**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On March 6, 2023, Ecoark Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Amendment (the "Amendment") to the Share Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") dated as of February 8, 2023 by and among Ault Alliance, Inc. ("AAI"), the owner of approximately 86% of BitNile.com, Inc. ("BitNile.com"), providing for the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of BitNile.com, in exchange for (i) 8,637.5 shares of newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company issued to AAI (which as amended is subject to upward adjustment ad more fully described below) (the "Series B"), and (ii) 1,362.5 shares of newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company to be issued to the to the minority shareholders of BitNile.com (the "Series C," and together with the Series B, the "Preferred Stock"). The original terms of the Agreement and each series of Preferred Stock previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 14, 2023. The Preferred Stock is convertible at $0.25 per share and is not convertible until the first day after the record date for seeking shareholder approval discussed in this Report. See "Reduction of Preferred Stock Voting Rights" below for a description of the voting rights of the Preferred Stock.

The parties closed on the Agreement with the amended terms which are summarized below on March 6, 2023 (the "Closing"). As a result of the Closing, BitNile.com became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As previously disclosed, BitNile.com's principal business entails the development and operation of a metaverse platform, the beta for which launched on March 1, 2023.

The Company's Board of Directors received an opinion from an independent broker-dealer that the issuance of the Preferred Stock was fair to the Company's shareholders from a financial point of view.

The amended terms of the Agreement and the Preferred Stock are as follows:

<u>Negative Working Capital Adjustment</u>

Pursuant to the Amendment, a new provision was added to the Agreement which provides that the extent that the Company has negative working capital at Closing, such deficiency be remedied by the issuance to AAI, within 15 business days of Closing, such number of additional shares of Series B having a stated value equal to any such negative working capital, rounded up to nearest $100.

<u>AAI Executive Bonus Pool</u>

Pursuant to the Amendment, a new provision was added to the Agreement which requires that as of the Closing, the Company shall have established a bonus pool pursuant to which, upon the date that BitNile.com shall have generated $100 million of revenue in the aggregate, the Company shall pay a bonus in the aggregate amount of $25 million to three executives of AAI in the following proportions: (i) $10 million, (ii) $10 million and (iii) $5 million. Such bonus payments will be payable in cash, provided, however, that if in AAI's reasonable determination the payment of the foregoing bonus payments would materially and adversely impact the Company's cash position, AAI shall direct the Company to make such payments in shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable by the Company shall in such case be determined by dividing the amount of the bonus payment by the closing sale price of the common stock on the trading day immediately preceding AAI's determination.

<u>Indemnification in Connection with Spin-Offs</u>

Pursuant to the Amendment, a new provision was added to the Agreement which provides that, to the extent that either of the record dates for the Company's planned spin-offs of White River Energy Corp and Wolf Energy Service, Inc. is changed from September 30, 2022 and such change results litigation against the Company for failure to spin off securities of such entities to the holders of shares of the Company's common stock of record prior to the change of a record date, which litigation ultimately results in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in favor of such holders, then the Company shall issue to AAI, within five business days, such number of additional shares of Series B having a stated value equal to any (i) damages or legal fees awarded to the plaintiffs, (ii) the actual expenses of its counsel(s), (iii) the cost of the Company's counsel engaged to defend any such action, (iv) any other litigation-related costs, and (v) any costs provided for in any settlement agreement with the plaintiffs, all rounded up to nearest $100.

<u>Warrants in BitNile.com</u>

Pursuant to the Amendment, a new provision was added to the Agreement to reflect that BitNile.com had issued warrants to two entities entitling each of them to purchase 50,000 shares of BitNile.com common stock, which represents 1% of the total shares of BitNile.com common stock issued and outstanding. The warrants are exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, which reflects a $100 million valuation of the BitNile.com. Pursuant to their terms, these BitNile.com warrants will be exchanged for warrants to purchase a total of 4,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock (2,000,000 shares for each entity) following Closing, whereupon the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants will carry piggyback registration rights.

<u>Reduction of Preferred Stock Voting Rights</u>

The Agreement originally provided that the Preferred Stock originally voted on an "as-converted" basis with the Company's common stock at the rate of one vote per share of common stock into which the Preferred Stock converts, subject to beneficial ownership limitations set forth therein. Prior to the Amendment, each Series B was entitled to 10 votes per share of common stock into which it was convertible, subject to the same limitations.

After discussions with the Staff of the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"), the Company amended the Preferred Stock Certificates of Designation to reduce the voting rights of the Preferred Stock so that each holder of the Preferred Stock is entitled to vote by dividing the stated value of each share which is $10,000 by $0.33066 (the "Voting Formula") with respect to all matters requiring the vote of consent of the shareholders of the Company. The Voting Formula was derived using the five-day average closing price up to and including the date of the Agreement of February 8, 2023. Because the Voting Formula uses a number which the Company believes is higher than what is required by the Nasdaq Rules, the Company is continuing its discussions with the Nasdaq Staff in order to determine that if the voting rights is increased by changing the Voting Formula to $0.25 per share which is higher than the closing price on February 8, 2023 (which is $0.3172) or the five-day average closing price not including February 8, 2023, it is possible that the former BitNile.com shareholders may have increased voting rights. Both the Agreement, as amended, and the Certificates of Designations for the Preferred Stock contain a provision required by the Nasdaq Rules limiting the former BitNile shareholders including the AAI subsidiary owning Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A") from never acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 19.9% of outstanding common stock, unless shareholders approval is required.

<u>Other Nasdaq Issues</u>

Nasdaq has issued a series of comment letters alleging that certain events taken by the Company have resulted in a violation of the Nasdaq Rules. These include an adjustment to the Series A, originally issued to a subsidiary of AAI on June 8, 2022 which adjustment occurred on November 22, 2022, resulting in an alleged violation of the Nasdaq voting rights and shareholder approval rules, the transaction with the former BitNile.com shareholders which Nasdaq alleges also violated the voting rights and shareholder approval rules, and a failure to maintain a $1.00 minimum bid price. The Company has provided in the Agreement, as amended, and in the Certificates of Designation for the Series B and Series C provisions limiting the total voting power of the holders of the Preferred Stock and the Series A held by a subsidiary of AAI to 19.9% of outstanding common stock and also limiting the conversion as well.

The Company expects to seek the approval of its shareholders for the Series A amendment and this share exchange with the former BitNile.com shareholders including AAI. In addition, the Company is required by the Amendment to reserve a number of shares of common stock equal to 200% of the shares issuable upon full conversion of the Preferred Stock. In order to do so, the Company must amend its Articles of Incorporation upon receipt of shareholder approval by increasing authorized shares to 1,400,000,000. The request for an increase in authorized shares may be completed by the company in full or in multiple parts. At current share price levels, the Company would be required to effect a reverse stock split in order to cure the minimum bid price deficiency and further meet the $4.00 per share required for new listings since the Nasdaq Staff considers the Agreement, as amended, as involving a change of control requiring the new listing application.

