CERTIFICATE
OF DESIGNATION


 


OF
SERIES C JUNIOR PARTICIPATING CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK


 


OF


 


POWER-ONE,
INC.


 


Power-One, Inc. (the
“Company”), a corporation organized and existing under the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), hereby certifies,
pursuant to Section 151 of the DGCL, that the following resolutions were
duly adopted by its Board of Directors (the “Board”) on April 29,
2009:


 


WHEREAS, the Company’s
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”)
authorizes 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the
“Preferred Stock”) issuable from time to time in one or more series;


 


WHEREAS, the Certificate
of Incorporation authorizes the Board to provide by resolution for the issuance
of the shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to establish from
time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to
fix the designation, powers, privileges, preferences and relative
participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such
series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that a series of Preferred Stock with the powers, designations,
preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions
thereof, as provided herein is hereby authorized and established as follows:


 


SECTION 1.           Number;
Designation; Rank.


 


(a)           This series of convertible
participating Preferred Stock is designated as the “Series C Junior
Participating Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Series C Preferred
Stock”).  The number of shares
constituting the Series C Preferred Stock is 36,900 shares, par value
$.001 per share.


 


(b)           The Series C Preferred Stock
ranks, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Company:


 


(i)    senior in preference and priority to the
common stock of the Company, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”)
and each other class or series of Equity Security of the Company the terms of
which do not expressly provide that it ranks senior in preference or priority
to or on parity, without preference or priority, with the Series C
Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company (collectively with the Common Stock,
the “Junior Securities”);


 


(ii)   on parity, without preference and priority,
with the series of Preferred Stock of the Company that are designated as “Junior
Participating Preferred Stock,” par value $.001 per share, the “Series B
Junior Participating Convertible Preferred Stock,” par value $.001 per share 


 

















 


(the “Series B
Preferred Stock”), and each other class or series of Equity Security of the
Company, the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank on parity,
without preference or priority, with the Series C Preferred Stock with
respect to dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Company (collectively, the “Parity Securities”), and


 


(iii)  junior in preference and priority to the
series of Preferred Stock of the Company that is designated as “Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock,” par value $.001 per share (the “Series A
Preferred Stock”), and each other class or series of Equity Security of the
Company the terms of which expressly provide that it will rank senior in
preference or priority to the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to
dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company (collectively, the “Senior Securities”).


 


SECTION 2.           Dividends.


 


(a)           Dividends.  (i) Each holder of issued
and outstanding Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive,
when, as and if declared by the Board, out of funds legally available for the
payment of dividends for each share of Series C Preferred Stock, dividends
of the same type as any dividends or other distribution, whether in cash, in
kind or in other property, payable or to be made on outstanding shares of
Common Stock, in an amount equal to the amount of such dividends or other
distribution as would be made on the number of shares of Common Stock into
which such share of Series C Preferred Stock could be converted on the
applicable record date for such dividends or other distribution on the Common
Stock, without giving effect to the limitations set forth in SECTION 5(b) (the
“Dividends”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the
above, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to
receive any dividends or distributions for which an adjustment to the
Conversion Price shall be made pursuant to SECTION 5(f)(i)(A) or SECTION 5(f)(ii) (and
such dividends or distributions that are not payable to the holders of Series C
Preferred Stock as a result of this proviso shall not be deemed to be
Dividends).


 


(ii)   Dividends are payable at the same time as and
when such dividend or other distribution on Common Stock is paid to the holders
of Common Stock and are payable to holders of record of Series C Preferred
Stock on the record date for the corresponding dividend or distribution on the
Common Stock; provided, however, that no dividend or distribution
on Common Stock shall be made to holders of the Common Stock unless the
Dividends are paid (or are concurrently being paid) pursuant to SECTION 2(a)(ii) hereof.


 


(b)           If Dividends are not paid in full,
all Dividends declared upon the Series C Preferred Stock and all dividends
declared on any Parity Securities shall be declared pro rata so that the amount
of Dividends declared per share of the Series C Preferred Stock and
dividends declared per share of such Parity Securities shall in all cases bear
to each other the same ratio that accrued and unpaid Dividends per share on the
Series C Preferred Stock and accrued and unpaid dividends per share of
such Parity Securities bear to each other.


 


(c)           Holders of Series C Preferred
Stock are not entitled to any dividend, whether payable in cash, in kind or
other property, in excess of the Dividends as provided in this SECTION 2.


