CERTIFICATE OF FOURTH AMENDMENT

TO THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF

BIOSIG TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

BioSig Technologies, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”),

 

DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:

 

FIRST:  That the name of the Corporation is BioSig Technologies, Inc.

 

SECOND: That the Corporation’s original Certificate of Incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 21, 2011.

 

THIRD:  That the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February 6, 2013.

 

FOURTH:  That the Board of Directors of the Corporation has duly adopted resolutions proposing to amend the Charter, and that said amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 228 and 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.  This Certificate of Amendment amends the provisions of the Charter as set forth herein.

 

FIFTH:  That the text of the Charter is hereby amended as follows:

 

	
1.  

	
In Exhibit C of the Charter, Section 10(b) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

“Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event (except such Triggering Events set forth in Sections 10(a)(v) and 10(a)(viii)), each Holder shall (in addition to all other rights it may have hereunder or under applicable law) have the right, exercisable at the sole option of such Holder, to require the Corporation with respect to each share of Preferred Stock to, (A) redeem each share of Preferred Stock then held by such Holder for a redemption price, in cash, equal to the Triggering Redemption Amount or (B) either (a) redeem each share of Preferred Stock then held by such Holder for a redemption price, in shares of Common Stock, equal to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Triggering Redemption Amount divided by 75% of the average of the 10 VWAPs immediately prior to the date of election hereunder, or (b) increase the dividend rate on all of the outstanding Preferred Stock held by such Holder to 18% per annum thereafter.  Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event set forth in Sections 10(a)(v) or 10(a)(viii), the Corporation shall automatically reduce the Conversion Price to $1.50, subject to the other and further adjustments described herein.  The Triggering Redemption Amount, in cash or in shares, shall be due and payable or issuable, as the case may be, within five Trading Days of the date on which the notice for the payment therefor is provided by a Holder (the “Triggering Redemption Payment Date”). If the Corporation fails to pay in full the Triggering Redemption Amount hereunder on the date such amount is due in accordance with this Section (whether in cash or shares of Common Stock), the Corporation will pay interest thereon at a rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, accruing daily from such date until the Triggering Redemption Amount, plus all such interest thereon, is paid in full.  For purposes of this Section, a share of Preferred Stock is outstanding until such date as the applicable Holder shall have received Conversion Shares upon a conversion (or attempted conversion) thereof that meets the requirements hereof or has been paid the Triggering Redemption Amount in cash.”
