FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Various statements contained in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are indicated by words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "may," "will," "should," "seek," "plan," "intend" or "anticipate" or the negative thereof or comparable terminology, or by discussion of strategy. Forward-looking statements represent as of the date of this prospectus our judgment relating to, among other things, future results of operations, growth plans, sales, capital requirements and general industry and business conditions applicable to us. Such forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those that are anticipated or projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, a number of factors, such as:

·
successful execution of our business strategy, particularly for new endeavors;
·
the performance of our targeted markets;
·
competitive product and pricing pressures;
·
changes in business relationships with our major customers;
·
successful integration of acquired businesses;
·
the content we distribute through our in-theatre, on-line and mobile services may expose us to liability;
·
general economic and market conditions;
·
the effect of our indebtedness on our financial condition and financial flexibility, including, but not limited to, the ability to obtain necessary financing for our business; and
·
the other risks and uncertainties that are described under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus and from time to time in our filings with the SEC.

These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements.  Except as otherwise required to be disclosed in periodic and current reports required to be filed by public companies with the SEC pursuant to the SEC's rules, we have no duty to update these statements, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks and uncertainties, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking information contained in this prospectus will in fact transpire.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY


This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference. It does not contain all of the information that you should consider before making a decision to invest in the Common Stock. You should read carefully the entire prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference, including "Risk Factors" and the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement.

In this prospectus, "Cinedigm", "we," "us," "our" and the "Company" refer to Cinedigm Corp. and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires.

OUR BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

Cinedigm was incorporated in Delaware on March 31, 2000. We are (i) a leading distributor and aggregator of independent movie, television and other short form content managing a library of distribution rights to thousands of titles and episodes released across digital, physical, and home and mobile entertainment platforms as well as (ii) a leading servicer of digital cinema assets on over 12,000 domestic and foreign movie screens.

Since our inception, we have played a significant role in the digital distribution revolution that continues to transform the media landscape. In addition to our pioneering role in transitioning over 12,000 movie screens from traditional analog film prints to digital distribution, we have become a leading distributor of independent content, both through organic growth and acquisitions. We distribute products for major brands such as the Discovery Networks, National Geographic and Scholastic as well as leading international and domestic content creators, movie producers, television producers and other short form digital content producers. We collaborate with producers, major brands and other content owners to market, source, curate and distribute quality content to targeted audiences through (i) existing and emerging digital home entertainment platforms, including but not limited to, iTunes, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Xbox, PlayStation, and cable video-on-demand ("VOD") and (ii) physical goods, including DVD and Blu-ray Discs. In addition, we operate a growing number of branded and curated over-the-top ("OTT") entertainment channels, including Docurama, CONtv and Dove Entertainment Channel.

We report our financial results in four primary segments as follows: (1) the first digital cinema deployment ("Phase I Deployment"), (2) the second digital cinema deployment ("Phase II Deployment"), (3) digital cinema services ("Services") and (4) media content and entertainment group ("Content & Entertainment" or "CEG"). The Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments are the non-recourse, financing vehicles and administrators for our digital cinema equipment (the "Systems") installed in movie theatres throughout the United States and Canada, and in Australia and New Zealand. Our Services segment provides fee-based support to over 12,000 movie screens in our Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments as well as directly to exhibitors and other third party customers in the form of monitoring, billing, collection and verification services. Our Content & Entertainment segment is a market leader in: (1) ancillary market aggregation and distribution of entertainment content, and (2) branded and curated OTT digital network business providing entertainment channels and applications.

We are structured so that our digital cinema business (collectively, our Phase I Deployment, Phase II Deployment and Services segments) operates independently from our Content & Entertainment business.  As of June 30, 2016, we had approximately $105.8 million of non-recourse outstanding debt principal that relates to, and is serviced by, our digital cinema business.  We also had approximately $84 million of outstanding debt principal, as of June 30, 2016, that is attributable to our Content & Entertainment and Corporate Segments.

RISK FACTORS


An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty. In addition to the other information included in this prospectus, you should carefully consider each of the risk factors set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q on file with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. The risks described are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we presently consider immaterial may also adversely affect our company. If any of the risks described occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part or your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and this Offering
 
The liquidity of the Common Stock is uncertain; the limited trading volume of the Common Stock may depress the price of such stock or cause it to fluctuate significantly.

Although the Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq, there has been a limited public market for the Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a more active trading market for the Common Stock will develop. As a result, you may not be able to sell your shares of Common Stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. The absence of an active trading market may cause the price per share of the Common Stock to fluctuate significantly.

Substantial resales or future issuances of the Common Stock could depress our stock price.

The market price for the Common Stock could decline, perhaps significantly, as a result of resales or issuances of a large number of shares of the Common Stock in the public market or even the perception that such resales or issuances could occur, including resales of the shares being registered hereunder pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part. In addition, we have outstanding a substantial number of options, warrants and other securities convertible into shares of Common Stock that may be exercised in the future. Certain holders of our securities, including with respect to shares of Common Stock issuable in exchange for warrants, have demand and piggy-back registration rights. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of our equity securities.

You will incur substantial dilution as a result of certain future equity issuances.

We have a substantial number of options, warrants and other securities currently outstanding which may be immediately converted into shares of Common Stock. To the extent that these options, warrants or similar securities are exercised or converted, or to the extent we issue additional shares of Common Stock in the future, as the case may be, there will be further dilution to holders of shares of the Common Stock.

Our issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect holders of Common Stock.

Our board of directors is authorized to issue series of preferred stock without any action on the part of our holders of Common Stock. Our board of directors also has the power, without stockholder approval, to set the terms of any such series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights, dividend rights, preferences over our Common Stock with respect to dividends or if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our business and other terms. If we issue preferred stock in the future that has preference over our Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or if we issue preferred stock with voting rights that dilute the voting power of our Common Stock, the rights of holders of our Common Stock or the price of our Common Stock could be adversely affected.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as well as of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so might be beneficial to our stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The terms of our preferred stock may be fixed by the company's board of directors without further stockholder action. The terms of any outstanding series or class of preferred stock may include priority claims to assets and dividends and special voting rights, which could adversely affect the rights of holders of Common Stock. Any future issuance(s) of preferred stock could make the takeover of the company more difficult, discourage unsolicited bids for control of the company in which our stockholders could receive

premiums for their shares, dilute or subordinate the rights of holders of Common Stock and adversely affect the trading price of the Common Stock. In addition, as described below in the risk factor titled "The acquisition restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation, which are intended to help preserve our net operating losses, may not be effective or may have unintended negative effects," the acquisition restrictions in our certificate of incorporation also contain mechanisms by which any person attempting to become a holder of 5% or more of our Common Stock may seek advance approval from our Board.
 
Under Section 203 of the DGCL, Delaware corporations whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange, like Nasdaq, may not engage in business combinations such as mergers or acquisitions with any interested stockholders, defined as an entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding Common Stock without obtaining certain prior approvals. As a result of the application of Section 203, potential acquirers of the company may be discouraged from attempting to effect an acquisition transaction with the company, thereby depriving holders of the company's securities of opportunities to sell or otherwise dispose of the securities at prices above prevailing market prices.

The acquisition restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation, which are intended to help preserve our net operating losses, may not be effective or may have unintended negative effects.

We have experienced, and may continue to experience, substantial operating losses, and under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Section 382"), and rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service, we may "carry forward" these net operating losses ("NOLs") in certain circumstances to offset any current and future earnings and thus reduce our federal income tax liability, subject to certain requirements and restrictions. To the extent that the NOLs do not otherwise become limited, we believe that we will be able to carry forward a significant amount of the NOLs, and therefore these NOLs could be a substantial asset to us. If, however, we experience a Section 382 ownership change, our ability to use the NOLs will be substantially limited, and the timing of the usage of the NOLs could be substantially delayed, which could therefore significantly impair the value of that asset.

To reduce the likelihood of an ownership change, we have established acquisition restrictions in our certificate of incorporation. The acquisition restrictions in our certificate of incorporation are intended to restrict certain acquisitions of the Class A common stock to help preserve our ability to utilize our NOLs by avoiding the limitations imposed by Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations. The acquisition restrictions are generally designed to restrict or deter direct and indirect acquisitions of the Class A common stock if such acquisition would result in a shareholder becoming a "5-percent shareholder" (as defined by Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations) or increase the percentage ownership of Company stock that is treated as owned by an existing 5-percent shareholder.

Although the acquisition restrictions are intended to reduce the likelihood of an ownership change that could adversely affect us, we can give no assurance that such restrictions would prevent all transfers that could result in such an ownership change. In particular, we have been advised by our counsel that, absent a court determination, there can be no assurance that the acquisition restrictions will be enforceable against all of our shareholders, and that they may be subject to challenge on equitable grounds. In particular, it is possible that the acquisition restrictions may not be enforceable against the shareholders who voted against or abstained from voting on the restrictions at our 2009 annual meeting of stockholders.

Under certain circumstances, our Board may determine it is in our best interest to exempt certain 5-percent shareholders from the operation of the acquisition restrictions, if a proposed transaction is determined not to be detrimental to the utilization of our NOLs.

