SECTION 5.05. Proxy Statement; Shareholders’ Meeting. The Company agrees (i) to promptly prepare a proxy statement to be sent to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Shareholders’ Meeting (the “Proxy Statement”), (ii) to call and hold the Shareholders’ Meeting no later than January 31, 2014, in compliance with applicable Law, the Company’s amended and restated articles of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and the rules of the NYSE, and (iii) to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Requisite Shareholder Approval at the Shareholders’ Meeting.

SECTION 5.06. Investor Information. The Investors shall promptly provide the Company such information as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement and any Registration Statement.

SECTION 5.07. Agreement to Vote. (a) At the Shareholders’ Meeting, each Investor shall (i) appear at such Shareholders’ Meeting (in person or by proxy) or otherwise cause all Total Shares held by such Investor to be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum and (ii) vote (or cause to be voted) all Total Shares held by such Investor in favor of the Requisite Shareholder Approval.

(b) Each Investor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Company and any designee of the Company, each of them individually, as the sole and exclusive proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Investor, with full power of substitution, resubstitution, appointment and revocation, (i) to vote or act by written consent with respect to all of the Total Shares held by such Investor, (ii) in its name, place and stead, as such Investor’s true and lawful representative, attorney-in-fact and agent, to make, execute, sign, acknowledge, verify, swear to and deliver as shareholder any consent, certificate or other document relating to the Company that the law of the Republic of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Islands may permit or require in connection with any matter referred to in clause (i), (iii) to otherwise represent such Investor with respect to the Total Shares held by such Investor with all powers that such Investor would have if personally present at the Shareholders’ Meeting and (iv) to do and perform each and every act and thing as fully as such Investor might or could do as a holder of its respective Total Shares, in each case, in accordance with, and as necessary to effect the provisions of, Section 5.07(a).

(c) This proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of each Investor under Section 5.07(a), and its existence will not be deemed to relieve any Investor of its obligations under Section 5.07(a). Each Investor affirms that the foregoing proxy and power of attorney are each coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Each Investor shall take such further action and execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. For Voting Stock as to which any Investor is the beneficial but not the record owner, each Investor will cause any record owner of such Voting Stock to grant the Company a proxy to the same effect as that contained herein.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Investor may transfer its Common Stock purchased under this Agreement prior to the Common Stock Lock-Up Expiration only if such transfer is (i) pursuant to a private sale to a person whom such Investor reasonably believes is a QIB or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 thereunder (if available), (A) in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), if such transfer is conducted in accordance with all applicable securities Laws and (B) in the case of a transfer to a QIB pursuant to clause (i), the applicable transferee executes a transferee agreement for the benefit of the Company in the form of Annex IV hereto.

If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to such Investor within five trading days after (A) the occurrence of (i) or (ii) above or (B) a sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or pursuant to an effective Registration Statement after such Investor has provided the Company with

Registration Rights

SECTION 7.01. Shelf Registration Statement. (a) Following the Closing Date, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare, and not later than the 20th day following the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), shall file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities by the Investors from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Investors and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement and, thereafter, shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than the 90th day following the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). For the avoidance of doubt, such Shelf Registration Statement shall include all shares of Common Stock issued on the Closing Date and all Conversion Shares.

(b) So long as there continue to be Registrable Securities, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be lawfully delivered by the Investors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there may be periods of time in which the use of the Shelf Registration Statement may be restricted due to applicable Law, including the Securities Act. Upon the occurrence of any such restriction, the Company shall give prompt notice to the Investors of such restriction (using the electronic notice information provided pursuant to this Agreement), and the Investors shall not utilize the Shelf Registration Statement until notified by the Company that its use is again permitted.

(c) In the event an offering of shares of Registrable Securities involves one or more Underwriters, the Investors shall select the lead Underwriter and any additional Underwriters in connection with the offering from a list of investment banks reasonably agreed to between the Company and the Investors holding Registrable Securities.

