There is no restriction on the alienability of the securities to be registered, nor is there any provision included in the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws discriminating against any existing or prospective holder of such securities as a result of such security holder owning a substantial amount of securities. Dataram Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws do not contain any provisions which would have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of Dataram Corporation or that would operate only in respect to extraordinary corporate transaction involving Dataram Corporation, such as a merger, reorganization, tender offer, sale or transfer of substantially all assets or liquidations.
