Effective April 29, 2010, Geos Communications, Inc., a Washington corporation (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Designations of Rights and Preferences of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington, designating 20,000 shares of Preferred Stock Series H, no par value (the “Series H Preferred Shares”). The Series H Preferred Shares rank pari passu with shares of the Company’s Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, but otherwise rank senior to shares of all other series of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of the Company with respect to dividends, distributions, and payments upon liquidation, dissolution, and winding up of the Company.
Each of the Series H Preferred Shares is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our Common Stock, no par value (“Common Stock”). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion is determined by dividing the stated value, or $1,000, by a conversion price of $0.20, subject to adjustment as provided in the Certificate of Designations. Holders of Series H Preferred Shares are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of the Common Stock, except as otherwise required by law or as specifically provided in the Certificate of Designations. As further described in the Certificate of Designations, the holders of Series H Preferred Shares are entitled to elect one director to the Board of Directors.
The Company has the option to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series H Preferred Shares at $2,000 per share. Holders of Series H Preferred Shares also have the option to require the Company to redeem their Series H Preferred Shares if the Company fails to pay required dividends to such holders or breaches any material representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Certificate of Designations or in any subscription agreement pursuant to which any Series H Preferred Shares are issued, and such failure or breach is not cured.
