CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OF

SERIES D PREFERRED STOCK OF

BRAVATEK SOLUTIONS, INC.

 

Bravatek Solutions, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the provisions of the Colorado Revised Statutes (the “Colorado Revised Statutes” or “CRS”)

 

DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:

 

 

1. That the name of this corporation is Bravatek Solutions, Inc., and that this corporation was originally incorporated pursuant to the Colorado Revised Statutes on April 19, 2007.

 

 

 

 

2. Pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of Bravatek Solutions, Inc. (the “Corporation”) under the Colorado Revised Statutes and by Article 12 of Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”), there is hereby created, and the Corporation is hereby authorized to issue, a series of convertible preferred stock, $.0001 par value, which shall have, in addition to the rights, restrictions, preferences and privileges set forth in the Articles, the following terms, conditions, rights, restrictions, preferences and privileges:

 

 

I. DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT

 

 

a. A series of convertible preferred stock is hereby designated as “Series D Convertible Preferred Stock” in the amount of One Hundred (100,000) shares (the “Series D Preferred Stock”).

 

 

II. VOTING

 

 

a. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any voting rights prior to conversion into Common Stock of the Corporation.

 

 

III. CONVERSION

 

 

a. The holders of the outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall have the following conversion rights (the “Conversion Rights”):

 

 

i. Right to Convert. At the option of the holder thereof, each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the office of the Corporation, at any time, into a number of fully paid and non‐assessable shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock equal to $24.00 divided by the volume-weighted average price of the Corporation’s Common Stock as reported on OTCMarkets.com on the trading day immediately preceding conversion so long as such conversion would not result in the holder beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Corporation’s Common Stock after conversion. As an example for clarity, if the holder elected to convert 1 share of Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock, and the volume-weighted average price of the Corporation’s Common Stock were $0.005 on the trading date prior to the date of conversion as reported on OTCMarkets.com, such share would convert into 4,800 shares of Common Stock.

 

 
A-2
 
 

 

 

ii. Mechanics of Conversion. Each holder of outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock who desires to convert the same into shares of Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation together with written notice to the Corporation stating that such holder elects to convert the same and the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock being converted (the “Conversion Notice”). Thereupon, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made on the date of such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series D Preferred Stock to be converted together with the Conversion Notice (the “Conversion Date”), and the person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

 

 

 

 

iii. Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the date that the Amendment to the Articles creating the Series D Preferred Stock was filed with the Colorado Secretary of State (the “Filing Date”) effects a division of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon any conversion shall be proportionately adjusted, and, conversely, if the Corporation at any time, or from time to time, after the Filing Date combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon any conversion shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment under this Section shall be effective on the close of business on the date such division or combination becomes effective.

 

 

 

 

iv. Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sales of Assets. If, at any time or from time to time after the Filing Date, there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock, a merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with another corporation or a sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties and assets to any other person, then, as a part of such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made such that the holders of outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall thereafter receive upon conversion thereof the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which their shares of Series D Preferred Stock were convertible would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale.

 

 
A-3
 
 

 

 

v. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock. If any fractional shares result from a conversion, the total number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion shall be rounded up to the total number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion.

 

 

VI. NOTICES

 

 

a. Any notice required or permitted by the provisions of this Article to be given to a holder of shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the post office address last shown on the records of the Corporation, or given by electronic communication in compliance with the provisions of the Colorado Business Corporation Act and shall be deemed sent upon such mailing or electronic transmission.

 

 

VII. NO OTHER RIGHTS DESIGNATED

 

 

a. Except as expressly designated herein, there are no other rights or preferences related to the Series D Preferred Shares, including without limitation any rights to dividends, liquidation preferences, or seniority to other classes and series of stock.

 

* * *

 

3. That the foregoing Certificate of Designation was approved by the holders of the requisite members of the Board of Directors of this Corporation in accordance with Section 7 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.

 

4. That this Certificate of Designation, which restates and integrates and further amends the provisions of this corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation as provided herein, has been duly adopted in accordance with Section 7 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.

NONSOLICITATION, NONDISCLOSURE AND NONCOMPETITION

AGREEMENT

 

This Nonsolicitation, Nondisclosure and Noncompetition Agreement (the “ Agreement ”) is made by Johnny Bolton (“ BOLTON ”) in favor of Bravatek Solutions, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“ BVTK ”), effective as of November __, 2017 (the “ Effective Date ”).

