RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS
OF
SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
PURSUANT TO SECTION 78 OF THE
NEVADA REVISED STATUTES
The undersigned, Chief Executive Officer of YesDTC, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Corporation”), DOES HEREBY CERTIFY that the following resolutions were duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation by unanimous written consent on August 31, 2011;
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized within the limitations and restrictions stated in the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, to provide by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation, in such series and with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions as the Corporation’s Board of Directors shall fix by resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance thereof duly adopted by the Board of Directors; and
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to authorize and fix the terms of a series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting such series;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
Section 1. Designation and Authorized Shares. The Corporation shall be authorized to issue two hundred fifty thousand (250,000) shares of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”).
Section 2. Stated Value. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have a stated value of two dollars ($2.00) per share (the “Stated Value”).
Section 3. Dividends.
(a) Commencing on the date of the initial issuance (the “Issuance Date”) of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of record of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends at the rate of ten percent (10%) of the Stated Value per share per annum (the “Dividend Payment”), payable quarterly in cash, in arrears, on each three month anniversary following the Issuance Date. Such dividends shall accrue on each share of Series B Preferred Stock from day to day whether or not declared.
(b) In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare and pay a dividend on the Common Stock, it shall, at the same time, declare and pay to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock a dividend equal to the dividend that would have been payable to such holder as if the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder had been converted into Common Stock on the date of determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend.
(c) In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation pursuant to Section 4 hereof, all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall be payable on the date of payment of the preferential amount to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock.
Section 4. Liquidation.
(a) Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, for each share thereof, out of assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, a preferential amount in cash equal to (and not more than) the Stated Value. All preferential amounts to be paid to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be paid before the payment or setting apart for payment of any amount for, or the distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of (i) any other class or series of capital stock whose terms expressly provide that the holders of Series B Preferred Stock should receive preferential payment with respect to such distribution (to the extent of such preference) and (ii) the Corporation's Common Stock. If upon any such distribution the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (or the holders of any class or series of capital stock ranking on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock as to distributions in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation) the full amounts to which they shall be entitled, such holders shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in accordance with the sums which would be payable on such distribution if all sums payable thereon were paid in full.
(b) Any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, shall be made in cash to the extent possible. Whenever any such distribution shall be paid in property other than 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.
Section 5. Voting. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the Corporation and shall be entitled to the number of votes for each share of Series B Preferred Stock owned at the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote on such matter or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of shareholders is solicited, equal to the number of shares of Common Stock such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into at such time. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock on all matters and shall not vote as a separate class.
Section 6. Conversion.
(a) Conversion Right. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock may, from time to time, convert any or all of such holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock in an amount equal to one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock for each one (1) share of Series B Preferred Stock surrendered.
(b) Conversion Procedure. In order to exercise the conversion privilege under Section 6, the holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal office that such holder elects to convert such shares of Series B Preferred Stock or a specified portion thereof into shares of Common Stock as set forth in such notice. At such time as the certificate or certificates representing the Series B Preferred Stock which has been converted are surrendered to the Corporation, the Corporation shall issue and deliver a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock determined pursuant to Section 6. In case of conversion under Section 6 of only a part of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock represented by a certificate surrendered to the Corporation, the Corporation shall issue and deliver a new certificate for the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock which have not been converted. Until such time as the certificate or certificates representing Series B Preferred Stock which has been converted are surrendered to the Corporation and a certificate or certificates representing the Common Stock into which such Series B Preferred Stock has been converted have been issued and delivered, the certificate or certificates representing the Series B Preferred Stock which have been converted shall represent the shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been converted. The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.
(c) Maximum Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock if upon such conversion the number of shares of Common Stock to be received, together with the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates on the conversion date, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation on such conversion date. For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 6(c) will limit any conversion hereunder and to the extent that the holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the holder.
Section 7. Other Provisions.
(a) Reservation of Common Stock. The Corporation shall at all times reserve from its authorized Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for conversion of all Series B Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding.
(b) Record Holders. The Corporation and its transfer agent, if any, for the Series B Preferred Stock may deem and treat the record holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock as reflected on the books and records of the Corporation as the sole true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor any such transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Section 8. Restriction and Limitations. Except as expressly provided herein or as required by law so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the vote or written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, take any action which would adversely and materially affect any of the preferences, limitations or relative rights of the Series B Preferred Stock.
Section 9. Certain Adjustments.
(a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time while the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding: (A) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation pursuant to the Series B Preferred Stock), or (B) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall receive such consideration as if such number of shares of Series B Preferred had been, immediately prior to such foregoing dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification, the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which it could convert at such time. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided (by stock split, by payment of a stock dividend or otherwise), into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, without a corresponding subdivision of the Series B Preferred Stock, the conversion rate of the Series B Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately adjusted. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, without a corresponding combination of the Series B Preferred Stock, the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(b) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, (A) the Corporation effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person, (B) the Corporation effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Corporation effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series B Preferred Stock, the Holders shall have the right to receive, for each share of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of such shares of Common Stock.
(c) Favored Nations Provision. Other than in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of a corporation or other entity and the Common Stock issuable in connection therewith is issued at not less than $0.002 per share of Common Stock, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and the Common Stock issuable in connection therewith is issued at not less than $0.002 per share of Common Stock, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants, pursuant to plans existing on the date of this Agreement, (iv) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement on the terms in effect on the Closing Date, (v) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Preferred Shares which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement, and (vi) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to consultants and service providers (collectively, the foregoing (i) through (vi) are “Excepted Issuances”), if at any time the Series B Preferred Shares are outstanding, the Company shall agree to or issue (the “Lower Price Issuance”) any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than $.002, without the consent of the majority outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, then the conversion rate of the Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically be adjusted as to equal the lower price. Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration or for consideration that cannot be determined at the time of issue will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock. For purposes of the issuance and adjustments described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock upon the sooner of the agreement to or actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or options and again at any time upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the applicable conversion rate in effect upon such issuance.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Certificate this 31st day of August 2011.
