Exhibit 4(vi)


 


DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES


 


Common Stock:


 


Retractable Technologies, Inc.
(“RTI”) is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of no par value Common Stock, of which 33,956,204 shares were issued and
outstanding at December 31, 2020. Our Common Stock is listed on the NYSE American stock exchange under the symbol “RVP”.


 


The 2008 Stock Option
Plan, which authorized a total of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of stock options, expired July 25, 2018.
Options for the purchase of 199,450 shares under the 2008 Stock Option Plan were outstanding as of December 31, 2020. RTI has reserved 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the 2021 Stock Option Plan. The 2021 Stock Option Plan will be considered
by the shareholders at RTI's 2021 annual meeting.


 


RTI’s Preferred Stock
is convertible into Common Stock with a conversion rate of one-for-one. There were 262,945 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding on December 31,
2020.


 


Shares of our Common Stock
have no conversion rights, no preemptive rights, no restrictions on alienation, and are fully paid and are not liable to further call
or assessment. Each share of our Common Stock is entitled to share ratably in any asset available for distribution to holders of its equity
securities upon liquidation of RTI, subject to the preference of the holders of each class and series of the Preferred Stock. There are
no restrictions on the transfer of our Common Stock other than as imposed by applicable federal and state securities laws.


 


All shares of our Common Stock
have equal voting rights and, when validly issued and outstanding, have one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders.
The holders of the Common Stock elect the Directors subject to certain limited voting rights of the holders of the Series II Preferred
Stock if dividends are in arrears for 12 consecutive quarters. Our Board of Directors is divided into two classes currently consisting
of three Class 1 members and three Class 2 members with staggered terms. Generally, Directors serve for two-year terms. Cumulative
voting in the election of Directors is prohibited.


 


Holders of our Common Stock
are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds available therefor. We have not paid any
dividends on the Common Stock since RTI’s inception and presently anticipate that no dividends on our Common Stock will be declared
in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among
other things, future earnings, full payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock, our operating and financial condition, our capital requirements,
and general business conditions.


 


Preferred Stock:


 


Our Board of Directors is
authorized to divide each class of the preferred stock into series and to set the relative rights and preferences as to and between series,
including dividends, issuance of preferred stock, redemption of such shares, and the conversion of any shares of preferred stock to other
or common shares. RTI is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Class A with a par value of One Dollar ($1.00) per
share; 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Class B with a par value of One Dollar ($1.00) per share; and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred
Stock Class C with a par value of One Dollar ($1.00) per share.


 


RTI has only one class of
preferred stock outstanding: the Class B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”), which had five series as
of December 31, 2020: Series I, Series II, Series III, Series IV, and Series V.


 


The Class B Series I, II, III, IV,
and V stock had the following number of outstanding shares at December 31, 2020: 0, 156,200, 106,745, 0, and 0 shares, respectively.
The remaining 4,737,055 authorized shares have not been assigned a series.

to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the Certificates of Designation, Preferences, Rights,

Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred Stock or Common Stock. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of RTI, the amounts available for distribution with respect to the Series I Preferred Stock were not sufficient to

that dividends payable on the Series II Preferred Stock shall be in arrears for 12 consecutive quarterly dividend periods, the holders
of a majority of the Series II shares shall have the exclusive right (voting separately as a class with one vote per share of Series II
Preferred Stock) to elect one-third of the Board of Directors to serve until the next annual meeting or so long as such arrearage shall
continue. So long as any shares of Series II Preferred Stock remain outstanding, we shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent
of the holders of at least 51 percent of the shares of the Series II Preferred Stock outstanding at the time: (a) authorize,
create, issue or increase the authorized or issued amount of any class or series of stock ranking equal to or senior to the Series II

and prior to any distributions to holders of Series III Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred
Stock or Common Stock. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RTI, the amounts available for distribution with respect
to the Series II Preferred Stock are not sufficient to satisfy the full liquidation rights of the Series II Preferred Stock,
