14


under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, (ii) if, after the redemption in full of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall ratably redeem each holder’s shares of Series E Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such Available Proceeds, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series E Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, (iii) if, after the redemption in full of the Series F Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock, the remaining Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall ratably redeem each holder’s shares of Series D Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such Available Proceeds, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series D Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, (iv) if, after the redemption in full of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock, the remaining Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall ratably redeem each holder’s shares of Series C Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such Available Proceeds, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series C Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, (v) if, after the redemption in full of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, the remaining Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Tier 1 Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall ratably redeem (based upon the aggregate amount payable on each share of Tier 1 Preferred Stock if the Applicable Redemption Price for such share was paid in full) each holder’s shares of Tier 1 Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such remaining Available Proceeds, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Tier 1 Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders and (vi) if, after the redemption in full of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Tier 1 Preferred Stock, the remaining Available Proceeds are not sufficient to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall ratably redeem each holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the fullest extent of such remaining Available Proceeds, and shall redeem the remaining shares of Series A Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders.

Subject to Subsection 2.8.5 below, to the extent that the Distributed Amount consists of cash and non-cash consideration, the portion of the Distributed Amount consisting of cash consideration and the portion of the Distributed Amount consisting of non-cash consideration, respectively, shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation on a pro rata basis.

2.8.4    Allocation of Escrow. In the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event, if any portion of the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation is placed into escrow and/or is payable to the stockholders of the Corporation subject to contingencies (the “Additional Consideration”), the Purchase Agreement or other acquisition agreement shall provide that (a) the portion of such consideration that is not Additional Consideration (the “Initial Consideration”) shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Subsections 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6 and 2.7 as if the Initial Consideration were the only consideration payable in connection with such Deemed Liquidation Event and (b) any Additional Consideration which becomes payable to the stockholders of the Corporation upon release from escrow or satisfaction of contingencies shall be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Subsections 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6 and 2.7 after taking into account the previous payment of the Initial Consideration as part of the same transaction.

The Applicable Conversion Price, and the rate at which shares of each series of Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment as provided below.

4.1.2    Regulated Investor Right to Convert. Subject to Subsection 4.1.3 below, each Regulated Investor shall, at its option, have the right to irrevocably convert (i) any shares of Series E-1 Preferred Stock held by such holder into an equivalent number of shares of

 

26


Series E-2 Preferred Stock (i.e., on a one-to-one basis), (ii) any shares of Series F-1 Preferred Stock held by such holder into an equivalent number of shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock (i.e., on a one-to-one basis) and (iii) any shares of Class A Common Stock held by such holder into an equivalent number of shares of Class B Common Stock (i.e., on a one-to-one basis), in each case, at any time and without the payment of additional consideration by such holder. Upon receipt of any notice from a Regulated Investor of its election to convert any shares of the Corporation’s capital stock held by such Regulated Investor pursuant to this Subsection 4.1.2, prior to effecting such conversion, the Corporation shall promptly (and, in any event, within three business days after receipt of such notice) notify in writing all other Regulated Investors of all terms of such conversion, including (A) the Regulated Investor effecting such conversion and (B) the number, class and series of shares which such Regulated Investor is converting and the number, class and series of such shares into which such shares shall convert.

4.1.4    Termination of Conversion Rights. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or a Deemed Liquidation Event, the Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the last full day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any such amounts distributable on such event to the holders of Preferred Stock.

4.2    Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Whether or not fractional shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

 

27


4.3    Mechanics of Conversion.

4.3.1    Notice of Conversion. In order for a holder of Common Stock or Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, respectively, pursuant to this Section 4, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (or, if such registered 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 transfer agent for the Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of Common Stock or shares of Preferred Stock represented by such certificate or certificates and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent. Such notice shall state such holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) of such certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) and notice shall be the time of conversion (the “Conversion Time”), and the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as the case may be) issuable upon conversion of the shares represented by such certificate shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Time, (i) issue and deliver to such holder of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as the case may be) issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as they case may be) represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as the case may be), (ii) pay in cash such amount as provided in Subsection 4.2 in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and (iii) pay all declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of Preferred Stock converted.

