Applied UV, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), hereby certifies that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board of Directors") pursuant to the authority of the Board of Directors as required by Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation to fix the dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, conversion rights, rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting any such series;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to this authority granted to and vested in the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of incorporation, the Board of Directors hereby adopts this Certificate of Designations, Rights, and Preferences (the"Certificate of Designation") for the purpose of creating a series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation classified and designated as 2% Series B Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), and hereby states the designation and number of shares, and fixes the relative rights, powers and preferences, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series B Preferred Stock as follows:

1.  Designation and Amount. The shares of such series of Preferred Stock shall be designated as "2% Series B Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock" and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 1,250,000 shares. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be identical in all respects to every other share of Series B Preferred Stock. Such number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock may from time to time be increased (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of preferred stock) or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding) by further resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors and by the filing of a certificate pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law stating that such increase or reduction, as the case may be, has been so authorized. The Corporation shall have the authority to issue fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

2.  No Maturity, Sinking Fund, Mandatory Redemption. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Series B Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund for the payment of the redemption price or mandatory redemption, and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless the Series B Preferred Stock is redeemed or otherwise repurchased in accordance with this Certificate of Designations. The Corporation is not required to set aside funds to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock.

3.  Ranking. The Series B Preferred Stock will rank: (i) senior to all classes or series of our common stock and to all other equity securities issued by us expressly designated as ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock; (ii) on parity with our 10.5% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock; (iii) at least on parity with any future class or series of our equity securities designated on or after the date hereof, including our 5% Series C Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock; and (iv) effectively junior to all our existing and future indebtedness (including indebtedness convertible into our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") or Preferred Stock) and to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our existing or future subsidiaries.

4. Dividends.

(a)  The holders of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, out of funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends, cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate of 2% on $6.00 liquidation preference per share of the Series B Preferred Stock. Such dividends shall be paid at least pari passu with any dividends payable withrespect to any other series of the Corporation's Preferred Stock. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the first date on which any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are issued (the "Original Issue Date"), or, if later, the most recent Dividend Payment Date (as defined below) to which dividends have been paid in full (or declared and the corresponding Dividend Record Date (as defined below) for determining stockholders entitled to payment thereof has passed), and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Dividend Payment Date, commencing on February 15, 2023; provided, however, that if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day (as defined below), then the dividend which would otherwise have been payable on such Dividend Payment Date may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if paid on such Dividend Payment Date, and no interest or additional dividends or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Dividend Payment Date to suchnext succeeding Business Day; provided,further, that no dividends shall accrue on any share of Series B Preferred Stock for any Dividend Period (as defined below) having a Dividend Record Date before the date such share of Series B Preferred Stock was issued. The amount of any dividend payable on the Series B Preferred Stock for any period greater or less than a full Dividend Period shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as they appear in the stockholder records of the Corporation at the close of business on the applicable Dividend Record Date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, each holder of an outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive a dividend with respect to any Dividend Record Date equal to the dividend paid with respect to each other share of Series B Preferred Stock that is outstanding on such date. "Dividend Record Date"shall mean the date designated by the Board of Directors for the payment of dividends that is not more than thirty (30) days or fewer than ten (I 0) days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date. "Dividend Payment Date" shall mean the fifteenth (I 5^th) calendar day of the month following the last month of a quarterly period commencing on February 15, 2023. "Dividend Period" shall mean the respective periods commencing on the first (1^st) day of the first month of a quarterly period and ending on and including the day preceding the first (Is) day of the first month of the next succeeding quarterly period (other than the initial Dividend Period, which shall commence on the Original Issue Date and end on April I, 2023, and other than the Dividend Period during which any shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be redeemed pursuant to Section 6 or Section 7 hereof, which shall end on and include the day preceding the redemption date with respect to the shares of Series B Preferred Stock being redeemed). The term "Business Day" shall mean any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a federal legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law, regulation, or executive order to close.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue whether or not the Corporation has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends, and whether or not such dividends are authorized or declared.