**Section 3. Dividends.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Dividend Rate</u>. Holders of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, other than as set forth in Section 3(d) below, cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 5%, which is initially equivalent to $500 per annum per share, based on the $10,000 Stated Value per share preference, payable quarterly in arrears on the original Stated Value together with any accrued but unpaid dividends. (the "**Dividend Rate**"). The Dividend Rate shall accrue from, and including, the Issuance Date to, but not including the 10-year anniversary of the Issuance Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Dividend Amount</u>. With respect to each share of Series B Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the PIK Dividend Shares), from the Dividend Payment Date of such share, dividends shall accrue on each share of Series B Preferred Stock, in an amount for each share of Series B Preferred Stock, equal to the Dividend Rate times the Stated Value (compounded as provided for immediately below, including with respect to any accrued and unpaid dividends) (such per share amount, as applicable, the "**Dividend Amount**") during each quarterly period following the applicable Dividend Record Date. All Dividend Amounts paid in cash or elected to be paid as PIK Dividends shall be compounded as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Dividend Payment Date; Dividend Record Date.</u> Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue daily and be cumulative until paid from, and including, the date of the Issuance Date and shall be payable monthly on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) day following the last day of each fiscal quarter (each such payment date, a "**Dividend Payment Date**," and each such quarterly period, a "**Dividend Period**"); provided that if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the dividend that would otherwise have been payable on that Dividend Payment Date may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest, additional dividends or other sums will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after that Dividend Payment Date to that next succeeding Business Day. The first dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock is scheduled to be paid on the fifth day of the next calendar quarter after the Issuance Date in the quarterly amount of $125 per share, which for the first Dividend Period shall be appropriately pro-rated, to the persons who are the holders of record of the Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business on the corresponding record date. Any dividend payable on the Series B Preferred Stock, including dividends payable for any partial Dividend Period, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of four 90-day quarters. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as they appear in the Corporation's stock records for the Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business on the applicable record date, which shall be the last day of the calendar quarter, whether or not a Business Day, in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date falls (each, a "**Dividend Record Date**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>PIK Dividend</u>. For the first two (2) years following the Issuance Date, the Dividend Amount shall be paid solely in PIK Dividend Shares, and for the following eight (8) years, the Dividend Amount shall be paid in either PIK Dividend Shares or cash, in the Majority Holder's sole and absolute discretion, subject to Section 3(e) of this Certificate. The Dividend Amount shall be automatically declared and the applicable Dividend Amount automatically paid to the Holder as set forth above. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, with respect to PIK Dividend Shares, the Dividend Payment Date of such shares shall be the Issuance Date of such shares for all purposes hereunder. All Dividend Amounts payable with respect to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be paid, whether in cash or in PIK Dividend Shares pursuant to this Section 3(d), pro rata to each Holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares held by each such Holder. PIK Dividend Shares issued on the applicable Dividend Payment Date shall have an aggregate Dividend Amount on such Dividend Payment Date equal to the total Dividend Amount accrued on such shares as of such Dividend Payment Date minus any portion thereof paid in cash pursuant hereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall take all actions necessary for all PIK Dividend Shares to be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and issued free and clear of all liens, mortgages, security interests, pledges, deposits, restrictions or other encumbrances, on each Dividend Payment Date. The Corporation shall update its books and records to reflect the issuance of any PIK Dividend Shares promptly following each Dividend Payment Date, and at the request of any Holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, shall deliver to such Holder a copy of such books and records reflecting the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares; provided, however, that the failure of the Corporation to comply with the terms of this sentence shall not in any way affect the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Limiting Documents</u>. No dividends on shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be authorized by the Board or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at any time when the payment thereof would be unlawful under the laws of the State of Nevada or when the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Corporation, including any agreement relating to the Corporation's indebtedness (the "**Limiting Documents**"), prohibit the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment thereof or provide that the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment thereof would constitute a breach of the Limiting Documents or a default under the Limiting Documents, or if the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Dividend Accrual</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will accrue regardless of whether (i) the Corporation has earnings; (ii) there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends; or (iii) such dividends are declared by the Board. No interest, or sum in lieu of interest, will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series B Preferred Stock which may be in arrears, and holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any dividends in excess of full cumulative dividends described above. Any dividend payment made on the Series B Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividend due with respect to those shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Dividends on Junior Stock or Parity Stock</u>. Unless full cumulative dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment for all past Dividend Periods, no dividends (other than in shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "**Common Stock**"), or in shares of any series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment upon shares of any capital stock of the Corporation other than the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. This Section 3(g) shall not apply to spin-offs or dividends of the common stock of any Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Pro Rata Dividends</u>. When dividends are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) upon the Series B Preferred Stock and the shares of any other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue ranking on parity as to dividends with the Series B Preferred Stock, all dividends declared upon the Series B Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock ranking on parity that the Corporation may issue as to dividends with the Series B Preferred Stock shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Series B Preferred Stock and such other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued dividends per share on the Series B Preferred Stock and such other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue (which shall not include any accrual in respect of unpaid dividends for prior Dividend Periods if such Preferred Stock does not have a cumulative dividend) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series B Preferred Stock which may be in arrears. For avoidance of doubt, the Series C Preferred Stock ranks on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payment of Accrued and Unpaid Dividends</u>. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend in excess of all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock as described in this <u>Section 3</u>. Any dividend payment made on the Series B Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated accrued and unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable at the time of such payment. <u>Provided</u>, <u>however</u>, if a Person is a Holder of the Series B Preferred Stock as of the record date for any spin-off or dividend of the common stock of any Subsidiary, other than White River Energy Corp or Wolf Energy Services Inc., the Holder shall be entitled to such stock dividend on an as converted basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Dividend Default.</u> Whenever dividends on any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are in arrears for one or more Dividend Periods, whether or not consecutive (a "**Dividend Default**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Dividend Rate shall be increased to 12% per annum (equivalent to $1,200 per annum per share) (as increased, the "**Penalty Rate**"), commencing on the first day after the Dividend Payment Date on which a Dividend Default occurs and for each subsequent Dividend Payment Date thereafter until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in full, at which time the Dividend Rate shall revert to the rate of 5% of the Stated Value per share (the "**Stated Rate**");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) on the next Dividend Payment Date following the Dividend Payment Date on which a Dividend Default occurs, and continuing until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in full, the Corporation shall pay all dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock, including all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends, on each Dividend Payment Date either in cash or, if not paid in cash, by issuing to the holders thereof Shares of Series B Preferred Stock if the Common Stock is then subject to a National Market Listing (as hereinafter defined) shares of freely tradeable Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of dividends being paid, calculated based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock calculated as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the next Payment Date referenced above, plus cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to the extent that the Corporation determines a shelf registration statement to cover resales of Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock is required in connection with the issuance of, or for resales of, such Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock issued as payment of a dividend, the Corporation will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file and maintain the effectiveness of such a shelf registration statement until such time as all shares of such stock have been resold thereunder or such shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

For purposes hereof, a "National Market Listing" shall mean that the Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("**NYSE**"), the NYSE American LLC (the "**NYSE American**") or Nasdaq Stock Market ("**Nasdaq**"), or listed on an exchange that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or Nasdaq.

Following any Dividend Default that has been cured by the Corporation as provided above in Section 3(h)(i), if the Corporation subsequently fails to pay cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in full for any Dividend Period, such subsequent failure shall constitute a separate Dividend Default, and the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(h) shall immediately apply until such subsequent Dividend Default is cured as so provided.

Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate to the contrary, cash dividends on any shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be payable solely in shares of Series B Preferred Stock unless and until the Corporation has, in the judgment of the Board, sufficient cash available to permit the declaration and payment of such dividends in accordance with the Corporation's Articles and Bylaws and applicable Laws, including without limitation Chapter 78 of the NRS. In the event that the Corporation

**Section 4. Liquidation Preference.** Upon the occurrence of (i) a Change of Control Event; (ii) liquidation; (iii) dissolution (other than a dissolution arising from the failure to make a routine filing with the Nevada Secretary of State); or (iv) winding-up, then, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Stock, the Corporation shall first redeem all shares of Series B Preferred, out of the Corporation's assets legally available for distribution to shareholders, the Liquidation Preference Per Share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the Holders will have no right or claim to any of the Corporation's remaining assets. In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Corporation's available assets are insufficient to pay the amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all Senior Stock and Parity Stock, each as defined in <u>Section 8</u> of this Certificate, then after payment of the liquidating distribution on all outstanding Senior Stock, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and all other such classes or series of Parity Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with another corporation which results in the exchange of outstanding shares of the Corporation for securities or other consideration issued or paid or caused to be issued or paid by such other corporation or an affiliate thereof (except if such merger or consolidation does not result in the transfer of more than 50 percent of the voting securities of the Corporation), or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation for purposes of this <u>Section 4</u>, unless the Majority Holders vote otherwise. The amount deemed distributed to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock upon any such merger or consolidation shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights and/or securities distributed to such holders by the acquiring person, firm or other entity. The value of such property, rights or other securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

**Section 5. Voting Rights.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Voting Generally</u>. Each Holder shall be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, provided that each Holder shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, by written action of shareholders in lieu of a meeting or otherwise), except as provided by law or by the provisions of Section 5(b) and 5(c) below. In any such vote, (i) in the case of the election of directors, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote per share of Common Stock on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one (1) per share of Common Stock on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, subject in each case to the provisions of the NRS and the Rules of the Principal Market. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all shareholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Corporation's bylaws. In determining the number of votes on an as converted basis, the Conversion Price shall be as set forth in Section 6(a). For avoidance of doubt, in order to comply with the Rules of the Principal Market, the Series B Preferred Stock shall only have total voting power equal to up to 19.9% of outstanding Common Stock on an as converted basis as of the applicable record date, such that no Holder or group within the meaning of the Exchange Act shall be entitled to vote more than 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock on an as converted basis, taking into account other securities of the Corporation beneficially owned by such Holder or group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Protective Provisions</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, for so long as at least 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, consent of the Majority Holders shall be required for any action that: (i) alters or changes the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) creates (by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or *pari passu* with the Series B Preferred Stock, (iii) results in the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to agreements with service providers giving the Corporation the right to repurchase shares upon the cessation and/or termination of services or other instruments or securities outstanding as of the date this Certificate is first filed with the Nevada Secretary of State), (iv) results in any Fundamental Transaction or any other merger, other corporate reorganization, sale of control, or any transaction in which all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation are sold, (v) amends or waives any provision of the Corporation's Articles or Bylaws relative to the Series B Preferred Stock, (vi) increases the number of directors who may serve on the Corporation's Board, (vii) results in the payment or declaration of any dividend on any shares of Common or Preferred Stock, other than spin-offs or dividends of common stock of any Subsidiary, or (viii) enters into any transaction that contemplates any of the foregoing. Holders shall be entitled to written notice of all shareholder meetings or written consents (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholder) with respect to which they would be entitled to vote, which notice shall be provided pursuant to the Corporation's Bylaws and the NRS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Election of Directors</u>. Provided that Shareholder Approval shall have been obtained, for so long as the Majority Holder shall continue to hold at least 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to it on the Issuance Date, the Holders shall be entitled to elect a number of directors to the Corporation's Board equal to at least a majority of the Board. For so long as the Holders shall continue to hold 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued on the Issuance Date, any Series B Director elected as provided in the preceding sentence may be removed without cause by, and only by, the affirmative vote of the Holder, given either at a special meeting of such shareholders duly called for that purpose or pursuant to a written consent of the Holder. The holders of record of the shares of Common Stock and of any other class or series of voting stock (including the Series B Preferred Stock), exclusively and voting together as a single class, shall be entitled to elect the balance of the total number of directors of the Corporation. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing a director, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the shares of the class or series entitled to elect such director shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of electing such director. Except as otherwise provided in this <u>Section 5(c)</u>, a vacancy in any directorship filled by the holders of any class or series shall be filled only by vote or written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of such class or series or by any remaining director or directors elected by the holders of such class or series pursuant to this <u>Section 5(c)</u>. <u>N</u>otwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 5(c) and the voting rights provided hereunder shall not apply and shall be of no force and effect if and at any time when the Holder(s) of the Series B Preferred Stock beneficially own, as defined by Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, less than 25% of the Corporation's Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the voting rights provided by this Section 5 would otherwise cause the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to be a transaction other than a public offering at below the Minimum Price as that term is defined under Nasdaq Rule 5635 and the accompanying instructions thereto, then the voting rights granted to the Holder(s) under this Section 5 shall be reduced proportionately as necessary to comply with such Nasdaq Rule.