The acquisition restrictions also require any person attempting to become a holder of 5% or more of the Class A common stock, as determined under Section 382, to seek the approval of our Board. This may have an unintended "anti-takeover" effect because our Board may be able to prevent any future takeover. Similarly, any limits on the amount of stock that a stockholder may own could have the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to replace current management. Additionally, because the acquisition restrictions have the effect of restricting a stockholder's ability to dispose of or acquire the Class A common stock, the liquidity and market value of the Class A common stock might suffer. The acquisition restrictions may be waived by our Board. Stockholders are advised to monitor carefully their ownership of the Class A common stock and consult their own legal advisors and/or Company to determine whether their ownership of the Class A common stock approaches the proscribed level.

The occurrence of various events may adversely affect our ability to fully utilize NOLs.

We have a substantial amount of NOLs for U.S. federal income tax purposes that are available both currently and in the future to offset taxable income and gains. Events outside of our control may cause us to experience a Section 382 ownership change, and limit our ability to fully utilize such NOLs.

In general, an ownership change occurs when, as of any testing date, the percentage of stock of a corporation owned by one or more "5-percent shareholders," as defined in the Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations, has increased by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock of the corporation owned by such shareholders at any time during the three-year period preceding such date. In general, persons who own 5% or more of a corporation's stock are 5-percent shareholders, and all other persons who own less than 5% of a corporation's stock are treated, together, as a single, public group 5-percent shareholder, regardless of whether they own an aggregate of 5% or more of a corporation's stock. If a corporation experiences an ownership change, it is generally subject to an annual limitation, which limits its ability to use its NOLs to an amount equal to the equity value of the corporation multiplied by the federal long-term tax-exempt rate.

If we were to experience an ownership change, we could potentially have, in the future, higher U.S. federal income tax liabilities than we would otherwise have had and it may also result in certain other adverse consequences to us. Therefore, we have adopted the acquisition restrictions set forth in Article Fourth of our certificate of incorporation in order to reduce the likelihood that we will experience an ownership change under Section 382. There can be no assurance, however, that these efforts will deter or prevent the occurrence of an ownership change and the adverse consequences that may arise therefrom, as described above under the risk factor titled "The acquisition restrictions contained in our certificate of incorporation, which are intended to help preserve our net operating losses, may not be effective or may have unintended negative effects."

Our stock price has been volatile and may continue to be volatile in the future; this volatility may affect the price at which you could sell our Class A common stock.

The trading price of the Class A common stock has been volatile and may continue to be volatile in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on an investment in the Class A common stock:
 
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;
changes in the market's expectations about our operating results;
success of competitors;
our operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;
changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us, the market for digital and physical content, content distribution and entertainment in general;
operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;
our ability to market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;
changes in laws and regulations affecting our business or our industry;
commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving us;
changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;
the volume of shares of the Class A common stock available for public sale;
any major change in our board of directors or management;
sales of substantial amounts of Class A common stock by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and
general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism.
 
Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of the Class A common stock irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and Nasdaq in particular, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of the Class A common stock, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies that investors perceive to be similar to us could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of the Class A common stock also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair a takeover attempt.

Our fourth amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management without the consent of our board of directors. These provisions include:
 
 
a restriction on certain acquisitions of our common stock to help preserve our ability to utilize our significant NOLs by avoiding the limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Code;
 
 
7

 
 
no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;
the exclusive right of our board of directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or the resignation, death, or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors;
the ability of our board of directors to determine to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;
the requirement that an annual meeting of stockholders may be called only by the board of directors, which may delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;
limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;
controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of stockholder meetings; and
providing that directors may be removed prior to the expiration of their terms by the Board of Directors only for cause.
 
These provisions, alone or together, could delay hostile takeovers and changes in control of the Company or changes in our management.

As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the DGCL, which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding common stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock. Any provision of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock, and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for the Class A common stock.

We may not be able to maintain the listing of our Common Stock on Nasdaq, which may adversely affect the ability of purchasers of Class A Common Stock in this offering to resell their securities in the secondary market.

If the Company were unable to meet the continued listing criteria of Nasdaq and the Common Stock became delisted, trading of the Common Stock could thereafter be conducted in the over-the-counter markets in the OTC Pink, also known as "pink sheets" or, if available, on the OTC Bulletin Board.

On June 23, 2016, we received a letter (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") indicating that the Company no longer meets the requirement to maintain a minimum market value of publicly held shares ("MVPHS"), of $15.0 million, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(3)(C). The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company's common stock from the Nasdaq Global Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have been provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until December 20, 2016, in which to regain compliance.

Any such delisting could harm our ability to raise capital through alternative financing sources on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and may result in the loss of confidence in our financial stability by suppliers, customers and employees.  Investors would likely find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate market quotations for, the Common Stock, as the liquidity that Nasdaq provides would no longer be available to investors. In addition, the failure of our Common Stock to continue to be listed on the Nasdaq could adversely impact the market price for the Common Stock, and we could face a lengthy process to re-list the Common Stock, if we are able to re-list the Common Stock.

We have no present intention of paying dividends on our Common Stock.
 
We have never paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and have no present plans to do so.  As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our Common Stock unless you sell our common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, which could make us unable to fund our capital requirements.

Our business and operations may consume resources faster than we anticipate, or we may require additional funds to pursue acquisition or expansion opportunities. In the future, we may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of new equity securities, debt or a combination of both. Additional financing may not be available on favorable terms or at all. If adequate
 
 
8

 
funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund our capital requirements. If we issue new debt securities, the debt holders would have rights senior to common stockholders to make claims on our assets, and the terms of any debt could restrict our operations, including our ability to pay dividends on our Common Stock.  Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future securities offerings reducing the market price of our Common Stock, diluting their interest or being subject to rights and preferences senior to their own.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits investors;
 
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
privately negotiated transactions;
 
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;
 
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the Purchasers of shares, from the Purchasers) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
 
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with
 
 
12

 
a broker-dealer for the sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
 
The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the Purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this Registration Statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder's business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.
 
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES


The following summary description of our common stock is not intended to be complete and is subject, and qualified in its entirety by reference, to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, in each case as amended to date.

General

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 26,241,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 25,000,000 shares are Class A common stock (referred to herein as "Common Stock") and 1,241,000 shares are Class B common stock, and 15,000,000, shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

Holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock present or represented by proxy at any meeting of our stockholders constitute a quorum. If a quorum exists, holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of common stock present at the meeting may generally approve matters coming before any stockholders meeting. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock is required to approve significant corporate transactions, including a liquidation, merger or sale of substantially all of our assets.

Common Stock

As of November 7, 2016, we had 25,000,000 shares designated as Class A common stock and 1,241,000 designated as Class B common stock, and had 9,233,820 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and owned by 92 record holders, had reserved for issuance (i) 344,165 shares of Class A common stock under the Plan, (ii) 497,749 shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of inducement stock options, (iii) 52,277,262 shares of Class A common stock with respect to outstanding convertible notes, and (iv) 2,163,524  shares of Class A common stock with respect to outstanding warrants. On May 9, 2016, we effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock effected of the Class A common stock. In this prospectus, the Class A common stock is referred to as the Common Stock. There are no shares of Class B common stock outstanding and no authorized shares of Class B common stock remain available for issuance.

Voting Rights .  Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders.

Dividends; Liquidation; Preemptive Rights.   Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends only if, as and when declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, holders of Common Stock are entitled, subject to any priorities due to any holders of our preferred stock, ratably to share in all assets remaining after payment of our liabilities. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights nor any other rights to subscribe for shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock.

Transfer Restrictions.   Our certificate of incorporation restricts certain acquisitions of our common stock to help preserve our ability to utilize our significant net operating losses, or NOLs, by avoiding the limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and the related Treasury regulations. The acquisition restrictions are generally designed to restrict or deter direct and indirect acquisitions of our common stock if such acquisition would result in a shareholder becoming a "5-percent shareholder" (as defined by Section 382 and the related Treasury regulations) or increase the percentage ownership of Common Stock that is treated as owned by an existing 5-percent shareholder. Under certain circumstances, our board of directors may determine it is in the best interest of the Company to exempt certain 5-percent shareholders from the operation of the acquisition restrictions, if a proposed transaction is determined not to be detrimental to the Company's utilization of its NOLs.

Our Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Market, or Nasdaq, under the symbol "CIDM".

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for our Common Stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. Its address is 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219, and its telephone number is (800) 937-5449.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the offered securities has been passed on for us by Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, New York, New York.


EXPERTS
 
The consolidated financial statements of Cinedigm Corp. as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2016 have been audited by EisnerAmper LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report (which contains an explanatory paragraph related to the Company's limited liquidity and significant contractual obligation as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements)  incorporated by reference herein, and are included in reliance upon such reports given on the authority of such firm  as experts in accounting and auditing.
 

INDEMNIFICATION AGAINST LIABILITY UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT

We are permitted to indemnify to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, each director, officer or other authorized representative of the Company who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was an authorized representative of the Company, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements), judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

A director of the Company shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided, however that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director to the extent that such elimination or liability is expressly prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law as in effect at the time of the alleged breach of duty by such director.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to any arrangement, provision or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by any of our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the Company provide that the Company shall indemnify its officers, directors and certain others to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL"). Section 145 of the DGCL, provides in pertinent part as follows:

(a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(c) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

II-1


(d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section. Such determination shall be made with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination (1) by a majority vote of directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (4) by the stockholders.

(e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

(f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this Section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

(g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person, who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under this Section.

(h) For purposes of this Section, references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

(i) For purposes of this Section, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in this Section.

