Number of Shares and Designations. 100 shares of the preferred stock, $.0001 par value, (the "Preferred Stock") of the Corporation are hereby constituted as a series of preferred stock of the Corporation designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock").  2. Dividend Provisions. Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence, the holders of share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of any assets legally available therefor, ratably with any declaration or payment of any dividend (payable other than solely in common stock, $.0001 par value, of the Corporation (the "Common Stock"), or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock of this Corporation) on the Common Stock or other junior securities of this Corporation.  NYl267476.5 
 

 NY1267476.5 222845-10001  2  3.  Liquidation Preference.  Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary ("Liquidation"), the holders of record of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, before and in preference to any distribution or payment of assets of the Corporation or the proceeds thereof may be made or set apart for the holders of Common Stock or any other security junior to the Series A Preferred Stock in respect of distributions upon Liquidation out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, an amount in cash equal to $.0001 per share (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, combinations or similar events) plus an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on each share of Series A Preferred Stock on the date fixed for the distribution of assets of the Corporation (the "Series A Liquidation Preference"). If, upon such Liquidation, the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock then outstanding ranking on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock upon liquidation ("Parity Stock") shall be insufficient to permit payment in full to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Parity Stock, then the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution to such holders and the holders of the Parity Stock then outstanding shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Parity Stock based upon the proportion the total amount distributable on each share upon liquidation bears to the aggregate amount available for distribution on all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and of such Parity Stock, if any.  Upon the completion of the distribution required by subparagraph (a) of this Section 3, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis.  4.  5.  Redemption. The Series A Preferred Stock is not redeemable.  Conversion.  Optional Conversion. At any time commencing on the one year anniversary of the initial issuance date, the Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as determined according to subsections (d) through (f) of this Section 5.  Automatic Conversion. The Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into that number of shares of Common Stock that equals thirty-three percent (33%) (the "Conversion Percentage") of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock on a fully diluted basis (assuming the conversion, exercise, or exchange for shares of Common Stock of all convertible securities issued and outstanding immediately prior to such conversion, including the Series A Preferred Stock, all outstanding warrants and options, and all outstanding convertible debt, notes, debentures, or any other securities which are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (collectively, "Convertible Securities"), including for such purpose all Convertible Securities which the Corporation has agreed to issue prior to such conversion, subject to any adjustment as provided in subsections (d) through (i) of this Section 5, upon the earlier of (i) the consummation of a Public Event (as defined herein); or (ii) at any time 
 

 NY1267476.5 222845-10001  3  commencing on the one year anniversary of the initial issuance date of such Series A Preferred Stock, upon the vote or written consent as provided by law by the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting together as a single class and on an as­ converted basis) approving such conversion, or, if later, the effective date for conversion specified in such vote or written consent. For purposes hereof, "Public Event" shall mean (x) any transaction that results in the Corporation becoming either a public reporting company that files (voluntarily or otherwise) reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (whether by means of an initial public offering, reverse merger, self-registration or otherwise) or a public trading company that is quoted or listed on any U.S. securities exchange or quotation service, coupled with or preceded by (y) an equity-linked financing with an offering price that values the Corporation prior to consummation of such financing at not less than $12,000,000 and the aggregate gross proceeds to the Corporation (before deduction of underwriting discounts and registration expenses) are not less than USO $6,000,000 (a "Qualified Financing").  Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to voluntarily convert the same into shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 5(a) or 5(b)(ii) herein, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to this Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, but no later than five (5) business days thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series A Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date.  Conversion Percentage Following a Qualified Financing. From and after the date of the final closing of a Qualified Financing, notwithstanding any provision set forth herein, following any issuance of additional shares of Common Stock ("Dilution Event"), the Conversion Percentage shall be adjusted to a percentage that is determined by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into immediately prior to the Qualified Financing in accordance with Section 5(b) herein by the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately after the Dilution Event, so that the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred shall be converted is diluted pro-rata with all other holders of Common Stock.  Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. Subject to Section 3 above, if the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), then, in any such event, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which the holders would otherwise have been entitled to receive, each 
 