(c)  Except as provided in Section 4(d) or i(f) below, no dividends shall be declared and paid or declared and set apart for payment, and no other distribution of cash or other property may be declared and made, directly or indirectly, onor with respect to any shares of Common Stock or shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to dividends, on parity with or junior to the Series B Preferred Stock for any period, nor shall any shares of Common Stock or any other shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the Corporation's liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, on parity with or junior to the Series B Preferred Stock be redeemed, purchased, or otherwise acquired for any consideration, nor shall any funds be paid or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of such shares, and no other distribution of cash or other property may be made, directly or indirectly, on or with respect thereto by the Corporation, unless full cumulative dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for all past Dividend Periods shall have been or contemporaneously are (i) paid or (ii) a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, except (x) by conversion into or exchange for shares of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, junior to the Series B Preferred Stock; (y) for the redemption of shares of the Corporation's capital stock pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation relating to the restrictions upon ownership and transfer of the Corporation's capital stock; and (z) for a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and any other stock that ranks on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation.

(d)  Except as provided in Section 4(f) below, when dividends are not paid in full on the Series B Preferred Stock and the shares of any other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to dividends, on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, all dividends declared upon the Series B Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to dividends, on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the redemption or repurchase of shares of any such class or series) shall be declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends declared per share of Series B Preferred Stock and such other class or series of capital stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued dividends per share on the Series B Preferred Stock and such other class or series of capital stock (which shall not include any accrual in respect of unpaid dividends on such other class or series of capital stock for prior Dividend Periods if such other class or series of capital stock does not have a cumulative dividend) bear to each other. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Series B Preferred Stock which may be in arrears.

(e)  Holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend, whether payable in cash, property or shares of capital stock, in excess of full cumulative dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided herein. Any dividend payment made on the Series B Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid dividends due with respect to such shares which remain payable. Accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will accrue as of the Dividend Payment Date on which they first become payable.

(f)  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4 or Sections 6 or 1 and regardless of whether dividends are paid in full on the Series B Preferred Stock or the shares of any other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to dividends, on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock for any or all Dividend Periods, the Corporation shall not be prohibited or limited from (i) paying dividends on any shares of stock of the Corporation in shares of Common Stock or in shares of any other class or series of capital stock ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the Corporation's liquidation, dissolution, and winding up, (ii) converting or exchanging any shares of stock of the Corporation for shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the Corporation's liquidation, dissolution, and winding up, or (iii) purchasing or acquiring shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

5. Liquidation Preference.

(a)  Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, junior to the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, a liquidation preference of $6.00 per share, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not authorized or declared) up to the date of payment. In the event that, upon such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the available assets of the Corporation are insufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all shares of other classes or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to rights upon the Corporation's liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets, then the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given not fewer than thirty (30) days or more than sixty (60) days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of the Corporation. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation. The consolidation, merger, or conversion of the Corporation with or into any other corporation, trust, or entity, or the voluntary sale, lease, transfer, or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Corporation, shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation.

(b)  In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption, or other acquisition of shares of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise, is permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law, amounts that would be needed, if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be added to the Corporation's total liabilities.

6. Redemption.

(a)  Upon notice in accordance with Section 6(b), a holder, at his, her, or its option, can require the Corporation to redeem all or a portion of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time held by such holder (the "Forced Redemption Right'') after thirty (30) months from the Original Issue Date at a redemption price of Two Dollars ($2.00) per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not authorized or declared) thereon, up to but not including the date fixed for redemption, without interest, to the extent the Corporation has funds legally available therefor; provided that if a holder requires the Corporation to redeem all or a portion of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time held by such holder on or after the five (5) year anniversary of the Original Issue Date, the redemption price shall be Six Dollars ($6.00) per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not authorized or declared) thereon, up to but not including the date fixed for redemption, without interest, to the extent the Corporation has funds legally available therefor. If the Corporation does not have the funds legally availability therefor as of the redemption date, the failure to so pay shall constitute a default in the payment of the redemption price and the Corporation shall effect the redemption within no more than five (5) days following the date on which it has the funds legally available therefor.

(b)  Notice of redemption pursuant to the Forced Redemption Right will be mailed by the holder of Series B Preferred Stock, postage prepaid, not fewer than thirty (30) days or more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the Corporation. Each such notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed (and, if fewer than all the shares are to be redeemed, the number of shares to be redeemed from such holder); (iv) the place or places where the certificates, if any, representing shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; (v) procedures for surrendering noncertificated shares of Series B Preferred Stock for payment of the redemption price; (vi) that dividends on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the date prior to such redemption date; and (vii) that payment of the redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series B Preferred Stock. From and after the date set for redemption, unless the Corporation shall default in the payment of the redemption price: (1) all dividends on the shares designated for redemption in the notice will cease to accumulate; (2) all rights of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed, except the right to receive the redemption price thereof (including all accumulated and unpaid dividends up to the date prior to the Redemption Date), will cease and terminate; (3) the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed will not thereafter be transferred (except with the consent of the Corporation) on the transfer agent's books; and (4) the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed will not be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.