**Section 6** **Conversion of Series B Preferred Stock**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Optional Conversion</u>. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall become convertible, in whole or in part and at the option of the Holder, commencing on the Conversion Date, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value of the Series B Preferred Stock being converted by the then applicable Conversion Price (as defined below, the "**Conversion Price**"). The term "**Conversion Date**" means the first day after the record date for the shareholders meeting approving the issuance of more than 19.9% of outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as converted basis issuable pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in <u>Section 6(d)</u> below. No conversion shall be permitted to the extent that it violates the Rules of the Principal Market including the issuance of more than 19.9% of a class of equity security on an as converted basis without shareholder approval.

For purposes hereof, the term "**Conversion Price**" shall mean $0.25, subject to adjustment as provided in <u>Section 6(d)</u> below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Mechanics of Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Before any Holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant to <u>Section 6(a)</u> hereof, such Holder shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal corporate office of the election to convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the conversion at issue, and the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued (each, a "**Notice of Conversion**"). No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required. The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. To effect conversions of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series B Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date at issue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and shall not be reissued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after delivery of the Notice of Conversion, in the case of a conversion pursuant to <u>Section 6(a)</u> hereof, and as soon as practicable after delivery of the certificate(s) evidencing the Series B Preferred Stock, within three (3) Business Days thereafter (the "**Share Delivery Date**"), issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder or Holders, or to the nominee or nominees thereof, a certificate or certificates representing the number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which such Holder or Holders shall be entitled as aforesaid. Conversion under this <u>Section 6</u> shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of delivery of the Notice of Conversion, unless a later date is specified in the Notice of Conversion, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date (such date, the "**Conversion Date**"). If, in the case of any conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, such shares of Common Stock are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such shares of Common Stock, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to the Holder any original Series B Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation. The Corporation's obligation to issue and deliver the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of the shares of its Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series B Preferred Stock of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the Stated Value of Series B Preferred Stock which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall issue shares of Common Stock and, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder such shares of Common Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u> by the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion and no injunction or similar court order is in effect, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $10,000 of Stated Value of Series B Preferred Stock being converted, $50 per Business Day (increasing to $100 per Business Day on the third Business Day and increasing to $200 per Business Day on the sixth Business Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Business Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Shares of Common Stock are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation's failure to deliver shares of Common Stock within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Fractional Shares; Computation Certificates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share for any shares in excess of one-half (1/2) or otherwise rounded down.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment of the Conversion Price of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each Holder of Series B Preferred Stock a statement, signed by its independent registered public accounting firm, setting forth such adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any Holder of Series B Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment, (B) the Conversion Price for such Series B Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such Series B Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Adjustments of the Conversion Price</u>. The Conversion Price of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Adjustments for Recapitalization</u>. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, merger, sale of assets or spin-off or stock dividend of any Subsidiary transaction provided for elsewhere in this <u>Section 6 or this Certificate</u>), provision shall be made so that the Holders shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> with respect to the rights of the Holders after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 6(d)(i) shall not apply to the planned spin-offs by the Corporation of the capital stock of White River Energy Corp and Wolf Energy Services Inc.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.</u> If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this subsection shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Adjustments for Distribution</u>. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to <u>Section 6(d)</u> hereof, in the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or other securities of the Corporation, any Subsidiary or any other Persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Corporation, any Subsidiary or other Persons, assets (or rights to acquire assets), or options, rights or other property not referred to in <u>Section 6(e)</u> hereof to the holders of Common Stock, in each case whether by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (each, a "**Distribution**"), then, in each such case for the purpose of this <u>Section 6(d)</u>, the Holders shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such Distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such Distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Adjustment for Reorganization or Reclassification</u>. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation or a Change of Control Event, shall be effected while any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding in such a manner that holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, or Change of Control Event, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Holder who has not received the amounts to be distributed to such holder in accordance with this Certificate shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore so receivable had such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event not taken place, and in such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holders to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price, Conversion Rate and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Prior to or simultaneously with the consummation of any such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event, the survivor or successor corporation (if other than the Corporation) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event shall assume by written instrument executed and mailed or delivered to each Holder, the obligation to deliver to such Holders such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to receive, and containing the express assumption by such successor corporation of the due and punctual performance and observance of every provision of this Certificate to be performed and observed by the Corporation and of all liabilities and obligations of the Corporation hereunder with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Subsequent Equity Sales</u>. If, at any time while shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation or any Subsidiary, as applicable, closes a Qualified Financing in which it sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice outstanding securities, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalent, entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the "**Base Conversion Price**" and such issuances, collectively, a "**Dilutive Issuance**") (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made only on one occasion except if the Majority Holders elect to exchange its Exchange Shares, as defined in the share exchange whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Corporation agrees to consult with the Majority Holder prior to commencing any such Qualified Financing regarding its terms. Further, the Corporation shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 6, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the "**Dilutive Issuance Notice**"). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Corporation provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock determined based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Notice of Conversion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Certificate as to Adjustments</u>. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, the Corporation at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than five (5) days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any Holder (but in any event not later than five (5) days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price then in effect, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Good Faith Assistance</u>. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Articles or Bylaws or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holders against impairment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Notice of Record Taking</u>. In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the Holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the Holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Reservation of Shares</u>. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the "**Required Reserve Amount**"); and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to enable the Corporation to satisfy its obligation to have available for issuance upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount, then, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder, the Corporation will immediately take all such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, using its best efforts to obtain the requisite Shareholder Approval of any necessary amendment to these provisions as soon as possible. For avoidance of doubt, because the Corporation does not have sufficient authorized Common Stock as of the Issuance Date, it will reserve the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that it legally can and seek Shareholder Approval as provided in the Share Exchange Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payment of Taxes</u>. The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or other transactional taxes (exclusive of income taxes) attributable to the issuance or delivery of shares of capital stock of the Corporation upon conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for such shares in a name other than that of the holder of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock in respect of which such shares are being issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Status of Shares</u>. All shares of Common Stock that may be issued in connection with the conversion provisions set forth herein will, upon issuance by the Corporation, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, Liens or charges with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Notice</u>. Any notice required by the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> to be given to the Holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed given upon hand delivery, one (1) Business Day after the notice is sent by overnight courier or three (3) Business Days after the notice is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder of record at his address appearing on the stock books of the Corporation. The Corporation shall provide each Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to the terms of this Certificate, including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation shall give written notice to each Holder (i) promptly following any adjustment of the Conversion Price, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment and (ii) at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Corporation closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or Distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any grant, issuances, or sales of any Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, assets or other property to all holders of shares of Common Stock as a class or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any matter on which the holders of Common Stock shall have the right to vote.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>Cancellation of Series B Preferred Stock</u>. In the event any shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u> or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation, the shares so converted or reacquired shall be canceled and may not be reissued. The Articles of the Corporation may be appropriately amended from time to time to effect the corresponding reduction in the Corporation's authorized capital stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>Conversion Disputes</u>. In the case of any dispute with respect to a conversion, the Corporation shall promptly issue such number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with <u>Section 6</u>(c) above as are not disputed. If such dispute involves the calculation of the Conversion Price, and such dispute is not promptly resolved by discussion between the relevant Holder and the Corporation, the Corporation shall submit the disputed calculations to an independent outside accountant within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of notice of such dispute. The accountant, at the Corporation's sole expense, shall promptly audit the calculations and notify the Corporation and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the date it receives the disputed calculations. The accountant's calculation shall be deemed conclusive, absent manifest error. The Corporation shall then issue the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 6(c) above. If the accountant determines the Corporation's calculations are correct, the Holder shall reimburse the Corporation for the accountant's expense.

