Preemptive Rights. So long as this Debenture is Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights and no conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. All the outstanding shares of common stock are, and owned by the Holderall shares of common stock offered, when issued and paid for, will be, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the Holder shall rights of the holders of any shares of our preferred stock. Preferred Stock Our Certificate provides that we may issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series as may be determined by our board of directors. Our board of directors has broad discretionary authority with respect to the rights of any new series of preferred stock and may establish the following with respect to the shares in each series, without any vote or action of the stockholders: • the number of shares; • the designations, preferences, privileges, and rights, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences; and • any limits or restrictions. We believe that the ability of our board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock provides us with flexibility in structuring possible future financings and acquisitions, and in meeting other corporate needs that may arise. The authorized shares of preferred stock, as well as authorized and unissued shares of common stock, are available for issuance without action by our stockholders, unless such action is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded. Our board of directors may authorize, without stockholder approval, the issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of holders of common stock. Although our board of directors has no current intention of doing so, it could issue a series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of such series, impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt of our Company. Our board of directors could also issue preferred stock having terms that could discourage an acquisition attempt through which an acquiror may be able to change the composition of our board of directors, including a tender offer or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then-current market price. Any issuance of preferred stock therefore could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.

Its address is 0000 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 and its telephone number is (000) 000-0000.

These provisions may delay, defer or prevent a preemptive right (tender offer or takeover attempt that is, a right stockholder would consider in its best interest. This includes an attempt that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held by stockholders. These provisions are expected to purchase its pro rata share discourage certain types of all capital stock coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. They are also expected to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Company on a fully diluted basis assuming the exercise to negotiate first with our board of this Debenture and of all other outstanding options and warrants to purchase capital stock of the Company, based on its holdings at that date, on the same terms and conditions as those upon which such capital stock is proposed to be sold) to acquire any shares of capital stock of the Company, including unissued shares or any rights or options to purchase such capital stock, or any securities convertible into such capital stock (collectively, "Capital Stock"), authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company for issuance after the date hereof; provided, however, directors. We believe that the foregoing provision shall not apply to any such Capital Stock benefits of these provisions outweigh the Company: (i) issued to effect any mergerpotential disadvantages of discouraging takeover proposals because, consolidationamong other things, recapitalization, or acquisition negotiation of assets or acquisition takeover proposals might result in an improvement of another corporation or other entity; or (ii) issued upon the exercise of warrants or options held by officers, directors or other employees of the Company or warrants issued to Senior Lenders.
