Restriction on Conversions. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, no Holder will be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock, and no conversion of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock shall take place, to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt (or conversion) would cause such Holder and its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), in each case together with any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with such Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) to beneficially own shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
