All shares of Preferred Stock shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed and determined by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of each series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the date from which dividends are cumulative. The Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more classes or series and with respect to each such class or series to fix and determine the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, determination of the following: (1) the number of shares constituting a series, the distinctive designation of a series and the stated value of a series, if different from the par value; (2) whether the shares or a series are entitled to any fixed or determinable dividends, the dividend rate (if any) on such shares, whether the dividends are cumulative and the relative rights or priority of dividends on shares of that series; (3) whether a series has voting rights in addition to the voting rights provided by law and the terms and conditions of such voting rights; (4) whether a series will have or receive conversion or exchange privileges and the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange privileges; (5) whether the shares of a series are redeemable and the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the manner of selecting shares for redemption if less than all shares are to he redeemed, the date or dates on or after which the shares in the series will be redeemable and the amount payable in case of redemption; (6) whether a series will have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of the shares in the series and the terms and the amount of such sinking fund; (7) the right of a series to the benefit of conditions and restrictions on the creation of indebtedness of the Corporation or any subsidiary, on the issuance of any additional capital stock (including additional shares of such series or any other series), on the payment of dividends or the making of other distributions on any outstanding stock of the Corporation and the purchase, redemption or other acquisition by the Corporation, or any subsidiary, of any outstanding stock of the Corporation; (8) the rights of a series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and the relative rights of priority of payment of a series; and (9) any other relative, participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such series.

If upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the assets available for distribution to holders of shares of Preferred Stock of all series shall be insufficient to pay such holders the full preferential amount to which they are entitled, then such assets shall be distributed ratably among the shares of all series in accordance with the respective preferential amounts (including unpaid cumulative dividends, if any, payable with respect thereto). SECTION 2. Common Stock - General Provisions. The Common Stock shall be subject to the express terms of the Preferred Stock and any series thereof.

Subject to the preferential and other dividend rights applicable to Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be declared on the Common Stock by the Board of Directors at any time or from time to time out of any funds legally available therefor. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, distribution or winding up of the Corporation, after distribution in full of the preferential or other amounts to be distributed to the holders of shares of Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by them.
