Section 4.04. Regulatory Matters; Efforts.

(a) Each Purchaser and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, and to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the Transactions.

In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties hereto shall act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.

(iii) Each Purchaser and the Company shall promptly furnish the other with copies of written communications received by them or their Subsidiaries from, or delivered by any of the foregoing to, any Governmental Entity in respect of the Transactions (other than in respect of information filed or otherwise submitted confidentially to any such Governmental Entity).

(c) In the event that the purchase and sale to any Purchaser of the entire amount of the Purchased Common Shares designated to be purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.01(a) would require a filing under the HSR Act, then, in lieu of purchasing and selling such entire amount at the Closing, the Company shall issue and sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and acquire from the Company, the maximum number of shares of Company Common Stock that it may purchase without making a filing under the HSR Act and, in lieu of purchasing the remaining Purchased Common Shares that it otherwise would be required to purchase pursuant to Section 2.01(a) (such number of unpurchased shares of Company Common Stock, the “Shortfall Number” and, the aggregate purchase price for the Shortfall Number of Purchased Common Shares, the “Shortfall Amount”), such Purchaser shall purchase an additional number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the Shortfall Amount divided by $1,000.00 (such additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the “Substituted Preferred Stock”). Shares of the Substituted Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be the Purchased Preferred Shares for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon written notice to the Company by a holder of Substituted Preferred Stock that the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act have expired or been terminated, the Company shall reasonably promptly take all action required under the Certificate of Designations to convert the Substituted Preferred Stock into a number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the Shortfall Number (as such number may be adjusted under the terms of the Certificate of Designations) and, following such conversion, such shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be the Purchased Common Shares for all purposes under this Agreement.

Section 4.05. Proxy Statement. If the Closing occurs, the Company shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders no later than four months following the Closing Date (the “Meeting End Date”) to vote on proposals (collectively, the “Stockholder Proposal”) to approve the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock in connection with the conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares into Company Common Stock, for purposes of Section 312.03 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Board of Directors shall recommend to the Company’s stockholders that such stockholders approve the Stockholder Proposal, and shall not modify or withdraw such resolution. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall promptly prepare (and the Purchasers will reasonably cooperate with the Company to prepare) and file with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement, shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies for such stockholder approval and shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond to any comments of the SEC or its staff and to cause a definitive proxy statement related to such stockholders’ meeting to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders as promptly as practicable after clearance by the SEC. If at any time prior to such stockholders’ meeting there shall occur any event that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the proxy statement, the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders such an amendment or supplement. The Company agrees that each proxy statement referred to in this Section 4.05 shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and that none of the information included or incorporated by reference in any such proxy statement will, at the date it is filed with the SEC or mailed to the stockholders of the Company or at the time of the

stockholders’ meeting, or at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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, except for statements made in such proxy statement based exclusively on information supplied in writing by or on behalf of the Purchasers specifically and explicitly for inclusion or incorporation by reference therein. Each of the Purchasers and the Company agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it or on its behalf for use in the proxy statement if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders an amendment or supplement to correct such information to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations. The Company shall consult with the Purchasers prior to mailing any proxy statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and provide the Purchasers with a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon. The Company shall promptly notify the Purchasers upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any request from the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to any proxy statement and shall provide the Purchasers with copies of all correspondence between it and its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand. The directors’ recommendation described in this Section 4.05 shall be included in the proxy statement filed in connection with obtaining such stockholder approval. In the event that the approval of the Stockholder Proposal is not obtained at such special stockholders’ meeting, the Company shall include a proposal to approve (and, the Board of Directors shall recommend approval of) such Stockholder Proposal at a meeting of its stockholders (which may be an annual meeting) no less than once in each six-month period beginning on the Meeting End Date until such approval is obtained or made, and the other applicable provisions of this Section 4.05 shall apply with respect to seeking approval of the Stockholder Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, other than in the case of a willful and intentional material breach of this Section 4.05 by the Company, the parties hereby agree that the sole and exclusive remedy available to any Purchaser for the failure of the Company to obtain the approval of the Stockholder Proposal prior to the Meeting End Date (or with respect to any related action or failure to act) shall be the obligation set forth in the Series C Preferred Stock to make dividend payments commencing on the Meeting End Date.

Section 4.06. Listing. The Company shall, following the Closing Date, take all action reasonably necessary to effect the listing of the shares of the Purchased Common Shares and shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares on the NYSE, upon official notice of issuance. Following the initial listing of such shares, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing of such shares for so long as Company Common Stock continues to be listed on the NYSE.

Section 4.07. Reservation of Shares. From and after the Closing, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Company Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares, such number of shares of Company Common Stock as shall from time to time equal the number of shares sufficient to permit the conversion of the shares of Purchased Preferred Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with their respective terms. The Company covenants that all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares shall, upon such issue, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Company

Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares or otherwise to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall take all corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Company Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any authorization, consent, approval or other action by, and shall make any filing with any court or administrative body that may be required under, applicable state securities laws in connection with the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock upon conversion of the Purchased Preferred Shares.

Section 4.08. Recapitalization, Exchange, Etc. Affecting the Company’s Capital Stock. For so long as any Purchaser continues to hold any Purchased Securities, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, (a) issue, sell, redeem, or repurchase any shares of capital stock of the Company or of its Subsidiaries, (b) effect any recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split or like change in its capitalization or (c) undertake any other transaction that is not covered in the foregoing clauses (a) or (b), in each case, that reasonably would cause or result in a Purchaser, directly or indirectly, holding a number of shares of any class of capital stock of the Company that is entitled to vote generally in the election of directors representing an amount in excess of thirty percent (30%) of all shares of capital stock that are entitled to vote generally in the election of directors without promptly notifying all Purchasers at least thirty (30) days in advance of such transaction, to the extent practicable.

Section 4.09. Certain Tax Matters.

(a) At the Closing (and at any other time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Company), each Purchaser shall deliver to the Company a properly completed and duly executed IRS Form W-8EXP (or successor form thereto) and/or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or successor form thereto), as applicable, together with any other information necessary in order to establish an exemption from U.S. federal income tax withholding. Provided a Purchaser satisfies the requirements described in the previous sentence, and except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law, all payments of dividends made by the Company to such Purchaser in respect of the Purchased Securities shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of U.S. federal income Taxes. Each Purchaser shall (i) promptly notify the Company at any time such previously delivered IRS forms or information are no longer correct or valid and (ii) if any such previously delivered form expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, update any such form.

(b) The Company agrees to provide each Purchaser with such cooperation as such Purchaser may reasonably request in determining and documenting any eligibility for an exemption from taxation under Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided that the Company shall not be required to incur any material unreimbursed costs.