(j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the Company's fourth amended and restated certificate of incorporation eliminates the personal liability of each of the Company's directors to the Company and its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of his or her fiduciary duties as a director except that the fourth amended and restated certificate of incorporation does not eliminate or limit the liability of a director to the extent that such elimination or limitation of liability is expressly prohibited by the DGCL as in effect at the time of the alleged breach of duty by such director.

In addition, the Company has entered into contractual agreements with each of its directors and officers to indemnify such individuals to the full extent permitted by law. These agreements also resolve certain procedural and substantive matters that are not covered, or are covered in less detail, in the Company's By-laws or by the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Company also currently maintains director and officer liability insurance.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

(a) Exhibits.

The exhibits to the registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules.

Financial statement schedules have been omitted, as the information required to be set forth therein is included in the Consolidated Financial Statements or Notes thereto appearing in the prospectus made part of this registration statement.

Item 17. Undertakings

Undertakings Required by Regulation S-K, Item 512(a).

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:


 
(1)
To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:

 
(i)
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 
(ii)
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

 
(iii)
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 
(5)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
 
 
 
II-3


 
 
(i)
Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 
(ii)
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contact of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

Undertakings Required by Regulation S-K, Item 512(b).

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Undertaking Required by Regulation S-K, Item 512(h).

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to any arrangement, provision or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Gary Loffredo, Secretary of the herein named Corporation, hereby certifies that:

2.   The date of filing of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware is November 21, 2001.

The date of filing the original Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware is March 31, 2000. The original name of the Corporation was Access Colo, Inc.
3.   The Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended and restated by striking out Articles ONE through SIXTEEN and substituting in lieu thereof new Articles ONE through TEN, which Articles shall, among other things, declare a reverse stock split of the Corporation's capital stock and eliminate certain classes and series at the Corporation's capital stock (the "Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation").
4.   The provisions of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation are hereby amended, restated and integrated into the single instrument that is hereinafter set forth, and that is entitled the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation without any further amendments other than the amendments herein certified.
5.   This Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation herein certified has been duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 228, 242 and 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Prompt written notice of the adoption of the amendment herein certified has been given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing thereto, as provided in Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
6.   The Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated herein, shall, at the effective time of this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, read as follows:
FIRST:  Name: The name of the Corporation is: Access Integrated Technologies, Inc.
SECOND:  Address: The address of the Corporation's registered office in the State of Delaware is 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington, County of New Castle, Delaware 19808. The name of the agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

 



THIRD:  Purpose: The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
FOURTH:  Capitalization: The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is Ninety-Five Million (95,000,000) shares as follows: (i) Eighty Million (80,000,000) shares of common stock, of which Forty Million (40,000,000) shares shall be Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares shall be Class B Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"); and (ii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which the Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution or resolutions to fix all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Preferred Stock permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and to divide the Preferred Stock into one or more class and/or classes and designate all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each class permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Except as otherwise provided by law or this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (this "Certificate of Incorporation"), the holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock, shall have all the same rights and privileges as Common Stock, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation on the following basis: (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote, and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to ten votes.
Each share of Class B Common Stock may also be converted, at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, consolidations, recapitalizations and reorganizations). Each holder of Class B Common Stock that desires to convert its shares of Class B Common Stock, into shares of Class A Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class B Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date.
At the option of the holders of fifty-one (51%) percent of the shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock, voting as a class, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be converted (the "Class B Conversion") into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-

 
2



assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, consolidations, recaptializations, reorganizations or other like occurrences). All holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock, then outstanding shall be given at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the date fixed (the "Conversion Date") and place designated by the Corporation for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph. Such notice shall be sent by first-class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's address last shown on the records of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock by the Conversion Date. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date; provided, however, that if such certificate or certificates are not surrendered by such holder by the Conversion Date, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the Conversion Date and such holder thereafter shall be deemed to have a right to receive only such number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock shall be converted in accordance herewith.
Upon the effectiveness (the "Effective Date") of the Certificate of Amendment filed by the Corporation on September 18, 2003, each five (5) shares of Class A and B Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date (the "Old Common Stock") shall be converted into one (1) share of Class A and B Common Stock, respectively (the "New Common Stock"), subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below. A holder of such five (5) shares shall be entitled to receive, upon surrender of a stock certificate or stock certificates representing such Old Common Stock (the "Old Certificates," whether one or more) to the Corporation for cancellation, a certificate of certificates (the "New Certificates," whether one or more) representing the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock formerly represented by such Old Certificates so surrendered are reclassified under the terms hereof. No certificates representing fractional share interests in New Common Stock will be issued, and no such fractional share interest will entitle the holder thereof to vote, or to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation. In lieu of such fractional shares, each holder of Class Old Common Stock who or that would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of such common stock upon surrender of such holder's Old Certificates will be entitled to receive one sole share of such common stock. If more than one Old Certificate shall be surrendered at one time for the account of the same stockholder, the number of full shares of New Common Stock for which New Certificates shall be issued shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares represented by the Old Certificates so surrendered. In the event that the Corporation determines that a holder of Old Certificates has not tendered all his or her certificates for exchange, the Corporation shall carry forward any fractional share until all certificates of that holder have been presented for exchange such that any stockholder will not be entitled to receive more than one

 
3



share of New Common Stock in lieu of fractional shares. If any New Certificate is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Old Certificates surrendered for exchange are issued, the Old Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and registered in such name or names as such holder may direct, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders' Agreement, as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, among the Corporation and certain of its stockholders to the extent such designation shall involve a transfer, and the person or persons requesting such exchange shall affix any requisite stock transfer tax stamps to the Old Certificates surrendered, or provide funds for their purchase, or establish to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such taxes are not payable. From and after the Effective Date, the amount of capital represented by the shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock are reclassified under the terms hereof shall be the same as the amount of capital represented by the shares of Old Common Stock so reclassified, until thereafter reduced or increased in accordance with applicable law.
FIFTH: Voting: The holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation for each share held by such holders in accordance with Section 4 hereof.
SIXTH: The Corporation is to have perpetual existence.
SEVENTH: In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the board of directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation.
EIGHTH: Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of Delaware, as the by-laws of the Corporation may provide. The books of the Corporation may be kept (subject to any provision contained in any statute) outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the board of directors of the Corporation or in the by-laws of the Corporation. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot unless the by-laws of the Corporation shall so provide.
NINTH: The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in any manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.
TENTH: The Corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law, each director, officer or other authorized representative of the Corporation who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was an authorized representative of the Corporation, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements), judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

 
4



A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director; provided, however, that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director to the extent that such elimination or limitation of liability is expressly prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law as in effect at the time of the alleged breach of duty by such director.
Any repeal or modification of this Article by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or modification to which any person may be entitled under this Article. The rights conferred by this Article shall not be exclusive of any other right which the Corporation may now or hereafter grant, or any person may have or hereafter acquire, under any statute, provision of this Certificate of Incorporation, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The rights conferred by this Article shall continue as to any person who shall have ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.
For the purposes of this Article, the term "authorized representative" shall mean a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or of any subsidiary of the Corporation, or a trustee, custodian, administrator, committeeman or fiduciary of any employee benefit plan established and maintained by the Corporation or by any subsidiary of the Corporation, or a person who is or was serving another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in any of the foregoing capacities at the request of the Corporation.

NOW, THEREFORE, to effect the Amending Resolutions, Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:

Except as otherwise provided by law or this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended from time to time (this "Certificate of Incorporation"), the holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock, shall have all the same rights and privileges as Common Stock, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation on the following basis: (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote, and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to ten votes.
Each share of Class B Common Stock may also be converted, at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, consolidations, recapitalizations and reorganizations). Each holder of Class B Common Stock that desires to convert its shares of Class B Common Stock, into shares of Class A Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class B Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date.
At the option of the holders of fifty-one (51%) percent of the shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock, voting as a class, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be converted (the "Class B Conversion") into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, consolidations, recaptializations, reorganizations or other like occurrences). All holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock, then outstanding shall be given at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the date fixed (the "Conversion Date") and place designated by the Corporation for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph. Such notice shall be sent by first-class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's address last shown on the records of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock by the Conversion Date. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the

record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date; provided, however, that if such certificate or certificates are not surrendered by such holder by the Conversion Date, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the Conversion Date and such holder thereafter shall be deemed to have a right to receive only such number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock shall be converted in accordance herewith.
Upon the effectiveness (the "Effective Date") of the Certificate of Amendment filed by the Corporation on September 18, 2003, each five (5) shares of Class A and B Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date (the "Old Common Stock") shall be converted into one (1) share of Class A and B Common Stock, respectively (the "New Common Stock"), subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below. A holder of such five (5) shares shall be entitled to receive, upon surrender of a stock certificate or stock certificates representing such Old Common Stock (the "Old Certificates," whether one or more) to the Corporation for cancellation, a certificate of certificates (the "New Certificates," whether one or more) representing the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock formerly represented by such Old Certificates so surrendered are reclassified under the terms hereof. No certificates representing fractional share interests in New Common Stock will be issued, and no such fractional share interest will entitle the holder thereof to vote, or to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation. In lieu of such fractional shares, each holder of Class Old Common Stock who or that would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of such common stock upon surrender of such holder's Old Certificates will be entitled to receive one sole share of such common stock. If more than one Old Certificate shall be surrendered at one time for the account of the same stockholder, the number of full shares of New Common Stock for which New Certificates shall be issued shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares represented by the Old Certificates so surrendered.

