AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

Article 1.
DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 Merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company. By virtue of the Merger, at the Effective Time, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The Company as the surviving company after the Merger is referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”

1.2 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.3 Closing; Effective Time. The consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Maslon LLP, outside counsel to Parent, on a date to be designated jointly by Parent and the Company, which shall be no later than the second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article 6 and Article 7 (other than the conditions, which by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of such conditions). The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.” The Merger shall become effective on the Closing Date at the time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (or at such later time as may be designated jointly by Parent, Merger Sub and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger) The time when the Merger becomes effective is the “Effective Time.”

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; Directors and Officers. At the Effective Time:

(a) The Certificate of Incorporation of the Merger Sub shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation (except that such Certificate of Incorporation shall be amended to provided that the name of the Surviving Corporation will be “CytoBioscience, Inc.”).

(b) The Bylaws of the Merger Sub shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) The directors and officers of the Parent and Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time will be those Persons set forth on Schedule 1.4.

1.5 Conversion of Shares.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any stockholder of the Company:

(i) any shares of Company Stock held by the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and no consideration shall be paid or payable in respect thereof;

(ii) except as provided in clause (i) above and subject to Section 1.5(b) and Section 1.7, all shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the Aggregate Merger Consideration set forth on Schedule 1.5; and

(iii) each share of the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) No fractional shares of Parent Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. With respect to each Company stockholder, the Aggregate Merger Consideration to which such stockholder is entitled shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share of Parent Stock.

1.6 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) except as provided in Section 1.5(a)(i), all shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of such shares of Company Stock (the “Company Stockholders”) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, except the right to receive their respective portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration or such consideration as determined in accordance with Section 1.7; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any shares of Company Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time.

1.7 Company Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares in accordance with the applicable provisions of the DGCL (such shares of Company Stock being referred to collectively as the “Company Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the DGCL with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into a right to receive their respective portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration, but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to the DGCL, or if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by the DGCL, such holder’s Company Dissenting Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive such holder’s portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.5, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the stock certificate formerly representing such Company Dissenting Shares. The Company shall provide Parent prompt written notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Stock, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Company prior to the Effective Time that relates to such demand, and the Company shall have the opportunity and right to direct all negotiations and Legal Proceedings with respect to such demands; provided that Parent shall have the right to consent to any final resolution of such demands, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Except with the prior written consent of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

1.8 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., Parent’s transfer agent, or another bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Company, to act as exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) and shall enter into an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Parent and the Company with the Exchange Agent relating to the services to be performed by the Exchange Agent.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to the Persons who were record holders of valid certificates previously representing any shares of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each a “Company Stock Certificate”): (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Parent may reasonably specify and the Company shall reasonably approve prior to the Effective Time (including a provision confirming that delivery of Company Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Stock Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of such Company Stock Certificates to the Exchange Agent); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Stock Certificates in exchange for certificates representing Parent Stock. Upon surrender of a Company Stock Certificate to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent: (A) the holder of such Company Stock Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor one or more certificates representing the number of shares of Parent Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.5 (or in lieu of such certificate(s), confirmation of the issuance of such Parent Stock via book entry in the books of the Exchange Agent); and (B) the Company Stock Certificate so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.8(b), each Company Stock Certificate shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive a portion of the Aggregate Merger Consideration as set forth in Section 1.5. In any matters relating to Company Stock Certificates, Parent and the Exchange Agent may rely conclusively upon the record of stockholders maintained by the Company containing the names and addresses of the holders of record of Company Stock at the Effective Time, except to the extent such names or addresses are modified by any stockholders in their respective letters of transmittal. Parent shall not be obligated to deliver stock certificates (if any) representing Aggregate Merger Consideration to which any former holder of Company Stock is entitled until such holder surrenders the appropriate documentation required hereunder.

(c) Shares of Parent Stock issued in the Merger will not be transferable except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) upon receipt by Parent of a written opinion of counsel for the holder reasonably satisfactory to Parent to the effect that the proposed transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and relevant state securities Legal Requirements. Restrictive legends shall be placed on all certificates (if any) or book entries of the Parent’s transfer agent, representing shares of Parent Stock issued in the Merger, substantially as follows:

NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS IN EFFECT THEREUNDER AND ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS (SUCH FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS, THE “SECURITIES LAWS”) OR (B) IF THE CORPORATION HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, WHICH OPINION AND COUNSEL SHALL BE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES LAWS.

