his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. As soon as practicable after the Mandatory Conversion Date and the surrender of the certificate or certificates for shares of Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall cause to be issued and delivered to such holder, or on his, her or its written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Standard Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and cash as provided inSubsection 4(b) in respect of any fraction of shares of Standard Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion.
(c) All certificates evidencing shares of Preferred Stock which are required to be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof shall, from and after the Mandatory Conversion Date, be deemed to have been retired and cancelled and the shares of Preferred Stock represented thereby converted into shares of Standard Common Stock for all purposes, notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender such
24
certificates on or prior to such date. Such converted shares of Preferred Stock may not be reissued as shares of such series of Preferred Stock, 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 accordingly.
6. Redemption.
(a) Redemption. At any time on or after September 26, 2012, the Requisite Investors, may request that the Corporation redeem all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of thisSection 6 (the “Redemption Request”). Upon receipt of the Redemption Request, the Preferred Stock shall be redeemed by the Corporation out of funds legally available therefor at a per share redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) payable in cash equal to the greater of (x) the Series A Preferred Original Issuance Price, the Series B Preferred Original Issuance Price or the Series C Preferred Original Issuance Price, as applicable, plus an amount equal to all Accruing Dividends (plus with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A Stated Dividend) unpaid thereon (whether or not declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors) and any other dividends declared but unpaid thereon, computed to the date of payment, and (y) the fair market value of one share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as applicable, determined as of each Redemption Date (the “Fair Market Value”), in two (2) annual installments commencing upon the earlier of (i) the date 120 days after the receipt of the Redemption Request by the Corporation and (ii) the date 60 days after the determination of Fair Market Value in accordance withSection 6(g) (such date of each such installment being 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 Preferred Stock owned by each holder that number of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock determined by dividing (i) the total number of shares of 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 the Corporation does not have sufficient funds legally available to redeem on any Redemption Date all shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date and of any other class or series of stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, the Corporation shall redeem a pro rata portion of each holder’s redeemable shares of such stock out of funds legally available therefor, based on the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares to be redeemed if the legally available funds were sufficient to redeem all such shares, and shall redeem the remaining shares to have been redeemed as soon as practicable after the Corporation has funds legally available therefor.
(b) Redemption Notice. Written notice of the mandatory redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of shares of Preferred Stock, at its post office address last shown on the records of the Corporation, not less than 40 days prior to each Redemption Date. Each Redemption Notice shall state:
(i) the number of shares of Preferred Stock held by the holder that the Corporation shall redeem on the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice;
(ii) the Redemption Date and the Redemption Price;
25
(iii) the date upon which the holder’s right to convert such shares terminates (as determined in accordance withSection 4(a)); and
(iv) that the holder is to surrender to the Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated, such holder’s certificate or certificates representing the shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed.
(c) Surrender of Certificates; Payment. On or before the applicable Redemption Date, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, unless such holder has exercised such holder’s right to convert such shares as provided inSection 4 hereof, shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares 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, and each surrendered certificate shall be canceled and retired. In the event less than all of the shares of Preferred Stock represented by a certificate are redeemed, a new certificate representing the unredeemed shares of Preferred Stock shall promptly be issued to such holder.
(d) 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 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, then notwithstanding that the certificates evidencing any of the shares of Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall not have been surrendered, dividends with respect to such shares of Preferred Stock shall cease to accrue after such Redemption Date and all rights with respect to such shares shall forthwith after such 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.
(e) Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Shares. Any shares of Preferred Stock which are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall be automatically and immediately canceled and shall not be reissued, sold or transferred. Neither the Corporation nor any of its Subsidiaries may exercise any voting or other rights granted to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock following redemption.
(f) Failure to Redeem. If the Corporation fails, for any reason or for no reason, to redeem on any Redemption Date all of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock entitled to be redeemed in accordance with the terms and conditions of thisSection 6, then the holders of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall have the rights to elect a majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors as set forth inSection 3(b).