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, a series of Preferred Stock be, and hereby is, created, consisting of 20 shares, par value of $0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), which Series A Preferred Stock shall have the voting rights, designations, powers, preferences, relative and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth as follows:
1.   Dividend Rights.  The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, but only out of funds that are legally available therefor, at the rate of 10% of the Series A Original Issue Price (as defined below) per annum on each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares). The original issue price of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be $500,000 per share (the "Series A Original Issue Price"). For any share of Series A Preferred Stock, such dividends shall begin to accrue commencing upon the first date such share is issued and becomes outstanding (the "Original Issue Date") and shall be payable in

 



cash or, at the Corporation's option, by converting the cash amount of such dividends into Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), based on the value of the Class A Common Stock equal to (i) so long as the sum of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued by the Corporation that would be integrated with the other shares of Class A Common Stock issued under this Paragraph 1 under the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market plus the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued under this Paragraph 1 does not exceed 5,366,529 shares (as shall be adjusted for stock splits), the price determined by the daily volume weighted average price per share of the Class A Common Stock on its principal trading market as reported by Bloomberg Financial L.P. (the "VWAP") for the five (5) day Trading Day (as defined below) period ending on the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately preceding the Dividend Payment Date (as defined below), of the Corporation, and (ii) thereafter, the greater of the Book Value Per Share (as defined below) or Market Value Per Share (as defined below) (the greater of those two amounts, the "Market Price"), as measured on the Original Issue Date for the initial issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with any shares of Series A Preferred Stock that would be integrated under the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The dividends shall be payable in arrears (a) first, on the earlier of (x) September 30, 2010 or (y) the last day of the calendar quarter during which the Corporation ceases to be contractually prohibited from paying such dividends, and thereafter (b) quarterly on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning in the calendar quarter following such initial dividend payment date and continuing until such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemed (each, a "Dividend Payment Date"), provided, that, if any such Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day (as defined below), then any such dividend shall be payable on the next Business Day. Such dividends shall accrue day-by-day and shall be cumulative, whether or not declared by the Board of Directors and whether or not there shall be funds legally available for the payment of dividends. The term "Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the New York, New York are authorized or required by law to be closed. Until it has paid all dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock as contemplated in this Certificate of Designations, the Corporation may not pay dividends on the Class A Common Stock, the Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation (the "Class B Common Stock" and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock") or any other stock of the Corporation hereafter created that is junior in terms of dividend rights, redemption or liquidation preference to the Series A Preferred Stock (together with the Common Stock, "Junior Stock"). The term "Trading Day" means any day on which the Class A Common Stock is traded on its principal market; provided that the "Trading Day" shall not include any day on which the principal market is open for trading for less than 4.5 hours. The terms "Book Value Per Share" and "Market Value Per Share" shall be determined in accordance with the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market, as in effect on the date of this Certificate of Designations.
2.   Voting Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by law, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not have the right to vote on matters brought before the stockholders of the Corporation.
3.   Liquidation Rights.  Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Stock, subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock that may from time-to-time come into existence and which is expressly senior to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in

 
2



cash out of the assets of the Corporation an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to 100% of the Series A Original Issue Price (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares), plus accrued but unpaid dividends (the "Liquidation Preference"), for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such holder. If, upon any such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to make payment in full of the Liquidation Preference to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock, then such assets shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.
4.   Conversion Rights.  Except as otherwise provided herein or as required by law, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will have no rights with respect to the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock or any other security of the Corporation.
5.   Redemption.  The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Corporation at any time after the second anniversary of the Original Issue Date (the "Redemption Date") upon thirty (30) days advance written notice (a "Notice of Redemption") to the holder, for a price equal to One Hundred and Ten Percent (110%) of the Liquidation Preference (which Liquidation Preference shall include, for avoidance of doubt, all accrued but unpaid dividends payable to the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock for the period between the Notice of Redemption and the Redemption Date) (the "Callable Amount"), payable in cash or, at the Corporation's option, so long as the closing price of the Class A Common Stock is $2.18 or higher (as shall be adjusted for stock splits) for at least (90) consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Notice of Redemption, by converting such Callable Amount into Class A Common Stock at the Market Price, as measured on the Original Issue Date for the initial issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with any shares of Series A Preferred Stock that would be integrated under the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Corporation will indicate on a Notice of Redemption whether the Corporation will redeem the Series A Preferred Stock to be so redeemed in cash or, if so permitted under the immediately preceding sentence, in Class A Common Stock.
6.   Amendment.  None of the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in this Certificate of Designations or in the Certificate of Incorporation shall be amended in any manner that would alter or change the powers, preferences, rights or privileges of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least four-fifths of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class.
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the officers of the Corporation are authorized and are directed to file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate pursuant to Section 151(a) of the General Corporate Law setting forth these resolutions in order to establish the rights and preferences set forth in the Certificate of Designations associated with the Series A Preferred Stock.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS
OF
SERIES B JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK
OF
ACCESS INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES, Inc.
(Pursuant to Section 151 of the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware)
Access Integrated Technologies, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the "Corporation"), hereby certifies that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation as required by Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware at a meeting duly called and held on August 10, 2009.
RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of this Corporation (hereinafter called the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") in accordance with the provisions of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of this Corporation the Board of Directors hereby creates a series of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of the Corporation and hereby states the designation and number of shares, and fixes the relative rights, powers and preferences, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof as follows:
Section 1.   Designation and Amount.  The shares of such series shall be designated as "Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock" (the "Series B Preferred Stock") and the number of shares constituting the Series B Preferred Stock shall be 1,000,000. Such number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors; provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into Series B Preferred Stock.
Section 2.   Dividends and Distributions.
(A)   Subject to the prior and superior rights of the holders of any shares of any class or series of stock of this Corporation ranking prior and superior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of the Corporation and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock," and together with Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock"), of the Corporation, and of any other stock ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the first day of March, June, September and December in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly

 



Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of Series B Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $1.00 or (b) subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 1,000 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 1,000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series B Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(B)   The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section 2 immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock); provided that, in the event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on the Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of $1.00 per share on the Series B Preferred Stock shall nevertheless be payable on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.
(C)   Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

 
2



Section 3.   Voting Rights.  The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
(A)   Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 1,000 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(B)   Except as otherwise provided herein, in any other Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, or by law, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.
(C)   Except as set forth herein, or as otherwise provided by law, holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.
(D)   If, at the time of any annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors, the equivalent of six quarterly dividends (whether or not consecutive) payable on any share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock are in default, the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be increased by two. In addition to voting together with the holders of Common Stock for the election of other directors of the Corporation, the holders of record of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class to the exclusion of the holders of Common Stock, shall be entitled at such meeting of stockholders (and at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders), unless all dividends in arrears on the Series B Preferred Stock have been paid or declared and set apart for payment prior thereto, to vote for the election of two directors of the Corporation, the holders of any Series B Preferred Stock being entitled to cast a number of votes per share of Series B Preferred Stock as is specified in paragraph (A) of this Section 3. Each such additional director shall serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors, or until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify, or until his right to hold such office terminates pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(D). Until the default in payments of all dividends which permitted the election of said directors shall cease to exist, any director who shall have been so elected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(D) may be removed at any time, without cause, only by the affirmative vote of the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast for the election of any such director at a special meeting of such holders called for that purpose, and any vacancy thereby created may be filled

 
3



by the vote of such holders. If and when such default shall cease to exist, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be divested of the foregoing special voting rights, subject to revesting in the event of each and every subsequent like default in payments of dividends. Upon the termination of the foregoing special voting rights, the terms of office of all persons who may have been elected directors pursuant to said special voting rights shall forthwith terminate, and the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be reduced by two. The voting rights granted by this Section 3(D) shall be in addition to any other voting rights granted to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock in this Section 3.
Section 4.          Certain Restrictions.
(A)   Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not:
(i)   declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock;
(ii)   declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series B Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series B Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled;
(iii)   redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (both as to dividends and upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock; or
(iv)   redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes.
(B)   The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.
Section 5.          Reacquired Shares.  Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired

 
4



and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or in any other Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.
Section 6.          Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
(A)   Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, voluntary or otherwise no distribution shall be made (i) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have received an amount per share (the "Series B Liquidation Preference") equal to $10 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment, provided that the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of Common Stock, or (ii) to the holders of shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series B Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on the Series B Preferred Stock and all such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (i) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(B)   In the event, however, that there are not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the Series B Liquidation Preference and the liquidation preferences of all other classes and series of stock of the Corporation, if any, that rank on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock in respect thereof, then the assets available for such distribution shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of such parity shares in proportion to their respective liquidation preferences.
(C)   Neither the merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with another corporation nor the merger or consolidation of any other corporation into or with the Corporation shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 6.
Section 7.          Consolidation, Merger, etc.  In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common

 
5



Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
Section 8.          No Redemption.  The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable by the Corporation.
Section 9.          Rank.  The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, junior to all series of any other class of the Corporation's Preferred Stock, except to the extent that any such other series specifically provides that it shall rank on a parity with or junior to the Series B Preferred Stock.
Section 10.         Amendment.  At any time any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation shall not be further amended in any manner which would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class.
Section 11.          Fractional Shares.  Series B Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share that shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder's fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series B Preferred Stock.