(d) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the date on which the SEC declares the Shelf Registration Statement effective, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

SECTION 7.02. Demand Registration Rights. (a) So long as there continue to be Registrable Securities, if (i) a Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective prior to the Effectiveness Deadline in accordance with Section 7.01(a) or (ii) following the date on which a Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act in accordance with Section 7.01(a), such Shelf Registration Statement ceases for a continuous period in excess of 30 days to be effective, then the Investors shall be entitled to demand registration rights (each exercise of such rights, a “Demand Registration”) pursuant to which the Company agrees that upon written request of one or more Investors holding Registrable Securities (Investors providing such written request, the “Demand Investors”), it will as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and file a Registration Statement for an underwritten offering as to the number of Registrable Securities specified in such request, subject to the requirements of Sections 7.02(b) and 7.02(c); provided, however, that (A) the Company shall not be obligated to effect more than one Demand Registration in any six-month period and (B) the Registrable Securities of such Demand Investors (and any of such Investors’ permitted transferees holding Registrable Securities) for which a Demand Registration has been requested shall have a value (based on the average closing price per share of Common Stock for the ten trading days preceding the delivery of such Investors’ request for such Demand Registration) of not less than $15,000,000.

(b) If the Company is required to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act for the account of any Demand Investors pursuant to a Demand Registration in accordance with Section 7.02(a), then the Company shall give written notice of such filing to all Investors holding Registrable Securities hereunder that are not Demand Investors in connection with such filing as soon as practicable, and such notice shall offer such Investors (and such Investors’ permitted transferees holding Registrable Securities) the opportunity to register pursuant to such Registration Statement such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such Investors may request on the same terms and conditions as the applicable Demand Investors.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the lead Underwriter of an underwritten offering described in Section 7.02(a) or 7.02(b) delivers written notice to the Company that the number of shares of Registrable Securities that the applicable Investors (and such Investors’ permitted transferees holding Registrable Securities), including the applicable Demand Investors, intend to include in any Registration Statement is such that the success of any such offering would be materially and adversely affected, including the price at which the securities can be sold, then the number of shares of Common Stock to be included in the Registration Statement for the account of the applicable Investors (and such Investors’ permitted transferees holding Registrable Securities), including the applicable Demand Investors, shall be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the total amount of Registrable Securities to be included in any such Registration Statement to the amount recommended by such lead Underwriter.

SECTION 7.03. Registration Procedures. Subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02 hereof, in connection with the registration of the sale of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company will as promptly as reasonably practicable:

(c) use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities;

SECTION 7.05. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Investor that holds Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement, its respective partners, directors, members, officers and employees, and any Person who controls such Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing Persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, the Investor or any such Person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or arises out of or is based upon any

omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Investor, its partners, directors, members, officers or controlling Persons furnished by or on behalf of such Investor to the Company expressly for use in, the Registration Statement or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the Prospectus (and any amendments or supplements thereto), or in any “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) of the Company, which “issuer information” is required to be, or is, filed with the SEC, if any, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except, with respect to the Prospectus, insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Investor furnished by or on behalf of such Investor to the Company expressly for use in, the Prospectus or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) Each Investor that holds Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and employees and any Person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing Persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which, jointly or severally, the Company or any such Person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Investor furnished by or on behalf of such Investor to the Company in writing expressly for use in, the Registration Statement, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading; provided that the liability of each Investor under this Section 7.05(b) shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds received by such Investor pursuant to the relevant sale of Registrable Securities by such Investor.

(c) If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against a Person (an “indemnified party”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company or an Investor (as applicable, the “indemnifying party”) pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 7.05, such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing, and in reasonable detail to the extent known, of the Proceeding promptly after receipt by such indemnified party of notice of the Proceeding, and shall deliver to the indemnifying party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice or such documents shall not release the indemnifying party from any of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure. In case any such Proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, in its sole discretion, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, (x) the indemnified party shall fully cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection therewith (such cooperation to include the retention and (upon the indemnifying party’s request) the provision to the indemnifying party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Proceeding, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder) and (y) the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnified party may take any actions reasonably necessary to defend such Proceeding prior to the time that it receives a notice from the indemnifying party as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence. If the indemnifying party elects not to assume the defense of such Proceeding, it is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such Proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to one separate firm of local attorneys in each such jurisdiction) at any time for such indemnified party. In the event the indemnified party assumes the defense of the Proceeding, the indemnified party shall keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed of the progress of any such Proceeding. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of a Proceeding that an indemnified party may effect without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnifying party shall not, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of an indemnified party. The indemnifying

party shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of any settlement or judgment to which it consented in accordance with the terms of such settlement or judgment.