ARTICLE V

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 5.01. Demand Registration Rights.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.02, at any time and from time to time after the date of this Agreement, each Principal Purchaser may make one written demand (each Purchaser in such capacity, a “Requesting Holder”) to the Company requiring the Company to register, under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, all or part of the Requesting Holder’s Registrable Shares in an Underwritten Offering. All Registration Demands made pursuant to this Section 5.01 will specify the aggregate amount of shares of Company Common Stock to be registered, the intended methods of disposition thereof and the registration procedures to be undertaken by the Company in connection therewith (a “Demand Notice”). Subject to Section 5.02, promptly upon receipt of any such Demand Notice, the Company will file the applicable Registration Statement (or amend an existing registration statement to allow the resale by holders of Registrable Shares) as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 60 days thereafter. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Demand Notice, effect as reasonably promptly as practicable thereafter and in any event within 150 days of the filing of such Registration Statement the registration under the Securities Act (including appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with the applicable regulations promulgated under the Securities Act) of the shares of Company Common Stock that the Company has been so required to register, except that if the Company is a “well known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act as of the date of filing the applicable Registration Statement, the Company shall file or amend an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; provided, that any amendment of such automatic shelf registration statement to register all Purchased Securities for resale shall not constitute the use of a Registration Demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment that the filing of a Registration Statement would (i) require the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company that at the time is not, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, in the best interests of the Company to disclose and is not otherwise required to be disclosed or (ii) otherwise materially interfere with financing plans, acquisition activities or business activities of the Company ((i) and (ii) collectively, a “Disadvantageous Condition”), then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for the period until the Disadvantageous Condition is eliminated; provided, however, that (A) the Company may not defer such filing for a period of more than 60 days per notice and (B) the total number of days that any such deferrals may be in effect in any 12-month period shall not exceed 120 days in the aggregate. The Company shall give written notice of its determination to the Principal Purchasers to defer the filing and of the fact that the purpose for such deferral no longer exists, in each case, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the occurrence thereof.

(b) A Registration Statement shall not count as requested pursuant to a Registration Demand unless and until it has become effective and the Requesting Holder is able to register at least 50% of the Registrable Shares requested by such holders. In addition, a Registration Demand shall not count against the number of available Registration Demands if (i) after the applicable Registration Statement has become effective, such Registration Statement

or the related offer, sale or distribution of Registrable Shares thereunder becomes the subject of any stop order, injunction or other order or restriction imposed by the SEC or any other governmental agency or court for a reason solely attributable to the Company and such interference is not thereafter eliminated so as to permit the completion of the contemplated distribution of Registrable Shares, or (ii) if the conditions specified in the related underwriting agreement, if any, are not satisfied or waived for a reason solely attributable to the Company, and as a result of any such circumstances described in clause (i) or (ii), less than 50% of the Registrable Shares covered by the applicable Registration Statement are sold by the Requesting Holder pursuant thereto.

Section 5.02. Demand Registration Obligations and Procedures.

(a) If the Company receives a Registration Demand and the Company furnishes to the Requesting Holder making such demand a copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors certified by the secretary of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be materially adverse to the Company for a Registration Statement to be filed (or amended, as applicable) on or before the date such filing would otherwise be required hereunder, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the demand for such registration. The Company shall not be permitted to provide such notice more than twice in any 360-day period. If the Company receives a Registration Demand and the Company is then in the process of preparing to engage in a public offering, the Company shall inform the Requesting Holder of the Company’s intent to engage in a public offering and may require the Requesting Holder to withdraw such Registration Demand for a period of up to 90 days so that the Company may complete its public offering. In the event that the Company ceases to pursue such public offering, it shall promptly inform the Requesting Holder that submitted the Registration Demand, and such Requesting Holder shall be permitted to submit a new Registration Demand.

(b) Registrations under Section 5.01 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the SEC (i) as shall be selected by the Company and (ii) as shall permit the disposition of such shares in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition specified in the Demand Notice. If, in connection with any registration under Section 5.01 that is proposed by the Company to be on Form S-3 or any successor form, the managing underwriter, if any, shall advise the Company in writing that in its opinion the use of another permitted form is of material importance to the success of the offering, then such registration shall be on such other permitted form.

(c) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep any Registration Statement filed in response to a Registration Demand effective for as long as is necessary for the participating holders to dispose of all of the covered securities.

(d) The Company shall select the underwriters for each Underwritten Offering; provided that the managing underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Requesting Holder; provided, further, that any nationally recognized “bulge bracket” investment banking firm shall be deemed to be acceptable to the Requesting Holder. The Company and the Requesting Holder shall jointly determine the pricing of the Registrable Shares offered pursuant to any such Registration Statement in connection with a Registration Demand, the material terms

of the applicable underwriting agreement and determine the timing of any such registration and sale, subject to this Section 5.02. The Requesting Holder shall determine the applicable underwriting discount and other financial terms, and the holders of the Registrable Shares sold in the Underwritten Offering shall be solely responsible for all such discounts and fees payable to such underwriters in such Underwritten Offering.

Section 5.03. Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a) Subject to Sections 5.03(b) and 5.04, until the one-year anniversary of this Agreement, if the Company at any time proposes to register any Company Common Stock or effect a take-down from a shelf Registration Statement for its own account (a “Company Registration”) or for the account of any Purchaser possessing demand rights (including in connection with a Registration Demand) (a “Stockholder Registration”) under the Securities Act by registration on Form S-1 or Form S-3 or any successor or similar form(s) (except registrations on any such form or similar form(s) for registration of securities in connection with an employee benefit plan, a dividend reinvestment plan or a merger or consolidation, or incidental to an issuance of securities under Rule 144A under the Securities Act), it will at such time give written notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to the holders of Registrable Shares of its intention to do so, including the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, and, if known, the number of shares of Company Common Stock that are proposed to be included in such Registration Statement or prospectus supplement, as the case may be, and of the rights under this Section 5.03. Upon the written request of a holder of Registrable Shares (which request shall specify the maximum number of Registrable Shares intended to be disposed of by such holder and such other information as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such shares of Company Common Stock), made as promptly as practicable and in any event within 15 Business Days after the receipt of any such notice (five Business Days if the Company states in such written notice or gives telephonic notice to such Purchaser, with written confirmation to follow promptly thereafter, stating that (i) such registration will be on Form S-3 and (ii) such shorter period of time is required because of a planned filing date), the Company, subject to Section 5.04, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been so requested to register by the holders of Registrable Shares; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration or, if applicable, filing of a prospectus supplement with respect to such offering, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company shall give written notice of such determination to the holders of Registrable Shares requesting registration under this Section 5.03 (which such holders will maintain in strict confidence) and (A) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration (but not from any obligation of the Company to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), and (B) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Shares, for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities.

