If since the beginning of any applicable Company Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Company Test Period shall have made any Company Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section  1(d) , then the Consolidated Total Obligations Ratio shall be calculated to give Company Pro Forma Effect thereto in accordance with this Section  1(d) .

2.     Designations .

The Series A Preferred Stock shall be perpetual, subject to the provisions hereof.

3.     Ranking . With respect to (a) any payment of dividends, (b) any distribution of assets or redemption upon, or in connection with, any Material Event, and (c) any other redemption, liquidation, winding up, dissolution, dividend and/or distribution rights, the Series A Preferred Stock shall rank senior to all Junior Stock.

4.     Voting . (a) The Holders shall have no voting rights with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock except as explicitly set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate of Designations, the Series A Investors Rights Agreement or as otherwise required by Law.

(b)    At any time that any separate vote or consent of the Holders is required under this Certificate of Designations or pursuant to the DGCL, the voting power of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock, as a percentage of the aggregate voting power of all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, shall be the product of (i) the quotient of (x) the Liquidation Preference of such share as of such time, divided by (y) the Aggregate Liquidation Preference of all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock as of such time, multiplied by (ii) 100; provided that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite voting power of the Series A Preferred Stock have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or made any vote pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) or pursuant to the DGCL, any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock Beneficially Owned or held, directly or indirectly, by the Sponsor (including the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the definition of “Sponsor”, any Portfolio Companies of the Sponsor) shall not have voting power and shall be disregarded and excluded from voting on any such matter and the Liquidation Preference of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock Beneficially Owned or held, directly or indirectly, by the Sponsor (including the Company, any of its Subsidiaries and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the definition of “Sponsor”, any Portfolio Companies of the Sponsor) shall not be included in the calculation of the voting power of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Closing Date Investors constitute the Sponsor, as of the Closing Date.

30

5.     Dividends .

(a)    The Holders of outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive to the fullest extent permitted by Law, with respect to each Dividend Period, paid-in-kind preferential cumulative dividends by the issuance of additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock on each Dividend Payment Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, from and after the date of issuance of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock, paid-in-kind preferential cumulative dividends shall accumulate on a daily basis in arrears during each Dividend Period at the Dividend Rate in effect from time to time on the then-current Liquidation Preference of each such share, whether or not such dividends are earned or are declared by the Board of Directors or the Company is permitted by Law to pay dividends (“ Dividends ”), and, if declared, shall be due and payable in the form of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the Dividend Payment Date with respect to such Dividend Period in accordance with this Section  5 . On each Dividend Payment Date, each Holder of outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall receive a number of additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock with an aggregate Liquidation Preference equal to the aggregate amount of Dividends accumulated on the shares of such Holder for the applicable Dividend Period and the Company shall be required to declare such Dividends and pay such Dividends in kind on such Dividend Payment Date; provided that each such share of the Series A Preferred Stock issued as a Dividend shall have a Liquidation Preference equal to the then-current Liquidation Preference of each existing share of the Series A Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company may not declare or pay any Dividend or make any other payment to the extent such Dividend or other payment is not permitted by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any Dividends with respect to any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to any Dividend Period are not declared or are declared but not paid because such declaration or payment would not be permitted by Law, or if such Dividends are not declared (or are declared but not paid) for any other reason, then, such Dividends shall (whether or not earned or declared) compound on the applicable Dividend Payment Date with respect to such Dividend Period and shall automatically be added (and be deemed to be added) to the Liquidation Preference of each such share of the Series A Preferred Stock as of such Dividend Payment Date (“ Compounded Dividends ”). In any event, the Company shall take all actions necessary to ensure that any Compounded Dividends are accurately reflected and recorded on the books and records of each of the Transfer Agent and DTC and otherwise accrue to the benefit of each Beneficial Owner of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, including (i) directing the Transfer Agent to record the applicable increase in the Liquidation Preference of each share of Series A Preferred Stock on its books and records and (ii) ensuring that the CUSIP numbers and each other security identifier associated with each share of Series A Preferred Stock reflect any Compounded Dividends, which action shall include, to the extent necessary, procuring additional or replacement CUSIP numbers or other security identifiers.

Solely on any Dividend Payment Date when the Liquidation Preference of any then-outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock includes any Compounded Dividends, the Company shall, immediately prior to issuing the shares issuable in respect of the accumulated and unpaid Dividends as of such Dividend Payment Date, issue to each Holder with respect to each share of the Series A Preferred Stock of such Holder additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock with an aggregate Liquidation Preference in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Compounded Dividends on all such shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (if such issuance is permitted by Law and would not cause an Extraordinary Dividend as described in Section  5(b) ); provided that each such share of the Series A Preferred Stock issued for the purpose of reducing Compounded Dividends shall have a Liquidation Preference equal to the Liquidation Preference that each share of the Series A Preferred Stock would have immediately after giving effect to such issuance of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock reducing Compounded Dividends