2.   This Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Corporation amends Article FOURTH of the Corporation's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, by deleting the existing Article FOURTH in its entirety and substituting therefore a new Article FOURTH to read in its entirety as follows:
FOURTH:  CAPITALIZATION
Section 4.1          Authorized Shares.
Upon the effectiveness of the filing of the Certificate of Amendment to the Corporation's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), first containing this provision with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the "Effective Time"), the total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Five Million (105,000,000) shares as follows: (i) Ninety Million (90,000,000) shares of existing common stock, of which Seventy-Five Million (75,000,000) shares shall be existing Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Old Class A Common Stock"), and Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares shall be existing Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Old Class B Common Stock"); (ii) Ninety Million (90,000,000) shares of common stock, of which Seventy-Five Million (75,000,000) shares shall be Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares shall be Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the " Class B Common Stock," and together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock"); and (iii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which the Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution or resolutions to fix all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Preferred Stock permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and to divide the Preferred Stock into one or more class and/or classes and designate all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each class permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Upon the Effectiveness of the Reclassification (as defined below), the total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Five Million

 



(105,000,000) shares as follows: (i) Ninety Million (90,000,000) shares of common stock, of which Seventy-Five Million (75,000,000) shares shall be Class A Common Stock and Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares shall be Class B Common Stock; and (ii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock.
Section 4.2          Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock.
Except as otherwise provided by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall have all the same rights and privileges as Common Stock, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation on the following basis: (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote, and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to ten votes.
Each share of Class B Common Stock may also be converted, at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, consolidations, recapitalizations and reorganizations). Each holder of Class B Common Stock that desires to convert its shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class B Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date.
At the option of the holders of fifty-one (51%) percent of the shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock, voting as a class, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be converted (the "Class B Conversion") into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, consolidations, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other like occurrences). All holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock, then outstanding shall be given at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the date fixed (the "Conversion Date") and place designated by the Corporation for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph. Such notice shall be sent by first-class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's address last shown on the records of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock by the Conversion Date. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a

 
2



certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date; provided, however, that if such certificate or certificates are not surrendered by such holder by the Conversion Date, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the Conversion Date and such holder thereafter shall be deemed to have a right to receive only such number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock shall be converted in accordance herewith.
Section 4.3.          Reclassification.
Immediately following the Effective Time, (a) each share of Old Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified as and converted into and shall become one share of Class A Common Stock and (b) each share of Old Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified as and converted into and shall become one share of Class B Common Stock (the foregoing, collectively, the "Reclassification").
The Reclassification shall be deemed to occur immediately following the Effective Time (the "Effectiveness of the Reclassification"), regardless of when any certificate previously representing such shares of Old Class A Common Stock or Old Class B Common Stock, as the case may be (in each case, if such shares are held in certificated form), are physically surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively. Each certificate outstanding immediately prior to the Effectiveness of the Reclassification representing shares of Old Class A Common Stock or Old Class B Common Stock, as the case may be, shall, until surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for a certificate representing such new number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively, automatically represent from and after the Effectiveness of the Reclassification the reclassified number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, respectively.
Section 4.4.          Transfer Restrictions.

Section 4.4.2.          Transfer Restrictions.
(a)   From and after the Effective Date and prior to the Restriction Release Date, no Transfer shall be permitted, and any such purported Transfer shall be void ab initio, to the extent that after giving effect to such purported Transfer (or any series of Transfers of which such Transfer is a part), either (i) any Person or group of Persons shall become a Five Percent Shareholder, or (ii) the Percentage Stock Ownership interest in the Corporation of any Five Percent Shareholder shall be increased. The prior sentence is not intended to prevent the Corporation Securities from being DTC-eligible and shall not preclude the settlement of any transactions in the Corporation Securities entered into through the facilities of a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, provided, that if the settlement of the transaction would result in a Prohibited Transfer, such Transfer shall nonetheless be a Prohibited Transfer.
(b)   The restrictions contained in this Article 4 are for the purposes of reducing the risk that any "ownership change" (as defined in the Code) of the Corporation Securities may limit the Corporation's ability to utilize its Tax Benefits. In connection therewith, and to provide for effective policing of these provisions, a Restricted Holder who proposes to Acquire Corporation Securities (other than an Acquisition of Corporation Securities in an Exempt Transaction) shall, prior to the date of such proposed Acquisition, request in writing (a "Request") that the Board of Directors of the Corporation (or a committee thereof that has been appointed by the Board of Directors) review such proposed Acquisition and authorize or not authorize such proposed Acquisition in accordance with this Section 4.4.2(b) of Article 4. A Request shall be mailed or delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the Corporation's principal place of business, or telecopied to the Corporation's telecopier number at its principal place of business. Such Request shall be deemed to have been received by the Corporation when actually received by the Corporation. A Request shall include (i) the name, address and telephone number of the Restricted Holder, (ii) a description of the Restricted Holder's direct and indirect ownership of Corporation Securities, (iii) a description of the Corporation Securities that the Restricted Holder proposes to Acquire, (iv) the date on which such proposed Acquisition is expected to take place (or, if such Acquisition is proposed to be made by a Five Percent Shareholder in a transaction on a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, a statement to that effect), (v) the name of the proposed transferor of the Corporation Securities that the Restricted Holder proposes to Acquire (or, if such Acquisition is proposed to be made by a Five Percent Shareholder in a transaction on a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, a statement to that effect), and (vi) a request that the Board of Directors (or a committee thereof that has been appointed by the Board of Directors) authorize, if appropriate, such Acquisition pursuant to this Section 4.4.2(b) of Article 4. The Board of Directors may authorize an Acquisition by a Restricted Holder, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that, after taking into account the preservation of the Tax Benefits, such Acquisition would be in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders and, in such case, the restrictions set forth in Section 4.4.2(a) of this Article FOURTH shall not apply to such Acquisition. Any determination by the Board of Directors not to authorize a proposed Acquisition by a Restricted Holder shall cause such proposed Acquisition to be deemed a Prohibited Transfer. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, impose any conditions that it deems reasonable and appropriate in connection with authorizing any such Acquisition by a Restricted Holder. In addition, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, require such

 
7



representations from the Restricted Holder or such opinions of counsel to be rendered by counsel selected by the Board of Directors, in each case as to such matters as the Board of Directors may determine and, in each such case, the restrictions set forth in Section 4.4.2(a) of this Article FOURTH shall not apply to such Acquisition. Any Restricted Holder who makes a Request to the Board of Directors shall reimburse the Corporation, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by the Corporation with respect to any proposed Acquisition of Corporation Securities, including, without limitation, the Corporation's costs and expenses incurred in determining whether to authorize the proposed Acquisition, which costs may include, but are not limited to, any expenses of counsel and/or tax advisors engaged by the Board of Directors to advise the Board of Directors or deliver an opinion thereto.
Section 4.4.3.          Treatment of Excess Securities.
(a)   No employee or agent of the Corporation shall record any Prohibited Transfer, and the purported transferee of a Prohibited Transfer (the "Purported Transferee") shall not be recognized as a stockholder of the Corporation for any purpose whatsoever in respect of the Corporation Securities that are the subject of the Prohibited Transfer (the "Excess Securities"). The Purported Transferee shall not be entitled with respect to such Excess Securities to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation, including, without limitation, the right to vote such Excess Securities and to receive dividends or distributions, whether liquidating or otherwise, in respect thereof. Once the Excess Securities have been acquired in a Transfer that is not a Prohibited Transfer, such Corporation Securities shall cease to be Excess Securities.
(b)   If the Board of Directors determines that a Prohibited Transfer has been recorded by an agent or employee of the Corporation notwithstanding the prohibition in Section 4.4.3(a) of this Article FOURTH, such recording and the Prohibited Transfer shall be void ab initio and have no legal effect and, upon written demand by the Corporation, the Purported Transferee shall transfer or cause to be transferred any certificate or other evidence of ownership of the Excess Securities within the Purported Transferee's possession or control, together with any dividends or other distributions that were received by the Purported Transferee from the Corporation with respect to the Excess Securities (the "Prohibited Distributions"), to an agent designated by the Board of Directors (the "Agent"). In the event of an attempted Prohibited Transfer involving the purchase or Acquisition of Corporation Securities in violation of this Article FOURTH by a Restricted Holder, the Agent shall thereupon sell to a buyer or buyers, which may include the Corporation or the purported transferor, the Excess Securities transferred to it in one or more arm's-length transactions (including over a national securities exchange or national securities quotation system on which the Corporation Securities may be traded); provided, however, that the Agent, in its sole discretion, shall effect such sale or sales in an orderly fashion and shall not be required to effect any such sale within any specific time frame if, in the Agent's discretion, such sale or sales would disrupt the market for the Corporation Securities, would adversely affect the value of the Corporation Securities or would be in violation of applicable securities laws. If the Purported Transferee has resold the Excess Securities before receiving the Corporation's demand to surrender the Excess Securities to the Agent, the Purported Transferee shall be deemed to have sold the Excess Securities for the Agent, and shall be required to transfer to the Agent any Prohibited Distributions and proceeds of such sale, except to the extent that the Corporation grants written permission to the Purported Transferee to retain a portion of such sales proceeds not exceeding the amount that the Purported

