The execution and delivery by Investor of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which Investor is a party, the performance by Investor of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation by Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or individual action on the part of Investor. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Investor, and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Investor enforceable against Investor in accordance with its terms. When each other Transaction Document to which Investor is or will be a party has been duly executed and delivered by Investor (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each other party thereto), such Transaction Document will constitute a legal and binding obligation of Investor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

Section 4.02 No Conflicts; Consents. The execution, delivery and performance by Investor of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not: (a) if Investor is an entity, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of, or default under, any provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents of Investor; (b) conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of any Law or Governmental Order applicable to Investor; or (c) except as set forth in Section 4.02 of the Disclosure Schedules, require the consent, notice or other action by any Person under any Contract to which Investor is a party.

Section 4.03 Accredited Investor; Investment Purpose. Investor represents and warrants that Investor is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, 17 CFR § 501(a). Investor is acquiring the Shares solely for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof. Investor acknowledges that the Shares are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (defined below) or any state securities laws, and that the Shares may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and subject to state securities laws and regulations, as applicable.

Section 4.04 Brokers. Except as set forth in Section 4.04 of the Disclosure Schedules, no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Investor.

Section 4.05 Inherent Risk. The Investor recognizes that the purchase of the Shares involves a high degree of risk including, but not limited to, the following risks: (a) an investment in the Shares is speculative, and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Shares; (b) the Investor may not be able to liquidate or transfer an investment in the Shares in a timely manner or at all; and (c) transferability of the Shares is restricted as set forth in the Company’s governing documents.

Section 4.06 Foreign Investors. If the Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Investor hereby represents that such Investor has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares. The Investor’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Investor’s jurisdiction.

Section 4.07 No General Solicitation. Neither the Investor, nor, if applicable, any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners, has either directly or indirectly, including through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.

Section 4.08 No “Bad Actor” Disqualification Events. No Investor nor, if applicable, any of an Investor’s directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which such Investor invests or otherwise holds securities, general partners or managing members is subject to any Disqualification Event, except for Disqualification Events covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”) and disclosed in writing in reasonable detail to the Company. As used herein, “Disqualification Event” means any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act.

Section 4.09 Oral Statements. IN MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES, INVESTOR IS NOT RELYING ON ORAL STATEMENTS MADE BY REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY OF THE COMPANY OR THE PLACEMENT AGENT, ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER PERSON. INVESTOR’S INVESTMENT DECISION IS BASED SOLELY ON WRITTEN INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY.

Section 4.10 Additional Acknowledgement. Investor understands and acknowledges that the Shares may be purchased by officers, directors, employees and Affiliates of the Company, and by other Persons who will receive fees or other compensation or gain dependent upon the success of this offering, including, without limitation, the Placement Agent and its employees and Affiliates. Such purchases may be made at any time, and will be counted in determining whether any required minimum amount has been met for any purpose. Investors should not expect that the sale of sufficient Shares to reach any specified amount, or in excess of any amount, indicates that such sale has been made to Investors who have no financial or other interest in this offering, or who otherwise are exercising independent investment discretion. The sale of any particular amount of Shares, while desirable for purposes of the business operations of the Company, is not designed as a protection to Investors, to indicate that an Investor’s investment decision is shared by other unaffiliated Investors, or to indicate that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient funding, though the issuance and sale of the Shares, other securities or other means, when needed to fund any programs, initiatives or continued operations of the Company. Because there may be substantial purchases by officers, directors, employees and Affiliates of the Company, or by other Persons who will receive fees or other compensation or gain dependent upon the success of this offering, no Investor should place (and each Investor hereby represents that it is not placing) any reliance on the sale of any amount of Shares as an indication of the merits of this offering. Each Investor must make and is making such Investor’s own investment decision as to the merits of this offering.

If the Corporation declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock, whether such dividend or distribution is payable in cash, securities, or other property, including the purchase or redemption by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries of shares of Common Stock for cash, securities, or property, but excluding (i) any dividend or distribution payable on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock and (ii) any repurchases of Common Stock held by employees or consultants of the Corporation upon termination of their employment or services pursuant to agreements providing for such repurchase, the Corporation shall simultaneously declare and pay a dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis with the Common Stock determined on an as-converted basis assuming all Shares had been converted pursuant to Section 8 as of immediately prior to the record date of the applicable dividend (or if no record date is fixed, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined).