 


2

















 


(d)           Any holder that, together with its
Affiliates, Beneficially Owns more than 1,000 shares of Series C Preferred
Stock will be entitled to receive all cash Dividends by wire transfer of
immediately available funds.


 


SECTION 3.           Liquidation
Preference.


 


(a)           Upon any voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each share of Series C
Preferred Stock entitles the holder thereof to receive and to be paid out of
the assets of the Company available for distribution, before any distribution
or payment may be made to a holder of any Junior Securities, an amount in cash
per share of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the sum of (i) the
greater of (A) the Original Purchase Price per share and (B) an
amount equal to the amount the holders of Series C Preferred Stock would
have received per share of Series C Preferred Stock upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company had such holders converted their
shares of Series C Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock immediately
prior thereto, plus (ii) an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid
Dividends, if any, on such share of Series C Preferred Stock (such sum,
the “Regular Liquidation Preference” if pursuant to subclauses (i)(A) and
(ii) and the “Participating Liquidation Preference” if pursuant to
subclauses (i)(B) and (ii), and such greater amount, the “Liquidation
Preference”).


 


(b)           If upon any such liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company available
for distribution are insufficient to pay the holders of Series C Preferred
Stock the full Liquidation Preference and the holders of all Parity Securities
the full liquidation preferences to which they are entitled, the holders of Series C
Preferred Stock and such Parity Securities will share ratably in any such
distribution of the assets of the Company in proportion to the full respective
amounts to which they are entitled.


 


(c)           After payment to the holders of Series C
Preferred Stock of the full Liquidation Preference to which they are entitled,
the holders of Series C Preferred Stock as such will have no right or
claim to any of the assets of the Company.


 


(d)           The value of any property not
consisting of cash that is distributed by the Company to the holders of the Series C
Preferred Stock will equal the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of
distribution.


 


(e)           For the purposes of this SECTION 3, a
Fundamental Change (in and of itself) shall be deemed not to be a liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of the Company subject to this SECTION 3 (it
being understood that an actual liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company in connection with a Fundamental Change will
be subject to this SECTION 3).


 


SECTION 4.           Voting
Rights; Board Representation.


 


(a)           The holders of Series C Preferred
Stock shall have no voting rights other than those set forth in SECTION 4(b) below.


 


(b)           So long as any shares of Series C
Preferred Stock are outstanding and except as otherwise expressly permitted
hereby, the Company and its subsidiaries may not take any of the following
actions (including by means of merger, consolidation, reorganization,
recapitalization or 


 


3

















 


otherwise) without the prior vote or written consent
of holders representing at least a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Series C
Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class:


 


(i)    any amendment, repeal, alteration, addition,
deletion or other change to the powers, preferences, rights or privileges of
the Series C Preferred Stock in a manner adverse to the holders thereof
(whether by Board resolution, amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation or
Bylaws, merger, consolidation or otherwise);


 


(ii)   any increase or decrease in the authorized
amount of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, except for the cancellation
and retirement of shares set forth in SECTION 7(a);


 


(iii)  any issuance of additional shares of Series C
Preferred Stock after the Series C Original Issuance Date, other than
pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Notes; or


 


(iv)  agree to do any of the foregoing actions set
forth in clause (b)(i) through (b)(iii), unless such agreement expressly
provides that the Company’s obligation to undertake any of the foregoing is
subject to the prior approval of holders of Series C Preferred Stock.


 


Without expanding the
scope of the foregoing voting rights of Series C Preferred Stock, it is
understood that in the context of a Fundamental Change, so long as immediately
following such Fundamental Change:


 


(i)  the Series C
Preferred Stock (or any preferred security into which the Series C
Preferred Stock is converted in such Fundamental Change as contemplated by
clause (ii)(B) below) is convertible into the kind and amount of shares of
capital stock, other securities or other property receivable upon such
Fundamental Change by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock in accordance
with SECTION 5(e); and


 


(ii)  the Series C
Preferred Stock either:


 


(A) remains
outstanding with the same powers, preferences, rights and privileges set forth
in this Certificate of Designation (except to the extent necessary or
appropriate to implement clause (i) above), or


 


(B) is
converted into or otherwise exchanged for preferred securities of the surviving
entity of such a Fundamental Change, which preferred securities have the same
powers, preferences, rights and privileges (other than those that by their
terms automatically terminate or otherwise are altered following such a
Fundamental Change pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designation and
other than to the extent necessary or appropriate to reflect the consummation
of the transaction and the fact that the issuer is a different entity) as the Series C
Preferred Stock, provided that such exchange does not result in income
tax consequences generally to U.S. individual holders of the Series C
Preferred Stock that are more severe than the income tax consequences such
holders would have suffered if such holders had been holders of Common Stock
and been treated as such in the Fundamental Change; and


 


4

















 


(iii)  in connection
with such Fundamental Change, no action takes place that would otherwise
require the approval of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock
pursuant to this SECTION 4(b),


 


the Series C
Preferred Stock shall not have any vote or consent as a separate class with
respect to such Fundamental Change.


