Relative Rights and Preferences Unless the establishing resolution or any other resolution adopted pursuant to Section 2.3 otherwise provides, Shares of each Portfolio or Class thereof established hereunder shall have the following relative rights and preferences:
(a) Except as set forth in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.5, each Share of a Portfolio, regardless of Class, shall represent an equal pro rata interest in the assets belonging to such Portfolio and shall have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, preferences, powers, restrictions, limitations, qualifications and designations and terms and conditions with each other Share of such Portfolio.
(b) Shareholders shall have no preemptive or other right to subscribe to any additional Shares or other securities issued by the Trust or the Trustees, whether of the same or other Portfolio (or Class).
(c) All consideration received by the Trust for the issue or sale of Shares of a particular Portfolio, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange, or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall be held and accounted for separately from the other assets of the Trust and of every other Portfolio and may be referred to herein as "assets belonging to" that Portfolio. The assets belonging to a particular Portfolio shall belong to that Portfolio for all purposes, and to no other Portfolio, subject only to the rights of creditors of that Portfolio. In addition, any assets, income, earnings, profits or funds, or payments and proceeds with respect thereto, which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Portfolio shall be allocated by the Trustees between and among one or more of the Portfolios in such manner as the Trustees, in their sole discretion, deem fair and equitable. Each such allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholders of all Portfolios thereof for all purposes, and such assets, income, earnings, profits, or funds, or payments and proceeds with respect thereto shall be assets belonging to that Portfolio.
(d) Each Class of a Portfolio shall have a proportionate undivided interest (as determined by or at the direction of, or pursuant to authority granted by, the Trustees, consistent with industry practice) ("Proportionate Interest") in the net assets belonging to that Portfolio. References herein to assets, expenses, charges, costs, and reserves "allocable" or "allocated" to a particular Class of a Portfolio shall mean the aggregate amount of such item(s) of the Portfolio multiplied by the Class's Proportionate Interest.
(e) A particular Portfolio shall be charged with the liabilities of that Portfolio, and all expenses, costs, charges and reserves attributable to any particular Portfolio shall be borne by such Portfolio; provided that the Trustees may, in their sole discretion, allocate or authorize the allocation of particular expenses, costs, charges, and/or reserves of a Portfolio to fewer than all the Classes thereof. Class Expenses shall, in all cases, be allocated to the Class for which such Class Expenses were incurred. Any general liabilities, expenses, costs, charges or reserves of the Trust (or any Portfolio) that are not readily identifiable as chargeable to or bearable by any particular Portfolio (or any particular Class) shall be allocated and charged by the Trustees between or among any one or more of the Portfolios (or Classes) in such manner as the Trustees in their sole discretion deem fair and equitable. Each such allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Shareholders of all Portfolios (or Classes) for all purposes. Without limitation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5(e), (i) the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable against the assets of such Portfolio only, and not against the assets of the Trust generally or assets belonging to any other Portfolio, and (ii) none of the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the Trust generally that have not been allocated to a specified Portfolio, or with respect to any other Portfolio, shall be enforceable against the assets of such specified Portfolio. Notice of this contractual limitation on inter-Portfolio liabilities is set forth in the Trust's Certificate of Trust described in Section 1.4, and, accordingly, the statutory provisions of Section 3804 of the Delaware Act relating to limitations on inter-Portfolio liabilities (and the statutory effect under Section 3804 of setting forth such notice in the Certificate of Trust) are applicable to the Trust and each Portfolio.
(f) Except as provided for in Section 2.10, shares redeemed or repurchased by a Portfolio or the Trust shall be deemed to be canceled.
(g) The Trust may issue Shares in fractional denominations of 1/1000th of a Share or integral multiples thereof to the same extent as its whole Shares, and Shares in fractional denominations shall be Shares having proportionately to the respective fractions represented thereby all the rights of whole Shares of the same Portfolio (or Class), including without limitation, the right to vote, the right to receive dividends and distributions and the right to participate upon termination of the Trust or any Portfolio, but excluding the right to receive a certificate representing fractional Shares. All references to Shares in this Agreement shall be deemed to be shares of any or all Portfolios, or Classes thereof, as the context may require. All provisions herein relating to the Trust shall apply equally to each Portfolio of the Trust, and each Class thereof, except as the context otherwise requires.