SECTION 7.06. Limitation on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or provided for under any applicable Law, no party hereto shall be liable to the other for any consequential, punitive, incidental, indirect or exemplary damages. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Company and each Investor acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Closing, their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all losses, damages, expenses, liabilities or claims relating to the subject matter of this Article VII shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VII.

SECTION 7.07. Registration Default. During any period that a Registration Default has occurred and remains uncured, the Company shall promptly pay on demand to each Investor that holds Registrable Securities a fee equal to $0.00125 per share of Registrable Securities for each day that a Registration Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 7.08. Survival. The agreements contained in this Article VII shall survive the Closing and the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of (a) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party and (iii) any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

(b) if to an Investor, at the address or facsimile number set forth below such Investor’s signature on the applicable signature page at the end of this Agreement, provided that notices to any Investor pursuant to Article VII may be made to the e-mail address set forth below such Investor’s signature on the applicable signature page at the end of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.02. Amendments; Waivers. (a) No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by each of the Company and the Investors, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(b) The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights nor shall any single or partial exercise by any party to this Agreement of any of its rights under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of such rights or any other rights under this Agreement. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise.

SECTION 8.03. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to “Articles”, “Sections” or “Annexes”, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of, or Annex to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The words “date hereof” shall refer to the date of this Agreement. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. All references to “$” or “dollars” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America. The terms defined in the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice versa. Any agreement or instrument defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement or instrument as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, all references to any statute, rule or regulation are to the statute, rule or regulation as amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time (and, in the case of statutes, include any rules and regulations promulgated under the statute) and to any section of any statute, rule or regulation include any successor to the section. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.04. Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all further acts and shall execute and deliver all other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. In connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement by the Company, an Investor’s loss in connection with such breach shall also include any fees of counsel reasonably incurred by such Investor in connection with such breach.

SECTION 8.05. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. Any purported assignment without such prior written consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 8.06. Governing Law. Except to the extent specifically required by the BCA, this Agreement and any claim, counterclaim or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement, directly or indirectly, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. The parties declare that it is their intention that this

Agreement shall be regarded as made under the laws of the State of New York and that the laws of the State of New York shall be applied in interpreting its provisions in all cases where legal interpretation shall be required, except to the extent the BCA is specifically required by such act to govern the interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.07. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

SECTION 8.08. Consent to Jurisdiction; Enforcement. Each of the parties (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from such court, (c) irrevocably and unconditionally waives (and agrees not to plead or claim) any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby in such court and (d) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby in any court other than any Federal court sitting in the State of New York.

SECTION 8.09. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties and/or their affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof. No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Platou is an intended third-party beneficiary of any and all representations and warranties of the Company or each Investor provided for in this Agreement or otherwise and any closing deliverables from the Company or any Investor provided for in this Agreement.

SECTION 8.10. Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable Law, such provision shall be deemed to be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforced in accordance with its terms to the maximum extent permitted by Law, so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

SECTION 8.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of

the parties and delivered to the other parties, with the same effect as if the signatures were upon the same instrument.

SECTION 8.12. Acknowledgment of Securities Laws. Each Investor hereby acknowledges that it is aware, and that it will advise its affiliates and representatives who are provided the material non-public information that is the subject of Section 5.04, that the United States securities laws prohibit any Person who has received from an issuer material, non-public information from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communication of such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.

(a) Subject to applicable ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Islands law and regulation, and the prior and superior right of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock ranking prior and superior to the shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, dividends and distributions in an amount per share of Preferred Stock (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the product of the Participation Factor multiplied by the aggregate per share dividends or distributions (as applicable) that are distributable to holders of Common Stock in connection with such dividend or distribution (other than dividends payable in shares of Common Stock, distributions of shares of Common Stock or subdivisions of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise)), in each case as and when declared by the Board of Directors since the Issue Date. Dividends described in this Section 3(a) shall be paid or distributed to holders of record of shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock on the payment or distribution date for the corresponding dividend or distribution on the Common Stock. Dividends on the Series B Participating Preferred Stock will not be cumulative.