 


(c)           Exchange Compliance.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, if after the Series C Original
Issuance Date there is a change in the applicable rules of the primary
Exchange on which the Common Stock is listed at the time such change becomes
effective or in the interpretation of such applicable rules that would
cause the Common Stock to be delisted by such Exchange as a result of the terms
of this SECTION 4, the voting rights of the holders of the Series C
Preferred Stock set forth in this SECTION 4 shall thereafter be limited to
the extent required by such changed rules in order for the Common Stock to
continue to be listed on such Exchange.


 


SECTION 5.           Conversion.


 


Each share of Series C
Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of Common Stock as provided in this SECTION 5.


 


(a)           Conversion at the Option of
Holders of Series C Preferred Stock. 
Subject to SECTION 5(b), each holder of Series C Preferred
Stock is entitled to convert, at any time and from time to time, at the option
and election of such holder, any or all shares of outstanding Series C
Preferred Stock held by such holder into a number of duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock equal to the amount
(the “Conversion Amount”) determined by dividing (i) the Original
Purchase Price for each share of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted
by such holder by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect at the time of
conversion.  The “Conversion Price,”
with respect to each share of Series C Preferred Stock, initially is the
conversion price of the Notes in effect immediately prior to the conversion of
such Notes into shares of Series C Preferred Stock, as adjusted from time
to time as provided in SECTION 5(f). 
In order to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock into shares
of Common Stock, the holder must surrender the certificates representing such
shares of Series C Preferred Stock, accompanied by transfer instruments
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, free of any adverse interest or liens
at the office of the Company’s transfer agent for the Series C Preferred
Stock (or at the principal office of the Company, if the Company serves as its
own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to
convert all or such number of shares represented by such certificates as
specified therein.  With respect to a
conversion pursuant to this SECTION 5(a) or SECTION 5(c), the
date of receipt of such certificates, together with such notice, by the
transfer agent or the Company will be the date of conversion (the “Conversion
Date”).


 


(b)           Limitations on Conversion.  Notwithstanding SECTION 5(a), but
subject to SECTION 5(c), the Company shall not effect any conversion of
the Series C Preferred Stock or otherwise issue shares of Common Stock
pursuant to SECTION 5(a), and no holder of Series C Preferred Stock
will be permitted to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock into
shares of Common Stock if, and to the extent that, following such conversion,
either (i) such holder’s, together with such holder’s Affiliates’,
aggregate voting power on a matter being voted on by holders of 


 


5

















 


Common Stock would exceed 19.9% of the Maximum Voting
Power or (ii) such holder, together with such holder’s Affiliates, would Beneficially
Own (disregarding for this purpose clause (ii) of the definition of “Beneficially
Own”) more than 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock; provided, however,
that such conversion restriction shall not apply to any conversion in
connection with and subject to completion of (A) a Public Sale of the
Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion, if following consummation of
such Public Sale such holder and its Affiliates will not Beneficially Own
(disregarding for this purpose clause (ii) of the definition of “Beneficially
Own”) in excess of 19.9% of the then outstanding Common Stock or (B) a bona fide third party tender offer for the Common Stock
issuable thereupon.  For purposes of the
foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned by
a holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to
which a conversion notice has been given, but shall exclude the number of
shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon conversion or exercise of (x) the
remaining, unconverted portion of the Series C Preferred Stock and any Series A
Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, (y) any outstanding
Notes, or (z) any outstanding Warrants (as defined in the Securities
Purchase Agreement) Beneficially Owned by such holder or any of its
Affiliates.  Upon the written request of
the holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm in
writing to any holder the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding.  For purposes hereof, “Maximum Voting Power” means, at the time of
determination of the Maximum Voting Power, the total number of votes which may
be cast by all capital stock on the applicable matter subject to the vote of
the Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and any other securities that
constitute Voting Stock voting together as a single class and after giving
effect to any limitation on voting power set forth in the Certificate of
Designation of the Series A Preferred Stock and the certificate of
designation or other similar document governing other Voting Stock.