4.3.2    Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times when any shares of Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion rights of the holders of Preferred Stock and the Regulated Investors, such number of its duly authorized shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Series E-1 Preferred Stock, Series E-2 Preferred Stock, Series F-1 Preferred Stock and Series F-2 Preferred Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of capital stock in accordance with Part B.3 of this Article Fourth and this Section 4; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Series E-1 Preferred Stock, Series E-2 Preferred Stock, Series F-1 Preferred Stock or Series F-2 Preferred Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of capital stock in accordance with Part B.3 of this Article Fourth and this Section 4, the Corporation shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Series E-1 Preferred Stock, Series E-2 Preferred Stock, Series F-

 

28


1 Preferred Stock and/or Series F-2 Preferred Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Applicable Conversion Price below the then par value of the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as the case may be, at such adjusted Applicable Conversion Price. Prior to or concurrently with the consummation of any Dispersion Transaction, the Corporation shall, to the extent necessary, engage in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval to amend and/or restate this Certificate of Incorporation and duly authorize such number of shares of Class A Common Stock, Series E-1 Preferred Stock or Series F-1 Preferred Stock, as the case may be, as shall be sufficient to effect the conversion of all shares of Class B Common Stock, Series E-2 Preferred Stock or Series F-2 Preferred Stock as then permitted under Subsection 4.1.3.

4.3.3    Effect of Conversion. All shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock (or Preferred Stock, as the case may be) in exchange therefor, to receive payment in lieu of any fraction of a share otherwise issuable upon such conversion as provided in Subsection 4.2 and to receive payment of any dividends declared but unpaid thereon. Any shares of Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series.

4.3.4    No Further Adjustment. Upon any such conversion, no adjustment to the Applicable Conversion Price shall be made for any declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of such series of Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion or on the Common Stock delivered upon conversion.

4.3.5    Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, respectively, pursuant to this Section 4. The Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, in a name other than that in which the shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, respectively, so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid.

4.4    Adjustments to Applicable Conversion Price for Diluting Issues.

4.4.2    No Adjustment of Applicable Conversion Price. With respect to each series of Preferred Stock, no adjustment in the Applicable Conversion Price shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock if the Corporation receives written notice from the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of such affected series of Preferred Stock agreeing that no such adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock (with (x) the Series B1 Preferred Stock and Series B1-NV Preferred Stock being treated as one series for this purpose, (y) the Series E-1 Preferred Stock and the Series E-2 Preferred Stock being treated as one series for this purpose, with each holder of shares of Series E-2 Preferred Stock being entitled to vote upon, or consent with respect to, such shares of Series E-2 Preferred Stock they may hold, any such waiver of any adjustment to the Series E Conversion Price pursuant to this Subsection 4.4.2 and with all such shares of Series E-2 Preferred Stock being counted, both in the numerator and in the denominator, for purposes of determining whether the consent of the holders of a majority of the Series E Preferred Stock has been obtained and (z) the Series F-1 Preferred Stock and the Series F-2 Preferred Stock being treated as one series for this purpose, with each holder of shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock being entitled to vote upon, or consent with respect to, such shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock they may hold, any such waiver of any adjustment to the Series F Conversion Price pursuant to this Subsection 4.4.2 and with all such shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock being counted, both in the numerator and in the denominator, for purposes of determining whether the consent of the holders of a majority of the Series F Preferred Stock has been obtained).

4.4.3    Deemed Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

(a)    If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities) or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class or series of securities entitled to receive any such

 

31


Options or Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, convertibility or exchangeability but without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date.

(b)    If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security, the issuance of which resulted in an adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Subsection 4.4.4, are revised as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any increase or decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, then, effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective, such Applicable Conversion Price computed upon the original issue of such Option or Convertible Security (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto) shall be readjusted to such Applicable Conversion Price as would have been obtained had such revised terms been in effect upon the original date of issuance of such Option or Convertible Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no readjustment pursuant to this clause (b) shall have the effect of increasing an Applicable Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the corresponding Applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the original adjustment made as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security, or (ii) the corresponding Applicable Conversion Price that would have resulted from any issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock (other than deemed issuances of Additional Shares of Common Stock as a result of the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security) between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date.