 NYl267476.5 222845-10001  4  holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such shares of Series A Preferred Stock into a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately before that change would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization or reclassification, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein with respect to such other shares.  Other Distributions. In the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Section 5, then, in each such case for the purpose of this Section 5, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which their shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution.  Waiver of Adjustment of Conversion Percentage. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any upward adjustment of the Conversion Percentage of the Series A Preferred Stock may be waived by the consent or vote of the holders of the majority of the outstanding shares of such series either before or after the issuance causing the adjustment. Any such waiver shall bind all future holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock.  Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or out of shares of Common Stock held in its treasury, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the full number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the conversion of all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock from time to time outstanding. The Corporation shall from time to time in accordance with Delaware law take all steps necessary to increase the authorized amount of its Common Stock if at any time the authorized number of shares of Common Stock remaining unissued shall not be sufficient to permit the conversion of all of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock.  Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. Fractional shares will be rounded to the next highest whole number.  Voting Rights.  In addition to any other rights provided for herein or by law, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote, together with the holders of Common Stock as one class, on all matters as to which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to vote, in the same manner and with the same effect as such Common Stock holders. In any such vote, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to the number of votes per share that equals the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible pursuant to Section 5 at the time of such vote. 
 

 5  NY1267476.5 222845-10001  (b) So long as any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the consent of holders of a majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, voting as one class, either expressed in writing or at a meeting called for that purpose, shall be necessary to repeal, amend or otherwise change this Designation or the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, in a manner which would alter or change the powers, preferences, rights privileges, restrictions and conditions of the Series A Preferred Stock so as to adversely affect the Series A Preferred Stock. Subject to the preceding sentence of this Section 6(b), the Series A Preferred Stock shall have no right to vote with respect to the authorization and/or issuance by the Corporation of any new series of preferred stock whether or not the terms of such preferred stock are junior to, on parity with, or senior to those of the Series A Preferred Stock.  Reissuance. No shares of Series A Preferred Stock which have been converted to Common Stock shall be reissued by the Corporation; provided, however, that any such share, upon being converted and canceled, shall be restored to the status of an authorized but unissued share of preferred stock without designation as to series, rights or preferences and may thereafter be issued as a share of preferred stock not designated as Series A Preferred Stock.  No Impairment.

If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to another corporation (each, a "Reorganization") shall be effected, then, as a condition of such Reorganization, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each holder of a share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall thereafter have the right to receive, in the 
 

 -9-  holder's sole discretion, either (x) an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Preference, provided that this clause (x) shall not apply to any Reorganization that is not required to be approved by the holders of Common Stock, or (y) upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the Conversion Shares immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of such share or shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Conversion Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, had such Reorganization not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights. The Company shall not effect any such Reorganization unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such Reorganization, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets (or other appropriate corporation or entity), shall assume the obligation to deliver to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, at the last addresses of such holders appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders may be entitled to receive, and the other obligations hereunder. The provisions of this subsection 4E shall similarly apply to successive Reorganizations.  4F. Distributions. Subject to Section 2(b). in case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus or dividends or distributions referred to in Section 4D), or subscription rights or warrants, the Conversion Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date.  4G. Adjustment for Unissued Shares. To the extent that applicable law or any existing contractual restrictions of the Company prohibit any required issuance pursuant to this Certificate of (x) PIK Shares or (y) additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock ((x) and (y), collectively, "Additional Shares"), then appropriate adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made, in connection with any conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or any calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock into which shares of Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible, such that the number of shares of Common 
 

 -10-  Stock into which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are, or would be, convertible equals the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares, plus any Additional Shares in respect of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, would be convertible but for the effects of such prohibition. On the date of a conversion in connection with which an adjustment under this subsection 4G is being made, all Series B Preferred Dividends which were previously accrued and unpaid on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted shall be deemed paid in full.  4H. Effective Date of Adjustment. An adjustment to the Conversion Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment; provided that any adjustment pursuant to subsection 4G shall be made solely in the circumstances required by such subsection.  4I. Subseguent Adjustments. In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Conversion Shares contained herein.  4J. Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, then, and in each such case the Company shall give written notice thereof by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the address of such holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice shall state the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.  4K. Other Notices. In case at any time:  the Company shall declare any dividend upon its Common Stock payable in cash or stock or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock;  the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of such stock of any class or other rights;  there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or a consolidation or merger of the Company with, or a sale of all or substantially all its assets to, another corporation; or  there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;  then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give, by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to each holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the address 
 