(b) The piggyback registration rights in Section 5.03(a) shall not be available in respect of any Company Registration in which a stated use of proceeds in such offering is the financing by the Company of the acquisition of a business or assets announced prior to the date

of the Company Registration; provided, however that if any Company officer or member of the Board of Directors or stockholder holding 1% or more of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock is participating in such offering, the Company shall to the extent reasonably practicable allow holders of Registrable Shares to participate on substantially similar terms.

(c) Each holder of Registrable Shares shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of such Registrable Shares in any Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 5.03 at any time prior to the launch of the roadshow with respect to such offering (or if there is no roadshow, the filing of the final preliminary prospectus with respect to such offering) by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw.

Section 5.04. Underwriters’ Cutback.

(a) In the case of a Company Registration, if the managing underwriter of any Underwritten Offering shall inform the Company by letter of its belief that the number of Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration pursuant to Section 5.03, when added to the number of other securities to be offered in such registration by the Company, would adversely affect such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration, to the extent of the total number of securities which the Company is so advised can be sold in (or during the time of) such offering without so adversely affecting such offering (the “Section 5.04(a) Sale Number”), securities in the following priority:

(i) First, all Company Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Company Common Stock that the Company proposes to register for its own account;

(ii) Second, to the extent that the number of securities to be included in the registration pursuant to Section 5.04(a)(i) is less than the Section 5.04(a) Sale Number, any shares of Company Common Stock required to be included pursuant to an Existing Registration Rights Agreement; and

(iii) Third, to the extent that the number of securities to be included in the registration pursuant to Sections 5.04(a)(i) and (ii) is less than the Section 5.04(a) Sale Number, the Registrable Shares requested to be included by holders exercising piggyback rights pursuant to Section 5.03; the securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 5.04(a)(iii) shall be included on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Shares subject to registration rights owned by each holder requesting inclusion in relation to the number of Registrable Shares then owned by all holders requesting inclusion.

(b) In the case of a Stockholder Registration, if the managing underwriter of any Underwritten Offering shall inform the Company by letter of its belief that the number of shares of Company Common Stock and Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration would materially adversely affect such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration, to the extent of the total number of securities which the Company is so advised can be sold in (or during the time of) such offering without so materially adversely affecting such offering (the “Section 5.04(b) Sale Number”), securities in the following priority:

(i) First, the Registrable Shares requested to be included by the Persons exercising demand rights in connection with such Stockholder Registration;

(ii) Second, to the extent that the number of securities to be included in the registration pursuant to Section 5.04(b)(i) is less than the Section 5.04(b) Sale Number, any shares of Company Common Stock required to be included pursuant to an Existing Registration Rights Agreement; and

(iii) Third, to the extent that the number of securities to be included in the registration pursuant to Sections 5.04(b)(i) and (ii) is less than the Section 5.04(b) Sale Number, the Registrable Shares requested to be included by holders exercising piggyback rights pursuant to Section 5.03; the securities requested to be included pursuant to this Section 5.04(b)(iii) shall be included on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Shares subject to registration rights owned by each holder requesting inclusion in relation to the number of Registrable Shares then owned by all holders requesting inclusion.

Section 5.05. Participation in Underwritten and Shelf Offerings.

(a) Any participation by a holder of Registrable Shares in a registration by the Company shall be in accordance with the plan of distribution of the Company. Except as provided in Section 5.02(d), in all Underwritten Offerings, the Company shall have sole discretion to select the underwriters.

(b) In connection with any proposed registered offering of securities of the Company in which any holder of Registrable Shares has the right to include Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 5.03 or 5.06, such holder agrees (i) to supply any information reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement and/or any other documents relating to such registered offering, (ii) to execute and deliver, or cause the execution or delivery of, and to perform under, or cause the performance under, any agreements and instruments being executed by all holders on substantially the same terms reasonably requested by the Company to effectuate such registered offering, including underwriting agreements, custody agreements, lock-ups, “hold back” agreements pursuant to which such holder agrees not to sell or purchase any securities of the Company for the same period of time following the registered offering as is agreed to by the other participating holders (subject to carve-outs for actions taken by any Person excepted from the definition of Affiliate pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of such definition and for index-based swaps), powers of attorney (subject to applicable law), opinions of counsel and questionnaires, in each case, in customary form, scope and substance. If the Company requests that the participating holders of Registrable Shares take any of the actions referred to in this Section 5.05(b), such holders shall take such action promptly but in any event within three Business Days following the date of such request. The Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other actions as are reasonably required in order to effect a registered offering and facilitate the disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Article V, including (A) to furnish customary opinions of counsel representing the Company addressed to the underwriters, if any, in customary form, scope and substance, (B) to provide a comfort letter

from the independent auditors of the Company addressed to the underwriters, if any, in customary form, scope and substance, and (C) if necessary and requested by the Requesting Holder, the reasonable participation of Company management in roadshows in a manner and for a duration customary for offerings of such size.

Section 5.06. Shelf Registration.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.06, the Company agrees to file with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in any event within 30 days) a shelf Registration Statement on Form S-1 or S-3 if available for use by the Company, or such other form under the Securities Act then available to the Company providing for the resale of any Registrable Shares pursuant to Rule 415 from time to time by the Purchasers (a “Shelf Registration Statement”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable after the initial filing thereof (but in any event within 90 days), except that if the Company is a “well known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act as of the date of filing the applicable Registration Statement, the Company shall file or amend an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act. Any Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for the resale from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available (excluding Underwritten Offerings), by the holders of any and all Registrable Shares. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep any Shelf Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (i) one year from the date of effectiveness or (ii) such time as there are no Registrable Shares remaining.

(b) During (i) any Scheduled Black-Out Period, (ii) upon receipt of written notice from the Company that the Board has determined, in good faith, that permitting continuing offers and sales of Registrable Shares registered under a Shelf Registration Statement would result in a Disadvantageous Condition (provided that (x) the Company may not suspend use of the applicable Registration Statement pursuant to this clause (ii) for a period of more than 60 days per notice and (y) the total number of days that any such suspensions pursuant to this clause (ii) may be in effect in any 12-month period shall not exceed 120 days in the aggregate), (iii) the period following receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement contains or may contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (excluding for purposes of this clause (iii) any event or circumstances to which clause (ii) could be applicable) or (iv) the suspension of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement by the SEC, each holder of Registrable Shares shall discontinue its disposition thereof pursuant to the applicable Shelf Registration Statement until the termination of such Scheduled Black-Out Period or until such holder has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus or prospectus supplement, or until such holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement may be resumed. If so directed by the Company, in the case of a suspension pursuant to clause (iii), each holder of Registrable Shares shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in their possession, of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Shares current at the time of receipt of such suspension notice. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cure any untrue statement of a material fact or material omission in order to permit the resumption of dispositions at the earliest practicable date following a suspension in accordance with clause (iii).