 

For good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Background . Johnny Bolton is selling to Bravatek Solutions, Inc. all of Seller’s stock of Helpcomm, Inc. (the “ Company ”) pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Agreement executed concurrently herewith (the “ Purchase Agreement ”). As part of the sale to BVTK, BVTK is requiring BOLTON to agree to (1) keep information relating to Company and the sale thereof confidential, and (2) agree not to compete, on the terms specified herein, with BVTK beginning on the Effective Date and continuing for a period of five (5) years. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions for BOLTON’s nondisclosure, noncompetition, and general release of claims.

 

2. Confidential Information . As used in this Agreement, “ Confidential Information ” means any information or data, of any kind or nature furnished by or on behalf of BVTK or its agents, relating to the Company, the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, and whether such information is printed, written, oral, or electronically stored or reproduced, and whether provided in response to a specific inquiry or voluntarily furnished on, before, or after the Effective Date hereof, and includes, but is not limited to: books of business, customer lists and contact information, financial information, records, budgets, minutes, purchase and sale agreements, designs, sketches, drawings, surveys, environmental reports, feasibility studies, marketing plans and materials, business plans, analyses, strategies, forecasts, concepts, ideas, or any information derived, summarized, or extracted from any of the foregoing, including any and all data, reports, records (financial and otherwise), trade secrets, verbal communications, and/or other materials. However, Confidential Information does not include information which: (i) is or becomes publicly known and made generally available in the public domain by publication, commercial use or otherwise through no fault of BOLTON or of any third party with a duty to keep such information confidential either prior to the time of disclosure by BVTK or thereafter; (ii) is known to the receiving party at the time of disclosure without violation of any confidentiality restriction and without any restriction on the receiving party’s further use or disclosure; (iii) is independently developed by the receiving party; or (iv) is approved for release by written agreement of BVTK. Nevertheless, it shall not be a violation of this section 2 for BOLTON to disclose matters related to the Purchase Agreement to attorneys, accountants, financial advisors or the like.

 

3. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information . All Confidential Information is considered highly sensitive and strictly confidential. Accordingly, BOLTON agrees to maintain the Confidential Information in the utmost confidence. BOLTON agrees that he shall take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of the Confidential Information of BVTK. Without limiting the foregoing, BOLTON shall take at least those measures that he takes to protect his own confidential information of a similar nature, but in no case less than reasonable care, and BOLTON will not, without the prior written consent of BVTK (except as required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process), disclose the Confidential Information to any person(s).

 

 
B-2
 
 

 

4. Obligation to Disclose Confidential Information . In the event that BOLTON or any of BOLTON’s Representatives is requested or required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process to disclose any of the Confidential Information, BOLTON will notify BVTK in writing immediately (unless prohibited by law) so that BVTK, at its sole expense, may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy or, in its sole discretion, may waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and if BVTK seeks such an order, BOLTON will provide such cooperation at BVTK’s expense and as BVTK shall reasonably request. In the event that (a) no such protective order or other remedy is obtained, or (b) BVTK waives compliance with the terms of this Agreement and BOLTON or any of BOLTON’s Representatives are legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information, BOLTON or BOLTON’s Representatives, as the case may be, will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which BOLTON is advised by counsel is legally required. BOLTON will give BVTK written notice (unless prohibited by law) of the Confidential Information to be disclosed as far in advance as practicable, and will exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.

 

5. Term of Nondisclosure . The covenant of nondisclosure shall continue in perpetuity.

 

6. Noncompetition & Nonsolicitation Covenants . From the Effective Date and continuing for a period of five (5) years, BOLTON hereby agrees that he shall not, and shall not permit any of his employees, agents or affiliates (“ Affiliates ”), to do any of the following without the prior written consent of BVTK:

b. Solicit Business . Solicit or influence or attempt to influence any client, customer or other person, either directly or indirectly, to direct such client’s, customer’s or other person’s purchase of the Company’s products and/or services away from the Company or to any person, firm, corporation, institution or other entity other than the Company.

BOLTON may employ any such employee provided that neither they nor any of their affiliates has solicited such employee in contravention of this paragraph 6(c).

 

7. Equitable Relief; Rights Upon Breach . In the event of any breach of this Agreement, BVTK, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity that it may have, will be entitled to equitable relief including injunctive relief and specific performance. BOLTON agrees that in the event of its breach of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement, BVTK shall have the right to: (a) receive compensation for actual damages from BOLTON for any losses incurred by reason of such breach, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of suit; and/or (b) apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the entry of an immediate order to restrain or enjoin the breach of said covenants and otherwise to specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement.