 -11-  of such holder as shown on the books of the Company, (a) at least 15 days prior written notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 15 days prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place and a form of election pursuant to Section 4E. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled thereto, and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, as the case may be.  4L. Stock to be Reserved.  The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock as herein provided, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. All shares of Common Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens, duties and charges arising out of or by reason of the issue thereof (including, without limitation, in respect of taxes) and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company covenants that it will from time to time take all such action as may be requisite to assure that the par value per share of the Common Stock is at all times equal to or less than the effective Conversion Price. The Company will take all such action within its control as may be necessary on its part to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any national securities exchange upon which the Common Stock of the Company may be listed. In the event the Company takes any action which results in, or would result in, any adjustment of the Conversion Price after such action the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and thereafter issuable upon exercise of all options and conversion of convertible or exchangeable stock or securities, including upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, would exceed the total number of shares of such class of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's Certificate ofincorporation, then prior to and as a condition of effecting such action the Company shall take all actions necessary to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock to at least such amount necessary to permit the exercise of all options and conversions of convertible or exchangeable stock or securities, including upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, following such action.  The Company will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Series B Preferred Stock such number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock as is equal to or greater than the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then 
 

 -12-  outstanding. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock which shall be so issued shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens, duties and charges arising out of or by reason of the issue thereof (including, without limitation, in respect of taxes).  4M. No Reissuance of Series B Preferred Stock. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are converted into shares of Common Stock as provided herein shall be retired and may not be reissued as Series B Preferred Stock but may be reissued as all or part of another series of Preferred Stock.  4N. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to the holders thereof for any issuance tax, stamp tax, transfer tax, duty or charge in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax, duty or charge which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock which is being converted.  40. Closing of Books. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of any Series B Preferred Stock or of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock; provided, however, nothing herein shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting record dates for the holders of its securities.  Voting. Except as required by applicable law or provided in Section 6 below, the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any matters. To the extent the Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to vote on any matters, each holder of outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all stockholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Company's bylaws.  Certain Restrictions. So long as at least 130 aggregate shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock required by applicable law or by the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, without the prior consent of the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a special meeting called for that purpose, at which meeting the holders of the shares of such Series B Preferred Stock shall vote together as a class, the Company will not:  authorize, create, designate, establish, issue or sell (whether by merger or otherwise) (i) an increased number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock (other than the PIK Shares), or (ii) any other class or series of capital stock ranking senior to or on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation;  reclassify any shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock into shares having any preference or priority as to dividends or upon 
 

 -13-  liquidation superior to or on parity with any such preference or priority of Series B Preferred Stock;  amend, alter or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or the resolutions contained in this Certificate and the powers, preferences, privileges, relative, participating, optional and other special rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, which would adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock;  issue, or cause any Subsidiary of the Company to issue, any indebtedness or debt security, other than trade accounts payable, insurance premium financings and/or letters of credit, performance bonds or other similar credit support incurred in the ordinary course of business, or amend, renew, increase, or otherwise alter in any material respect the terms of any such indebtedness existing as of the date of first issuance of shares of Series B Preferred Stock hereunder or previously approved or required to be approved by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock; provided that no such consent shall be required with respect to indebtedness incurred solely to fund (x) the payment of accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock, (y) the redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 9 or (z) the refinancing of any of the Company's convertible promissory notes issued between December 20, 2019 and January 9, 2020 that are outstanding as of the date of first issuance of shares of Series B Preferred Stock hereunder;  redeem, purchase, or otherwise acquire or pay or declare any dividend or other distribution on (or pay into or set aside for a sinking fund for any such purpose) any capital stock of the Company; provided, that this restriction shall not apply to the redemption or repurchase of or the payment of dividends on Shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant hereto;  declare bankruptcy, dissolve, liquidate, or wind up the affairs of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company;  effect, or enter into any agreement to effect, a Change of Control;  materially modify or change the nature of the Company's business;  or  7.  (i) agree to do any of the foregoing.  Limitations on Conversion.  (a) The Company shall not effect any conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and a holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall not have the right to convert any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, pursuant to Section 4 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after conversion, the holder of Series B Preferred 
 

