Dividends. 1. Dividends paid by a company which is a resident of a Contracting State to a resident of the other Contracting State may be taxed in that other State.

Dividends. (a) Holders shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company, Dividends on the terms described below:
(i) For each period from and including the Original Issue Date, and to but excluding the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date. (the “First Reset Date”), the Company shall pay, subject to Section 4(c), if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds of the Company, on each Dividend Payment Date for the applicable Payment Period or Payment Periods dividends on each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Dividends”) at a rate per annum equal to 7.50% of the Liquidation Preference per share of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Dividend Rate”), payable in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii) below. For each Payment Period beginning on the First Reset Date, the Dividend Rate shall be equal to the prior Payment Period’s Dividend Rate, plus 1.50%. Subject to Section 4(c), to the extent not paid in cash, whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not the payment of such dividends is then permitted under Delaware law, whether or not such dividends are authorized or declared, and whether or not any agreements to which the Company is a party prohibit the current payment of dividends, including any agreement relating to the Company’s indebtedness, Dividends on each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall accrue daily from and after the Original Issue Date of such share and shall compound on a quarterly basis on each Dividend Payment Date (i.e., no dividends shall accrue on other dividends unless and until the first Dividend Payment Date for such other dividends has passed). The Accrued Dividends, to the extent unpaid, shall in all cases be payable upon a Liquidation pursuant to Section 6 or upon any conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 7. Dividend payments shall be aggregated per Holder and shall be made to the nearest cent (with $0.005 being rounded upward).

Dividends. (a) Subject to the preferential rights of the holders of Senior Stock with respect to priority of dividend payments, holders of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board and declared by the Corporation, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, preferential cumulative cash dividends. From the date of original issue of the Series B Preferred Stock (or the date of issue of any Series B Preferred Stock issued after such original issue date) the Corporation shall pay cumulative cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock at the rate of 10.00% per annum of the $10.00 liquidation preference per share (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock) plus the amount of previously accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue and be cumulative from (and including) the date of original issue or, with respect to any accrued dividends that have been paid in cash, the end of the most recent Dividend Period (as defined below) for which dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock have been paid in cash and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on January 5, April 5, July 5 and October 5 of each year or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if paid on such date (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”). A “Dividend Period” is the respective period commencing on and including January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year and ending on and including the day preceding the first day of the next succeeding Dividend Period (other than the initial Dividend Period and the Dividend Period during which any shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation).

Dividends will be payable to holders of record of the Series B Preferred Stock as they appear in the stock records of the Corporation at the close of business on the 25th day of the month preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date, i.e., December 25, March 25, June 25 and September 25 (each, a “Dividend Record Date”).

Dividends. (a) Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock payable semiannually, which dividends shall be declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, out of the assets of the Company legally available therefor, and shall be payable semiannually commencing on the 180th day following the Issue Date (or the following Business Day if any such payment date is not a Business Day) (each such date being referred to herein as a “Dividend Payment Date”) at the rate per annum of 6% per share on the Liquidation Preference; provided that, in the event that on any Dividend Payment Date, the Company is not permitted to declare or pay such dividend or incur such liability either (x) as a matter of law or (y) under the terms of any loan agreement, credit agreement, guaranty, or related agreement, such dividend (a “Deferred Dividend”) shall not be declared by the Board of Directors, shall not be paid or payable on such Dividend Payment Date and no liability shall be incurred in respect thereof, and instead, such Deferred Dividend shall be declared, become payable and be paid and the liability in respect thereof be incurred on the first succeeding Dividend Payment Date on which the Company is not prohibited from declaring, paying and incurring the liability in respect of such Deferred Dividend (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such Deferred Dividend shall be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any dividend which would ordinarily be payable on such succeeding Dividend Payment Date). The amount of dividends payable for any other period that is shorter or longer than a full semiannual dividend period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Commencing on and following the Meeting End Date, in the event that dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock in any dividend period with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, then a dividend shall be payable in respect of each share of Series A Preferred Stock for such period in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount otherwise payable in respect of such share of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the foregoing paragraph and (ii) the product of (A) the aggregate dividends payable per share of Common Stock in such dividend period times (B) the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred Stock is then convertible. For purposes of this Section...