(c)  If a redemption date falls after a Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business of such Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption of such shares on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date, and each holder of Series B Preferred Stock that surrenders its shares on such redemption date will be entitled to the dividends accruing after the end of the Dividend Period to which such Dividend Payment Date relates up to but excluding the redemption date.

(d) All shares of the Series B Preferred Stock redeemed or repurchased pursuant to this Section 7, or otherwise acquired in any other manner by the Corporation, shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series or class.

(e)  If any redemption date is not a Business Day, then the redemption price and accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, payable upon redemption may be paid on the next Business Day and no interest, additional dividends, or other sums will accumulate on the amount payable for the period from and after that redemption date to that next Business Day.

7. Special Optional Redemption by the Corporation.

(a)  Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below), the Corporation will have the option upon written notice mailed by the Corporation, postage pre-paid, no fewer than thirty (30) days and nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date and addressed to the holders of record of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective addresses as they appear on the stock transfer records of the Corporation, to redeem the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within ninety (90) days after the first date on which the Change of Control occurred, as applicable, for cash at $6.00 per share plus,subject to Section 7(d), accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date ("Special Optional Redemption Right"). No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validityof the proceedings for the redemption of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given. If, on or prior to the Change of Control conversion date, as applicable, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of redemption with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock will not have the conversion right described below in Section 9. A "Change of Control" is when, after the original issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, each of the following have occurred and are continuing:

(i)  the acquisition by any person, including any syndicate or group deemed to be a "person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), of beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, through a purchase, merger, or other acquisition transaction or series of purchases, mergers, or other acquisition transactions of stock of the Corporation entitling that person to exercise more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of all stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the Corporation's directors (except that such person will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is currently exercisable or is exercisable only upon the occurrence of a subsequent condition); and

(ii)  following the closing of any transaction referred to in (i) above, neither the Corporation nor the acquiring or surviving entity (or, if in connection with such transaction holders of Common Stock receive alternative form of consideration consisting of common equity securities of another entity, such other entity) has a class of common securities (or American depositary receipts representing such securities) listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ''), the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE''), or the NYSE American, LLC (the "NYSE AMER''), or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to NASDAQ, the NYSE, or the NYSE AMER.

(b)  Such notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed; (iv) the placeor places where the certificates, if any, representing shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; (v) procedures for surrendering noncertificated shares of Series B Preferred Stock for payment of the redemption price; (vi) that dividends on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the date prior to the redemption date; (vii) that payment of the redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series B Preferred Stock; (viii) that the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are being redeemed pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right in connection with the occurrence of a Change of Control, and a brief description of the transaction or transactions constituting such Change of Control, as applicable; and (ix) that holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to which the notice relates will not be able to tender such shares of Series B Preferred Stock for conversion in connection with the Change of Control, as applicable, and each share of Series B Preferred Stock tendered for conversion that is selected, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, for redemption will be redeemed on the related redemption dateinstead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date. If fewer than all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to such holder shall also specify the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder to be redeemed. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender such Series B Preferred Stock at the place, or in accordance with the book-entry procedures, designated in such notice and shall be entitled to the redemption price of $6.00 per share and any accrued and unpaid dividends payable upon such redemption following such surrender. If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be redeemed pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be redeemed pro rata (as nearly as may be practicable without creating fractional shares) or by lot as determined by the Corporation.

(c)  If (i) the Corporation has given a notice of redemption pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right, (ii) the funds necessary for such redemption have been set aside by the Corporation in trust for the benefit of the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock so called for redemption, and (iii) irrevocable instructions have been given to pay the redemption price and all accrued and unpaid dividends, then from and after the redemption date, dividends shall cease to accrue on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, such shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed outstanding, and all rights of the holders of such shares shall terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price plus any accrued and unpaid dividends payable upon such redemption, without interest.