**Section 7. Status of Acquired Shares.** All shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted by its Holder in accordance with <u>Section 6</u> hereof, or acquired by the Corporation, shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of undesignated Preferred Stock of the Corporation.

**Section 8. Ranking.** The Series B Preferred Stock will rank: (i) senior to (A) all of the Corporation's Common Stock, (B) the Corporation's issued and outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, and (C) and any other equity securities that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, in each case with respect to payment of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up ("**Junior Stock**"); (ii) equal to the Series C Preferred Stock (with the Series B Preferred Stock, the "**Preferred Shares**") and any shares of equity securities that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank on par with such Series B Preferred Stock, in each case with respect to payment of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders, the Corporation shall not create or issue any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking, by its terms, *pari passu* with, the Series B Preferred Stock ("**Parity Stock**"); and (iii) junior to all of the Corporation's existing and future indebtedness. Without prior written consent of the Majority Holders, the Corporation shall not create or issue any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series B Preferred Stock (collectively, "**Senior Stock**"), as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.

**Section 9. Rights Upon Fundamental Transactions. The Corporation shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless: (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate in accordance with the provisions of this <u>Section 9</u> pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Majority Holders and approved by the Majority Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each Holder of Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for such shares of Series B Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate, including, without limitation, having a stated value equal to the stated value and dividend rate of the Series B Preferred Stock held by the Holders and having similar ranking to the Series B Preferred Stock, and reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose shares of common stock are quoted on or listed for trading on a Trading Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate referring to the "Corporation" shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation herein and therein. In addition to the foregoing, upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to each Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under <u>Section 6</u>, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) that each Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had all the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by each Holder been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock contained in this Certificate), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate. The provisions of this <u>Section 9</u> shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.** 

**Section 10. Negative Covenants. Except as otherwise permitted by this Certificate, for so long as the Holder or Holders shall continue to hold at least twenty-five percent (25%) (or such higher percentage as set forth in this Section 10) of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to it on the Issuance Date, without the affirmative consent or approval of the Majority Holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding, the Corporation shall not, whether directly or indirectly, by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, and shall not permit any Subsidiary, to:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) take any action to amend, modify, alter or repeal any provision of its Articles or Bylaws which would have an adverse effect on the Preferred Shares taken as a whole;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) take any action to alter the number of members of the Board, or designate classes of directors other than as required by the federal securities laws, the rules of the Principal Market or as provided for herein;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) except for Agora Digital Holdings, Inc., discontinue the businesses in which it or any Subsidiary is engaged as of the date of the Issuance Date, or engage, or permit any Subsidiary to engage, in any business other than the businesses in which it is engaged as of the Issuance Date or any businesses or activities substantially similar or related thereto or ancillary to the operation thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) merge or consolidate with, or purchase a substantial portion of the assets of, or by any other manner acquire or combine with any business or any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, association or other business organization or division thereof or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets which are material to the Corporation, its business, financial condition or results of operations; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) enter into an agreement to do any of the things described in clauses (a) through (q) of this <u>Section 10</u>.

**Section 11. Information Rights. During any period in which (i) the Corporation is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and (ii) at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, the Corporation shall use its best efforts to (a) transmit by mail to all the Holders who at that time own more than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, as their names and addresses appear in the Corporation's record books and without cost to such Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports that the Corporation would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Corporation was subject to such sections (other than any exhibits that would have been required) and (b) promptly upon written request, supply copies of such reports to any prospective holder of Series B Preferred Stock; <u>provided</u>, that the requirements of this <u>Section 11</u> shall terminate on the six (6) month anniversary of the date on which the Corporation's Common Stock becomes subject to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The Corporation shall mail the reports to the Holders within 30 days after the respective dates by which the Corporation would have been required to file the reports with the Commission if the Corporation were then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, assuming the Corporation is a "non-accelerated filer" in accordance with the Exchange Act.**

**Section 12. Record Holders.** The Corporation and its transfer agent shall deem and treat the record Holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

**Section 13. Sinking Fund.** The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to the benefits of any retirement or sinking fund.

**Section 14. Amendment of Resolution.** The Board reserves the right, subject to the terms of this Certificate, from time to time to increase (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or designated shares of Series B Preferred Stock) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding) the number of shares that constitute the Series B Preferred Stock by further resolution adopted by the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board and by the filing of a certificate pursuant to the provisions of the NRS stating that such increase or decrease, as the case may be, has been so authorized and in other respects to amend this Certificate within the limitations provided by law, this resolution and the Articles. Provided, however, that no increase contemplated by this Section 14 shall be made without the consent of the Majority Holders.

**Section 15. Restriction and Limitations. Except as expressly provided herein or as required by law so long as at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders, take any action which would adversely and materially affect any of the preferences, limitations or relative rights of the Series B Preferred Stock.**

**Section 16. Waiver. Any right or privilege of the Series B Preferred Stock may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by and only by the written consent of the Corporation and the Majority Holders and any such waiver shall be binding upon each holder of Series B Preferred Stock or other securities exercisable for or convertible into Series B Preferred Stock. No failure or delay on the part of a Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.**

**Section 18. Lost or Stolen Certificates. Upon receipt by the Corporation of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificates representing Series B Preferred Stock (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the applicable Holder to the Corporation in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the certificate(s), the Corporation shall execute and deliver new certificate(s) of like tenor and date.**

**Section 18. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Certificate shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Certificate and any of the other transaction documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy. Nothing herein shall limit any Holder's right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate. The Corporation covenants to each Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by a Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Corporation (or the performance thereof). The Corporation acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Corporation therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, each Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Corporation shall provide all information and documentation to a Holder that is requested by such Holder to enable such Holder to confirm the Corporation's compliance with the terms and conditions of this Certificate.**

**Section 19. Non-circumvention. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that the Corporation will not, by amendment of its Articles, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Certificate, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Certificate and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Certificate, the Corporation (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock above the Stated Value then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock and (iii) shall, so long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Required Reserve Amount, subject to this Certificate.**