Section 5.07. Copies of Registration Statements. The Company will, if requested, prior to filing any Registration Statement pursuant to this Article V or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to the holders of Registrable Shares participating in the offering related to such Registration Statement, and thereafter furnish to such holders, such number of copies of such Registration Statement, amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein) and the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) as such holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Shares by such holders.

Section 5.08. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Shares to the public without registration, while a public market exists for the Company Common Stock, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times while Registrable Shares are outstanding; and

(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements).

Section 5.09. Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with a Company Registration or any Stockholder Registration, provided that each holder of Registrable Shares participating in an offering shall pay all applicable underwriting fees, discounts and similar charges.

Section 5.10. Certain Non-U.S. Securities Law Matters. To the extent requested by a Purchaser that is a Canadian Person, the Company will cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to such Purchaser a certificate of an officer of the Company providing details as to the beneficial ownership, to the knowledge of the Company, of the Company’s securities by residents of Canada based on inquiries consistent with Rule 14a-13 of the Exchange Act, with reference to the ownership measures set out in the Company’s representation set forth in Section 3.01(w).

The Company and any Purchaser may make amendments or modifications to the respective rights and obligations of such Purchaser and of the Company as though this Agreement were a separate agreement of the Company and such Purchaser without effect on the rights and obligations of each other Purchaser with respect to the Company, on one hand, and of the Company to each other Purchaser, on the other hand. No amendment or modification of this Agreement by the Company and any Purchaser shall require notice to be given to any other Purchaser.

Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

Section 6.05. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 6.06. Public Announcements. No press release, public announcement or other announcement related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein shall be issued or made by any Purchaser or their respective Affiliates without the prior written approval of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless required by law (in the reasonable opinion of counsel) in which case the Company shall have the right to review such press release, announcement or communication prior to issuance, distribution or publication. The Company may issue one or more press releases and may provide information about the subject matter of this Agreement in connection with fund raising, debt issuances, or marketing, informational or reporting activities; provided, that each Purchaser shall have the right to consent to the use of its name and description of its participation in the Transactions (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, further, that it is agreed that such consent shall not be required with respect to any information included in the press release announcing the Transactions, which was approved by such Purchaser.

Section 6.07. Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each party hereto shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the Closing, upon the receipt from a Purchaser of appropriate invoices, the Company shall within 10 Business Days reimburse such Purchaser for up to $150,000 of out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by such Purchaser for engaging legal counsel and other professional advisors and agents in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, by wire transfer of same-day funds to an account or accounts designated by such Purchaser.

Section 6.08. Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Closing, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, each person who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of the Exchange Act, and each of the respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates of the foregoing in their respective capacities as such, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, proceedings, costs, losses, damages, liabilities, Taxes judgments, amounts paid in settlement (subject to Section 6.08(c)) and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) (collectively, “Loss”) arising out of or resulting from (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by the Company in this Agreement, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Shares (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary or summary prospectus or any of the documents incorporated therein, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided, however, that such indemnity shall not apply to that portion of such Losses caused by, or arising out of, any untrue statement, or alleged untrue statement or any such omission or alleged omission, to the extent such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of a holder of Registrable Shares expressly for use therein, and (iii) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule, regulation or law applicable to the Company and relating to action required of or inaction by the Company in connection with any registration or offering of securities. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission (x) made in any preliminary prospectus if (A) such selling stockholder failed to deliver or cause to be delivered a copy of the prospectus to the Person asserting such Loss after the Company has furnished such selling Purchaser with a sufficient number of copies of the same and (B) the prospectus completely corrected in a timely manner such untrue statement or omission, or (y) in the prospectus, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is completely corrected in an amendment or supplement to the prospectus and the selling stockholder thereafter fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented prior to or concurrently with the sale of the securities to the Person asserting such Loss after the Company had furnished such selling Purchaser with a sufficient number of copies of the same.

(b) From and after the Closing, each Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, severally and not jointly, the Company, each person who controls the Company within the meaning of the Exchange Act, and each of the respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates of the foregoing in their respective capacities as such, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by such Purchaser in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by such Purchaser in this Agreement or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material

fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to Registrable Shares (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary or summary prospectus or any documents incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, only to the extent such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Shares, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. Each such Purchaser shall also indemnify, severally and not jointly, underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Company, its officers and directors and each Person (if any) that controls the Company, if requested. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, each Purchaser shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission (x) made in any preliminary prospectus if the prospectus completely corrected in a timely manner such untrue statement or omission or (y) in the prospectus, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is completely corrected in an amendment or supplement to the prospectus. In no event shall the liability of any Purchaser hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Purchaser under the sale of Registrable Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The Company and the selling stockholders shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above with respect to information so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any prospectus or Registration Statement.

(c) A party obligated to provide indemnification under this Section 6.08 (an “Indemnifying Party”) shall reimburse the indemnified parties of the other party (the “Indemnified Parties”) for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any action, suit, claim or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 6.08(a) or (b), whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party thereto; provided that such reimbursement shall be repaid to the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnified Party is not ultimately entitled to indemnity hereunder; and provided further that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent of the Indemnifying Party’s right under Section 6.08(d) to assume a defense pursuant thereto. If an Indemnified Party makes a claim under this Section 6.08(c) for payment or reimbursement of expenses, such expenses shall be paid or reimbursed promptly upon receipt of appropriate documentation relating thereto even if the Indemnifying Party reserves the right to dispute whether this Agreement requires the payment or reimbursement of such expenses, but subject to the provisos of the preceding sentence.

(d) An Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of

its obligations under this Section 6.08 unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by the failure of such Indemnified Party to so notify such party. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to hire, at its own expense, separate counsel and participate in the defense thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and conduct the defense, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party determines otherwise, (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Party (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claims, then, in each case, the Indemnified Party may assume responsibility for conducting the defense (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with assuming and conducting the defense). No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold its consent. The Indemnifying Party further agrees that it will not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification could reasonably be expected to be available hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action, suit, claim or proceeding) unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding. If written notice of a bona fide claim for indemnification under Section 6.08 has been given in respect of any breach of the representations or warranties made by a party in this Agreement prior to the expiration of the applicable representation or warranty, then the obligation to indemnify in respect of such breach shall survive as to such claim, until such claim has been finally resolved.

(e) In no event shall any Indemnified Party have any liability for (i) Losses computed on a multiple of earnings, book value or similar basis, (ii) special, speculative, indirect or consequential Loss or lost profits to the extent not the direct and reasonably foreseeable consequence of the relevant breach, or (iii) punitive damages.

(f) In no event shall the Company have any liability to any Purchaser (or to any person who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of the Exchange Act, or to each of the respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates of the foregoing) for any Losses in an amount greater than the purchase price for such Purchaser’s Purchased Securities as set forth on the signature page hereto.