(c)    If the terms of any Option or Convertible Security (excluding Options or Convertible Securities which are themselves Exempted Securities), the issuance of which did not result in an adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Subsection 4.4.4 (either because the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Subsection 4.4.5) of the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto was equal to or greater than such Applicable Conversion Price then in effect, or because such Option or Convertible Security was issued before the Original Issue Date), are revised after the Original Issue Date as a result of an amendment to such terms or any other adjustment pursuant to the provisions of such Option or Convertible Security (but excluding automatic adjustments to such terms pursuant to anti-dilution or similar provisions of such Option or Convertible Security) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such Option or Convertible Security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such Option or Convertible Security, as so amended or adjusted, and the Additional Shares of Common Stock subject thereto (determined in the manner provided in Subsection 4.4.3(a)) shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.

 

32


(d)    Upon the expiration or termination of any unexercised Option or unconverted or unexchanged Convertible Security (or portion thereof) which resulted (either upon its original issuance or upon a revision of its terms) in an adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Subsection 4.4.4, such Applicable Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Applicable Conversion Price as would have been obtained had such Option or Convertible Security (or portion thereof) never been issued.

(e)    If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, is calculable at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended but is subject to adjustment based upon subsequent events, any adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price provided for in this Subsection 4.4.3 shall be effected at the time of such issuance or amendment based on such number of shares or amount of consideration without regard to any provisions for subsequent adjustments (and any subsequent adjustments shall be treated as provided in clauses (b) and (c) of this Subsection 4.4.3). If the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion and/or exchange of any Option or Convertible Security, or the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion and/or exchange, cannot be calculated at all at the time such Option or Convertible Security is issued or amended, any adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price that would result under the terms of this Subsection 4.4.3 at the time of such issuance or amendment shall instead be effected at the time such number of shares and/or amount of consideration is first calculable (even if subject to subsequent adjustments), assuming for purposes of calculating such adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price that such issuance or amendment took place at the time such calculation can first be made.

4.4.4    Adjustment of Applicable Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Original Issue Date issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Subsection 4.4.3), without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Applicable Conversion Price of a series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance, then the Applicable Conversion Price of such series of Preferred Stock shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

CP2 = CP1 * (A + B) ÷ (A + C).

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

(a)    “CP2” shall mean the Applicable Conversion Price of such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately after such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock

(b)    “CP1” shall mean the Applicable Conversion Price of such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock;

 

33


(c)    “A” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Options outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or deemed issuance or upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities (including the Preferred Stock) outstanding (assuming exercise of any outstanding Options therefor) immediately prior to such issue);

(d)    “B” shall mean the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued or deemed issued if such Additional Shares of Common Stock had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation in respect of such issue by CP1); and

(e)    “C” shall mean the number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock issued in such transaction.

4.4.5    Determination of Consideration. For purposes of this Subsection 4.4, the consideration received by the Corporation for the issuance or deemed issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:

(a)    Cash and Property: Such consideration shall:

(i)    insofar as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received by the Corporation, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest;

(ii)    insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation; and

(iii)    in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

(b)    Options and Convertible Securities. The consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Subsection 4.4.3, relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent

 

34


adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

4.4.6    Multiple Closing Dates. In the event the Corporation shall issue on more than one date Additional Shares of Common Stock that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to an Applicable Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of Subsection 4.4.4, and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than one hundred twenty (120) days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, such Applicable Conversion Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period).

4.5    Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, each Applicable 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 of Preferred Stock 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 Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, each Applicable 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 of Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Any adjustment under this Subsection 4.5 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

4.6    Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Common Stock in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event each Applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying such Applicable Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(a)    the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

(b)    the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

35


Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, each Applicable Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Applicable Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Subsection 4.6 as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions; and (b) that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of the applicable series of Preferred Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common Stock in a number equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as they would have received if all outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

4.7    Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than a distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock) or in other property and the provisions of Section 1 do not apply to such dividend or distribution, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of each series of Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Corporation, cash or other property which they would have been entitled to receive had such series of Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph with respect to the rights of the holders of shares of Preferred Stock; provided, however, that no such provision shall be made if the holders of shares of such series of Preferred Stock shall receive, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities or other property as they would have received if all outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.