(d)  If a redemption date falls after a Dividend Record Date and onor prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business of such Dividend Record Date shall be entitled to the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption of such shares on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date, and each holder of Series B Preferred Stock that surrenders its shares on such redemption date will be entitled to the dividends accruing after the end of the Dividend Period to which such Dividend Payment Date relates up to but excluding the redemption date. Except as provided herein, the Corporation shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on Series B Preferred Stock for which a notice of redemption has been given.

(e) All shares of the Series B Preferred Stock redeemed or repurchased pursuant to this Section 1, or otherwise acquired in any other manner by the Corporation, shall be retired and shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series or class.

8. Voting Rights. The Series B Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights.

9. Conversion.

(a)  Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Original Issue Date, at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) share of Common Stock. Each holder shall effect any conversion by providing the Corporation with a completed duly executed form of conversion notice attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "Notice of Conversion''). Other than in the case of a conversion following a Fundamental Transaction (as defined below), the Notice of Conversion must specify at least a number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of (x) 100 shares and (y) the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then held by the holder. Provided the Corporation's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Notice of Conversion may specify, at the holder's election, whether the applicable Conversion Shares shall be credited to the account of the holder's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (a "DWAC Delivery"). The date on which a conversion shall be deemed effective (the "Conversion Date''), shall be defined as the Trading Day that the Notice of Conversion, completed and duly executed, is sent by facsimile to, and received during regular business hours by, the Corporation; provided that the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation within two (2) Trading Days thereafter. In all other cases, the Conversion Date shall be defined as the Trading Day on which the original shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation. The calculations set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. The following events are deemed as "Fundamental Transactions": (i) a Change of Control; (ii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions; and (iii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization, or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash, or property. "Trading Day" means a day on which the principal Trading Market is open for trading. "Trading Market" means any of the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted for trading on the date in question: the OTCQB Venture Market, the NYSE American, The Nasdaq Capital Market, The Nasdaq Global Market, The Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the New York Stock Exchange (or any successors to any of the foregoing).

(b)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion set forth on an applicable Notice of Conversion, such holder (together with such holder's affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including any "group" of which the holder is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock 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 such holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock subject to the Notice of Conversion with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon

(A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series B Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates, and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation (including any warrants) beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. In addition, for purposes hereof, "group" has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. It is understood that the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Investor shall be aggregated with each other Investor for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 90,). in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Corporation's most recent periodic or annual filing with SEC, as the case maybe, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation that is filed with the SEC, or (C) a more recent notice by the Corporation or the Corporation's transfer agent to the holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon the written request of a holder (which may be by email), the Corporation shall, within three (3) Trading Days thereof, confirm in writing to such holder (which may be via email) 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 any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including shares of Series B Preferred Stock, by such holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the holder. 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 pursuant to such Notice of Conversion. The Corporation shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the holder in any Notice of Conversion regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

(i)  Not later than three (3) Trading Days after the applicable Conversion Date, or if the holder requests the issuance of physical certificate(s), two (2) Trading Days after receipt by the Corporation of the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion (the "Share Delivery Date"), the Corporation shall (a) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting holder a physical certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock or (b) in the case of a DWAC Delivery, electronically transfer such Conversion Shares by crediting the account of the holder's prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by or, in the case of a DWAC Delivery, such shares are not electronically delivered to or as directed by, the applicable holder by the Share Delivery Date, the applicable holder shall be entitled to elect to rescind such Conversion Notice by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares or electronic receipt of such shares, as applicable, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to such holder any original Series B Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation and such holder shall promptly return to the Corporation any Common Stock certificates or otherwise direct the return of any shares of Common Stock delivered to the holder through the DWAC system, representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Corporation.

(ii)  If the Corporation fails to deliver to a holder the applicable certificate or certificates or to effect a DWAC Delivery, as applicable, by the Share Delivery Date (other than a failure caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by a holder to the Corporation), and if after such Share Delivery Date such holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the holder's brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such 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 Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such holder) the amount by which

(x) such holder's total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of 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 B Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock submitted for conversion or deliver to such holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements. 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 B Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price (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 Corporation shall be required to pay such holder $1,000. The holder shall provide the Corporation written notice, within three (3) Trading Days after the occurrence of a Buy-In, indicating the amounts payable to such holder in respect of such Buy-In together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Corporation. 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 Corporation's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the holder shall not be entitled to both (i) require the reissuance of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock submitted for conversion for which such conversion was not timely honored and (ii) receive the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements.