4.2 Partial Dividend Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of dividends then accrued and accumulated with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the holders thereof based upon the aggregate accrued and accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Shares held by each such holder.

5. Liquidation.

5.1 Liquidation; Deemed Liquidation.

(a) Liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (collectively with a Deemed Liquidation, a “Liquidation”), the holders of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, subject to the rights of any Senior Securities but before any payment shall be made to the holders of Junior Securities by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Shares held by such holder, plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends on all such Shares (whether or not declared).

(b) Deemed Liquidation. The occurrence of a Change of Control (such event, a “Deemed Liquidation”) shall be deemed a Liquidation for purposes of this Section 5, unless the Change of Control is approved by the Requisite Holders. Upon the consummation of any such Deemed Liquidation, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall, in consideration for cancellation of their Shares, be entitled to the same rights such holders are entitled to under this Section 5 upon the occurrence of a Liquidation, including the right to receive the full preferential payment from the Corporation of the amounts payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock under Section 5.1(a) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.1(b) shall limit in any respect the right of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock to elect the benefits of either this Section 5 or Section 8.6(f) in connection with any Change of Control.

(c) Deemed Liquidation Procedures. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Corporation shall take such actions as are necessary to give effect to the provisions of Section 5.1(b), including, without limitation, (i) in the case of a Change of Control structured as a merger, consolidation, or similar reorganization, causing the definitive agreement relating to such transaction to provide for a rate at which the Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are converted into or exchanged for cash, new securities, or other property, or (ii) in the case of a Change of Control structured as an asset sale, as promptly as practicable following such transaction, dissolving the Corporation and distributing the assets of the Corporation in accordance with applicable law and, in the case of both (i) and (ii), giving effect to the preferences and priorities set forth in Section 3 and Section 5. The Corporation shall promptly provide to the holders of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock such information concerning the terms of such Change of Control, and the value of the assets of the Corporation as may reasonably be requested by the holders of Series B Preferred Stock.

5.2 [Reserved]

5.3 Insufficient Assets. If upon any Liquidation (or Deemed Liquidation) the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of the Shares of Series B Preferred Stock the full preferential amount to which they are entitled under Section 5.1, (a) the holders of the Shares shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation in proportion to the respective full preferential amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the Series B Preferred Stock in the aggregate upon such Liquidation (or Deemed Liquidation) if all amounts payable on or with respect to such Shares were paid in full, and (b) the Corporation shall not make or agree to make any payments to the holders of Junior Securities.

5.4 Notice.

(a) Notice Requirement. In the event of any Liquidation (or Deemed Liquidation), the Corporation shall, within ten (10) days of the date the Board approves such action, or no later than twenty (20) days of any stockholders’ meeting called to approve such action, or within twenty (20) days of the commencement of any involuntary proceeding, whichever is earlier, give each holder of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock written notice of the proposed action. Such written notice shall describe the material terms and conditions of such proposed action, including a description of the stock, cash, and property to be received by the holders of Shares upon consummation of the proposed action and the date of delivery thereof. If any material change in the facts set forth in the initial notice shall occur, the Corporation shall promptly give written notice to each holder of Shares of such material change.

(b) Notice Waiting Period. The Corporation shall not consummate any voluntary Liquidation (or Deemed Liquidation) of the Corporation before the expiration of ten (10) days after the mailing of initial written notice required by Section 5.4(a) of this Agreement; provided, that any such period may be shortened upon the written consent of the holders of the Requisite Holders.

6. Voting.

6.1 Voting Generally. Each holder of outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, with respect to any and all matters presented to the stockholders of the Corporation for their action or consideration (whether at a meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, by written action of stockholders in lieu of a meeting or otherwise), except as provided by law or by the provisions of Section 6.2 below. In any such vote, each Share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Share is convertible pursuant to Section 8 herein as of the record date for such vote or written consent or, if there is no specified record date, as of the date of such vote or written consent. Each holder of outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of all stockholder meetings (or requests for written consent) in accordance with the Corporation’s bylaws.

(e) declare bankruptcy, dissolve, liquidate, or wind up the affairs of the Corporation;

(f) effect, or enter into any agreement to effect, a Change of Control. (g) agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.

