2.4 Conversion of Shares. The Shareholders of the Company shall be entitled to receive a total of 28,500,000 Shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Exchange Consideration”) in exchange for their shares of Company Stock, pursuant to the provisions set forth herein. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, or any stockholder of the Company:

(a) Any shares of Company Stock held as treasury stock or held or owned by the Company or Parent or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Other than with respect to shares of Company Stock referred to in Section 2.4(a), and subject to the remainder of this Section 2.4, and Section 2.5, (i) each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.4(a) and excluding Dissenting Shares) shall be converted solely into the right to receive a pro-rata portion (based on the total number of outstanding shares of Company Stock as of the closing) of the Exchange Consideration.

(c) Each share of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred stock of the Company (“Company Series A”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and shall thereafter represent one share of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred stock of the Parent (“Parent Preferred A”), provided that each reference in the Certificate of Designation of the Company Series A (i) to a share of “Company Common Stock” shall be deemed to be a reference to a share of Parent Common Stock and (ii) to the “Corporation” shall be deemed a reference to Parent. The Parent Preferred A shall otherwise have the same designations and preferences as applied to each such share of Company Series A immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Each share of Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred stock of the Company (“Company Series B”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and shall thereafter represent one share of Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred stock of the Parent (“Parent Preferred B”), provided that each reference in the Certificate of Designation of the Company Series B (i) to a share of “Company Common Stock” shall be deemed to be a reference to a share of Parent Common Stock and (ii) to the “Corporation” shall be deemed a reference to Parent. The Parent Preferred B shall otherwise have the same designations and preferences as applied to each such share of Company Series B immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) At the Effective Time, Parent shall assume all options and warrants to acquire Company Common Stock as set forth on Schedule 4.2(a) (collectively, the “Company Stock Options”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, without limitation, any vesting provisions), except that (A) each Company Stock Option will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of Parent Common Shares equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock that such Company Stock Option related to prior to the Effective Time. At or before the Effective Time, the Company shall cause to be effected any necessary amendments to any Company stock option plans to give effect to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4(e).

(f) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger as a result of the conversion provided for in Section 2.4(b) and all share amounts shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. Each of Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Shareholder such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other applicable state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, to the applicable Governmental Authority and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Shareholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be.

(g) Following the Effective Time, each holder of record of one or more shares of Company Stock may, but shall not be required to, surrender any certificate representing such shares for cancellation to Parent or its transfer agent, and the holder of such certificate shall be entitled to be entered on the register of shareholders of the Parent as the holder of that number of Parent Common Stock represented by the Company certificates, as applicable, and the applicable Company certificates shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate or other applicable document or instrument representing the proper number of shares of Company Stock may be issued to such a transferee if the certificate representing such Company Stock is presented to Parent or its transfer agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.

(h) If any certificates representing shares of Company Stock shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, certificates or documents representing the Parent Common Stock to be issued to such holder pursuant to this Article II; except, that Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof (or entry on the register of shareholders, as the case may be), require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to deliver a bond or indemnity in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent or the Company with respect to the certificates so alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.5 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by stockholders who have exercised and perfected appraisal rights or dissenters' rights for such shares of Company Stock in accordance with the NRS, if and to the extent applicable (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the per share amount of the merger consideration described in Section 2.4 attributable to such Dissenting Shares. Such stockholders shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of Company Stock held by them in accordance with the NRS (if and to the extent applicable), unless and until such stockholders fail to perfect or effectively withdraw or otherwise lose their appraisal rights under the NRS (if any). All Dissenting Shares held by stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or lost their right to appraisal of such shares of Company Stock under the NRS (if applicable) shall thereupon be deemed to be converted into and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the per share amount of the merger consideration attributable to such Dissenting Shares in the manner provided in Section 2.4.

(b) The Company shall give the Parent prompt written notice of any demands by dissenting stockholders received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served on the Company and any material correspondence received by the Company in connection with such demands.

2.6 Parent Stock. At the Effective Time, any outstanding shares of Parent Stock that are owned by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company or any other direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary thereof shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor.

2.7 Deposit. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall deposit into the trust account of Parent’s counsel identified in Section 11.5 the sum of $50,000 (the “Deposit”). The Deposit shall be utilized as set forth in Section 10.3.

A Fundamental Transaction or Change of Control Transaction shall not be deemed a Liquidation. The Company shall mail written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each Holder.