(iii)  The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.

(iv)  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

(v)  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be madewithout charge to any holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the registered holder(s) of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or entity requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(d)  Upon each Conversion Date, (i) the shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the holder's rights as a holder of such converted shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such holder because of a failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designation. In all cases, the holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Corporation's failure to convert Series B Preferred Stock.

I0. Record Holders. The Corporation and its transfer agent may deem and treat the record holder of any Series B Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

11.  No Preemptive Rights. No holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will, as holders of Series B Preferred Stock, have any preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or any other security of the Corporation.

12.  Exclusion of Other Rights. The Series B Preferred Stock shall not have any preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption other than expressly set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and this Certificate of Designation.

13.  Headings of Subdivisions. The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.

14.  Severability of Provisions. If any preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designation are invalid, unlawful, or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule oflaworpublic policy, all other preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of Series B Preferred Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designation which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable provision thereof shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect and no preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other provision thereof unless so expressed therein.

(b)  In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption, or other acquisition of shares of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise, is permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law, amounts that would be needed, if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be added to the Corporation's total liabilities.

(c)  All shares of the Series C Preferred Stock redeemed or repurchased pursuant to this Section Q, or otherwise acquired in any other manner by the Corporation, shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series or class.

(d)  If any redemption date is not a Business Day, then the redemption price and accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, payable upon redemption may be paid on the next Business Day and no interest, additional dividends, or other sums will accumulate on the amount payable for the period from and after that redemption date to that next Business Day.

If, on or prior to the Change of Control conversion date, as applicable, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of redemption with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock (whether pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or the Special Optional Redemption Right), the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock will not have the conversion right described below in Section 9. A "Change of Control" is when, after the original issuance of the Series C Perpetual Preferred Stock, each of the following have occurred and are continuing:

(ii)  following the closing of any transaction referred to in (i) above, neither the Corporation nor the acquiring or surviving entity (or, if in connection with such transaction holders of Common Stock receive alternative form of consideration consisting of common equity securities of another entity, such other entity) has a class of common securities (or American depositary receipts representing such securities) listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"), the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), or the NYSE American, LLC (the "NYSE AMER"), or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to NASDAQ, the NYSE, or the NYSE AMER.

(b)  Such notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed; (iv) the place or places where the certificates, if any, representing shares of Series C Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; (v) procedures for surrendering noncertificated shares of Series C Preferred Stock for payment of the redemption price; (vi) that dividends on the shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the date prior to the redemption date; (vii) that payment of the redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series C Preferred Stock; (viii) that the shares of Series C Preferred Stock are being redeemed pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right in connection with the occurrence of a Change of Control, and a brief description of the transaction or transactions constituting such Change of Control, as applicable; and (ix) that holders of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock to which the notice relates will not be able to tender such shares of Series C Preferred Stock for conversion in connection with the Change of Control, as applicable, and each share of Series C Preferred Stock tendered for conversion that is selected, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, for redemption will be redeemed on the related redemption date instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date. If fewer than all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to such holder shall also specify the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such holder to be redeemed. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender such Series C Preferred Stock at the place, or in accordance with the book-entry procedures, designated in such notice and shall be entitled to the redemption price of $5.00 per share and any accrued and unpaid dividends payable upon such redemption following such surrender.

Except as provided herein, the Corporation shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on Series C Preferred Stock for which a notice of redemption has been given.

(e)  All shares of the Series C Preferred Stock redeemed or repurchased pursuant to this Section 1, or otherwise acquired in any other manner by the Corporation, shall be retired and shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series or class.