Except as otherwise provided by applicable Legal Requirements, the failure of any stock certificate representing Parent Stock to contain a legend in substantially the form set forth above shall not affect the enforceability of restrictions set forth in this Section 1.8(c).

(d) If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition to the issuance of any certificate representing Parent Common Stock, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Parent and the Exchange Agent reasonably agree to direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(e) Any holders of Company Stock Certificates who have not previously surrendered their Company Stock Certificates in accordance with this Section 1.8 shall thereafter look only to Parent, and not Exchange Agent, for, and be entitled to receive from Parent, satisfaction of their claims for Parent Stock, and any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares of Parent Stock.

(f) Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Legal Requirement or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Body, (i) such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid, and (ii) Parent, the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall promptly deliver the amounts so deducted or withheld to the applicable Taxing or other Governmental Body.

(g) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock or to any other Person with respect to any shares of Parent Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property Legal Requirement, escheat Legal Requirement or other similar Legal Requirement.

1.9 Company Warrants. Prior to the Closing, all Company Warrants shall have been terminated in their entireties or exercised in exchange for the right to acquire that number of whole shares of Parent Series E Preferred Stock indicated on Schedule 1.9. All Company Warrants not listed on Schedule 1.9 shall be terminated in their entireties. The Parent Series E Preferred Stock issued under this Section 1.9 is part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration.

1.10 Company Notes Payable The Company represents that all of the Company Notes Payable are set forth on Schedule 1.10. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Parent shall issue the number of shares of the Parent Series C Preferred Stock and number of the shares of the Parent Series D Preferred Stock indicated on Schedule 1.10 to the holders of the Company Notes Payable indicated on Schedule 1.10 in full satisfaction of any and all liabilities owed to the holders of such Company Notes Payable, including all principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that Parent shall have no obligation to issue any Parent Series D Preferred Stock to a holder of any Company Note Payable unless and until the holder of such Company Note Payable delivers to Parent a conversion agreement in form satisfactory to Parent. The Parent Series D Preferred Stock issued under this Section 1.10 is part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration.

1.11 Company Equity Awards; Company Equity Plan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, all Company Equity Awards listed on Schedule 1.11 shall be, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, or any other person, converted into Parent Series E Preferred Stock in accordance with this Section 1.11. As of the Effective Time, each such Company Equity Award as so converted shall be the right to acquire that number of whole shares of Parent Series E Preferred Stock indicated on Schedule 1.11. All Company Equity Awards not listed on Schedule 1.11 shall be terminated in their entireties, and the Company Equity Plan shall be terminated. The Parent Series E Preferred Stock issued under this Section 1.11 is part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration.

1.12 Reserved.

1.13 Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

(c) If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then, as long as the indemnifying party is reasonably contesting such claim in good faith, using its commercially reasonable efforts, the indemnified party shall not admit any Liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third-Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent, and the indemnified party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of the Third-Party Claim the indemnifying party may recommend which releases the indemnified party unconditionally and completely in connection with such Third-Party Claim and which does not adversely affect the indemnified party in any manner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party shall have the right to pay or settle any such claim, provided that in such event it shall waive any right to indemnity therefor by the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the indemnified party of a written release from all Liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim.

(d) If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the indemnified party may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, settling such claim or litigation. The indemnified party’s defense of such Third-Party Claim shall not prohibit any remedies of the indemnified party against the indemnifying parties, and the indemnified party shall be permitted during the course of or after the resolution of such Third-Party Claim to seek recovery of the Parent Losses or Company Stockholder Losses, as applicable, from the indemnifying party to the extent the indemnified party is entitled hereunder.

9.6 Survival of Indemnification Obligations. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement, excluding the Company Fundamental Representations and the Parent Fundamental Representations, shall survive for a period of 18 months following the Closing Date; provided, that all of the foregoing representations and warranties shall further survive during the duration of any Legal Proceedings (including, without limitation, any appeals) with respect to any claim for indemnification for which any indemnified party has provided a Claim Notice to any indemnifying party prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period. All obligations and covenants under this Agreement, including, without limitation indemnification, and all of the Company Fundamental Representations and the Parent Fundamental Representations, shall forever survive the Closing.

9.7 Qualifications. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in calculating the amount of any Parent Losses and Company Stockholder Losses incurred as a result of any breach of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement or in other documents executed or delivered by the parties in connection with the Merger and Contemplated Transactions, any qualification with respect to materiality, Company Material Adverse Effect, Parent Material Adverse Effect or other similar qualification shall be disregarded.