Section 5. Conversion and Redemption.

a) Conversions at Option of Holder. Each share of Series D Preferred shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of shares of Common Stock (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(d)) determined by multiplying the number of shares of Series D Preferred by the Conversion Rate (as hereinafter defined). Holders shall effect conversions by providing the Company with the form of conversion notice attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Conversion”). Each Notice of Conversion shall specify the number of shares of Series D Preferred to be converted, the number of shares of Series D Preferred owned prior to the conversion at issue, the number of shares of Series D Preferred owned subsequent to the conversion at issue and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the applicable Holder delivers by facsimile such Notice of Conversion to the Company (such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion to the Company is deemed delivered hereunder. No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required. The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. To effect conversions of shares of Series D Preferred, a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series D Preferred to the Company unless all of the shares of Series D Preferred represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series D Preferred promptly following the Conversion Date at issue. Shares of Series D Preferred converted into Common Stock or redeemed in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and shall not be reissued.

A-4

b) Conversion Rate. The conversion rate for the Series D Preferred shall be one (1) for one (1), subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Rate”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at any time during the 12 months after the Series D Preferred is issued, the Company sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any person to acquire shares of Common Stock (a “Dilutive Issuance”) at an effective price per share that is lower (the “Dilutive Issuance Price”) than $0.25 per share (the “Base Conversion Price”) then the Conversion Rate shall be equal to (x) one (1) divided by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Dilutive Issuance Price, and the denominator of which is the Base Conversion Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any person to acquire shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed a Dilutive Issuance if such issuance results in at least $3,000,000 in net cash proceeds to the Company and the value of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents on a per share basis issued as part of such transaction is based on a pre-issuance valuation of the Company (the “Pre-issuance Valuation”) of at least $15,000,000 (the “Pre-issuance Valuation Amount”). The Pre-issuance Valuation shall be computed by dividing the Pre-issuance Valuation Amount by the total number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents (assuming conversion) outstanding prior to the Dilutive Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 5(b) in respect of an Excepted Issuance.

c) Mechanics of Conversion

i. Delivery of Conversion Shares Upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting Holder the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of the Series D Preferred which, on or after the earlier of (i) the twelve month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions. If the Common Stock is listed or quoted for public trading, the Company shall deliver the Conversion Shares required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 5 electronically through the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions), the Company shall cause the transfer agent to electronically transmit the applicable Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, and provide proof satisfactory to the Holder of such delivery. In the event that the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC FAST program and is not otherwise DWAC eligible, within three (3) Business Days after the date of the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall instruct and cause its transfer agent to issue and surrender to a nationally recognized overnight courier for delivery to the address specified in the Notice of Conversion, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled.

A-5

ii. Failure to Deliver Conversion Shares. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such Conversion Shares are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such Conversion Shares, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Series D Preferred certificate delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Conversion Shares issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.

iii. Obligation Absolute. The Company’s obligation to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of Series D Preferred in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action that the Company may have against such Holder. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of the Series D Preferred, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series D Preferred of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the market value of the Conversion Shares based on the closing price of the Common Stock as quoted on the OTC Markets as of the Conversion Date, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares and, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails to deliver to a Holder such Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 5(c)(iii) by the fifth Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Conversion Amount being converted, $50 per Trading Day (increasing to $100 per Trading Day on the sixth Trading Day and increasing to $200 per Trading Day on the tenth Trading Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such fifth Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

A-6

iv. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series D Preferred, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Series D Preferred), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 6) upon the conversion of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred (the “Reserved Amount”). The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Reserved Amount shall be recalculated each month and the Company shall notify its transfer agent and the Holder in writing by the first day of the following month of the new Reserved Amount. In addition, if the Corporation shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of Conversion Shares into which this Series D Preferred shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Corporation shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of this Note. The Corporation (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Conversion Shares or instructions to have the Conversion Shares issued as contemplated by Section 5(c) hereof, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of shares of the Series D Preferred shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or cause the Corporation to electronically issue shares of Common Stock to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Conversion Shares or cause the Conversion Shares to be issued as contemplated by Section 5(c) hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations.

v. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series D Preferred. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Rate or round up to the next whole share.

vi. Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of Conversion Shares on conversion of this Series D Preferred shall be made without charge to any Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Conversion Shares, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such Conversion Shares upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Series D Preferred and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Conversion Shares unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.

A-7

Section 6. Certain Adjustments.

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Series D Preferred is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any other Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of this Series D Preferred), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Rate shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

b) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Series D Preferred is outstanding, if the Company declares or makes any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a "Distribution"), at any time after the issuance of this Series D Preferred, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete Conversion of this Series D Preferred (without regard to any limitations on Conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

A-8

c) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Series D Preferred is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series D Preferred, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Series D Preferred is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Rate shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Rate among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Series D Preferred following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holders’ right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate of Designation in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the holder of this Series D Preferred, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Series D Preferred a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Series D Preferred which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Series D Preferred (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Series D Preferred) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Series D Preferred immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Designation referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate of Designation with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

A-9

d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 6 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 6, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.

e) Notice to the Holders.

i. Adjustment to Conversion Rate. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 6, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder. If (A) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (B) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Series D Preferred, and shall cause to be delivered to each Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