 


(c)           Automatic Conversion.  If at
any time the limitations in SECTION 5(b) would not prevent the conversion of one or more
shares of Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock, then, subject to any
lapse or expiration of the applicable waiting period, or approval, under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, or other
applicable antitrust law, the maximum number of shares of Series C
Preferred Stock held by a holder and its Affiliates that can convert into
Common Stock without violating the limitations in SECTION 5(b) will automatically convert into Common Stock,
provided that such automatic conversion shall only occur if the number of
shares of Series C Preferred Stock that would be converted on the
Conversion Date is equal to or greater than the lesser of (x) 1,000 and (y) all
shares then held by such holder and its Affiliates; provided, further, that if
the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock that may be converted
pursuant to this SECTION 5(c) is less than all shares of Series C Preferred Stock Beneficially Owned
by a holder and its Affiliates, the Company shall select the shares of Series C
Preferred Stock to be converted by lot, or on a pro rata basis.


 


(d)           Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock will be
issued upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.  In lieu of fractional shares, the Company
shall pay cash equal to such fractional amount multiplied by the Fair Market
Value of Common Stock as of the Conversion Date.  If more than one share of Series C
Preferred Stock is being converted at one time by the same holder, then the
number of full shares issuable upon conversion will be calculated on the basis
of the aggregate number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted by
such holder at such time.


 


6

















 


(e)           Mechanics of Conversion.


 


(i)    As soon as practicable after the Conversion
Date (and in any event within three Business Days), the Company shall (A) issue
and deliver to such holder the number of shares of Common Stock to which such
holder is entitled, together with a check or cash for payment of fractional
shares, if any, in exchange for the certificates formerly representing shares
of Series C Preferred Stock and (B) pay to such holder, to the extent
of funds legally available therefor, all accrued and unpaid Dividends on the
shares of Series C Preferred Stock that are being converted into Common
Stock.  Such conversion will be deemed to
have been made on the Conversion Date, and the person entitled to receive the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all
purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on such Conversion
Date.  In case fewer than all the shares
represented by any such certificate are to be converted, a new certificate
shall be issued representing the unconverted shares without cost to the holder
thereof, except for any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due
because any certificates for shares of Common Stock or Series C Preferred
Stock are issued in a name other than the name of the converting holder.  The Company shall pay any documentary, stamp
or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of Common Stock upon
conversion or due upon the issuance of a new certificate for any shares of Series C
Preferred Stock not converted other than any such tax due because shares of
Common Stock or a certificate for shares of Series C Preferred Stock are
issued in a name other than the name of the converting holder.


 


(ii)   The Company shall at all times reserve and
keep available, free from any preemptive rights, out of its treasury or out of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or a combination of both) for
the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock
the full number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the conversion of
all outstanding Series C Preferred Stock (as may be adjusted from time to
time pursuant to the terms of this SECTION 5 and assuming for the purposes
of this calculation that all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred
Stock are held by one holder), and the Company shall take all actions to amend
its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized amount of Common
Stock if necessary therefor.  Before
taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price
below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company will take any corporate
action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the
Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.


 


(iii)  From and after the Conversion Date, the shares
of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted on such Conversion Date will
no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the holder thereof as
a holder of Series C Preferred Stock (except the right to receive from the
Company the Common Stock upon conversion, together with the right to receive
any payment in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock and any accrued and
unpaid Dividends thereon) shall cease and terminate with respect to such
shares; provided, that in the event that a share of Series C
Preferred Stock is not converted, such share of Series C Preferred Stock
will remain outstanding and will be entitled to all of the rights as provided
herein.  Any shares of Series C
Preferred Stock that have been converted will, after such conversion, upon
issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof and the
payment of all accrued and unpaid Dividends thereon and cash in lieu of
fractional shares of Common Stock, be deemed cancelled and retired, shall not
be reissued as such and, following the filing of any certificate required by
the DGCL, have the status of 


 


7

















 


authorized but unissued
Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until such shares are once
more designated as part of a particular series by the Board.


 


(iv)  If the conversion is in connection with any
sale, transfer or other disposition of the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, the conversion may, at the
option of any holder tendering any share of Series C Preferred Stock for
conversion, be conditioned upon the closing of the sale, transfer or the
disposition of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series C
Preferred Stock with the underwriter, transferee or other acquirer in such
sale, transfer or disposition, in which event such conversion of such shares of
Series C Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have occurred until
immediately prior to the closing of such sale, transfer or other disposition.