(b) Holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividends or other distributions, whether payable in cash, securities or other property, other than dividends (if any) declared and payable on the Series B Participating Preferred Stock as specified in this Section 3 (subject to the other provisions of this Certificate of Designation). The term “dividend” as used in this Certificate of Designation includes any cash distribution made by the Corporation, regardless of whether such distribution constitutes a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c) The Board may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock entitled to receive a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which shall be the same as the record date for any corresponding dividend or the distribution on the Common Stock.

(d) Pursuant to and subject to the BCA, the Corporation may not lawfully declare or pay a dividend if the Corporation has reasonable grounds to believe that the Corporation is or would, after the declaration or payment of the dividend, be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, or that the realizable value of the Corporation’s assets would, after payment of the dividend, be less than the aggregate value of the Corporation’s liabilities, issued share capital and share premium accounts.

Section 4. Liquidation Rights.

(a) Voluntary or Involuntary Liquidation. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Corporation, the assets and funds of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) shall be distributed: (i) first, ratably among holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock up to an amount equal to $1.00 per share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction) and (ii) second, ratably among holders of Common Stock; provided that if holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock would receive a distribution per share that is greater than $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction) if all such assets and funds were distributed ratably among holders of Common Stock and Series B Participating Preferred Stock (based on each share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock being equal to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Participation Factor), such assets and funds shall be so ratably distributed among holders of Common Stock and Series B Participating Preferred Stock (such distribution preference, the “Liquidation Preference”).

(b) Residual Distributions. After payment of the full amount of the Liquidation Preference to all holders of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock, such holders will have no right or claim to any of the Corporation’s remaining assets in the event of the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

(c) Amalgamation, Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 4, a consolidation, amalgamation, merger, arrangement, reincorporation, de-registration or reconstruction involving the Corporation or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Corporation (other than in connection with the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up) will not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, voluntary or involuntary.

Section 5. Voting Rights. The holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:

(a) Each share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall entitle its holder to the number of votes equal to the Participation Factor.

(b) Except as otherwise herein provided or by the Articles of Incorporation or as otherwise required by the BCA, holders of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall vote with holders of the Common Stock together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the

shareholders of the Corporation, including the election of directors, and shall be considered one class for purposes of determining a quorum.

(c) Except as otherwise herein provided or by the Articles of Incorporation or as otherwise required by the BCA, the approval of holders of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, shall have no special voting rights and their consent, as a separate class, shall not be required for authorizing or taking any corporate action, or with respect to matters submitted to a shareholder vote; provided that, in addition to any other approval required under the Articles of Incorporation or by the BCA, (i) the amendment, alteration, supplement or repeal of any provision of this Certificate of Designation shall require (A) the affirmative vote or written consent, voting as a single separate class, given in person or by proxy, of holders of at least a majority of the shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock represented at a shareholder meeting where holders of record of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock are present either in person or by proxy, or (B) the affirmative written consent of holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock and (ii) if any amendment, alteration, supplement or repeal described in clause (i) disproportionately materially and adversely affects any right, privilege, preference or voting power of any holder of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock relative to the comparable rights, privileges, preferences or voting powers of any other holder of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock, the affirmative vote or written consent of such disproportionately affected holder shall be required to effect such amendment, alteration, supplement or repeal.

Section 6. Exchange.

(a) Mandatory Exchange. On the date that is 15 days following the receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Approval and the Authorized Shares Amendment each outstanding share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall automatically be exchanged into a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Participation Factor, as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 7 (such automatic exchange pursuant to this Section 6(a), the “Mandatory Exchange”). There shall be no premium payable upon Mandatory Exchange. Upon the Mandatory Exchange, the Corporation shall promptly mail to holders of record of Series B Participating Preferred Stock immediately prior to the Mandatory Exchange, first class, postage prepaid, at the address of such record holders as maintained by the Registrar, a notice of Mandatory Exchange. A copy of such notice shall also be filed with the Registrar.