 -14-  Stock (together with the Affiliates of such holder of Series B Preferred Stock, and any other Persons acting as a group within the meaning of Rule 13D-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act together with such holder of Series B Preferred Stock or any Affiliates of such holder of Series B Preferred Stock) (such Persons, "Attribution Parties"), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a holder of Series B Preferred Stock and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock held with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of the Series B Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock or any of its Affiliates (or Attribution Parties) and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other common stock equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 7(a), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock that the Company is not representing to such holder of Series B Preferred Stock that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and such holder of Series B Preferred Stock is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 7(a) applies, the determination of whether the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of such Series B Preferred Stock is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such holder of Series B Preferred Stock, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the determination of such holder of Series B Preferred Stock of whether such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 7(a), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, such holder of Series B Preferred Stock may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company's most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company's transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a holder of Series B Preferred Stock, the Company shall within two trading days confirm orally and in writing to such holder of Series B Preferred Stock the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of 
 

 -15-  outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The "Beneficial Ownership Limitation" shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Such holder of Series B Preferred Stock, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 7(a). provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder and the provisions of this Section 7(a) shall continue to apply. Any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 7{a) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.  (b) The Company shall not effect any conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and a holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall not have the right to convert any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, pursuant to Section 4 or otherwise, prior to the Company obtaining the Stockholder Approval.  Subsequent Financing Exchange Right. From the date hereof and after the Stockholder Approval, if the Company effects any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, or a combination of units thereof (a "Subsequent Financing"), the holder of any share or shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right, at its option, to exchange (in lieu of cash subscription payments) all or some of the Series B Preferred Stock then held (with a value per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the Liquidation Preference) for any securities or units issued in a Subsequent Financing on dollar-for-dollar basis; provided, however, that this Section 8 shall not apply with respect to an Exempt Issuance.  Redemption.  The Company shall have no right to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock except as set forth in this Section 9.  In the event Stockholder Approval is not received on or prior to the ninetieth (90th) day following the Final Closing, subject to extension upon the prior written approval of the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding (the "Stockholder Approval Deadline"), the Company shall repurchase all of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock at a price equal to 150% times the 
 

 -16-  then applicable Liquidation Preference (the "Redemption Price"), in cash ("Mandatory Cash Redemption").  No greater than ten (I 0) days subsequent to the Stockholder Approval Deadline, notice by first class mail, postage prepaid, shall be given to the registered holders of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed, addressed to such holders at their last addresses as shown on the stock transfer books of the Company. Each such notice shall specify the date fixed for redemption (the "Redemption Date"), which date shall be the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Redemption Price, and the place or places for surrender of the certificates representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Any notice which is mailed by the Company as herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given by the Company on the date deposited in the mail, whether or not the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock receives such notice; and failure to properly give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice, to the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series B Preferred Stock. On or after the Redemption Date, each holder of shares Series B Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificates representing such shares of Series B Preferred Stock to the Company at the place designated in the notice of such redemption.  The Company shall pay the applicable Redemption Price upon the receipt of surrender of the certificates representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Company shall so reasonably require, and letters of transmittal and instructions therefor on reasonable terms as are included in the notice sent by the Company); provided, that if such certificates are lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company may require such holder to execute an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith, prior to paying such Redemption Price.  Shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed on the Redemption Date, as the case may be, will from and after the Redemption Date, no longer be deemed to be outstanding; and all powers, designations, preferences and other rights of the holder thereof as a holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock (except the right to receive from the Company the applicable Redemption Price) shall cease and terminate with respect to such shares; provided, that in the event that a share of Series B Preferred Stock is not redeemed due to a default in payment by the Company or because the Company is otherwise unable to pay the applicable Redemption Price in cash in full, such share of Series B Preferred Stock will remain outstanding and will be entitled to all of the powers, designations, preferences and other rights as provided herein.  Any Mandatory Cash Redemption pursuant to this Section 9 shall be payable out of any cash legally available therefor. At the time of the Mandatory Cash Redemption, the Company shall take all actions required or permitted under Delaware law to permit the Mandatory Cash Redemption and to make funds legally available for such Mandatory Cash Redemption. To the extent that the Company has insufficient funds to redeem all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock upon the Mandatory Cash Redemption, 
 