 


(v)   The Company shall comply with all federal and
state laws, rules and regulations and applicable rules and
regulations of the Exchange on which shares of the Common Stock are then
listed.  If any shares of Common Stock to
be reserved for the purpose of conversion of shares of Series C Preferred
Stock require registration with or approval of any person or group under any
federal or state law or the rules and regulations of the Exchange on which
shares of the Common Stock are then listed before such shares may be validly
issued or delivered upon conversion, then the Company will, as expeditiously as
possible, use its reasonable best efforts to secure such registration or
approval, as the case may be.  So long as
any shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series C Preferred
Stock are then convertible is then listed on an Exchange, the Company will list
and keep listed on such Exchange, upon official notice of issuance, all shares
of such Common Stock issuable upon conversion.


 


(vi)  All shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock will, upon issuance
by the Company, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, not
issued in violation of any preemptive rights arising under law or contract and
free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof,
and the Company shall take no action which will cause a contrary result.


 


(vii) If, prior to a Rights Trigger, shares of Series C
Preferred Stock are converted into Common Stock, upon the conversion of such
shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the shares of Common Stock issued in
respect thereof shall be issued with the same Rights, if any, attached thereto
as are attached to the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock.


 


(f)            Adjustments to Conversion Price.


 


(i)    Adjustment for Change In Capital Stock.


 


(A)  If the Company shall, at any time and from
time to time while any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are
outstanding, issue a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock
payable in shares of its Common Stock to all or substantially all holders of
its Common Stock, then the Conversion Price at the opening of business on the
Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution will be adjusted by
multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction:


 


8

















 


(1)   the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding such Ex-Dividend Date; and


 


(2)   the denominator of which shall be the sum of
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on
the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or
distribution, plus the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such
dividend or other distribution.


 


If any dividend or
distribution of the type described in this SECTION 5(f)(i) is
declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted
to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such dividend or
distribution had not been declared. 
Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, in no event shall the
Conversion Price be increased pursuant to this SECTION 5(f)(i).


 


(B)   If the Company shall, at any time or from
time to time while any of the Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding,
subdivide or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect at the
opening of business on the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective
shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Company shall, at
any time or from time to time while any of the Series C Preferred Stock
are outstanding, combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in
effect at the opening of business on the day upon which such combination or
reclassification becomes effective shall be proportionately increased.  In each such case, the Conversion Price shall
be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such subdivision or combination and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to such subdivision, combination or reclassification.  Such increase or reduction, as the case may
be, shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day
upon which such subdivision, combination or reclassification becomes effective.


 


(ii)   Adjustment for Rights Issue.  If the
Company shall, at any time or from time to time, while any shares of the Series C
Preferred Stock are outstanding, distribute rights, options or warrants to all
or substantially all holders of its Common Stock entitling them, for a period
expiring within 60 days after the record date for such distribution, to purchase
shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or
exercisable for, Common Stock, in either case, at less than the average of the
Closing Prices for the five consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the
first public announcement of the distribution, then the Conversion Price shall
be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the
Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend Date
for such distribution by a fraction:


 


(A)  the numerator of which shall be the sum
of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the close of
business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for
such distribution, plus (2) the number of shares of Common Stock that the
aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable
pursuant to such rights, options or warrants would purchase at the Current
Market Price of the 


 


9

















 


Common Stock on the
declaration date for such distribution (determined by multiplying such total
number of shares of Common Stock so offered by the exercise price of such
rights, options or warrants and dividing the product so obtained by such
Current Market Price); and


 


(B)   the denominator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the
Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution,
plus the total number of additional shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to
such rights, options or warrants.


 


Such adjustment shall
become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Ex-Dividend
Date for such distribution.


 


To the extent that shares
of Common Stock are not delivered pursuant to such rights, options or warrants
or upon the expiration or termination of such rights, options or warrants, the
Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price that would then be
in effect had the adjustments made upon the issuance of such rights, options or
warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of
Common Stock actually delivered.  In the
event that such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion
Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would then be in
effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution had not occurred.  In determining whether any rights, options or
warrants entitle the holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at less than
the average of the Closing Prices for the five consecutive Trading Days
immediately preceding the first public announcement of the relevant
distribution, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of
Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for
such rights, options or warrants and the value of such consideration if other
than cash, to be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.  Except as set forth in this paragraph, in no
event shall the Conversion Price be increased pursuant to this SECTION 5(f)(ii).


