Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock
On July 12, 2022, the Company filed a certificate of designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware designating, effective as of the time of filing, the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of one hundred (100) shares of Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Designation provides that each share of Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock will have 80,000,000 votes and will vote together with the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as a single class exclusively with respect to any proposal to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, and on any proposal to adjourn any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of voting on such proposal. The Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock will be voted, automatically and without action by the holder, on any such proposals in the same proportion as shares of common stock are voted. The Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock otherwise has no voting rights except as otherwise required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
The Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock or any other class or series of stock of the Company. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, in priority to any distributions to the holders of Common Stock, out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company an amount equal to $0.01 per share, or $1.00 in the aggregate. The holder of the Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive dividends of any kind.
Unless prohibited by Delaware law by virtue of a lack of sufficient surplus, legally available funds or otherwise and subject to the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of the Company, the outstanding shares of Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time following the effectiveness of the reverse stock split upon the order of the Board of Directors in its sole discretion. Upon such redemption, the holders of the Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock will receive consideration of $1.00 per share in cash.
The foregoing summary of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such document, which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
