Common
Stock


 


Voting.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share for the election of directors and on all other matters that require stockholder
approval, subject in all cases to the rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock, if any. Holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative
voting rights.


 


Our
Bylaws provide that the holders of a majority of all of the shares of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of our
capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of
the stockholders, unless the question is one upon which by express provisions of an applicable law, our Certificate of Incorporation
or our Bylaws a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.
Our Bylaws provide that, when a quorum is present at a meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected, directors are elected
by a plurality of the votes of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote
on the election of directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than 66
2/3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote upon the election of directors shall be required to effect: (1) an amendment
to the Certificate of Incorporation, (2) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale or transfer
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another entity; or (3) the removal of a member of the Board of Directors.


 


Dividends
and Other Distributions. Subject to the rights of holders of any then outstanding shares of our Preferred Stock, our holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors from funds legally available
therefor. We do not currently pay cash dividends on our Common Stock, and we currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in
our business. Any future determination as to the declaration of dividends on our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of the Board
of Directors and will depend on our earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant
by the Board of Directors, including the applicable requirements of the DGCL, which provides that dividends are payable only out of surplus
or net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. The payment of dividends on our
Common Stock may be restricted by the provisions of credit agreements or other financing documents that we may enter into or the terms
of securities that we may issue from time to time.


 




    	 



     


    

 


Merger,
Consolidation or Sale of Assets. Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock, if any, holders of our Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive all cash, securities and other property received by us pro rata on the basis of the number of shares
of Common Stock held by each of them in any of the following situations: (1) our merger or consolidation with or into another corporation
in which we do not survive, (2) the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of our assets to another entity or (3) a merger or consolidation
in which we are the surviving entity but the Common Stock shall be exchanged for stock, securities or property of another entity.


 


Distribution
on Dissolution. After payment or provision for all liabilities, and subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding Preferred
Stock, if any, in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive a portion
of the remaining funds to be distributed. Such funds shall be paid to the holders of our Common Stock pro rata on the basis of the number
of shares of Common Stock held by each of them.


 


Other
Rights. The shares of our Common Stock are not subject to any redemption provisions and are not convertible. Holders of our Common
Stock do not have any preemptive rights enabling such holders to purchase, subscribe for or receive shares of any class of our Common
Stock or any other securities convertible into shares of any class of our Common Stock or any redemption rights. Holders of Common Stock
have no sinking fund rights.


 


All
outstanding shares of our Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. All shares of Common Stock have equal rights and preferences.


 


The
rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our Common Stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, those of the holders
of Preferred Stock, and will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of our Preferred Stock that we may issue in the future.
As of April 28, 2022, we had no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.

Delaware
Anti-Takeover Law and Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws


 


Delaware
Anti-Takeover Law. We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 generally prohibits a public Delaware corporation from
engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date
of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless:


 


	 	●	prior
    to the date of such business combination, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the
    transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;


 




    	 



     


    

 


	 	●	upon
    consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder
    owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes
    of determining the number of shares outstanding (a) shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers of the corporation
    and (b) shares issued under employee stock plans under which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially
    whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
	 	 	 
	 	●	on
    or subsequent to the date of such business combination, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation
    and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66
    2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.


 


Section
203 defines a business combination to include:


 


	 	●	any
    merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder or any merger or consolidation involving the corporation
    and another entity that is caused by the interested stockholder;
	 	 	 
	 	●	any
    sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition involving the interested stockholder of 10% or more of the
    assets of the corporation;
	 	 	 
	 	●	subject
    to exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the
    interested stockholder;
	 	 	 
	 	●	any
    transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of its stock owned by the interested
    stockholder; or
	 	 	 
	 	●	any
    receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided
    by or through the corporation.


 


In
general, Section 203 defines an interested stockholder as any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting
stock of the corporation and any affiliate or associate of such entity or person.


 


Our
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may delay or discourage transactions
involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might
otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock. Among other things, our Certificate of Incorporation
and Bylaws:


 


	 	●	permit
    our Board of Directors to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with such designations, powers, preferences and rights
    as our Board of Directors may authorize (including the right to approve an acquisition or other change in control);
	 	 	 
	 	●	provide
    that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by the Board of Directors;
	 	 	 
	 	●	provide
    that all vacancies, including newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled by the affirmative
    vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum; and


 


	 	●	do
    not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of capital stock entitled to
    vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose).


 


The
amendment or repeal of any of these provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation would require approval of holders of not less than
66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote upon the election of directors. Our Bylaws may be amended by an affirmative
vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors.