 


(iii)  Adjustment for Certain Tender Offers or
Exchange Offers.  In case the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries shall, at any time or from time to time, while any shares of the Series C
Preferred Stock are outstanding, distribute cash or other consideration in
respect of a tender offer or an exchange offer (that is treated as a “tender
offer” under U.S. federal securities laws) made by the Company or any
Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock, where the sum of the
aggregate amount of such cash distributed and the aggregate Fair Market Value,
as of the Expiration Date (as defined below), of such other consideration
distributed (such sum, the “Aggregate Amount”) expressed as an amount
per share of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged, and not withdrawn,
pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer as of the Expiration Time (as
defined below) (such tendered or exchanged shares of Common Stock, the “Purchased
Shares”) exceeds the Closing Price per share of the Common Stock on the
first Trading Day immediately following the last date (such last date, the “Expiration
Date”) on which tenders or exchanges could have been made pursuant to such
tender offer or exchange offer (as the same may be amended through the
Expiration Date), then, and in each case, immediately after the close of
business on such date, the Conversion Price shall be decreased so that the same
shall equal the rate determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the close of business on the Trading Day immediately
following the Expiration Date by a fraction:


 


10
















 


(A)  the numerator of which shall be equal to the
product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the
last time (the “Expiration Time”) at which tenders or exchanges could
have been made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (including all
Purchased Shares) and (B) the Closing Price per share of the Common Stock
on the first Trading Day immediately following the Expiration Date; and


 


(B)   the denominator of which is equal to the sum
of (x) the Aggregate Amount and (y) the product of (I) an amount
equal to (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the
Expiration Time, less (2) the Purchased Shares and (II) the Closing
Price per share of the Common Stock on the first Trading Day immediately
following the Expiration Date.


 


An adjustment, if any, to
the Conversion Price pursuant to this SECTION 5(f)(iii) shall become
effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the second Trading
Day immediately following the Expiration Date. 
In the event that the Company or a Subsidiary is obligated to purchase
shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but
the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from
effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the
Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would
then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been
made.  Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, if the application of this SECTION 5(f)(iii) to
any tender offer or exchange offer would result in an increase in the
Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer or exchange
offer under this SECTION 5(f)(iii).


 


(iv)  Disposition Events.


 


(A)  If any of the following events (any such
event, a “Disposition Event”) occurs:


 


(1)           any reclassification or exchange of
the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
combination);


 


(2)           any merger, consolidation or other
combination to which the Company is a constituent party; or


 


(3)           any sale, conveyance, lease, or other
disposal of all or substantially all the properties and assets of the Company
to any other person;


 


in each case, as a result
of which all of the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash,
securities or other property for their shares of Common Stock, the Company or
the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, shall provide that the Series C
Preferred Stock converted following the effective date of any Disposition
Event, shall be converted, in lieu of the Common Stock otherwise deliverable,
into the same amount and type (in the same proportion) of cash, securities or
other property received by holders of Common Stock in the relevant event
(collectively, “Reference Property”) received upon the occurrence of
such Disposition Event by a holder of Common Stock holding, immediately prior
to the transaction, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion
Amount (without giving effect to any limitations on 


 


11

















 


conversion set forth in SECTION 5(b)) immediately
prior to such Disposition Event; provided that if the Disposition Event
provides the holders of Common Stock with the right to receive more than a
single type of consideration determined based in part upon any form of
stockholder election, the Reference Property shall be comprised of the weighted
average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of
the Common Stock.  The Company may not
cause, or agree to cause, a Disposition Event to occur, unless the issuer of
any securities or other property into which the Series C Preferred Stock
that remains outstanding thereafter (if any) becomes convertible agrees, for
the express benefit of the holders of record of Series C Preferred Stock
(including making them beneficiaries of such agreement), to issue such
securities or property.


 


(B)   The above provisions of this SECTION 5(f)(iv) shall
similarly apply to successive Disposition Events.  If this SECTION 5(f)(iv) applies to
any event or occurrence, neither SECTION 5(f)(i) nor SECTION 5(f)(iii) shall
apply; provided, however, that this SECTION 5(f)(iv) shall
not apply to any stock split or combination to which SECTION 5(f)(i) is
applicable or to a liquidation, dissolution or winding up to which SECTION 3
applies.  To the extent that equity
securities of a company are received by the holders of Common Stock in
connection with a Disposition Event, the portion of the Series C Preferred
Stock which will be convertible into such equity securities will continue to be
subject to the anti-dilution adjustments set forth in this SECTION 5(f).