(b) Effect of Exchange. On and after the date on which any shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock are exchanged for Common Stock, dividends on such shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall cease to accrue and all rights of holders of such shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock (including all rights to receive any accrued and unpaid dividends) will terminate except for the right to receive the whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange thereof (including the right, subject to Section 8, to receive the whole shares of Common Stock in exchange for any accrued and unpaid dividends). All shares of Common Stock issued upon exchange of the shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall, upon issuance by the Corporation, be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, preemptive right, resale right, subscription right, right of first refusal or similar right arising under law or contract.

(i) Record Holder as of Exchange Date. The exchanging holder entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon the exchange of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock as of the close of business on the date of the Mandatory Exchange notwithstanding that the share register of the Corporation shall then be closed or that certificates representing the shares of Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to such holder. In the event that a holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock to be issued upon the exchange of shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock should be registered or the manner in which such

shares should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares, and make such payment, in the name of the holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation. Prior to the close of business on the date on which shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock are exchanged for shares of Common Stock, shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of, or other securities issuable upon exchange of, any shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and holders of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall have no rights with respect to the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such exchange (including voting rights, rights to respond to tender offers for the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon exchange and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon exchange) by virtue of holding shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock.

(c) The issuance and delivery of certificates for Common Stock upon the exchange of shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the exchanging holder or recipient of shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock for such certificates or for any tax in respect of the issuance or delivery of such certificates or the securities represented thereby, and such certificate shall be issued or delivered in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by, holders of the shares of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock; provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the relevant shares of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificate unless or until the holder requesting such exchange shall have paid the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

Section 7. Adjustments. The Participation Factor shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(a) Stock Dividends; Stock Splits; Reverse Stock Splits; Reclassifications and Combinations. If at any time after the Issue Date, the Corporation shall (i) pay or make a dividend or other distribution to holders of its Common Stock solely in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide (by stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock or (iii) combine (by a reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then in each event, the Participation Factor shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the Participation Factor by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to such event. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the business day following the date fixed for determination of the holders entitled to such dividend or other distribution.

(b) Consolidation, Merger, etc. If the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the Common Stock is exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash or any other property, then in any such case each then outstanding share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into other stock or securities, cash or any other property, as applicable, in an amount per share equal to the product of (i) the Participation Factor and (ii) the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which a single share of Common Stock is exchanged or changed (assuming the holder of such share of Common Stock exercised any rights of election, if any, exercised by the holders of a majority (or plurality, if applicable) of the Common Stock and received per share the kind and amount of consideration equal to the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by a majority (or plurality, if applicable) of similarly electing (or non-electing, as applicable) holders).

(c) Rules of Calculation. Any adjustments to the Participation Factor under this Section 7 shall be calculated by the Corporation to the nearest one-ten-thousandth of a share of Common Stock. Except as explicitly provided herein, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding shall be calculated on the basis of the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, not including shares held in the treasury of the Corporation or held by any of the Corporation’s subsidiaries.

(d) De Minimis Adjustments. No adjustment to the Participation Factor under this Section 7 will be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent; provided that any such adjustment that is not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and provided further, that any such adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made will be made upon any Exchange Date.

(e) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Participation Factor under this Section 7, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7 shall cause an adjustment to such Participation Factor as so adjusted.

(f) Multiple Adjustments. For the avoidance of doubt, if an event occurs that would trigger an adjustment to the Participation Factor pursuant to this Section 7 under more than one subsection hereof, such event, to the extent fully taken into account in a single adjustment, shall not result in multiple adjustments hereunder; provided that if more than one subsection of this Section 7 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment.

(g) Abandoned Dividends or Distributions. If the Corporation shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, and shall thereafter (and before the dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered to stockholders) legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then no adjustment to the Participation Factor shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

(h) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Participation Factor is adjusted as provided under this Section 7, the Corporation shall promptly mail to holders of record of Series B Participating Preferred Stock (if any), first class, postage prepaid, at the address of such record holders as maintained by the Registrar, a notice of adjustment setting forth in reasonable detail the events giving rise to the adjustment and the calculation of adjustment. A copy of such notice shall also be filed with the Registrar.

Section 8. Cash Settlement of Accrued and Unpaid Dividends. In connection with any Mandatory Exchange pursuant to Section 6, the Corporation may in its sole discretion, on the date of the Mandatory Exchange elect to pay in cash an amount equal to all or a portion of any accrued and unpaid dividends as of such date on any share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock to be exchanged, and in such event such cash payment shall be credited against the accrued and unpaid dividends on such share.