 
8



Transferee would have received from the Agent pursuant to Section 4.4.3(c) of this Article FOURTH if the Agent, rather than the Purported Transferee, had resold the Excess Securities.
(c)   The Agent shall apply any proceeds of a sale by it of Excess Securities and, if the Purported Transferee had previously resold the Excess Securities, any amounts received by it from a Purported Transferee, as follows: (i) first, to reimburse itself to the extent necessary to cover its costs and expenses incurred in accordance with its duties hereunder; (ii) second, to reimburse the Purported Transferee for the amounts paid by the Purported Transferee for the Excess Securities (or in the case of any Prohibited Transfer by gift, devise or inheritance or any other Prohibited Transfer without consideration, the fair market value, calculated on the basis of the closing market price for the Corporation Securities on the day before the Prohibited Transfer), and (iii) third, the remainder, if any, to the original transferor, or, if the original transferor cannot be readily identified, to an entity designated by the Corporation's Board of Directors that is described in Section 501(c) of the Code, contributions to which must be eligible for deduction under each of Sections 170(b)(1)(A), 2055 and 2522 of the Code. The recourse of any Purported Transferee with respect of any Prohibited Transfer shall be limited to the amount payable to the Purported Transferee pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 4.4.3(c) of this Article FOURTH. Except as may be required by law, in no event shall the proceeds of any sale of Excess Securities pursuant to this Article FOURTH inure to the benefit of the Corporation or the Agent, except to the extent used to cover expenses incurred by the Agent in performing its duties hereunder.
(d)   In the event of any Transfer which does not involve a transfer of securities of the Corporation within the meaning of Delaware law ("Securities," and individually, a "Security") but which would cause a Five Percent Shareholder to violate a restriction on Transfers provided for in this Article FOURTH, the application of Section 4.4.3(b) and Section 4.4.3(c) shall be modified as described in this Section 4.4.3(d). In such case, no such Five Percent Shareholder shall be required to dispose of any interest that is not a Security, but such Five Percent Shareholder and/or any Person whose ownership of Securities is attributed to such Five Percent Shareholder shall be deemed to have disposed of and shall be required to dispose of sufficient Securities (which Securities shall be disposed of in the inverse order in which they were acquired) to cause such Five Percent Shareholder, following such disposition, not to be in violation of this Article FOURTH. Such disposition shall be deemed to occur simultaneously with the Transfer giving rise to the application of this provision, and such number of Securities that are deemed to be disposed of shall be considered Excess Securities and shall be disposed of through the Agent as provided in Section 4.4.3(b) and Section 4.4.3(c), except that the maximum aggregate amount payable either to such Five Percent Shareholder, or to such other Person that was the direct holder of such Excess Securities, in connection with such sale shall be the fair market value of such Excess Securities at the time of the purported Transfer. All expenses incurred by the Agent in disposing of such Excess Stock shall be paid out of any amounts due such Five Percent Shareholder or such other Person. The purpose of this Section 4.4.3(d) is to extend the restrictions in Section 4.4.2(a) and Section 4.4.3(a) to situations in which there is a Five Percent Shareholder without a direct Transfer of Securities, and this Section 4.4.3(d), along with the other provisions of this Article FOURTH, shall be interpreted to produce the same results, with differences as the context requires, as a direct Transfer of Corporation Securities.

 
9



(e)   If the Purported Transferee fails to surrender the Excess Securities or the proceeds of a sale thereof to the Agent within thirty (30) days from the date on which the Corporation makes a demand pursuant to Section 4.4.3(b) of this Article FOURTH or any written demand with respect to a deemed disposition pursuant to Section 4.4.3(d) of this Article FOURTH, then the Corporation may take such actions as it deems necessary to enforce the provisions hereof, including the institution of legal proceedings to compel such surrender.
(f)   If any Person shall knowingly violate, or knowingly cause any other Person under control of such Person (a "Controlled Person") to violate this Article FOURTH, then that Person and any Controlled Person shall be jointly and severally liable for, and shall pay to the Corporation, such amount as will, after taking account of all taxes imposed with respect to the receipt or accrual of such amount and all costs incurred by the Corporation as a result of such violation, put the Corporation in the same financial position as it would have been in had such violation not occurred.
Section 4.4.4.          Legends; Compliance.
(a)   All certificates reflecting Corporation Securities on or after the Effective Date shall, until the Restriction Release Date, bear a conspicuous legend in substantially the following form:
THE TRANSFER OF SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE FOURTH OF THE RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF ACCESS INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AS AMENDED AND IN EFFECT FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION UPON REQUEST.
(b)   The Corporation shall have the power to make appropriate notations upon its stock transfer records and to instruct any transfer agent, registrar, securities intermediary or depository with respect to the requirements of this Article FOURTH for any uncertificated Corporation Securities or Corporation Securities held in an indirect holding system. As a condition to the registration of the Transfer of any Stock, any Person who is a beneficial, legal or record holder of Stock, and any proposed transferee of such Stock and any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with the proposed transferee of such Stock, shall provide such information as the Corporation may request from time to time in order to determine compliance with this Article FOURTH or the status of the Tax Benefits of the Corporation.
(c)   Nothing contained in this Article FOURTH shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation to take such other action to the extent permitted by law as it deems necessary or advisable to preserve the Corporation's Tax Benefits. The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall have the power to determine all matters necessary for determining compliance with this Article 4, including, without limitation, determining (i) the identification of Five Percent Shareholders and Restricted Holders, (ii) whether a Transfer or proposed Transfer is a Prohibited Transfer, (iii) the Percentage Stock Ownership in the Corporation of any Five Percent Shareholders and Restricted Holders, (iv) whether an instrument constitutes a Corporation Security, (v) the amount (or fair market value) due to a Purported Transferee, (vi) the interpretation of the provisions of this Article FOURTH, and (vii) any other

 
10



matters which the Board of Directors deems relevant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for the purposes of determining the existence and identity of, and the amount of Corporation Securities owned by, any Person or group of Persons, the Corporation and the Board of Directors are entitled to rely conclusively on (a) the existence and absence of filings of Schedules 13D or 13G under the Exchange Act (or any similar schedules) as of any date, and (b) its actual knowledge of the ownership of the Corporation Securities. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Article FOURTH, including any definition used herein, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of such provisions with respect to any situation based on its reasonable belief, understanding or knowledge of the circumstances. In the event that this Article FOURTH requires an action by the Board of Directors but fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such action, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of this Article FOURTH. All such actions, calculations, interpretations and determinations that are done or made by the Board of Directors in good faith shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Corporation, the Agent, and all other parties to a Transfer; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may delegate all or any portion of its duties and powers under this Article FOURTH to a committee of the Board of Directors as it deems advisable or necessary.
(d)   Nothing contained in this Article FOURTH shall be construed to give any Person other than the Corporation or the Agent any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Article FOURTH. This Article FOURTH shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Corporation and the Agent.
(e)   With regard to any power, remedy or right provided herein or otherwise available to the Corporation or the Agent provided under this Article FOURTH, (i) no waiver will be effective unless expressly contained in a writing signed by the waiving party; and (ii) no alternation, modification or impairment will be implied by reason of any previous waiver, extension of time, delay or omission in exercise, or other indulgence.
(f)   If any provision of this Article FOURTH or the application of any such provision to any Person or under any circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Article FOURTH.

CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT
TO
FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
ACCESS INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
The undersigned, being the President of Access Integrated Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the "DGCL"), does hereby certify as follows:
1.   Pursuant to a unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board"), the Board adopted resolutions (the "Amending Resolutions") to further amend the Corporation's Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on November 14, 2003;
2.   Pursuant to a majority vote of the Corporation's Shareholders in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL, the holders of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock voted in favor of the Amending Resolutions; and
3.   The Amending Resolutions were duly adopted in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL.
NOW, THEREFORE, to effect the Amending Resolutions, Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:
"FOURTH: Capitalization: The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Five Million (105,000,000) shares as follows: (i) Ninety Million (90,000,000) shares of common stock, of which Seventy-Five Million (75,000,000) shares shall be Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares shall be Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"); and (ii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which the Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution or resolutions to fix all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Preferred Stock permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and to divide the Preferred Stock into one or more class and/or classes and designate all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each class permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Except as otherwise provided by law or this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended from time to time (this "Certificate of Incorporation"), the holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock, shall have all the





same rights and privileges as Common Stock, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation on the following basis: (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote, and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to ten votes.
Each share of Class B Common Stock may also be converted, at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, consolidations, recapitalizations and reorganizations). Each holder of Class B Common Stock that desires to convert its shares of Class B Common Stock, into shares of Class A Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class B Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date.
At the option of the holders of fifty-one (51%) percent of the shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock, voting as a class, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be converted (the "Class B Conversion") into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, consolidations, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other like occurrences). All holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock, then outstanding shall be given at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the date fixed (the "Conversion Date") and place designated by the Corporation for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph. Such notice shall be sent by first-class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's address last shown on the records of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock by the Conversion Date. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date; provided, however, that if such certificate or certificates are not surrendered by such holder by the Conversion Date, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the Conversion Date and such holder

thereafter shall be deemed to have a right to receive only such number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock shall be converted in accordance herewith.
Except as specifically set forth herein, the Certificate of Incorporation shall not be amended, modified or otherwise altered by this Certificate of Amendment.