8. Conversion.

8.1 Right to Convert; Automatic Conversion.

(a) Right to Convert. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8, at any time and from time to time on or after the Date of Issuance, any holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right by written election to the Corporation to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock (including any fraction of a Share) held by such holder along with the aggregate accrued or accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon into an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (including any fraction of a share) as follows by (i) multiplying the number of Shares (including any fraction of a Share) to be converted by the Liquidation Value thereof, (ii) adding to the result all accrued and accumulated and unpaid dividends on such Shares to be converted, and then (ii) dividing the result by the applicable Conversion Price as defined in this Section 8.1. For all holders of Shares whose initial Date of Issuance was on or before June 20, 2023, the initial conversion price per Share (the “Conversion Price”) for all Shares held by such holder (including Shares with a Date of Issuance after June 20, 2023, shall be the quotient of One Hundred Eighty Million Dollars ($180,000,000.00) divided by

the Fully Diluted Shares, subject to adjustment as applicable in accordance with Section 8.6 below. For all holders of Shares whose initial Date of Issuance was after June 20, 2023, the initial Conversion Price for all Shares held by such holder shall be the quotient of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000.00) divided by the Fully Diluted Shares, subject to adjustment as applicable in accordance with Section 8.6 below. However, if the Business Combination Agreement fails to close prior to September 15, 2023, or is otherwise terminated, then the initial Conversion Price for all Shares entitled to convert under this Section 8.1 shall be the quotient of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000.00) divided by the Fully Diluted Shares, subject to adjustment as applicable in accordance with Section 8.6 below.

Furthermore, in the event of a default by the Corporation or Xxxxx Xxxxxxx of their obligations pursuant to Section 2.05 of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of June 16, 2023 by and among the Corporation, Xxxxxxx Investment Group, LLC, Calidi Cure, LLC and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, the initial Conversion Price for all Shares entitled to convert under this Section 8.1 shall be the quotient of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) divided by the Fully Diluted Shares, subject to adjustment as applicable in accordance with Section 8.6 below.

(b) Automatic Conversion. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8, (i) in connection with, and on the closing of, the Business Combination Agreement or a Qualified Public Offering by the Corporation, (ii) upon the election of the Requisite Holders, or (iii) on June 30, 2025, all of the outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock (including any fraction of a Share) held by stockholders shall automatically convert along with the aggregate accrued or accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon into an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (including any fraction of a Share) as is determined by (i) multiplying the number of Shares (including any fraction of a Share) to be converted by the Liquidation Value thereof, (ii) adding to the result all accrued and accumulated and unpaid dividends on such Shares to be converted, and then (ii) dividing the result by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect. If a closing of the Business Combination Agreement or a Qualified Public Offering occurs, such automatic conversion of all of the outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been converted into shares of Common Stock as of immediately prior to such closing.

8.2 Procedures for Conversion; Effect of Conversion.

(a) Procedures for Holder Conversion. In order to effectuate a conversion of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8.1(a), a holder shall (a) submit a written election to the Corporation that such holder elects to convert Shares, the number of Shares elected to be converted and (b) surrender, along with such written election, to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing the Shares being converted, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto) or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen, or missing, accompanied by an affidavit of loss executed by the holder. The conversion of such Shares hereunder shall be deemed effective as of the date of surrender of such Series B Preferred Stock certificate or certificates or delivery of such affidavit of loss. Upon the receipt by the Corporation of a written election and the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Corporation shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within [ten (10) days] thereafter) deliver to the relevant holder (a) a certificate in such holder’s name (or the name of such xxxxxx’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of shares of Common Stock (including any fractional share)

to which such holder shall be entitled upon conversion of the applicable Shares as calculated pursuant to Section 8.1(a) and, if applicable (b) a certificate in such holder’s (or the name of such holder’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock (including any fractional share) represented by the certificate or certificates delivered to the Corporation for conversion but otherwise not elected to be converted pursuant to the written election. All shares of capital stock issued hereunder by the Corporation shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges, and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof.

(b) Procedures for Automatic Conversion. As of the closing of the Business Combination Agreement or a Qualified Public Offering, the election of the Requisite Holders, or on June 30, 2025, all outstanding Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted to the number of shares of Common Stock calculated pursuant to Section 8.1(b) without any further action by the relevant holder of such Shares or the Corporation. As promptly as practicable following such closing (but in any event within five (5) days thereafter), the Corporation shall send each holder of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock written notice of such event. Upon receipt of such notice, each holder shall surrender to the Corporation the certificate or certificates representing the Shares being converted, duly assigned, or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto) or, in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen, or missing, accompanied by an affidavit of loss executed by the holder. Upon the surrender of such certificate(s) and accompanying materials, the Corporation shall as promptly as practicable (but in any event within ten (10) days thereafter) deliver to the relevant holder a certificate in such holder’s name (or the name of such xxxxxx’s designee as stated in the written election) for the number of shares of Common Stock (or shares issued in exchange for such Common Stock pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement) to which such holder shall be entitled upon conversion of the applicable Shares. All shares of Common Stock issued hereunder by the Corporation shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, free and clear of all taxes, liens, charges, and encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof.