Section 9. No Sinking Fund. The Series B Participating Preferred Stock will not be subject to any sinking fund, retirement fund or purchase fund or other similar provisions.

Section 10. Other Rights. Other than as provided for in this Certificate of Designation, The Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall not have any voting powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other special rights, or qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, other than as set forth herein or in the Bylaws or as provided by applicable law.

Section 11. Ranking. The Series B Participating Preferred Stock will, with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding-up, rank senior to the Common Stock and any Junior Stock and pari passu with any Parity Stock of the Corporation, including other series of Series B Participating Preferred Stock of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue from time to time in the future, and junior to all other series of Preferred Stock (other than Junior Stock and Parity Stock).

Section 12. Record Holders. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Corporation and the Transfer Agent for the Series B Participating Preferred Stock may deem and treat the record holder of any share of Series B Participating Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor the Transfer Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 13. Form. The Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall initially be issued substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designation. Each Series B Participating Preferred Stock certificate may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law or stock exchange rules; provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Corporation.

Section 14. Reissuance of Stock. Any shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever, including upon exchange of the Series B Participating Preferred Stock for Common Stock, shall not be reissued as such and shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series by the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation.

Section 15. No Fractional Shares. Fractional shares of Series B Participating Preferred Stock shall not be issued.

powers that the Transferee would have if personally present at the Shareholders’ Meeting and (iv) to do and perform each and every act and thing as fully as the Transferee might or could do as a holder of its respective Total Shares, in each case, in accordance with, and as necessary to effect the provisions of, Section 3(a).

(c) This proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of the Transferee under Section 3(a), and its existence will not be deemed to relieve the Transferee of its obligations under Section 3(a). The Transferee affirms that the foregoing proxy and power of attorney are each coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. The Transferee shall take such further action and execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy.

3. List of Investors.

The Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Placement Agent and the Company of any discrepancy between the purchase amounts set forth on any list delivered pursuant to this Section 3 and the purchase amounts received by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent is authorized, with the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld), to revise such list to reflect the actual purchase amounts received and the release of any purchase amounts pursuant to Section 4, provided that the Placement Agent shall be promptly notified of any such revision and provided a copy of such list, reflecting such revisions.

4. Withdrawal of Purchase Amounts.

(a) If the Escrow Agent shall receive a notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto (an “Offering Termination Notice”), from the Placement Agent, the Escrow Agent shall promptly after receipt of such Offering Termination Notice, send to each Investor listed on the list held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 3 whose total purchase amount shall not have been released pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 4, in the manner set forth in paragraph (d) of this Section 4, a check to the order of such Investor in the amount of the remaining purchase amount of such Investor held by the Escrow Agent as set forth on such list held by the Escrow Agent.

(a) It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that (i) the duties of the Escrow Agent, as herein specifically provided, are purely ministerial in nature; (ii) the Escrow Agent shall not have any duty to deposit or to invest the Escrowed Funds except as provided herein, (iii) the Escrow Agent shall not be responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for, or have any duty to inquire into, the sufficiency, correctness, genuineness or validity of the notices it receives hereunder, or the identity, authority or rights of any of the parties; (iv) the Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities in connection with the Escrowed Funds, other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement; (v) the Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature, written notice, request, waiver, consent, receipt, or any other paper or document reasonably believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine; (vi) the Escrow Agent shall incur no liability whatsoever except for such resulting from its willful misconduct or gross negligence, as long as the Escrow Agent has acted in good faith in the performance of its duties hereunder; and (vii) upon the Escrow Agent’s performance of its obligations under Section 4 hereof, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all liability, responsibility and obligation with respect to the Escrowed Funds or arising out of or under this Agreement as set forth in Section 6 hereof.

(b) The Escrow Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any legal action in connection with this Agreement or towards its enforcement or performance, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any action or legal proceeding, or to file any return, or pay or withhold any income or other tax payable with respect to any Escrowed Funds or the disbursement thereof, any payment of or in respect of which shall constitute a Loss under Section 6 below, and Placement Agent and the Company agree to provide to the Escrow Agent such information and documentation as the Escrow Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.