(g) The obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 6.08 shall survive the transfer of the Purchased Securities. The agreements contained in this Section 6.08 shall be in addition to any other rights of the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party or others, at common law or otherwise. The Indemnifying Party consents to personal jurisdiction, service and venue in any court in the continental United States in which any claim subject to this Agreement is brought against any Indemnified Party.

Section 6.09. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company’s successors and assigns and each Purchaser’s successors and assigns, and no other person; provided, that each Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to one or more of its wholly owned Subsidiaries, but no such assignment shall relieve such Purchaser of its obligations hereunder.

Section 6.10. Arbitration.

(a) Any and all disputes which cannot be settled amicably, including any ancillary claims of any party, arising out of, relating to or in connection with the validity, negotiation, execution, interpretation, performance or non-performance of this Agreement or the Transactions (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted in New York in accordance with the then-existing Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”). The arbitral panel shall consist of three arbitrators. The Purchasers party to such arbitration and the Company shall each nominate one arbitrator and deliver written notification of such nomination to the other parties to the arbitration and to the ICC within 30 days after delivery of the initial request for arbitration. In the event the Company or such Purchaser, as the case may be, fails to so nominate an arbitrator, upon request of the other party, such arbitrator shall instead be appointed by the ICC within 30 days of receiving such request. The first two appointed arbitrators shall nominate the third arbitrator, who shall serve as chairman of the arbitral panel, and notify the parties to the arbitration and the ICC in writing of such nomination within 30 days of their appointment. The third arbitrator shall be of a different nationality from either the Company or such Purchaser. If the first two appointed arbitrators fail to nominate a third arbitrator or notify the parties to the arbitration and the ICC of that nomination within 30 days, then, upon request of any party, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC within 30 days of receiving such request. In the event of a vacancy, a replacement arbitrator shall be chosen according to the methods specified in this Section 6.10(a). Each arbitrator shall be licensed to practice law in New York. The arbitrators shall conduct the proceedings in the English language. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.10(a), the parties may bring an action or special proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of compelling a party to arbitrate, seeking temporary or preliminary relief in aid of an arbitration hereunder, and/or enforcing an arbitration award and, for the purposes of this sentence, the party against which such action or proceeding is brought (a “Covered Person”) (i) expressly consents to the application of paragraph (c) of this Section 6.10 to any such action or proceeding and (ii) agrees that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and that remedies at law would be inadequate. Until the date that such Purchaser holds less than 2.5% of the outstanding Company Common Stock on an as-converted, fully diluted basis, each Purchaser that is not an entity incorporated or organized in the United States agrees that it will designate and continuously maintain for such period an agent in the State of New York (which may be a U.S.-based Affiliate or office of such Purchaser) on behalf of itself and its properties upon whom process may be served (each, a “Purchaser Authorized Agent”) in any such action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions which may be instituted in the United States District Court for the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇

of New York or the courts of the State of New York by any other party hereto. Each such Purchaser shall designate a Purchaser Authorized Agent at or prior to Closing, and, in the event that for any reason the agent so designated shall cease to serve as agent for such Purchaser to receive service of process in the State of New York on its behalf, such Purchaser shall promptly appoint a successor and advise the Company thereof in writing (and such replacement agent shall be the Purchaser Authorized Agent). Service of process upon the Purchaser Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to a Purchaser shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon such Purchaser.

(c) (i) THE COVERED PERSON HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK (AND OF THE APPROPRIATE APPELLATE COURTS THEREFROM) FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION 6.10, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the fora designated by this Section 6.10(c) have a reasonable relation to this Agreement, and to the parties’ relationship with one another.

(ii) The parties hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such ancillary suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referred to in Section 6.10(c)(i) and such parties agree not to plead or claim the same. Other than MDC Capital 2010 Trust, each Covered Person further waives, to the extent applicable, any and all immunity (including sovereign immunity) from suit, execution, attachment or other legal process relating to this Agreement or the Transactions.

(iii) MDC Capital 2010 Trust acknowledges that it is a commercial entity separate from (and with an identity separate from) its direct and indirect shareholders, is capable of suing and being sued, and is entering into the Transactions as private law commercial transactions that shall not be deemed as being entered into in the exercise of any public function.

Section 6.11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect provided that the economic and legal substance of, any of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. In the event of any such determination, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement to fulfill as closely as possible the original intent and purpose hereof. To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereby to the same extent waive any provision of law that renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 6.12. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and that the parties will be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity.

Section 6.13. Headings. The headings of Articles and Sections contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and are not part of this Agreement.

Section 6.14. Independent Nature of Purchasers. The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase the Purchased Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the Transactions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the Certificate of Designations, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

EXECUTION VERSION

Exhibit A

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OF

SERIES C CONVERTIBLE PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK OF

XPO LOGISTICS, INC.

Pursuant to Section 151 of the

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

XPO Logistics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), certifies that pursuant to the authority contained in its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”), on May 28, 2015, duly approved and adopted the following resolution, which resolution remains in full force and effect on the date hereof:

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors does hereby designate, create, authorize and provide for the issue of a series of the Company’s preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Liquidation Preference”), which shall be designated as Series C Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), consisting of 562,525 shares, no shares of which have heretofore been issued by the Company, having the following powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof:

Certain defined terms used in this Certificate of Designation have the meanings assigned thereto in Section 13.

Section 1. Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, (a) senior to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), whether now outstanding or hereafter issued, and to each other class or series of stock of the Company (including any series of preferred stock established after June 3, 2015 (the “Issue Date”) by the Board of Directors) the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to, or pari passu, with the Series C Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company (collectively referred to as “Junior Stock”); (b) pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock and each other class or series of stock of the Company (including any series of preferred stock established after the Issue Date by the Board of Directors) the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks pari passu with the Series C Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company (collectively referred to as “Parity Stock”); and (c) junior to each other class or series of stock of the Company (including any series of preferred stock established after the Issue Date by the Board of Directors) the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and

distribution of assets upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company (collectively referred to as “Senior Stock”). The Company’s ability to issue Capital Stock that ranks pari passu with or senior to the Series C Preferred Stock shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.

Section 2. Dividends. (a) Prior to the Meeting End Date. Prior to the Meeting End Date, Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to participate equally and ratably with the holders of shares of Common Stock in all dividends on the shares of Common Stock as if immediately prior to each record date for the Common Stock, shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding were converted into shares of Common Stock. Dividends payable pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be payable on the same date that such dividends are payable to holders of shares of Common Stock, and no dividends shall be payable to holders of shares of Common Stock unless dividends contemplated by this Section 2(a) are also paid at the same time in respect of the Series C Preferred Stock. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record of shares of Series C Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock records of the Company at the close of business on the same day as the record date for the payment of dividends to the holders of shares of Common Stock.