4.8    Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc. Subject to the provisions of Subsection 2.8, if there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, substitution, exchange, reclassification, consolidation or merger involving the Corporation in which the Common Stock (but not one or more series of Preferred Stock) is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Subsection 4.4, 4.6 or 4.7), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, substitution, exchange, reclassification, consolidation or merger, each share of such series of unconverted Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon conversion of one share of such series of Preferred Stock immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, substitution, exchange, reclassification, consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 4 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of the each series of Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 4 (including provisions

 

36


with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Applicable Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such series of Preferred Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Subsection 4.8 shall be construed as preventing the holders of shares of Preferred Stock from seeking any appraisal rights to which they are otherwise entitled under the General Corporation Law in connection with a merger triggering an adjustment hereunder, nor shall this Subsection 4.8 be deemed conclusive evidence of the fair value of the shares of Preferred Stock in any such appraisal proceeding.

4.9    Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of an Applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 4, the Corporation at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than ten (10) days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of Preferred Stock subject to such adjustment or readjustment a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which the applicable series of 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 of Preferred Stock (but in any event not later than ten (10) days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Applicable Conversion Price of each series of Preferred Stock 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 each series of Preferred Stock.

4.10    Notice of Record Date. In the event:

(a)    the Corporation shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon conversion of the any series of Preferred Stock) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other security; or

(b)    of any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Corporation, or any Deemed Liquidation Event; or

(c)    of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Corporation,

then, and in each such case, the Corporation will send or cause to be sent to the holders of the Preferred Stock a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the record date for such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities at the time issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other capital stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,

 

37


transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per share and character of such exchange applicable to the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock. Such notice shall be sent at least ten (10) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

5.    Mandatory Conversion.

5.1    Trigger Events. Upon the closing of the sale of shares of Common Stock to the public at a price of at least $44.8402 per share (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Common Stock), in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act resulting in at least $100,000,000 of proceeds, net of the underwriting discount and commissions, to the Corporation, (a “Qualified Public Offering”) (i) all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable, in accordance with the then effective Applicable Conversion Price and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Corporation. Upon the date and time, or the occurrence of an event, specified by vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, (i) all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the then effective Applicable Conversion Price and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Corporation. Upon the date and time, or the occurrence of an event, specified by vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock and Series B1-NV Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, (i) all outstanding shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock and Series B1-NV Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the then effective Applicable Conversion Price and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Corporation.

38


5.2    Procedural Requirements. All holders of record of shares of Preferred Stock being converted pursuant to Subsection 5.1 shall be sent written notice of the Mandatory Conversion Time and the place designated for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5. Such notice need not be sent in advance of the occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion Time. Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock being converted shall surrender his, her or its certificate or certificates for all such shares (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) to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice. If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. All rights with respect to the Preferred Stock converted pursuant to Subsection 5.1, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote (other than as a holder of Common Stock), will terminate at the Mandatory Conversion Time (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender the certificates at or prior to such time), except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) therefor, to receive the items provided for in the next sentence of this Subsection 5.2. As soon as practicable after the Mandatory Conversion Time and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with cash as provided in Subsection 4.2 in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and the payment of any declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of Preferred Stock converted. Such converted shares of Preferred Stock shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock accordingly.

6.    Optional Conversion of Series B1 Preferred Stock into Series B1-NV Preferred Stock and Series B1-NV Preferred Stock into Series B1 Preferred Stock.

The holders of the Series B1 Preferred Stock and Series B1-NV Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows:

6.1    Right to Convert.

6.1.1    Conversion Ratio; Accrued Dividends. Each share of Series B1 Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock. In addition, each share of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder thereof, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Series B1 Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in connection with any such

 

39


conversion of shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock into shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or conversion of shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock into shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock, any accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares so converted will inure to and carry forward with respect to the shares into which such shares are so converted.

6.2    Mechanics of Conversion.

6.2.1    Notice of Conversion. In order for a holder of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) into shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be), such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) (or, if such registered 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 transfer agent for such preferred stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of the Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) represented by such certificate or certificates and, if applicable, any event on which such conversion is contingent. Such notice shall state such holder’s name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business on the date of receipt by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) of such certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) and notice shall be the time of conversion (the “Preferred Conversion Time”), and the shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) issuable upon conversion of the shares represented by such certificate shall be deemed to be outstanding of record as of such date. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Preferred Conversion Time, issue and deliver to such holder of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be), or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into Series B1-NV Preferred Stock and Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be).

6.2.2    Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times when the Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1 -NV Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding

 

40


Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be); and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be), the Corporation shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation.