**Section 3. Dividends**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Dividend Rate</u>. Holders of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, other than as set forth in Section 3(d) below, cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 5%, which is initially equivalent to $500 per annum per share, based on the $10,000 Stated Value per share preference, payable quarterly in arrears on the original Stated Value together with any accrued but unpaid dividends. (the "**Dividend Rate**"). The Dividend Rate shall accrue from, and including, the Issuance Date to, but not including the 10-year anniversary of the Issuance Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Dividend Amount</u>. With respect to each share of Series C Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the PIK Dividend Shares), from the Dividend Payment Date of such share, dividends shall accrue on each share of Series C Preferred Stock, in an amount for each share of Series C Preferred Stock, equal to the Dividend Rate times the Stated Value (compounded as provided for immediately below, including with respect to any accrued and unpaid dividends) (such per share amount, as applicable, the "**Dividend Amount**") during each quarterly period following the applicable Dividend Record Date. All Dividend Amounts paid in cash or elected to be paid as PIK Dividends shall be compounded as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Dividend Payment Date; Dividend Record Date.</u> Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock shall accrue daily and be cumulative until paid from, and including, the date of the Issuance Date and shall be payable monthly on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) day following the last day of each fiscal quarter (each such payment date, a "**Dividend Payment Date**," and each such quarterly period, a "**Dividend Period**"); provided that if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the dividend that would otherwise have been payable on that Dividend Payment Date may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest, additional dividends or other sums will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after that Dividend Payment Date to that next succeeding Business Day. The first dividend on the Series C Preferred Stock is scheduled to be paid on the fifth day of the next calendar quarter after the Issuance Date in the quarterly amount of $125 per share, which for the first Dividend Period shall be appropriately pro-rated, to the persons who are the holders of record of the Series C Preferred Stock at the close of business on the corresponding record date. Any dividend payable on the Series C Preferred Stock, including dividends payable for any partial Dividend Period, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of four 90-day quarters. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as they appear in the Corporation's stock records for the Series C Preferred Stock at the close of business on the applicable record date, which shall be the last day of the calendar quarter, whether or not a Business Day, in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date falls (each, a "**Dividend Record Date**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>PIK Dividend</u>. For the first two (2) years following the Issuance Date, the Dividend Amount shall be paid solely in PIK Dividend Shares, and for the following eight (8) years, the Dividend Amount shall be paid in either PIK Dividend Shares or cash, in the Majority Holder's sole and absolute discretion, subject to Section 3(e) of this Certificate. The Dividend Amount shall be automatically declared and the applicable Dividend Amount automatically paid to the Holder as set forth above. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, with respect to PIK Dividend Shares, the Dividend Payment Date of such shares shall be the Issuance Date of such shares for all purposes hereunder. All Dividend Amounts payable with respect to the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be paid, whether in cash or in PIK Dividend Shares pursuant to this Section 3(d), pro rata to each Holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares held by each such Holder. PIK Dividend Shares issued on the applicable Dividend Payment Date shall have an aggregate Dividend Amount on such Dividend Payment Date equal to the total Dividend Amount accrued on such shares as of such Dividend Payment Date minus any portion thereof paid in cash pursuant hereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall take all actions necessary for all PIK Dividend Shares to be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and issued free and clear of all liens, mortgages, security interests, pledges, deposits, restrictions or other encumbrances, on each Dividend Payment Date. The Corporation shall update its books and records to reflect the issuance of any PIK Dividend Shares promptly following each Dividend Payment Date, and at the request of any Holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, shall deliver to such Holder a copy of such books and records reflecting the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares; provided, however, that the failure of the Corporation to comply with the terms of this sentence shall not in any way affect the issuance of such PIK Dividend Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Limiting Documents</u>. No dividends on shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be authorized by the Board or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at any time when the payment thereof would be unlawful under the laws of the State of Nevada or when the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Corporation, including any agreement relating to the Corporation's indebtedness (the "**Limiting Documents**"), prohibit the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment thereof or provide that the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment thereof would constitute a breach of the Limiting Documents or a default under the Limiting Documents, or if the authorization, payment or setting apart for payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Dividend Accrual</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock will accrue regardless of whether (i) the Corporation has earnings; (ii) there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends; or (iii) such dividends are declared by the Board. No interest, or sum in lieu of interest, will be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series C Preferred Stock which may be in arrears, and holders of the Series C Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any dividends in excess of full cumulative dividends described above. Any dividend payment made on the Series C Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated but unpaid dividend due with respect to those shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Dividends on Junior Stock or Parity Stock</u>. Unless full cumulative dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment for all past Dividend Periods, no dividends (other than in shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "**Common Stock**"), or in shares of any series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue ranking junior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to dividends and upon liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment upon shares of any capital stock of the Corporation other than the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. This Section 3(g) shall not apply to spin-offs or dividends of the common stock of any Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Pro Rata Dividends</u>. When dividends are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) upon the Series C Preferred Stock and the shares of any other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue ranking on parity as to dividends with the Series C Preferred Stock, all dividends declared upon the Series C Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock ranking on parity that the Corporation may issue as to dividends with the Series C Preferred Stock shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Series C Preferred Stock and such other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued dividends per share on the Series C Preferred Stock and such other series of Preferred Stock that the Corporation may issue (which shall not include any accrual in respect of unpaid dividends for prior Dividend Periods if such Preferred Stock does not have a cumulative dividend) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series C Preferred Stock which may be in arrears. For avoidance of doubt, the Series C Preferred Stock ranks on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payment of Accrued and Unpaid Dividends</u>. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend in excess of all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock as described in this <u>Section 3</u>. Any dividend payment made on the Series C Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accumulated accrued and unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable at the time of such payment. <u>Provided</u>, <u>however</u>, if a Person is a Holder of the Series C Preferred Stock as of the record date for any spin-off or dividend of the common stock of any Subsidiary, other than White River Energy Corp or Wolf Energy Services Inc., the Holder shall be entitled to such stock dividend on an as converted basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Dividend Default.</u> Whenever dividends on any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are in arrears for one or more Dividend Periods, whether or not consecutive (a "**Dividend Default**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Dividend Rate shall be increased to 12% per annum (equivalent to $1,200 per annum per share) (as increased, the "**Penalty Rate**"), commencing on the first day after the Dividend Payment Date on which a Dividend Default occurs and for each subsequent Dividend Payment Date thereafter until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock in full, at which time the Dividend Rate shall revert to the rate of 5% of the Stated Value per share (the "**Stated Rate**");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) on the next Dividend Payment Date following the Dividend Payment Date on which a Dividend Default occurs, and continuing until such time as the Corporation has paid all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock in full, the Corporation shall pay all dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock, including all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends, on each Dividend Payment Date either in cash or, if not paid in cash, by issuing to the holders thereof Shares of Series C Preferred Stock if the Common Stock is then subject to a National Market Listing (as hereinafter defined) shares of freely tradeable Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of dividends being paid, calculated based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock calculated as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the next Payment Date referenced above, plus cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to the extent that the Corporation determines a shelf registration statement to cover resales of Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock is required in connection with the issuance of, or for resales of, such Common Stock or Series C Preferred Stock issued as payment of a dividend, the Corporation will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file and maintain the effectiveness of such a shelf registration statement until such time as all shares of such stock have been resold thereunder or such shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

For purposes hereof, a "National Market Listing" shall mean that the Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("**NYSE**"), the NYSE American LLC (the "**NYSE American**") or Nasdaq Stock Market ("**Nasdaq**"), or listed on an exchange that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or Nasdaq.

Following any Dividend Default that has been cured by the Corporation as provided above in Section 3(h)(i), if the Corporation subsequently fails to pay cash dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock in full for any Dividend Period, such subsequent failure shall constitute a separate Dividend Default, and the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(h) shall immediately apply until such subsequent Dividend Default is cured as so provided.

Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate to the contrary, cash dividends on any shares of Series C Preferred Stock will be payable solely in shares of Series C Preferred Stock unless and until the Corporation has, in the judgment of the Board, sufficient cash available to permit the declaration and payment of such dividends in accordance with the Corporation's Articles and Bylaws and applicable Laws, including without limitation Chapter 78 of the NRS. In the event that the Corporation

**Section 4. Liquidation Preference**. Upon the occurrence of (i) a Change of Control Event; (ii) liquidation; (iii) dissolution (other than a dissolution arising from the failure to make a routine filing with the Nevada Secretary of State); or (iv) winding-up, then, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Stock, the Corporation shall first redeem all shares of Series C Preferred, out of the Corporation's assets legally available for distribution to shareholders, the Liquidation Preference Per Share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the Holders will have no right or claim to any of the Corporation's remaining assets. In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Corporation's available assets are insufficient to pay the amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all Senior Stock and Parity Stock, each as defined in <u>Section 8</u> of this Certificate, then after payment of the liquidating distribution on all outstanding Senior Stock, the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock and all other such classes or series of Parity Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with another corporation which results in the exchange of outstanding shares of the Corporation for securities or other consideration issued or paid or caused to be issued or paid by such other corporation or an affiliate thereof (except if such merger or consolidation does not result in the transfer of more than 50 percent of the voting securities of the Corporation), or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation for purposes of this <u>Section 4</u>, unless the Majority Holders vote otherwise. The amount deemed distributed to the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock upon any such merger or consolidation shall be the cash or the value of the property, rights and/or securities distributed to such holders by the acquiring person, firm or other entity. The value of such property, rights or other securities shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

**Section 5. Voting Rights.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Voting Generally</u>. Each Holder shall be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, by written action of shareholders in lieu of a meeting or otherwise), except as provided by law or by the provisions of <u>Section 5(b)</u> and <u>5(c)</u> below. In any such vote, (i) in the case of the election of directors, the Series C Preferred Stock shall be voted on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the Series C Preferred Stock shall be voted on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, subject to the provisions of the NRS and the Rules required by the Principal Market. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all shareholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Corporation's bylaws. In determining the number of votes on an as converted basis, the Conversion Price shall be as set forth in Section 6(a). For avoidance of doubt, in order to comply with the Rules of the Principal Market, the Series C Preferred Stock shall only have total voting power equal to up to 19.9% of outstanding Common Stock as on an as converted basis of the applicable record date, such that no Holder or group within the meaning of the Exchange Act shall be entitled to vote more than 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock on an as converted basis, taking into account other securities of the Corporation beneficially owned by such Holder or group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Protective Provisions</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, for so long as at least 25% of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, consent of the Majority Holders of the then-outstanding Series A Preferred shall be required for any action that: (i) alters or changes the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series C Preferred Stock, (ii) creates (by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or *pari passu* with the Series C Preferred Stock, (iii) results in the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to agreements with service providers giving the Corporation the right to repurchase shares upon the cessation and/or termination of services or other instruments or securities outstanding as of the date this Certificate is first filed with the Nevada Secretary of State), (iv) results in any Fundamental Transaction or any other merger, other corporate reorganization, sale of control, or any transaction in which all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation are sold, (v) amends or waives any provision of the Corporation's Articles or Bylaws relative to the Series C Preferred Stock, (vi) increases the number of directors who may serve on the Corporation's Board, (vii) results in the payment or declaration of any dividend on any shares of Common or Preferred Stock, other than spin-offs or dividends of common stock of any Subsidiary, or (viii) enters into any transaction that contemplates any of the foregoing. Holders shall be entitled to written notice of all shareholder meetings or written consents (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholder) with respect to which they would be entitled to vote, which notice shall be provided pursuant to the Corporation's Bylaws and the NRS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the voting rights provided by this Section 5 would otherwise cause the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock to be a transaction other than a public offering at below the Minimum Price as that term is defined under Nasdaq Rule 5635 and the accompanying instructions thereto, then the voting rights granted to the Holder(s) under this Section 5 shall be reduced proportionately as necessary to comply with such Nasdaq Rule.

**Section 6 Conversion of Series C Preferred Stock** **.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Optional Conversion</u>. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall become convertible, in whole or in part and at the option of the Holder, commencing on the Conversion Date, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value of the Series C Preferred Stock being converted by the then applicable Conversion Price (as defined below, the "**Conversion Price**"). The term "**Conversion Date**" means the first day after the record date for the shareholders meeting approving the issuance of more than 19.9% of outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as converted basis issuable pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in <u>Section 6(d)</u> below. No conversion shall be permitted to the extent that it violates the Rules of the Principal Market including the issuance of more than 19.9% of a class of equity security on an as converted basis without shareholder approval.