(b) Following the Meeting End Date. Commencing on and following the Meeting End Date, Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cumulative dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock payable quarterly, which dividend shall be declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, out of the assets of the Company legally available therefor, and thereafter, if so declared, be payable on the 15th calendar day (or the following Business Day if the 15th is not a Business Day) of January, April, July and October of each year (each such date being referred to herein as a “Dividend Payment Date”) at the rate per annum of 7.5% per share on the Liquidation Preference; provided that, in the event that on any Dividend Payment Date, the Company is not permitted to declare or pay such dividend or incur such liability either (x) as a matter of law or (y) under the terms of the Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit Agreement dated as of April 1, 2014, among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Senior Funding, Inc., as agent, and the other parties thereto, as amended from time to time (the “Company Credit Agreement”), such dividend (a “Deferred Dividend”) shall not be declared by the Board of Directors, shall not be paid or payable on such Dividend Payment Date and no liability shall be incurred in respect thereof, and instead, such Deferred Dividend shall be declared, become payable and be paid and the liability in respect thereof be incurred on the first succeeding Dividend Payment Date on which the Company is not prohibited from declaring, paying and incurring the liability in respect of such Deferred Dividend (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Deferred Dividend shall be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any dividend which would ordinarily be payable on such succeeding Dividend Payment Date). The amount of dividends payable for any other period that is shorter or longer than a full quarterly dividend period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Commencing on and following the Meeting End Date, in the event that dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock in any dividend period with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock, then a dividend shall be payable in respect of each share of Series C Preferred Stock for such period in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount otherwise payable in respect of

such share of Series C Preferred Stock in accordance with the foregoing paragraph and (ii) the product of (A) the aggregate dividends payable per share of Common Stock in such dividend period times (B) the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible.

For purposes of this Section 2(b), a dividend period with respect to a Dividend Payment Date is the period commencing on the preceding Dividend Payment Date (or, if there is no preceding Dividend Payment Date, the Meeting End Date) and ending on the day immediately prior to the next Dividend Payment Date. Dividends payable on a Dividend Payment Date shall be payable to Holders of record on the later of (i) the close of business on the first calendar day (or the following Business Day if such first calendar day is not a Business Day) of the calendar month in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date falls and (ii) the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof declares the dividend payable (each, a “Dividend Record Date”).

(c) Payment of Dividends. The Company may make each dividend payment on the Series C Preferred Stock either (i) in cash (or, if applicable, in the same form as such dividend is paid to holders of Common Stock) or (ii) at the Company’s option, by the issuance of additional shares of Series C Preferred Stock (including fractional shares) having an aggregate Liquidation Preference equal to the amount of the dividend to be paid (or, in the case of a non-cash distribution, having an aggregate Liquidation Preference equal to the fair market value of such dividend (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution)). Each fractional share of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding shall be entitled to a ratably proportionate amount of all dividends accumulating with respect to each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 2, and all such dividends with respect to such outstanding fractional shares shall accumulate (whether or not declared) and shall be payable in the same manner and at such times as provided for in Section 2 with respect to dividends on each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest shall be payable in respect of any dividends or payment that may be in arrears.

(d) Payment Restrictions. No dividends or other distributions (other than a dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Junior Stock) and other than cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) may be declared, made or paid, or set apart for payment upon, any Parity Stock or Junior Stock, nor may any Parity Stock or Junior Stock be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any money paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any Parity Stock or Junior Stock) by or on behalf of the Company (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Junior Stock)), unless all accrued and unpaid dividends shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid (in cash or in kind), or are declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, on the Series C Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock for all dividend payment periods terminating on or prior to the date of such declaration, payment, redemption, purchase or acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if full dividends have not been paid on the Series C Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on the Series C Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock so long as the dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that the aggregate amounts of

dividends declared per share on, and the amounts of such dividends declared in cash or in kind, as applicable, per share on, the Series C Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock will in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued and unpaid dividends per share on the shares of Series C Preferred Stock and such other Parity Stock bear to each other.

Section 3. Liquidation Preference. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, each Holder shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders of the Company, before any distribution of assets is made on the Common Stock or any other Junior Stock, an amount equal to the greater of (i) the aggregate Liquidation Preference attributable to shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such Holder plus an amount equal to the sum of all accrued and unpaid cumulative dividends, and (ii) the product of (x) the amount per share that would have been payable upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up to the holders of shares of Common Stock or such other class or series of securities into which the Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible (assuming the conversion of each share of Series C Preferred Stock), multiplied by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock or such other securities into which the shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such Holder are then convertible.

None of (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Company (other than in connection with the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company), (ii) the merger, conversion or consolidation of the Company into or with any other Person or (iii) the merger, conversion or consolidation of any other Person into or with the Company, shall constitute a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company for the purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph.

In the event the assets of the Company available for distribution to Holders upon any liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to this Section 3, no such distribution shall be made on account of any shares of Parity Stock upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up unless proportionate distributable amounts shall be paid on account of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which Holders and holders of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, with the amount allocable to each series of such stock determined on a pro rata basis of the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of each series and accrued and unpaid dividends to which each series is entitled.

After the payment to the Holders of the full preferential amounts provided for above, the Holders as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company.

Section 4. Voting Rights. (a) The Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights, including the right to elect any directors, except (i) voting rights, if any, required by law, and (ii) voting rights, if any, described in this Section 4.

(b) So long as any Series C Preferred Stock is outstanding, in addition to any other vote of stockholders of the Company required under applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote or consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, will be

required (i) for any amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation if the amendment would alter or change the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of the Holders so as to affect them adversely; provided that no such consent shall be required for the amendment of Section 7(a)(iv) of the Series A Preferred Stock to conform the anti-dilution calculations therein to Section 7(a)(iv) hereof , (ii) to issue, authorize or increase the authorized amount of, or issue or authorize any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase, any Parity Stock or Senior Stock, or (iii) to reclassify any authorized stock of the Company into any Parity Stock or Senior Stock, or any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase any Senior Stock. It is agreed that no such vote shall be required for the Company to issue, authorize or increase the authorized amount of, or issue or authorize any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase, any Junior Stock.

Section 5. Conversion.

(a) Mandatory Conversion. Effective as of the close of business on the Stockholder Approval Date, with respect to the shares of Series C Preferred Stock of a Holder, such Holder’s shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall automatically, without any action of such Holder, convert into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Liquidation Preference of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock divided by the Conversion Price then in effect (such quotient, the “Conversion Shares”).