6.2.3    Effect of Conversion. All shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Preferred Conversion Time, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Series B1-NV Preferred Stock or Series B1 Preferred Stock (as the case may be) in exchange therefor. Any shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock so converted shall be deemed to be returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Series B1 Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock, as applicable, and may be reissued as shares of such series.

6.2.4    Taxes. The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Series B1- NV Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Series B1-NV Preferred Stock (as the case may be) pursuant to this Section 6.

7.    Redemption.

7.1    Except (i) as set forth in Subsection 2.8.2(b); (ii) as set forth in Subsection 7.2 and Subsection 7.3 below and (iii) in connection with a BHCA Tender, the Preferred Stock is not redeemable at the option of the holder thereof.

7.2    Series E Preferred Stock Redemption Right

7.2.1    At any time on or after February 12, 2035, but within ninety (90) days after the receipt by this corporation of a written request from a holder of Series E Preferred Stock that all of the then outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock held by such holder be redeemed (a “Series E Redemption Request”), the Corporation shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, within one hundred eighty days (180) (such payment date being referred to herein as the “Series E Redemption Date”) redeem the then outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock held by such holder by paying in cash therefor a sum per share equal to the Series E Original Issue Price for such shares of Series E Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, subdivisions, recapitalizations or the like) plus all declared but unpaid dividends on such shares (the “Series E Redemption Price”).

7.2.2    On or after the Series E Redemption Date, each holder of Series E Preferred Stock requesting redemption of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock on the Series E Redemption Date shall surrender to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing

 

41


such shares, and thereupon the applicable Series E Redemption Price of such shares shall be payable to the order of the Person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall be cancelled. In the event less than all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares

7.2.3    From and after each Series E Redemption Date, unless there shall have been a default in payment of the Series E Redemption Price, all rights of the holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock designated for redemption on such Series E Redemption Date as holders of Series E Preferred Stock (except the right to receive the applicable Series E Redemption Price without interest upon surrender of their certificate or certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of this corporation or be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. If the funds of this corporation legally available for redemption of shares of Series E Preferred Stock on such Series E Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Series E Redemption Date, those funds that are legally available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed in proportion to the aggregate Series E Redemption Price that each such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Subsection 7.2.1. The shares of Series E Preferred Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series E Preferred Stock, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares that the Corporation has become obliged to redeem on such Series E Redemption Date but that it has not redeemed.

7.2.4    Any amendment, modification, waiver or repeal of this Subsection 7.2 shall require the prior written approval of each Regulated Investor that holds shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

7.3.2    On or after the Series F Redemption Date, each holder of Series F Preferred Stock requesting redemption of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock on the Series F Redemption Date shall surrender to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing such shares, and thereupon the applicable Series F Redemption Price of such shares shall be

 

42


payable to the order of the Person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall be cancelled. In the event less than all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares

7.3.3    From and after each Series F Redemption Date, unless there shall have been a default in payment of the Series F Redemption Price, all rights of the holders of shares of Series F Preferred Stock designated for redemption on such Series F Redemption Date as holders of Series F Preferred Stock (except the right to receive the applicable Series F Redemption Price without interest upon surrender of their certificate or certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of this corporation or be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. If the funds of this corporation legally available for redemption of shares of Series F Preferred Stock on such Series F Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Series F Redemption Date, those funds that are legally available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed in proportion to the aggregate Series F Redemption Price that each such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Subsection 7.2.1. The shares of Series F Preferred Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series F Preferred Stock, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares that the Corporation has become obliged to redeem on such Series F Redemption Date but that it has not redeemed.

7.3.4    Any amendment, modification, waiver or repeal of this Subsection 7.2 shall require the prior written approval of each Regulated Investor that holds shares of Series F Preferred Stock.

7.4    The Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, repurchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire any shares of the Corporation’s capital stock, or take any other action, if, as a result, any Regulated Investor would own or control, or be deemed to own or control, collectively, greater than 14.99% of the total equity of the Corporation (as determined by such Regulated Investor under applicable law, including the Bank Holding Company Act); provided, however, that this provision shall not apply to (i) any repurchases or redemptions to the extent a Regulated Investor is permitted to participate on a pro rata basis such that, after such repurchase or redemption, such Regulated Investor’s ownership of the Corporation’s shares of capital stock would not exceed 14.99% of the total equity of the Corporation; (ii) any redemption pursuant to Section 7.2 and Section 7.3 of this Restated Certificate and (iii) any repurchase or redemption pursuant to the exercise of any BHCA Tender.

