Based on DropCar’s capitalization as of March 25, 2020, DropCar had issued and outstanding:
 
4,551,882 shares of DropCar common stock held by 33 stockholders of record;
 
37,047 shares of DropCar convertible preferred stock held by 6 stockholders of record; and

o
3,320,269 shares for issuance upon conversion of the outstanding shares of DropCar’s convertible preferred stock; and

4,300,560 shares for issuance upon exercise of DropCar’s outstanding warrants.
 
Common Stock
 
Holders of DropCar common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of DropCar common stock those shares of Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock owned on the record date, on an as-if converted to DropCar common stock basis, subject to certain beneficial ownership blockers. Each election of directors by DropCar’s stockholders will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote on the election. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately any dividends as may be declared by the DropCar Board of Directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock.
 
In the event of DropCar’s liquidation or dissolution, the holders of DropCar common stock are entitled to receive proportionately all assets available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any of DropCar’s outstanding preferred stock. Holders of DropCar common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of DropCar common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of DropCar preferred stock that it may designate and issue in the future.
 
 
 
 
Preferred Stock
 
Under the terms of the DropCar Charter, the DropCar Board of Directors is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval. The DropCar Board of Directors has the discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of preferred stock.
 
The purpose of authorizing the DropCar Board of Directors to issue preferred stock and determine its rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, future financings and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to acquire, or could discourage a third-party from seeking to acquire, a majority of DropCar’s outstanding voting stock.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, the DropCar Charter and DropCar Bylaws
 
Delaware Law
 
DropCar is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder, generally a person which together with its affiliates owns, or within the last three years has owned, 15% of DropCar’s voting stock, for a period of three (3) years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder, unless either the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of the DropCar Board of Directors, the business combination is approved by the DropCar Board of Directors and stockholders in a prescribed manner or the interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of DropCar’s outstanding voting stock in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder. A “business combination” includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving DropCar and the “interested stockholder” and the sale of more than 10% of DropCar’s assets. In general, an “interested stockholder” is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of DropCar’s outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person. The restrictions contained in Section 203 are not applicable to any of DropCar’s existing stockholders that owned 15% or more of DropCar’s outstanding voting stock upon the closing of DropCar’s initial public offering.
 
Potential Effects of Authorized but Unissued Stock
 
DropCar has shares of common stock and preferred stock available for future issuance without stockholder approval. DropCar may utilize these additional shares for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, to facilitate corporate acquisitions or payment as a dividend on the capital stock.
 
The existence of unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock may enable the DropCar Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management or to issue preferred stock with terms that could render more difficult or discourage a third-party attempt to obtain control of DropCar by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, thereby protecting the continuity of DropCar’s management. In addition, the DropCar Board of Directors has the discretion to determine designations, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences of each series of preferred stock, all to the fullest extent permissible under the DGCL and subject to any limitations set forth in the DropCar Charter. The purpose of authorizing the DropCar Board of Directors to issue preferred stock and to determine the rights and preferences applicable to such preferred stock is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible financings, acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to acquire, or could discourage a third-party from acquiring, a majority of DropCar’s outstanding voting stock.
 
Limitations of Director Liability and Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees
 
Section 145 of the DGCL, permits indemnification of directors, officers, agents and controlling persons of a corporation under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations. Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or agent of the corporation or another enterprise if serving at the request of DropCar. Depending on the character of the proceeding, a corporation may indemnify against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person indemnified acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification may be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that despite the adjudication of liability such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper. Section 145 further provides that to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.