(c) In the event of any disagreement relating to the Escrowed Funds or the disbursement thereof resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the Escrowed Funds or in the event that the Escrow Agent is unable to determine what action it should take hereunder, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to retain the Escrowed Funds, but only to the extent of the Escrowed Funds in controversy so long as such disagreement shall continue, until the Escrow Agent shall have received (i) a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction regarding the proper disposition or (ii) a letter of instruction from the Company, acknowledged by the Placement Agent, directing delivery of the Escrowed Funds, in which event the Escrow Agent

-11-

shall disburse the Escrowed Funds in accordance with such order or letter. Any court order shall be accompanied by a legal opinion of counsel for the presenting party reasonably satisfactory to the Escrow Agent to the effect that the order is final and non-appealable. The Escrow Agent shall act on such court order and legal opinion without further inquiry. If a proceeding for such determination is not begun and diligently continued, the Escrow Agent may make an ex parte application or bring any other appropriate action for leave to deposit the Escrowed Funds in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York seeking such determination or such declaratory relief as the Escrow Agent shall deem reasonably necessary under the circumstances, and the parties each hereby irrevocably consent to the entering of an ex parte order pursuant to all applicable laws, rules and procedures of the State of New York and such court. The Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed by the Company, for all of the Escrow Agent’s reasonable costs and expenses of such action or proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

(d) The Escrow Agent does not have any interest in the Escrowed Funds deposited hereunder and is serving as escrow agent only and having only possession thereof. Any payments of income from the Escrowed Funds shall be subject to withholding regulations then in force with respect to United States federal or state income taxes. Section 5(c) and this Section 5(d) shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the resignation of the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 5(i) below.

(e) None of the provisions of this Agreement shall require the Escrow Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

(f) The Escrow Agent may consult with independent counsel and the advice or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion of counsel.

(g) The Escrow Agent shall have no obligation to, and shall not, invest and/or reinvest any cash held by the Escrow Agent in the absence of timely and specific written investment direction from the Company and the Placement Agent. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon; provided that the Escrow Agent has complied with written investment directions from the Company and the Placement Agent. The Escrow Agent shall have no liability in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the Company and the Placement Agent to provide timely written investment direction.

(h) The Escrow Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with due care.

(i) The Escrow Agent may at any time resign by giving ten (10) days written notice of resignation to the Company and the Placement Agent. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company and the Placement Agent shall promptly appoint a successor and, upon the acceptance by the successor of such appointment, release the resigning Escrow Agent from its

-12-

obligations hereunder by written instrument, a copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Escrow Agent and the successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within forty-five (45) days after the giving of such notice of resignation by the Escrow Agent, the resigning Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. The retiring Escrow Agent shall transmit all records pertaining to the Escrowed Funds and shall pay all Escrowed Funds to the successor Escrow Agent.

(j) Any partnership or other similar entity into which the Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any partnership, corporation or other similar entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Escrow Agent shall be a party, or any partnership, corporation or other similar entity succeeding to the business of the Escrow Agent shall be the successor of the Escrow Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

(k) No printed or other matter in any language (including, without limitation, any registration statement, any prospectus supplement relating to the Shares, notices, reports and promotional material) which mentions the Escrow Agent’s name or the rights, powers, or duties of the Escrow Agent shall be issued by the other parties hereto or on such parties’ behalf unless the Escrow Agent shall first have been provided a copy thereof. The Escrow Agent hereby consents to the use of its name and the reference to the escrow arrangement in any registration statement and in any prospectus supplement relating to the Shares.

6. Indemnification of Escrow Agent. The Company and the Placement Agent hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, claims, encumbrances, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (any or all of the foregoing herein referred to as a “Loss”) arising hereunder or under or with respect to the Escrowed Funds, except for a Loss resulting from the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct;

7. Compensation of Escrow Agent. At the time of execution of this Agreement the Company shall pay the Escrow Agent an administration fee of $15,000.00 for any and all services to be rendered by the Escrow Agent hereunder. The Company shall reimburse the Escrow Agent upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Escrow Agent in implementing any of the provisions of this Agreement, including reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its counsel, except any such expense, disbursement, or advance as may arise from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.