 


(v)   Minimum Adjustment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conversion
Price will not be reduced if the amount of such reduction would be an amount
less than $0.01, but any such amount will be carried forward and reduction with
respect thereto will be made at the time that such amount, together with any
subsequent amounts so carried forward, aggregates to $0.01 or more.


 


(vi)  When No Adjustment Required.


 


(A)  No adjustment need be made for a transaction
referred to in SECTION 5(f)(i) or SECTION 5(f)(ii) if the Series C
Preferred Stock participates, without conversion, in the transaction or event
that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment pursuant to such Section at
the same time as holders of the Common Stock participate with respect to such
transaction or event and on the same terms as holders of the Common Stock
participate with respect to such transaction or event as if the holders of Series C
Preferred Stock, at such time, held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
the Conversion Amount at such time.


 


(B)   No adjustment need be made for rights to
purchase Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends
or interest.


 


(C)   No adjustment need be made for a change in
the par value or no par value of the Common Stock.


 


(D)  To the extent the Series C Preferred
Stock become convertible pursuant to this SECTION 5 into cash, no
adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash.  Interest will not accrue on the cash.


 


12

















 


(vii)    Rules of Calculation; Treasury Stock.  All calculations will be made to the nearest
one-hundredth of a cent or to the nearest one-ten thousandth of a share.  Except as explicitly provided herein, the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding will be calculated on the basis of
the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, not including
shares held in the treasury of the Company. 
The Company shall not pay any dividend on or make any distribution to
shares of Common Stock held in treasury.


 


(viii)   Waiver.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conversion
Price will not be reduced if the Company receives, prior to the effective time
of the adjustment to the Conversion Price, written notice from the holders
representing at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series C
Preferred Stock, voting together as a separate class, that no adjustment is to
be made as the result of a particular issuance of Common Stock or other
dividend or other distribution on shares of Common Stock.  This waiver will be limited in scope and will
not be valid for any issuance of Common Stock or other dividend or other
distribution on shares of Common Stock not specifically provided for in such
notice.


 


(ix)   Tax Adjustment.  Anything in this SECTION 5
notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such downward
adjustments in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this SECTION 5,
as the Board in its sole discretion shall determine to be advisable in order
that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend or stock
split will not be taxable to the holders of Common Stock.


 


(x)     Par Value.  Anything in this SECTION 5
notwithstanding, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall reduce the
Conversion Price below the then par value per share of Common Stock, and any
such purported adjustment shall instead reduce the Conversion Price to such par
value.


 


(xi)   No Duplication.  If any action would require adjustment of the
Conversion Price pursuant to more than one of the provisions described in this SECTION 5
in a manner such that such adjustments are duplicative, only one adjustment
shall be made.


 


(xii)     Provisions Governing Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to
all or substantially all holders
of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase
shares of the Company’s capital stock (either initially or under certain
circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a
specified event or events (“Rights Trigger”):
(A) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (B) are
not exercisable; and (C) are also issued in respect of future issuances of
Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of SECTION 5(f)(i),
(ii), (iii) or (iv) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Price
under SECTION 5(f)(i), (ii), (iii) or
(iv) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Rights
Trigger, whereupon such rights, options and warrants shall be deemed to have
been distributed, except as set forth in SECTION 5(e)(vii), and (x) if
and to the extent such rights, options and warrants are exercisable for shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents, an appropriate adjustment (if any
is required) to the Conversion Price shall be made under SECTION 5(f)(ii) (without giving effect
to the 60 day limit on the exercisability of rights, options and warrants
ordinarily subject to such SECTION 5(f)(ii)), and/or (y) if and to
the extent such rights, options and warrants are exercisable for cash and/or
any shares of the Company’s capital stock other than shares of Common Stock or
Common Stock 


 


13

















 