(c) Effect of Conversion. All Shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted as provided in this Section 8.2 shall no longer be deemed outstanding as of the effective time of the applicable conversion and all rights with respect to such Shares shall immediately cease and terminate as of such time, other than the right of the holder to receive shares of Common Stock (or shares issued in exchange for such Common Stock pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement) in exchange therefor.

8.3 Reservation of Stock. The Corporation shall at all times when any Shares of Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of capital stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8, taking into account any adjustment to such number of shares so issuable in accordance with Section 8.6 hereof. The Corporation shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Corporation upon each such issuance). The Corporation shall not close its books against the transfer of any of its capital stock in any manner which would prevent the timely conversion of the Shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

8.4 No Charge or Payment. The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8.1 shall be made without payment of additional consideration by, or other charge, cost, or tax to, the holder in respect thereof.

8.5 [RESERVED]

8.6 Adjustment to Conversion Price and Number of Conversion Shares. In order to prevent dilution of the conversion rights granted under this Section 8, the Conversion Price and the number of Conversion Shares issuable on conversion of the Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 8.6.

(a) Adjustment to Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock. Except as provided in Section 8.6(c) and except in the case of an event described in either Section 8.6(e) or Section 8.6(f), if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance, issue or sell, or in accordance with Section 8.6(d) is deemed to have issued or sold (“New Issue”), any shares of Common Stock without consideration or for consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale), then immediately upon such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale) shall be adjusted (but in no event increased) to a Conversion Price using the following formula:

CP2 = CP₁ * (A+B) / (A+C)

Where:


CP₂		= Conversion Price in effect immediately after the New Issue

CP₁		= Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to New Issue

A		= Number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be outstanding immediately prior to New Issue (includes all shares of outstanding common stock, all Convertible Securities on an as-converted basis, and all Options on an as-exercised basis)

B		= Aggregate consideration received by the Corporation with respect to the New Issue divided by CP1

C		= Number of shares of stock issued in the New Issue.

(b) Adjustment to Number of Conversion Shares upon Adjustment to Conversion Price. Upon any and each adjustment of the Conversion Price as provided in Section 8.6(a), the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock immediately prior to any such adjustment shall be increased to a number of Conversion Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing:

(i) the product of (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to any such adjustment multiplied by (B) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock immediately prior to any such adjustment; by

(ii) the Conversion Price resulting from such adjustment.

(c) Exceptions To Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, there shall be no adjustment to the Conversion Price or the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to any Excluded Issuance.

(d) Effect of Certain Events on Adjustment to Conversion Price. For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under Section 8.6(a) hereof, the following shall be applicable:

(i) Issuance of Options. If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance, in any manner grant or sell (whether directly or by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any Options, whether or not such Options or the right to convert or exchange any Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options are immediately exercisable, and the price per share (determined as provided in this paragraph and in Section 8.6(d)(iv)) for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting or sale of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of granting or sale of such Options (and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price under Section 8.6(a)), at a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration received for purposes of Section 8.6(a)) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the granting or sale of all such Options, plus (y) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of all such Options, plus (z), in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of all such Options. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.6(d)(iii), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of Common Stock or of Convertible Securities upon exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.

(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance, in any manner grant or sell (whether directly or by assumption in a merger or otherwise) any Convertible Securities, whether or not the right to convert or exchange any such Convertible Securities is immediately exercisable, and the price per share (determined as provided in this paragraph and in Section 8.6(d)(iv)) for which Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting or sale of such Convertible Securities, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of granting or sale of such Convertible Securities (and thereafter shall be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of adjusting the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 8.6(a)), at a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the sum (which sum shall constitute the applicable consideration received for purposes of Section 8.6(a)) of (x) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the granting or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus (y) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.6(d)(iii), (A) no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and (B) no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of the issue or sale of Convertible Securities upon exercise of any Options to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the Conversion Price have been made pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 8.6(d).