1.   Pursuant to a unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board"), the Board adopted resolutions (the "Amending Resolutions") to further amend the Corporation's Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on November 14, 2003;
2.   Pursuant to a majority vote of the Corporation's Shareholders in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL, the holders of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock voted in favor of the Amending Resolutions; and
3.   The Amending Resolutions were duly adopted in accordance with Section 242 of the DGCL.
NOW, THEREFORE, to effect the Amending Resolutions, Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:
"FOURTH: Capitalization: The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is One Hundred Thirty-Five Million (135,000,000) shares as follows: (i) One Hundred Eighteen Million, Seven Hundred Fifty-Nine Thousand (118,759,000) shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"); (ii) One Million Two Hundred Forty-One Thousand (1,241,000) shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"); and (iii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which the Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution or resolutions to fix all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Preferred Stock permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and to divide the Preferred Stock into one or more class and/or classes and designate all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each class permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Except as otherwise provided by law or this Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (this "Certificate of Incorporation"), the holders of the Class A

 



Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock, shall have all the same rights and privileges as Common Stock, except that the holders of Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders of the Corporation on the following basis: (i) each share of the Class A Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote, and (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to ten votes.
Each share of Class B Common Stock may also be converted, at any time at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, consolidations, recapitalizations and reorganizations). Each holder of Class B Common Stock that desires to convert its shares of Class B Common Stock, into shares of Class A Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock and shall give written notice to the Corporation at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class B Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date.
At the option of the holders of fifty-one (51%) percent of the shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock, voting as a class, each share of Class B Common Stock shall be converted (the "Class B Conversion") into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock (subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits, stock dividends, consolidations, recaptializations, reorganizations or other like occurrences). All holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock, then outstanding shall be given at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the date fixed (the "Conversion Date") and place designated by the Corporation for mandatory conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock, pursuant to this paragraph. Such notice shall be sent by first-class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's address last shown on the records of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock. Each holder of Class B Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Class B Common Stock by the Conversion Date. Thereupon the Corporation shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, together with a cash adjustment of any fraction of a share as hereinafter provided. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class B Common Stock to be converted, and the person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class A Common Stock on such date; provided, however, that if such certificate or certificates are not surrendered by such holder by the Conversion Date, such

 
2



conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the Conversion Date and such holder thereafter shall be deemed to have a right to receive only such number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Class B Common Stock shall be converted in accordance herewith.
Upon the effectiveness (the "Effective Date") of the Certificate of Amendment filed by the Corporation on September 18, 2003, each five (5) shares of Class A and B Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date (the "Old Common Stock") shall be converted into one (1) share of Class A and B Common Stock, respectively (the "New Common Stock"), subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below. A holder of such five (5) shares shall be entitled to receive, upon surrender of a stock certificate or stock certificates representing such Old Common Stock (the "Old Certificates," whether one or more) to the Corporation for cancellation, a certificate of certificates (the "New Certificates," whether one or more) representing the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock formerly represented by such Old Certificates so surrendered are reclassified under the terms hereof. No certificates representing fractional share interests in New Common Stock will be issued, and no such fractional share interest will entitle the holder thereof to vote, or to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation. In lieu of such fractional shares, each holder of Class Old Common Stock who or that would otherwise have been entitled to a fraction of a share of such common stock upon surrender of such holder's Old Certificates will be entitled to receive one sole share of such common stock. If more than one Old Certificate shall be surrendered at one time for the account of the same stockholder, the number of full shares of New Common Stock for which New Certificates shall be issued shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares represented by the Old Certificates so surrendered. In the event that the Corporation determines that a holder of Old Certificates has not tendered all his or her certificates for exchange, the Corporation shall carry forward any fractional share until all certificates of that holder have been presented for exchange such that any stockholder will not be entitled to receive more than one share of New Common Stock in lieu of fractional shares. If any New Certificate is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Old Certificates surrendered for exchange are issued, the Old Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and registered in such name or names as such holder may direct, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the Third Amended and Restated Stockholders' Agreement, as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, among the Corporation and certain of its stockholders to the extent such designation shall involve a transfer, and the person or persons requesting such exchange shall affix any requisite stock transfer tax stamps to the Old Certificates surrendered, or provide funds for their purchase, or establish to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such taxes are not payable. From and after the Effective Date, the amount of capital represented by the shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock are reclassified under the terms hereof shall be the same as the amount of capital represented by the shares of Old Common Stock so reclassified, until thereafter reduced or increased in accordance with applicable law."
Except as specifically set forth herein, the Certificate of Incorporation shall not be amended, modified or otherwise altered by this Certificate of Amendment.

Section 4.4.2.          Transfer Restrictions.
(a)   From and after the Effective Date and prior to the Restriction Release Date, no Transfer shall be permitted, and any such purported Transfer shall be void ab initio, to the extent that after giving effect to such purported Transfer (or any series of Transfers of which such Transfer is a part), either (i) any Person or group of Persons shall become a Five Percent Shareholder, or (ii) the Percentage Stock Ownership interest in the Corporation of any Five Percent Shareholder shall be increased. The prior sentence is not intended to prevent the Corporation Securities from being DTC-eligible and shall not preclude the settlement of any transactions in the Corporation Securities entered into through the facilities of a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, provided, that if the settlement of the transaction would result in a Prohibited Transfer, such Transfer shall nonetheless be a Prohibited Transfer.
(b)   The restrictions contained in this Article 4 are for the purposes of reducing the risk that any "ownership change" (as defined in the Code) of the Corporation Securities may limit the Corporation's ability to utilize its Tax Benefits. In connection therewith, and to provide for effective policing of these provisions, a Restricted Holder who proposes to Acquire Corporation Securities (other than an Acquisition of Corporation Securities in an Exempt Transaction) shall, prior to the date of such proposed Acquisition, request in writing (a "Request") that the Board of Directors of the Corporation (or a committee thereof that has been appointed by the Board of Directors) review such proposed Acquisition and authorize or not authorize such proposed Acquisition in accordance with this Section 4.4.2(b) of Article 4. A Request shall be mailed or delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation at the Corporation's

 
6



principal place of business, or telecopied to the Corporation's telecopier number at its principal place of business. Such Request shall be deemed to have been received by the Corporation when actually received by the Corporation. A Request shall include (i) the name, address and telephone number of the Restricted Holder, (ii) a description of the Restricted Holder's direct and indirect ownership of Corporation Securities, (iii) a description of the Corporation Securities that the Restricted Holder proposes to Acquire, (iv) the date on which such proposed Acquisition is expected to take place (or, if such Acquisition is proposed to be made by a Five Percent Shareholder in a transaction on a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, a statement to that effect), (v) the name of the proposed transferor of the Corporation Securities that the Restricted Holder proposes to Acquire (or, if such Acquisition is proposed to be made by a Five Percent Shareholder in a transaction on a national securities exchange or any national securities quotation system, a statement to that effect), and (vi) a request that the Board of Directors (or a committee thereof that has been appointed by the Board of Directors) authorize, if appropriate, such Acquisition pursuant to this Section 4.4.2(b) of Article 4. The Board of Directors may authorize an Acquisition by a Restricted Holder, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that, after taking into account the preservation of the Tax Benefits, such Acquisition would be in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders and, in such case, the restrictions set forth in Section 4.4.2(a) of this Article FOURTH shall not apply to such Acquisition. Any determination by the Board of Directors not to authorize a proposed Acquisition by a Restricted Holder shall cause such proposed Acquisition to be deemed a Prohibited Transfer. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, impose any conditions that it deems reasonable and appropriate in connection with authorizing any such Acquisition by a Restricted Holder. In addition, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, require such representations from the Restricted Holder or such opinions of counsel to be rendered by counsel selected by the Board of Directors, in each case as to such matters as the Board of Directors may determine and, in each such case, the restrictions set forth in Section 4.4.2(a) of this Article FOURTH shall not apply to such Acquisition. Any Restricted Holder who makes a Request to the Board of Directors shall reimburse the Corporation, on demand, for all costs and expenses incurred by the Corporation with respect to any proposed Acquisition of Corporation Securities, including, without limitation, the Corporation's costs and expenses incurred in determining whether to authorize the proposed Acquisition, which costs may include, but are not limited to, any expenses of counsel and/or tax advisors engaged by the Board of Directors to advise the Board of Directors or deliver an opinion thereto.
Section 4.4.3.          Treatment of Excess Securities.
(a)   No employee or agent of the Corporation shall record any Prohibited Transfer, and the purported transferee of a Prohibited Transfer (the "Purported Transferee") shall not be recognized as a stockholder of the Corporation for any purpose whatsoever in respect of the Corporation Securities that are the subject of the Prohibited Transfer (the "Excess Securities"). The Purported Transferee shall not be entitled with respect to such Excess Securities to any rights of a stockholder of the Corporation, including, without limitation, the right to vote such Excess Securities and to receive dividends or distributions, whether liquidating or otherwise, in respect thereof. Once the Excess Securities have been acquired in a Transfer that is not a Prohibited Transfer, such Corporation Securities shall cease to be Excess Securities.