(b) In addition, effective as of the close of business on the Stockholder Approval Date, a Holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, at the election of the Company, either (i) cash in an amount equal to the then unpaid Deferred Dividends in respect of shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such Holder or (ii) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the amount of any then unpaid Deferred Dividends in respect of shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such Holder divided by the Conversion Price then in effect (such quotient, the “Dividend Shares”).

No Holder may convert shares of Series C Preferred Stock other than pursuant to Section 5(a).

(i) In the event of conversion pursuant to Section 5(a), the Company shall deliver as promptly as practicable written notice to each holder specifying: (A) the Stockholder Approval Date; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued in respect of each share of Series C Preferred Stock that is converted; (C) the place or places where certificates or evidence of book-entry notation for such shares of Series C Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for issuance of certificates or evidence of book-entry notation representing shares of Common Stock; and (D) that dividends on the shares to be converted will cease to accrue on such Stockholder Approval Date. Unless the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such shares of Series C Preferred Stock are registered, each share surrendered for mandatory conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the holder thereof or such holder’s duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax in accordance with Section 14(f).

(ii) The conversion shall be deemed to have been effected at the close of business on the Stockholder Approval Date (as applicable). At such time: (A) the person in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such mandatory conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock represented thereby at such time; (B) such shares of Series C Preferred Stock so converted shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of a holder with respect to such shares shall immediately terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock and other amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5 and the right to receive any dividend declared but not yet paid pursuant to Section 2.

(iii) Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to receive the dividend payable on such shares of Series C Preferred Stock on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the mandatory conversion thereof following such Dividend Record Date and prior to such Dividend Payment Date. In such event, any such dividend that would otherwise be payable in the form of Series C Preferred Stock shall be payable to such Holder either (i) in cash or (ii) at the Company’s option, in shares of Common Stock converted at the Conversion Price in effect as of the time of such mandatory conversion.

(iv) In connection with the mandatory conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, no fractions of shares of Common Stock shall be issued, but in lieu thereof the Company shall pay an amount of cash in respect of such fractional interest equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Stockholder Approval Date.

Section 6. Settlement upon Conversion. The Company shall satisfy its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares and, if applicable, Dividend Shares (or such other class or series of securities into which the Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible) upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock by delivering to each Holder surrendering shares of Series C Preferred Stock for conversion a number of shares of Common Stock (or such other class or series of securities into which the Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible) equal to the Conversion Shares and, if applicable, Dividend Shares to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 5 (provided that the Company will deliver cash in lieu of fractional shares), as soon as practicable after the third Trading Day (but in no event later than the fifth Business Day) following the Stockholder Approval Date. In the event the Company elects to pay cash pursuant to Section 5(b)(i), such cash payment shall be made on the same date.

Section 7. Anti-dilution Adjustments. (a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments from time to time:

(i) Stock Dividends. In case the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock in Common Stock, the Conversion Price, as in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution, shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for

such determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination; provided, however, that no such adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if the Holders would be entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution pursuant to Section 2.

(ii) Stock Purchase Rights. In case the Company shall issue to all holders of its Common Stock options, warrants or other rights entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock for a period expiring within 60 days from the date of issuance of such options, warrants or other rights at a price per share of Common Stock less than 95% of the Market Value on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such options, warrants or other rights (other than pursuant to a dividend reinvestment, share purchase or similar plan), the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration expected to be received by the Company upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such options, warrants or other rights (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) would purchase at such Market Value and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, either directly or indirectly, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination; provided, however, that no such adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if the Holders would be entitled to receive such options, warrants or other rights pursuant to Section 2; provided, further, however, that if any of the foregoing options, warrants or other rights are only exercisable upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, then the Conversion Price will not be adjusted until such Triggering Event occurs.

(iii) Stock Splits, Reverse Splits and Combinations. In case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided, split or reclassified into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision, split or reclassification becomes effective shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined or reclassified into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such combination or reclassification becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, such reduction or increase, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision, split, reclassification or combination becomes effective.

(iv) Debt, Asset or Security Distributions. (A) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, assets or securities (but excluding any dividend or distribution of options, warrants or other rights referred to in paragraph (ii) of this Section 7(a), any dividend or distribution paid

exclusively in cash, any dividend or distribution of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit in the case of a Spin-off referred to in the next subparagraph, or any dividend or distribution referred to in paragraph (i) of this Section 7(a)), the Conversion Price shall be reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be such Market Value minus the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall be the Market Value on the date fixed for such determination, such adjustment to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution. In any case in which this subparagraph (iv)(A) is applicable, subparagraph (iv)(B) of this Section 7(a) shall not be applicable. No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if the Holders would be entitled to receive such dividend or distribution pursuant to Section 2.

(B) In the case of a Spin-off, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution shall be reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Market Value minus the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) of the shares (or fractions thereof) of Capital Stock or similar equity interests so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall be the Market Value. Any adjustment to the Conversion Price under this subparagraph (iv)(B) will occur on the date that is the earlier of (1) the tenth Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the Spin-off and (2) the date of the Initial Public Offering of the securities being distributed in the Spin-off, if that Initial Public Offering is effected simultaneously with the Spin-off. No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if the Holders would be entitled to receive such dividend or distribution pursuant to Section 2.

(v) Tender Offers. In the case that a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended through the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders of the Company (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of Purchased Shares) of aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) per share of Common Stock that exceeds the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, then, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders or exchanges could have been made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as amended through the expiration thereof), the Conversion Price shall be reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the product of (x) the Market Value on the date of the Expiration Time and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged

shares) on the date of the Expiration Time, and (B) the denominator of which shall be equal to (x) the product of (I) the Market Value on the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) on the date of the Expiration Time less the number of all shares validly tendered or exchanged, not withdrawn and accepted for payment on the date of the Expiration Time (such validly tendered or exchanged shares, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Shares”) plus (y) the amount of cash plus the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders of the Company pursuant to the tender or exchange offer (assuming the acceptance, up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer, of Purchased Shares).

(b) De Minimis Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment under this Section 7 need be made to the Conversion Price unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1.0% of the Conversion Price then in effect. Any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and together with the next subsequent adjustment, if any, which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall result in an increase or decrease of at least 1.0% of such Conversion Price. No adjustment under this Section 7 shall be made if such adjustment will result in a Conversion Price that is less than the par value of the Common Stock.

(c) Tax-Related Adjustments. The Company may make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this Section 7, as the Board of Directors considers advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. In the event the Company elects to make such a reduction in the Conversion Price, the Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder if and to the extent that such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the reduction in the Conversion Price.

(d) Stockholder Rights Plans. Upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent that the Holders receive Common Stock, such Holders shall receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the rights issued under any future stockholder rights plan the Company may establish whether or not such rights are separated from the Common Stock prior to conversion. A distribution of rights pursuant to any stockholder rights plan will not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 7(a)(ii) or 7(a)(iv), provided that the Company has provided for the Holders to receive such rights upon conversion.