For purposes hereof, the term "**Conversion Price**" shall mean $0.25, subject to adjustment as provided in <u>Section 6(d)</u> below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Mechanics of Conversion</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Before any Holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock pursuant to <u>Section 6(a)</u> hereof, such Holder shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal corporate office of the election to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the conversion at issue, and the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued (each, a "**Notice of Conversion**"). No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required. The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. To effect conversions of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series C Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date at issue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and shall not be reissued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after delivery of the Notice of Conversion, in the case of a conversion pursuant to <u>Section 6(a)</u> hereof, and as soon as practicable after delivery of the certificate(s) evidencing the Series C Preferred Stock, within three (3) Business Days thereafter (the "**Share Delivery Date**"), issue and deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder or Holders, or to the nominee or nominees thereof, a certificate or certificates representing the number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which such Holder or Holders shall be entitled as aforesaid. Conversion under this <u>Section 6</u> shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of delivery of the Notice of Conversion, unless a later date is specified in the Notice of Conversion, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date (such date, the "**Conversion Date**"). If, in the case of any conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, such shares of Common Stock are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such shares of Common Stock, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to the Holder any original Series C Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation. The Corporation's obligation to issue and deliver the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such shares of Common Stock. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of the shares of its Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series C Preferred Stock of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the Stated Value of Series C Preferred Stock which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall issue shares of Common Stock and, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder such shares of Common Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u> by the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion and no injunction or similar court order is in effect, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $10,000 of Stated Value of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, $50 per Business Day (increasing to $100 per Business Day on the third Business Day and increasing to $200 per Business Day on the sixth Business Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Business Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Shares of Common Stock are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation's failure to deliver shares of Common Stock within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Fractional Shares; Computation Certificates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share for any shares in excess of one-half (1/2) or otherwise rounded down.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment of the Conversion Price of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock a statement, signed by its independent registered public accounting firm, setting forth such adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any Holder of Series C Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment, (B) the Conversion Price for such Series C Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such Series C Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Adjustments of the Conversion Price</u>. The Conversion Price of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Adjustments for Recapitalization</u>. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, merger, sale of assets or spin-off or stock dividend of any Subsidiary transaction provided for elsewhere in this <u>Section 6 or this Certificate</u>), provision shall be made so that the Holders shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> with respect to the rights of the Holders after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 6(d)(i) shall not apply to the planned spin-offs by the Corporation of the capital stock of White River Energy Corp and Wolf Energy Services Inc.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations.</u> If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this subsection shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Adjustments for Distribution</u>. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to <u>Section 6(d)</u> hereof, in the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or other securities of the Corporation, any Subsidiary or any other Persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Corporation, any Subsidiary or other Persons, assets (or rights to acquire assets), or options, rights or other property not referred to in <u>Section 6(e)</u> hereof to the holders of Common Stock, in each case whether by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (each, a "**Distribution**"), then, in each such case for the purpose of this <u>Section 6(d)</u>, the Holders shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such Distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such Distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Adjustment for Reorganization or Reclassification</u>. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation or a Change of Control Event, shall be effected while any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding in such a manner that holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, or Change of Control Event, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Holder who has not received the amounts to be distributed to such holder in accordance with this Certificate shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore so receivable had such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event not taken place, and in such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holders to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price, Conversion Rate and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be possible, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock. Prior to or simultaneously with the consummation of any such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event, the survivor or successor corporation (if other than the Corporation) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification or Change of Control Event shall assume by written instrument executed and mailed or delivered to each Holder, the obligation to deliver to such Holders such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to receive, and containing the express assumption by such successor corporation of the due and punctual performance and observance of every provision of this Certificate to be performed and observed by the Corporation and of all liabilities and obligations of the Corporation hereunder with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>Subsequent Equity Sales</u>. If, at any time while shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation or any Subsidiary, as applicable, closes a Qualified Financing in which it sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice outstanding securities, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalent, entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the "**Base Conversion Price**" and such issuances, collectively, a "**Dilutive Issuance**") (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Conversion Price. Such adjustment shall be made only on one occasion except if the Majority Holders elect to exchange its Exchange Shares, as defined in the share exchange whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Corporation agrees to consult with the Majority Holder prior to commencing any such Qualified Financing regarding its terms. Further, the Corporation shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 6, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the "**Dilutive Issuance Notice**"). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Corporation provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice, upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock determined based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Notice of Conversion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Certificate as to Adjustments</u>. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u>, the Corporation at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than five (5) days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any Holder (but in any event not later than five (5) days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Conversion Price then in effect, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Good Faith Assistance</u>. The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Articles or Bylaws or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holders against impairment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Notice of Record Taking</u>. In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the Holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the Holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Reservation of Shares</u>. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock (the "**Required Reserve Amount**"); and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to enable the Corporation to satisfy its obligation to have available for issuance upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount, then, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder, the Corporation will immediately take all such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, using its best efforts to obtain the requisite Shareholder Approval of any necessary amendment to these provisions as soon as possible. For avoidance of doubt, because the Corporation does not have sufficient authorized Common Stock as of the Issuance Date, it will reserve the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that it legally can and seek Shareholder Approval as provided in the Share Exchange Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Payment of Taxes</u>. The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or other transactional taxes (exclusive of income taxes) attributable to the issuance or delivery of shares of capital stock of the Corporation upon conversion of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for such shares in a name other than that of the holder of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock in respect of which such shares are being issued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Status of Shares</u>. All shares of Common Stock that may be issued in connection with the conversion provisions set forth herein will, upon issuance by the Corporation, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, Liens or charges with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Notice</u>. Any notice required by the provisions of this <u>Section 6</u> to be given to the Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be deemed given upon hand delivery, one (1) Business Day after the notice is sent by overnight courier or three (3) Business Days after the notice is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder of record at his address appearing on the stock books of the Corporation. The Corporation shall provide each Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to the terms of this Certificate, including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation shall give written notice to each Holder (i) promptly following any adjustment of the Conversion Price, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment and (ii) at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which the Corporation closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or Distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with respect to any grant, issuances, or sales of any Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents, assets or other property to all holders of shares of Common Stock as a class or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any matter on which the holders of Common Stock shall have the right to vote.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>Cancellation of Series C Preferred Stock</u>. In the event any shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to this <u>Section 6</u> or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation, the shares so converted or reacquired shall be canceled and may not be reissued. The Articles of the Corporation may be appropriately amended from time to time to effect the corresponding reduction in the Corporation's authorized capital stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>Conversion Disputes</u>. In the case of any dispute with respect to a conversion, the Corporation shall promptly issue such number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with <u>Section 6</u>(c) above as are not disputed. If such dispute involves the calculation of the Conversion Price, and such dispute is not promptly resolved by discussion between the relevant Holder and the Corporation, the Corporation shall submit the disputed calculations to an independent outside accountant within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of notice of such dispute. The accountant, at the Corporation's sole expense, shall promptly audit the calculations and notify the Corporation and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the date it receives the disputed calculations. The accountant's calculation shall be deemed conclusive, absent manifest error. The Corporation shall then issue the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 6(c) above. If the accountant determines the Corporation's calculations are correct, the Holder shall reimburse the Corporation for the accountant's expense.

**Section 7. Status of Acquired Shares.** All shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted by its Holder in accordance with <u>Section 6</u> hereof, or acquired by the Corporation, shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of undesignated Preferred Stock of the Corporation.

**Section 8. Ranking**. The Series C Preferred Stock will rank: (i) senior to (A) all of the Corporation's Common Stock, (B) the Corporation's issued and outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, and (C) and any other equity securities that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank junior to the Series C Preferred Stock, in each case with respect to payment of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up ("**Junior Stock**"); (ii) equal to the Series B Preferred Stock (with the Series C Preferred Stock, the "**Preferred Shares**") and any shares of equity securities that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank on par with such Series C Preferred Stock, in each case with respect to payment of amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders, the Corporation shall not create or issue any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking, by its terms, *pari passu* with, the Series C Preferred Stock ("**Parity Stock**"); and (iii) junior to all of the Corporation's existing and future indebtedness. Without prior written consent of the Majority Holders, the Corporation shall not create or issue any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, "**Senior Stock**"), as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.