 
7



(b)   If the Board of Directors determines that a Prohibited Transfer has been recorded by an agent or employee of the Corporation notwithstanding the prohibition in Section 4.4.3(a) of this Article FOURTH, such recording and the Prohibited Transfer shall be void ab initio and have no legal effect and, upon written demand by the Corporation, the Purported Transferee shall transfer or cause to be transferred any certificate or other evidence of ownership of the Excess Securities within the Purported Transferee's possession or control, together with any dividends or other distributions that were received by the Purported Transferee from the Corporation with respect to the Excess Securities (the "Prohibited Distributions"), to an agent designated by the Board of Directors (the "Agent"). In the event of an attempted Prohibited Transfer involving the purchase or Acquisition of Corporation Securities in violation of this Article FOURTH by a Restricted Holder, the Agent shall thereupon sell to a buyer or buyers, which may include the Corporation or the purported transferor, the Excess Securities transferred to it in one or more arm's-length transactions (including over a national securities exchange or national securities quotation system on which the Corporation Securities may be traded); provided, however, that the Agent, in its sole discretion, shall effect such sale or sales in an orderly fashion and shall not be required to effect any such sale within any specific time frame if, in the Agent's discretion, such sale or sales would disrupt the market for the Corporation Securities, would adversely affect the value of the Corporation Securities or would be in violation of applicable securities laws. If the Purported Transferee has resold the Excess Securities before receiving the Corporation's demand to surrender the Excess Securities to the Agent, the Purported Transferee shall be deemed to have sold the Excess Securities for the Agent, and shall be required to transfer to the Agent any Prohibited Distributions and proceeds of such sale, except to the extent that the Corporation grants written permission to the Purported Transferee to retain a portion of such sales proceeds not exceeding the amount that the Purported Transferee would have received from the Agent pursuant to Section 4.4.3(c) of this Article FOURTH if the Agent, rather than the Purported Transferee, had resold the Excess Securities.
(c)   The Agent shall apply any proceeds of a sale by it of Excess Securities and, if the Purported Transferee had previously resold the Excess Securities, any amounts received by it from a Purported Transferee, as follows: (i) first, to reimburse itself to the extent necessary to cover its costs and expenses incurred in accordance with its duties hereunder; (ii) second, to reimburse the Purported Transferee for the amounts paid by the Purported Transferee for the Excess Securities (or in the case of any Prohibited Transfer by gift, devise or inheritance or any other Prohibited Transfer without consideration, the fair market value, calculated on the basis of the closing market price for the Corporation Securities on the day before the Prohibited Transfer), and (iii) third, the remainder, if any, to the original transferor, or, if the original transferor cannot be readily identified, to an entity designated by the Corporation's Board of Directors that is described in Section 501(c) of the Code, contributions to which must be eligible for deduction under each of Sections 170(b)(1)(A), 2055 and 2522 of the Code. The recourse of any Purported Transferee with respect of any Prohibited Transfer shall be limited to the amount payable to the Purported Transferee pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 4.4.3(c) of this Article FOURTH. Except as may be required by law, in no event shall the proceeds of any sale of Excess Securities pursuant to this Article FOURTH inure to the benefit of the Corporation or the Agent, except to the extent used to cover expenses incurred by the Agent in performing its duties hereunder.

(d)   In the event of any Transfer which does not involve a transfer of securities of the Corporation within the meaning of Delaware law ("Securities," and individually, a "Security") but which would cause a Five Percent Shareholder to violate a restriction on Transfers provided for in this Article FOURTH, the application of Section 4.4.3(b) and Section 4.4.3(c) shall be modified as described in this Section 4.4.3(d). In such case, no such Five Percent Shareholder shall be required to dispose of any interest that is not a Security, but such Five Percent Shareholder and/or any Person whose ownership of Securities is attributed to such Five Percent Shareholder shall be deemed to have disposed of and shall be required to dispose of sufficient Securities (which Securities shall be disposed of in the inverse order in which they were acquired) to cause such Five Percent Shareholder, following such disposition, not to be in violation of this Article FOURTH. Such disposition shall be deemed to occur simultaneously with the Transfer giving rise to the application of this provision, and such number of Securities that are deemed to be disposed of shall be considered Excess Securities and shall be disposed of through the Agent as provided in Section 4.4.3(b) and Section 4.4.3(c), except that the maximum aggregate amount payable either to such Five Percent Shareholder, or to such other Person that was the direct holder of such Excess Securities, in connection with such sale shall be the fair market value of such Excess Securities at the time of the purported Transfer. All expenses incurred by the Agent in disposing of such Excess Stock shall be paid out of any amounts due such Five Percent Shareholder or such other Person. The purpose of this Section 4.4.3(d) is to extend the restrictions in Section 4.4.2(a) and Section 4.4.3(a) to situations in which there is a Five Percent Shareholder without a direct Transfer of Securities, and this Section 4.4.3(d), along with the other provisions of this Article FOURTH, shall be interpreted to produce the same results, with differences as the context requires, as a direct Transfer of Corporation Securities.
(e)   If the Purported Transferee fails to surrender the Excess Securities or the proceeds of a sale thereof to the Agent within thirty (30) days from the date on which the Corporation makes a demand pursuant to Section 4.4.3(b) of this Article FOURTH or any written demand with respect to a deemed disposition pursuant to Section 4.4.3(d) of this Article FOURTH, then the Corporation may take such actions as it deems necessary to enforce the provisions hereof, including the institution of legal proceedings to compel such surrender.
(f)   If any Person shall knowingly violate, or knowingly cause any other Person under control of such Person (a "Controlled Person") to violate this Article FOURTH, then that Person and any Controlled Person shall be jointly and severally liable for, and shall pay to the Corporation, such amount as will, after taking account of all taxes imposed with respect to the receipt or accrual of such amount and all costs incurred by the Corporation as a result of such violation, put the Corporation in the same financial position as it would have been in had such violation not occurred.
Section 4.4.4.          Legends; Compliance.
(a)   All certificates reflecting Corporation Securities on or after the Effective Date shall, until the Restriction Release Date, bear a conspicuous legend in substantially the following form:
THE TRANSFER OF SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE FOURTH OF THE RESTATED

CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF CINEDIGM CORP. AS AMENDED AND IN EFFECT FROM TIME TO TIME, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION UPON REQUEST.
(b)   The Corporation shall have the power to make appropriate notations upon its stock transfer records and to instruct any transfer agent, registrar, securities intermediary or depository with respect to the requirements of this Article FOURTH for any uncertificated Corporation Securities or Corporation Securities held in an indirect holding system. As a condition to the registration of the Transfer of any Stock, any Person who is a beneficial, legal or record holder of Stock, and any proposed transferee of such Stock and any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with the proposed transferee of such Stock, shall provide such information as the Corporation may request from time to time in order to determine compliance with this Article FOURTH or the status of the Tax Benefits of the Corporation.
(c)   Nothing contained in this Article FOURTH shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation to take such other action to the extent permitted by law as it deems necessary or advisable to preserve the Corporation's Tax Benefits. The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall have the power to determine all matters necessary for determining compliance with this Article 4, including, without limitation, determining (i) the identification of Five Percent Shareholders and Restricted Holders, (ii) whether a Transfer or proposed Transfer is a Prohibited Transfer, (iii) the Percentage Stock Ownership in the Corporation of any Five Percent Shareholders and Restricted Holders, (iv) whether an instrument constitutes a Corporation Security, (v) the amount (or fair market value) due to a Purported Transferee, (vi) the interpretation of the provisions of this Article FOURTH, and (vii) any other matters which the Board of Directors deems relevant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for the purposes of determining the existence and identity of, and the amount of Corporation Securities owned by, any Person or group of Persons, the Corporation and the Board of Directors are entitled to rely conclusively on (a) the existence and absence of filings of Schedules 13D or 13G under the Exchange Act (or any similar schedules) as of any date, and (b) its actual knowledge of the ownership of the Corporation Securities. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Article FOURTH, including any definition used herein, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of such provisions with respect to any situation based on its reasonable belief, understanding or knowledge of the circumstances. In the event that this Article FOURTH requires an action by the Board of Directors but fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such action, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of this Article FOURTH. All such actions, calculations, interpretations and determinations that are done or made by the Board of Directors in good faith shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Corporation, the Agent, and all other parties to a Transfer; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may delegate all or any portion of its duties and powers under this Article FOURTH to a committee of the Board of Directors as it deems advisable or necessary.
(d)   Nothing contained in this Article FOURTH shall be construed to give any Person other than the Corporation or the Agent any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Article FOURTH. This Article FOURTH shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Corporation and the Agent.

 
10



(e)   With regard to any power, remedy or right provided herein or otherwise available to the Corporation or the Agent provided under this Article FOURTH, (i) no waiver will be effective unless expressly contained in a writing signed by the waiving party; and (ii) no alternation, modification or impairment will be implied by reason of any previous waiver, extension of time, delay or omission in exercise, or other indulgence.
(f)   If any provision of this Article FOURTH or the application of any such provision to any Person or under any circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Article FOURTH."
Except as specifically set forth herein, the Certificate of Incorporation shall not be amended, modified or otherwise altered by this Certificate of Amendment.

"Section 4.1  Authorized Shares .
The total number of shares of capital stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is thirty-seven million, two hundred forty-one thousand (37,241,000) shares as follows: (i) twenty-two million, two hundred forty-one thousand (22,241,000) shares of common stock, of which twenty-one million (21,000,000) shares shall be Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), and one million, two hundred forty-one thousand (1,241,000) shares shall be Class B Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock", and together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock"); and (ii) Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which the Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution or resolutions to fix all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Preferred Stock permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and to divide the Preferred Stock into one or more class and/or classes and designate all of the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each class permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Except as specifically set forth herein, the Certificate of Incorporation shall not be amended, modified or otherwise altered by this Certificate of Amendment.