(iii) Change in Terms of Options or Convertible Securities. Upon any change in any of (A) the total amount received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the granting or sale of any Options or Convertible Securities referred to in Section 8.6(d)(i) or Section 8.6(d)(ii) hereof, (B) the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the exercise of any Options or upon the issuance, conversion, or exchange of any Convertible Securities referred to in Section 8.6(d)(i) or Section 8.6(d)(ii) hereof, (C) the rate at which Convertible Securities referred to in Section 8.6(d)(i) or Section 8.6(d)(ii) hereof are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or (D) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with any Options referred to in Section 8.6(d)(i) hereof or any Convertible Securities referred to in Section 8.6(d)(ii) hereof (in each case, other than in connection with an Excluded Issuance), then (whether or not the original issuance or sale of such Options or Convertible Securities resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 8.6) the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall be adjusted or readjusted, as applicable, to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.6 had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed consideration, conversion rate, or maximum number of shares, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued, or sold, but only if as a result of such adjustment or readjustment the Conversion Price then in effect is reduced, and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock immediately prior to any such adjustment or readjustment shall be correspondingly adjusted or readjusted pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.6(b).

(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance, issue or sell, or is deemed to have issued or sold in accordance with Section 8.6(d), any shares of Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities: (A) for cash, the consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the net amount received by the Corporation therefor; (B) for consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Corporation shall be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of marketable securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Corporation shall be the market price (as reflected on any securities exchange, quotation system, or association or similar pricing system covering such security) for such securities as of the end of business on the date of receipt of such securities; (C) for no specifically allocated consideration in connection with an issuance or sale of other securities of the Corporation, together comprising one integrated transaction, the amount of the consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation in such transaction as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issued in such transaction; or (D) to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation, the amount of consideration therefor shall be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities, as the case may be, issued to such owners. The net amount of any cash consideration and the fair value of any consideration other than cash or marketable securities shall be determined in good faith jointly by the Board and the Requisite Holders.

(v) Record Date. For purposes of any adjustment to the Conversion Price or the number of Conversion Shares in accordance with this Section 8.6, in case the Corporation shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

(vi) Treasury Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Corporation or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the disposition of any such shares (other than the cancellation or retirement thereof or the transfer of such shares among the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries) shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock for the purpose of this Section 8.6.

(e) Adjustment to Conversion Price and Conversion Shares upon Dividend, Subdivision, or Combination of Common Stock. If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Date of Issuance, (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation payable in shares of Common Stock or in Options or Convertible Securities, or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization, or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution, or subdivision

shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be proportionately increased. If the Corporation at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split, or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 8.6(e) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision, or combination becomes effective.

(f) Adjustment to Conversion Price and Conversion Shares upon Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, or Merger. In the event of any (i) capital reorganization of the Corporation, (ii) reclassification of the stock of the Corporation (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), (iii) consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another Person other than pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (iv) sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets to another Person or (v) other similar transaction (other than any such transaction covered by Section 8.6(e)), in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities, or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, each Share of Series B Preferred Stock shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of Conversion Shares then convertible for such Share, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or assets of the Corporation or of the successor Person resulting from such transaction to which such Share would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction if the Share had been converted in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of Conversion Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such conversion (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of such Share, if any); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made with respect to such holder’s rights under this Certificate of Designation to insure that the provisions of this Section 8 hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to the Series B Preferred Stock in relation to any shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter acquirable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock (including, in the case of any consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction in which the successor or purchasing Person is other than the Corporation, an immediate adjustment in the Conversion Price to the value per share for the Common Stock reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction, and a corresponding immediate adjustment to the number of Conversion Shares acquirable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock without regard to any limitations or restrictions on conversion, if the value so reflected is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction). The provisions of this Section 8.6(f) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, or similar transactions. The Corporation shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor Person (if other than the Corporation) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate of Designation,

the obligation to deliver to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock such shares of stock, securities, or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders shall be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 8.6(f), each holder of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the provisions of Section 5.1(b) (if applicable to such event or transaction or Section 8 hereunder, instead of giving effect to the provisions contained in this Section 8.6(f) with respect to such holder’s Series B Preferred Stock.

(g) Certain Events. If any event of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 8.6 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights, or other rights with equity features) occurs, then the Board shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price and the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of Shares of Series B Preferred Stock so as to protect the rights of the holder of such Shares in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Section 8; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall increase the Conversion Price or decrease the number of Conversion Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 8.