(g) Determination of Fair Market Value. For the purposes of thisSection 6, the Fair Market Value shall be mutually agreed upon by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and the holders of the Requisite Investors;provided,however, that if such parties are unable to determine the Fair Market Value at least sixty (60) days before each Redemption Date, the Fair Market Value shall be determined by an independent appraisal firm or investment
26
banking firm, which appraiser shall be unaffiliated with the Corporation and who shall be selected jointly by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and the Requisite Investors, such selection to be made at least fifty (50) days prior to each Redemption Date. The Corporation and the Requisite Investors shall cause the appraiser to determine independently the Fair Market Value within fifteen (15) days after the time of its appointment. If the Corporation and the Requisite Investors are unable to reach an agreement as to an independent appraiser at least fifty (50) days prior to each Redemption Date, then two appraisers will be appointed within five (5) business days thereafter, one (1) each by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and the Requisite Investors to determine the Fair Market Value. If either the Corporation’s Board of Directors or the Requisite Investors fail to appoint an appraiser within such five (5) business day period, then the appraiser selected by the Corporation’s Board of Directors or the Requisite Investors, as the case may be, shall independently determine the Fair Market Value and shall do so within fifteen (15) days after its appointment. Each of the Corporation and such Requisite Investors will cause their appraiser to determine independently the Fair Market Value within fifteen (15) days after the time of their appointment. If the lesser of the two appraised values so determined (the “Low Value”) exceeds or is equal to ninety percent (90%) of the value of the greater of the two appraised values (the “High Value”), the Fair Market Value will be deemed to be equal to the average of the two appraisals. If the Low Value is less than ninety percent (90%) of the High Value, the two appraisers will themselves appoint a third appraiser within ten (10) days after the two appraisals have been rendered. Such third appraiser will have fifteen (15) days in which to determine independently the Fair Market Value. The median of the three (3) appraised values shall be binding on all parties concerned as the Fair Market Value. In making their determination, appraisers appointed hereunder shall not give effect to any discounts as a result of either the illiquidity of such shares of Preferred Stock or the fact that such shares represent less than a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Corporation on a fully-diluted or on an as-converted basis, as the case may be. The determination of the Fair Market Value pursuant to the terms of thisSection 6 shall be binding on the Corporation and the holders of Preferred Stock. The expenses of the appraisals will be borne solely by the Corporation.
(h) Purchase by Related Party. Notwithstanding any provision of thisSection 6, but subject to applicable law, in lieu of redeeming the Preferred Stock, (i) the Corporation shall be entitled to cause any of its related or affiliated entities which is a “taxable Canadian corporation” as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) to purchase such shares of Preferred Stock from the holders thereof on the Redemption Date unless such purchase of shares of Preferred Stock would have negative tax consequences to the holder thereof that are materially greater than the tax consequences to such holder arising out of the redemption of such shares of Preferred Stock and (ii) any holder of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to require the Corporation to cause any of its related or affiliated entities to purchase any or all of such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock from it on the Redemption Date and, in each such case, the purchaser thereof shall, and the Corporation shall cause such purchaser to pay to such holders of the Redemption Price in accordance with the provisions hereof, and upon the completion of such purchase by such Subsidiary or affiliated entity, the Corporation shall be relieved from any obligation to redeem the shares of Preferred Stock so purchased. If any holder of Preferred Stock requires the Corporation to cause any of its related or affiliated entities to purchase such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to clause (ii) of thisSection 6(h) and the Corporation fails to do so, the
27
Corporation shall indemnify such holder and hold such holder harmless from and against any resulting tax liability.

Any of the rights, powers or preferences of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock set forth herein may be defeased by the affirmative consent or vote of the Requisite Series B Investors.

C. Common Stock. The Common Stock shall consist of two series. Eighty Nine Million Nine Hundred Ninety Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Nine (89,999,999) shares of Common Stock are hereby designated “Standard Common Stock.” One (1) share of Common Stock is hereby designated “Special Common Voting Stock.” Different series of Common Stock shall not be construed to constitute different classes of shares for the purpose of voting by classes. The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions upon the Common Stock are as follows:
1.Standard Common Stock.
(a) Dividends. Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of Standard Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors, out of the assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, such dividends payable either in cash, in property or in shares of capital stock, as may be declared from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Standard Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with holders of one or more such series to vote thereon pursuant to the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or pursuant to the General Corporation Law. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law.

(b) Voting. The holder of Special Common Voting Stock shall be entitled to that number of votes equal to the number of Exchangeable Common Shares then outstanding, and shall have voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of the Standard Common Stock (voting together with the Standard Common Stock as a single class, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as required by law). The number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law.