9.8 Exclusive Remedy. The parties acknowledge and agree that, after the Closing, the indemnification provisions in this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for (a) claims of intentional fraud or knowing misrepresentation or (b) injunctive relief permitted by Section 10.5. Except for claims of intentional fraud or knowing misrepresentation, the Parties may not avoid the limitations on liability, recovery and recourse set forth in this Article 9 by seeking damages for breach of contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory or liability.

The Company Stockholders acknowledge that Parent and Merger Sub will be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without independent investigation, any act, notice, instruction or communication of the Stockholder Representative as provided in this Section 10.1 as the acts of the Company Stockholders and will not be liable in any manner whatsoever for any of Parent or Merger Sub’s actions, as applicable, taken or not taken in reliance upon the acts or omissions or communications or writings given or executed by the Stockholder Representative.

(b) The Company’s stockholders agree that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, and are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Stockholder Representative and will survive the death, incapacity, bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of any Company’s stockholder. All decisions and actions by the Stockholder Representative will be binding upon the Company’s stockholders, and no Company stockholder will have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. The Stockholder Representative will have no duties or obligations hereunder except those specifically set forth herein and such duties and obligations will be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Company’s stockholders will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholder Representative against all Liabilities incurred by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the performance of his, her or its duties as the Stockholder Representative, including, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding to which the Stockholder Representative is made a party by reason of the fact that the Stockholder Representative is or was acting as the Stockholder Representative under this Agreement. Neither the Stockholder Representative nor any agent employed by the Stockholder Representative will incur any Liability to any Company stockholder relating to the performance of Stockholder Representative’s duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud or bad faith. The Stockholder Representative will have no Liability in respect of any action, claim or proceeding brought against the Stockholder Representative by any Company stockholder if the Stockholder Representative took or omitted taking any action in good faith.

(c) The provisions of this Section 10.1 will be binding on the executors, heirs, legal representatives, personal representatives, successor trustees, and successors of each Company Stockholder, and any references in this Agreement to a “Company Stockholder” means and includes the successors to such Person’s rights hereunder, whether pursuant to a testamentary disposition, the Legal Requirements of descent and distribution or otherwise.

(d) If the Stockholder Representative shall die, become disabled or otherwise be unable or unwilling to fulfill his, her or its responsibilities as agent of the Company’s stockholders, then a majority in interest of the Company’s stockholders (based on the ownership of the Company Stock set forth on Schedule 1.4) shall appoint a successor agent for the Company Stockholders. The Person serving as the Stockholder Representative may be replaced from time to time by the holders of a majority in interest of the Company Stockholders (based on the ownership of the Company Stock set forth on Schedule 1.4). In either case, the successor Stockholder Representative shall promptly notify Parent in writing of the identity of such successor Stockholder Representative. Any such successor shall become the “Stockholder Representative” for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) All expenses incurred by the Stockholder Representative in connection with the performance of his, her or its duties as Stockholder Representative shall be borne and paid exclusively by the Company Stockholders, pursuant to their respective ownership of Company Stock (on an as-converted basis) immediately prior to the Effective Time.

10.2 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended with the approval of the respective Boards of Directors of the Company and Parent at any time without approval of any of the Company’s stockholders; provided, however, that no amendment shall be made which by applicable Legal Requirement requires further approval of the Company’s stockholders without the further approval of such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

10.3 Waiver

(a) Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any party hereto may: (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties to this Agreement; (ii) waive any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the other party in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; and (iii) waive compliance with any covenant, obligation or condition for the benefit of such party contained in this Agreement.

(b) No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.

(c) No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Counterparts; Exchanges by Facsimile or Electronic Delivery. This Agreement and the other agreements, exhibits and disclosure schedules referred to herein constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms (it being understood that no provision in this Agreement or in the Confidentiality Agreement shall limit any party’s rights or remedies in the case of fraud). This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by other electronic delivery shall be sufficient to bind the parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

10.5 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Specific Performance; Remedies. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Legal Requirements of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Legal Requirements that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Legal Requirements thereof. In any action between any of the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the Contemplated Transactions: (a) each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota; and (b) each of the parties irrevocably waives the right to trial by jury. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to the remedies set forth in Article 9. Each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with seeking such injunction or injunctions.