 -17-  the Company shall use available funds to redeem a pro rata portion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent permissible under Delaware law.  I0. Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything in the Certificate of Incorporation or this Certificate to the contrary, no holder of Series B Preferred Shares may Transfer any of such holder's shares of Series B Preferred Stock without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that any holder may at any time Transfer any of such holder's shares of Series B Preferred Stock (a) to one or more of such holder's Affiliates, (b) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual, and (c) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. Each holder agrees that in connection with any Transfer consented to by the Company, such holder shall, if requested by the Company, deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and counsel for the Company, to the effect that the Transfer is not in violation of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state. Any purported Transfer in violation of the provisions of this Section IO shall be null and void and shall have no force or effect.  I1. No Waiver. Except as otherwise modified or provided for herein, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall also be entitled to, and shall not be deemed to have waived, any other applicable rights granted to such holders under the DGCL.  No Impairment. The Company will not, through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger scheme or arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company but will at all time in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions herein and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights and liquidation preferences granted hereunder of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock above the Conversion Price then in effect and shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock.  Amendment: Waiver. Any term of the Series B Preferred Stock may be amended or waived upon the written consent of the Company and the holders of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that the number of Conversion Shares issuable hereunder and the Conversion Price may not be amended (except for adjustments made pursuant to Section 4 herein), and the right to convert the Series B Preferred Stock may not be altered or waived, without the written consent of the holders of all of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding.  Action By Holders. Any action or consent to be taken or given by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may be given either at a meeting of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock called and held for such purpose or by written consent. 
 

 -18-  15. Fractional Shares. Series B Preferred Stock may not be issued in fractions of a share of more than six decimal places, and the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to any provision hereof shall be rounded down to the nearest six decimal places, provided the Company shall pay in cash the fair value of any such fractional share beyond six decimal places that is in excess of $100.00, which fair value shall be equal to the Fractional Share Amount.  [Execution Page Follows]

 purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such  11  irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation oflaw by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares: provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action that the Company may have against such Holder. In the event a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of the Stated Value of its Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series C Preferred Stock of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the Stated Value of Series C Preferred Stock which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment.

If the Company fails to deliver to a Holder such Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 6(d)(i) by the Share Delivery Date applicable to such conversion, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Stated Value of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, $50 per Trading Day (increasing to $100 per Trading Day on the third Trading Day and increasing to $200 per Trading Day on the sixth Trading Day after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.  iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Conversion Shares Upon Conversion.

 fractional shares of Common Stock (or Prefunded Warrants to purchase fractional  12  Holder of the Conversion Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) such Holder's total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for conversion (in which case, such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 6(d)(i). For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy­ In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of  $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy­ In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.  Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion.

The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.  Fractional Shares.

 whether the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible (in relation to other securities owned  13  shares of Common Stock, as applicable) shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.

The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same­ day electronic delivery of the Conversion Shares.  e) Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series C Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Series C Preferred Stock or the Warrants) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 6(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 except to the extent the Company has previously obtained effective Stockholder Approval,  14  by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of how many shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be such Holder's determination of whether the shares of Series C Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and how many shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, each Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Series C Preferred Stock, by such Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The "Beneficial Ownership Limitation" shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock held by the applicable Holder. A Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 6(e) applicable to its Series C Preferred Stock provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 6(e) shall continue to apply. Any such increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company and shall only apply to such Holder and no other Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of such Holder's Series C Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder's right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result 
 

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

 17  "Fundamental Transaction"), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock, the Holders shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 6(e) and Section 6(f) on the conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the "Alternate Consideration") receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Series C Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 6(e) and Section 6(f) on the conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holders shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holders' right to convert such preferred stock into Alternate Consideration. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the "Successor Entity") to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and approved by the Holders (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the holder of this Series C Preferred Stock, deliver to the Holders in exchange for this Series C Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Series C Preferred Stock which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Series C Preferred Stock) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Series C Preferred Stock immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holders. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental 
 

 18  Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents referring to the "Company" shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate ofDesignation and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.  Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 7, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as ofa given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock(excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.  Notice to the Holders.  Adjustment to Conversion Price. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice pursuant to Section 8(a) setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.  Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder.

 19  exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.