(e) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted in accordance with this Section 7, the Company shall (i) compute the Conversion Price in accordance with this Section 7 and prepare and transmit to the Transfer Agent an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Price, the method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based and (ii) as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 7 (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), the Company or, at the request and expense of the Company, the Transfer Agent shall provide a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event and a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price.

(f) Reversal of Adjustment. If the Company 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 thereafter no adjustment in the Conversion Price then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

(g) Exceptions to Adjustment. The applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted:

(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any such plan;

(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date;

(iv) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Company in connection with acquisitions of assets or securities of another Person, including with respect to any merger or consolidation or similar transaction;

(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or

(vi) for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock or the Series C Preferred Stock.

Section 8. Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes in the Company’s Stock. In the event of any reclassification of outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (other than with a Subsidiary of the Company) or any merger of another Person with or into the Company (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the resulting or surviving Person and that does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding Common Stock), or any sale or other disposition to another Person of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (computed on a consolidated basis) (any of the foregoing, a “Transaction”), upon conversion of its shares of Series C Preferred Stock, a Holder will be entitled to receive the kind and amount of securities (of the Company or another issuer), cash and other property receivable upon such Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of

Series C Preferred Stock were convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, after giving effect to any adjustment event or, in the event holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in any Transaction, the weighted average of the forms and amounts of consideration received by the holders of the Common Stock. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Certificate of Designation, the Holders shall become entitled upon conversion to any securities other than, or in addition to, shares of Common Stock, thereafter the number or amount of such other securities so receivable upon conversion shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Common Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designation.

Section 9. Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets. (a) The Company, without the consent of the Holders, may consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to any Person or may permit any Person to consolidate with or merge into, or transfer or lease all or substantially all its properties to, the Company (any of the foregoing, “Reorganization”); provided, however, that (i) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock will become the kind and amount of securities of such successor, transferee or lessee, cash and other property receivable by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series C Preferred Stock were convertible immediately prior to such Reorganization; and (ii) the Company delivers to the Transfer Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, acceptable to the Transfer Agent, stating that such Reorganization complies with this Certificate of Designation.

(b) Upon any consolidation by the Company with, or merger by the Company into, any other Person or any conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all the assets of the Company as described in Section 9(a), the successor resulting from such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the transferee or lessee to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made, will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor (if still in existence) will be released from its obligations and covenants with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock.

Section 10. Notices. (a) When the Company is required, pursuant to this Certificate of Designation, to give notice to Holders by issuing a press release, rather than directly to Holders, the Company shall do so in a public medium that is customary for such press release; provided, however, that in such cases, publication of a press release through the Dow ▇▇▇▇▇ News Service shall be considered sufficient to comply with such notice obligation.

(b) When the Company is required, pursuant to this Certificate of Designation, to give notice to Holders without specifying the method of giving such notice, the Company shall do so by sending notice via first class mail or by overnight courier to the Holders of record as of a reasonably current date.

Section 11. Transfer of Securities. (a) The shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Securities”) have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities laws and may not be offered or sold except in compliance with the registration

requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, or in a transaction not subject to such laws. The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock will have the benefit of certain registration rights under the Securities Act pursuant to an Investment Agreement entered into by the Company and the Holders on May 29, 2015, a copy of which may be obtained from the Company by writing to it at XPO Logistics, Inc., Five ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attention: Secretary of the Board of Directors.

(b) If shares of Series C Preferred Stock in certificated form are delivered upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of shares of Series C Preferred Stock bearing the Restricted Stock Legend, or if a request is made to remove such Restricted Stock Legend on shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the shares of Series C Preferred Stock so issued shall bear the Restricted Stock Legend and the Restricted Stock Legend shall not be removed unless there is delivered to the Company and the Transfer Agent such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel licensed to practice law in the State of New York, as may be reasonably required by the Company, that such shares of Series C Preferred Stock are not “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or may be transferred without any restrictions or conditions under that Rule. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Transfer Agent, at the direction of the Company, shall countersign and deliver shares of Series C Preferred Stock that do not bear the Restricted Stock Legend.

(c) Shares of Common Stock issued upon a conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock bearing the Restricted Stock Legend, prior to the first anniversary of the Issue Date, shall be in global form and bear a restricted common stock legend that corresponds to the Restricted Stock Legend (the “Restricted Common Stock Legend”).

(d) The Company will refuse to register any transfer of Securities that is not made in accordance with the provisions of the Restricted Stock Legend or the Restricted Common Stock Legend, as applicable, provided that the provisions of this Section 11(d) shall not be applicable to any Security that does not bear any Restricted Stock Legend or any Restricted Common Stock Legend.

Section 12. Certain Tax Matters. The Company and the Holders acknowledge and agree that it is intended that the Series C Preferred Stock not constitute “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and that neither the Company nor the Holders shall treat the Series C Preferred Stock as such. The Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment of cash, shares of Series C Preferred Stock, shares of Common Stock or other consideration deliverable to a Holder of a share of Series C Preferred Stock, any amounts required to be deducted or withheld under applicable U.S. federal, state, local or foreign tax laws with respect to such payment or issuance. In the event the Company paid withholding taxes to a governmental authority in respect of any amount treated as a distribution on a share of Series C Preferred Stock, the Company shall be entitled to deduct any such taxes from any subsequent payment of cash, shares of Series C Preferred Stock, shares of Common Stock or other consideration otherwise deliverable to a Holder of a share of Series C Preferred Stock.

(b) For the purposes of Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

(c) If the Company shall take any action affecting the Common Stock, other than any action described in Section 7, that in the opinion of the Board of Directors would materially adversely affect the conversion rights of the Holders, then the Conversion Price for the Series C Preferred Stock may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, and at such time, as the Board of Directors may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.

If a court of competent jurisdiction should determine that a provision hereof would be valid or enforceable if a period of time were extended or shortened or a particular percentage were increased or decreased, then such court may make such change as shall be necessary to render the provision in question effective and valid under applicable law.

(n) Shares of Series C Preferred Stock that (i) have not been issued on or before the Issue Date or (ii) have been issued and reacquired in any manner, including shares of Series C Preferred Stock purchased or converted, shall (upon compliance with any applicable provisions of the laws of Delaware) have the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock of the Company undesignated as to series and may be designated or redesignated and issued or reissued, as the case may be, as part of any series of preferred stock of the Company; provided that any issuance of such shares as Series C Preferred Stock must be in compliance with the terms hereof.

(o) If any of the Series C Preferred Stock certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, in exchange and in substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Series C Preferred Stock certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Series C Preferred Stock certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Series C Preferred Stock certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent amount of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Series C Preferred Stock certificate and indemnity, if requested, reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent.
