C.

Liquidation Rights.  The holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have liquidation rights as follows (the "Liquidation Rights"):

 

1.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, out of legally available assets, a liquidation preference of $.01 per share, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends to the payment date, and no more, before any payment or distribution is made to the holders of Common Stock or any series or class of the Corporation's stock hereafter issued that ranks junior as to liquidation rights to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  But the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive the liquidation preference of such shares until the liquidation preferences of any series or class of the Corporation's stock hereafter issued that ranks senior as to liquidation rights to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("senior liquidation stock") has been paid in full.  The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and all other series or classes of the Corporation's stock hereafter issued that rank on a parity as to liquidation rights with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to share ratably, in accordance with the respective preferential amounts payable on such stock, in any distribution (after payment of the liquidation preference of the senior liquidation stock) which is not sufficient to pay in full the aggregate of the amounts payable thereon.  After payment in full of the liquidation preference of the shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the holders of such shares will not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of assets by the Corporation.

 

2.

Neither a consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Corporation with or into another corporation or other entity nor a sale or transfer of all or part of the Corporation's assets for cash, securities or other property will be considered a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

 

D.

Conversion.  

 

1.

Optional Conversion. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this subsection D, each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right at such holder’s option, at any time, prior to the close of business on the tenth day prior to the date fixed for redemption of such shares pursuant to subsection H hereof, to convert all or any portion of such holder’s shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock.

 

(i)

Conversion Ratio. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible into 15 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (the “*Conversion Rate*”).

 

(ii)

Mechanics of Optional Conversion. The holder of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may exercise the conversion right specified in this subsection D.1. by surrendering to the Corporation or any transfer agent of the Corporation the certificate or certificates for the shares to be converted, accompanied by written notice stating that the holder elects to convert all or a specified portion of the shares represented thereby. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when notice of an election to convert and certificates for the shares to be converted are delivered (the “*Stock Conversion Date*”). As promptly as practicable thereafter the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled.  The person in whose name the certificate or certificates of Common Stock are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Common Stock on the applicable Stock Conversion Date.

Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

2.

Required Conversion. At any time immediately prior to the Corporation transferring all or substantially all of its assets or merging with or into another entity, the Corporation may, at its option, cause all of the then outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to convert into Common Stock on the terms set forth in subsection D.1 hereof by delivering notice of such conversion to the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock upon delivery to the Corporation of certificates representing such shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.  The Corporation shall request that each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock deliver the stock certificates representing such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for a stock certificate representing the Common Stock receivable upon conversion of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, but if the stock certificate representing the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is not returned to the Corporation, it shall thereafter represent only the Common Stock into which the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted.

 

E.

Corporate Change.  In the event of a merger, reorganization, recapitalization or similar event of, or with respect to, the Corporation (a "Corporate Change") (other than a Corporate Change in which the Corporation is the surviving entity or in which all of substantially all of the consideration received by the holders of the Corporation's capital stock upon such Corporate Change consists of cash or assets other than securities issued by the acquiring entity or any affiliate thereof), this Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be assumed by the acquiring entity.

2.

Notice of Redemption.  The Corporation will mail written notice of each redemption of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to each record holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock not more than sixty (60) nor less than thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such redemption is to be made.

4.

Redeemed or Otherwise Acquired Shares.  Any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall not be canceled, may be reissued as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or such other series as the Board of Directors may determine, and, unless a determination by the Board of Directors has been made as to said shares’ status, shall be returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock without designation as to series.

SECTION 6

Adequacy of Consideration.  The capital stock, stock rights, or options shall be issued for such consideration as shall be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors.