**Section 9. Rights Upon Fundamental Transactions. The Corporation shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless: (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate in accordance with the provisions of this <u>Section 9</u> pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Majority Holders and approved by the Majority Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock in exchange for such shares of Series C Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate, including, without limitation, having a stated value equal to the stated value and dividend rate of the Series C Preferred Stock held by the Holders and having similar ranking to the Series C Preferred Stock, and reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose shares of common stock are quoted on or listed for trading on a Trading Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate referring to the "Corporation" shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation herein and therein. In addition to the foregoing, upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to each Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock at any time after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under <u>Section 6</u>, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) that each Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had all the shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by each Holder been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock contained in this Certificate), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Certificate. The provisions of this <u>Section 9</u> shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.** 

**Section 10. Intentionally Omitted.** 

**Section 11. Information Rights. During any period in which (i) the Corporation is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and (ii) at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued to the Holders thereof on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, the Corporation shall use its best efforts to (a) transmit by mail to all the Holders who at that time own more than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, as their names and addresses appear in the Corporation's record books and without cost to such Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports that the Corporation would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Corporation was subject to such sections (other than any exhibits that would have been required) and (b) promptly upon written request, supply copies of such reports to any prospective holder of Series C Preferred Stock; <u>provided</u>, that the requirements of this <u>Section 12</u> shall terminate on the six (6) month anniversary of the date on which the Corporation's Common Stock becomes subject to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The Corporation shall mail the reports to the Holders within 30 days after the respective dates by which the Corporation would have been required to file the reports with the Commission if the Corporation were then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, assuming the Corporation is a "non-accelerated filer" in accordance with the Exchange Act.**

**Section 12. Record Holders**. The Corporation and its transfer agent shall deem and treat the record Holder of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

**Section 13. Sinking Fund**. The Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to the benefits of any retirement or sinking fund.

**Section 14. Amendment of Resolution**. The Board reserves the right, subject to the terms of this Certificate, from time to time to increase (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or designated shares of Series C Preferred Stock) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding) the number of shares that constitute the Series C Preferred Stock by further resolution adopted by the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board and by the filing of a certificate pursuant to the provisions of the NRS stating that such increase or decrease, as the case may be, has been so authorized and in other respects to amend this Certificate within the limitations provided by law, this resolution and the Articles. Provided, however, that no increase contemplated by this Section 14 shall be made without the consent of the Majority Holders.

**Section 15. Restriction and Limitations. Except as expressly provided herein or as required by law so long as at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders, take any action which would adversely and materially affect any of the preferences, limitations or relative rights of the Series C Preferred Stock.**

**Section 16. Waiver. Any right or privilege of the Series C Preferred Stock may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by and only by the written consent of the Corporation and the Majority Holders and any such waiver shall be binding upon each holder of Series C Preferred Stock or other securities exercisable for or convertible into Series C Preferred Stock. No failure or delay on the part of a Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.**

**Section 18. Lost or Stolen Certificates. Upon receipt by the Corporation of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificates representing Series C Preferred Stock (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the applicable Holder to the Corporation in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the certificate(s), the Corporation shall execute and deliver new certificate(s) of like tenor and date.**

**Section 18. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Certificate shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Certificate and any of the other transaction documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy. Nothing herein shall limit any Holder's right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate. The Corporation covenants to each Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by a Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Corporation (or the performance thereof). The Corporation acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holders and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Corporation therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, each Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The Corporation shall provide all information and documentation to a Holder that is requested by such Holder to enable such Holder to confirm the Corporation's compliance with the terms and conditions of this Certificate.**

**Section 19. Non-circumvention. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that the Corporation will not, by amendment of its Articles, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Certificate, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Certificate and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Certificate, the Corporation (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the conversion of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock above the Stated Value then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of Series C Preferred Stock and (iii) shall, so long as any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Required Reserve Amount, subject to this Certificate.**

**Section 20. Transfer of Series C Preferred Stock. A Holder may transfer some or all of its shares of Series C Preferred Stock without the consent of the Corporation. Any such transfer shall comply with all applicable securities laws.**

**Section 21. Register. The Corporation shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Corporation as it may designate by notice to the Holders), a register for the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, in which the Corporation shall record the name, address and facsimile number of the Persons in whose name the shares of Series C Preferred Stock have been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee. The Corporation may treat the Person in whose name any shares of Series C Preferred Stock is registered on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but in all events recognizing any properly made transfers.**

**Section 22. Amendment. This Certificate or any provision hereof may be amended by obtaining the affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose, or by written consent without a meeting in accordance with the NRS, of the Majority Holders, voting separately as a single class, and with such other shareholder approval, if any, as may then be required pursuant to the NRS and the Corporation's Articles and Bylaws.**

**Section 23. Severability. If any provision of this Certificate is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law.** 

**Section 24. Next Business Day. Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.**

**Section 25. Headings. The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Certificate and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.**

 **Section 26. Principal Market Compliance**. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if while the Common Stock is listed on the Principal Market any of the terms, provisions, rights, covenants and restrictions set forth in this Certificate are determined by the Principal Market to be in violation of any of the Principal Market Rules, then such terms, provisions, rights, covenants or restrictions shall be of no force and effect to the extent of such noncompliance, and shall otherwise be interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with compliance with such Principal Market Rules. In the event the immediately preceding sentence applies, the remainder of the terms, provisions, rights, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated.

Pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "**NRS**") and Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the "**Articles**") of Ecoark Holdings, Inc. (the "**Corporation**"):

**WHEREAS**, on March 6, 2023, following the approval of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "**Board**"), the Corporation filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, the Certificate of Designation of the Rights, Preferences and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (as amended, the "**Certificate**"); and

**WHEREAS**, it is the desire of the Board to amend the Certificate; and

**WHEREAS**, the Board, pursuant to the authority conferred upon it by Article IV of the Articles and in accordance with Section 78.1955 of the NRS, adopted the following resolutions:

**RESOLVED**, that that the Certificate be amended as follows:

Section 5 of the Certificate is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

**Section 5. Voting Rights.**

 ****

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Voting Generally</u>. Each Holder shall be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, with the number of votes that each Holder shall be entitled to vote to be determined by dividing the Stated Value by $0.330066 (the "Voting Formula") with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, by written action of shareholders in lieu of a meeting or otherwise), except as provided by law or by the provisions of Section 5(b) and 5(c) below. In any such vote, (i) in the case of the election of directors, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote at the Voting Formula together with the Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote at the Voting Formula together with the Common Stock, subject in each case to the provisions of the NRS and the Rules of the Principal Market. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all shareholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Corporation's Bylaws. For avoidance of doubt, in order to comply with the Rules of the Principal Market, the Series B Preferred Stock shall only have total voting power equal to up to 19.9% of outstanding Common Stock on an as converted basis as of the applicable record date, such that no Holder or group within the meaning of the Exchange Act shall be entitled to vote more than 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock on an as converted basis, taking into account other securities of the Corporation beneficially owned by such Holder or group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Protective Provisions</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, for so long as at least 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the Holder on the Issuance Date remain outstanding, consent of the Majority Holders shall be required for any action that: (i) alters or changes the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) creates (by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having rights, preferences or privileges senior to or *pari passu* with the Series B Preferred Stock, (iii) results in the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Common Stock (other than pursuant to agreements with service providers giving the Corporation the right to repurchase shares upon the cessation and/or termination of services or other instruments or securities outstanding as of the date this Certificate is first filed with the Nevada Secretary of State), (iv) results in any Fundamental Transaction or any other merger, other corporate reorganization, sale of control, or any transaction in which all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation are sold, (v) amends or waives any provision of the Corporation's Articles or Bylaws relative to the Series B Preferred Stock, (vi) increases the number of directors who may serve on the Corporation's Board, (vii) results in the payment or declaration of any dividend on any shares of Common or Preferred Stock, other than spin-offs or dividends of common stock of any Subsidiary, or (viii) enters into any transaction that contemplates any of the foregoing. Holders shall be entitled to written notice of all shareholder meetings or written consents (and copies of proxy materials and other information sent to shareholder) with respect to which they would be entitled to vote, which notice shall be provided pursuant to the Corporation's Bylaws and the NRS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Election of Directors</u>. Provided that Shareholder Approval shall have been obtained, for so long as the Majority Holder shall continue to hold at least 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued to it on the Issuance Date, the Holders shall be entitled to elect a number of directors to the Corporation's Board equal to at least a majority of the Board. For so long as the Holders shall continue to hold 25% of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued on the Issuance Date, any Series B Director elected as provided in the preceding sentence may be removed without cause by, and only by, the affirmative vote of the Holder, given either at a special meeting of such shareholders duly called for that purpose or pursuant to a written consent of the Holder. The holders of record of the shares of Common Stock and of any other class or series of voting stock (including the Series B Preferred Stock), exclusively and voting together as a single class, shall be entitled to elect the balance of the total number of directors of the Corporation. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing a director, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the shares of the class or series entitled to elect such director shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of electing such director. Except as otherwise provided in this <u>Section 5(c)</u>, a vacancy in any directorship filled by the holders of any class or series shall be filled only by vote or written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of such class or series or by any remaining director or directors elected by the holders of such class or series pursuant to this <u>Section 5(c)</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 5(c) and the voting rights provided hereunder shall not apply and shall be of no force and effect if and at any time when the Holder(s) of the Series B Preferred Stock beneficially own, as defined by Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, less than 25% of the Corporation's Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the voting rights provided by this Section 5 would otherwise cause the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to be a transaction other than a public offering at below the Minimum Price as that term is defined under Nasdaq Rule 5635 and the accompanying instructions thereto, then the voting rights granted to the Holder(s) under this Section 5 shall be reduced proportionately as necessary to comply with such Nasdaq Rule. For the avoidance of doubt, the Voting Formula set forth above and the use of $0.33006 thereunder, which number is the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five Trading Days immediately preceding February 8, 2023, the date that the Share Exchange Agreement was originally signed by the Corporation, is designed to comply with Nasdaq Rules, including Rule 5635.