equivalents,
shall be subject to the provisions of SECTION 2(a) applicable to
Dividends and shall be distributed to the holders of Series C Preferred
Stock.  If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing
rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the Series C Original
Issuance Date, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights,
options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities,
evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of
any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and
Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such
rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights, options or
warrants without exercise by any of the holders thereof), except as set forth
in SECTION 5(e)(vii).  In addition, except as set forth in SECTION 5(e)(vii),
in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or
warrants, or any Rights Trigger or other event (of the type described in the
preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of
calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion
Price under SECTION 5(f)(i),
(ii), (iii) or (iv) was made, (1) in the case of any such
rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased
without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted at the opening of
business on following such final redemption or repurchase by multiplying such
Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be
the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on such date, less
the amount equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a
holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, option or
warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants),
made to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such
redemption or repurchase and (y) the denominator of which shall be the
Current Market Price, and (2) in
the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been
terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Price
shall be readjusted as if such rights,
options and warrants had not been issued. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) to the extent any such rights,
options or warrants are redeemed by the Company prior to a Rights Trigger or
are exchanged by the Company, in either case for shares of Common Stock, the
Conversion Price shall be appropriately readjusted (if and to the extent
previously adjusted pursuant to this SECTION 5(f)(xii)) as if such rights,
options or warrants had not been issued, and instead the Conversion Price will
be adjusted as if the Company had issued the shares of Common Stock issued upon
such redemption or exchange as a dividend or distribution of shares of Common
Stock subject to SECTION 5(f)(i)(A) and (B) to the extent any
such rights, options or warrants are redeemed by the Company prior to a Rights
Trigger or are exchanged by the Company, in either case for any shares of the
Company’s capital stock (other than Common Stock) or any other assets of the
Company, such redemption or exchange shall be deemed to be a distribution and
shall be subject to, and paid to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock
pursuant to, the provisions of SECTION 2(a) applicable to Dividends.


 


(g)           Notice of Record Date.  In the event of:


 


(i)    any stock split or combination of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock;


 


(ii)   any declaration or making of a dividend or
other distribution to holders of Common Stock in Additional Shares of Common
Stock, any other capital stock, other securities or other property (including
but not limited to cash and evidences of indebtedness);


 


(iii)  any reclassification or change to which SECTION 5(f)(i)(B) applies;


 


14

















 


(iv)  the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of
the Company; or


 


(v)   any other event constituting a Fundamental Change;


 


then the Company shall file with its
corporate records and mail to the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock
at their last addresses as shown on the records of the Company, at least 10
days prior to the record date specified in (A) below or 10 days prior to
the date specified in (B) below, a notice stating:


 


(A)  the record date of such stock split, combination,
dividend or other distribution, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as
of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such stock
split, combination, dividend or other distribution are to be determined, or


 


(B)   the date on which such reclassification,
change, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other event constituting a
Fundamental Change, is estimated to become effective, and the date as of which
it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record will be entitled to exchange
their shares of Common Stock for the capital stock, other securities or other
property (including but not limited to cash and evidences of indebtedness)
deliverable upon such reclassification, change, liquidation, dissolution,
winding up or other Fundamental Change.


 


Disclosures made by the
Company in any filings required to be made under the Exchange Act shall be
deemed to satisfy the notice requirements set forth in this SECTION 5(g).


 


(h)           Certificate of Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or
readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this SECTION 5, the
Company at its expense shall promptly as reasonably practicable compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to
each holder of Series C Preferred Stock a certificate, signed by an
officer of the Company, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based
and shall file a copy of such certificate with its corporate records.  The Company shall, upon the reasonable
written request of any holder of Series C Preferred Stock, furnish to such
holder a similar certificate setting forth (i) the calculation of such
adjustments and readjustments in reasonable detail, (ii) the Conversion
Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and
the amount, if any, of capital stock, other securities or other property
(including but not limited to cash and evidences of indebtedness) which then
would be received upon the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock.

security) of any rights, options, warrants or similar securities to subscribe
for, purchase or otherwise acquire such security and (ii) none of the

SECTION 7.           Miscellaneous.  For purposes of these resolutions, the
following provisions shall apply:


 


(a)           Status of Cancelled Shares.  Shares of Series C Preferred Stock which
have been converted, redeemed, repurchased or otherwise acquired by the Company
or cancelled shall be retired, not be reissued as such and, following the
filing of any certificate required by the DGCL, have the status of authorized
and unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until
such shares are once more, subject to SECTION 4, designated as part of a
particular series by the Board.


 


(b)           Severability.  If any right, preference or limitation of the
Preferred Stock set forth in this resolution (as such resolution may be amended
from time to time) is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by
reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other rights, preferences
and limitations set forth in this resolution (as so amended) which can be given
effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable right, preference or
limitation shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no right,
preference or limitation herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any
other such right, preference or limitation unless so expressed herein.


 


(c)           Headings.  The headings of the various subdivisions
hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation
of any of the provisions hereof.


 


(d)           Amendment.  Any provision in this Certificate of
Designation (including, but not limited to, any notice requirements) may be
waived, in whole or in part, amended or otherwise modified by the prior vote or
written consent of holders representing at least a majority of the
then-outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a
separate class.