10.6 Assignability; No Third Party Rights. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any party’s rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by such party without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties shall be void and of no effect. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except (i) as specifically provided in Section 5.2, (ii) after the Effective Time, with respect to the payment of the Aggregate Merger Consideration to Company Stockholders pursuant to Article 1 hereof, (iii) with respect to the holders of any Company Dissenting Shares, and (iv) the Company Stockholders’ Indemnified Party and the Parent’s Indemnified Parties.

(a) Redemption at the Corporation’s Option. The Corporation shall have an ongoing right to purchase all or any portion of the outstanding shares of the Series D Preferred Stock on the terms and conditions contained in this Section. If the Corporation exercises such option to purchase as to only a portion of the then-outstanding shares, such purchase shall be made ratably from all holders of Series D Preferred Stock in proportion to their percentage ownership of the aggregate amount of the then-outstanding Series D Preferred Stock.

(b) Notice. The Corporation shall notify all holders of record of Series D Preferred Stock of its election to exercise its redemption right by sending notice in writing to such holders at their last address as shown on the stock books of the Corporation. The Corporation shall state in such notice the date upon which it desires to redeem such shares (the “Redemption Date”), the percentage of the then-outstanding Series D Preferred Stock which it desires to redeem, the Redemption Price to be paid in respect of each share of Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed; and (iv) the place or places where certificates representing such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price allocable to such holder’s shares to be redeemed.

(c) Redemption Price. Any redemption of Series D Preferred Stock effected by the Corporation shall be made out of funds legally available for redemptions at a price per share equal to the Series D Preferential Amount on the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). The Corporation shall pay the Redemption Price in full on the Redemption Date.

(d) Surrender of Shares. Upon a redemption, the holders shall surrender to the Corporation the certificates representing the shares of Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed, duly endorsed or assigned to the Corporation, and the holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive payment in cash of the Redemption Price. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate representing the unredeemed shares. If any shares of Series D Preferred Stock are redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 and the holder thereof fails to surrender the certificate representing such shares in accordance with this Certificate, the Corporation may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have, cancel on its books such certificate representing such shares to be redeemed.

(e) Shares No Longer Outstanding. On the Redemption Date, (i) dividends on each share of Series D Preferred Stock redeemed hereunder shall cease to accrue, (ii) such share shall be deemed no longer outstanding, and (iii) all rights of the holder of such share as a holder of such share (except the right to receive from the Corporation the monies payable upon surrender of the certificates evidencing such share and redemption of such share) shall cease.

7. Protective Restrictions. At any time when shares of Series D Preferred Stock are outstanding, except where the vote or written consent of the holders of a greater number of shares of the Corporation is required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, and in addition to any other vote required by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, without the affirmative vote of the Required Holders, given at a meeting or by written consent in lieu of a meeting, consenting or voting (as the case may be) separately as a class, the Corporation will not:

(a) create or authorize the creation of any additional class or series of shares of stock, or issue any shares thereof, in each case other than Junior Stock and Parent Series D Preferred Stock;

(b) amend, alter or repeal this Certificate or the Certificate of Incorporation, in a manner that is adverse to the holders of Series D Preferred Stock in any respect, provided, however, that this restriction shall in no way restrict the Corporation’s ability to create the Parent Series C Stock or Parent Series E Preferred Stock and fix the designation and amount and the voting powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions, thereof (including without limitation filing a certificate of designation with respect thereto);

(c) directly or indirectly redeem, purchase, or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of its capital stock (or pay, set aside or make available any monies for a sinking fund or otherwise for the purchase, redemption or acquisition thereof) except for (i) the redemption of Parent Series C Preferred Stock, (ii) the redemption of Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to and as provided in this Certificate, or (ii) the redemption or repurchase of capital stock of the Corporation, or securities convertible or exchangeable into such capital stock, issued pursuant to the Corporation’s equity-based compensation plans;

(e) declare, pay or make any dividends or other distributions on any Junior Stock (or pay, set aside or make available any monies for a sinking fund or otherwise for the payment thereof); or

(f) enter into any agreement, arrangement, undertaking, or commitment to take any of the foregoing steps or actions.

9. No Reissuance of Series D Preferred Stock. No share or shares of Series D Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation by reason of redemption or otherwise shall be reissued, and all such shares shall be cancelled, retired, and eliminated from the shares which the Corporation shall be authorized to issue. The Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate corporate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock accordingly.
