The holders of Series B Preferred Stock had votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible. The holders of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled to 20,000 votes per share of common stock into which the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible but could only vote in the same proportion as the shares of common stock, Series A preferred stock, and Series B preferred stock were voted on the reverse stock split or any adjournment of the stockholder meeting relating thereto.
