  D. Adjustments to the Conversion Basis.

 

  (i) Stock Splits and Combinations. Subject to the Protective Provisions (as defined below), if at any time after the Company first issues the Series A Preferred and while any of the shares of Series A Preferred remain outstanding, if the Company shall effect a subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, the Conversion Basis then in effect immediately before that subdivision or combination shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
     
 ) (ii) Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. At any time after the Company first issues the Series A Preferred and while any of the shares of Series A Preferred remain outstanding, if the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets), then and in each such event the holder of each share of Series A Preferred shall have the right thereafter to convert such shares into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustments as provided herein.
     
  (iii) Reorganization, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of Assets.

  E. Notices of Record Date. In the event of any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company, any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any other Company, entity, or person, or any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidating, or winding up of the Company, the Company shall mail to each holder of Series A Preferred at least 30 days prior :a the record date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up is expected to become effective, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as to when the holders of record of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up.

  G. Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. At such time as the Company increases its authorized capital resulting in a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock becoming available for the conversion of the Series A Preferred, the Company shall 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 A Preferred, a number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred.

5 Redemption

 

Subject to the applicable provisions of Delaware law, the Company, at the option of its directors, may at any time or from time to time redeem the whole or any part of the outstanding Series A Preferred. Upon redemption the Company shall pay for each share redeemed the amount of Two Dollars and Forty Cents ($2.40) per share, payable in cash, plus a premium to compensate the original purchaser(s) for the investment risk and cost of capital equal to the greater of (a) Two Dollars and Forty Cents ($2.40) per share, or (b) an amount per share equal to fifty percent (50%) of the market capitalization of the Company on the date of notice of such redemption divided by 2,000,000 (the "Redemption Premium"), the redemption amount and the Redemption Premium hereinafter being referred to as the "Redemption Price." Such redemption shall be on an all-or-nothing basis.

 

At least thirty (30) days previous notice by mail, postage prepaid, shall be given to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred to be redeemed, such notice to be addressed to each such shareholder at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company or given to such holder to the Company for the purpose of notice, or if no such address appears or is given, at the place where the principal office of the Company is located. Such notice shall state the date fixed for redemption and the redemption price, and shall call upon the holder to surrender to the Company on said date at the place designated in the notice such holder's certificate or certificates representing the shares to be redeemed. On or after the date fixed for redemption and stated in such notice, each holder of Series A Preferred called for redemption shall surrender the certificate evidencing such shares to the Company at the place designated in such notice and shall thereupon be entitled to receive payment of the redemption price. If less than all the shares represented by any such surrendered certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares. If such notice of redemption shall have been duly given, and if on the date fixed for redemption funds necessary for the redemption shall be available therefore, notwithstanding that the certificates evidencing any Series A Preferred called for redemption shall not have been surrendered, the dividends, if any, with respect to the shares so called for redemption shall forthwith after such date cease and determine, except only the right of the holders to receive the redemption price without interest upon surrender of their certificates therefore.

 

If, on or prior to any date fixed for redemption or Series A Preferred, the Company deposits, with any bank or trust cornpany as n. trust fund, the number of shares of Common Stock of a sum sufficient to redeem, on the date fixed for redemption thereof, the shares called for redemption, with irrevocable instructions and authority to the bank or trust company to give the notice of redemption thereof (or to complete the giving of such notice if theretofore commenced) and to pay, or deliver, on or after the date fixed for redemption or prior thereto, the redemption price of the shares to their respective holders upon the surrender of their share certificates, then from and after the date of the deposit (although prior to the date fixed for redemption), the shares so called shall be redeemed and any dividends on those shares shall cease to accrue after the date fixed for redemption. The deposit shall constitute full payment of the shares to their holders and from and after the date of the deposit the shares shall no longer be outstanding and the holders thereof shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares, and shall have no rights with respect thereto except the right to receive from the bank or trust company payment of the redemption price of the shares without interest, upon the surrender of their certificates therefore. Any interest accrued on any funds so deposited shall be the property of, and paid to, the Company. If the holders of Series A Preferred so called for redemption shah not, at the end of six years from the date fixed for redemption thereof, have claimed any funds so deposited, such bank or trust company shall thereupon pay over to the Company such unclaimed funds, and such bank or trust company shall thereafter be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof to such holders and such holders shall look only to the Company for payment of the redemption price.

 

6 Reissuanee

 

No share or shares of Series A Preferred acquired by the Company by reason of conversion or otherwise shall be reissued as Series A Preferred, and all such shares thereafter shall be returned to the status of undesignated and unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Company.