First Refusal Rights The Company may elect to purchase all (but -------------------- not less than all) of the shares of Executive Stock to be transferred upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by delivering a written notice of such election to Executive and the Investors within 10 days after the Sale Notice has been delivered to the Company. If the Company has not elected to purchase all of the Executive Stock to be transferred, the Investors may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Executive Stock to be transferred upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by delivering written notice of such election to Executive within 10 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the Investors. If more than one Investor elects to purchase the Executive Stock, the shares of Executive Stock to be sold shall be allocated among the Investors pro rata according to the number of shares of Common Stock owned by each Investor on a fully-diluted basis. If neither the Company nor the Investors elect to purchase all of the shares of Executive Stock specified in the Sale Notice, Executive may transfer the shares of Executive Stock specified in the Sale Notice at a price and on terms no more favorable to the transferee(s) thereof than specified in the Sale Notice during the 60-day period immediately following the Authorization Date. Any shares of Executive Stock not transferred within such 60-day period shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph 4(c) upon subsequent transfer. If the Company or any of the Investors have elected to purchase shares of Executive Stock hereunder, the transfer of such shares shall be consummated as soon as practical after the delivery of the election notice(s) to Executive, but in any event within 15 days after the expiration of the Election Period. The Company may pay the purchase price for such shares by offsetting amounts outstanding under the Executive Note issued to the Company hereunder and any other bona fide debts owed by Executive to the Company.
Antidilution Provisions During the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Paragraph 4. In the event that any adjustment of the Exercise Price as required herein results in a fraction of a cent, such Exercise Price shall be rounded up to the nearest cent.

(ii) at any time within thirty (30) days following (a) the date of the Company's delivery to the Holder of the appraisal performed by an independent appraiser at the Company's request in connection with the ESOP that sets forth the per share value of the Common Stock as of September 30, 2009 (the "September 2009 Appraisal"), if the ESOP is still in existence on September 30, 2009 and none of clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of "Current Market Price" in Section 3(c)(ii) below are applicable, or (b) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Effective Date, if the conditions of clause (b) above are not met (in either case, the "First Put/Call Date"), the Company shall have the right to purchase up to fifty percent (50%) of the Warrant from the Holder, and if the Company exercises such right, the Holder shall be required to sell up to fifty percent (50%) of the Warrant to the Company at the Call Price determined in accordance with Section 4(b) below; and
(iii) at any time within thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall have the right to purchase up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Warrant from the Holder, and if the Company exercises such right, the Holder shall be required to sell the Warrant or any portion thereof, as the case may be, to the Company at the Call Price determined in accordance with Section 4(b) below.
Approval Rights So long as SCG Beneficially Owns 25% or more of the Common Shares outstanding, SCG shall have the right (each, an "Approval Right") to approve the following matters as proposed by the Company:
Anti-Dilution Provisions The Exercise Price and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided:
(a) In case the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock as a dividend upon shares of Common Stock or in payment of a dividend thereon, or shall subdivide the number of outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a greater number of shares or shall contract the number of outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be adjusted, effective at the close of business on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the same, to the price (computed to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding prior to such dividend, subdivision or contraction, by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend, subdivision, or contraction.
(b) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume, by written instrument, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase; and such successor corporation agrees to be bound by the provisions of Section 8 hereof with respect to any securities issued pursuant to such consolidation, merger or purchase of assets.
(c) Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant hereto, the number of shares of Common Stock specified in this Warrant shall thereupon evidence the right to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth of a share of Common Stock) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment upon exercise of this Warrant and dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price in effect after such adjustment.
(d) Irrespective of any adjustments of the number or kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price, any warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number of shares of Common Stock and Exercise Price as are stated in similar warrants previously issued.
(e) The Company may, at its sole option, retain the independent public accounting firm regularly retained by the Company, or another firm of independent public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Company's board of directors (the "Board of Directors"), to make any computation required under this section and a certificate signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of any computation made under this section.
(f) Whenever there is an adjustment in the Exercise Price and/or in the number or kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, as provided herein, the Company shall: (i) promptly file in the custody of its Secretary or Assistant Secretary a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the President of the Company and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after such adjustment; and (ii) cause a notice to be sent to the Holder stating that such adjustment has been effected and stating the Exercise Price then in effect and the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
(g) The Exercise Price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall only be adjusted in the manner and upon the conditions heretofore specifically referred to in Subsections 7(a) through 7(f) above.
(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 7 from: (i) options and warrants, and Common Stock issued upon exercise of options and warrants, granted to employees, officers, directors, consultants and other services providers, or pursuant to the Company's stock incentive or stock option plans and employee benefit or compensation plans heretofore or hereafter adopted, (ii) the conversion of convertible securities or derivative securities outstanding on the Issue Date and approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (iii) Common Stock, warrants and options granted to vendors, banks, lenders, and equipment lessors, and other third parties the primary purpose of which is other than capital raising, (iv) in an offering registered under the Securities Act, (v) upon conversion of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, (vi) acquisitions by the Company or its subsidiaries of assets or equity securities of third parties, or (vii) mergers, consolidations, joint ventures, or other business combinations by the Company or any subsidiary with a third party.