8. Voting Rights. The Series C Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights.

9. Conversion.

(a)  Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Original Issue Date, at the option of the holder thereof, into one (I) share of Common Stock. holders shall effect conversions by providing the Corporation with a completed duly executed form of conversion notice attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "Notice of Conversion"). Other than a conversion following a Fundamental Transaction or following a notice provided for, the Notice of Conversion must specify at least a number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of (x) I 00 shares and (y) the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock then held by the holder. Provided the Corporation's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Notice of Conversion may specify, at the holder's election, whether the applicable Conversion Shares shall be credited to the account of the holder's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (a "DWAC Delivery"). The date on which a conversion shall be deemed effective (the "Conversion Date"), shall be defined as the Trading Day that the Notice of Conversion, completed and duly executed, is sent by facsimile to, and received during regular business hours by, the Corporation; provided that the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation within two

(2) Trading Days thereafter. In all other cases, the Conversion Date shall be defined as the Trading Day on which the original shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation. The calculations set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. The following events are deemed as "Fundamental Transactions": (i) a Change of Control; (ii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions; and

(iii)  the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization, or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash, or property.

(b)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion set forth on an applicable Notice of Conversion, such holder (together with such holder's affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including any "group" of which the holder is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock 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 such holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock subject to the Notice of Conversion with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon

(A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series C Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates, and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation (including any warrants) beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. In addition, for purposes hereof, "group" has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. It is understood that the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Investor shall be aggregated with each other Investor for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 9(b), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Corporation's most recent periodic or annual filing with SEC, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation that is filed with the SEC, or (CJ a more recent notice by the Corporation or the Corporation's transfer agent to the holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon the written request of a holder (which may be by email), the Corporation shall, within three (3) Trading Days thereof, confirm in writing to such holder (which may be via email) 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 any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including shares of Series C Preferred Stock, by such holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the holder. 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 pursuant to such Notice of Conversion. The Corporation shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the holder in any Notice of Conversion regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

(i)  Not later than three (3) Trading Days after the applicable Conversion Date, or if the holder requests the issuance of physical certificate(s), two (2) Trading Days after receipt by the Corporation of the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion (the "Share Delivery Date"), the Corporation shall (a) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting holder a physical certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock or (b) in the case of a DWAC Delivery, electronically transfer such Conversion Shares by crediting the account of the holder's prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by or, in the case of a DWAC Delivery, such shares are not electronically delivered to or as directed by, the applicable holder by the Share Delivery Date, the applicable holder shall be entitled to elect to rescind such Conversion Notice by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares or electronic receipt of such shares, as applicable, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to such holder any original Series C Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation and such holder shall promptly return to the Corporation any Common Stock certificates or otherwise direct the return of any shares of Common Stock delivered to the holder through the DWAC system, representing the shares of Series C Preferred Stock unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Corporation.

(ii)  If the Corporation fails to deliver to a holder the applicable certificate or certificates or to effect a DWAC Delivery, as applicable, by the Share Delivery Date (other than a failure caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by a holder to the Corporation), and if after such Share Delivery Date such holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the holder's brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such 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 Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such holder) the amount by which

(x) such holder's total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (I) 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 (BJ 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 or deliver to such holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements. 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 (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 Corporation shall be required to pay such holder $1,000. The holder shall provide the Corporation written notice, within three (3) Trading Days after the occurrence of a Buy-In, indicating the amounts payable to such holder in respect of such Buy-In together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Corporation. 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 Corporation's failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the holder shall not be entitled to both (i) require the reissuance of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for conversion for which such conversion was not timely honored and (ii) receive the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements.

(iii)  The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.

(iv)  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

(v)  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the registered holder(s) of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or entity requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

(d)  Upon each Conversion Date, (i) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the holder's rights as a holder of such converted shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such holder because of a failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designation. In all cases, the holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Corporation's failure to convert Series C Preferred Stock.

10. Record Holders. The Corporation and its transfer agent may deem and treat the record holder of any Series C Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

11.  No Preemptive Rights. No holders of the Series C Preferred Stock will, as holders of Series C Preferred Stock, have any preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or any other security of the Corporation.

12.  Record Holders. The Corporation and the transfer agent for the Series C Preferred Stock may deem and treat the record holder of any Series C Preferred Stock as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Corporation nor the transfer agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

13.  Exclusion of Other Rights. The Series C Preferred Stock shall not have any preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption other than expressly set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and this Certificate of Designation.

14.  Headings of Subdivisions. The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.

15.  Severability of Provisions. If any preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series C Preferred Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designation are invalid, unlawful, or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of Series C Preferred Stock set forth in this Certificate of Designation which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable provision thereof shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect and no preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series C Preferred Stock herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other provision thereof unless so expressed therein.