2. Section 6 of the Certificate is amended by adding a new subsection (n) which reads as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Limitations on Conversions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be convertible by a Holder into shares of Common Stock, and the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock into or otherwise issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant hereto, to the extent (but only to the extent) that after giving effect to such Conversion or other share issuance hereunder the Holder (together with its Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the "**Maximum Percentage**") of the Common Stock. To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible (vis-à-vis other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates) and of which such securities shall be convertible, exercisable or exchangeable (as among all such securities owned by the Holder and its Affiliates) shall, subject to such Maximum Percentage limitation, be determined on the basis of the first submission for conversion or exercise (as the case may be). Under no circumstances can the Maximum Percentage limitation be amended on less than 61 days' notice, if, as a result of such amendment, the Maximum Percentage is amended to be above 9.99%. No prior inability to convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock, or to issue shares of Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. For purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including, without limitation, with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this paragraph to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Maximum Percentage beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such Maximum Percentage limitation. For any reason at any time until the shares of Series C Preferred Stock has been converted, upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Corporation shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding, including by virtue of any prior conversion, exchange or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities into Common Stock, including, without limitation, shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

**Amendment to Share Exchange Agreement**

This Amendment (the "Amendment") is dated as of March 6, 2023 and amends the Share Exchange Agreement dated February 8, 2023 (the "Agreement") by and among Ecoark Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Ecoark") and Ault Alliance, Inc. ("AAI") as majority shareholder of BiNile.com, Inc. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meaning given them in the Agreement.

By signing below, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by each Party, the Parties agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Article I of the Agreement is amended as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A new definition is added which reads as follows: "'Amendment" means that certain Amendment dated as of March 6, 2023 by and among the Parties amending this Agreement.'"

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The definition of "Required Minimum" in the Agreement is amended to read in its entirety as follows: "'Required Minimum' means, as of any date, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issued or potentially issuable in the future pursuant to the conversion of the Exchange Shares, ignoring any conversion or exercise limits set forth therein."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Section 2.1(b) of the Agreement is amended by replacing the words "at the time of Closing"
in the last sentence with "as of the date of this Agreement."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. A new Section 2.5(b)(x) is hereby added to the Agreement, which reads as follows: "(x) The Company
shall have established a bonus pool pursuant to which, upon the date that the Subject Company shall have generated $100 million of revenue
calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Company shall pay a bonus in the aggregate amount of $25 million to three executives of AAI (the
"AAI Executives"), in the following proportions: (i) $10 million, (ii) $10 million and (iii) $5 million. Such bonus payments
shall be made in cash, provided, however, that if in AAI's reasonable determination the payment of the foregoing bonus payments
would materially and adversely impact the Company's cash position, AAI shall direct the Company to make such payments to the AAI
Executives in shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable by the Company shall in such case be determined by
dividing the amount of the bonus payment by the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding AAI's
determination."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Section 4.24 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.24 Restriction on Redemption and Cash Dividends; Indemnification**. (a) For as long as AAI holds any Exchange Shares (the "**Obligation Period**"), the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem, or declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on, any securities of the Company without the written consent of AAI. This Section 4.24 shall not apply to any spin-off by the Company of any securities of any Subsidiary, including White River Energy Corp. and Wolf Energy Services, Inc. In the event that the record date for shareholders entitled to receive the Company's dividends of Common stock of White River Energy Corp and/or Wolf Energy Services, Inc. is changed for any reason (in either case, the "**Record Date**"), each of the Shareholders acknowledges and agrees that it will not be entitled to receive such dividend in its capacity of a holder of Exchange Shares or Conversion Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees and acknowledges that, to the extent that either of the foregoing Record Date(s) is changed, whether or not within the Obligation Period, and such change of a Record Date results in either a class action suit or a derivative action against the Company or any other kind of litigation against the Company for failure to spin off securities of White River Energy Corp and/or Wolf Energy Services, Inc. to such persons who were holders of shares of Common Stock, either beneficially or of record, prior to the change of a Record Date (the "**Plaintiffs**"), and such litigation ultimately results in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in favor of such holders, then the Company shall issue to AAI, within five business days of the final judgment, such number of additional shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock having a stated value equal to any (i) damages or legal fees awarded to the Plaintiffs, (ii) the actual expenses of its counsel(s), (iii) the cost of the Company's counsel engaged to defend any such action, (iv) any other litigation-related costs, and (v) any costs provided for in any settlement agreement with the Plaintiffs, all rounded up to nearest one hundred dollars ($100.00).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. A new section entitled "**Section 4.39 Negative Working Capital**" is hereby added to
the Agreement, which reads as follows: "To the extent that the Company has negative working capital at Closing calculated in accordance
with GAAP, such deficiency shall be remedied by the issuance to AAI, within 15 business days of Closing, such number of additional shares
of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock having a stated value equal to any such negative working capital, rounded up to nearest one hundred
dollars ($100.00)."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. A new section entitled "**Section 4.40 Subject Company Warrants**" is hereby added to the
Agreement, which reads as follows: "The Subject Company has issued warrants to two entities
entitling each of them to purchase 50,000 shares of BNC Common Stock, which represents an aggregate of approximately 1% of the total shares
of BNC Common Stock issued and outstanding. The Warrants will be exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $10.00 per share,
which reflects a $100 million valuation of the Subject Company. When the Subject Company Warrants are exchanged for warrants to purchase
shares of Common Stock of Ecoark at Closing in accordance with the terms of the Subject Company Warrants (the "**Exchange Warrants** "),
such Exchange Warrants will carry piggyback registration rights.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Section 1 of each of the form of Series B Certificate of Designation and the form of Series C Certificate
of Designation attached as Exhibits A and B to the Agreement, respectively, is amended by replacing "10,000" and "2,000",
with "12,000" and "2,500, respectively."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. The definition of "Share Exchange Agreement" in Section 2 of each of the form of Series B
Certificate of Designation and the form of Series C Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibits A and B to the Agreement,
respectively, is amended by adding "as amended" at the end of each such definition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. Section 3(a) of each of the form of Series B Certificate of Designation and the form of Series C Certificate
of Designation attached as Exhibits A and B to the Agreement, respectively, is amended by replacing "February 7, 2033" with
"the 10-year anniversary of the Issuance Date."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. Section 5(a) of the form of Series B Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibit A to the Agreement
is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Voting Generally</u>. Each Holder shall be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, provided that each Holder shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, by written action of shareholders in lieu of a meeting or otherwise), except as provided by law or by the provisions of <u>Section 5(b)</u> and <u>5(c)</u> below. In any such vote, (i) in the case of the election of directors, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote per share of Common Stock on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one (1) per share of Common Stock on an "as converted" basis together with the Common Stock, subject in each case to the provisions of the NRS and the Rules of the Principal Market. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all shareholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Corporation's bylaws. In determining the number of votes on an as converted basis, the Conversion Price shall be as set forth in Section 6(a). For avoidance of doubt, in order to comply with the Rules of the Principal Market, the Series B Preferred Stock shall only have total voting power equal to up to 19.9% of outstanding Common Stock as of the applicable record date, such that no Holder or group within the meaning of the Exchange Act shall be entitled to vote more than 19.9% of the outstanding Common Stock, taking into account other securities of the Corporation beneficially owned by such Holder or group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Section 6(d)(v) of each of the form of Series B Certificate of Designation and the form of Series C Certificate
of Designation attached as Exhibits A and B to the Agreement, respectively, is amended by replacing "Conversion Shares" with
"shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock determined" and "shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock determined," respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. Each of the form of Series B Certificate of Designation and the form of Series C Certificate of Designation
attached as Exhibits A and B to the Agreement, respectively, is amended to clarify that the 19.9% limitations set forth therein apply
"on an as converted basis." The Parties also agree that the same or similar limitations contained in the Company's Series
A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock apply and shall be interpreted to apply "on an as converted basis."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. Section 11 of the form of Series C Certificate attached as Exhibit B to the Agreement is amended by replacing
the word "Holder" in the first sentence with "Holders thereof".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. The Transfer Agent Instruction Letter attached as Exhibit D to the Agreement is replaced in its entirety
with <u>Exhibit A</u> to this Amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. The Disclosure Schedules to the Agreement are replaced in their entirety with <u>Exhibit B</u> to this
Amendment. For the avoidance, the Disclosure Schedules included in the Agreement pursuant to this Section 15 and <u>Exhibit B</u> to this
Amendment include updated Disclosure Schedules of the Company, which among other things contain supplemental disclosure in Schedule 3.1(v)
relating to communications and correspondence received by the Company from the Principal Market subsequent to February 8, 2023 concerning
the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
