(i) every one (1) share of Common Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, at the Effective Time, be divided and changed into four (4) issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share, of the Corporation;

(ii) no fractional shares of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share of the Corporation resulting from such division and issuance will be or remain issued and outstanding following the Effective Time, and each stockholder otherwise entitled to a fractional share after the aggregation of all fractional shares then held by such stockholder will be entitled to receive, in lieu thereof, cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the fractional share by (y) the fair market value of a share of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share, of the Corporation as of the Effective Time, as determined in good faith by the Board;

(iii) the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share, of the Corporation resulting from such division and issuance shall be and become validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable at the Effective Time, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock in respect of which such shares of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share, are issued; and

(iv) immediately upon the Effective Time, each certificate representing shares of Common Stock of the Corporation, if any, will continue to be valid but will be deemed for all corporate purposes after the Effective Time, until such certificate is surrendered in accordance with procedures established by the Corporation, to evidence ownership of the appropriately increased number of shares of common stock, par value $0.00025 per share, of the Corporation resulting from such division and issuance, and upon proper surrender of such certificates, such shares will be held in uncertificated form unless otherwise determined by the Board and then only upon written request by such stockholder to the Secretary of the Corporation.

SECOND: In furtherance of and in connection with the forward stock split described and provided for in Article FIRST above, the Corporation desires to, and does hereby, amend its Charter pursuant to Section 2-605 of the MGCL to change the par value of each authorized share of Common Stock of the Corporation, whether or not issued or outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, including without limitation the 60,000,000 shares of Common Stock previously reclassified and designated as Class A Common Stock, from $0.001 per share to $0.00025 per share, effective as of the Effective Time, and simultaneously with the forward stock split described and provided for in Article FIRST above.