Any of the rights, powers, preferences and other terms of the Series F Preferred Stock set forth herein may be waived on behalf of all holders of Series F Preferred Stock by the affirmative written consent or vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series F-1 Preferred Stock; provided, however, that with respect to any waiver that significantly and adversely affects the rights or preferences of any shares of Series F Preferred Stock held by a Regulated Investor, as determined by such Regulated Investor under Regulation Y, all holders of shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote such shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock they may hold in respect of such waiver, and all such shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock shall be counted, both in the numerator and in the denominator, for purposes of determining whether the requisite consent has been obtained.

44


office address last shown on the records of the Corporation, or given by electronic communication in compliance with the provisions of the General Corporation Law, and shall be deemed sent upon such mailing or electronic transmission.

FIFTH: Subject to any additional vote required by this Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, in furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, repeal, alter, amend and rescind any or all of the Bylaws of the Corporation.

SIXTH: Subject to any additional vote required by this Certificate of Incorporation, the number of directors of the Corporation shall be determined in the manner set forth in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

SEVENTH: Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

EIGHTH: Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware, as the Bylaws of the Corporation may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

NINTH: To the fullest extent permitted by law, a director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the General Corporation Law or any other law of the State of Delaware is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article Ninth to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law as so amended.

Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article Ninth by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any director of the Corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to, such repeal or modification.

TENTH: The following indemnification provisions shall apply to the persons enumerated below.

1.    Right to Indemnification of Directors and Officers. The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person (an “Indemnified Person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and

 

45


loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in such Proceeding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 3 of this Article Tenth, the Corporation shall be required to indemnify an Indemnified Person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Indemnified Person only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnified Person was authorized in advance by the Board of Directors.

2.    Prepayment of Expenses of Directors and Officers. The Corporation shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnified Person in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that, to the extent required by law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Indemnified Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article Tenth or otherwise.

3.    Claims by Directors and Officers. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article Tenth is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim therefor by the Indemnified Person has been received by the Corporation, the Indemnified Person may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable law.

4.    Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation or, while an employee or agent of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such Proceeding. The ultimate determination of entitlement to indemnification of persons who are non-director or officer employees or agents shall be made in such manner as is determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Corporation shall not be required to indemnify a person in connection with a Proceeding initiated by such person if the Proceeding was not authorized in advance by the Board of Directors.

5.    Advancement of Expenses of Employees and Agents. The Corporation may pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an employee or agent in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

6.    Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person by this Article Tenth shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, these by-laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

46


7.    Other Indemnification. The Corporation’s obligation, if any, to indemnify any person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer or employee of another Corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, organization or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount such person may collect as indemnification from such other Corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, organization or other enterprise.

8.    Insurance. The Board of Directors may, to the full extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists, or may hereafter be amended from time to time, authorize an appropriate officer or officers to purchase and maintain at the Corporation’s expense insurance: (a) to indemnify the Corporation for any obligation which it incurs as a result of the indemnification of directors, officers and employees under the provisions of this Article Tenth; and (b) to indemnify or insure directors, officers and employees against liability in instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Corporation under the provisions of this Article Tenth.

9.    Amendment or Repeal. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article Tenth shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification. The rights provided hereunder shall inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person and such person’s heirs, executors and administrators.

ELEVENTH: The Corporation renounces, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any interest or expectancy of the Corporation in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, or in being informed about, any Excluded Opportunity, and hereby waives any claim that such Excluded Opportunity constituted a corporate opportunity that should have been presented to the Corporation or any of its affiliates. An “Excluded Opportunity” is any matter, transaction or interest that is presented to, or acquired, created or developed by, or which otherwise comes into the possession of, (i) any director of the Corporation who is not an employee of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, or (ii) any holder of Preferred Stock or any Affiliate, partner, member, director, stockholder, employee or agent of any such holder, other than someone who is an employee of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries (collectively, “Covered Persons”), unless such matter, transaction or interest is presented to, or acquired, created or developed by, or otherwise comes into the possession of, a Covered Person expressly in such Covered Person’s capacity as a director of the Corporation.

TWELFTH: Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.
