The address of its registered office in the State of Delaware is 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, DE 19801, in the county of New Castle. The name of its registered agent at such address is The Corporation Trust Company.
ARTICLE III: PURPOSE.
The nature of the business or purposes to be conducted or promoted is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 139,189,499 shares, all of which shall be designated as Common Stock of the Corporation, par value $0.001 per share.

Immediately upon the effectiveness of this Sixth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (this “Restated Certificate”), all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Converted Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Restated Certificate shall be automatically converted into shares of Common stock of the Corporation (the “Share Conversion”). The Converted Shares shall convert into shares of Common Stock based upon the following conversion ratios: (i) the shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Share Conversion shall convert into Common Stock on a 1:1 basis whereby each one (1) share of Series A Preferred of the Corporation shall be converted into one (1) share of Common Stock of the Corporation; (ii) the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Share Conversion shall convert into shares of Common Stock on a 1:1.7722 basis whereby each one (1) share of Series A-1 Preferred of the Corporation shall be converted into 1.7722 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation; (iii) the shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Share Conversion shall convert into shares of Common Stock on a 1:1.9038 basis whereby each one (1) share of Series A-2 Preferred of the Corporation shall be converted into 1.9038 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation; (iv) the shares of Series B Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Share Conversion shall convert into shares of Common Stock on a 1:3.5172 basis whereby each one (1) share of Series B Preferred of the Corporation shall be converted into 3.5172 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation; and (v) the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Share Conversion shall convert into shares of Common Stock on a 1:8.9191 basis whereby each one (1) share of Series A Preferred of the Corporation shall be converted into 8.9191 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation.

Series B-1 Preferred Stock shall no longer be a series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation and shall be deemed eliminated in the entirety by this Restated Certificate.

The Share Conversion shall be governed by the terms of that certain Preferred Stock Conversion Agreement by and between the Corporation and the stockholders named therein and dated April 3, 2019 pursuant to which the stockholders holding the requisite shares of Preferred Stock have elected to convert the Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.11.1 and Section 3.11.2 of the Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation as in effect immediately prior to the filing of this Restated Certificate.

The Share Conversion shall be deemed to have taken place automatically regardless of whether stock certificates representing the Converted Shares have been tendered to the Corporation, but from and after such Share Conversion any such certificate not tendered to the Corporation shall be deemed to evidence solely the right to receive Common Stock as set forth in the books and records of the Corporation. Without derogating from the foregoing, each holder of the Converted Shares shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed (or if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the Corporation. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the conversion and the tendering of the certificates representing the Conversion Shares by the holder thereof to the Corporation, issue and deliver to such holder of Converted Shares a certificate or certificates for the number of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid.

The following rights, powers and privileges, and restrictions, qualifications and limitations, shall apply to the Common Stock. Unless otherwise indicated, references to “Sections” in this Article IV refer to sections of this Article IV.