31

on each share of the Series A Preferred Stock to zero; provided , further that the Company shall issue such shares in respect of the Compounded Dividends only on any Dividend Payment Date and only if such issuance of shares shall reduce the amount of aggregate Compounded Dividends on all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to zero. The issuance of shares to reduce Compounded Dividends described in the immediately preceding sentence is referred to in this Certificate of Designations as a “ Compounded Dividends Reduction .” Upon a Compounded Dividends Reduction, the then-current Liquidation Preference of all applicable shares shall be reduced by the amount of the corresponding Compounded Dividends with respect to which additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock have been issued pursuant to such Compounded Dividends Reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount of accumulated Dividends required to be paid on a Dividend Payment Date on which a Compounded Dividends Reduction occurs shall not be affected by such Compounded Dividends Reduction; provided that each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued on such Dividend Payment Date in respect of such accumulated Dividends shall have a Liquidation Preference equal to the Liquidation Preference of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately following such Compounded Dividends Reduction.

Dividends shall be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed over a year of 360 days. The Company shall not issue any fractional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock as part of the Dividends, but shall instead issue a number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock that is rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares from the number of shares that would otherwise be issuable. All accumulated Dividends shall be prior and in preference to any dividend on any Junior Stock and shall be fully declared and paid before any dividends are declared and paid, or any other distributions or redemptions are made, on any Junior Stock ( provided that nothing in this sentence shall restrict (x) the declaration, making or payment of any dividend or other distribution that is made, and expressly permitted to be made, by the proviso to Section  9(a)(i) or (y) the purchase, repurchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition of any shares of Equity Interest that rank junior to the Series A Preferred Stock or any payment on account thereof, in each case to the extent made, and expressly permitted to be made, by the proviso to Section  9(a)(ii) ). Except as set forth in Section  7(b) , Dividends shall be payable to the Holders as they appear on the stock record of the Company on the record date for such Dividends, which shall be the date that is 15 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date, and which record date and Dividend Payment Date shall be declared by the Board of Directors during each Dividend Period on the date that is at least 20 days prior to the Dividend Payment Date and five days prior to the record date. If, as and when any such additional shares are issued hereunder, the Company shall take all action necessary to ensure such shares shall be duly authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof.

(b)    Subject to Section  5(c) , the Company shall not declare or pay any Dividend (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any deemed dividend under Section 305 of the Code) if such Dividend would, or would cause any Dividend made (or deemed made) during the two-year period beginning on the Closing Date to, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Company, constitute an “extraordinary dividend” to any Investor under Section 1059 of the Code (an “ Extraordinary Dividend ”); provided that any such undeclared or unpaid Dividends shall compound and be added to the then-current Liquidation Preference of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock on the applicable Dividend Payment Date as Compounded Dividends.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Certificate of Designations or in any other Series A Preferred Stock Document, Section  5(b) shall not prohibit or restrict (and shall not be construed to prohibit or restrict) (x) any Optional Redemption or any payment made or declared in respect of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock in connection with any Optional Redemption (including any payment or declaration of accumulated and unpaid Dividends in connection with any Optional Redemption) or (y) any Material Event Offer or Material Event Redemption or any payment made or declared in respect of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock in connection with any Material Event Offer or Material Event Redemption (including any payment or declaration of accumulated and unpaid Dividends in connection with any Material Event Redemption).

(3)    that Dividends shall continue to accumulate on any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock not redeemed;

(4)    that Dividends with respect to each share of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall cease to accumulate as of the Optional Redemption Date unless the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price for such share (or the Redemption Price for such share is not irrevocably deposited) on or prior to the Optional Redemption Date;

(5)    that shares of the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption must be surrendered, by book-entry transfer (including in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC if applicable) or physical delivery of certificates representing the Series A Preferred Stock, to the Transfer Agent to collect the Redemption Price;

Any Optional Redemption may be made subject, if so provided in the applicable Optional Redemption Notice, to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, including the receipt of sufficient funds. In addition, if such Optional Redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that such Optional Redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the Optional Redemption Date or such notice may be rescinded at any time in the Company’s discretion if in the good faith judgment of the Company any or all of such conditions will not be satisfied or waived.

34

such conditions precedent are not or will not be satisfied or waived as of the date designated as the “Optional Redemption Date” in the Optional Redemption Notice in respect of such Optional Redemption (the “ Initial Date ”), the Company may, in its discretion, delay the Optional Redemption until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived by delivery to the Holders in the manner provided above of a subsequent Optional Redemption Notice (a “ Subsequent Optional Redemption Notice ”) setting forth a newly designated Optional Redemption Date in respect of such Optional Redemption (which may not be prior to the Initial Date but, for the avoidance of doubt, may be less than ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of such Subsequent Optional Redemption Notice).

The Global Certificates may have notations, legends or endorsements as set forth herein or as required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to which the Company is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company).
